Liu Xiaoguang obviously didn't want to face Cheng Xuedong's sore spots, and couldn't help but be gloomy: "Every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, so it's better not to mention it." ”

Cheng Xuedong was very familiar with the situation in Liu Xiaoguang's family, and couldn't help but continue to be concerned: "Your family's Suyun is a well-read lady, not only beautiful, but also admires scientists. You have to cherish people, and don't let your backyard catch fire. ”

Liu Xiaoguang smiled bitterly and waved his hand: "Forget it, let's not mention this." You just arrived today, so I'd better arrange for you to rest early. ”

Cheng Xuedong nodded: "Okay, it just so happens that I'm also tired." ”

When Liu Xiaoguang brought Cheng Xuedong into the dormitory to rest, Cheng Xuedong asked while making the bed: "Since Mr. Nan has never gone home, which dormitory will he live in?" ”

Liu Xiaoguang shook his head: "There is no luggage for Professor Nan in the entire dormitory. He probably doesn't live here. ”

Cheng Xuedong couldn't help but stop, and looked up at Liu Xiaoguang in surprise: "Where can Mr. Nan live if he doesn't live here?" ”

Liu Xiaoguang shrugged his shoulders: "You ask me?" Who goes, I ask? ”

Cheng Xuedong was curious: "You work next to Teacher Nan every day, how can you not know where he lives?" ”

"Alas, even if you tell me, I really don't know where Professor Nan lives at night, because every time I leave the unit, Professor Nan is still working, even if he works overtime."

Cheng Xuedong was stunned, and there were ripples in his heart.

Liu Xiaoguang looked relieved: "Okay, let's not talk more, I wish you a good night's sleep." ”

Cheng Xuedong hurriedly returned his thoughts to reality: "Lao Liu, thank you!" ”

Liu Xiaoguang, who had already stepped out of the door with one foot, turned his head: "Lao Cheng, what do you thank me?" ”

"Thank you for everything you arranged for me today."

"You." Liu Xiaoguang was dissatisfied with Cheng Xuedong's politeness to him, pointed at him with his finger, and then closed the door and left.

Cheng Xuedong was too tired today, he took an express train from Shangjiang thousands of miles away in the early morning to Northern Qi, and arrived at Nanjia in the afternoon to attend the birthday banquet, and he didn't get rest until now, so he didn't wash before going to bed, and took off a few coats directly and got into the freshly laid quilt.

However, he didn't feel sleepy for the time being, his eyes were wide open, staring straight at the ceiling, and he thought of his mentor Nan Binghuai...

Teacher Nan should be done with the party now, right? Did he rest, and where?

Cheng Xuedong had no clue and wanted to use his mobile phone to call Nan Binghuai, but he was afraid that it would disturb him so late, so he endured it. He knows this mentor very well, and even what he is doing at the moment may disturb the other party.

His thoughts flashed, and he dialed a number. However, this number belongs to Wang Shuzhen. To be honest, although Wang Shuzhen covered himself up very well when he left, it still made him faintly uneasy in his heart, and he always felt that his wife had changed too quickly, which made him a little confused.

Doodoo...

It's been connected for a long time, and no one has answered on the other end.

Cheng Xuedong suddenly became nervous, because he knew in his heart that although his daughter had a photo with him this morning, after noon, she still had to return to school, and it was estimated that his wife would be home alone tonight. Will there be any surprise that she doesn't answer the phone for a long time?

He waited eagerly, and at the same time nervously.

"Hello?"

Cheng Xuedong's eyes widened again, although the call was answered, the delicate female voice in the microphone was not from his wife.

"Who are you?" He asked nervously.

The woman made a strange voice: "Teacher Cheng, can't you even hear my voice?" ”

"Liu Yan..." Cheng Xuedong suddenly thought of Liu Yan, "Are you in my home?" ”

"You really didn't take me to heart, because I personally sent you to the station this morning."

Cheng Xuedong hurriedly defended: "I didn't know that you would be able to move to my house today, so I didn't expect you to answer the phone." ”

Liu Yan also explained: "I sent you off, and I sent Xiaowei away in the afternoon, and I felt that Teacher Wang was very lonely, so I never went back to the dormitory of the unit." ”

"Oh, why didn't Shuzhen answer the phone?"

"She slept soundly, and your call didn't wake her up, but it did wake me up."

"I'm sorry, I'm just because I can't worry about her..."

"It's okay, I understand. How are you doing there? ”

"Well, I got here pretty well, and I just got off the train for a family birthday party."

"Oh, is it true?"

"Of course it's true. I've been drinking a lot. ”

"Who the hell is it that makes you want to attend it as soon as you get off the train?"

"She is my wife. I had just heard the news from Liu Gong, who picked up the station, and I went with him. ”

"Which Liu Gong?"

Cheng Xuedong felt that she was a little too curious, so he had to further explain: "He is an excellent peer of mine, and he has been working beside Teacher Nan. ”

Liu Yan couldn't help but sigh: "I almost forgot that the colleagues around you are all professor-level heavyweights. ”

"Not necessarily. However, the teams that were able to participate in this project were scientists with extraordinary achievements. ”

Liu Yan showed an envious tone: "It would be great if I could join that team, I can learn a lot from those experts." ”

Cheng Xuedong's heart moved: "It would be better if you could come to work with Professor Nan, not only to learn his profound knowledge, but also to learn his meticulous attitude in doing things." ”

"Oh, what kind of scientist is Professor Nan?"

