Chapter 847: Hesitation is my fault!
The day after Chu Yan left, Wen Xin and Zhang Chengming arrived. Both of them looked puzzled when they entered the Gu family home, and they were both surprised that the other would be there.
"You're here too?" Wen Xin asked, puzzled.
Zhang Chengming nodded: "Did the mentor say what it was about?"
Wen Xin shook her head: "I don't know, they didn't say. By the way, did your family receive the money for that hair growth serum?"
A few days ago, they gave the data and samples to Gu Yin. After she returned home, she received more than one million yuan in her bank account, with the note that it was an experimental bonus.
Zhang Chengming nodded: "My family received it too."
"You've arrived. Come with me to the study." Gu Yin happened to be doing her morning exercise. When she saw the two of them come in, she greeted them with a smile and told them to follow her.
The two entered the study, and Zhang Chengming closed the door.
Gu Yin pointed to the sofa. After the two sat down, Gu Yin said, "Take a look at this document and give me an answer or share your thoughts."
The two took the document with a puzzled look. The cover was wrapped in kraft paper and sealed with a red seal bearing the national seal. Only academicians and people like Gu Yin would receive such confidential documents. They had seen them with Gu Yin a few times before.
So, why was this document given to them?
Many thoughts flashed through their minds, their hearts pounded faster and faster, and their hands began to tremble uncontrollably. No one knew better than them, the researchers, what this document represented.
"Is this for us?" Wen Xin pursed her lips, feeling a little unsure of how to speak.
Gu Yin nodded: "Take a look first, and we can discuss any questions you have after you've finished reading."
The two nodded upon hearing this, took a deep breath, and then opened the document.
The two thin sheets of paper were examined by the two people several times before they finally looked up at Gu Yin.
Wenxin's eyes showed both excitement and confusion.
"Project XX? Base XX? What is this?" I've never heard of this before, and it's not very clear. It just tells them to go to Base XX with Gu Yin to start work. It doesn't say how long the work period is, and that they don't need to bring anything. They just need to come with Gu Yin. If it weren't a confidential document, Wen Xin would think it was a scam with such unreliable information!
"This is a base that is unknown to outsiders. I can't say exactly what it does; it's quite complicated. But currently, the main work involves weapons and equipment. You'll find out when you get there," Gu Yin explained briefly. She added that they would have to go to the base to find out the specifics.
“We’re in the biomedical field, we know nothing about weapons and equipment, so we wouldn’t be able to do anything there,” Zhang Chengming said calmly, showing a clear understanding of his own limitations.
Gu Yin smiled and said, "You don't need to worry about that. It's not just about researching weapons and equipment there; there are other experiments as well. Besides, the main reason I'm calling you over is because I'm setting up my own lab and I'm a little short-staffed. We've been working together for a while now, and I know your abilities. If you come and help me, I can conduct my experiments more effectively. However, I need to remind you that the experiments I'm currently conducting could last five or six years, or even more than ten years, or even a lifetime. Once you enter that base, you won't emerge from the outside world until you're close to death. If you go, sign the papers, and we'll leave today. If you don't go, then don't utter a single word about it after you leave through this door. I'll give you five minutes to consider."
Zhang Chengming looked at Wen Xin, who didn't hesitate at all!
"Hesitating for even half a second would be a desecration of my years of hard work and determination! I'll sign! I'll go! This is my moment of glory! Others would love to go but can't, and this opportunity is presented to me. If I don't seize it, I'd truly be damned!" After saying that, he carefully wrote down his name, stroke by stroke!
Zhang Chengming: "...Are you that determined? Aren't you going to consider it at all? Aren't you going to consider your family either?"
Wen Xin put the pen back in its place and handed the document to Gu Yin with both hands: "Teacher, I'm ready!"
Girls don't have many opportunities to rise in society, so why not take advantage of it? Isn't this what she's always wanted? She didn't even bother to reply to Zhang Chengming's words.
Gu Yin looked at Zhang Chengming, who considered it for a minute before finally signing his name: "My family has relatives to take care of them. I will work hard to earn the bonus and send all the money home as a way of showing my filial piety. From now on, I will dedicate my life to my country!"
"No regrets?" Once you've signed, there's no use regretting it.
Zhang Chengming nodded vigorously: "No regrets! I won't desert! This is a rare opportunity! I hope I won't hold you back!"
Gu Yin smiled and nodded: "Don't worry, okay, you guys go get something to eat, I'll get ready. We'll leave in two hours! You can also call your families, but remember not to reveal anything that needs to be kept secret."
The two nodded and left the study. Gu Yin returned to her room and put the more important things into her Sumeru Ring. Then she went to the laboratory to collect all the experimental data on genes and some minor results. Only then did Gu Yin return to the Gu family. Seeing that Wen Xin and Zhang Chengming were ready, she took the two of them and Gu Ran, said goodbye to the Gu family, and secretly left in a private car.
