Chapter 160 I am proud to be your son
Ning Yao frowned upon hearing Ning Moran's assistant's words.
Spending 24 hours a day in the lab means you don't socialize and therefore don't have friends.
That won't do. People who don't socialize for a long time will become too isolated, which is detrimental to their physical and mental health.
"Does he have a girlfriend?" Ning Yao regretted asking the question as soon as it left her mouth.
He doesn't socialize at all, so how could he have a girlfriend? Judging from his serious and aloof demeanor, he probably won't be in a relationship early on.
The assistant looked at Ning Yao suspiciously, remaining silent for a long time as her mind raced, trying to figure out Ning Yao's intentions.
Was she subtly inquiring about Ning Moran's romantic history?
No, he had to answer this question properly; he couldn't let Ning Moran lose the girlfriend he had finally found.
"Do you want him to have it or not?" Unconsciously, the assistant also started using a respectful title for Ning Yao, just like Ning Moran.
"Me?" Ning Yao seemed surprised that her assistant would throw the question back at her, and was momentarily stunned.
"As long as my son is happy, nothing else matters. I will support him unconditionally."
Ning Moran happened to walk in and heard Ning Yao's words. His expression froze for a moment, but he quickly broke into a smile.
A few days ago, when Ning Moran received the CKLS International Award for Fungal Biology, he was invited to the stage to give his acceptance speech.
Someone asked him what his greatest achievement is so far, and what he is most proud of.
Without much hesitation, he said with a cold and serious face, "The thing I am most proud of in my life is being my mother's son."
He worked very hard to become better and better, hoping that one day he could hear the same words from Ning Yao's mouth.
Do you know what his hobbies are, what his favorite foods are?
Ning Yao sighed. Even though she wasn't sure if Ning Moran was her child, she had unwittingly become his mother and was now worrying about all the things a mother should worry about.
"You can ask me directly."
Ning Moran suddenly appeared, and Ning Yao was startled, her hand trembled, and she accidentally knocked over the test tubes on the table.
The assistant was terrified and turned pale. That thing in the test tube was Ning Moran's lifeblood!
The new strain of beneficial bacteria took three whole months to develop, and it's aimed at winning a biology prize in the second half of the year. I treasure it like the back of my hand!
If this gets polluted by the air, then three months of hard work will be wasted!
The assistant panicked and tried to put on isolation gloves, but he was just an ordinary person and too slow to save the bacteria in the test tubes.
I watched helplessly as the bacteria flowed out of the container, exposed to the air, and quickly turned gray, signifying its death.
The assistant had a long face, and Ning Yao secretly glanced at Ning Moran, feeling a pang of guilt.
"Is this something important? I'm sorry, it was so careless of me..."
Just as the assistant was about to say something, Ning Moran suddenly stepped forward and casually swept the results of her three months of hard work into the trash can.
"It's nothing, just experimental waste."
After speaking, Ning looked down at his ashen-faced assistant with a cold glance, issuing a silent warning.
The assistant felt a chill run down his spine under Ning Moran's gaze and dared not say a word, echoing his doctor's words, "Yes, yes, it's just a pile of experimental waste, nothing serious."
real or fake?
Would waste be left on the table, or carefully sealed in test tubes?
Ning Yao was half-believing and half-doubting when Ning Moran led her to the other side of the experimental table.
Ning Moran clearly didn't take it to heart and smiled as he introduced his research findings to Ning Yao.
Ning Yao gazed at the smooth, recessed wall, which contained all sorts of bottles and jars, some transparent and some dark, arranged neatly. A small piece of abbreviated lettering was inserted below each bottle, presumably for easy identification.
When Ning Moran talked about his experimental results, his eyes naturally lit up. Ning Yao could tell that her son really liked biology.
Ning Moran reminded her of her own Xiao Wu, who had also loved studying these fungal drugs since childhood. His passion and dedication brought her quite a few surprises, not just the human skin mask and the all-purpose fingerprint gloves.
"Ranran, what is this? It's that snow-white, translucent worm, all round."
"I caught it during an Arctic expedition. It's not known to exist among other insects, and I'm still studying it."
"You've been to the Arctic, which is very dangerous. It's good that you have the spirit of mountaineering and exploration, but you still need to be careful!"
"Okay, I'll try to avoid dangerous places like this in the future."
"My good son," Ning Yao said with satisfaction.
Meanwhile, the assistant, who was standing to the side acting as a third wheel, got goosebumps all over after hearing Ning Yao's words.
It's really unusual for Dr. Ning to have such a young and beautiful mother who is almost the same age as him.
Yet, strangely enough, there seems to be a touch of warmth in this unusual mother-son pairing.
"Hmm, what is this? An ice-blue slice, and on it are cells from an unknown organism?"
"This is something I created by hybridizing several deep-sea marine organisms. The slice shows the thin membrane on the surface of their internal organs, which has a very good healing effect. I plan to make it into a military-grade external wound ointment and turn it into a patented drug."
Ning Yao pointed to some novel gadgets in the laboratory, asking questions in a calm voice, occasionally startled like a child.
Ning Moran patiently explained, her face always bearing a gentle and doting smile, speaking freely and without reservation.
The two spent a full four hours in the lab, with their assistant beside them. The assistant listlessly raised his hand to cover his mouth and yawned.
He looked at Ning Moran and sighed inwardly, thinking that Dr. Ning had probably said everything he could say in his life all at once.
"Don't stay in the lab tonight, come home with your mother."
Ning Yao and Ning Moran have a strange telepathic connection, which only occurs between close relatives.
She naturally couldn't bear to see Ning Moran all alone in the cold laboratory.
After Ning Yao said she was going home with her mother, a deep meaning flashed in Ning Moran's eyes.
The assistant secretly imagined many stimulating scenes that were unsuitable for children, while muttering to himself.
Just as he expected, this female classmate was going to make a move on their innocent and inexperienced Dr. Ning...
“But I have to go to school to pick up Ai Xiu and Bao Ying from get out of class first. Their dad went abroad a while ago, so they've been staying at my place.” Ning Yao thought for a moment, then looked at Ning Moran and explained again.
"Aishu is my son, and Baoying is my daughter."
The assistant, who was drinking water, was shocked upon hearing this and immediately spat out a mouthful of mineral water.
Fortunately, he desperately turned his head and managed to veer off course in time, preventing his saliva from landing on the experimental equipment.
Otherwise, he might have been skinned alive and devoured by Ning Moran, who is a notoriously aloof and germaphobic young man...
The assistant patted his chest, still shaken. After calming down, he looked at Ning Yao with even more admiration.
He couldn't believe that Ning Yao had a child at such a young age, considering she looked like a college student.
Surprisingly, they have both a son and a daughter, and the children are already going to school with their schoolbags!
What's even more damning is that Dr. Ning, with such a personality, was actually willing to endure humiliation and become the mistress of a married woman.
Good heavens! Ning Yao has completely shattered his worldview to a whole new level!
