Chapter 415 Attack again
Meng Ke didn't expect Qingyou to come back so soon. He came back before the dinner with Gongsun Jin started in the afternoon.
Thinking of a possibility, Meng Ke ran out of the villa excitedly to greet him.
Adjutant Qingyou personally escorted the person back, and Meng Ke went over to support the person.
Qingyou found Mengke's expression a little funny: "She's just pregnant, so she's not that fragile."
Meng Ke didn't listen: "I have experience, just listen to me, dear!"
The adjutant was about to get into the car to go back after sending the person away, but when he heard this, he slipped and almost fell.
The noise behind was so loud that they both turned around at the same time. Seeing the adjutant's embarrassed look, Qingyou and Mengke looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.
The adjutant was extremely embarrassed and tried to make amends by turning around and explaining, "The area near the door is too slippery. I'll have the robot clean it later."
Seeing this attempt to cover up something that only made it more obvious, the two people who were originally laughing secretly couldn't help but burst out laughing.
The adjutant also felt that the previous explanation was worse than no explanation at all, and said, "Don't forget to treat me to the full moon banquet!"
He left in a hurry.
In the afternoon, Luo Tian did not come out of the laboratory. When Gongsun Jin arrived, he saw Meng Ke in front of him, with Ouyang Kong and Qingyou on his left and right to greet him personally.
He greeted the three people calmly, and his thorough courtesy made Meng Ke think of Yan Yue all of a sudden.
When Meng Ke first met Yan Yue, he had just learned interstellar etiquette, and Yan Yue's behavior was as perfect as in a textbook.
"The Gongsun family signed a military order to seize the Zerg project. I thought they didn't even have time to rest, but I didn't expect they even had time to come out for dinner."
If Ouyang Kong wants to make friends with others, then what he says will definitely make people feel comfortable both physically and mentally. But if he doesn't want others to have a good life, then his words will become a knife and hit people where it hurts.
Gongsun Jin looked like aloof, exiled immortals. Facing Ouyang Kong's provocation, he responded humbly and politely, "Councilor Ouyang, you're joking. The Zerg project wasn't stolen by the Ou Gongsun family. It was led by my father. The project is full of the Alliance's precious scientific research talent. Even without me, the research can still proceed smoothly."
Meng Ke felt that it was pointless to argue with each other like this, so she clapped her hands to interrupt the two people's sharp confrontation: "The meal is ready. I believe you are tired after a day's work. Let's eat first."
Ouyang Kong's identity did not require him to flatter Gongsun Jin, but he did not want Meng Ke to have much contact with Gongsun Jin, so he gave Qingyou a look to ask him to receive him, and he put his arm around Meng Ke and walked straight to the prepared dining table.
"Mr. Gongsun, please!"
This is a guest invited by his wife. He heard that it would be beneficial for his wife's spiritual training, so of course he would not ignore him.
Gongsun Jin sighed seemingly unintentionally, "General Qingyou has a good temper!"
This is not a compliment, it is an attempt to sow discord and a mockery.
How could Qingyou not hear it? She smiled politely and said, "When Mr. Gongsun has a wife, he will understand that doing anything for his wife will be sweet."
Gongsun Jin choked, his eyes dark, and his words were harsh: "You may not know that some of the news on the Internet is true, such as my engagement with Master Meng."
"Really? I've seen that news too. It turns out to be true. It's really a pity. I guess Mr. Gongsun didn't realize how good Keke was at the time, so that's why he divorced her."
Gongsun Jin's face turned even worse. What did Qingyou mean? Was she saying he was blind?! Humph!
"There's a rumor going around that Mr. Qing's compatibility with Master Meng is less than 90%, the lowest of Master Meng's four husbands, which is why they've never had children. While our Gongsun family isn't good at other things, we do have some expertise in conceiving newborns. If Mr. Qing needs it, he can contact our Gongsun family's pregnancy and infant team. For Master Meng's sake, it's free."
Qingyou touched her belly and said, "Thank you for your concern! But it's not necessary."
What does that mean? Gongsun Jin wasn't stupid either, and she understood instantly: "Are you pregnant?"
"Ok!"
Qingyou's voice was filled with happiness, but Gongsun Jin felt a pang of sadness when hearing it.
If he had not broken off his engagement with Meng Ke, he would have had a lot of children. Even if the Gongsun family acted well, it would not be impossible for him to become Meng Ke's only husband.
