Qin Yaoguang called her subordinates and got into her car. She thought for a moment and called He Chengjian.
“Brother He, it’s Yaoguang.” She sounded very anxious. “I just came to check on Nianzhi’s condition at West Camp Hospital and found out that Ah-Chu has taken her away. Do you know where Ah-Chu has taken her?”
He Chengjian had just come out of a meeting and took the phone from his secretary. He was also very surprised. “What? Ah-Chu has taken Nianzhi away from the hospital? How is Nianzhi’s condition? Is she okay? !”
He was very worried that if Gu Nianzhi died, his only son would do something stupid…
“It’s okay, it’s okay. Brother He, don’t worry.” Qin Yaoguang’s voice was full of passion. “I heard from the people at the hospital that Nianzhi has woken up. She’s really lucky. Her physique is even better than what we’ve studied before.”
“I think her physique might really have evolved on its own! Brother He, do you know what this means? We didn’t think of this at first. In theory, the time needed for a gene to evolve is limited by the lifespan of humans, so it’s impossible for a gene to evolve in a single generation.”
“It’s already her limit that her genes can help Ah-Chu repair his defective genes. but we might be wrong. Her genes have even greater potential waiting for us to tap into!”
He Chengjian: “…”
Although Gu Nianzhi was not his daughter, He Chengjian was very uncomfortable to hear Qin Yaoguang talk about her own daughter like that.
Just like the earthworms he hated when he was young. Even though he knew that it would not have any ill intentions towards humans, he could not help having goosebumps when he saw its salivating expression.
Thinking of this, Gu Nianzhi’s metaphor of Qin Yaoguang as a “earthworm turning into a spirit” surfaced in He Chengjian’s mind.
The last bit of guilt he felt towards Qin Yaoguang was instantly wiped clean.
Qin Yaoguang was still unaware of the changes in He Chengjian’s mind. She was full of awe as she said, “What a pity. If she really died, we could have carefully study which gene fragment has self-evolved and repaired. Perhaps it can make a significant contribution to our country’s human genetic research and achieve a breakthrough that transcends generations!”
He Chengjian:”! ! !”
He was the same as He Zhichu. He used to think that Gu Nianzhi wasn’t intimate with Qin Yaoguang, her biological mother, because Qin Yaoguang was really busy with experiments and medical work and had neglected her daughter, so the mother-daughter relationship between the two of them was very estranged.
Moreover, Qin Yaoguang had repeatedly said that she did not treat Gu Nianzhi as her biological daughter, and Gu Nianzhi had never acknowledged Qin Yaoguang as her biological mother. She had even cut her biological mother’s hands with a knife after she returned.
In He Chengjian’s opinion, the mother and daughter were two peas in a pod. Neither of them was easy to deal with.
However, this time, Gu Nianzhi had truly been on the brink of death. Even now, he did not know if she would survive.
What Qin Yaoguang, her own mother, cared about was her “constitution” and her “genes.” She had even said that she was “very lucky.” It was a pity that she could not use her body for research…
He felt that something was wrong.
He Chengjian had seen scientists who were dedicated to scientific research. However, even the craziest scientist who did not understand social norms and was the craziest scientist in the history of science knew to love his daughter in the end…
He Chengjian frowned and said unhappily, “From what you mean, you wish that Nianzhi was dead?”
Qin Yaoguang froze and quickly understood what she had said unintentionally. She stammered to explain, “Brother He, that’s not what I meant. You know, I’ve always been single-minded. As long as it’s something related to my medical research, I can’t think of anything else. Nianzhi is my biological daughter. Why would I want her to die?”
“Haha, single-minded. No wonder Nianzhi said that you’re an earthworm turning into a spirit. You’re really overbearingly single-minded.” He Chengjian obviously did not believe Qin Yaoguang’s excuse.
Qin Yaoguang was annoyed at her slip of the tongue, but she also knew that repeatedly denying it would only make He Chengjian’s impression of her worse.
