Professor Zhang didn't really mind the delay of a day or two. In fact, upon hearing what Chi Wan said, his immediate reaction was delight. "Staying a couple more days is great! Come on, come on, let's head to the experimental field and check on our last batch of seedlings."
He had a feeling that if Chi Wan really did go to Beijing City, she might not be back for some time. Her staying for a couple more days meant she could help him cultivate several more batches of experimental seedlings.
Seeing Professor Zhang's eagerness, Chi Wan smiled and agreed.
However, it wouldn't be convenient for others to see this, so Professor Zhang decided to give everyone in the lab half a day off.
Although no one understood why, seeing the professor's secretive demeanor, they guessed he might have a new discovery he wasn't ready to publicize. They handed their ongoing work over to Zhou Huaijin and left to enjoy the rare time off.
