Chapter 299 Shopping with women is exhausting
"What's wrong?" Qiao Xing asked.
Qin Yi pointed ahead, "Look."
Qiao Xing looked up and, good heavens, the line was incredibly long.
"So many people are in line?"
Qin Yi was completely exasperated. "Judging from this situation, if we start queuing now, we won't be able to get in for at least two hours."
"What should we do then?"
Qin Yi thought for a moment, "Let's go somewhere else. I remember there are several other places that sell luxury goods."
"Okay, I'll do as you say."
What else could they do but listen to him? Qiao Xing didn't know the way, and he couldn't read either.
So the two of them left and took a taxi to Avenue Montaigne.
There are many people here, but it's slightly better than that old empress dowager's place.
Once inside, Qin Yi was straightforward and asked the sales assistant if they had this style, showing her a picture on his phone.
After looking at them, the sales assistant said that there was only one style available, and the others were out of stock.
Since we're already here, we have to buy it even if there's only one.
Meanwhile, Qin Ce, who was far away outside the center of a certain experimental building, received a notification on his phone. He glanced at it and then put the money back in his pocket.
He was standing outside a laboratory with a group of people, watching the team's experiment inside.
The people standing next to him were the core members who developed the editor. This was the first professional clinical trial, and it was for human testing. They didn't know what the results would be, so everyone was quite nervous.
The team inside is a multidisciplinary team specializing in genetics. They were supposed to prepare for clinical trials two months ago, but because Qin Ce was not there, they have had to wait until now.
The middle-aged man next to him said, "We've tried it ourselves before, but we weren't as professional as them. If this experiment is successful, the technology can be put on the market."
Qin Ce nodded slightly, but did not speak. He picked up the previous test data and looked through it.
The people inside were observing the changes in data on the computer screen, and the expert in charge showed obvious delight on his face.
A short while later, the expert printed out the data from the computer, took the document, and quickly walked out of the laboratory to stand in front of Qin Ce.
“Cedric!”
Qin Ce put down the document in his hand. "How is it?"
"It's a success, look." The expert handed him the documents.
Qin Ce picked it up and examined it carefully. The expert, worried that he might not understand, explained, "The results show that no other adverse gene editing events were found during the editing process."
"Statistical analysis results show an average success rate of 82%, with consistent results across experiments. Data analysis indicates that single basalt mutations in the BRCA1 gene significantly increase the apoptosis rate, further validating the effectiveness of the editing."
The surrounding technicians also breathed a sigh of relief. Their previous experimental result was 83%, which meant that the technology had become stable.
Qin Ce frowned and pondered, "82% still carries some risk. Is it possible to refine the success rate to over 90%?"
The middle-aged man standing nearby said, "Based on the current test results, there shouldn't be any problems; it just needs some time."
Qin Ce nodded slightly.
The expert said, "This is fantastic. This editing technology will bring a leap forward to the medical field, and perhaps in the near future, it can also be used to repair tumor cells."
Qin Ce said, "This is probably a bit difficult. Genetics focuses on the transmission and variation of genetic information between individuals, while tumors involve the biological characteristics of cancer cells and the molecular and cellular mechanisms of tumor development. The heterogeneity between cancer cells means that different mutations and expression patterns may exist in the tumors of the same patient."
"With current technology, we are not yet able to edit cancer cells."
The expert laughed and said, "It will happen. The world is constantly changing. Just like a hundred years ago, who would have believed that humans could fly?"
"So, Cedric, have faith in human wisdom!"
Qin Ce smiled, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.
Just then, his phone rang again. He glanced at it and saw it was another transaction notification.
"Cedric, I've also arranged to meet with a few authoritative medical experts. They're all quite interested in your technology, and we might be able to collaborate in the future. When do you have some free time? I'd like to introduce you to them."
Qin Ce put his phone away and said, "The day after tomorrow, I have some work to take care of these next two days."
"Then it's settled."
"good."
The expert glanced at the time and said, "Today has been quite fruitful, my friend. I'll treat you to dinner. You won't refuse, will you?"
"certainly."
"Haha, please."
——
When Qiao Xing and Qin Yi returned to their residence, they were both exhausted. They had originally planned to go sightseeing elsewhere, but because of these bags, and later Jiang Wang even sent them two bottles of perfume, the two of them ended up going to several places.
Now she finally understands that being a personal shopper isn't easy; all the money she earns is hard-earned.
Qin Yi also felt that shopping with women was exhausting.
My older brother was right; he ran off this morning and we haven't seen him since.
He dragged his tired body toward the bedroom. "I can't take it anymore. I need to go to sleep. Goodnight, sister-in-law."
Qiao Xing was also a little exhausted, but she wasn't as lazy as Qin Yi. She at least took a shower before returning to her bedroom and falling asleep immediately.
Qin Ce didn't return until after dark, but Qiao Xing didn't know that.
Seeing how exhausted she was, Qin Ce didn't disturb her.
The next morning, Qiao Xing found Qin Ce sleeping next to her.
She rubbed her eyes and just as she sat up, Qin Ce woke up as well.
"Why don't you sleep a little longer?"
Qiao Xing rubbed her sore neck. "No, I slept for at least 12 hours. I'm exhausted."
Qin Ce chuckled, "Where are you planning to go today?"
Qiao Xing paused in rubbing her neck, then turned to look at him. "Oh, by the way, Qin Yi and I went shopping yesterday using your card, but don't worry, Jiang Wang has already transferred the money to me. I'll transfer it to your account later."
"Purchase agent?"
"Yeah, Qin Yi said it's profitable."
Qin Ce didn't know what to say, so he sat up from the bed and massaged her shoulders. "How much money can you make? Don't do this. If you're going to do it, do it properly."
"Qin Yi and I are both illiterate, where can we go to have fun? I was so worried about going out today, I was really afraid we would get lost."
"I'll find you a tour guide."
Qiao Xing was taken aback. "You're going to find us a tour guide... Are you going out again today?"
"Yes, I need to go to the company... to help our CEO Qin with some things."
“You and your boss share the same surname. Whenever you say ‘President Qin,’ I feel like you’re talking about yourself.”
Qin Ce paused for a moment, then said, "Then just consider me as such."
"Then I'll take it seriously."