But now even if he wants to remarry, it is extremely difficult for him to become one of Meng Ke’s five husbands.
"Congratulations!"
"Thank you!"
Even though Gongsun Jin was in a bad mood, he didn't show it at all, and the atmosphere was harmonious during the meal.
As the four of them stood up and left the table, Gongsun Jin looked at Ouyang Kong's hand on Meng Ke's waist and said, "Councilor Ouyang and Master Meng have such a good relationship!"
Meng Ke raised her eyebrows, wondering what this meant. Seeing Gongsun Jin turn to look at Qingyou after he said this, she probably understood.
What a joke! How can I let an outsider bully my husband at home?
Meng Ke stretched out her hand to Qingyou: "You should walk slower when you're pregnant. Come! I'll hold your hand."
"it is good!"
Qingyou smiled and walked over to hold his wife's hand.
It seems that Gongsun Jin's visit this time is also beneficial.
The smile in Gongsun Jin's eyes disappeared instantly, and he looked away from the two people's interlocked hands.
"I heard from Keke that Mr. Gongsun is willing to share some methods to strengthen the spiritual body. I wonder if it is true?"
"Of course! That's why I came here for the visit."
"Mr. Gongsun, you are too polite. You have helped us, so we should have invited you to a banquet. How can we say that you are visiting us? If other noble families hear about this, they will mistakenly think that our Meng family is ungrateful."
Meng Ke patted Qingyou's hand to interrupt the pleasantries: "Can I ask what method you mentioned to strengthen the spiritual body? If the Gongsun family has any requests, you can also raise them first."
At the celebration banquet held for the Zhuzhu team earlier, all the teachers invited by Xiaoyu were bigwigs in the alliance. Meng Ke learned from several elders that the Gongsun family's method of strengthening spiritual bodies is quite unique, but because of the spirit of the contract, they are not convenient to say it.
This time Gongsun Jin took the initiative to bring it up, and Meng Ke was quite curious. If she had the chance, she really wanted to give it a try.
Gongsun Jin glanced at Ouyang Kong and Qing You and asked, "Can you let them go first?"
Ouyang Kong pinched Meng Ke's fingers. He didn't want to take advantage of the Gongsun family, but he was worried about his wife staying with a man who was obviously coveting her.
Meng Ke felt the force on her fingers and hesitated. "Ouyang Kong has also developed a spiritual body. Can he listen to it together? Don't worry! If the conditions proposed by the Gongsun family include resources, I will pay double according to the rules."
Gongsun Jin has no shortage of resources; he just wants to be alone with Meng Ke. "The Gongsun family has a partnership with the Ouyang family. If Councillor Ouyang needs anything, he can have the family leader talk to my father. My father is in charge of all this right now."
Ouyang Kong also knew a thing or two about this. He knew that Gongsun Jin wanted to be alone with his wife. If he didn't leave, Gongsun Jin would definitely not tell him, and then the meal his wife treated him to today would be a waste.
"Okay! Let's go to the study and talk!"
It's his own home, there's no reason for him to stand up and give up his seat.
Meng Ke brought Gongsun Jin into the study and suddenly felt something flying towards her. The next second, the thing lay on something that looked like a tennis racket and stopped moving.
Gongsun Jin came over with a worried look on his face and asked, "What's going on? What is this?"
Meng Ke sneered in her heart. If she hadn't reacted quickly, the bug would have flown into her body.
"Shouldn't I be asking you what this is?"
Gongsun Jin was a little bit incredulous: "You doubt me?"
"Shouldn't I doubt you?"
Gongsun Jin's face was filled with sadness. "That's right! I'm an outsider, so it's normal for you to suspect me. If that's the case, you can investigate it yourself."
After saying that, he opened his hands, looking ready to do whatever you want.
Meng Ke was almost amused by his fearless attitude. He knew that she needed help from someone, so how could he keep holding on to this matter without any evidence?
"I was just joking, Mr. Gongsun, don't take it to heart. By the way, have you participated in the Zerg research project? Can you tell what kind of bug this is?"
Gongsun Jin shook his head. "This bug has turned black and blurry, so I can't tell what it is. If you need it, you can give me the paddle and I'll take it back and see if I can analyze it."
"No need! Let's talk about strengthening our spiritual bodies. Please take a seat!"
