take care of

This was the first time that Gu Qing saw Chen Qi.Under the effect of the medicine, he was awake for a while, but now he passed out again, lying quietly on the operating table on the second floor of the basement with his hands clasped together.He was almost a full year younger than Leon, and his body was not as well-developed as that of a white child. He was extremely thin, and except for a little flesh on his cheeks, the bones in other places had to protrude from under the skin.

Lu Qing had an inexplicable sense of familiarity with him, as if seeing himself many years ago.At that time, because of the injection, he was overthinking and couldn't eat anything, so he was so thin.But Willis was always taking care of him by his side, and Juan was also paying attention to him. Slowly, Gu Qing got used to it, but because of his stubbornness and negligence, there was no one around him who could help him.

Lu Qing flipped through his body data report, fortunately, except for being thin, he was considered healthy or even excellent in other aspects, at least his growth was not delayed because of his negligence.

Lu Qing carefully looked at the constantly updated brain activity data. Chen Qi's data continued to drop from the high frequency, and then fluctuated up and down in the middle frequency, which was similar to his current level.Gu Qing reckons that after a period of stability, he will be stable in the situation where Juan retired, and he will still be a smart person, but it is impossible to continue his Gaia career.

"He is in the injection period this week. After he woke up last night, he asked me to leave first, saying that he would go to the toilet and then leave by himself. I didn't think it was strange at the time. When I went to work this morning, I suddenly felt that something was wrong and I was in a hurry. When he came, he had already taken four injections left by Willis and emptied them all together."

"I was in a hurry and scolded him once," Tao Henghuan took a long breath, "I didn't understand him, but instead blamed him for not following my request."

"Actually, something has been wrong with him since last year. In order to return home earlier, he also took two injections together. At that time, he had a severe fever, but he woke up too. I didn't inform you. He has been in the hospital since then. Ask me about the opposite drug, I answered truthfully, but I only interpreted his behavior as a child's curiosity, and didn't take it to heart. I really didn't expect him to secretly inject it, yes My negligence." The more Tao Henghuan said, the more annoyed he became: "I'm sorry, I didn't do what you asked me to do well."

"It's not your fault, he's not your responsibility." Gu Qing said to Tao Henghuan.

Tao Henghuan was indeed at fault, but it was not the main responsibility, more of it was Gu Qing's fault.Gu Qing gave him superhuman abilities, but failed to lead him to the path where he could use his abilities in time.He can understand Chen Qi's approach. Gaia would rather stay in the future than be trapped in the past.He has not yet learned the ability to peek into the future, and after "falling asleep", he can only be trapped in the past. With only a teenage life, no amount of sweet past will become boring, no amount of touching will become numb, It can't satisfy Gaia's pursuit of truth at all.Stopping is a correct choice, otherwise you will become a narrow-minded lunatic while waiting for others to be redeemed.

From this point of view, it is entirely Gu Qing's fault. He did not tell him the way to see the future in time and train him. He is the first Gaia who can't even train the next one well.

"Will he gradually become demented?" Tao Henghuan asked.

"No." Gu Qing said to Tao Henghuan: "He was born with a brain injury, like a man-made dam on a river that often floods. It is submerged when the tide rises, but when the tide ebbs, the dam will also help store water. He still You are much smarter than ordinary people, you can relax."

"Thank you." Tao Henghuan covered his face, "I should pay more attention to him."

"It's okay, I don't blame you, he has his reasons for whatever he wants, and he can do whatever he wants."

"Thank you." Tao Henghuan choked up.

This is not to comfort him. Gaia can do whatever he wants. From the first term, they have done what they want without any coercion or reluctance. A Gaia can do whatever he wants to achieve. That's it.Lu Qing lowered his head to look at the sleeping Chen Qi, the child pursed his lips thinly, not knowing what kind of past he was seeing in his sleep.

"That thing is suitable for him." Gu Qing said to him: "I told you that it was originally prepared for him, but I didn't expect him to use it so early."

He used the gift that Gu Qing left him in advance.Lu Qing lost his double insurance.

Lu Qing thinks this is normal, every Gaia will have a backup plan, but there is never double insurance.Just like when Juan prepared two successors, apart from making things more complicated, it didn't reduce any workload for him.It's too late to train another successor, and Gu Qing won't have the extra energy and time to do this, the rest of the way can only depend on himself.

Lu Qing suddenly felt a little more relaxed, relying on himself would always make him feel a little easier.

"I'll go first. When he wakes up, ask him what he wants to do, and let him do whatever he wants."

"He said to get his dad to pick him up and leave, he doesn't want to come to this place again."

"It's okay," Gu Qing said in a deep voice, "If he doesn't like it, let him go."

"Then why do you keep asking me to train him?" Tao Henghuan asked anxiously, "Since Tao Shuangyao, why have you done everything?"

