Chapter 146: Infatuated Lonely Soul

Previous Chapter

Early autumn 2174 A.D., Gita Peninsula

In the evening, on the east beach of Anle Island on the Gita Peninsula, several seabirds flap their wings and chase each other on the distant sea. A woman dressed in a blue shirt and white shorts walked barefoot on the sand that the waves had just receded, leaving footprints that were quickly submerged again by the waves that folded back, leaving no trace.

The woman has long hair and is slowly pacing on the beach, she looks to be in her 30s, mature and charming, and her facial features are very standard. It seems that there is always an inexplicable melancholy on her face, and her face is a little haggard and full of worries. After a while, the woman who had been bowing her head slowly raised her head, staring at the starry sky in the distance, her eyes were full of grievances and expectations, the tip of her high nose was suppressed by the lingering pain in her heart and twitched involuntarily, and two lines of tears suddenly slipped from the corners of her eyes.

"Bin, where are you! I met our daughter today...... Our daughter Bebe. ”

The woman cried out inwardly, her hands clasped tightly around her shoulders, tears blurring her vision, and the flood of tears slid down her face and nose at will. The woman bit her lower lip strongly, trying not to let herself sob. In the vast starry sky in the distance, the lover she had been waiting for for 20 years was lost in some corner and was never heard from.

This poor woman is the lively and cheerful Jiang Xiaoxi, with the help of Merlin Adams, she finally saw her daughter through the screen again after 17 years of absence.

Jiang Xiaoxi walked on the beautiful beach, thinking of her husband Yang Bin, who had been missing for 20 years, the person who had worried her for 20 years, the person who once made her feel that the world was meaningless, and how she wanted to tell him that she had finally met their grown daughter.

Jiang Xiaoxi's inner excitement and sorrow at this time made this woman who was unwilling to bow to fate finally burst into tears, and then cried silently and squatted on the beach.

"I'm so sorry if I bothered you, Lady Yang." I don't know when a man suddenly appeared behind Jiang Xiaoxi, and said respectfully.

Jiang Xiaoxi was originally squatting on the beach, but when she suddenly heard someone talking behind her, she hurriedly looked back, and when she saw the other party clearly, the whole person instantly froze.

Jiang Xiaoxi slowly stood up and turned around, looking at the earnest care and love in the other party's eyes, her tears slid down again, completely ignoring her image at this time: "Teacher!! ”

The person who came was Dr. Zhang Hongbing from the Lunar Academy of Natural Sciences, he handed Jiang Xiaoxi a handkerchief, looking at the helplessness and loneliness of his former beloved disciple now, he was extremely heartbroken, and the corners of his mouth moved for a long time before he squeezed out two words: "...... child"

"Teacher......" Jiang Xiaoxi took the handkerchief and wiped the tears on his face, then lowered his head apologetically, "I...... Woo woo...... "She finally broke out and began to cry.

"Creek...... I'm sure he'll be back. Looking at his proudest student, who had been missing for 20 years, Dr. Zhang trembled and went over to hold her shoulder and comforted her.

Zhang Hongbing looked at the girl in front of him who used to be enthusiastic and lively and loved life, but now she has become an infatuated lonely soul, and he is sure that she has suffered the most cruel devastation that the years have given her. Luckily, the two of them were finally reunited today, thanks to the accident that happened in Lake Taupo a week ago. When Zhang Hongbing learned from his student Wang Yuandong that they had accidentally killed a giant mutant salamander in Lake Taupo, he realized that Jiang Xiaoxi, a student he had been missing for 20 years, might be there.

Facts have proved that Zhang Hongbing's judgment is correct, Jiang Xiaoxi has amazing attainments and comprehension in the field of biological genes, and only she can create such a magical new species. Just yesterday, Zhang Hongbing finally overcame many difficulties with the help of his friends to contact him, a student who had not been heard from for many years, and he finally knew what happened to Jiang Xiaoxi 20 years ago, and the teacher and student secretly made an appointment to meet on this remote beach.

"Teacher......" Jiang Xiaoxi faced Dr. Zhang's comfort, and finally hugged the teacher helplessly and cried silently, she never thought that anyone would care about the pain in her heart.

"Kid...... I know your suffering, I'm sorry...... Hope I can help you in the future. Zhang Hongbing's heart was extremely uncomfortable, he gently patted Xiaoxi's shoulder, looked at the sky, and prayed to God to take care of this forgotten lonely woman.

At this time, the remnant sun on the horizon was slowly obscured by the clouds, and against the backdrop of the red glow, the beating sea was covered with red light, and the two shadows, one high and one short, slowly moved forward on the coastline.

This pair of teachers and students who have not seen each other for many years gathered, and they have endless words. Zhang Hongbing faced this disciple who was his most proud at the beginning, and at this time he had mixed feelings, Xiaoxi's knowledge and comprehension in the field of biological genes were so good, but unfortunately she was so infatuated with Yang Bin.