Therefore, she quickly stopped denying it and said, “I know that brother He is kind-hearted and had loved Nianzhi since she was young. It’s Nianzhi’s fortune to be able to marry into the He family.”
“But death is inevitable. It can be as heavy as Mount Tai or as light as a feather. If she… can contribute to the research of human genes, as a mother, I won’t stop the path of human evolution just because of that mother-daughter relationship.”
Damn it, He Chengjian, the cunning military bigshot, was about to kneel down when he was accused of “getting in the way of the evolution of human beings”.
“Wait, wait, wait…” He Chengjian quickly stopped her. “First of all, we still don’t know what Nianzhi’s situation is like. Perhaps she has really died. How can you be so sure that her genes can self-repair and evolve?”
“Also, whether or not she is alive is currently unknown, and we don’t even know where she is. It makes me feel very uncomfortable for you to think of all this nonsense. As her biological mother, you’re so cold-blooded towards your own daughter. I really doubt how much sincerity you have for Ah-Chu. You’re so enthusiastic about Ah-Chu’s congenital genetic defect. Is it because of your research?”
He Chengjian’s expression turned cold.
He was a suspicious person. Once he became suspicious, he would think deeper.
He Chengjian could not control Qin Yaoguang using her own daughter as an experiment. However, if she dared to put her hand on his only son, he would skin her alive!
Qin Yaoguang shuddered. It was as if she could feel He Chengjian’s strong displeasure and disgust from the radio waves of her phone from a thousand miles away.
This feeling was fatal to Qin Yaoguang.
She had only loved one person in her entire life — He Chengjian.
No matter how good or bad he was to her, whether he gave up or tried to get close to her, she had never changed her mind.
He Chengjian could have no love her and could ignore her, but he could not loathe her. He absolutely could not!
Why did she hate Gu Nianzhi so much for calling her an “earthworm turned into a spirit”? Because she knew He Chengjian hated earthworms the most ever since he was young!
Her eyes reddened instantly. Qin Yaoguang sobbed. “He Chengjian!”! You have no conscience! Would I do that? ! I love Ah-Chu more than your wife does ! Don’t forget, I was the one who suggested gene therapy and gave birth to a child. I used her genes to treat Ah-Chu’s illness, but your wife was against it!”
Qin Yaoguang slammed the phone down and covered her face as she started crying.
Half of her life had passed, but the man she loved deeply was still acting as if he was standing on the clouds and treating her as if she was not there.
He Chengjian heard Qin Yaoguang’s crying and crying words from the other side, and he was momentarily absent-minded.
That’s right, his wife was the one who strongly opposed it. She was not willing, definitely not willing to use the life of another child to save her child.
Qin Suwen was a lawyer. Not only had she objected verbally, but she had also invoked various laws of the country to prohibit them from “treating human life with contempt” and using other people’s genes to create lives to experiment on.
However, he knew that she loved his son very much. He could not bear to let her watch her son walk step by step towards his death, so he had secretly worked with Qin Yaoguang and that madman to finally find a way to not break the law, or rather.., it was that lunatic who found a loophole in the relevant laws.
By accident, Gu Nianzhi was born..
It was not until He Zhichu recovered six years later that he told Qin Suwen the whole truth.
Qin Suwen was so angry that she went crazy. She requested to divorce him and was no longer willing to live with him.
He knelt in front of her every night, and beggdc her not to leave him, but Qin Suwen insisted on leaving.
He Chengjian was driven to the brink of insanity. Just as Qin Suwen was about to get a lawyer to handle the separation procedures, the lunatic suddenly dropped Gu Nianzhi off at his house and said that he and Qin Yaoguang were too busy to take care of her and asked them for help.
Qin Suwen’s heart softened as she looked at the six-year-old girl who was hiding under the table and looking at them timidly.
She was not going to leave, nor was she going to get a divorce. She was even going to quit her job temporarily to take care of the little girl who had just arrived, and her son who had just recovered from a serious illness.
She had asked Gu Nianzhi to get engaged to her son, and had been telling He Zhichu not to let this little girl down.
