shining

When Quan Huachen came out of the airport, he found that it was snowing in City A. The first snow this year happened to fall on the winter solstice at the end of December. The auspicious snow is a sign of a good year, which is a good sign no matter how you look at it.

Thinking of seeing Kang Zhuo soon, Quan Huachen took even bigger steps.

Quan Huachen's plane originally departed from country D at noon, but he temporarily changed the flight time to seven o'clock in the morning, and it happened to be noon when he arrived in city A.Quan Huachen knew that Kang Zhuo had class in the afternoon, so he didn't give him any news for the time being because he was afraid of disturbing his rest.

This is Quan Huachen's second visit to City A after returning to Country D in early November. He came back to spend a weekend with Kang Zhuo at the end of November, and flew back on Sunday afternoon, but this time he can stay for a long time One o'clock, spend New Year's Day with Kang Zhuo before leaving.

In fact, according to Quan Huachen's original itinerary plan, he will return to China two days later, but yesterday Kang Zhuo called him, saying that his experiment was not done well, and he said sadly that he wanted to see Quan Huachen and asked Quan Huachen what time to come back.

You must know that Kang Zhuo has always been very sensible. He asked Quan Huachen to pay attention to his body when he was working, and went home early to rest, but he never mentioned that Quan Huachen would return to China. He even said several times that Quan Huachen would fly back to see him. Time to simply refuse.

If Kang Zhuo took the initiative to ask Quan Huachen when he would come back, then he must need Quan Huachen very much.

So Quan Huachen immediately booked a ticket for the next day to return home, and they agreed that they would see Kang Zhuo after class in the afternoon.

Quan Huachen knew about Kang Zhuo's experiment, and he would report his progress to Quan Huachen every day.

Since the beginning of the month, Kang Zhuo has been classifying the pheromones of two new subspecies of Aibo moth. A male Aibo comet moth obviously has S-type pheromone receptor molecules, which should theoretically be consistent with the information of most female Aibo moths. The matching degree of pheromone is low or even not matched, but the general test results are just the opposite, it matches well with most of the pheromones of female moths.

If there is no error in Kang Zhuo's experimental data, this is likely to be a big discovery that shocked the gland world.

In order to confirm this result, Kang Zhuo spent nearly two weeks doing a detailed test, that is, to test the matching degree between the pheromone of this male moth and the pheromone samples of almost all existing female philodendron moths.

There are nearly 1000 kinds of pheromones in the existing female philodendron moth. Kang Zhuo has a huge workload. After the colleagues in the laboratory learned the news, they would come to help him whenever they had time. Kang Zhuo was very grateful and took care of them. Time for milk tea and supper.

After everyone's unremitting efforts, the precise test was finally completed two weeks later. The final result showed that this S-type male moth has a "super alpha pheromone", which can match more than 95% of the female moth pheromones, and the matching degree is the lowest All are above 50%.

After Kang Zhuo got the data, he wrote a report overnight and handed it to Liu Ming. He was so excited that he almost stayed up all night.

But the next day Liu Ming called him to the office, first praised his spirit of exploration, and then asked him a question——

"Are you sure this is an S-type Aibo moth?"

Kang Zhuo froze for a moment, and said: "On page 2 of the report, there is a molecular map of its pheromone receptor under the microscope, which is indeed of the S class."

Liu Ming smiled, and handed him a piece of A4 paper with several groups of pheromone receptor molecules printed on it. In this picture, there are very few C-type molecules mixed with S-type receptor molecules.

Kang Zhuo was puzzled, this would never happen under natural circumstances, unless someone deliberately mixed S-type pheromones with C-type pheromones, but he understood Liu Ming's expression immediately.

"Is this also the molecular map of the pheromone receptors of the male Ebomoth?"

Liu Ming nodded: "This morning I redid the classification experiment and extracted pheromones from different parts of the abdominal segment, antennae, and wings, and finally got this molecular map based on the pheromones at the abdominal segment."

