Xiao Hong and Zhou Xiaoman settled down in Fengcheng. A day later, Xiao Feng drove back with a car full of stuff. There were specialties from his hometown in the northwest, and gifts that Xiao Hong prepared for Wang Shuxiu and Lu Lingxi, which filled up the trunk in a mess.
I heard that Xiao Hong and Zhou Xiaoman were planning to spend the New Year with Xiao Feng this time. The two brothers' parents and relatives were all gone, and Xiao Feng used to go back to his hometown to spend the New Year. Now Xiao Feng has a family, so Xiao Hong and Zhou Xiaoman decided to just come over. There are still two months before the New Year, and the two planned to go to Zhongjing to see Xiao Feng after he got married.
Xiao Hong privately told Xiao Feng that traveling to Zhongjing was secondary, and Xiaoman wanted to have a physical checkup. The two had been married for ten years, but they had no children. They had checked before, and they said there was nothing wrong with her body. But if there was nothing wrong with her body, why couldn't she get pregnant? Xiao Hong himself didn't care, so it didn't matter if they didn't have children, and it would be good for them to live together for the rest of their lives. But Zhou Xiaoman couldn't get over this hurdle, and felt that she was sorry for Xiao Hong if she didn't have children.
"You and your sister-in-law should hurry up and have a baby. Of course, it doesn't matter if your sister-in-law doesn't want to have one. Xiaoxi is a good child, and it's no different from a biological child. Men should be more open-minded. It doesn't matter whether you have children or not, whether they are your biological children or not. Your wife is the one you will spend your life with."
Xiao Feng thought about his elder brother's advice to him, smiled and shook his head. He and Xiaohua had not planned to have children since they got married. Xiaohua was not young anymore, and it was too dangerous to have a child at this age. Just like what his elder brother said, Xiaoxi was fine, and no different from a biological child. He had never even thought about getting married before, but now he had a wife and children, so why bother?
He was open-minded and didn't take it seriously. Instead, when he talked to Wang Shuxiu about his sister-in-law's coming, Wang Shuxiu thought of something and hesitated to discuss with him, "How about we have a baby?"
Xiao Feng was stunned. He didn't expect Wang Shuxiu to have such an idea. "Having Xiaoxi is enough. Why bother with that at your age?"
He said it casually, and Wang Shuxiu immediately said in dissatisfaction: "Do you think I'm too old?"
Xiao Feng was surprised that no matter if a woman was 20, 30 or 40, she couldn't stand being told she was old. He looked Wang Shuxiu up and down and felt that if Xiaohua went out and said she was in her early 40s, no one would believe her. But if she had a baby, Xiao Feng pondered, "...she is indeed a little old."
“…”
Xiao Feng didn't have much experience in coaxing women, but he knew that the next words would determine whether he would sleep on the bed or on the floor at night. "Didn't we agree before? I will treat Xiaoxi as my own son. Since we already have Xiaoxi, there is no need to have another one. Xiaohua, you are also an elderly mother at your age, which is not good for your health. What will Xiaoxi think if we have one?"
He said all these from Wang Shuxiu's perspective. Wang Shuxiu felt relieved and no longer hesitated. She felt that she should have a child with Xiao Feng. No matter how good Xiaoxi was, her surname was Lu, and she would be different from Xiao Feng's own children. Marriage was like this, the two of them understood each other. Xiao Feng always took her into consideration, and she couldn't be selfish and only think about herself. Speaking of her health, she didn't know if it was her illusion. Although she was very busy recently, she didn't feel tired at all. It seemed that she had returned to her youth and her mental state was very good.
As for Xiaoxi, Wang Shuxiu glared at Xiao Feng, "It was Xiaoxi who told me to have another child. He wanted a younger brother or sister."
Xiao Feng laughed and hugged Wang Shuxiu, "Okay, you can't have a child just because you want to. Just go with the flow."
The two of them agreed on this matter and didn't do anything on purpose. After all, they were really old, and it was hard to say whether they could have children.
