After hesitating for a moment, Chen Jiayi decided to face reality.
She nodded solemnly, "Let's look at the DNA test report first!"
Shen Jialiang led Chen Jiayi into his office.
He opened the drawer and took out the documents that were there.
Shen Jialiang, with his slender, fair fingers holding the document, walked up to Chen Jiayi.
He raised an eyebrow. "Open it and take a look."
Chen Jiayi nervously took the document. It would be a lie to say she wasn't scared, but she was also mentally prepared.
Chen Jiayi opened the first page of the document, which contained Shen Jialiang's neatly written appraisal results.
"DNA comparison analysis showed that Chen Qiming and his daughter Chen Jiayi had a 99.99% RCP, supporting the existence of a biological parent-child relationship between Chen Qiming and Chen Jiayi."
Hot tears suddenly streamed from Chen Jiayi's eyes, and the tension that had been gripping her suddenly eased.
It turns out she really is the richest man's daughter!
In her past life, the mistress took her place for a lifetime, while she suffered hardships and torment from the elements.
When Shen Jialiang saw Chen Jiayi crying, he frowned slightly and handed over his own handkerchief.
Chen Jiayi's voice choked with emotion, "Thank you."
Shen Jialiang said calmly, "Having broken free from the old shackles, I now know who I truly am."
Chen Jiayi could barely understand the meaning of the sentence, and she gave a bright smile.
Thank you for your comfort.
Shen Jialiang looked away. "Let's go. After I show you around the research institute, I still have experiments to do."
Chen Jiayi nodded and quickly stood up.
Chen Jiayi put on a sterile gown and a protective shield before entering the actual research institute.
At each stop they passed, Shen Jialiang would explain things to Chen Jiayi in detail.
…
Ding Haowen went to see his superior.
Although he was recruited by Shen Jialiang, Shen Jialiang didn't want him, so he could only work with other teachers.
His teacher is not here, so now he can only go to other superiors.
Ding Haowen laughed and said, "Old Zhao, do you know why I was suspended? Didn't the company call and say I could come back to work? Why am I suspended from work at home again?"
Zhao Dezhu sighed, patted Ding Haowen on the shoulder, and looked at him with a complicated expression.
"You should be more careful about how you behave in general."
When Ding Haowen saw that Lao Zhao was about to leave, he quickly stopped him and took out a ten-yuan note from his pocket.
"Old Zhao, besides my professors, you're the person I'm closest to at the research institute. Could you give me a little inside information?"
After hesitating for a moment, seeing that no one was in the restroom, Lao Zhao took the large denomination from Ding Haowen's hand.
He lowered his voice: "I heard that your superiors found out about your renting out the house, and they don't like you, so they suspended you from work. But it shouldn't be a big problem, don't worry."
Ding Haowen's heart sank. "Which leader above?"
Zhao Dezhu chuckled, "How would I know?"
He shook his collar and felt it was covered in bacteria.
Zhao Dezhu looked disgusted and immediately left the restroom.
Ding Haowen's face was grim. The company's housing couldn't be rented out to others. But the person he had rented to was rarely seen.
This must have been reported by someone. But who reported it?
A candidate subconsciously flashed through Ding Haowen's mind...
Chen Jiayi spent the afternoon touring the research institute and felt like her head was about to explode.
Shen Jialiang was still giving a long and detailed introduction when he led Chen Jiayi to the laboratory, at which point he paused.
He was filled with awe: "This laboratory studies hybrid rice."
Upon hearing about hybrid rice, Chen Jiayi couldn't help but ask, "What's the difference between hybrid rice and conventional rice?"
Shen Jialiang paused for a moment, then continued to explain: "Hybrid rice is artificially hybridized, which is more expensive, while conventional rice can be naturally propagated, which is less expensive."
"Conventional rice has yield bottlenecks and is susceptible to rice blast and natural disasters. Its breeding cycle is long, relying on natural variation and selection, and it takes more than 10 years to cultivate new varieties."
"The second generation of hybrid rice that we are currently researching..."
Before she knew it, Shen Jialiang had spent another half hour introducing things to Chen Jiayi, and Chen Jiayi felt her mind was filled with knowledge.
On her way home, she sat in the car in a daze.
Chen Qiming laughed out loud, "How do you feel?"
Xiao Shen is 26 years old this year. He is already a professor at the research institute at such a young age. His future is limitless!
If Jiayi and Shen Jialiang were together...
Chen Jiayi said weakly, "I feel dizzy and lightheaded. Dad, why did you let Professor Shen take me to visit the research institute?"
She was somewhat puzzled, as she had no idea what an experiment was or what it meant to do research.
Why did Chen Qiming make this arrangement?
Chen Qiming smiled and said, "You've been away from your parents since you were little, and I want you to see things that others haven't seen before."
Chen Jiayi stared blankly at Chen Qiming, she hadn't expected it to be for this reason.
She felt a pang of guilt. "I'm sorry, Dad, I thought you were..."
She was a little embarrassed to say it, but Chen Qiming said it with a smile.
"You still think I deliberately arranged for you to come into contact with Professor Shen, don't you?"
Chen Jiayi nodded, "After all, your disappearance was too coincidental! I couldn't find you all afternoon."
Chen Qiming is the kind of person who can even observe her anxiety and unease at the Chen family home. How could he let her be alone with Shen Jialiang?
Chen Qiming chuckled, "Dad does mean that. If you want to study, having Xiao Shen as your teacher would be the best option. He's a child prodigy!"
Chen Jiayi was a little confused: "Dad, is Professor Shen very amazing? Can he teach anything?"
Chen Qiming proudly said, "I can say without exaggeration that if it were in the past, Shen Jialiang would definitely have been a top scholar at the age of 16!"
After thinking about it carefully, Chen Qiming realized that he could teach almost anything.
"However, Xiao Shen mainly focuses on research. If you're not interested in that area and want to study finance, you'll have to find another teacher."
Chen Jiayi nodded. She was somewhat interested in scientific research, but also in making money through business, and was a little undecided for a moment.
Chen Qiming said gently, "Are you having trouble deciding which one to choose? That's okay, you can take your time to think about it."
Chen Jiayi asked curiously, "Dad, aren't you the richest man in Haicheng? Why won't you let me study finance so I can inherit your business?"
Seeing Chen Jiayi's curiosity, Chen Qiming's eyes held a hint of nostalgia as he slowly spoke.
“My father used to be a soldier, but unfortunately he was injured and could no longer go to the battlefield.”
“Your mother came from a scholarly family. She took a liking to me, a poor boy, but because I had no money, your maternal grandmother’s family did not approve.”
"Then I learned to do business. Your mother suffered a lot with me during those two years. It was in that year that because we didn't have the money to provide good conditions for your mother to give birth at home, she could only give birth to you in a public hospital. After losing you, your father vowed to make a lot of money."
Chen Qiming's tone was tinged with sadness, "Later, I made money, but I never found you."
