Chapter 12: Back in the day
Nan Zhiqiao was silent for a moment, "I won't do better than you." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ infoβ
After spending more than a week with Nan Zhiqiao, it was the first time that Ye Zhenzhen had heard the words of praise from his mouth.
Seeing that Nan Zhiqiao seemed to be in a good mood, and I don't know where she got the courage, Ye Zhenzhen spoke: "Senior Nan, since you can't sleep, can I ask a question?"
"Just ask. β
"How did you become a great god?"
Nan Zhiqiao was stunned: "Great God?"
Ye Zhenzhen explained: "It's just that why are you so powerful, you are not a few years older than me, but you are already a god in the microbiology academic community, and the reason why I applied to come to the Pasteur Institute is because of the great god Louis Pasteur." β
Nan Zhiqiao: "First of all, I'm not a big god, I'm just doing what I like, and I'm more serious in my work, again, Ye Zhenzhen, you can't have a personality cult when doing research, which will affect your judgment." β
Here it is again, with a preachy tone, Ye Zhenzhen muttered in her heart, but she still looked humbly taught: "Thank you Senior Nan for reminding me, I will pay attention to it in the future, but if you do what you like, you can become a god?"
"Return the gods!"
Ye Zhenzhen immediately corrected it, "I made a mistake just now, I'm not a god, I'm an expert, and scientific research is also something I like, and I will become a god in the future?"
Nan Zhiqiao: "As long as you get rid of the sloppy problem, everyone can do it." β
It's over, it's time to mention gel electrophoresis again, Ye Zhenzhen hurriedly changed the topic, "Senior Nan, tell me about your school days, I want to know what the great god's student days were like." β
"Great God?"
Ye Zhenzhen couldn't change it for a while, so she simply said: "Great God is another name for experts in our generation, you and I are only six years apart, there should be no generation gap." β
Nan Zhiqiao was less than thirty years old, and he didn't want to be said to have a generation gap with young people, so he had no choice, so he replied helplessly: "Whatever you want." β
Ye Zhenzhen asked: "Senior Nan, when you were studying, were you a scholar?"
"It's not. β
"How is it possible? A great god like you must be a scholar when he is studying. β
Nan Zhiqiao: "When I was in college, my roommate gave me a nickname, which seemed to be called 'Xueshen'. β
Ye Zhenzhen was speechless, no wonder, "Xueshen" is more powerful than "Xueba", and "Great God" was of course "Xueshen" before.
Ye Zhenzhen asked: "When you are studying, what else is interesting?"
"It's nothing, every day is just reading books, studying, sports and the like, and also, just going to work to earn tuition. β
"Oh, it's about the same as me, when I was in college, it was the same, reading books and taking classes, well, I worked as a tutor for a while, and then I had time to go shopping with friends, don't you have any friends?"
"Yes, not much, because I skipped a few levels, so I am younger than my classmates, but I feel that I am more mature than them. β
Well, the heart of the great god is also different from ordinary people, Ye Zhenzhen thought to herself, but she echoed: "I also think so, I am the same age as my classmates, so I have many friends." β
The topic unconsciously turned to Zhen Zhen, Ye Zhen has a characteristic of urinating since she was a child, the more nervous she is, the more she talks, and as soon as the topic is opened, she can't stop.
From kindergarten to university, from hometown to metropolis, from China to France, what happened along the way, Ye Zhenzhen talked about it one by one, Nan Zhiqiao listened quietly, sometimes after a long time, Nan Zhiqiao would have no sound, Zhen Zhen was worried that Nan Zhiqiao was asleep, and would ask, are you still listening?
Nan Zhiqiao let out a slight "um", which was regarded as a response.
Ye Zhenzhen continued, and the topic finally turned to the one that she encountered when she was a child, the most impressive, the most terrifying, and the one thing that Zhen Zhen was most reluctant to mention, if it weren't for today's situation, it felt like a last word tonight, although the last words were a little long, Zhen Zhen would not mention the sad things of that year again.
Ye Zhenzhen: "I still remember, when I was just in junior high school, because I was far away from home, so I chose to live in the school, at that time it was a relatively early age to live in the school, it was 02 years, and the school was only half a year, our school was suddenly closed and quarantined, because there was a classmate, during the Spring Festival, who came back from traveling in the south and brought back a disease, which led to many students in the school being infected, so our entire school was quarantined. β
"You mean the SARS epidemic in '03?" Nan Zhiqiao suddenly asked.
"You know all this?"
"The SARS epidemic, people all over the world know about it, I just speculate that the closure and quarantine of your school is because of that epidemic. β
Ye Zhenzhen: "That's right, it's the SARS epidemic, at that time, I was quarantined not long after I lived in the school, I couldn't go home, my parents couldn't come to visit, and my normal study and life were disrupted, but what scared me the most was the feeling of being so close to death. β
Nan Zhiqiao: "The SARS epidemic did cause a lot of social panic, but the epidemic itself was not serious, and there should be nothing wrong with your school. β
Ye Zhenzhen smiled: "Yes, there were no deaths in the school, but the feeling of panic at that time, I am still unforgettable, and even left sequelae, before the SARS epidemic, every time I was nervous, I would dream of the exam, either I couldn't find the exam room, or the exam questions would not be done, but after the SARS epidemic, every time I was nervous, I would dream of the scene when I lived in the school at night, it was too scary." β
Nan Zhiqiao: "You are the sequelae left by the traumatic stress reaction, and you need to do psychotherapy to fully recover, otherwise, that nightmare will follow you for the rest of your life." β
"Ah, really, is that nightmare going to stay with me for the rest of my life?"
"If you don't do it, it's very likely. β
Ye Zhenzhen was silent for a moment and muttered in a low voice: "But I think that after this incident, my original nightmare of campus isolation should disappear, because this 'in-place isolation' in Paris, France will become a new nightmare." β
Nan Zhiqiao was stunned for a moment, but quickly said: "No, I don't want to appear in your dreams every night, and it's a nightmare, so we will definitely be fine, sleep, there will be experiments tomorrow." β
Nan Zhiqiao's slightly commanding tone made Ye Zhenzhen unable to continue the topic, but the sentence "We will definitely be fine" made Zhenzhen's heart a lot more stable.
Ye Zhenzhen gathered the quilt, lay down in her clothes again, and gradually fell asleep with the noise of the instrument and the flickering warning lights outside the laboratory.
ββ
In the middle of the night, a soft, but painful sound was harsh in the quiet room.
Nan Zhiqiao was awakened by the sound of painful moans, sat up, and listened carefully, it was Ye Zhenzhen on the other side of the table.
"Ye Zhenzhen, what's wrong with you?"
There was no response but continued with moans of pain.
"Ye Zhenzhen, what's wrong with you? If you're awake, squeak. β
Still no response, moaning in pain on and off.
An ominous premonition came to his heart, and Nan Zhiqiao raised his voice: "Ye Zhenzhen, if you don't speak again, I'll pass." β
Within three seconds, there was still no response, Nan Zhiqiao immediately stood up, turned the corner of the table, and saw Ye Zhenzhen curled up in the quilt, shivering.
