The cicadas seemed even noisier this summer, and the branches under the shade of trees grew wildly, yet they couldn't block the blazing sun. It wasn't until the second weekend that a slight breeze finally appeared. This gentle breeze, however, did not dispel the burning anxiety of the crowd.
Jiang Cheng leaned against the balcony, squinting slightly, watching the orange sunset embrace the horizon in the distance.
Just today, he successfully created a dimensional collision de-attachment device.
"call--"
Taking a deep breath of fresh air, Jiang Cheng stretched his slightly stiff back, which had been bent over for a long time, and completely relaxed himself before returning to the underground laboratory.
Dozens of lights at the top were working simultaneously, illuminating the entire laboratory brightly.
He walked slowly to the interdimensional collision and attachment instrument, gently touching every part installed on the capsule, even every tiny screw. The cool touch added to Jiang Cheng's excitement.
This gray-white capsule cabin, which looks extremely simple, even rudimentary, is Jiang Cheng's masterpiece, the result of more than half a year of painstaking work.
The technological power it contains cannot be summarized in just a few words.
Even Jiang Cheng, who had personally created this machine, was filled with overwhelming shock when he faced it. In fact, precisely because he had created the machine himself, Jiang Cheng understood its value better than anyone else and cherished it more than anyone else.
The dimensional collision and attachment device, as its name suggests, can create dimensional gaps through a dual explosion of energy and overlapping compression, ultimately allowing the host currently in the capsule to enter a new dimension at the appropriate point.
The successful creation of the Li Fuyi also signifies that Jiangcheng is ready to enter the Dream Dimension.
Jiang Cheng's gaze slowly settled on the touch panel on the side of the capsule. He stretched out his right hand, hesitated for a long time, and then withdrew it.
No rush.
He slowly walked around to the other table and picked up a document sealed in a brown paper bag. Opening the bag, Jiang Cheng pulled out a stack of documents. On the cover, a line of large, extremely conspicuous words appeared before Jiang Cheng's eyes.
"August 13th"
This is the date twelve days from now. It also foreshadows that on that day, Jiangcheng will experience a dimensional collision, tearing open a rift and entering the Dream Dimension.
His gaze grew increasingly profound.
Jiang Cheng stuffed the documents back into the paper bag and casually handed it to Gu Qingwan, who promptly reached out and took the documents from him, gently asking, "Boss, are you ready?"
She sensed Jiang Cheng's excitement and his deeply hidden tension.
To soothe Jiang Cheng, she gently reached out, her fair fingers touching his shoulder. Her fingertips brushed past his ear, sending a tingling sensation through her.
"It's alright, boss. You just need to take care of everything after you pass away."
Gu Qingwan's words also reminded Jiang Cheng that he still had too many things to handle.
We can't waste any more time here.
He sighed almost imperceptibly, turned around and nodded: "Understood."
Jiang Cheng glanced back at Li Fuyi one last time, then turned and walked out of the laboratory. Gu Qingwan followed slowly.
The two walked in remarkably unison, even their hand gestures were almost identical, like a copy-paste. From the end of the corridor, however, it wasn't eerie; on the contrary, it was extremely harmonious.
During this period of research, Gu Qingwan, as his most loyal and tacit assistant, stayed by Jiang Cheng's side, and the bond between the two grew deeper and deeper.
As he walked to the door, a gentle evening breeze blew across Jiang Cheng's forehead.
His gaze drifted into the distance, and with a mere thought, Gu Qingwan stepped forward and gently handed him an electronic screen. The schedule on it showed that Jiangcheng still had many miscellaneous matters to handle today.
Jiang Cheng took the tablet and sat in the back seat: "Let's go home."
He simply didn't have the energy to stay in the lab any longer today; there were still many things waiting for him to take care of when he got home.
"good."
After getting into the car, Gu Qingwan handed two protein bars to Jiang Cheng in the back seat: "Boss, you haven't consumed enough protein and sugar today. You can eat some to supplement it. I've also changed the menu for dinner to adjust your diet."
Jiang Cheng silently accepted the protein bar that Gu Qingwan handed him, took a bite, and closed his eyes slightly.
The sweetness bursts forth on the tip of the tongue.
He doesn't usually crave sweets, and when he occasionally eats something with such a bland taste, he can't help but frown.
Gu Qingwan sensed his displeasure and turned her head apologetically, saying, "I'm sorry, boss, this is the least sweet flavor. I'll prepare a proper meal for you next time. Meal replacements aren't really suitable for you."
"fine."
Jiang Cheng didn't care much; he just chewed a couple of times and swallowed what was in his mouth. He wasn't someone who cared much about his appetite, and these little things weren't important to him.
After quickly finishing the protein bar, Jiang Cheng took out his phone to let Luo Xiaoli know he was safe.
"I'm done with work, I'll be home in half an hour. Shall we have dinner together?"
Luo Xiaoli, who had been eagerly awaiting Jiang Cheng's message at home, finally received it and jumped out of bed with joy. Her fingers flew across the screen, and Luo Xiaoli quickly typed a reply for Jiang Cheng: "Okay! I'll wait for you!"
The two exclamation marks in a row were proof of Luo Xiaoli's joy.
Jiang Cheng has been extremely busy lately, and she hasn't had a chance to talk to him much in a long time, let alone sit down for a proper meal.
In Luo Xiaoli's memory, the last time the two of them sat quietly and ate a meal was the day they went out for Western food. Since then, there have been no more such warm moments.
