Zhang Sheng wasn't particularly happy about getting two days off to go home; he wanted to achieve something, to have the group members, the leaders of the institute, and people from other project teams admire him.
As he was nearing forty, he was unwilling to continue in mediocrity and did not want to retire as a mere junior researcher.
Thus, even though he was reluctant, when the team leader gave everyone a holiday, Zhang Sheng had to go home to rest as ordered.
What he hadn't expected was that just as he stepped through his front door and had barely settled in, Luo Yanqing invited him to take a walk.
Luo Yanqing, who had recently emerged as a promising new talent in the scientific research field, was highly valued by the leaders of the institute.
Zhang Sheng had thought about trying to transfer to the project team under Luo Yanqing, yet since he started working, he had already been in more than two research teams and hadn't achieved any notable results in any of them.