It was like a blow to the head, Kang Zhuo understood everything.

The glands of this philodendron moth are quite peculiar, and can produce two types of pheromones, S and C, at the same time, which led to Kang Zhuo's data error.However, the secretion of C-type pheromone receptor molecules is very small, and it can only be detected by extracting pheromones from the abdominal segment close to the glands. It is Kang Zhuo's carelessness.

In this way, the hard work of Kang Zhuo and the entire laboratory for two weeks was all for naught.

With complex emotions stuck in his throat, Kang Zhuo asked again unwillingly: "So we didn't discover a new type of pheromone, but just encountered a gland mutation of an insect?"

Liu Ming was right: "Although the specific cause of the mutation remains to be further studied, it is most likely caused by dysplasia or glandular disease."

Kang Zhuo was completely speechless.

Because of Kang Zhuo's negligence in pheromone extraction, he not only wasted a lot of equipment and materials in the laboratory, but also wasted the precious time of his colleagues.

Everyone was waiting for the good news from Kang Zhuo, but it was actually just a misunderstanding.

Liu Ming patted Kang Zhuo on the shoulder and comforted him: "It's okay, young people gain their wisdom by eating a pit, and it's amazing to find this kind of gland mutation, so pay attention next time."

Kang Zhuo felt a feeling of falling like stepping into the air. He thanked Liu Ming and left the laboratory in a daze.

This is not the first time Kang Zhuo fell in the experiment, but this time the fall was extremely painful, so painful that he couldn't help calling Quan Huachen and saying that he wanted to see him.

Sitting in the taxi, Quan Huachen was thinking all the way how to comfort Kang Zhuo and how to make him happy.

Quan Huachen thought that before he left, he sent Lanlan to Liao Yifan's house for foster care. Kang Zhuo liked Lanlan very much. If Quan Huachen took Lanlan to A University to pick up Kang Zhuo after school in the afternoon, he might be pleasantly surprised.

Soon, Quan Huachen dragged his suitcase to the front of the house, unlocked it with his fingerprints and pushed the door open in one go.

However, in the next second, he was shocked in place.

——The living room was a "mess", with colorful balloons scattered on the floor, some still hanging on the wall, ribbons and colored lights all over the floor, and a bunch of candles on the coffee table.

And in the center of this "mess", Kang Zhuo, who was supposed to be taking a lunch break in the school dormitory, and Golden Retriever Lanlan, who was supposed to be at Liao Yifan's house, were sitting.

Kang Zhuo, with minion glasses on his nose and a funny mustache on his mouth, tried to put a conical hat with colored stripes on his lazy head, but at this time the hair on his head had been clipped One left and one right hairpin with two bows.

Hearing the movement at the door, both Kang Zhuo and Lanlan opened their eyes wide and turned their heads to look over. The scene was very funny for a moment.

Lazy: "?"

Kang Zhuo: "!!!"

Quan Huachen: "..."

The two of them and the dog just looked at each other wordlessly for a while, laziness was less burdened, and ran towards Quan Huachen with its tongue out, halfway through the run, the conical hat slipped onto his chin.

"Uncle," Kang Zhuo was so frightened that he called him back, "You, didn't you say that you will arrive in the evening?"

"What? Don't want to see me?"

"No……"

There was no expression on Quan Huachen's face, and Kang Zhuo didn't know if he was angry, he sat stiffly on the ground and didn't dare to move.

Quan Huachen threw the suitcase aside, straightened his hat for Lanlan, changed into slippers, took off his coat, walked around a pile of small things, stood beside Kang Zhuo, and took off his glasses Putting aside his beard, he stretched out his hand to pinch his side face.

"I haven't seen you for a few days. You support Lanlan's ascension to the throne, right? He is responsible for demolishing the house, and you are responsible for rebuilding it."

