Yet her day-to-day demeanor didn't make it seem like she had a serious illness, and so none of her colleagues at the Research Institute suspected a thing.
Only a small group of people knew the truth.
At the strong request of Fu Yue and Ye Shengtao, these people naturally wouldn't speak about it to others.
Thus, all of the colleagues at the Research Institute thought that they were returning to B City after the project ended, but no one thought that they were actually going back for treatment.
Fu Yue first let out a chuckle, then explained with a smile: "We're leaving for home this afternoon, right? Our daughter was worried, so she decided to bring her boyfriend to pick us up."
Upon hearing that it was the couple's oft-mentioned daughter who personally came to pick them up, the colleagues sent their congratulations, some even expressing regret amidst their words.
"Professor Fu, I was considering introducing you to my son, but I guess there's no point now."
