Upon hearing this, Jiang Si's expression immediately became much more serious. "You figured it out?"
Huo Tingzhou nodded. He had noticed it in the conference room yesterday; Professor Yu's right hand seemed to be trembling slightly.
Jiang Si didn't hide it from him; just as they had guessed, her master's hand was indeed injured.
The person who injured him was from the same group that had previously tried to assassinate his teacher's wife.
In the era before computer-aided drafting software, almost all heavy industries and classified research and development units relied on hand-drawn blueprints.
The team my mentor was in was responsible for the most important part of the entire aerospace research and development system.
The drawing content, including but not limited to the power system, missile structure, engine, and final assembly drawings, was all the responsibility of the master.
Therefore, his importance is self-evident.
“Master’s hand injury has healed and he has no major problems in daily life, but a slight tremor is unavoidable.”
Jiang Si paused, a hint of heartache flashing in her eyes, "When Master was first injured, his condition was much more serious than it is now; he even had difficulty holding a pen, which is why he sent me those things..."
She didn't understand at that time.
It wasn't until his master said that it didn't matter if something happened to him, but he was worried about collapsing.
There was no one to replace him, which affected the progress of the entire project.
Even as he collapsed, all he felt was regret—regret for not being able to finish the project at hand sooner.
After listening, Huo Tingzhou reached out and gently grasped Jiang Si's shoulder.
His voice was as steady as ever, "It's alright, things will get better."
Jiang Si nodded.
She has a magical spring; she can definitely heal Master's hand!
“I made an appointment with my master to visit him after the New Year, bringing the two little ones with me.”
Huo Tingzhou: "Okay."
"Oh right, I almost forgot." Jiang Si said as she took a box out of her bag.
This was given to her by her master yesterday, as a gift for the two little ones.
When the box was opened, two identical, exquisitely crafted silver necklaces lay on a red velvet lining.
It is engraved with auspicious and longevity cloud patterns, and is decorated with several small and exquisite bells below.
Jiang Si picked one up, and the bell rang with a clear, tinkling sound.
The two little ones love this jingling sound the most.
It's a pity that I'm still too young to wear such a heavy silver necklace, so I'll have to keep it for now.
"Hey, why haven't the two little ones come back yet?" Jiang Si put away the collar and looked up to ask.
At this time of day, I would have already heard the two of them talking and babbling downstairs.
