Chapter 456: 451, the first lady of China, please keep a low profile (6) Once More
"Have you ever studied abroad?"
Professor Derry wasn’t very fluent in the speech of Shen City, and so he asked very slowly in F Language as Ye Shaohua observed microorganisms through the microscope.
Just moments ago, they had discovered a new type of crystal.
This could absolutely be an epic breakthrough in military applications.
The original host certainly had not studied abroad, having only amassed a considerable collection of books. When the original host was in Nanjing, without parents or relatives nearby, and few friends, her days were spent at home, simply reading.
She came to understand foreign matters through precious foreign books and newspapers.
However, as the original host was self-taught, even with her intelligence, she only had a superficial understanding of these things, of course, Shaohua was different.
"I haven’t been abroad, I just learned some with the teachers in Nanjing," Ye Shaohua said in non-F Language, but Professor Derry’s assistant translated it for him.
Afterward, Professor Derry circled around the experimental product a few times.
He didn’t skimp on the compliments for Ye Shaohua, "Shaohua, you really are my lucky star."
The other F Country exchange students in the lab looked at Ye Shaohua with stunned admiration.
They were all top natural science graduates from renowned F Country universities, having just completed their studies.
Of course, they had heard of Professor Derry’s reputation back in F Country, and even with their statuses, they couldn’t meet Professor Derry face to face in their own country.
This time, it was precisely because Professor Derry came to Shen City that the authorities arranged for these talents to be in the laboratory. One reason was to learn something, and the other was to monitor the lab to prevent F Country citizens from conducting any experiments on Shen City soil.
Both countries’ people were acutely aware of this.
However, after these people arrived at the lab, they realized how insufficient their abilities were. Most of the time, before they could even process what Professor Derry had said, he had already begun the next project.
It wasn’t until Ye Shaohua, holding a letter, suddenly appeared.
In less than a month, Professor Derry had already agreed to let her join the most confidential experiment research.
Ye Shaohua ignored the looks from these people. She slightly squinted, observing the entire lab’s layout, thinking that the perfect lab was only missing a supercomputer.
All over China, crises lurked everywhere. Although the original host’s status wasn’t bad, Shaohua knew that even these warlords would have their day of downfall.
The current Shen City, though called the economic first city of Asia, in reality—
It was all just a façade; this place’s economy was at least fifty years behind other foreign countries.
If she wanted to complete her mission in this world, an identity that was highly regarded, protected, and capable of changing some of the status quo was most suitable.
After much consideration, she knew it was best to return to her major research work.
But in this era, technology was truly primitive; even with ideas, Shaohua couldn’t accomplish them in a short time.
After all, a clever wife can’t cook without rice.
Thinking this, Ye Shaohua looked at the first-generation computer beside the professor, her gaze intensifying slightly.
Noticing her gaze, the two F Country military officers who were always protecting Professor Derry immediately blocked her view, "What are you looking at?"
"Nothing," Ye Shaohua withdrew her gaze, "Professor Derry, I’m going to leave now."
Even as she left, the two F Country military officers watched her with a highly vigilant gaze.
Jiang Zijin, the F Country exchange student and a skilled diplomat, was initially part of the group here to learn from Professor Derry. Observing this, he caught up to Ye Shaohua and whispered, "That’s F Country’s supercomputer, also a top-level secret of F Country. Our country has always wanted to know the composition of this supercomputer, but unfortunately, we have never succeeded in acquiring this top-level secret. Professor Derry seems to trust us a lot, but in reality, he guards these things tighter than anyone."
"I see," Ye Shaohua said thoughtfully, "I understand now."
Seeing Ye Shaohua talking to him,
Jiang Zijin’s eyes briefly lit up, inviting Ye Shaohua to dine at the Shen City Hotel.
However, Ye Shaohua declined.
Jiang Zijin, a renowned diplomatic talent from Shen City, descended from a grandfather who was a famous official’s aide during the former dynasty, and now from a truly established household. This type of well-established family differed from the Ye Family, which had risen halfway through.
Theirs was a family with real heritage.
Watching Ye Shaohua’s departing figure, Jiang Zijin sighed.
When Ye Shaohua returned to the Ye Family’s home, it was already late.
"Shaohua, you’re finally back?" Aunt Hong looked at her, eyes brimming with tears.
"Aunt Hong?" Ye Shaohua washed her hands.
Aunt Hong opened her mouth, but seeing Ye Shaohua’s slightly furrowed brow, she didn’t have the heart to relay what Father Ye had said that would hurt her.
She also hadn’t expected that after returning to the Ye Family, they would disdain Ye Shaohua so much.
Not a single visit from Mother Ye was one thing.
The only time Father Ye came, it was actually to scold Ye Shaohua.
But fortunately, Father Ye also brought some good news, "Second Young Lady, your father has arranged a marriage for you, with someone from the Tang Family. I’ve made some inquiries about the Tang Family, that military officer, if you marry into their family, you will surely enjoy a life of luxury..."
As Aunt Hong spoke of Ye Shaohua’s turn of fortune and calculated the days for her, Ye Shaohua simply smiled faintly without a trace of happiness on her face.
Seeing Ye Shaohua’s indifferent expression, Aunt Hong’s puzzlement deepened. Since when had the Second Young Lady become so impassive?
As Aunt Hong pondered, a maid came to announce the arrival of the Fourth Young Lady.
Today, Ye Junwan wore a short-sleeved western dress that left her slender waist entirely unobscured.
Ye Junwan was probably a representative of Shen City’s famous ladies, her wardrobe seemingly endless, thanks to Father Ye following Tang Feng into many battles and plundering plenty of precious items, otherwise, it wouldn’t be enough to satisfy her extravagance.
She was different from the young ladies of the big merchants, whose families’ business meant they were so rich they only had money left.
"Second sister, look at what great thing I’ve brought," Ye Junwan had the maids move the camera over, smiling at Ye Shaohua, "This is called a camera, specially requested by a friend of mine to bring back from abroad. You probably haven’t seen it before. Here, let me take your picture."
As she spoke, she wanted Ye Shaohua to change into a nicer outfit, but Ye Shaohua disagreed.
She then tried to make Ye Shaohua pose beautifully, but Ye Shaohua just looked at her indifferently.
She really was like a wooden mannequin.
Ye Junwan quickly lost interest in Ye Shaohua, finally understanding how terrifying these remnants of feudalism were in women.
Even if she wanted to help this second sister change, she likely wouldn’t have the power.
"The photograph will come out soon," Ye Junwan said disinterestedly, but noticing Aunt Hong’s unusual happiness today, she couldn’t help but ask, "What’s the occasion today? Why are you so happy, Aunt Hong?"
