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

Chapter 240, Episode 0249: YX Series (Part 1)

Ye Changshan wasn't truly stupid; he had already realized that he had been tricked, but he simply didn't suspect that the person who tricked him was his own father.

She slammed her fist on the table in anger. "It must be my second uncle. He thinks that as long as I'm not good enough, my dad will adopt his stupid son."

Lin Yuexi: "..."

For a moment, I didn't know whether I should comfort him or not.

Honestly, she's not exactly a confidante. How come everyone pours their hearts out to her before they've even exchanged a few words with her, confiding everything in her?

Ye Changshan looked at Lin Yuexi, who was staring at him without saying a word [actually too lazy to pay attention], and thought that he had scared her by his anger just now, and felt a little embarrassed.

But he was so angry that he just wanted to talk to someone. The management here was strict, and his henchmen couldn't come in, so he could only find someone he liked to chat with.

He dragged a chair over and sat down, adopting a posture as if he was about to have a long talk. "Let me tell you, my second uncle's family is no good. Unlike the Huo or Zheng families, whose ancestors were rich, my family was just a bunch of country bumpkins before my dad became successful. We didn't know anything and couldn't do anything. We were so poor that we could pass down a piece of clothing that was patched beyond recognition to the next generation."

“I heard it from my grandma before she passed away. She said that after my dad went to fight in the war, my second uncle kicked her and my grandpa out. Then my eldest uncle took pity on them and took them in, giving them a thatched hut next to the old house to live in.”

“My grandfather died in that thatched hut, and my grandmother lived there until my father finally became successful and went back to bring them home.”

At this point, he got angry and slammed his fist on the desk again. "My dad is such an idiot. When he went to our hometown to pick up my grandma, he clearly knew that my second uncle's family were no good. But after my grandma passed away, my second uncle came to him, and he actually started to care about brotherly affection."

Lin Yuexi recalled that when Old Master Ye's mother passed away, Old Master Ye should already be the Ninth Elder. At this time, it would be a worst thing to ignore the Ye family coming to their door.

So she spoke up: "Your father is one of the elders. His words and actions represent not only himself but also the country. You said that your second uncle's family is a bunch of scoundrels. People who can kick their parents out and abandon them are unlikely to care about brotherly affection. If your father hadn't taken care of your second uncle and his family back then, what if they had talked nonsense or done something detrimental?"

"We can't just give up now, can we? We might as well put it to the present."

"Huh~?" So that's how it is.
Ye Changshan was a little confused, but he also felt that what she said made a lot of sense.

But why is what his little follower said different from what he said?

"That's not what Xiao Li said."

Lin Yuexi blinked and understood. This was really bad luck. Not only was his own father betraying him, but there was also a poison guide planted by someone unknown.

However, she didn't want to interfere in other people's affairs, and only said, "Everyone has their own opinion. The key is how you think about it. Do you have anything else to say?"

Get lost if you have nothing to do, I'm very busy.

Ye Changshan could tell that the other party was clearly trying to get rid of him, and he was immediately hurt. He was the son of his father's success, and from childhood to adulthood, he had never been disliked, let alone been treated like a star. This was the first time he had ever been so obviously disliked by Academician Lin.

However, he was an obedient child. His father said he was a simpleton, the kind who never learns his lesson. Before he came, his father repeatedly reminded him once, twice, three times, four times that he should see Academician Lin with the same respect he would show his father, otherwise he would disown him. Ye Changshan couldn't truly show the same respect as his father, but because of his father's constant reminders, he still had a certain fear of Lin Yuexi, and no matter how unhappy he was, he didn't dare to really lose his temper.

She just pouted and said "It's okay" before leaving, looking aggrieved.

Lin Yuexi shook her head helplessly. She hoped the materials would come out soon, or at least the results of the gun series would be available, so she wouldn't keep running into all sorts of inexplicable things here.

Fortunately, her wish came true soon. One of the results of the documents she had Xu Shan send over a few days ago had come back.

Lin Yuexi hurried to a room in the laboratory building. All the members of Group 1 were there, but the usual commotion that would follow her arrival did not happen today. No one noticed her arrival and they were all gathered around the machine tool.

"It's so beautiful, this gun is so cool. Putting aside whether it's successful or not, just looking at it makes it far superior to those made by foreigners."

Old Huang patted the young man on the back, saying, "What nonsense are you talking about? Do you think we build wooden guns just for show?"

Everyone was startled by Old Huang's sudden outburst of anger, and the laboratory fell silent instantly.

The young man wasn't scared at all. On the contrary, he grinned and leaned closer. "Master is right. A gun is definitely built for practicality. It's a big no-no. I just had a momentary lapse of judgment. But Master, do you admit that this gun is really cool? If I'm worthy of a gun, I want to own it."

"Moreover, this was designed by Academician Lin. It's part of the YX series. The YX-001 sniper rifle is already in mass production. I heard that the first batch of over a hundred has already been sent to the Special Forces. There shouldn't be any problems with the handgun."

Old Huang gave him another slap, but he was clearly no longer angry. However, his gaze toward the young man was not very friendly: "How did I end up taking on such a good-for-nothing disciple?"

"You didn't act as early as Old Chen."

Who doesn't know that you want to compete with Master Chen for a disciple?
He's not angry at all, okay?

On the contrary, he hoped that his master could really snatch it, so that he wouldn't have to call Academician Lin "Uncle-Master" anymore, but "Junior Sister".

That's right, Old Huang is one of Chief Engineer Chen's apprentices, specializing in the research of wooden gun machinery.

Lin Yuexi was unaware of this, and Elder Chen forgot to tell her that YX-001 was, to be precise, the masterpiece of the two of them, the senior and junior siblings. Lin Yuexi did the initial design and material selection, while Elder Huang's team was responsible for the subsequent manufacturing and experimentation.

The first YX-001 sniper rifle was made in this laboratory, which is less than 50 square meters in size.

When it came time to name the sniper rifle, the original idea was to add a letter to Huang Lao's name as well. However, Huang Lao firmly refused. He felt that he had only helped with the manufacturing and did not have the right to have the new sniper rifle labeled with his own name. He believed that it would be disrespectful or even desecrating to the true researcher, Comrade Lin Yuexi, and would also discourage researchers.

What's more, Lin Yuexi is his junior sister. As her third senior brother, he not only gave her some nice things, but also took credit for her without even meeting her. Is he even human?
Leng Zhi told Lin Yuexi everything he said, and she realized that she had a third senior brother nearby, and the two of them had even coincidentally cooperated.

Because of Huang Lao's attitude, Lin Yuexi had a good impression of him even though she didn't see him.

Although she doesn't care too much about fame and fortune, it doesn't mean she doesn't care at all. She won't be angry if you name it after a date or a region, but if you name it after other researchers, she can only say that her research will stop there.
