Chapter 305 - 305: Finally Meeting After Running Around



Five kilometers wasn’t very far. It took just about ten minutes to reach the entrance of Northwestern Polytechnical University (NWPU). Wang Feng circled around the NWPU entrance roundabout and found a spot to park his car by the roadside.

“Boss, should we go inside?”

“Inside? Why would we go inside? We’re not familiar with the place, and if we accidentally wander into some top-secret laboratory, they might mistake us for thieves and have us arrested. We’d be humiliated! What should we do then?”

“What should we do? We’re not familiar with Northwestern Polytechnical University.”

“What to do? Let’s go find Professor Lan openly. If that doesn’t work, we have Professor Lan’s phone number, so we can call him directly when the time comes. There’s no need to make it difficult. Besides, it’s not early now, and even if we were to go, we would do so tomorrow. Alright, let’s go find a place to eat. Our stomachs are protesting!”

Zhou Chao raised the car window and leaned back in his seat, suggesting they should go find a place to eat first.

Wang Feng drove around for a bit and eventually settled on a roadside restaurant near the Big Wild Goose Pagoda.

Zhou Chao got to enjoy his biangbiang noodles and roujiamo (Chinese hamburger), while Wang Feng was still struggling with his roujiamo. He watched Zhou Chao eat with great satisfaction, his hand movements revealing his joy.

“Boss, this lamb roujiamo is really hard to tear apart!”

“Just get used to it. Look at how quickly others can do it. At this rate, you won’t even finish a roujiamo before it gets cold!” Zhou Chao finished a roujiamo in just a few bites.

“You’re right. These local roujiamo are the best. They taste nothing like the ones from elsewhere.”

By the time Zhou Chao finished most of his meal, Wang Feng’s lamb noodles were finally ready.

Wang Feng, who had been eagerly waiting, began eating with gusto. In less than five minutes, he had devoured a whole bowl.

“Take it easy. No one’s going to snatch it from you. Why are you in such a hurry?” Zhou Chao teased, watching Wang Feng devour his food.

“Boss, you’ve already finished. I want to finish quickly so you don’t have to wait too long!” Wang Feng wiped his mouth with a napkin and smiled earnestly.

Zhou Chao chuckled. Although Wang Feng could be a bit simple at times, he was genuinely good-hearted.

“Are you full now? If not, order something else to eat!”

“Yeah, sure!”

Wang Feng then turned to the waitress and shouted, “Bring us two more roujiamo!”

By the time they had finished their meal, it was nearly 6 PM. Zhou Chao originally planned to visit the Big Wild Goose Pagoda’s night market, but considering they had things to attend to the next day, he decided to save the sightseeing for later.

Back at the hotel, they each retreated to their rooms. Zhou Chao immediately turned on his computer to gather some basic information about Professor Lanling.

Unfortunately, online information about him was scarce, and what was available was outdated. Zhou Chao briefly considered using his hacking skills to dig deeper but decided against it, not wanting to risk causing trouble. He chose to abandon that idea.

“Well, it looks like we’ll have to try calling him. I wonder if it will work.” He knew that most researchers didn’t bring their phones with them when conducting experiments. Glancing at the time, it was already 6:30 PM.

“At this hour, Professor Lan should be off work. Should 1 give him a call?” Without further ado, he picked up the phone on the table and dialed.

“Doo-doo-doo!” The phone rang, but no one answered on the other end. Regrettably, Zhou Chao had to give up.

“It seems like we’ll have to go to the university tomorrow,” he said with a sigh, shutting down his computer and heading towards the bedroom.

The next morning, Zhou Chao woke up early, while Wang Feng had gone out to buy breakfast, claiming he found a recommended restaurant for tourists to visit online.

“Wow, this place is really good. The roujiamo here is much tastier than the one we had yesterday, and it’s packed with meat!”

Hearing the compliment, Wang Feng scratched his head sheepishly.

After breakfast, Zhou Chao quickly freshened up. It was already 9:30 AM, and he felt it was time to go.

“Let’s go to Northwestern Polytechnical University!” As they left the hotel, they got into the Phantom. Zhou Chao thought Wang Feng would use the navigation system, but instead, Wang Feng started the car and drove off.

“Don’t you need the navigation to find the way?”

“I know the way. I studied it last night, so 1 know how to get there.”

“Not bad. You’re doing your homework in advance now!” Zhou Chao complimented, and Wang Feng smiled before focusing on driving.

When they arrived at the entrance of Northwestern Polytechnical University, they were stopped by a security guard.

Zhou Chao thought there might be some security checks, but the guard checked some information and allowed them to pass, which surprised him a bit.

Wang Feng drove into the campus, slowing down as they approached a building. After a short while, he parked the car in front of a large building.

“We’ve arrived, boss!”

Zhou Chao leaned out to see and realized they were in front of the office building of the College of Engineering.

“How did you know this location? Don’t tell me you found it online too?”

“Well, I did some research last night and memorized the route!”

Wang Feng grinned, looking a bit sheepish. Zhou Chao didn’t say anything but patted his arm instead.

“Let’s go!” After saying that, Zhou Chao took the lead and headed towards the office building.

As soon as they entered the office building, Zhou Chao stopped two girls who looked like students.

