Chapter 490 Lu Minglei (Extra)
Lu Minglei was born into an old family. His ancestors had served as prime ministers.
The family had spent all its wealth during special times. Of course, these were all on the surface. In fact, old families would leave reserve funds for their descendants.
His grandfather was a great general before the founding of the People's Republic of China. He had been sent to the countryside for reform during that special era.
He grew up under his grandfather's care and was taught by his grandfather, so he was not like other children of wealthy families who were lazy and ignorant.
Since he was young, he was regarded as the child of other families by his acquaintances. He had excellent academic performance and skipped grades.
At the age of 14, he was admitted to a top university in the country. After graduating from university, he went abroad for further studies. After returning to China, he entered a research institute before he was 20 years old.
His daily job is to deal with various data, which is dull and boring.
Until one day, he saw one of his employees making a video call to his home. He was just passing by, but his hearing was so good that he overheard their conversation.
The data of vegetables is abnormal. Active molecules are detected? He is very sensitive to active molecules at this time.
Because his grandfather's health was damaged during his early years of being sent to the countryside for reform and he was suffering from illness at this time, he looked everywhere for medicinal herbs for his grandfather.
As if by some strange coincidence, he followed the employee to his hometown, where he met Lin Qingyan, who looked very out of place.
Although the girl's dress was no different from people today, the way she spoke sounded like she was from the deep mountains and had never seen the world.
But when he saw the ginseng that Lin Qingyan took out, shock flashed in his eyes. Was it really from the mountains?
He successfully bought a ginseng from the girl. At that time, he thought it was just an ordinary intersection, one buying and one selling. Besides, the price he offered was not low, at least it could improve the girl's life.
It wasn't until he took the ginseng back to the laboratory and extracted more active molecules from the ginseng that his grandfather's health improved significantly after using the ginseng.
He couldn't help but want to explore and find out what kind of place it was that could grow such good ginseng and such a girl.
Then he learned from laboratories in various places that someone had taken vegetables and fruits for testing, and found substances similar to those in ginseng. He remained silent.
In the end, he decided to send people to investigate, but they didn't find any obvious clues. However, he knew that there was something wrong with the girl. This was his intuition.
He intuitively felt that the girl had a story that would subvert his understanding of the story.
He had been keeping an eye on that girl, but that girl was very mysterious and elusive. He could not contact her or find her at all most of the time.
He had called the girl before, but the call was always unreachable. Only once did the call go through. What did he say at that time? It seemed to be an inquiry? He forgot.
The fresh food store that the girl opened with others soon caused a sensation in a small circle. Some people used their connections to test the ingredients of these vegetables.
The above ingredients have aroused some people and companies' concerns, and some people even compare them with their own medical examination reports.
Just before someone wanted to take action against the store, for some unknown reason, he used his connections to erase any information about the store on the Internet and suppressed all reports from the testing agencies.
He didn't know why he did this, but there was a voice in his heart telling him to suppress it, he had to suppress it.
Otherwise he might never have the chance to see the girl again, and he was worried that the girl would disappear from this world.
The days passed in such a dull and boring way. One year, an experiment in his laboratory showed abnormality. He was a little irritable. Under the persuasion of his parents, he went out to relax.
Seeing a girl sitting in a dessert shop on the street, he walked over, then walked back and found that it was the girl.
He went forward happily, wanting to get in touch with her more, but he said something that could lead to misunderstanding.
Looking at the wariness in the girl's eyes, he didn't know how to explain and missed the chance to explain.
After that, he never saw the girl again. Although their shop was open as usual, the girl rarely appeared in public.
Occasionally she would go to see her partner, but by the time he got the message and rushed over, the girl had left again.
Later, their shop closed, and except for the old couple in the mountain, no one in the country ever saw the girl again.
It is said that she often visited the couple in the mountains and also often visited her partners.
He once contacted her partner, wanting to meet the girl, but she sent him a very old ginseng directly through her partner, and the girl did not agree to meet him.
Until he grew old, he never saw the girl again.
When he was old and gray, she had regretted countless times that if he had not been so mean, he might have been able to become friends with her.
He didn't dare to hope for anything else, but he never knew that even ordinary friends became a luxury.
