Chapter 616: I'm so miserable!
"I called you here today because there's something I'd like to ask you about."
After the old leader finished speaking, Gu Yin's mind raced. Was he asking about Lan Yan?
He remained expressionless and said, "Please speak."
The old leader nodded: "You know about what's going on online, right? On behalf of our country, I want to ask about your recent plans. This commotion can't go on forever, so if you have any thoughts, feel free to tell us. We'll discuss it together. If you have any grievances, speak up; if you have any concerns, speak up. We'll stand up for you!"
So that's what it was. Gu Yin breathed a sigh of relief.
She pursed her lips and pretended to be angry, saying, "I don't have any thoughts."
Intelligent people can have tempers, but they cannot be without desires. Otherwise, such people are too difficult to control and unstable. The country would prefer that you be a person with flesh and blood, or rather, a person with needs, hobbies, and weaknesses.
Seeing Gu Yin like this, the old leader smiled. She's still just a child. It's good that she gets angry when she's wronged.
"Just tell me, and I'll take care of it for you!"
Gu Yin sighed upon hearing this, "It's one thing for them to frame me, I know it's normal for people to misunderstand me at my age, with my family background, and with my achievements. I also know there are some enemy agents causing trouble, but regarding this matter, they have no right to speak without investigation! They have even less right to speak without conducting a proper investigation!① You can discuss, but you can't be prejudiced and self-righteous! It's one thing for them to insult me, but they also insulted my family, cursing me and my family. I have never suffered such injustice in my life! I am very angry, so I don't want to make medicine to treat those people!"
The old leader smiled and comforted her: "I understand your feelings and grievances. Those people are indeed going too far, but I see that there are still some people protecting you, such as your hometown, your high school classmates and teachers, and your classmates and teachers at Qingdao University. Even though they were attacked and insulted, they did not give up and still tried to explain for you regardless of the consequences. Some of those people's family members are sick. If you do not continue the experiment, some of their families will be torn apart. Can you bear to see that?"
Gu Yin pursed her lips and remained silent.
Seeing this, the old leader continued with a smile, "Just say what you really think, don't be afraid."
Gu Yin glanced at her former boss, seeing only encouragement in his eyes, then sat up straight and muttered, "It's not that I don't want to do the experiments, it's that I don't want to give them to those who criticize me. Or I should provide them to those who don't criticize me first, and then give them to the others. Anyway, I want them to learn a lesson, otherwise they won't remember and will continue to cyberbully other innocent people."
The old leader nodded upon hearing this, then frowned and said, "There are too many people. We can't find them all at once. How about this: find the few who cursed the most and give them a public reprimand?"
It's good that they don't want to do experiments! Otherwise, it would be a real waste of talent, a loss for the country!
When Long Yu saw Gu Yin's eyes light up after her father finished speaking, he immediately sensed something was wrong!
"It's okay! I've written them all down! I had someone set up keywords on the platform. As long as they insult me and my family, they'll trigger those keywords! Their information and data will be recorded! There's no way they can escape! I guarantee that not a single one of those who insulted me will be missed!"
Long Yu: "...!!"
The former leader said, "...Isn't there a bit too many people?"
Gu Yin's eyes widened: "Great! This is a perfect opportunity to clean up the internet! Let them behave properly! Let's restore a clean and fair online platform for all netizens! Isn't that wonderful?"
The old leader reached for his teacup, took two sips, and before he could speak, Uncle Lin, who was waiting at the door, came in to report.
"Sir, Minister Lu from the Information Department has arrived."
The old leader glanced at Gu Yin, then smiled and shook his head helplessly: "Let him in."
Gu Yin blinked. This had nothing to do with her; she hadn't called anyone!
Lu Jie quickly walked in, saluted his former leader, and greeted him, "Good afternoon, former leader! Sorry to bother you!"
The old leader stood up to return the greeting, and then asked Lu Jie to sit down.
"You came here without even saying hello. You don't report to me about your work, do you? So, what's the matter? Tell me the truth."
Upon hearing this, Lu Jie immediately wore a pained expression and said, "I'm so miserable! I was the one who met Gu Yin first! I was the one who said I wanted to be her teacher! You have no idea how amazing she is with computers! She even cracked their school's network back in high school! I was the one who set that up when I was in school! You know my skills too, and she even won a gold medal in the National Computer Information Competition. If it weren't for the fact that our computer information subject lagged behind the other three subjects in the international competition, and Professor Cheng hadn't snatched Gu Yin away, she would be working at my research institute right now! Instead of being scolded and questioned! You have no idea how much I've suffered these past two years, just thinking about it makes my heart ache! My student, whom I longed for but couldn't have, has suffered such a great injustice! Professor Cheng may not care, but I do! If she were my student, I would never let her suffer like this! I'm so miserable, really, how could I be so miserable, all the students I promised to have were snatched away! Waaaaah!" He then rubbed his eyes.
Gu Yin: "...!!" My eyes have been opened! She's even better at pretending than me!
The old leader: "..." Someone, drag him out!! He's even better at pretending than that little girl! He doesn't even want to think about what will happen if he becomes that little girl's teacher!
Long Yu: "...!!!" Is this Minister Lu? The stern-faced Minister Lu? Could he have been possessed? Otherwise, how could he be even more pitiful than a girl! Thinking of this, he looked at Gu Yin, his eyes flashing.
Gu Yin lowered her head and drank her tea, ignoring him. She was just the one being bullied; she would leave the rest to Lu Jie to handle!
The old leader smirked: "Just tell me why you came here!"
Lu Jie put away his exaggerated expression, cleared his throat and said, "I heard that Gu Yin switched to the computer science department, so I came here to recruit students."
Another troublemaker! The old leader ignored him and looked at Gu Yin instead, saying, "I can agree to the requests you just made, but we have conditions: you can't give up biology, and you can't change your major, is that alright?"
Lu Jie's expression changed: "Old leader, it's a student's freedom to choose! You can't force her..."
Before he could finish speaking, the old leader raised his hand, stopping him from continuing.
Lu Jie started to get anxious!
Gu Yin shook her head: "I cannot agree to that."
The old leader frowned: "Is there no room for negotiation?"
Gu Yin shook her head again: "No, I love biology and I love doing experiments, so there's no way I'd give up biology. I'll still do the experiments, and once I have the results, I'll apply to graduate early. My teacher said that what the school is teaching now is no longer suitable for me, so I plan to take computer science as an elective without interfering with my experiments! These two things are not contradictory!"
She needed to find an opportunity to subtly retrieve the lithography machine and other similar items she had previously won, so choosing to major in computer science was a must.
The people in the room fell silent upon hearing this. They were all intelligent people, and they could only do their best in their own professional fields. They weren't confident about crossing over into other industries!
However, considering Gu Yin's past achievements, perhaps it really is possible.
The former supervisor reiterated, "Are you absolutely certain you can succeed? This is crucial, especially since the biological experiments cannot be delayed."
Gu Yin nodded: "It's just a matter of time."
And what she does best is make time!
