CHAPTER 793: CHAPTER 793: IF YOU’RE SICK, TAKE MEDICINE

Both of them saw each other, and Kang Li, out of politeness, naturally did not pretend not to see. She stopped two or three steps away from Su Man, smiled, and said, "Comrade Shen has been about three or four months along, hasn’t she?"

Glancing at Shen Yun’s obviously bulging belly, Kang Li’s expression was filled with goodwill, but Shen Yun responded coldly and indifferently, grunting "Hmm" and said, "This is a research institute, not a place where just any Tom, Dick, or Harry can come."

With these words, Shen Yun, with a hint of sarcasm, added, "You’ve been married to Professor Luo for more than two years now, haven’t you? Why is there still no happy news? Could it be that you are a hen that doesn’t lay eggs? I just happened to overhear this—apparently, the old lady in your country family says this about her daughter-in-law when she doesn’t see any grandchildren after a few years!"

Stroking her protruding belly, Shen Yun’s eyes and brows betrayed a touch of smugness: "Do you think my belly is doing well? First, it was my Gian, and now I’m pregnant with a second child; sometimes I think it’s so helpless. I had no intention of getting pregnant again, but it just happened. If you count the time, I’ve been with Director Xiao even longer than you’ve been with Professor Luo."

"So, Comrade Shen is just a hen! I just realized that, sorry, only chickens lay eggs, we are not the same species, I wouldn’t compare myself with a chicken."

What kind of person is this?

She had stopped out of politeness to greet her, but could this person be a mad dog? Being unaware of what politeness is, not only did she mock her but also insinuated that her Professor Luo was inadequate... A mad dog indeed, she had now witnessed it!

"Who did you call a hen?"

Shen Yun’s complexion instantly turned ugly.

"Wasn’t it you who said it yourself? What, does Comrade Shen have a fish memory?"

Kang Li maintained her smile throughout, and seeing this, Shen Yun found it exceedingly irritating. Unable to restrain herself, she repeated her earlier insult to Kang Li: "You’ve been married to Professor Luo for over two years and still haven’t gotten pregnant. Didn’t I rightly call you a hen that doesn’t lay eggs?"

Kang Li laughed, "Listen, isn’t that you admitting you’re a hen yourself? Why are you slandering me here?"

"You..."

Pointing at Kang Li, Shen Yun’s face became even more unsightly: "You have no shame!"

"Comrade Shen, you’re being so absurd, how am I shameless?"

Kang Li crossed her arms, her expression casually serene, her eyes as still as a calm lake, emotionless, staring straight into Shen Yun’s eyes.

"You just have no shame!"

Such a nice girl, marrying who knows what for a second marriage, she couldn’t believe there was no ulterior motive.

"Comrade Shen, your vocabulary is really poor. It really makes me wonder how you managed in college." Saying this, Kang Li took a step, preparing to leave, but suddenly, Shen Yun burst out, "You are not a good person, marrying Professor Luo, you must be planning to steal his research achievements!"

"If you’re sick, take some medicine."

So boring!

Director Song and two other leaders from the institute just happened to walk by and heard what Shen Yun said, their expressions involuntarily changed.

"Li Bao, when did you get here?"

Seeing Kang Li looking over, Director Song immediately adjusted his facial expression and asked with a smile.

"About two o’clock."

Kang Li responded.

Director Song introduced Kang Li to the two comrades beside him: "This is Kang Li, Luo Yanqing’s spouse, and the goddaughter recognized by me and Comrade Qi."

Kang Li: "Hello to both comrades."

"It should be us greeting this little comrade. You are the pride of our nation."