“Hello, may I ask if you know where Professor Lan Ling is?” The two girls, upon seeing Zhou Chao’s striking appearance, as if he had stepped out of a manga, were momentarily stunned.

“Ahem!”

“Oh, I’m sorry, Senior. Are you asking about Professor Lan Ling? He’s not at the campus; he’s at Chang’an Campus!”

“Chang’an Campus? He’s not here?”

“Well, he’s mostly at Chang’an Campus. Occasionally, he comes here to give us lectures.”

“Oh, 1 see. Thank you!” Zhou Chao smiled at the two girls and continued outside.

“Xiaoling, that senior is so handsome. Why don’t you ask him for his contact information?”

“Forget it, I’m not worthy. Didn’t you see the person behind him? He’s tall and sturdy, probably his bodyguard. This handsome guy is most likely from a wealthy family.”

“Handsome and rich, isn’t this like the male lead in a TV drama?”

“Stop daydreaming, let’s go!”

Once Zhou Chao and Wang Feng left, they got back in the car and headed to Northwestern Polytechnical University’s Chang’an Campus, which was quite a distance away.

By the time they arrived at Chang’an Campus, it was already noon.

“Boss, why don’t you just have Zhou Jilong call him and arrange a meeting?

There’s no need to come all the way here; it’s time-consuming and exhausting.”

“You don’t understand. He’s an academician of the Academy of Engineering. Do you think you can just use money to order someone like him around? For capable individuals like Professor Lan Ling, we should approach them with respect and not always try to solve problems with money. Besides, we’re trying to recruit him, so we should at least show some courtesy.”

“Boss, I don’t know much about these things, but I’m sure you’re right.” As they talked, their car had already entered Chang’an Campus, and they found a parking spot to park the car.

Zhou Chao took out his phone from his pocket and dialed Professor Lan Ling’s number.

“Ring, ring, ring…”

Just as Zhou Chao was about to hang up, a deep and hoarse voice came from the other end.

n

Helio, who’s this?”

Upon hearing the voice from his phone, Zhou Chao’s face lit up, and he quickly said, “Professor Lan Ling, hello, I’m a friend of Zhou Jilong. I’d like to discuss something with you.”

“A friend of Zhou Jilong? Lao Zhou gave you my number? It seems like you have an unusual relationship with him. I’m about to have lunch at the Second Canteen. If you haven’t eaten yet and are interested, why don’t you join me for a meal?”

“I haven’t eaten yet, Professor Lan Ling. I’d be honored!”

“Alright, see you at the Second Canteen!” Lan Ling hung up the phone.

“Yes!” Zhou Chao couldn’t help but clap his hands in excitement.

“Let’s go to the Second Canteen!”

Upon hearing this, Wang Feng quickly took out his phone and opened the navigation app. They drove to the Second Canteen, and along the way, the Phantom attracted the attention of many people. When they parked the car not far from the canteen, Zhou Chao felt the curious gazes of onlookers.

As soon as Zhou Chao got out of the car, he noticed that many students who were having their meals stopped and turned their gaze towards him. Some even discreetly took out their phones and started snapping pictures.

Zhou Chao didn’t pay much attention to it. He closed the car door and walked towards the canteen.

As soon as they entered the canteen, Zhou Chao was stunned.

“This canteen is too big. It’s like looking for a needle in a haystack,” Zhou Chao muttered as he saw hundreds of people eating.

With no other option, he took out his phone and called Lan Ling.

The phone rang twice before it was answered.

“Have you arrived at the Second Canteen? Come to the second-floor Yaxuan Pavilion; I’m waiting for you here!” Without waiting for Zhou Chao to say anything, Lan Ling hung up the phone.

“I didn’t expect Professor Lan Ling to have such a personality,” Zhou Chao said with a faint smile as he led Wang Feng towards the second floor.

“Yaxuan Pavilion! This is it!” Zhou Chao gently knocked on the door and pushed it open.

As soon as he entered, he saw a middle-aged man with gray hair but a determined demeanor sipping tea.

“Oh, you’re the one who called me? I didn’t expect you to be so young and handsome. Come in and have a seat!” Lan Ling was a bit surprised when he saw Zhou Chao for the first time, but for someone like him who had experienced many ups and downs, it was nothing.

“Sorry for the interruption, sir!” Zhou Chao walked in with Wang Feng.

Lan Ling saw Wang Feng behind Zhou Chao, and there was a moment of surprise on his face, but it quickly disappeared.

“I don’t know your name.”

“My name is Zhou, Zhou Chao. You can call me Xiao Chao, Professor Lan.”

“Do you have any business with me, and what’s your relationship with Zhou Jilong?”

Zhou Chao didn’t expect Lan Ling to be so direct. He paused for a moment before speaking, “Zhou Jilong is currently the director of a research institute under my command. I’ve come here to see if 1 can recruit Professor Lan to work at my company.”

“Lao Zhou works under you? You’re quite exceptional at a young age. Since Lao Zhou is your subordinate, you should have heard from him that I’m only interested in research projects. I’m afraid you’ve made this trip in vain.”

“Lan Lao, would you mind hearing more about the research 1 want you to work on?” Zhou Chao sipped his tea and looked at Lan Ling with a smile.

“Oh, I’m interested to know more.”

“It’s about lithography systems..”
