Chapter 193 - The Secrets Hidden in Memory (24) (1/2)

As a matter of fact, Jin Xiangdong needed no such comforting words. Ever since the day he woke up from his surgery, he was informed that he would be different. Mentally, he had accepted this definition early. Prior to the surgery, he longed to stay alive, more than anyone else because he had too many unfulfilled dreams at such a young age.

Jin Xiangdong smiled at Jin Xianglan. “Sorry, I didn’t mean to complain.”

Jin Xianglan shook her head. “You have done very well!”

The two smiled at each other. Then, Jin Xiangdong got up from the bed and Jin Xianglan handed him his shirt.

Jin Xiangdong put it on quickly. As he buttoned his cuff, he asked, “How far along are you with the new project you talked about last time?”

Jin Xianglan batted her eyelashes when she heard the question. “Stage four.” She answered with a not so pleasant tone.

“Is it going well?” Jin Xiangdong went on.

Jin Xianglan shook her head. He could not tell what she was thinking from her expression.

Jin Xiangdong took a closer look at Jin Xianglan’s expression. “The only thing I can help with is providing funding.”

Jin Xianglan could not help but burst into laughter. “Are you flaunting your wealth? Remaining low profile is a family tradition!”

Jin Xiangdong laughed as well. Given Jin Xianglan’s own reputation, funding was not what was lacking in her research project. The current difficulty must lie within the experiment.

“What is going on? Can you tell me?” Jin Xiangdong asked.

Jin Xianglan gazed at him and heaved a sigh. “Rejection has appeared in the human testing results.”

Jin Xiangdong understood what she was saying at once. “Maybe, the data from my check-up will be conducive to the progress of your project.” He added.

Jin Xianglan smiled at this. She patted his shoulders, “I sure hope so.”

Afterwards, the two of them left the lab. Jin Xianglan was heading out for a business trip so Jin Xiangdong drove her to the airport.

The two of them talked a lot. Laughter filled the car.

Jin Xiangdong suddenly changed the subject. “Sister, what do you think of Jia’er?”

Jin Xianglan turned over to look at him. “My view is not important. What matters is that you really like her!”

“Am I to understand that as you still having some opposing views?” Jin Xiangdong curled up his lips.

Jin Xianglan laughed. “She is excellent and beautiful. It’s just…” At this, Jin Xianglan took a pause.

“Just what?” Jin Xiangdong turned to her.

Jin Xianglan shook her head, “Nothing!”

“Sister, hesitation is not like you.” Jin Xiangdong said with a smile.

All of a sudden, Jin Xianglan put on a stern expression, “You asked me about recovering memory from genetic means previously. Does it have anything to do with her?”

Jin Xiangdong dodged her look. He, who had always been honest with his sister, denied it. “No.”

“Actually, I can accept it, whether yes or no.” Jin Xianglan smiled.

Jin Xiangdong’s mouth twitched. His answer was mixed with truth and falsehood. “Since I am special, the woman I like must be unusual as well!”

The smile froze on Jin Xianglan’s lips but it came back the next second. “Of course, the woman that my brother falls for won’t be normal.”

Jin Xiangdong laughed. “What if she is special, like me?”

“How special?” She followed with a question.