For several days, Xiao Hong called Xiao Feng and his family to have dinner together in the evening. Dahei and Xiaohei always came, but Yan Yue had no "status" and could only stay at home alone. Yan Yue was unhappy, but he couldn't go with them, so he could only turn his depression into work motivation. When Lu Lingxi was eating out, he called a meeting of Dezhi people at home. All of a sudden, the senior executives of Dezhi called An Jie one after another, asking if Yan Yue was dumped. The former workaholic boss was back, and even more crazy. He always liked to hold meetings abroad at four or five in the morning, under the pretext of taking care of the boss's time difference.
Under Yan Yue's abnormal supervision, the cooperation between Dezhi and NT went very smoothly. This was not the first time the two had cooperated. Although the last cooperation failed due to NT's own reasons, the two sides had established good mutual trust. This time Yan Yue invited NT to invest in the research and development of winter ling grass, and NT immediately agreed.
It has to be said that Su Lang's application materials were very well done and quite provocative. Even a fool would think that this project has great prospects and they will definitely make money as long as they invest. Of course, all this is premised on the smooth progress of the research. Su Lang's colleague, the head of the institution, Huo Weiping, is very confident about this. He discovered the role of wintergrass in the treatment of pre-leukemia. He is very optimistic about the research of wintergrass. The only problem is the lack of money. After Su Lang approached Dezhi Investment, Huo Weiping specifically asked his foreign friends to check and confirm that Dezhi Investment is not a scam but a real investment company. When Dezhi approached NT, Huo Weiping was even more relieved. The three parties discussed the specific matters of the cooperation several times, and the cooperation was basically finalized.
Yan Yue's progress was smooth, which meant Huo Weiping rejected Hepu's cooperation proposal. Whether Yin Ya or Yan Shihui personally sent people over, Huo Weiping was not interested in their proposals. He had no good feelings for these large group companies. No matter how good the initial talks were, when the research results came out, they would always find a way to take the research results for themselves. By then, he would be an ordinary researcher and would not have a say at all. Compared with these large companies, he would rather raise venture capital, where it would be clear who paid and who worked.
Yan Shihui was able to remain calm despite Huo Weiping's refusal to change his mind, but Yin Ya was getting anxious. Now Hepu was struggling, and if she missed the opportunity to develop biotechnology, she would be completely excluded from Hepu's core circle. Thinking of Lu Weian's last proposal, Yin Ya made up her mind to return to Fengcheng again.
Two days later, Yan Yue, NT and Huo Weiping signed a cooperation agreement, but just one day later, another person in charge of Huo Weiping's organization, Zhang Jian, chose to break up with Huo Weiping and took his research materials to Zhongjing Hepu. Huo Weiping was furious and worried that this incident would affect his cooperation with Dezhi and NT. Who knew that Yan Yue and NT didn't care.
This kind of thing is very common, and they are all prepared for it. Hepu's doing this will only ruin its reputation. In the long run, it is too short-sighted, especially for a new biotech company. What's more, Huo Weiping is the main force of this research. Zhang Jian was just helping Huo Weiping before. As long as Huo Weiping doesn't lose his mind, they will definitely be the winners in the end. And Yan Yue didn't say that he has a trump card - plant evolution, which Hepu can't do no matter what.
The matter was soon settled. Lu Lingxi only knew that Yan Yue decided to invest in Su Lang's research, and didn't know about the following events. It was not until Mr. Su came to the store and talked about it indignantly that Lu Lingxi learned that Su Lang's organization had split into two parts, and the other person in charge had betrayed them and ran away with their research materials.
Lu Lingxi has been quite busy these days, and Yan Yue is also busy with cooperation matters. The two of them just talk before going to bed at night. Yan Yue doesn't even have time to be intimate with him, let alone talk about these things that will spoil the fun.
After seeing off Mr. Su, Lu Lingxi took out the mutant winter grass from behind the cashier counter. The winter grass had grown well in the past few days, with lush colors and looked very pleasing, but there was still no sign of evolution.
"Why don't you evolve?" Lu Lingxi whispered to the winter grass. He was not in a hurry before, thinking that the winter grass would evolve slowly. But thinking about what Grandpa Su said, Lu Lingxi began to get anxious. Yan Yue didn't say anything, and Lu Lingxi couldn't help wondering if Yan Yue was afraid that he would worry? What if Yan Yue's investment failed this time? It would be okay if he lost to others, but if he lost to Hepu, Yan Yue would definitely feel uncomfortable.
