Chapter 785 Best Friend



Chapter 785 Best Friend

Everyone cheered upon hearing this, but after their initial excitement subsided, someone asked, "What's the difference between then and now?"

amount……

Old Xu paused for a moment and said, "Of course it's different. Although the work is still the same, it's become a high-end department by becoming a research institute."

Everyone: "..." So it's just a name that sounds cool?

No, nothing has changed for them.

A moment later, Old Xu burst into laughter again, saying, "I'm not kidding you anymore. This isn't just a simple name change. First of all, your administrative rank has changed, and your benefits will be greatly improved. From now on, you'll receive a substantial project bonus for every project you complete."

Furthermore, we have substantial research funding. You've been complaining about our inadequate equipment, right? You always seem unable to secure good equipment. Things won't be so troublesome anymore. Applying for equipment will be much easier for us in the future.”

Putting everything else aside, the last point alone was incredibly exciting for everyone.

God knows how frustrated they are with this pile of old stuff. It breaks down every few days, and running a data run can wear them out. They could lie in a chair and take a nap and still not finish the run. It's a huge waste of their time and passion.

This is even more exciting for them than a pay raise.

……

After get off work, Yi Yunshuo left with Fu Huaiyi. He heard that Fu Huaiyi had moved to a new house, which was very beautiful, and he had to go and see it.

After reading it... "Huaiyi, can I stay for a few days?"

Fu Huaiyi: "You have nowhere to stay?"

“I have a place to stay, but I’ve never lived in such a beautiful house before. Even my sister’s villa abroad isn’t this beautiful. Can you let me benefit from it?”

Fu Huaiyi said with disdain, "I have a wife and children. What's the point of you moving in?"

"I am your half-brother, you can't just abandon your own brother after you have a wife and children."

"Tsk, they've got some nerve."

That's what he said, but Fu Huaiyi still went to ask Lin Yuyao for advice.

"I don't make the decisions for this family. As long as your sister Lin agrees, there's no problem."

Yi Yunshuo laughed and said, "Of course I agree. Sister Lin is my half-sister."

Lin Yuyao heard this from downstairs. She looked up at the person coming down and smiled, "Since you are my half-brother, you can stay here. Don't just stay for a few days, stay until you don't want to stay anymore."

"Sigh, my sister is still the best to me."

Of course, both of them understood that these were just polite words; he would only stay for one night at most, and that would be enough.

There were rooms upstairs and downstairs, more than enough to accommodate everyone. Yi Yunshuo randomly picked a guest room, and Lin Yuyao arranged for the housekeeper to help tidy it up.

That evening, Fu Huaiyi and Yi Yunshuo sat on the rooftop terrace drinking and stargazing, and they also discussed personal matters.

"My child is already running around everywhere. Almost everyone in our generation is married. It seems like... you're the only one left, right? What are your plans?"

Yi Yunshuo smiled and said, "I don't really have any plans."

"Your parents must be worried, right? You're practically an old bachelor now."

Yi Yunshuo's smile froze.

"What are you saying? What do you mean by 'old bachelor'? I'm a single aristocrat."

"Okay, when are you going to end your single life?"

"I don't know either." Yi Yunshuo sighed as he returned to reality. "My family has introduced me to a few people before, but none of them were suitable. I don't want to date someone from my hometown."

"Then let's look here."

Yi Yunshuo shook his head. "Two years ago, I also met with the young actors that Sister Lin introduced to me, but they weren't suitable either."

"This isn't right, that isn't right, so tell me where is right?"

"I don't know either, but... it just doesn't feel right."

"What does it feel like?"

"I can't explain it." He looked completely bewildered when he thought about this question.

After a moment, Yi Yunshuo suddenly said, "I might as well find someone from within our own ranks. People like us will probably have more to talk about."

"In our department... cough cough, there aren't many women in our research institute. Everyone your age is married, and there isn't a single one."

"And there are also new graduates."

"Come on, you're so much older than them, how can you be so shameless?"

"What can I do? I'm getting old. Kids my age are old enough to run errands. I can only keep looking for younger people."

That... seems to be true.

Yi Yunshuo suddenly thought it was a good idea. His eyes lit up and he said excitedly, "If we both work at the research institute, can each of us get an apartment? That way, we'll have two apartments."

Fu Huaiyi: "..." Is this all the ambition you have?

"If you want to find someone on the inside, then you shouldn't have taken the house so early. You need to find someone first, and then the two of you can take the bigger one together, so that your parents can move in and help you take care of the children in the future. You have a two-bedroom house now, where will your parents live in the future?"

"Tsk tsk." Yi Yunshuo looked at him with disdain. "You really are something else. Let me tell you, young people shouldn't live with their parents. There's a generation gap between the two generations. If they live together, they'll either feel uncomfortable or they might even fight. So it's best if they live separately."

Fu Huaiyi: "Where did you learn that kind of philosophy?"

"Foreigners don't live with their parents, so they don't have as many mother-in-law/daughter-in-law conflicts as we do."

Oh, so he studied abroad.

She thought to herself that he hadn't always said that. He used to spout that married women have no home, that men are the breadwinners and women are homemakers, and that women should stay home to have children, do housework, and serve their in-laws.

Now look what's happened. Since he went abroad to study, he doesn't even know where his wife is, and this filial son has already separated his parents from him.

Fu Huaiyi found it amusing, but he held back.

Then Yi Yunshuo said, "You think you're a really bad person? You don't even live with the elderly yourself, but you're still encouraging me to live with them."

"How can that be the same? My wife earns money, we have three nannies and a personal driver. What about you? If you don't have your parents come to help take care of the kids, who are you planning to have?"

"You...you just found a rich wife, so I can find a rich wife too."

"Didn't you want to find someone who just graduated? They only make a few dollars a month."

Yi Yunshuo: "I'm not looking anymore, can't I just find a rich woman?"

"Rich women are everywhere, you think you can just find one whenever you want?"

"me……"

"Besides, rich women all want someone young and strong. You're an old bachelor, what rich woman would want you?"

"I...I..." He was furious.

Unable to win an argument, Yi Yunshuo slumped back into his chair like a deflated balloon.

He put down the cup and sighed, "I don't even know whose family my wife is with yet, why think so much? These things can't be forced, let fate decide."

The two chatted casually, from major life events to gossip about what had happened around them in the past two years, and then to Yi Yunshuo's experiences abroad.

There are so many people lagging behind, which makes them very anxious.