He Zhichu was only sixteen at the time, but his mother had already begun to tell him to treat Gu Nianzhi well.
From then on, she did not allow her son to have too much contact with her father, because she believed that “cold bloodedness was contagious.”.
During those two years, Qin Suwen had ignored him and they had been in a Cold War.
But he was willing to endure it. As long as she did not leave and did not leave the house, he would be satisfied.
However, he wasn’t able to save her on that day.
Two years after Gu Nianzhi arrived at their house, when He Zhichu was eighteen years old, Qin Suwen suddenly passed away.
All the forensic examinations said that she had suffered from acute myocardial infarction due to intense stimulation, and not from external injury.
In short, Qin Suwen had been “angered to death”, literally angered to death.
However, this statement could not satisfy He Chengjian.
Qin Suwen had been staying at home, but after meeting that madman, she had suffered an acute myocardial infarction. Was this not the fault of that madman? !
Because that madman was the last person to meet Qin Suwen.
What exactly did he say to her to make her so angry?
Also, that madman had left her in the lurch, because even if Qin Suwen had collapsed, she could not have died immediately.
Therefore, he ignored other people’s attempts to stop him and issued a warrant for the arrest of that Madman, Gu Xiangwen, and used the entire nation’s power to hunt him down.
He Chengjian’s face was livid. Thinking that this madman still knew his place, he clenched his fists tightly.
If he had not died in the car accident and fire in front of everyone, he would have searched for him and asked what he had said to Qin Suwen to make her “die of anger”!
..
At that moment, Gu Nianzhi had just opened her eyes in the penthouse apartment in the Western District of C City. She was no longer in the hospital.
After a few more hours of sleep, her physical strength had recovered further.
Although her chest and back were still burning with pain, as if someone had ripped out her heart and ravaged it, the pain was already slightly better than before.
She looked at the three people in the room.
Sitting by her bed was He Zhichu. After an unknown amount of time, He Zhichu’s military uniform was in a mess.
Standing in front of the bed was probably the Ace of the Far East, and there was blood mark on his chest.
Gu Nianzhi: “…”
She felt a little uncomfortable.
She had been prepared to die to take the bullet for him, but now that she was not dead, she felt extremely uncomfortable and embarrassed to see this person again.
Gu Nanzhi automatically ignored this person and looked at CEO Lu Yuan, who was standing opposite her.
“CEO Lu…” Gu Nianzhi’s voice was very weak. “Let them go. I want to be alone for a while.”
He Zhichu: “…”
Ace of the Far East: “…”
Lu Yuan instantly understood what Gu Nianzhi meant. He sighed and said, “Both of you, you heard what lawyer Gu said. She doesn’t want to see you. Shouldn’t you agree to the patient’s wishes?”
He Zhichu frowned and turned to look at Gu Nianzhi. “Nianzhi, can’t I just stay outside with you? You can’t do this without someone to look after you.”
Gu Nianzhi composed herself and said softly, “… Then did I have the surgery?”
“Of course.” He Zhichu nodded. “A very good doctor performed the surgery on you. All the shrapnel in your body was removed. Even the shrapnel embedded in your heart was no exception.”
“That doctor was so good…” Gu Nianzhi’s eyes sparkled as she looked at Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan smiled at her. “Of course he’s good. If that doctor wasn’t good, he wouldn’t have been able to save you, right?”
Gu Nianzhi also smiled at him and said, “That’s fine then. Since the operation has already been performed, just find a nurse. There’s no need to trouble the two of you.”
He Zhichu was in a difficult position. He knew Gu Nianzhi’s situation very well. If he had to find someone to take care of her, what if that person didn’t keep his mouth shut?
“Nianzhi, don’t be willful. Let me take care of you. I swear, I’ll leave immediately after your injury recovers. If you don’t agree, I won’t see you again. Is that okay?” He Zhichu only wanted to make up for the mistakes he and his father had made.
Gu Nianzhi didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. She could tell that He Zhichu had really been frightened this time. He probably wouldn’t insist on any more engagement.
