Chapter 266: Chapter 266: Later Research

This is a result of Jiang Cheng’s research? At this thought, Xia Xiaowei’s heart couldn’t help but be stirred.

Originally, Xia Xiaowei was very confident in her own appearance, even compared to Guan Xiaofei and Su Qianqian, she felt she might be slightly more beautiful, but now, standing in front of them, she felt a sense of inadequacy.

This feeling was truly uncomfortable.

Xia Xiaowei’s mood became somewhat complicated for a while. After some time, Xia Xiaowei arrived at the restaurant, where the four of them had a meal together.

During the meal, Xia Xiaowei kept secretly observing Guan Xiaofei and Su Qianqian, without saying a word.

It was apparent that Guan Xiaofei and Su Qianqian enjoyed being admired in such a manner.

Originally, the two of them saw Xia Xiaowei as a competitor, but now, they completely lacked such feelings—they understood completely that the future was long, and as long as they stayed by Jiang Cheng’s side, they could live long enough, and the time spent together would only increase.

As for whether Xia Xiaowei would become Jiang Cheng’s woman, they didn’t care.

After dinner, Jiang Cheng went straight to the lab to continue his research. The two girls, not slacking off because of genetic evolution, continued to work hard as well.

The two girls were pleasantly surprised to find that their cognitive speed seemed to have increased significantly; both their comprehension and reaction abilities improved, thanks to the effect of the Genetic Evolution Potion! Originally considered smart, the sisters now learned even faster.

The research Jiang Cheng was working on couldn’t be completed in a short time. If it were in a past life, he could have concocted an Intermediate Gene Evolution Potion in an instant! No need for research at all! But now, it’s completely different.

The resources available on Earth are extremely limited. To concoct something like a Genetic Evolution Potion, he must do his own research.

Even if someone knew the formula of the Genetic Evolution Potion, even if that person were a famous geneticist, they might not be able to concoct the potion in their lifetime! For many materials in the Genetic Purification Potion, simply don’t exist on Earth, and how can you substitute anything?

One experiment after another? It might take thousands of years to experiment it all? But only Jiang Cheng can quickly research, analyze, and create the Basic Gene Evolution Potion.

Only Jiang Cheng can further research and develop the Intermediate Gene Evolution Potion.

And because of the limitations of this era, only the Intermediate Gene Evolution Potion can be researched.

Going further, some things simply cannot be substituted or found anywhere else.

Jiang Cheng researched until midnight before stopping. The Intermediate Gene Evolution Potion was about halfway completed.

Although half of the Intermediate Gene Evolution Potion was completed, the remaining half might take even more time to finish, as the difficulty only increases.

The same goes for the Genetic Evolution Potion.

Even though Jiang Cheng didn’t feel tired, after researching to this point, he decided to rest for a while.

Jiang Cheng left the lab and went directly to his bedroom, he bumped into Xia Xiaowei on the way.

”Still not sleeping so late?” Jiang Cheng looked at Xia Xiaowei with surprise, and asked.

”Ah, Master Jiang Cheng.” Xia Xiaowei looked at Jiang Cheng with a bit of surprise, not expecting to run into him in the middle of the night: ”Are you finished?”

”Finished.” Jiang Cheng nodded and said, ”But answering a question with a question like that is quite rude, you know.

”Sorry.” Xia Xiaowei froze for a moment, instantly realizing her rudeness, she quickly apologized: ”I got a bit confused from being busy... worked until now.”

”It’s alright, were you busy with work until now?” Jiang Cheng asked with some surprise.

”Yes.” Xia Xiaowei blushed slightly, saying, ”So much work? Do you need to find someone to help you?” Jiang Cheng was indeed surprised, he hadn’t thought that his job as a secretary and assistant would be so busy, going until midnight?

”No, it’s not that there’s too much work.” Xia Xiaowei said, a little embarrassed: ”It’s like this... recently, I’ve been following the events after your speech at the Hasslo Medical Lecture, and the time just slipped away, but the work still had to be done, and it’s late, staying at the office was pointless, so I brought the work home to focus better, and accidentally worked until now.”

Xia Xiaowei explained honestly...

After speaking, she carefully watched Jiang Cheng, afraid he would be angry.

Fortunately, Jiang Cheng wasn’t angry, he just smiled and said: ”You were actually following the events post my Hasslo Medical Lecture? The turmoil caused by the paper I presented there has been lasting until now?”

Although Jiang Cheng did indeed present a groundbreaking speech topic at the Hasslo Medical Lecture, he was still somewhat surprised that the heat lasted until now. During this period, he hadn’t paid intentional attention—he thought the hype had died down. After all, people’s pursuit of hype is ultimately short-lived, and each period has its wave; once the wave passes, no one remembers these things anymore.

Additionally, Jiang Cheng cleverly noticed that Xia Xiaowei had already regarded this place as her home. Such a statement was indeed somewhat ambiguous and intriguing.

”Yes.” Seeing Jiang Cheng not angry about her work slack, Xia Xiaowei breathed a sigh of relief and quickly said: ”There are still many people arguing online now. Most of them hope you come forward and give them an explanation—but during this time, you’ve been doing experimental research without saying a word, which has frustrated many people, making them think you played a bad joke. But still, many believe you must have something you haven’t revealed, waiting until now.”

”Is that so?” Jiang Cheng chuckled and said: ”I’m surprised the hype can last till now, but I have no plans to publish any genetic achievements in the near future, as the system isn’t complete enough yet...”

Beside him, Xia Xiaowei found it speechless; when others achieve something, even a small hint of it, they can’t wait to showcase it for various accolades and attention, yet Jiang Cheng plans to perfect the system before publicizing it.
