Chapter 489 Injured

Gu Yin was momentarily at a loss, but in the end she helped Gu Qingming to the recliner and explained, "Uncle, that's not something dirty, it's a chicken, the kind Grandma raises, an upgraded version, do you understand what I mean?"

Gu Qingming took a big gulp of tea, nodded, and quickly stood up: "I understand! That chicken looks like it's been practicing for several years! It doesn't know if anyone in Beijing can handle it! Let's go, I'll go to the Chu family with you! I won't have peace of mind until this thing is dealt with!"

When Gu Yin saw that he really wanted to move out, she immediately pulled him back with all her might.

"Uncle, what I mean is, it's not a monster or a demon! It's just a chicken that I fattened up! Superstition is no good! We have to believe in science! I let those two chickens in yesterday. You weren't home, so you didn't know, but my dad, grandma, and aunt all know! Calm down, it's just a chicken!"

After saying that, seeing Gu Qinglang come out, Gu Yin hurriedly pulled him over: "Dad, Uncle was scared by the clucking chicken. Can you explain to him? I'm going to class now!"

After saying that, he went back to his room to wash up, grabbed his breakfast, and ran off.

Gu Yin didn't go home for lunch. After eating at school, she went to the lab and saw Cheng Dong with a frown.

"Teacher, what's wrong?"

Cheng Dong didn't respond, so Gu Yin called out, "Teacher?! What's wrong?"

Cheng Dong snapped out of his daze and looked at Gu Yin: "You're here."

Gu Yin sat down, frowning. "Teacher, are you feeling unwell?"

Cheng Dong shook his head: "It's nothing, I was just thinking about something. By the way, your experiment is ready. Go take a look. If there are no problems, apply for clinical trials. You know the application conditions and requirements yourself. Go and get busy."

Gu Yin nodded upon hearing this, got up and walked out. When she reached the door, she turned around and saw Cheng Dong staring at her in a daze. When he saw her turn around, he smiled and waved.

Gu Yin returned to her seat, thought for a moment, and then went to Yue Zemin's office.

"What's wrong?" Yue Zemin heard the voice, looked up and saw Gu Yin, and asked with a smile.

Gu Yin closed the door, pulled up a chair and sat down, then asked in a low voice, "I just saw the teacher lost in thought in the office, as if something was on his mind. Do you know why, senior brother?"

Yue Zemin hadn't expected Gu Yin to ask about this. He glanced at the door and saw it was closed, so he whispered, "I'm not entirely sure about this either, but I learned a little from the boss. Apparently, there was a problem with the military lab, which resulted in several big shots being hospitalized. My senior brother couldn't get anything out of the lab, so he asked me to take good care of our teacher. Our teacher has a junior brother who is our grandmaster's only son, whom we call Uncle-Master. Our grandmaster has passed away, and Uncle-Master and our teacher have always relied on each other. Neither of them has started a family. Uncle-Master was among those injured this time, which is why our teacher is so distraught."

"So that's how it is. So, were the injuries of Junior Uncle and the others external or internal? Were they caused by human intervention or were they an accident like our teacher's?"

Yue Zemin shook his head: "Senior brother didn't say much. It's something that needs to be kept secret. Don't tell anyone either. If I'm not in the lab, just keep an eye on the teacher."

Gu Yin nodded. After leaving Yue Zemin's office, she returned to her seat. Thinking of Old Cheng's earlier gaze, Gu Yin fell into deep thought.

For several days in a row, Cheng Dong was in a bad mood. These past two days, he went to the sanatorium for treatment. It just so happened to be the weekend, and Gu Yin and Gu Shu also returned to the Gu residence.

After arriving in Beijing, the old lady saw Gugu Chicken and Gege Chicken and didn't want to go back. But there was nothing she could do, as Gu Hua was still there. The two of them were packing their things to go to the airport.

Last time, because Gu Qingming was frightened, Gu Yin immediately pulled all her family members into a QQ group to explain the two extra family members, in order to prevent others from being frightened again.

When Gu Shu found out, he took leave that night to go home and see, so he wasn't surprised to see Grandma and the two chickens looking so reluctant to part.

Grandma Gu really couldn't bear to part with those two chickens; they were so obedient and hardworking! The eggs were really big! And the chicks that hatched were really good too! If she weren't worried about the trouble they might cause, she would have taken them back to her hometown!

Since the old lady arrived, the two chickens have been fed much better, and they're always hungry! They eat several meals a day! Judging from their appearance, Gu Yin thinks they've gained at least 10 pounds since they first arrived!

"Sweetie! I need to go back to my hometown first. I'll come back at the end of the month and bring you some delicious food from our hometown, okay? Let go of my pants leg first, or my pants will be ruined!" Grandma Gu hugged the chicken's head, smiled, and patted the chicken's back to make it let go.

Perhaps knowing who doted on them the most, the clucking chickens refused to let the old lady leave no matter what.

Seeing that time was running out if they didn't leave soon, Gu Yin stood in front of the two chickens: "Let go of their beaks or go back to the lab, it's your choice."

The two chickens that were being affectionate immediately stood still, no longer clinging to the old lady or stopping her from leaving.

Everyone laughed when they saw this.

“It’s still Ah Yin who can keep them in check! The old lady has spoiled these two chickens so much that they’re completely out of control! They were quiet when they first came, but now they’re flying around everywhere! They won’t listen to anything I say!” Gu Qinglang said with a smile.

The two chickens remained quiet with their heads down.

The old lady felt sorry for them again. These two are so good! They lay eggs so diligently! We can't even finish eating them all! They are such heroes, how can we be mean to them?

"Ayin, be nice to them, don't be angry, they just can't bear to part with me!" After saying that, the old lady gave the two chickens some more instructions before leaving.

Everyone else went to deliver the chickens, but Gu Yin didn't go with them; instead, she stayed home and looked after the chickens.

Seeing that Gu Yin wouldn't leave, the two chickens waited a while and, still not leaving, clucked a few times and slowly moved towards the backyard.

Gu Yin didn't say anything. As long as they didn't go out, they could go wherever they wanted.

In November, the first snow fell in Beijing, and news of Lan Yan's hospitalization reached Gu Yin's ears.

Gu Yin looked at Old Cheng: "When did this happen? How did you get injured?"

Old Cheng sighed: "It's not an injury, it's an infectious disease. He's been isolated now, and there's still no specific treatment for that infectious disease."

Gu Yin's heart skipped a beat, and she swallowed hard: "Is it Ai?"

Old Cheng shook his head: "Not this one."

Gu Yin breathed a sigh of relief; thank goodness it wasn't that!

What kind of infection is that?

"It's a disease caused by insects, an infectious disease that the whole world hasn't fully studied yet. It's somewhat similar to malaria. We're currently giving him information based on malaria, and we're still observing the others."
