"Mema doesn't have the machine?" Gu Ming deliberately picked a flaw.
Chu Xi glanced at him with seductive eyes, lifted her perfectly curved chin, and slightly smiled, skillfully turning the tables, "Mema does have it, but to use it, one needs to write an application report. She is naturally averse to hassle, especially in medical research where she prefers to work alone without collaborating with other experts. So upon finding out that Rui City also had the same equipment, she came running here. Assistant Gu, does this explanation satisfy you?"
Gu Ming was at a loss for words and turned his gaze away, stiffly saying, "Miss Chu loves to joke too much. I am not in a position to be satisfied or dissatisfied, I was just curious and asked."
Chu Xi made a sound in acknowledgment, chuckled, and said, "Assistant Gu has been looking at me strangely since I got into the car today, I thought I had offended you somehow. Seems I was overthinking it."
