After the frail beauty went to the countryside, she went crazy with scientific research.

Chapter 211, Episode 0219: Is this... for sure, not a cannon?

Lin Yuexi used to be highly valued by the authorities because of her talent and because she was a necessity. If she had wanted, it wouldn't have been impossible for her to be raised like a national treasure.

However, it must be admitted that she has always been just an assistant, helping this project or that research, both named and unnamed.

In the world of science, unsung heroes are the norm. Even those who are listed at the top may not be known until after they die.

Although scientists generally don't care about fame and fortune, people are selfish and have a sense of honor. Who wouldn't want to be the boss and have a place in history?
And who doesn't have this thought, this desire?
Chief Engineer Chen had a vague idea in his mind, but he dared not voice it because he knew that anyone who heard it would laugh at him.

He didn't know if Lin Yuexi had any ambition to become famous, but he always had high hopes for her, hoping that she could become a future star of science and technology in the country, and even leading the new generation into a new era of science and technology.

It is hoped that a hundred or even a thousand years from now, people will still remember how difficult it was for researchers of their generation, and that they will learn from their example, avoid repeating the same mistakes and going down the same old path of isolationism.

Their generation of researchers has had it so tough. They had nothing, everything was built from scratch, and they were still subjected to difficulties and suppression by almost every country in the world.

He does not want future generations to repeat their mistakes.

To be memorable, you need a representative figure, and this figure must be virtuous, upright, and dazzling.

After spending a long time with Lin Yuexi, Chief Engineer Chen took a liking to her.

According to Chief Engineer Chen, the first sniper rifle independently developed by Lin Yuexi was the first wooden gun she fired.

Therefore, he was more excited than Lin Yuexi. Hao Suo's task was just a side job; the main point was to take Lin Yuexi to see the sniper rifle she had developed.

It's a pity that he didn't see the last experiment because of the excessive protection given to Lin Yuexi by the higher-ups.

Chief Engineer Chen wanted Lin Yuexi to become a god in the scientific research community. The higher-ups did not want her to be affected by setbacks or external influences, so the first experiment was conducted in secret, for fear that if the experiment failed, Lin Yuexi's mentality would be affected and there would be negative comments from the outside world.

The first experiment was successful after firing more than a dozen guns. The sniper rifle was even secretly used in actual combat without any problems. Only then did the higher-ups feel reassured and semi-publicize the experiment. Those who were involved in gun and weapon research and had some connections already knew about it.

Both of them were accompanied by a group of guards, and they were always notified in advance before traveling. They arrived at the experimental site specially prepared by the Northwest Corps without any problems.

"My dear daughter, Dad misses you so much."

As soon as Lin Yuexi got out of the car, she was embraced by a strong man.

He had thought about it before, but thankfully, his daughter lived too far away, and he knew he wouldn't be able to see her no matter how much he longed. But after she came to the Northwest, even though she was less than an hour's drive away, a whole year had passed and he still hadn't seen her once…

This feels like fucking scrambled eggs.

Despite his advanced age, Leng Zhi has always led by example and never stopped training, resulting in an excellent physique. He's nearly 1.9 meters tall, and when he puts his arm around Lin Yuexi, who is only 1.6 meters tall, her face is buried in his powerful pectoral muscles.

"Ugh~~" Help!
She was out of breath.

Comrade Zheng Weiguo, the staff officer who came with him, was originally just curious about Lin Yuexi because his partner often talked about her. He came to see if she was really as beautiful as Lao Leng said, even more beautiful than a celestial being.

Seeing this, he quickly went up and pulled Leng Zhi's hand away. "I'm telling you, Lao Leng, I understand you miss your daughter, but you don't have to miss her to the point of death. Can't you see she can't breathe?"

What a rough old man! He has no sense of proportion. He thinks this delicate young girl is one of those tough guys in the army?

He glanced at it, seemingly unintentionally.

Good heavens, Lao Leng wasn't exaggerating this time. Look at these eyebrows, these eyes, this nose, this mouth—everything is perfect; any more or less would be too much or too little. You could sculpt this face just by copying it.

Wait a minute! Zheng Weiguo looked at Leng Zhi suspiciously. It wasn't that Leng Zhi was ugly; Leng Zhi's appearance was quite striking. But no matter how he looked at the eyes, nose, mouth, or ears, apart from both having black hair and black eyes, he couldn't find any similarities between the two.
hiss~
It's not what he thinks, is it?
Sister-in-law Zhang doesn't seem like that kind of person.

Leng Zhi, unaware that Zheng Weiguo had gone off on a wild and unpredictable tangent, looked at her daughter with concern and apologized profusely.

"Daughter, Dad didn't mean it. Dad was just too excited. Are you alright? Does your nose hurt?"

"Let Dad see, look how delicate my daughter's nose is, I hope I don't flatten it."

Lin Yuexi looked at her father helplessly, "Dad, why did you come to join in the fun?"

"How could I not come and see the wonderful stuff my daughter made?" Leng Zhi pretended to be angry.

What can Lin Yuexi do?
You can only spoil your own biological father who isn't related to you by blood.

She stepped forward and took his arm, revealing a rare girlish charm, "That's right, Dad, this time your daughter will definitely make you proud. As long as the sniper is made exactly according to the information I gave you, I guarantee it will work."

"Dad isn't a monkey, why does he have such a long face? Don't overwork yourself if you're not feeling well, don't make Dad worry."

That's what they say, but Leng Zhi's mouth is like an AK, impossible to shut up no matter what.

Zheng Weiguo, standing behind him, glared disdainfully at his back, grinned like a wolf in sheep's clothing trying to kidnap someone, and quickly walked a few steps closer to Lin Yuexi.

“Girl, your dad and I are partners. You can call me Uncle Zheng or Old Zheng.”

Leng Zhi glared at him irritably. "Have you no shame? What do you mean, Uncle Zheng? Old Zheng? Did you give me a red envelope when we met?"
Zheng Weiguo blinked rapidly: "Here, I promise. I didn't bring any, I'll get some when I get back."

Lin Yuexi didn't notice their flirtatious exchange and obediently greeted, "Hello, Uncle Zheng."

"Hey, Xi'er, can Uncle Zheng talk to you about something?"

Lin Yuexi was stunned. She was her father's partner, so he could only be her advisor. What could the chief advisor possibly discuss with her? They were from completely different worlds.

Leng Zhi glared at him warningly, "Don't do anything reckless and make things difficult for my daughter. I'll make you suffer for the rest of your life."

Zheng Weiguo: "..."

Is it really necessary? I'm doing this for our corps, aren't I?
Who is Lao Zheng? Is he the kind of person who can be easily threatened?

joke.

Haha, I really am.

But for the sake of those kids in the corps, even if it meant a hard life for the rest of his days, he was willing to risk everything to save his life.

"Xi girl, once your sniper rifles are mass-produced, could you give them to the Northwest Corps first?"

Lin Yuexi's eyes flickered slightly. Instead of answering his question, she asked in return, "Uncle Zheng, we haven't even started the experiment yet."

"What's there to experiment with? We already tried it last time, and we've been using that one ever since. It works great and hasn't had any problems."

Seemingly realizing he had let something slip, Zheng Weiguo looked a little embarrassed and gave Lin Yuexi a thumbs up, "Girl, you're amazing! You've really made us proud. That thing you brought out works even better than the one we bought from E."
