“At least, as far as I know, there are indeed such drugs in ancient books, but…” Gu Zhilin was silent for a moment before saying, “Even in our 21st century, we didn’t see anyone develop such a drug.”
"However, it is certain that that drug actually exists."
Seeing how certain Gu Zhilin was, Lu Jin'an completely trusted his judgment.
"In that case, let's start with the pharmaceutical companies."
Professor Leng was somewhat confused by what he heard: "What are you talking about?"
Since the possibility of banned drugs appearing at the Combat Academy was still just speculation, Lu Jin'an did not intend to tell Professor Leng.
"We are investigating a case of drug abuse. The drug may be a product of ancient times, so... Professor Leng, could you please tell us which drug company you contacted at the time?"
Professor Leng has little interest in history and archaeology.
Hearing this, he simply said, "Back then, we contacted that kid from the Li family. Doesn't his family own a pharmaceutical company? We just handed it over to him to handle."
“Li Sang?” Lu Jin’an said the name almost through gritted teeth.
After all, he hadn't yet settled accounts with Li Sang for what she had done to Gu Zhilin.
The fact that he got away has always been a thorn in Lu Jin'an's side.
Professor Leng nodded: "Yes!"
Lu Jin'an's face was terrifyingly cold at this moment.
Gu Zhilin also recalled his past experiences, and felt a burning hatred for Li Sang.
If this really is related to him, then it's a good opportunity to contact him.
Gu Zhilin quickly found all the novels on the bookshelf and even categorized them, distinguishing which ones were valuable for reference and which ones were simply the author's imagination.
After settling everything, Lu Jin'an planned to leave with Gu Zhilin.
Looking at the books that Gu Zhilin had neatly organized, Professor Leng was truly reluctant to let him go.
He took Gu Zhilin's hand and said, "Little Gu! You're still young. There's no need for you to suffer in a place like the army. Someone as talented as you should stay in our archaeology field. Stay here and I can give you better treatment."
To my utter surprise, even Professor Leng wanted to compete with me for his person.
Lu Jin'an couldn't sit still any longer. He pulled Gu Zhilin behind him and said, "Professor Leng, it wasn't easy for me to find a partner after all these years. Don't try to take him from me."
"So you think it's easy for someone who lived in ancient times to be in the archaeological field?" Professor Leng was furious and wanted to bypass Lu Jin'an to snatch the person away.
Lu Jin'an didn't dare to argue with Professor Leng, so she could only pull Gu Zhilin outside.
Gu Zhilin followed along in a daze for quite a while until Professor Leng was completely out of sight, at which point Lu Jin'an stopped with him.
"Why do you seem a little afraid of this Professor Leng?" Gu Zhilin asked, somewhat curious about Lu Jin'an's attitude towards Professor Leng.
Upon hearing this, Lu Jin'an sighed: "He is my elder."
"?"
"He is my mother's uncle."
"ah?"
“He’s my mom’s maternal uncle. Even my mom is afraid of him. How could I not be afraid? He’s always been a very old-fashioned person.”
"To be honest, I've always been an outstanding kid since I was little. Everyone praises me, but he's always been indifferent to me. He thinks I'm smart and there's no need for me to join the army. My parents are already in the army, and if I go too, I might end up without any descendants."
It was obvious that Lu Jin'an was genuinely afraid of this grandfather-level figure; he seemed somewhat guilty when talking about Professor Leng.
Gu Zhilin was speechless: "Do you modern people also feel pressure to carry on the family line?"
“Of course there are. There are too few humans now. Not only families, but the entire Earth Alliance places great importance on continuing the family line.” After saying that, Lu Jin’an glanced at Gu Zhilin with concern and saw that his expression was indeed a little unnatural.
So he quickly added, "But my family is okay. My parents don't care much about this, so allowing me to join the army also means they accept the possibility of not having any offspring in extreme circumstances."
Gu Zhilin opened his mouth, but said nothing.
Given his current status, it seemed that nothing he said would be appropriate, so he simply remained silent.
"Alright, let's go back to the military region first. I need to discuss today's matter with General Zhu."
Gu Zhilin nodded: "It's so late, are you going back to the military region to see General Zhu?"
Lu Jin'an looked at him with a puzzled expression. It was indeed a bit late, but this kind of situation often happened when working.
"I mean, aren't you going to my place to meditate tonight?" Gu Zhilin regretted saying it as soon as he finished speaking.
She had just rejected this person's confession, and now she was asking him to come to her room that night.
This just doesn't make sense.
“If you’re busy, you don’t need to go. You can meditate at home just as well,” he quickly added, sounding a little nervous.
Lu Jin'an found his behavior somewhat amusing; he was clearly used to her presence but was also embarrassed.
However... we should give him some time to adjust.
"Okay, I won't go today. Just do what you're used to. I'll meditate in my room when I get back to the dorm. Don't worry, I won't fall behind in my studies. I'll come find you tomorrow morning to practice Tai Chi."
Gu Zhilin blushed upon hearing this and remained silent.
Fortunately, Lu Jin'an didn't wait for his reply.
The two arrived at the gate of S University and got into the flying car to return to the military region.
After returning to the military region, Gu Zhilin went back to his dormitory by himself.
Lu Jin'an had already contacted Zhu Jiangshuai and was preparing to go to Zhu Jiangshuai's office to report the situation to him.
Back in his room, Gu Zhilin thought about everything that had happened that day and felt unusually tired.
"Master, what's wrong?" Bu Shi asked with concern as he saw his master slumped on the sofa. "Your pheromones seem off. Did you go into heat today?"
Artificial intelligence automatically detects the owner's physical condition.
He had originally planned to forget everything that happened at the Life Research Center today, but the divination reminded him of the miserable state he had been in when he was lured into heat by Lu Jin'an's pheromones.
That was really embarrassing.
Moreover, one can't help but think of the soaring pheromone compatibility between the two, which Zhou Muyun said was because her feelings for Lu Jin'an were getting better and better.
There was also Lu Jin'an's confession.
All of this was giving him a real headache.
It seemed he wouldn't be able to meditate tonight, so he asked the diviner to get him a nutrient solution.
I plan to research the drug mentioned in ancient books.
Although it was not developed at the time, the main reason was that Taoist practitioners held a disdainful attitude towards this kind of medicine.
So nobody really put their heart into developing it.
Maybe it's actually quite easy to develop?
Thanks to the fact that many e-books from the 21st century have been preserved to this day, he can access them online on his smart brain, and combine them with his own memories.
He believed he could find a clue, and that night he neither practiced meditation nor slept.
