My name is Qian Zilin. Since I came back in 1953, I have been trying to contact my friends in the United States.
Unfortunately, the letters I sent to many people fell on deaf ears. When the country told me that they had found that there were eight more people under the supervision of the Ugly Country.
We are currently negotiating and expect to be back in early autumn of 1955. I am happily counting the days on my fingers.
But who would have thought that the Ugly Country kept suppressing people with various excuses and refused to let go. From 1955 to 1957, no ships entered the port.
Just when I returned from my mission to Huasu with no hope left in my heart, I met my best friend's daughter in the office.
I was so happy at that time that I didn't know what to say, until the person in front of me told me that his friend had passed away. It was like pouring a bucket of water on my little flame.
It soaked me all over and extinguished my fantasy.
Yes, he should have known that the Ling couple were of noble character. If they had not been dangling the wish to return to their country, they would not have lived so long after such an insult.
They sacrificed one life to save six people and their children. What can I say to them?
I wanted to hug the person in front of me, but I remembered that Ling Yue was already an eighteen-year-old girl, and was no longer the little girl who used to eat at home when she was a child.
The way she looked at me was as if she was looking through me at someone else. I didn’t know who that person was, but it didn’t matter. Lingyue would still be his daughter in the future, and no one could take her away from her.
The document she wrote out made me understand why the Ugly Country wouldn't release them. Once they came into contact with these things, the Ugly Country would have kept them tightly under wraps. They would rather the Dragon Country never know about it.
Unfortunately, they forgot that perhaps it was because Ling Yue had been disguising herself too well all along, acting foolishly in front of outsiders, and they had never suspected that Ling Yue had the ability to remember everything she saw.
When she pointed out the errors in the document, I looked at her as if I had discovered a new world. I calculated it over and over again, and the conclusion I came to was that Ling Yue was correct.
I am very happy because our country is in great need of talents.
But this girl Ling Yue has been lying to me all along.
What do you mean by stupid? Look at this powerful and erudite body of knowledge. Does it look stupid at all?
I excitedly called the Forbidden City and told them that Ling Yue could only come to the Fifth Academy, and that the bandit Deng couldn't snatch her away from him.
I waited and waited, but no one came.
It wasn't until I heard that the bandit Deng had run to the compound that I admitted I got anxious and immediately wanted to grab my bag and head to the Forbidden City.
But Liang Tian stopped me and said, "If you go there now, won't everyone know that Ling Yue is different? Wait a minute, there's no news from the Forbidden City yet."
Yes, I can’t be impulsive. I suppressed my impatience, but I still couldn’t help it and scolded the people in the laboratory harshly when they got the data wrong.
As luck would have it, Ling Yue came over and was frightened to see these people being scolded to the point where they had no energy at all. I made an excuse at the time, thinking that it was okay to scold them later, just so as not to scare my little girl away.
Fortunately, Ling Yue didn't run away, but just turned to study astronomy. I was so angry and anxious that I wanted to scold Xiao Miaomiao as well.
We have many tasks to do, including missiles and satellites, and foreign countries are still blockading us. It would be a waste of life to do these things at this time.
But I held it in. I never thought in my life that my endurance could be so good.
Fortunately, Ling Yue got down to work not long after, and right from the start she delivered a major research, a physical one.
At that time, I was still wondering how Ling Yue had managed to do this since precision equipment was not available. When I went to the arsenal and saw Ling Yue using those scrap metals to adjust the equipment, I realized that she had already dealt with the equipment problem during the research process.
I asked, and she smiled and said, "It's called a contact lithography machine."
There are contact types and there are non-contact types. At that time, I was thinking whether I could carry out more sophisticated research and development.
I handed out the task, but it turned out to be very difficult, so I put the project aside and will work on it later when I have time.
Later, as one study after another appeared, I found that no matter how I modified the project submitted by Lingyue, it seemed to be standing still, and even fell behind expectations.
I was hit hard, so I let Lingyue handle it on her own, and I kept learning new knowledge. I started running between the Institute and Imperial University of Peking, and the library of Imperial University of Peking was a place I must visit.
If I go on a business trip, I always have a professional book in my bag.
Just when I thought I could fight side by side with Ling Yue, the bad news came.
This girl Ling Yue actually set up a trap with the Forbidden City and used herself as bait.
I was so angry and anxious that I wanted to pull Ling Yue in front of me and give her a couple of beatings.
Finally, I accepted Xiangzhong's suggestion and became a part of this scheme. I made a scene in front of the gate of the Forbidden City in public.
Afterwards, Xiangzhong naturally released me to Qinghai.
No matter how angry I am, I still have to protect my own children.
In Qinghai, I had to take care of the sick Mr. Zhu and worry about Lingyue's safety, so I finally fell ill.
Unfortunately, I recovered from my illness, but Mr. Zhu did not. I was extremely sad and couldn't explain to Lingyue.
I wanted to be a coward. I knew when Ling Yue came out, but I didn't dare to call back. I was worried that Ling Yue would ask and I wouldn't know how to answer.
But I still failed to be a coward. Ling Yue called me after all and I answered the phone.
Ling Yue on the phone was calm, but it also made me feel uneasy. I would rather she cried.
The next time I saw Ling Yue was when she came to pick up Mr. Zhu. Looking at her at that time, she still looked the same, but seemed much more mature and stable.
