At a top research institution, Chen Guoxiang nervously monitored the experiment's progress.
He had redesigned the experiment based on Lin Chen's theory and was now using it to verify its validity.
Gradually, the experiment reached 70% completion.
Previously, their experiments had always failed at this stage, each attempt costing four to five million yuan. Thirteen failures had drained tens of millions, and Chen Guoxiang felt the financial strain keenly.
"75%!"
Excitement flashed in Chen Guoxiang's eyes.
This was a height they had never reached before. To achieve such progress in their very first attempt was extraordinary.
And the experiment hadn't failed yet!
80%, 85%...
The experiment continued to advance.
But when the progress reached 90%, a sharp sound rang out, and sparks erupted from the experimental apparatus.
The experiment had failed!
*Crash!*
A buzz of discussion rose around them.
Though the experiment had failed this time, the new approach had yielded unprecedented progress on the first attempt.
This situation strongly suggested that the theory itself was sound. The issues likely lay in the experimental design or execution.
"Gather all the data," Chen Guoxiang said in a deep voice.
He needed a wide range of data to redesign the project.
"Understood, Academician Chen," his assistant replied.
Once in his office, Chen Guoxiang called Director Yang Lin. "Director Yang, I'd like to meet with Academician Lin face-to-face."
Yang Lin paused on the other end. "Academician Lin?"
"Is the 'Lin' I've been communicating with not an academician?" Chen Guoxiang asked. "His depth of knowledge is at the academician level, and his breadth of knowledge far surpasses mine. He absolutely deserves to be an academician."
"I'm not sure if he's an academician, Academician Chen," Yang Lin replied. "Arranging a face-to-face meeting might be difficult. I don't even know his identity."
"Director Yang, please submit an application for me," Chen Guoxiang urged. "My experiment has made significant progress. A direct exchange with him could lead to a breakthrough."
"I can submit the application, but success is uncertain," Yang Lin warned. "The odds are slim."
"In that case, Director Yang, I'll need to share some data with him. Let's see if he can offer any insights."
"This will save the country money!"
"Ask him if it's okay to share the data with him."
Yang Lin agreed.
Half an hour later, Yang Lin called back. "Academician Chen, you can't meet him for now, but sending him the data is no problem."
"Alright then."
A few hours later, Chen Guoxiang sent the data to Lin Chen.
Lin Chen was using an email address provided by the National Security Bureau, one that protected his identity.
*Cough! Cough!*
Lin Chen was helping Lin Xiaoqian with a massage.
Ancient Chinese Medicine knowledge kept flooding his mind. While his mastery as an Ancient Chinese Medicine Grandmaster was already formidable, it wasn't enough. Many illnesses remained beyond his reach.
Half an hour later, Lin Xiaoqian fell asleep.
Even in her sleep, she coughed intermittently.
"Husband, Xixi eats and uses good things, so why is her constitution so weak?" Xu Mengyao asked sadly.
Lin Chen replied, "Eating well doesn't necessarily mean having a strong constitution. Most children today get adequate nutrition. Many children in rural areas with fewer resources actually have better constitutions."
"Constitution is largely determined by innate factors and genetics."
"You must have had significant psychological issues during your pregnancy. It's even questionable whether you ate properly three meals a day. Given that, it's no wonder Xixi's constitution wasn't as robust from the start."
Xu Mengyao said quietly, "I really did often lose my appetite back then." "It seems the main reason was me."
Lin Chen comforted her, "Don't blame yourself unnecessarily. Given your circumstances back then, Xixi's arrival in this world was already her good fortune, and mine too."
"Xixi's constitution will gradually improve with care."
"And even if she gets sick, I'm here, aren't I?"
Xu Mengyao hugged Lin Chen tightly. "Honey, you're so kind. I used to panic whenever Xixi got sick. Now, I'm not as anxious."
Lin Chen gently stroked her hair. "People who eat grains and grains get sick—it's normal. It's actually more dangerous to go too long without getting sick."
"Why don't you sleep in the second bedroom tonight, sweetheart?"
"That way, I can respond quickly if Xixi needs anything."
Xu Mengyao blushed slightly. "Honey, sleeping together occasionally at home is fine. I won't even change into my pajamas."
Lin Chen replied, "Though I'd love to sleep with you, Xixi's cough would keep you up all night. Let's sleep together again once she's recovered."
"You stay with Xixi first. I'll come later to switch with you."
Xu Mengyao nodded gently.
After showering, Lin Chen went to his study.
After updating a fairy tale, Lin Chen opened his email.
"Huh?"
He noticed Academician Chen had sent him a large amount of experimental data.
The data covered a wide range of topics, requiring a deep understanding of twenty or so disciplines.
As a master of aircraft manufacturing, Lin Chen's knowledge was both comprehensive and profound. He could easily understand the experimental data Academician Chen had sent.
"Academician Chen, try doing this—"
After two or three hours, Lin Chen offered his suggestions.
The night passed.
Chen Guoxiang went straight to his office and turned on his computer.
He had sent a lot of data, so he didn't expect Lin Chen to respond so quickly. Still, he felt a flicker of anticipation.
"Hmm?"
Chen Guoxiang was stunned when he saw Lin Chen's reply.
Lin Chen had already provided his suggestions!
He checked the time. Lin Chen had replied after 11 PM the previous night, just a few hours after he sent the email.
"This data covers so many areas. How could he have read it all and given his suggestions so quickly?"
"Academician Lin's capabilities are even greater than I estimated," Chen Guoxiang murmured to himself.
He carefully read through the email from Lin Chen, its contents requiring careful consideration. Some points needed further research or consultation with other experts.
"Xixi, you and Mom stay put at home. No snacks, okay? Daddy will bring back something delicious for lunch."
Lin Chen kissed Lin Xiaoqian.
He had already treated her in the morning.
"Mmm-hmm."
Lin Xiaoqian nodded obediently. "Mom, I can't kiss Daddy because I have a cold. Can you kiss him for me?"
Xu Mengyao hugged Lin Chen.
She kissed his cheek.
Hugs and cheek kisses had become commonplace for her.
Twenty minutes later, Lin Chen arrived at the private kitchen.
Chen Zhian and Chen Xingguo were already there.
"Mr. Chen, Elder Chen," Lin Chen greeted with a smile.
Chen Xingguo said excitedly, "Grandmaster Lin, it's finally a pleasure to meet you! I'm the leader of one of your fan groups."
"Our group now has nearly 100,000 members."
Lin Chen's eyes widened in surprise. "So many?"
Chen Xingguo explained, "We have dozens of groups, each with 2,000 members. Grandmaster Lin, everyone wants you to open a Weibo or Douyin account."
"Elder Chen, let's discuss that later."
Lin Chen said, "If my identity is exposed, I won't be able to live in peace. Plus, I still need to take care of my child."
