444 Phantom Wolf Prioritizes His Girlfriend Over His Friend
“Is that Chief Engineer Wu?”
“I haven’t seen him for a month. He’s gotten that handsome?”
“Oh, my God, he’s so good-looking and tall. Most of all, he’s so talented!”
“How did he suddenly become so young? Did they really develop a life-prolonging drug?”
The topic of conversation soon turned to the Human Life Extension Potion.
After all, as scientists, they could make observations and draw conclusions about its existence.
“I think he must have injected himself with that drug.”
“That’s amazing. I wonder when I’ll get to use the medicine that Chief Engineer Wu developed.”
The female scientists discussed excitedly.
Meanwhile, Wu Mo suddenly discovered something that shocked him.
Phantom Wolf was holding the hand of a female scientist?
This experienced bachelor was attracting the opposite sex?
The muscular Phantom Wolf before him was holding a young female scientist’s hand.
Wu Mo could not help but laugh at the scene.
“This is too much. He’s almost 50 years old, but he’s dating such a young girl.
“This is a little…”
The thought that he was robbing the cradle entered Wu Mo’s mind.
The scientist looked like an intern because her badge was of a different color.
The official employee’s badge was red, while the intern’s badge was blue.
The girl was not tall, and she had short black hair. Being only a little over 1.6 meters tall, she displayed a cute height difference when compared to the tall Phantom Wolf.
If she told him that she was Phantom Wolf’s daughter, Wu Mo would believe her without hesitation.
Wu Mo quickly approached Phantom Wolf and patted him on the shoulder.
“Yo, Brother, I’ve only been away for a month, and you’ve already found yourself a beautiful girlfriend?”
Wu Mo usually did not hold back with his old friends. In addition, both of them had the personality of a soldier; they were straightforward and honest.
When Phantom Wolf heard the word “girlfriend,” he could not help but scratch his head awkwardly.
The girl next to him lowered her head shyly.
“Old Wu, stop spouting nonsense. She hasn’t become my girlfriend yet.”
Wu Mo almost laughed out loud.
Phantom Wolf, who looked as resolute as steel, was actually shy?
Moreover, the word “yet” meant that their relationship had progressed to “more than friendly, but not yet in love.”
Most importantly, the girl beside him did not deny it. She only patted Phantom Wolf on the shoulder.
“Don’t say that. You’re so shy.”
Wu Mo was not the only one who found it funny.
Their other female colleagues could not help but laugh.
Phantom Wolf was not bad. He was a senior colonel, and he had the potential to be promoted.
After he received the Human Life Extension Potion, his looks had also improved greatly. Although he was not as impressive as Wu Mo, he was still a catch.
At the same time, Phantom Wolf was frank enough that he did not play tricks with people.
“Let’s forget this for now. Since the project is over, I have to go back.
“Would you like to tag along?”
When Wu Mo asked the question, he had already predicted the answer.
Wu Mo had not fallen into the whirlpool that was love.
However, Phantom Wolf could no longer escape it.
It was very likely that he would not leave.
As expected, Phantom Wolf replied, “I’m on vacation now. My superior heard that I was in a relationship and immediately approved a five-month leave so that I can work on my relationship!
“I’ll be accompanying Little Zhang for the next five months.
“You can go back first, Old Wu. I’ll deal with some personal matters here!”
Wu Mo laughed it off.
“Alright, I won’t disturb you anymore. Goodbye!”
Wu Mo turned around and left.
…
Wu Mo continued sighed as he sat in the car.
‘Phantom Wolf actually values his girlfriend over his friends. How unexpected!
‘Forget it, I’m not going worry about him. I’ll hand in the project first.’
Soon, the car arrived at the airport.
Wu Mo and Xu Wanqing, who had changed into formal attire, boarded a private plane and headed to the old chief’s headquarters.
The old chief had been informed of their arrival in advance, and there would be a meeting to discuss future development. At the same time, this would allow others to witness the miraculous effects of Life First.
The plane flew extremely fast, and in just a dozen hours, it had crossed more than half of China.
After they landed at their destination airport, they saw a jeep waiting for them as soon as they walked out.
Wu Mo and Xu Wanqing quickly got in.
“Huh?”
“Leader Wu, how did you become so young?”
Hearing the soldier’s question, Wu Mo smiled and replied, “Well, I used something special, but I can’t tell you the details because it’s confidential.”
With that, the soldier did not ask for further details.
“Alright then, I’ll speed up to the headquarters!”
The jeep sped up, and they arrived at the familiar but also unfamiliar headquarters about two hours later. They reached just before dinnertime.
Wu Mo could not wait to get out of the car, and he was soon led to the old chief’s office.
Thump! Thump! Thump!
Someone knocked on the office door.
The door was quickly opened, and the old chief’s personal guard appeared before him.
“Leader Wu, you’re here.
“The chief has been waiting for a long time.”
In the past, the old chief’s personal guard did not rank lower than Wu Mo.
However, the guard knew how to judge the situation. From the smile on the old chief’s face when he talked about Wu Mo, the guard knew that he could not compare to Wu Mo.
The old chief’s words had also strengthened his resolve to get close to Wu Mo.
Therefore, whether it was a call or a meeting, the guard was very respectful toward Wu Mo.
Wu Mo and Xu Wanqing quickly sat down.
The old chief swept his gaze across the room. He was clearly shocked by Wu Mo’s youthfulness.
“This is amazing. You’re actually back in your 20s, just like the first time I saw you.”
“Yes, Life First has made me 17 years younger. I feel full of energy and strength now.”
Wu Mo exuded confidence and heroism.
In response, the old chief nodded in satisfaction.
“Hahaha, I’m eager to try it as well. I planned to retire at first, but now, it seems that I have to work for another 30 years.”
The old chief would naturally be the first to use Life First.
Even though he was not a frontline combatant, as an officer who commanded the frontline, he still needed to be strengthened.
“Chief, what’s the main agenda of our meeting?”
“The agenda is as follows.”
“First, we’ll be commending you. I didn’t expect you to suddenly develop Life First. It’s made it more difficult for us to commend you.
“But that’s not the main point.
“We need to discuss the direction of future development. I originally had reservations about biological research, but after seeing the changes in you and Phantom Wolf, I’ve decided to develop it further.”
“Our discussion is not about whether to develop, but how to develop.”
Wu Mo immediately became serious.
This meeting would determine the future of China to a large extent.
One aspect of that would be the development of biotechnology and its equipment.