"This... I'm afraid a sentence or two is not clear. ”

"Ha, since you can't say one or two sentences clearly, then say three or four sentences, if you can't say three or four sentences clearly, just say five or six sentences, or even countless sentences."

Cheng Xuedong smiled helplessly: "Girl, are you really so curious?" ”

"Yes, when I think of that dignified Professor Nan as the chief scientist of China's Tianyan project, I admire him very much, and naturally I want to learn more about his life and work."

Cheng Xuedong pondered: "But he is not a perfect person, he has to sacrifice his family while working diligently, such as today..."

As soon as Liu Yan heard that he wanted to say something, he chased after him even more: "Isn't it his wife's birthday today?" What the hell is going on? ”

Cheng Xuedong usually likes the students that his wife once led, and now he takes care of his wife instead, so he has to impatiently satisfy her curiosity, so he will tell the banquet this afternoon in detail.

Liu Yan was very moved when she heard this: "Professor Nan is really willing to give up everything for his career." I'm really looking up to him more and more. ”

"Yes, he will always be our role model. However, his wife is also a great woman, and she has also made selfless dedication to support his career. ”

Liu Yan's tone was suddenly very low: "Teacher Cheng... When you think of Professor Nan's wife, can you think of Mr. Wang? She's probably not easier than anyone else..."

Cheng Xuedong's heart was shocked, and he couldn't help but lose his voice: "How is Shuzhen's current condition?" ”

Liu Yan was silent for a moment, and hurriedly covered up: "She is fine, and she sleeps soundly." But as a woman, you always want your husband to be by her side all the time. ”

Cheng Xuedong couldn't help sighing: "I owe her too much." ”

"Okay, I might disturb your rest, so I won't say more. You should always take care of your body. ”

As soon as Cheng Xuedong heard that she was finally going to put an end to this conversation, he also made a heartfelt voice: "Xiaoyan, Shuzhen will entrust it to you." ”

When Liu Yan ended the call, she couldn't help but look at Wang Shuzhen.

Wang Shuzhen didn't actually sleep, but because her tone was too weak, she didn't dare to answer her husband's phone, but she wanted to hear her husband's voice, so Liu Yan, who was lying next to her, did it for her.

Liu Yan has been pestering Cheng Xuedong to talk just now, in fact, it is to satisfy Wang Shuzhen, because Wang Shuzhen can only shine with a glimmer of brilliance in her gloomy eyes when she hears her husband's voice, as if she is enjoying an unparalleled audio-visual feast.

At this moment, her husband's voice stopped abruptly, and Wang Shuzhen couldn't help but shed sad tears.

Liu Yan hurriedly took a tissue from the bedside table on her side and wiped her tears with her own hands.

"Teacher Wang, your eyesight is getting worse and worse, you shouldn't shed tears anymore, otherwise you are really in danger of going blind."

Wang Shuzhen nodded sadly: "I know... Actually, how is my eyesight... It doesn't matter anymore... After all, I can't see the day when the eye of our motherland is completed... Even if you see Xuedong again, you may not be able to do it..."

"Mr. Wang... Please don't say that... All you have to do is take care of your body... I'm sure I'll see the day he comes home..."

"Xiao Yan... You don't have to comfort me... Only I know about my own illness... But... I want to take advantage of the fact that I'm not gone... There's a little more to do..."

Liu Yan hurriedly said: "Just tell me what you want to do, and I will help you achieve your wish." ”

Wang Shuzhen took a deep breath: "First of all, my daughter... Hopefully, I'll make it to the moment she leaves, but there's still almost half a year to go, so I have to try to live until that time. ”

Liu Yan nodded again and again: "Teacher Wang is the most persevering, and he will definitely be able to persevere." ”

"I have one more wish... I just want to introduce you to Mr. Nan's side work..."

Liu Yan's eyes widened in shock: "How is this possible?" My qualifications are so shallow, even if I pour tea and water for Professor Nan, I am not worthy of it. ”

"You're a junior ... But it's the stage of learning and training... If you work next to Mr. Nan... It will be of great help to you... It's also considered to fulfill a wish for me... Because if I hadn't been sick... I'm sure I'll be able to join that great project..."

Liu Yan's beautiful big eyes revealed yearning, but her mouth said: "I want to take care of you now, I don't want to go anywhere." ”

Wang Shuzhen smiled bitterly: "You are still young... You can't take care of me for the rest of my life... Let's come to a long time... In fact, if you work next to Professor Nan... You can also help me take care of Xuedong by the way..."

Liu Yan listened to Wang Shuzhen's intermittent and meaningful words, and suddenly her cheeks were a little feverish, and she stopped talking.

Besides, after Cheng Xuedong finished talking on the phone, he squinted for a while, but soon sobered up, because he hadn't seen the person he wanted to see the most.

When he lay on the bed and tossed and turned for a while, he could no longer bear it anymore and immediately put on his clothes and got out of bed.

Since he only dragged off his coat, it was not a problem to get dressed, and when he was dressed, he pushed the door and left the dormitory.

The dormitory was in the northern part of the building, and he wandered through the corridor for a while, then walked to the research room in front of him—
