Autistic genius, a flourishing era of scientific research

Chapter 166 I'm More Gentle Than You

Song Yuwei went out again. It was a rare occasion that she didn't have to look after the children at home today, so of course she went out to chat and gossip with the sisters-in-law she had recently met.

Si Cizhan and Jiang Xiaowen cleaned the house together. Xia Fei and Liming rode their bikes over immediately after lunch. The five teenagers gathered in the living room and discussed things from time to time. Neither of them disturbed them.

Because of Lu Qinghuan's joining, she didn't know much and just helped Jiang Yan, such as comparing the calculations of the three of them with the answers given by Jiang Yan, or asking about the device.

She also couldn't understand what they were calculating, such as probability, energy, or improvement.

Si Cizhan found out something in the morning and originally wanted to ask Jiang Yan to see if he could get any information out of her. However, she was with a few people of the same age and he had no chance to interrupt.

This was probably the first time he felt the gap in age and status with Jiang Yan.

Compared to being ignored when he was talking to Jiang Yan, this situation where he had no right to interrupt at all came a little too suddenly, making him feel a little at a loss after finishing the housework with Jiang Xiaowen.

Jiang Xiaowen didn't notice his brother's abnormality. After finishing the weekend cleaning of the house, he immediately hooked his arm around Si Cizhan's neck and went out, while instructing the young men at home:

"We're going out for a bit and will be back soon. Don't run around. Yanyan, watch your arms. Huanhuan, please keep an eye on her for me."

Lu Qinghuan immediately responded, "Okay."

The other three also nodded, repeatedly promising to pay attention to Jiang Yan's arm and not let her move around.

"What's the matter?" As soon as he walked out the door and walked a distance in the corridor, Si Cizhan asked Jiang Xiaowen.

He knew Jiang Xiaowen's expression very well. He must have something to discuss with him.

"Let's talk about Yanyan's school affairs while we're downstairs. First, tell me how your investigation went this morning."

Si Cizhan told Jiang Xiaowen what he had found out. Jiang Xiaowen thought about it with him, but they still couldn't figure out why Jiang Yan went to the machinery factory.

Finally, he said, "Maybe we just happened to meet while strolling around at night."

Then he took out the letter Jiang Yan gave him from his pocket and motioned Si Cizhan to open it and take a look.

Si Cizhan opened the envelope and read it. He had already read the indictment once in the newspaper. He had not found a chance to ask Jiang Yan about it today. Now that he saw the "small poster" in the envelope, he looked like a storm was brewing.

Jiang Xiaowen said: "Yan Yan means that we should go with the flow."

Si Cizhan looked up at the sky. It was getting late. In another hour or two, he and Jiang Xiaowen would have to return to the army.

"push."

He opened his lips and spoke a word, just as decisively as he had given instructions during previous missions.

He thought of today's newspaper, and then of Qin Yuxin. Whether they just went with the flow or not, they would no longer be able to have a big impact on this matter.

As soon as the indictment was published in the newspaper, the basic situation had already unfolded.

The only thing that is difficult to determine is that the public opinion in these newspapers may not necessarily shake the Rong family. If they want to go with the flow, they must focus on this point.

The two briefly discussed countermeasures, and then each called their contact to find out the situation.

Si Cizhan made the first call. There were many people he could contact, but after thinking it over, he chose to find his brother.

It took some time for a phone call to reach Canghai City. When Si Cifeng answered the phone in his office, he thought it was someone from his subordinates coming to report on their work.

Because of the opening of Canghai City by the General Order of Xia State, there have been a lot of things happening in the government office in recent years. After settling in the local area for many years, he saw the situation clearly. Under the arrangement of General Si and his own choice, he gave up returning to Sijiu City and came to Canghai City instead.

He was tasked with the task of being the chief official. Not only did he have to manage the situation in Canghai City well and prevent too much chaos from arising from its opening up, he also had to assist his superiors in cleaning out the hidden spies in Canghai City and some organizations and groups that were detrimental to the country's development.

In the past few years, Si Cifeng rarely returned to the city of Beijing as he was busy every year.

Occasionally he would come back, but it was always in a hurry and he would leave after a day or two.

"Brother." The short and powerful voice coming from the other end of the phone made Si Cifeng a little stunned. He put down his pen and asked curiously, "Xiao Ci?!"

The seriousness he showed towards his subordinates instantly disappeared, and Si Cifeng's voice became gentle, with a hint of longing in his tone:

"What's up? You suddenly have time to contact me? I haven't seen you for a long time, and I haven't had time to talk to you on the phone. It's rare that you still remember me as your brother. In the past, during the New Year and other holidays, you only bought things for your sister and never gave me anything. I thought you had forgotten me as your brother and only remembered your sister in the city."

The reason why the two brothers couldn't talk to each other on the phone was either Si Cifeng or Si Cizhan was busy, but their feelings for each other never faded.

Si Ci Zhan couldn't help but smile when he heard his brother say that. The smile diluted his expressionless face, and added a bit of gentleness like the breeze supporting the moon. Then he habitually returned to his cold and indifferent look.

"Even if I gave you something, you wouldn't be able to use it. Mom always says that too many people give you gifts, and some have to accept them. She can't even give you the things she has in her hands. You'll despise her for taking up space, so it's useless for me to prepare anything for you. I'd rather prepare more gifts for my sister. My nephew is going to be born early next year."

Si Cifeng leaned back in his chair and laughed, "Yeah, my little sister is about to give birth. The last time I went back, she didn't even argue with me about who was the older sister and who was the older brother. She really grew up after getting married."

Because Si Cifeng and Si Qing are twins, the issue of who is the boss has never disappeared from their mouths since they were young.

Even when I grew up, I often joked about this topic, and sometimes when something happened, I would childishly take it seriously.

"Brother, I need you to do something. If you can't do it in Canghai City, please find someone for me." Si Cizhan and Si Cifeng reminisced about the past for a while, and then talked about the phone call.

Si Cifeng raised his eyebrows slightly, his gentle eyes showing a hint of inquiry. "Is there anything else you need me for in the army? It's not some secret I can't hear, is it? Your situation is special, and you're at a special stage right now. Don't make any mistakes, or even I won't be able to protect you."

The concern coming from the other side of the microphone made Si Cizhan's deep eyes more warm. He hummed to show that he understood:

"It has nothing to do with me, and it's certainly not a secret..."

After briefly explaining Jiang Yan's situation, Si Cifeng thought for a moment and said, "Okay, don't worry about this. Xiaowen is by your side? You seem to care about your sister Xiaowen quite a lot. A few months ago, I heard from the brothers in Sijiu City that you were looking for study materials. Are you looking for them for her?"

Si Cizhan: "Yes. It's not easy for me to intervene directly in this matter. Brother, you can arrange for someone to solve it."

"Okay, don't worry. Also, let Jiang Yan study hard. Since you have acknowledged this sister, when we meet in the future, I, as her brother, will have to test her knowledge."

Si Cizhan: "...She probably won't recognize you." Even he is just his brother's friend.

In Jiang Yan's eyes, Jiang Xiaowen is probably the only brother she has.

Si Cifeng, who was poured cold water on, found it even more funny: "That's not necessarily true. Am I not much gentler than you?"

Although Si Cifeng was working overtime for himself, he did have other things to do. After talking to Si Cizhan for a few more words, he hung up the phone and called the person who could directly handle the matter.
