Autistic genius, a flourishing era of scientific research

Jiang Yan...

Qin Yuxin turned around and glanced at Jiang Yan's position.

What on earth did she go to do with Liang Haoxue?

It seems unnecessary to skip classes? She didn't know what Jiang Yan was planning now.

Jiang Yan and Liang Haoxue, who were being missed, were now near the Xiaoyu City Machinery Factory.

The location of the machinery factory is a little bit remote, further out in the suburbs of Liufeng. There are not many buildings here, but there are several newly built areas.

Maybe there are new development plans in the urban planning.

Liang Haoxue doesn't know how to ride a bicycle, so Jiang Yan rode a bicycle and came here following Liang Haoxue's instructions.

She originally planned to ask someone for directions, but Liang Haoxue knew the way, and she insisted on following her. Liang Haoxue seemed to be in a different state when she returned to school. Jiang Yan thought about it carefully and took her with her.

At noon, she went to Zhou Qingshan's office to ask for leave, and made up a random reason, but Zhou Qingshan did not agree.

After leaving the office, Jiang Yan did not return to the classroom, but directly climbed over the wall and left the school.

The school had a low wall, no surveillance cameras, and no patrolling guards, so it was easy for her to climb over.

She even carried her bicycle out.

After jumping off the wall, I found that Liang Haoxue was also climbing over the wall, and her movements were also very skillful.

When they arrived near the machinery factory, Jiang Yan locked the bicycle and hid it in a nearby grass cage. Liang Haoxue cleverly pulled grass from other places to cover the bicycle.

Jiang Yan walked in front, and Liang Haoxue walked a little behind her. The wound on her face looked much better than last week.

"Why are you here? My dad wanted to work in the factory, and he came here several times when we were selling things on the street, so I'm familiar with this road."

Liang Haoxue remained silent all the way, but finally couldn't help but ask.

But Jiang Yan didn't answer her question. Liang Haoxue also knew that Jiang Yan probably wouldn't pay attention to her. If she couldn't lead the way, Jiang Yan probably wouldn't be willing to take her with him.

Unexpectedly, after a while Jiang Yan answered her:

"Scouting the location."

"Ah?" Liang Haoxue didn't understand what she meant and looked confused. Jiang Yan didn't explain any further.

The two walked around the machinery factory several times. They were looked at several times by the security personnel at the factory gate. Liang Haoxue was a little scared by the looks and whispered:

"The security guys at the machinery factory are pretty aggressive. Shouldn't we just stay out of here? If you know anyone you want to call out, I can run some errands for you."

Jiang Yan thought she was noisy, but she was also a little confused. She turned around and glanced at Liang Haoxue, then walked to where the bicycle was hidden, picked it up, and asked her:

"Why did you follow me out?"

The girl holding the bicycle was silent for a moment, a gloomy look flashed across her face, and then she said:

"I don't want to stay in school anyway. In fact, I don't really want to study anymore, but my mom keeps asking me to study."

"Sometimes I really don't understand. Jiang Yan, you know what? Except for my mom, no one in my family wants me to study. My grandparents and my dad all want me to go back to work. But I just want to go against them, so I always listen to my mom and come to school."

"But didn't I make money with you? Now they want me to come every day to study. Last Monday, I had no intention of coming. I was forced to come."

"They only want money, so I don't want to satisfy them. They didn't let me study before, but I insisted on studying. Now they force me to study just so that I can continue to make money from you. I don't want to study now."

"So when I saw you coming out, I followed you out. But you, with such good grades, always answered the questions correctly in class, and even got into the competition class, why...are you still skipping classes?"

Jiang Yan rode forward, the wind folded the collar and corners of her white shirt, and lifted her long, soft, black hair.

Liang Haoxue's question was destined to go unanswered. After she spoke out her true feelings, she sat silently on the back seat of the bicycle, watching the slightly loose shirt of the person in front of her being blown open by the wind, outlining the curve of his slender waist.

"Where are we going now?" Liang Haoxue asked.

"Food factory." Jiang Yan said concisely, "Do you know the way?"

Liang Haoxue nodded. "I know. To earn tuition money, my mom and I set up a stall near the food factory to sell straw sandals and backpacks. The people in the factory were relatively wealthy, and they didn't have time to go to the market during work. Our straw sandals were easy to sell unless they happened to be on holiday. But they're not selling well now. Only a few people who like wearing straw sandals buy them. Many people buy other shoes instead."

"They sell well when they first bloom. My mother said she's going to follow the village barefoot doctor up the mountain to dig some herbs so she can sell them for some money."

Liang Haoxue probably opened up her chatterbox today. Jiang Yan asked her a question and she could spontaneously say a lot. After she finished speaking, Jiang Yan said:

"Guide the way."

Liang Haoxue had no choice but to lead the way from behind. As time passed, dusk approached and the sunlight began to become milder.

"You've listened to all I've said, and you're not going to say a word?" Halfway through giving directions, Liang Haoxue couldn't help but ask Jiang Yan.

Although she knew that Jiang Yan was a quiet person who didn't pay much attention to others, she still wanted to hear what Jiang Yan had to say after she had said so much.

Jiang Yan said: "There's nothing much to say."

Liang Haoxue: "..."

"Don't you feel sorry for me? And my grandparents don't treat me well, do they?"

She didn't know what was wrong with her. Many people in her class had a vague idea about her family situation. Even her good friends were either angry or felt sorry for her after hearing what she said, such as that her grandparents didn't allow her to go to school.

When others felt sorry for her, Liang Haoxue felt warm in her heart, but at the same time she also felt an indescribable embarrassment and discomfort.

She felt that she didn't want to be pitied, but at this moment she found that she seemed to need to be pitied.

So now that Jiang Yan had no reaction, Liang Haoxue couldn't help but continue asking questions.

Jiang Yan ignored Liang Haoxue's question.

Liang Haoxue finally understood what other classmates meant when they said that Jiang Yan was difficult to get along with, cold and a little annoying.

But she doesn't hate Jiang Yan. No matter what others think of Jiang Yan, to Liang Haoxue, Jiang Yan is the best person to her besides her family.

It’s just that today I got to know Jiang Yan more clearly.

In the past, she ran errands for Jiang Yan. When it came to topics related to running errands, even if Liang Haoxue asked a lot of questions, Jiang Yan would answer them clearly.

In fact, she rarely encountered Jiang Yan not speaking or answering.

I experienced it all today.

He is indifferent, speaks little, and ignores people.

Jiang Yan was indifferent, but she didn't show any annoyance, nor did she interrupt others. Instead, Liang Haoxue couldn't help but say more:

"I envy you so much. I wish I could be as rich as you."

Liang Haoxue swung her legs on the back of the bicycle, then moved her hands to the front of her body, tightly grasping the edge of the back seat. She looked up at the cloudless sky and murmured:

"You know, there's only one family in our village that owns a bicycle. Whenever someone in the village has a big event or gets married, they go to that family and pay to borrow a bicycle. The kids in our village often watch from the roadside. I used to really hope that I could ride a bicycle when I got married."

"I didn't expect to get on your bike first."
