Chapter 332: Sadness and Tears Flowing into a River 5
After getting off the plane, the team led by Luo Cheng sprang into action. They escorted Yi Yao aboard a dark green military vehicle, which immediately started up, the engine emitting a deep and powerful roar as it sped towards the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
Yi Yao, sitting in the car, suddenly felt a surge of uneasiness. She suddenly realized that she had forgotten to say hello to her mother! Thinking of this, she quickly turned to Luo Cheng beside her and said, "Brother Luo, I forgot to tell my mother. Could you please arrange for a teacher from school to come to my house? Tell her that I have important business to attend to in Kyoto and will be home in a few days."
Luo Cheng was slightly taken aback when he heard this, then realized that this bright and clever girl was only 16 years old, still a high school student. He nodded quickly, picked up his phone, and called the military region where Yi Yao was stationed.
"Hello, is this the military district? This is Luo Cheng. There is a situation here that needs your help to deal with. Yi Yao is with us now, and she asked me to find someone to go to her house and explain the situation to her mother. The address is 10, Building 101, Chungu Community. Please send someone over immediately to explain the situation clearly and comfort her mother, saying that Yi Yao is fine and will be back home safely in a few days. In addition, Yi Yao is now an important scientific research talent in the country, and her family must not allow anything to happen. So I would like to trouble you to arrange personnel to protect Yi Yao's mother in the next few days. Thank you all for your hard work!" Luo Cheng breathed a sigh of relief after hanging up the phone.
At this moment, Yi Yao finally showed a relieved smile on her face. Meanwhile, the military vehicle continued to speed along the road, rapidly advancing towards the Chinese Academy of Sciences...
At this moment, Luo Cheng's eyes fell on Yi Yao, who sat quietly, her expression completely calm, unlike that of a child her age. He frowned slightly and asked softly, "So much has happened, why aren't you worried at all?"
Yi Yao's eyes were still as cold as ice. She pursed her lips tightly and was silent for a moment before she responded lightly: "Since I have memories, our family has always lived a very difficult life. There is no father in my family. It's just my mother and I. In order to raise me, my mother had to work as a masseuse to make a living. Her biggest wish in this life is to see me successfully enter university and live a happy life with my own abilities in the future. As for me... My biggest wish is to let my mother enjoy a happy life. When we were in the principal's office before, you asked me why I knew all that knowledge. In fact, I really don't know how to answer you. I just inexplicably "I've somehow managed to do it, and I harbor a ten-thousandth of hope, hoping that the experts and academicians back home will notice me and come knocking on my door." If the country needs the blueprint, then I can legitimately take Mom away from here and live a truly happy life. That way, no one will ever have the opportunity to criticize Mom's past. It's not that I despise Mom's past, but I'm just afraid she'll feel inferior because of it. But as long as her daughter is exceptional and talented, she won't harbor such thoughts anymore, because I will do my utmost to protect her!" At the end of her words, Yi Yao couldn't help but raise her hand and gently wipe away the tears that were streaming down her face. The car slowly stopped with a soft screeching of brakes. The door opened, and Yi Yao gracefully stepped out. Luo Cheng and the other teammates followed her in silence. No one spoke, but their eye contact betrayed a tacit understanding: Yi Yao had absolutely no ill intentions towards the country.
Watching Yi Yao's receding figure, Luo Cheng silently prayed, "I hope this trip goes smoothly!" His previous thorough research on Yi Yao revealed that she and her mother had faced exceptionally difficult circumstances. Furthermore, Yi Yao had long suffered from bullying at school, which had led to her becoming withdrawn. Luo Cheng couldn't help but wonder what kind of experiences had transformed this once innocent child into this state. He couldn't imagine the pain and suffering Yi Yao must have endured to achieve such a dramatic transformation.
After passing through a series of rigorous security checkpoints and undergoing meticulous scans, Yi Yao finally arrived at the Chinese Academy of Sciences' research department with the others. Academicians Li and Wang, who had been waiting there, rushed forward upon seeing Yi Yao, enthusiastically taking her hand and leading her to the center of the crowd. Then, the two academicians carefully unfolded the complex blueprint in their hands, pointing to the parts that puzzled them and asking Yi Yao for help.
Yi Yao leaned forward slightly, carefully examining the blueprint. Her gaze swept over every detail, her brows alternately furrowed and relaxed. Before long, she seemed to grasp the underlying principles. Then, in clear, concise language, she explained the underlying principles and their origins. Her explanation flowed seamlessly, leaving everyone spellbound.
For the next six hours, the atmosphere was incredibly lively. A lively discussion unfolded around the blueprints, with diverse viewpoints colliding and intertwining. Yi Yao remained calm and focused, patiently answering every question and constantly refining her explanations. Finally, at the end of this brainstorming session, everyone had a sudden realization, completely understanding everything on the blueprints.
At this point, everyone was filled with a mixture of excitement and nervousness. All that remained was to wait for the necessary materials to be manufactured, and then conduct actual tests to verify the feasibility of this project. Everyone knew the significance of this undertaking, and no carelessness was tolerated. So, amidst a mixture of anticipation and trepidation, everyone began preparing for the next phase of work...
The little girl lay there listlessly, as if all her strength had been drained. It was only then that everyone realized, as if suddenly awakened from a dream, that since her arrival, she had not had a moment's rest or a bite of food, but had been busy calculating various data and plans with everyone else.
Looking at the petite Yi Yao, she was now slumped over the large table, eyes closed, seemingly about to fall into a deep sleep. Seeing this, Academicians Li and Wang were terrified. They hurried over and said with concern, "Child, let's go! Grandpa Li and Grandpa Wang will take you to eat something first, and then you can get some rest. We'll discuss anything else tomorrow..."
Hearing the two grandfathers' kind words, Yi Yao struggled to open her heavy eyelids and nodded gently. Then, she slowly stood up and, with a slightly unsteady step, followed the others towards the cafeteria.
