Ireland's empty and beautiful countryside is quiet in the afternoon, and even in winter, this city with a temperate maritime climate is not cold at all. Next to the pastoral hotel is a huge meadow, the lazy sun is soft and warm, and the crisp insect chirping makes people feel calm.

A white jet was parked at a private airport on the side of the lawn, and the owner of the countryside had apparently agreed to the plane's landing.

"Let's go, let's have a big meal!" Olivia patted Xiao Baiyu on the shoulder, lifted the corner of her skirt, and stepped onto the plane.

"Do you think I'm the kind of kid who can be bribed for a big meal?" Xiao Baiyu rolled his eyes, but his body followed honestly.

Under Olivia's "instigation", Xiao Baiyu followed her to London after the banquet that day. This city has a special meaning to him, he knows that this is the place where his father once lived, and every moonlit night of Xiao Yifan's childhood was spent in the company of the gentle moonlight shining on the Thames.

He'd been here before, but that was when he couldn't remember, and he wouldn't have stopped and experienced the city as well as he did today. The lights on the London Bridge were still bright, and the cold wind blowing on the bridge made Xiao Baiyu wrap his coat more tightly.

The night was already a little deep, the pedestrians on the bridge were sparse, the cold starlight sprinkled on the earth, and the moon bends reflected in the river were shattered by the sparkling waves.

"Daddy, where did he like to go back then...... didn't get a response, Xiao Baiyu turned his head to look at Olivia suspiciously, and found that she was not standing side by side with him on the bridge to enjoy the night view of the Thames, but with her back to herself, facing the lonely street.

Just as he was about to stretch out his hand to ask something, Xiao Baiyu suddenly noticed a drop of crystal brilliance falling, and only then did he notice that the petite body that had hidden himself in his coat was trembling a little.

Xiao Baiyu's hand froze in mid-air, and he didn't continue the next action, but turned his head again, leaned on the railing, and looked at the river in distraction, not knowing what he was thinking.

......

"Did you really decide to do this?" Meng Xueying looked at the agreement in her hand, frowned, and looked at Xiao Yifan with an unkind expression.

"This was decided in the name of Xiaozhi Tiandu, and the people who participated in the signing of this agreement are all high-level officials, and I can't admit that this is my decision. Xiao Yifan said solemnly.

"Isn't this suggestion from you?!" Meng Xueying looked at Xiao Yifan, her eyes burning with anger.

"In order to guarantee that his peculiarity can be preserved, we had to do this. After all, there is no precedent for us to study this level of gene activation, so everything has to be focused on the big picture, and the one from the Huang Tian clan is an example. Xiao Yifan smiled a little bitterly.

"Don't use the 'big picture' rhetoric in front of me, and don't use the guys who walk in the blue dust as examples. Meng Xueying's voice was clear and pleasant, but it was permeated with a bone-chilling coldness, "The things researched by the scientific research department are not guaranteed to have no side effects, right?"

"Nature comes with its own risks. ”

"No, I don't agree, he's my son, and I won't allow you to touch him. ”

"......" Xiao Yifan laughed helplessly, as if he was not my son, "This is also a kind of protection in disguise for Bai Yu, invoking that overloaded genetic ability when the bones, nerves, and brain are not fully developed will seriously damage his genome, and it is easy to be targeted by some secret forces." ”

"Those rats?" ha, worthy of being a mother and son, the way they address their opponents is the same. Meng Xueying pursed her lips, "I can take care of him until all aspects of his body reach the standard of Xiaozhitiandu, and I will bear how many risks during this period." They were only worried about damaging Bai Yu's cherished test subject and his precious genome library, and our son's life didn't matter to them at all. ”

"I know your concerns," Xiao Yifan smiled slightly, "but you have to admit that this is a very reasonable way to deal with it, and you should know the character of that kid better than me, he is even more rational than me, do you really want to restrain him in the name of 'love'?"

Meng Xueying was stunned, as if she had lost her last support, and was hugged by Xiao Yifan in her arms the moment she fell. In Xiao Yifan's impression, this seems to be the first time she is not so strong, and this is completely a change in her identity as a "mother".

"Yifan, I always just wanted him to be an ordinary child, not to have to go through that kind of miserable pain like us, you know? Meng Xueying couldn't cry.

"I know, I know. "She has always been strong, even to the point of stubbornness, and at this time she uses all her strength to cry. Xiao Yifan gently patted her body, as if coaxing a sad little girl, but his straight back was trembling slightly, and he vaguely remembered his promise: "After this dream ends, I will crush all the pain in the future." ”

"When you and Cen took him to Southern Guatemala, I was alone in this house. Meng Xueying's voice was very soft, there was no blame, and there was no anger, but Xiao Yifan's heart tingled, she didn't say that it was at home, but in "this house".

He failed to deliver on the "future" he had promised. The world is changing, these reasons are reasonable, but they will disappoint those who believe in him. As for guilt and self-blame, he is not even qualified to dwell on these pains.

Gritting his teeth and hardening his heart, Xiao Yifan said lightly: "Xue Ying, sign it." ”

Seeing that the hand she wanted to hold the pen was a little timid and hesitant, Xiao Yifan personally put the pen in her hand: "You know that I have always hated my father, if one day I become like him, maybe I can't forgive myself." But now I don't believe that I can do better than he did, and if you don't believe it, I won't sign it. ”

"......" Listening to Xiao Yifan's words, Meng Xueying's hands kept trembling, and it took a long time before she wrote her name on the agreement, and the handwriting was crooked, which was completely inconsistent with her usual Junxiu style.

