Chapter 115 Metaphysics Live Broadcast + Raising Children 39
"Brother, I just finished my work and have a month's vacation!" Chen Zhao was very excited.
In order to maintain confidentiality, she has not been able to go home for one year and eight months. Although Xiao Yan often visits her, the nature of going home and staying at the research institute is always different.
Xiao Yan had just finished his daily live broadcast of the three gossips, and was very happy to hear that Chen Zhao could have a holiday.
"Okay, when will you arrive?"
The research base is located in the deserted Gobi Desert, and researchers have special arrangements for transportation back home. Because Chen Zhao is so outstanding, they are even equipped with special security personnel to prevent intentional harm.
These security personnel are all selected from the army, and each one is an elite in the army. This shows the importance the country attaches to this research project and the importance it places on scientific researchers.
"We'll probably be at the airport around 8 a.m. tomorrow."
Xiao Yan estimated the time and said, "Then I'll pick you up at the airport tomorrow."
"Oh, I'm not a child anymore. I can go back by myself."
As his younger sister grew up and had her own ideas, Xiao Yan felt a sense of loss like an old father.
"Okay, then be careful. When you come back, I'll make you some braised pork."
Chen Zhao doesn't like eating fatty meat, but he likes the braised pork that is stewed until it is soft and tender, fatty but not greasy, especially the potatoes that have absorbed the gravy. When paired with rice, he can eat two big bowls in one go.
The two talked for a while before Xiao Yan hung up the phone and prepared to go out to buy ingredients.
Over the years, his abilities have been valued by the country, and they did want to provide him with security personnel, but Xiao Yan could protect himself. To be honest, with his strength, those security personnel would not be of much help to him except depriving him of his privacy and solitude, so he politely declined the offer.
He still lives in the Nancheng Garden that he rented before, but he doesn't rent it. Instead, he buys it from the landlord because moving is really troublesome and he doesn't like others touching his things. So after negotiations, the landlord agreed very readily because Xiao Yan also helped them a lot.
After changing my clothes, the doorbell rang.
When the door opened, a lady in her late forties appeared.
The lady was dressed very simply, had short hair and was carrying a bag.
"Master, these are the chestnuts I roasted. They are grown in my hometown. Would you like to try them?"
This lady was his upstairs neighbor, and she was the woman who was unconscious when he first moved in.
Her daughter did have a car accident, but it was caused by human error, and the culprits were her ex-husband and his mistress.
The lady and her ex-husband were college classmates. They met on a blind date after graduation and got married after dating for a few years.
She is hardworking and capable, and runs a company with her ex-husband. However, after the company was established, her ex-husband despised her for being old and ugly, so he found a new love and had an affair with his secretary.
Divorce will result in the division of property, and the ex-husband was reluctant to part with it, so he had the idea of killing his wife and deliberately gave her drugs that caused mental disorder.
In an accident, the daughter discovered that her ex-husband was cheating on her. The ex-husband also became suspicious and killed his own daughter. He gave his daughter psychiatric drugs, which caused the car accident.
The lady has always suspected that there was something wrong with her daughter's car accident, but she has no evidence. In addition, she has become confused due to long-term use of psychiatric drugs. If it were not for Xiao Yan's help, she would not only be unable to find out the truth about her daughter's car accident, but she would also be assassinated by her ex-husband.
Speaking of which, the person who provided the evidence was her ex-husband's mistress.
The mistress only likes her ex-husband's money and has no intention of spending her life with him. When her ex-husband tells her the truth after getting drunk, the mistress is terrified because her ex-husband even dares to attack his original wife and his own daughter. Who knows if he will get tired of the old and fall in love with the new one one day and even attack her?
She thought about calling the police, but she was afraid of her ex-husband's cruelty and had no evidence, so she had to bite the bullet and pretend she knew nothing. When the lady came to her, she agreed to cooperate and finally sent her ex-husband to prison.
The father killing his son and the husband killing his wife were too cruel, so the law eventually sentenced him to death.
Now, she has gotten rid of her dependence on drugs, but sometimes her reactions are still slow and she forgets things. However, she still manages the company well. When she has nothing to do, she does charity work and likes to feed her benefactor Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan refused many times, but he couldn't persuade her and had to accept the feeding.
Of course, Xiao Yan felt that she liked Chen Zhao more. Every time Chen Zhao came back, she fed him more frequently than before, which showed that she really liked Chen Zhao.
Xiao Yan invited her in, but she refused: "I have to go to the welfare home later." The lady looked at Xiao Yan and asked: "Are you going out?"
Xiao Yan is a very homely person. Because he has helped many neighbors, people here are very respectful of him. They also know that he doesn't like to be disturbed. In addition, over the years of getting along with him, they have seen many strange people visiting him, and even people from the army came, so they also have a heavy filter for Xiao Yan.
Worried that Xiao Yan would be assassinated by someone with ulterior motives, retired uncles and aunts would sit in the community garden when they had nothing to do, watching for any suspicious people.
What's more, they actually caught a few spies, and their community was even awarded the Most Enthusiastic Community Award by the relevant authorities!
Xiao Yan nodded: "Zhao Zhao will be home tomorrow. She likes you very much. Please ask Sister Dong and the others to come over for lunch."