Although Quan Huachen's tone was ferocious, but the smile in his eyes was clear, Kang Zhuo's stiff waist immediately softened, he took Quan Huachen's hand and moaned, and Quan Huachen took advantage of the situation on the carpet beside him Sitting down, Lanlan insisted on squeezing in between the two of them.

"No, I haven't fixed it yet." Kang Zhuo hugged the dog with one hand, and hid the card on the ground behind his buttocks with the other. Quan Huachen found out and snatched it.

"What are you doing? Make the living room like this."

Quan Huachen's movements were so fast that Kang Zhuo had no time to stop him from opening the card, so the three-dimensional cake picture in the card popped out along with the happy birthday song, and there was a line of neat small characters under the cake.

[Happy birthday to Brother Chen! 】

This was obviously unexpected by Quan Huachen, he was stunned at the card.

"If you come back in the evening, I'll be able to decorate the living room." Kang Zhuo picked up a small pink balloon in his hand, and said with some embarrassment, "Welcome home, brother Chen, happy birthday."

Originally according to Kang Zhuo's plan, he would take Quan Huachen to a romantic dinner at night, and then give him a big surprise when he returned home, and then send him a carefully prepared gift, how perfect.

But now the surprise has turned into fright, and the balloons and lanterns he prepared have lost their meaning.

"How do you know that my birthday is today?" Quan Huachen returned the birthday card to Kang Zhuo, the expression on his face was still calm, and Kang Zhuo couldn't tell what he was thinking, but he gradually smelled the pheromone of brandy.

"I saw it from the photo of you and your ex." Kang Zhuo accidentally removed one of the small hairpins on the lazy head, and after thinking about it, he took off the other one too.

Kang Zhuo would know Quan Huachen's birthday because of the picture package Yin Dongfan sent him. Among the photos of Quan Huachen and his ex, there was a picture of Quan Huachen making a wish on the birthday cake on December 12 of the year before last.

"Why did you pick it up?" Quan Huachen put the card back on Lanlanan again, "So you called me yesterday to say that you failed the experiment, and you wanted me to come back to celebrate my birthday?"

Kang Zhuo nodded embarrassingly: "Actually, the experiment took place last week. I have adjusted it a long time ago. There is nothing to be sad about, but it is a bit embarrassing. In order to comfort me that night, our boss specially invited the whole laboratory together. We ate."

"I was hesitant to use any reason to call you back. You just said that you have a week off from this weekend to New Year's Day, so I tried to ask if you could come back earlier. Did it delay your work?"

It was rare for Kang Zhuo to be self-willed in front of Quan Huachen, and it was to celebrate Quan Huachen's birthday.

The heating in the room is very good, Quan Huachen looked at Kang Zhuo in front of him, and felt that the heavy snow outside fell on his heart and turned into a bowl full of spring water. Every time Kang Zhuo said a word, the spring water would rippling and slide down the edge of the bowl , accumulated at the bottom of the bowl and crumbled, Quan Huachen couldn't swallow it all.

"No, I'm very happy."

The aroma of brandy is getting stronger and stronger, as if it is burning fiercely in the air.

Quan Huachen's eyes and pheromones were too hot, and Kang Zhuo couldn't catch it at all. He stood up and wanted to run, muttering something in his mouth: "I just brought Lanlan back from Brother Liao's house, and I don't know if it has eaten or not." I'm going to feed it some dog food."

Quan Huachen suddenly grabbed his ankle when he passed behind him, Kang Zhuo was unprepared, and was about to fall, Quan Huachen turned around and let him fall straight into his arms.

Kang Zhuo supported Quan Huachen's broad shoulders and sat on his lap, just as he felt his ass was pinched by something, when suddenly a big hand grabbed the back of his head.

Quan Huachen raised his head and bit the tender lips he had been looking at for a long time, stuck his tongue in, and kissed him deeply.

"Don't feed the dog yet, baby, feed me."
