Chapter 742: Chapter 742: Receiving the Award
After the medical conference ended, I returned home, where a celebration dinner had been prepared.
Mengmeng had a couple more drinks, her cheeks flushed and exceptionally charming.
Gu Zhihan’s sexy Adam’s apple couldn’t help but bob twice as he scooped her up horizontally in his arms.
“What are you doing?” Luo Mengmeng uttered, her breath reeking of alcohol as she looked at the man with hazy eyes.
Gu Zhihan lowered his brows and whispered in her ear, “Shower.”
“I’m not showering with you…” Luo Mengmeng struggled to get down from his embrace.
But Gu Zhihan ignored her resistance and strode directly into the bathroom with her in his arms, “Shower together to save water.”
Luo Mengmeng: “…”
No wonder they say the richer people are, the stingier they become!
In the bathroom, a steamy mist enshrouded the two of them.
One could vaguely see the strong and fit man pressing down on the girl…
Luo Mengmeng couldn’t help but yell, “Bastard! Didn’t we agree to just take a shower?”
“Warming up before washing isn’t too late,” Gu Zhihan said seriously.
“…”
Damn!
How can there be such a shameless man in this world!
When it was over, Mengmeng suddenly remembered something very important, “Did you wear a ‘T’?”
Gu Zhihan was silent for a moment, “I forgot…”
In such an exciting moment, who would think of taking precautions.
“Then go get me some medicine,” Luo Mengmeng, who was bathing in the bathtub, suddenly looked up and glared at him.
Gu Zhihan wrapped his arms around her slender waist, “You are a medical scientist after all. Don’t you know the harm that contraceptive pills can do to the body?”
“I do, but what if I become pregnant?” Luo Mengmeng worried.
She already had three babies, there was no need to keep having more.
“Today is your safe day,” Gu Zhihan added.
“Right…”
So, Mengmeng pushed the matter to the back of her mind.
Next, she was busy with rehearsal for the award ceremony, so the incident disappeared like a stone thrown into the sea, completely silenced.
In mid-December, the Q Country Medical Award ceremony took place at the Vienna Concert Hall.
On the day, the concert hall was packed, and the award presentation was broadcast live on various networks and television.
Luo Mengmeng was in the makeup room at the moment.
Today she was wearing a custom-made sea-blue gown, exceptionally elegant and dignified, with her seaweed-like dark hair draped over her shoulders, adorned with a forehead chain of the same color. From a distance, she looked like a mermaid that had just leaped out of the sea, stunning and eye-catching.
“Mommy, I’m nervous!” Erbao suddenly exclaimed, hugging her arm.
Xiaobao criticized, “It’s not you going up to receive the award; what are you nervous about?”
“I’m just nervous.” Erbao was breaking out in a sweat.
“Baby, don’t be nervous, or you’ll make mommy nervous too,” Luo Mengmeng said helplessly, laughing as she reached out to pat his head and soothe his current mood.
Well, here she was, about to go on stage and not nervous at all, yet he was getting nervous on her behalf.
At that moment, they were called onto the stage.
“Now, let us invite this year’s Q Country Medical Award recipient from China, Ms. Luo Mengmeng, and Dr. Carl from Q Country, to come up on stage and receive the award. These two successfully researched a medicine against the Despair virus last year, giving many children born with this congenital disease a new lease on life, making a tremendous contribution to the nation and society. Now, let’s welcome them on stage with a round of applause…” the host said with passion.
At that, thunderous applause erupted from the audience.
In the waiting room, Dr. Carl got to his feet, smiling at Luo Mengmeng, “It’s time for us to go.”