In order to let him spare Leon when he was a child without killing Willis.Lu Qing looked at him, but couldn't answer his question directly.In the history of Gaia, the two or three generations who entered the world would suffer extraordinarily. They had to intersect with ordinary people and had to keep an appropriate distance from them. This is not difficult for Gaia, but for those who It is a very painful thing for ordinary people they have been in contact with for a long time.

It was Willis before, and so is Tao Henghuan now.If this pain can end with him, it will be a very good ending.

"I will say sorry to Tao Shuangyao when I have a chance in the future." Gu Qing thought for a while and said to him.

"Why did you say sorry to him?" Tao Henghuan's voice trembled after waiting for this answer, "He became a better person because of you and got a different life. I'm just worried about what to do with your affairs ? After so many years of training, it’s impossible to just give up and give up, right?”

"I will take care of my affairs." Gu Qing said to him: "You don't have to come here to work in the future, and concentrate on doing what you want to do. Please help me save my last work salary for Tao Shuangyao. I hope He'll be better off in the future."

"Would you rather never see me again than answer this question?"

"I thank you for your dedication." Gu Qing said seriously: "After Chen Qi returns to China, you can officially leave here."

"I'm just," Tao Henghuan carefully selected each word, "Yes, I want to do something more for you."

"Heng Huan, I don't need it." Lu Qing shook his head, "You think more about yourself."

Tao Henghuan lowered his head in silence, and Gu Qing stepped forward to look at the sleeping Chen Qi again.He is inexplicably similar to himself, if there is no such twists and turns, he will grow into another self, see the future that Gu Qing can't see, and share those pictures with Gu Qing, just like he did with Juan before.Both of them missed that opportunity.

There are always regrets, but fortunately, life is not always regrettable.

Gu Qing didn't come home until early in the morning.Leon, who had been working hard recently, didn't go back to his room, but slept on the sofa with an open hardcover math book under his pillow.In the cold spring weather, he was only wrapped in a blanket, but his face was slightly flushed, and there was sweat on his forehead.Lu Qing pressed his forehead with the palm of his hand, he unconsciously wiped off his sweat twice, then turned to face up and continued to sleep.Gu Qing rolled down the blanket on his body, and then saw the prints on his light blue pajama pants.A small piece, but enough to startle.

After Gu Qing let go, Leon rolled the blanket tightly around his neck and continued to sleep.He rested on the famous mapping transformation formula, and rubbed the two pages of the book until they were wrinkled, as if he had become a variable in the formula, and became a grown-up person in another space.

Gu Qing squatted down and looked at him, unlike Chen Qi who was very serious when he was asleep, Leon's mouth was upturned when he was sleeping, he was still a young man full of energy.

He watched for ten seconds, then got up and went upstairs.This year's Magnolia is placed on the table. Unlike last year's branch that was in full bloom, this year's branch has only one flower that is about to bloom, and the rest are still pale white buds.The flower was not lying on the table, but was inserted into a bright yellow porcelain vase with some water in it.Lu Qing sat on the chair and looked at it for a while, then opened the card attached to Yulan——

Catherine said that the flowers stored in this way will bloom for a long time, and I wish our family-friendly man will stay young forever.

Gu Qing couldn't help laughing.He really needs such a blessing now, he wants to live for a while longer, to witness with his own eyes the opening of another new chapter of evolution of human beings, and to see more of what Leon looks like when he grows up.

Gu Qing pressed the card under the vase and opened his mail.After only a few emails, Darcy marked the emails urging the algorithm in red letters, Lilian sent the latest work progress and the animal experiments that the laboratory needed to purchase, Gu Qing swipe down, and chose Tao Henghuan's email.

FROM: Tao Henghuan's work report and farewell.

Professor Qing Gu,

Chen Qi has stabilized and has been taken back to China by his father. He is in a good state of mind. Please don't worry.

I transferred your work remuneration into your original account and found that you have canceled the account.I will keep this money and return it to you when I have a chance in the future.

You no longer need my work here. I will take Tao Shuangyao back to China next week and live in the capital for a long time. But I will always pay attention to the situation of Chen Qi in CL City to ensure that he grows up without worry.

If you need me, please let me know at the first time, I will rush back to you immediately, and I am very willing to serve you again.

It has been an honor to work with you for the past 10 years, you are a light of truth in my heart, a beacon that will never go out.I wish you success in your work and wish Lyon a healthy growth.I'm sorry that I can't say more in front of you. If I'm rude, I hope you will forgive me.

恒欢

RE: Debriefing and farewell.

Heng Huan,

Thank you for the work you have done for Chen Qi in the past 8 years, and please do not attribute what happened to him to your fault.He is a person who knows what he wants, and I believe he will have blockbuster results in a few years.

If you live in Beijing for a long time, you may meet a man named Gu Qing who works at Siemens. He is my younger brother. I think you will become good friends.

It was also a pleasure to work with you, and I wish you all the best in your next steps.
