Xiao Ruanruan met Grandpa Chen for the first time in the car that Chen Danqing picked them up to take to the laboratory.
Grandpa Chen's health was not as bad as rumored. Although he was very thin and looked a bit haggard, he was still in good spirits, which indicated that there was nothing wrong with his internal organs.
Upon seeing Old Master Chen, Xiao Ruanruan was certain that things were starting to get chaotic in the Chen family. It was indeed because neither Old Master Chen nor Chen Danqing were focused on the business.
The fact that Old Master Chen would spend so much money to support Chen Danqing's research suggests that his thoughts are the same as Chen Danqing's: he is determined to return to the time before the fire, and therefore no longer cares about worldly wealth or other material possessions.
only……
Little Softie sighed silently. A time machine is not a way to undo mistakes, and one's destiny cannot be changed simply by traveling back in time.
Like her, although she traveled back in time and changed the trajectory of her brothers' fates, the price she paid behind the scenes...
Actually, it wouldn't be a big deal if only she paid the price, but Gu Chen and Lu Wei also paid the price with her.
After Lu Wei was discharged from the hospital following his injury, he disappeared. She didn't know where he went, but she would occasionally receive a text message from him to let her know he was safe.
However, she didn't know how to tell Chen Danqing about these things.
However, after getting into the car, she found an opportunity to say to Chen Danqing, "Sister Danqing, can we skip the lab today? I want to go see your brother first."
The moment she uttered those words, not only did Chen Danqing look at her with obvious wariness, but even Old Master Chen became wary.
Little Ruanruan looked at the two of them and didn't find it strange.
However, she suddenly thought of the Li family, who were also eyeing Chen Jie. Given how protective Old Master Chen and Chen Danqing were of Chen Jie, they thought they could marry Li Wanjun to Chen Jie and thus obtain the Chen family's assets. They must be dreaming!
With her pure and clear eyes, Xiao Ruanruan looked at Grandpa Chen and Chen Danqing and said, "I learned a lot of medical skills from my three grandfathers. I want to try and see if I can cure your brother."
Chen Danqing hadn't answered yet when she heard this.
Grandpa Chen laughed first, his guard down considerably. Looking at Xiao Ruanruan, he said kindly, "Little girl, Danqing and I are already very grateful for your kindness."
"But you don't need to see Xiao Jie. Over the years, I've consulted every internationally renowned neurosurgeon and psychologist, but it's been to no avail."
Little Softie didn't say anything more.
She realized that the reason why Old Master Chen refused her was not entirely because he thought she couldn't cure Chen Jie, but also because they didn't want an outsider like her to see Chen Jie.
Although she didn't know why Grandpa Chen and Chen Danqing wanted to hide Chen Jie, it was their private matter, and she didn't want to pry.
Chen Danqing's laboratory is located in the suburbs of Beijing. From the outside, it looks like a resort, but inside, it is filled with all kinds of cutting-edge technology and precision instruments arranged in a clear and orderly manner.
Even the assistants they needed, Old Master Chen had already arranged everything.
Moreover, these assistants looked quite familiar, because most of their photos were posted on the honor wall of their gifted youth class, and they were all child prodigies.
Because the creation of a time machine requires the use of large amounts of radioactive materials during experiments and research, and even the driving material of the time machine requires the energy of antimatter, radiation protection suits must be worn throughout the experiments.
As for the anti-radiation suit, Chen Danqing had already made it to be custom-made for Xiao Ruanruan.
Xiao Ruanruan reluctantly locked herself inside the anti-radiation suit once again. One of the reasons she never wanted to get involved in scientific research was because she didn't want to wear this anti-radiation suit.
Even for the National Science and Technology Innovation Competition, she only plans to participate once, just to prove China's strength.
Unexpectedly, Chen Danqing has now conscripted him and made him wear these tattered clothes again.
She felt she should try to find out why Grandpa Chen and Chen Danqing were so persistent, and see if she could persuade them to give up this idea, since going back to the past is not something everyone can afford.
However, since Xiao Ruanruan had promised Chen Danqing, she still gave Chen Danqing her opinions very seriously when Chen Danqing was doing the design and experiment.
When it was time to eat, Xiao Ruanruan followed Chen Danqing out of the laboratory.
Chen Danqing is a very quiet person who rarely chats with others. Despite her young age, she has an old-fashioned demeanor and her temperament is quite similar to that of her older brother, Su Lei.
While in the lab, Xiao Ruanruan was thinking that if Su Lei and Chen Danqing were together, and they played a game where whoever spoke first lost, she wondered who would win.
After finishing her meal, Xiao Ruanruan finally couldn't hold back any longer. She looked at Chen Danqing with her bright, watery eyes and said very seriously, "Sister Danqing, have you ever thought about what you would do if you couldn't build a time machine even after decades or on the day you die?"
Even if you're still young, Grandpa Chen is quite old.
"I know you don't want me to see your brother in order to protect him, but do you know how much effort our predecessors have put into things like time machines, and they still haven't succeeded?"
"Then why don't we try again to see if we can cure your brother?"
Chen Danqing looked up at Xiao Ruanruan and asked, "Do you know why I asked you for help?"
Xiao Ruanruan was startled; she felt that Chen Danqing had already guessed it.
“You’re not like a little kid. Even though you act like one when you’re with your family, I know what it’s like to be a child prodigy at your age. And you are not!”