But no matter what, Zhang Hongbing couldn't find anything wrong with her, if there was a mistake, it might be her fate, of course, it was also Yang Bin's fate. For Jiang Xiaoxi, the sudden appearance of the mentor naturally became her spiritual support, after all, the mentor is the only person who cares about herself and knows her heart, and she pours out all her suffering.

The next day, on the top floor of the Goldleaf Building on the Geeta Peninsula, two tall and one short figures snuggled against the railing of the bay to the west, and the morning sun shone on them, leaving two long shadows on the ground.

The two men on the railing looked like a father and daughter, talking and laughing, as if the world around them had nothing to do with them. Behind them is a small garden with a few tables for people to rest. At this time, behind the father and daughter, who were talking and laughing, a woman slowly approached from a distance.

As the woman slowly approached, her eyes seemed to care very much about the woman in front of her who laughed from time to time, more precisely, because she saw the other party smiling so brightly, and a burst of jealousy sprouted in her heart, and she looked at the beautiful silhouette of the other party from behind with extremely impatient eyes, and then looked at the man who made her uncomfortable, and she felt a rare irritability.

This fair-skinned, smooth-skinned, long-haired, neatly dressed woman in a long white dress looked about 40 years old, she was the famous M.D. Monica, and she was looking at the two people on the railing in front of her, Zhang Hongbing and Jiang Xiaoxi, who had just reunited yesterday.

Monica received Dr. Zhang's invitation to go to Chengdu today, but she didn't know Jiang Xiaoxi, and she didn't expect this stranger to appear, so there was a misunderstanding in her heart at this time.

"Teacher, you mean...... Have you been working primarily on botanicals lately? ”

Jiang Xiaoxi seems to have endless words, since she saw the teacher again yesterday, the long-lost familiar feeling in her heart has reappeared, this feeling is the love of the world, the kind of care and dependence on the people around her, her heart that has been lonely for many years is once again ignited by the ancient teacher-student relationship and friendship, family affection mixed with emotions ignited hope, she seems to feel that Yang Bin is in this world, but he has not appeared for the time being.

"To be precise, I'm mainly working on crops and cultivated protein products, because food is very scarce on the moon, after all, we are also responsible for the food supply of the leaf space station. However, in my spare time, I also did some experiments on accurate gene positioning and synthesis, such as simulating the DNA arrangement of electric eels to crocodile embryos, and rearranging part of the DNA of crocodiles, which failed many times and also succeeded. I have large crocodiles in my arboretum that can discharge electricity, and there are also large lizards that can fly. ”

Zhang Hongbing knew that Jiang Xiaoxi's experiments were incredible, but he could be sure that all of what she did had her own purpose, and he expected Xiaoxi to slowly reveal her past and the secrets in her heart to himself.

"Teacher......" Xiaoxi turned her back against the railing, and then she noticed that there was an elegant woman in front of her who was looking at the two of them in a daze, but she didn't suspect that maybe someone else was just thinking about something on her mind.

Xiaoxi looked at Dr. Zhang disappreciatively, lowered her head and thought for a while, and said, "I've been thinking about a question recently......"

Zhang Hongbing saw that she didn't say anything for a long time, looked at her watch and said, "I'm listening, Xiaoxi." ”

Xiaoxi looked into the distance for a moment before saying, "I wonder if humans create a completely new human race, will we be replaced by them in the future?" ”

Zhang Hongbing's heart trembled when he heard this, Xiaoxi said that there was only one possibility, that is, she had already experimented with a new human being, she was both surprised and worried, and it was difficult to determine what attitude she should have towards this problem for a while, he was proud of the achievement of this most proud student in his heart, but he did not lose his mind after all.

"I'm sure you'll be responsible for what you're doing, Xiaoxi......" Zhang Hongbing said and turned around, only then did he find Monica behind him, who was already sitting there at some point.

Zhang Hongbing's gaze happened to collide with Monica, who smiled generously at him at this time, and then turned her face away.

"Monica! When did you arrive......" Zhang Hongbing hurriedly walked over, turned around and smiled apologetically at Xiaoxi, and Xiaoxi followed.

After Zhang Hongbing approached, Monica still didn't look back, she silently stared into the distance and smiled.

"Hey......" Zhang Hongbing had no choice but to walk in front of her, and Monica looked up at him and slowly stood up.

"Hello!" At this time, Xiaoxi, who was behind Zhang Hongbing, greeted Monica politely, she was a little surprised that the teacher had made an appointment with a friend, and from the other party's dress and polite smile, Xiaoxi felt that the other party should be a top person in a certain field of the Lunar Academy of Natural Sciences.

"Hello...... Monica dodged Zhang Hongbing directly, walked behind him and shook hands with Jiang Xiaoxi.

"Monica Lee!"

"Jiang Xiaoxi, you can call me Xiaoxi." Xiaoxi kindly stretched out her hand and clasped hands with each other while introducing herself: "I am a former student of Dr. Zhang......"

Monica was stunned for a moment, not quite sure what the other party meant, and hurriedly blinked to try to hide the unnaturalness on her face, then looked sideways at Zhang Hongbing and said slowly: "Former student...... How come I have never heard you mention it? I mean, you...... Former students. ”
