Chapter 771: Same origin, haha
Yu Wanqing helped Lu Jingan into the car, and then asked in a low voice: "Uncle Lu, what is going on? Why did you say Sheng Mei was dead?"
That shouldn’t be the case. There is no news from Sichuan Province yet.
Is there anything in Sichuan Province that is not prosperous and beautiful?
After hearing this, Lu Jing'an's eyes instantly turned red, and tears rolled down uncontrollably: "My research has come to an end, and I was thinking of taking a few days off, but suddenly I received a call from an old friend. He said that he had found Sheng Mei, but she was no longer with us."
"He asked me if I wanted to come to Beijing."
When Lu Jingan said this, his hands were shaking: "Xiaowu, I was scared. I always felt that something was wrong. So after I arrived in Beijing, I didn't contact my friends immediately. I found a place to call you first."
"In this city of Jing, the only people I can trust are you and Aci."
After listening to this, Yu Wanqing looked at Lu Jingan and said, "Uncle Lu, you are right. This happened too suddenly. I don't know whether it is true or false."
"Do you have any ideas? Tell me."
Lu Jingan said: "Research results."
"I now suspect that there is a traitor in the research base, otherwise no one would know that my research has yielded results." The more Lu Jingan thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong, so he avoided his friends and called Xiaowu.
Yu Wanqing nodded after hearing this: "That makes sense. How about this, I'll take you to find someone first."
"Don't worry, this man is trustworthy. We can tell him about the matter and let him help us with the plan." Instead of going back to discuss this matter with A Ci, it is better to go directly to Huo Xi.
It is much easier for Huo Xi to mobilize people to investigate this matter than A Ci.
Lu Jingan had absolute trust in Yu Wanqing and her husband. When he heard her ask for help, he did not refuse but nodded woodenly.
Seeing his distracted look, Yu Wanqing sighed in her heart.
She drove Lu Jingan away from here. Not long after they left, someone came here with his photo looking for him.
Yu Wanqing drove to a department store and stopped. She said to Lu Jingan, "Please wait a moment. I'll be back soon."
Lu Jingan just nodded.
Not long after, Yu Wanqing came back with a lot of bags. She took out a thick coat and gave it to Lu Jingan: "Uncle Lu, please put on another coat first."
Judging from his appearance, he must have rushed to Beijing from the base immediately after receiving the news about his daughter.
"When I realized something was wrong, I left my luggage at the station," Lu Jing'an said. "If someone really wanted to get the research results from me, they would have found my luggage by now."
"I'm missing, and they're definitely looking for me."
Yu Wanqing nodded: "No need to bring luggage, you are more important than countless luggage."
These older generation scientists are so important, and we should protect every one of them.
"The enemy is determined to destroy us." Yu Wanqing said softly, "Fortunately you didn't fall for it, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous."
"Uncle Lu, you are my relative, I hope you are well."
Lu Jingan put on a thick coat and felt a little warmer. Then he came to his senses and looked at Yu Wanqing: "I know that I was impulsive this time."
"I should have thought twice."
"This is human nature." Yu Wanqing said as she drove, "You've been looking for Sheng Mei for so many years, and it's normal for you to be confused when you suddenly hear news about her."
"A lot of fathers would make the same choice as you."
Lu Jingan smiled bitterly: "But I forgot that I am a researcher and how many secrets I know."
"If I really fall into their hands, I would rather die than say anything I shouldn't say."
We can't let the research of so many people in the base day and night be destroyed just because of him.
Compared with the country's scientific research, his personal life and death is completely unimportant.
Yu Wanqing was silent. It was because she knew this would happen that she said just now that she hoped Uncle Lu was fine.
When passing a snack stand, Yu Wanqing got out of the car and bought a dumpling and some meat buns: "You must be hungry, eat quickly."
"I wanted to take you to a state-owned hotel, but I was worried that someone was eyeing all the major hotels in Beijing."
Lu Jingan took the buns and dumplings and said, "You are right to be concerned."
"It's been many years since we last met. The little girls back then have grown up and are now so careful and thorough in their work." Lu Jing'an sighed, "We are really getting old."
Yu Wanqing's eyes fell on Uncle Lu's white hair: "Your white hair has only grown in the past two days."
"You are worthy of being a doctor." Lu Jingan said while eating dumplings, "I was anxious, uncomfortable, and sad along the way. I thought too much and my hair started to grow white."
If this is just a game against himself, then it would be unfair for him to have these white hairs.
Yu Wanqing said: "When you got the news, you should have contacted us first so that we could investigate the matter."
"At that time, your Aunt Dong and Ah Nian also told me to slow down, but I was so upset and sad that I couldn't listen to them." At this point, Lu Jingan felt embarrassed: "I realized something was wrong after I got on the train."
Fortunately, I discovered something was wrong early.
Yu Wanqing smiled and said, "Fortunately you remembered to contact me."
Lu Jingan felt a little embarrassed.
Yu Wanqing took Lu Jing'an directly to Huo Xi's office. When they learned that she was here to see Director Huo, the staff did not dare to delay and reported the matter to their superiors.
Huo Xi personally went to the hall to greet Yu Wanqing: "Doctor Yu, why are you here?"
Yu Wanqing smiled and shook hands with Huo Xi: "I need your help with something."
"Let's go and talk inside." Huo Xi found that Yu Wanqing had no intention of introducing the old man next to him, so he didn't ask any more questions and directly took the man back to his office.
After closing the office door, Yu Wanqing began to introduce Lu Jingan.
When Huo Xi learned that the old man in front of him was from the research base, he was instantly in respect. He shook hands with Lu Jingan and greeted him.
After the three of them sat down, Yu Wanqing talked about Lu Jingan's daughter.
After hearing the last part, Huo Xi said directly: "Someone must have leaked the news. The person behind this must be after the research results this time."
"Let me handle this matter. I will not let you down."
Huo Xi was worried that Lu Jing'an didn't believe him, so he quickly explained, "I will also check to see if Comrade Lu Shengmei is in their hands. If she is, we will rescue her."
Lu Jingan quickly thanked him: "Wan Qing believes in Director Huo, so I naturally believe in you too. Please."
Huo Xi said, "Don't call me Director Huo. Aci and I are from the same clan. You are the elder of Aci and Wanqing, and also my elder. Just call me by my name."
Yu Wanqing glanced at Huo Xi with interest: "So, we are from the same clan."