As long as he didn’t get involved in this matter, she didn’t have any other ill feelings towards him.
Even though she hated his father, she wouldn’t vent her anger on He Zhichu.
“Young Master He, you’re thinking too much. You know about my injuries, so you’re worried, But wouldn’t it be fine if you just asked a random nurse to just say that I was stabbed with a knife? Do you really have to tell others how I got injured?”
Gu Nianzhi smiled widely.
She knew He Zhichu had misunderstood.
She was afraid that others would see her bullet wound heal too quickly and cause unnecessary panic and rumors…
But if the nurse did not know what kind of injury she had suffered, then she could recover whenever she wanted. There would be no consequences.
Lu Yuan was impressed by Gu Nianzhi’s intelligence, but he pretended to be confused. “So, lawyer Gu’s injury wasn’t from a knife?”
He Zhichu: “…”
The Ace of the Far East, who had been watching from the side, finally said slowly, “Lawyer Gu is wise. Let’s leave it at that. Young Master He, where are your medical equipment? Aren’t you going to hurry them up? I’ll take my leave first.”
He nodded to Gu Nianzhi curtly and turned to walk towards the door.
He Zhichu saw the Ace of the Far East leave and breathed a sigh of relief. He held Gu Nianzhi’s hand and put it under the blanket. “Okay, you rest first. I’ll find you a nurse, okay?”
Gu Nianzhi smiled and shook her head. “Young Master He, finding a nurse is too big of a goal. We don’t need to bother the two masters. It’s better to let CEO Lu help.”
She then said softly, “Young Master He, I think it’s best if you don’t show up for the time being. If I’m not wrong, that mother of mine must be looking for me all over the world right now. If she knows that you took me away, don’t you think she’ll look for you first?”
He Zhichu’s body trembled and he immediately said, “I understand. Then take care of your injuries. I’ll go lure them away.”
He must not let her fall into Qin Yaoguang’s hands in again.
Gu Nianzhi closed her eyes and agreed. “Thank you for the trouble, Young Master He. I’ll call you when I’m better.”
The insinuation was for him to not show up in front of her before she got better.
He Zhichu understood what she was saying. Although he was very sad and reluctant to part with her, his reason told him that this was the best way.
Gu Nianzhi was already awake. With her recovery ability and the special care he had found, she should be able to take care of herself.
“Then when your injury recovers, you must call me. In case someone eavesdrops on you, I won’t contact you for the time being.” He Zhichu stood up. “As for the medical equipment, it’s a good thing I didn’t give them this address.”
At that time, he had been extra careful and had gotten someone to send it directly to his base.
Lu Yuan was very satisfied and said, “You can send it to my company. I’ll send it over myself.”
“Thank you, CEO Lu.” He Zhichu glanced at him.
Lu Yuan paid special attention to Gu Nianzhi. It wasn’t that He Zhichu didn’t know there must be a problem.
However, Gu Nianzhi trusted him so much that He Zhichu didn’t say anything more.
Lu Yuan had always had a good reputation. Moreover, he had a big company, so he wasn’t afraid of what he would do.
The bigger one’s business was, the more they would cherish their cash cow. This was because he no longer had nothing. He had a lot of concerns and wouldn’t easily do anything illegal.
In addition, ever since Gu Nianzhi had met Lu Yuan, the difficulties in her life had been easily resolved. It was obvious that Lu Yuan would not harm her.
He Zhichu finally left with a heavy heart.
When Lu Yuan saw He Zhichu get into the car from the surveillance camera and drive away from the residential area, he made a leisurely phone call. “You can come down now. I’ll be leaving first.”
Gu Nianzhi’s heart skipped a beat. She wanted to stop Lu Yuan, but Lu Yuan had already left in a hurry.
The sound of the door opening and closing came from outside. After a while, her door was pushed open, and Lu Jin’s smiling face appeared in front of her.
“Little Simba, the happiest day of the Lion King’s life was also at Disneyland.”