As if she had mustered up her last strength, Meng Xueying suddenly stood up and stared at Xiao Yifan, her voice calm: "Xiao Yifan, I will only forgive you once for such a reason!"

After that, Meng Xueying rushed to the bedroom in two steps, and a huge slamming sound came, and Xiao Yifan was locked outside the bedroom.

Awkward silence......

Xiao Yifan smiled bitterly, and looked at Xiao Baiyu's room, but that room was cleaned by Meng Xueying every day, and it was spotless, if she went in and slept messily, I was afraid that she would die even worse tomorrow, as for the guest room, there was only one wooden bed, and the mattress and quilts were all in her bedroom. After thinking about it for a long time, the sofa is still reliable......

Day 2......

"Ahem, I know it's really unfair to you to let you solve this kind of thing, but I'm afraid no one can persuade that girl except you. Cen Yu looked at Xiao Yifan, who was smiling, and patted him on the shoulder with some guilt.

"If you don't bring family matters to work, you can't handle them as family matters. But what I couldn't believe was that I had persuaded Xue Ying. ”

"It's hard for you......"

"Don't look at her angry at me, in fact, part of the reason she can agree to sign is because she understands my situation, she is not stupid, she knows that you are not the only one who is not pleasing to me at both ends of the middle, but fortunately I can shut up those guys now. Xiao Yifan smiled, "Being able to have you by my side has reduced a lot of pressure." ”

"When this is over, I'll give you both three months off!"

"Hehe, is it appropriate? Time is of the essence. ”

"It's because of the urgency of time that we don't know what's going to happen in the future, and we probably won't have that opportunity again. ”

"Let's talk about this matter later......" Xiao Yifan smiled and shook his head, "Don't tell Xue Ying first, otherwise she will be too busy to deal with it if she plays tricks again." If you do have time for a vacation, you should surprise her. ”

"I understand. ”

"By the way, shouldn't she be transferred to the adjudication team or committee at the beginning of the month, why is she still working in the secretariat?"

"She refuses to be transferred," Cen Yu spread his hands helplessly, "I'm angry, with her temperament, it's rare to just protest silently!"

"That's ......," Xiao Yifan smiled helplessly.

"In that case, let's start the preparations for this plan quickly, and you still need the cooperation of your childhood sweetheart. Cen Yuruo glanced at Xiao Yifan meaningfully.

"Don't turn out those things about old sesame seeds and rotten grains, you didn't mess up the water back then. Xiao Yifan ignored Cen Shu's ridicule.

"Okay, okay, what are you talking about?" Cen Yu echoed and smiled indifferently, "There is another question, your son needs a guardian in this plan, it can't be you and Xue Ying, this person depends on your opinion first." ”

"I've already thought about this candidate, let Luan Shou go, he needs a relatively peaceful time. ”

"That little guy? For now, he's the most suitable, and I'm afraid that other guys who can be as reassuring as him won't be able to pull away for the time being. ”

"If it's okay, I'll go back first. ”

"Go back and coax your wife?"

"Heh, you don't care about this, family affairs are not brought to work, and family affairs are not talked about at work. Xiao Yifan smiled and wanted to leave.

"One more thing for you?"

"What's the matter?" Xiao Yifan suddenly felt that Cen Death's smile was a little weird, and there was a hint of bad premonition in his heart.

"I want to go back to the Shakya Academy, so you can choose one of the two major positions of 'Heavenly Death' and 'Chairman of the Committee', of course, if you want to, I don't mind!"

Xiao Yifan's face darkened, and he glared at Cen Yu coldly: "I said why did you suddenly promise to let me go on vacation, it turned out that you wanted to be the shopkeeper for two years first." Anyway, no matter which position you want, in the end, you will have the responsibility of both positions together, right?"

"Haha, those who can work harder. Cen Yu laughed dryly......

In the past few days in London, Xiao Baiyu felt that life was wonderful for the first time, and couldn't help but envy Olivia's princess life.

"Dawn has sent a message that you need your cooperation for a new mission. Early in the morning, Olivia woke up Xiao Baiyu with a solemn face.

"What task?"

"This agreement, can you see it for yourself?" Olivia threw the agreement to Xiao Baiyu.

"Do Dad and Mom know about this?" Without opening the agreement, Xiao Baiyu asked directly.

"The content of this agreement was proposed by your father, Sister Xue Ying originally refused, and then succumbed to your father's 'obscenity'!"

"Then I'll cooperate. Xiao Baiyu shrugged indifferently.

"You don't even read the content?" Olivia raised an eyebrow.

"I wasn't going to ask for my opinion on this matter, what's the point of me reading the content? Anyway, you have to tell me later," Xiao Baiyu spread his hands, "What's more, my dad put it forward, I don't have an opinion, you can do it, I will try my best to cooperate." ”

"Protocol allows you to refrain from calling resonant fragments in your genes for six years......"

"This is uncontrollable!" Xiao Baiyu frowned.

"Listen to me," Olivia continued, "using a special way for you to retract some of your memory ties and appear as a new identity for years to come......"

The so-called retracted memory bond is a figurative statement, the main function of which is to make the biological brain selectively memory nerve closed, so that all external instruments can not detect, and at the same time, the creature is temporarily unable to recall this part of the memory.
