บท 549: What is so hard?

```

Lin Tang quickly dimmed the flashlight, smiling as she said, "Oh dear, my mistake, my mistake. I didn't mean to do it on purpose, Professor Kong, with the bright moon in your heart, you won't hold it against me, right?"

She had heard about Kong Fangren from Gu Yingzhou.

Though he wasn't very old, not even forty, he was a technical talent who had overcome numerous difficulties to return to his homeland and contribute to its construction.

He was especially valued by those higher up.

Kong Fangren smiled weakly, his complexion extraordinarily pale.

"Well, since you've said so, how could I possibly take it to heart?"

He said this jovially; as his tightly wound nerves relaxed, his head tilted and he fainted.

Lin Tang leaned forward, and upon seeing a sticky red patch on Kong Fangren's abdomen, her expression shifted slightly.

How had this man managed to bear the pain and converse with her as if nothing was wrong?!

Lin Tang immediately felt a deep respect.