Sister Dong is the leader of the square dance and also the leader of the enthusiastic masses. She loves Xiao Yan so much that when he is on a business trip, these enthusiastic neighbors help take care of him, so Xiao Yan is very grateful to them.
Hearing this, the lady smiled brightly: "Zhao Zhao will be back tomorrow? Fine, I won't be polite with you. Tomorrow I will come over with Sister Dong and the others to have dinner."
After going out, Xiao Yan went to a nearby shopping mall to buy potatoes, pork belly, and some fresh ingredients.
The next morning, Xiao Yan got up early to marinate the meat.
At the same time, Chen Zhao just got off the plane.
At the research base, Chen Zhao has her own personal assistant. In addition, the research base is heavily guarded, so security personnel are mostly deployed when she returns home.
The security comrade beside her has been protecting her for almost five years. As one of the young scientific researchers in the institute, he has always treated her like a younger sister.
Although Comrade Anbao is petite, she is surprisingly strong. She has won the first place in the international special elite forces and various international competitions, which is evident from her appearance.
"Sister Ming, I can do it myself."
Sister Ming snatched the heavy suitcase from Chen Zhao's hand without saying anything. "With your body, even an 800-meter run would make you breathless. Don't push yourself."
For the health of scientific researchers, the base not only has a gym, but also encourages them to exercise regularly.
Chen Zhao is very talented in scientific research, but he is a well-known loser in sports, and it is common for him to be at the bottom of the class. As an instructor in the base, Sister Ming naturally knows Chen Zhao's abilities, so she joked about it.
Chen Zhao is not shy either. When she first joined the research institute, she was very shy. However, during work, she was so angry at her colleagues' various outrageous actions that her true nature was exposed, and she developed a bad temper and a thick skin.
To be honest, such a simple thing has been emphasized many times and documents have been issued countless times, but some people still make mistakes for some reason!
As one of the important participants in many projects, Chen Zhao often needs to clean up the mess after these people make mistakes. If she doesn't have a hot temper, who will?
At work, all you have to do is scold your colleagues and your boss to prevent yourself from developing breast hyperplasia.
Besides, how could she be scolding her colleagues? She was just trying to prevent them from being evaluated! Fortunately, her colleagues knew the difference between good and bad. They would give her snacks when they had nothing to do, help her with trivial matters like getting food, and didn't hold a grudge. They would even humbly ask her questions. But this wasn't enough to keep her calm when things went wrong at work!
Unable to snatch Sister Ming's hand, Chen Zhao said with a grin, "How can I compare with you? Oh, by the way, I need to go to the bathroom. Sister Ming, are you coming?"
The airplane meal was very rich and the yogurt was delicious, so much so that I ate too much and felt like going to the bathroom.
"I'll go with you."
Sister Ming didn't want to go to the bathroom. Because of her security duties, she would restrain her eating habits. She was worried about Chen Zhao's safety, so she went there together.
Technology is very advanced nowadays, even airport toilets have introduced electronic technology.
The number of available toilets can be seen from the electronic display outside.
After washing his hands and walking out of the public restroom, Chen Zhao was stopped by a man with a terrifying face.
"Zhao Zhao, I'm your brother Lu Fan! Don't you remember me?"
Chen Zhao: “???”
Looking at the strange man who was stopped outside by Sister Ming, Chen Zhao was a little puzzled.
Her only brother is Xiao Yan, where do the others come from?
Chen Zhao remained polite: "You've got the wrong person. I don't know you."
This man is Lu Xingzhi's son Lu Fan. He was reborn a year ago and found that his life had undergone earth-shaking changes.
He should have been enjoying wealth and glory, but when he woke up, he found that the Gu family was ruined. His father had been sentenced to death and was no longer alive. His mother became insane and was locked up in a mental hospital. His grandparents raised him until he was eighteen and then kicked him out of the house because he was an ungrateful person.
He was not good at studying and had no skills, so he could only help others move bricks.
After his rebirth, he wanted to make money with his ability as a prophet, but the world had changed. Without the ability of a prophet, and because he was too ambitious and unwilling to work for others, he ultimately could not escape the fate of working for others.
He thought about it for a long time and contacted his good friend Gu Mingyu from his previous life, but Gu Mingyu had already been locked up in police station for committing a crime.
Lu Fan felt that Chen Zhao must have been reborn just like him, or even earlier than him. Everything that happened to the Lu family now was Chen Zhao's revenge!
Lu Fan hated Chen Zhao and wanted to take revenge on this ungrateful person, but after a year of negotiation, he changed his mind.
He had inquired and found out that Chen Zhao should have seized the opportunity based on his memories from his previous life.
Lu Fan knew that Chen Zhao was very smart, so she must be very rich!
Hearing Chen Zhao's words, Lu Fan was furious and threatened: "Stop pretending! I know you came back from there too!"
He glanced at Sister Ming, who had a curvy figure, with lustful eyes, and felt a burning sensation in his belly.
When he gets to the top, he will have sex with this woman!
Sister Ming looked at Lu Fan warningly: "Watch your eyes."
Lu Fan didn't take Sister Ming's words to heart at all. In his opinion, women were not presentable, just like his crazy mother, who could only survive by relying on men.
"If you don't want me to expose your secret, transfer five million to me now. Oh no, give me ten million first, and then I'll ask you for more when it's not enough." He said it as a matter of course, as if Chen Zhao owed him something.
Chen Zhao: “???”
