The Glamorous Comeback of the Ousted Heiress-Chapter 874 - 343 Legacy

You Xinzheng had only seen Bai Lian a few times.

However, when he had just returned to Jiangjing, Ma Tongfeng had specifically shown him Bai Lian’s performance in Tongfeng’s class.

The topology exam papers in Tongfeng class were set by Ma Tongfeng himself, and Bai Lian always scored full marks. Mathematics and physics require talent, and Bai Lian was the second highest-talented person You Xinzheng had ever seen.

What was most rare was that the young girl could calm down and quietly focus on research.

She was seriously studying the things left to her by Academician Ma, making the always critical Academician Ma unable to find a single fault with her.

When Jiang Fulai wasn’t throwing money around, Academician Ma didn’t care to deal with him either.

But Bai Lian was an exception.

At that moment, hearing Bai Lian’s words "she will resist," You Xinzheng suddenly remembered more than a decade ago when the snowy mountains had buried a group of physicists.

Academician Ma had brought him and Huang Yushuo, who had just completed his doctoral degree, through a similar experience.

"Good, good," You Xinzheng let out a breath, leaning back slightly, "the key project led by the teacher, this was his life’s work. Twenty years ago, PM Laboratory refused our country’s people from entering, monopolizing our source of quantum technology. The teacher began studying quantum mechanics independently, determined to no longer depend on others."

"But now Ma Jiren wants to submit a collaboration agreement for international cooperation, and your junior mentioned you were also involved. So if the teacher... if he is no longer here, I would like you to continue the work."

You Xinzheng did not know specifically what Academician Ma was researching.

Due to the confidentiality agreement, You Xinzheng could only guess from the few words from Ma Jiren.

Now that Academician Ma was gone, his research was disrupted, and although others didn’t know what he was researching, that didn’t stop them from wanting to get Academician Ma’s lifetime’s worth of data and efforts.

Hearing that one sentence from Academician Ma "if the teacher is no longer here."

Bai Lian’s eyes slightly closed, her eyelashes trembled, and she gripped the white porcelain cup tight.

Academician Ma had never formally said so, but Bai Lian had always regarded him as her teacher.

In her two lifetimes, she had only three teachers: Liang Zewen, Qin Jiu, and this Ma Tongfeng, whose mentorship tea she hadn’t even had the chance to drink.

Bai Lian opened her eyes, speaking softly, "I understand."

Academician Ma was researching the 925 quantum chip.

A quantum chip that could process thousands of Gaussian Bose samples at once.

You Xinzheng saw Bai Lian out.

Watching the figure of Bai Lian getting into the car, he slowly exhaled, then sent a message to Huang Yushuo—

[The junior sister is calmer than I thought. Perhaps I should have told her earlier.]

Picking up Bai Lian was Ming Dongheng, who had slept nearly a whole day.

With Mao Kun on Jiang Fulai’s side, Ming Dongheng felt much more relieved. Although he still didn’t know who Mao Kun was, at Xingyi Martial Arts School, he had sparred with Mao Kun and knew Mao Kun’s strength.

"The day the base initiated its self-destruct protocol, I could only manage to bring one person out when I entered. I wish I had known sooner," Ming Dongheng said, looking at the rearview mirror, unable to see the restrained expression on Bai Lian’s face, his tone filled with regret.

Ming Dongheng reported to Bai Lian one by one, "Now, Dean Gao and others are inviting someone from the Luo Family."

"The Luo Family?" Bai Lian raised her eyes.

"Initially, it seems it was also someone from the Luo Family who acted. They have a hereditary acupuncture technique," explained Ming Dongheng, "Jiang Xijue has invited someone, and in the next few days, they should be able to see the young master."

Bai Lian realized this was the traditional medicine leader in Asia that had later collaborated with R Country to monopolize important markets, which had been broken by other competitors.

It had a history of several hundred years.

She took out her phone and sent a message to Lance—

[What’s the situation?]

Lance replied very quickly—

[A bit difficult.]

Bai Jian: [Do you know our country has a very mystical acupuncture?]

Lance: [I’ll sort out the exit permit by tomorrow!]

She lowered the car window, "When people from the Luo Family arrive, notify me."

**

At the theater.

Gao Shu had just finished a meeting, holding a coffee that Secretary Xue had prepared for her.

Next to her, Secretary Xue handed her the phone, "It’s General Jiang’s call."

"Xijue," Gao Shu downed her coffee in one gulp, showing no signs of fatigue on her face. She walked to the inner room, "What did the people from the Luo Family say?"

She knew Jiang Xijue had met with someone from the Luo Family the previous night.

"I met Luo Cheng, the next heir of the Luo Family," the secretary took the suit from Jiang Xijue’s hands as he sat on the sofa, reaching out to light the Sedative Incense, "They want Xian Kang, but they’re relenting, willing to accept a batch of medications as well."

The Sedative Incense was from the butler.

Jiang Xijue and his people, who usually didn’t sleep well or were overly stressed, would also light it for themselves.