These thoughts were in a mess. Lu Lingxi wanted to do something to help Yan Yue, but he didn't know anything. The only thing he could do seemed to be to make this winter grass evolve as soon as possible. But why didn't this winter grass evolve? While Lu Lingxi was thinking, a white panel suddenly flew out and floated in front of him.
Botanical name: Rabdosia rubescens
Plant requirements: None
Plant survival rate: Very high
If plants are disturbed by the host's mind, will they be forced to evolve?
The green text at the bottom of the panel caught Lu Lingxi's attention. He was slightly startled, but quickly reacted. The host should refer to himself, and mental interference, could it be referring to his strong desire to make the winter grass evolve?
No matter what, Lu Lingxi decisively chose yes.
The host forcibly turns on plant evolution, deducting -5 from the natural force. The plant meets the evolution conditions and begins to evolve.
Lu Lingxi: “…”
Since he used up the natural force last time, he has tried every possible way but still failed to collect any natural force. He didn't expect that he would owe the panel five points of natural force at once. Fortunately, the winter grass finally evolved, although the panel did not indicate the direction of its evolution. Lu Lingxi carefully placed the winter grass flower pot behind the cashier counter, ready to take it back to Yan Yue in the evening.
When it was almost time to get off work, Wang Shuxiu called again, still talking about having dinner together in the evening. Lu Lingxi made an excuse to refuse. Hearing that there was something going on in the store, Wang Shuxiu didn't say anything. Lu Lingxi breathed a sigh of relief and sent a text message to Yan Yue, saying that he could go home after work tonight.
Yan Yue's text message came back quickly, "I'll pick you up."
"good."
Lu Lingxi put away his phone and thought about going to see the winter ling grass. He was shocked when he saw it. The winter ling grass, which was still lush and green at noon, withered quickly in one afternoon, and all the leaves fell off.
A mental scan spread out, and a white panel floated in front of him.
Plant name: First-class variation of winter grass
Plant requirements: None
Plant survival rate: Very high
The panel showed that there was nothing wrong with the winter grass, but why did all the leaves fall off? Lu Lingxi looked at the bare winter grass and suddenly had an idea. He thought of the reason why the winter grass had not evolved. Unlike most plants that would go dormant in winter, the unique properties of the winter grass determined that it would grow in a different form in winter. He had been keeping the winter grass in the store, and the room temperature was maintained above 20 degrees. The winter grass had not gone through the necessary growth stage, so it naturally would not evolve.
Thinking this way, Lu Lingxi simply placed the winter ling grass outside the micro-garden. After a while, the winter ling grass plant was covered with ice flakes of various shapes as thin as cicada wings. Unlike the white ice flakes Lu Lingxi saw in the picture, the ice flakes in front of him had a hint of light blue, shining under the light, with an indescribable beauty.
"Xiaoxi."
As soon as Yan Yue got out of the car, he saw Lu Lingxi squatting at the door of the store, looking at something.
"Brother Yan." Lu Lingxi's eyes lit up, and he excitedly pulled Yan over to look at the winter grass. "Look, the winter grass has evolved." He stretched out his hand and poked the ice on the winter grass. As he moved, the ice trembled slightly, like a butterfly spreading its wings.
The corners of Yan Yue's lips curled up, forming a gentle arc on his face. He ruffled Lu Lingxi's hair and praised him generously, "Xiaoxi is really amazing."
Lu Lingxi laughed, "Brother Yan, do you think Dong Ling grass looks good like this?"
"nice."
"I think it's pretty, too." Lu Lingxi said seriously, "I heard that many places choose to cultivate winter rubescens as winter landscape plants. If Dr. Su's research doesn't make any progress, we can also try to work in this direction."
He said it seriously, and Yan Yue's heart suddenly trembled. Lu Lingxi obviously knew the news of Huo Weiping's organization from somewhere, and comforted him in this way. Yan Yue felt so soft in his heart, and looked at Lu Lingxi warmly, "Okay, I'll listen to Xiaoxi."
