Chapter 315: 315

“Then, grandfather, may I go to Ninghai?”
The woman’s purpose in coming here today was to have the old man give her permission to leave Yan Jing and go to Ninghai . Even if she couldn’t meet her son, seeing him from a distance would lessen her yearning .
“It’s been over twenty years, do they still watch you like a criminal?”
The old man’s expression grew serious . The dignity of one who has long resided in a superior position seemed to freeze the air . “Humph, I haven’t died yet . They don’t make the decisions in this household yet . ”
“Nothing like that, I’m just giving you notice ahead of time, in case people say I am going against my promise . ”
The woman’s mood improved greatly and she smiled brightly .
“Go . If anyone dares to say anything about this, tell them I gave you the task of preparing a birthday gift for Mr . Bai . If they don’t believe you, they can come ask me . ”
The old man drew back his dignity and huffed coldly . “Let’s see if my words still carry weight in this household . ”
“Thank you, grandfather . I will do this well so that Mr . Bai has nothing to say about it . ”
“Go, if you manage to have the Master of the Divine Burin make something, bring it back for me to see first . ”
In his early years, his favorite hobby was drinking . As he grew older, he quit drinking under the doctor’s advice . Now, jade sculptures, root sculptures, Peking Opera, calligraphy, bonsai plants, and tea were his greatest joys . Earlier, he had heard stories of the Master of the Divine Burin and had been disdainful, thinking they were all exaggerations .
But after seeing the moonlight lion, he was completely conquered by the Master of the Divine Burin’s skill . Now he could not wait to see his new work .
“Rest assured, I’ll bring back for you to see first . I’m leaving now!”
The woman’s heart had long flown like a bird to Ning Hai . She did not waste a single moment in bidding the old man farewell . She had to quickly make arrangements for matters at hand and immediately go to Ning Hai to see the child she thought about day and night .
“Go, be careful on the way!”
The old man watched as the woman left joyfully . A trace of regret flashed through his eyes and he mumbled to himself . “Girl, go, that child is in Ninghai, right? It’s been more than twenty years, and it’s time you saw him . Back then, it was my mistake . One false-step and I destroyed almost your entire life . Before I go, my biggest wish is to make up some of what I owe you . ”
Twenty years ago, an arrogant, iron-blooded, and heartless him had retreated from the front lines because of illness . It was also at a time when he could not make ends meet . It was because of this that he had greedily accepted his family’s marriage plan . He wanted to use the marriage to help the later generations of his family move forward . Unexpectedly, in the end, he had caused his favorite great-granddaughter a lifetime of misfortune .
Over these years, he had grown older and come to accept many things . He also felt more regard for family and thus his attitude had relaxed .
The woman had no idea that her seemingly flawless plan to use this opportunity did not fool this wise and intelligent old man at all . He allowed her to go to Ninghai out of his guilty conscience and a desire to fulfill her wish .
For five days, Ding Ning did not leave the laboratory . He did not change, did not sleep, and did not eat as he investigated . A tiny piece of ganoderma lucidum contained millions upon millions of micro-organisms . He had to eliminate them one by one to find the ones responsible for cloning and activating .
It was a massive undertaking to find two micro-organisms among millions . Ding Ning even contacted Principal Lu and asked for an electron microscope, worth a million, to successfully filter out what was needed .
Of course, it would be better to use Absolute Touch than an electron microscope but he could not sustain such output . This was not a matter of finding something with a clue . He needed to examine each micro-organism and eliminate them one by one . He had to constantly monitor its life pattern and discover its specialty through analysis .
When he came across a suspicious micro-organism, Ding Ning had to move it into a sterile environment to raise . He had to observe it constantly and gather data and only in the end, could he determine whether it was a micro-organism he needed .
Ding Luoxue was very well-behaved . She didn’t make any noise and did not disturb Ding Ning . Every day, she sat with her jaw on her hands and watched him work with interest .
When it was time to eat, she would cook for him . When he didn’t have time to eat, she would patiently heat and re-heat the food again and again for him .
It was fortunate that Ding Ning’s spiritual strength was so strong to be able to do such high-intensity work for five days consecutively without resting .
Finally, after all the micro-organisms had been filtered, Ding Ning eliminated most of the micro-organisms . Only a thousand or so were left and they were rotationally raised in sterile environments for further analysis and observation .
After the National Day holiday, the students returned once more to school . Ding Ning stretched and apologetically accepted the food Luoxue handed him and shoveled it into his mouth . “Luoxue, you don’t have to stay here with me every day . Go out and play . ”
“Brother, I like keeping you company!”
Luoxue’s eyes were filled with immovable softness . Pouting, she said, tenderly, “Although you are very handsome when you’re focused on work, you haven’t slept in five days!”
Ding Ning scratched his head and touched his bird-nest like hair . Shock appeared in his bloodshot eyes . “So fast? It’s been five days already? I thought it’s only been two days . ”
“It’s already been five days, if you don’t rest, your body won’t keep up . ”
Luoxue gave out commands like a housekeeper . “Eat then go to bed . ”
“I can’t . Time is tight and the work is important . I need to constantly observe these micro-organisms and bacteria to see if they change and record down the data . Otherwise, who knows when I’ll find the micro-organism I need?”
Ding Ning had burned a lot of energy to rescue Xiao Nuo and had not completely recovered . These few days, he had not felt anything through his concentrated focus but now that he had stopped, a powerful wave of tiredness made him yawn uncontrollably .
