The Third Military Hospital.
Chen Mo wandered back and forth, his face changed from his usual calmness, his face was full of anxiety, and his palms were already sweating.
It has been almost two months since Xinxin was kidnapped. The news of that incident was blocked and not many people knew about it. The news of Dihaofang revealed to the outside world that it was a fight between enemies seeking revenge.
Later, the Marching Ant Group deliberately released the news of the start-up of the controlled nuclear fusion power plant in a high-profile manner, stirring up the world situation. Various hot news broke out one after another. The news was quickly submerged in the wave of news and has now disappeared.
During this period of time, there was no news about him from the outside world, and he did not appear in front of the public. He devoted himself wholeheartedly to the laboratory. When he received the news that Xiaoyu was about to give birth, he dropped all research and rushed over as quickly as possible.
This was probably the most uneasy day he had felt in a long time.
Mother Chen, the little fisherman Wang Lan and Aunt Zhen were all waiting anxiously. Several people's faces were serious, nervous, or anxious. In just a few minutes, it felt like hours had passed.
The air was infected and became tense, and everyone looked at the door next to the corridor. A door is like two universes separated by different speeds of time.
The door suddenly opened and everyone rushed to greet it.
Seeing the nurse coming out with a baby in her arms, the solemn and anxious atmosphere instantly dissipated, and everyone smiled happily. The change from solemnity to joy makes the air cheerful.
"Congratulations, Mr. Chen, you are a little princess." The nurse smiled.
"Thank you, where is Xiaoyu?"
"Ms. Xiaoyu's physical condition is stable, but she still needs to be checked before she can be released," the nurse said.
"Okay, thank you nurse, thank you very much."
Chen Mo was relieved, and his nervous face finally showed joy. This was the first time in the past two months that he had shown such a smile from the heart.
"Come, daddy, give me a hug first." The nurse held the baby in front of Chen Mo and said.
"okay."
Chen Mo rubbed his palms and carefully took the swaddle from the nurse's arms, even more carefully than he was holding the most precious glass cup. A big man who was usually nimble in his movements had become clumsy. At this time, Chen Mo was even more excited than if he had successfully developed an epoch-making technology.
The baby was sleeping peacefully in the swaddling clothes, with his eyes closed tightly, and his skin had not grown open, but still looked wrinkled. The intimacy of blood connection made Chen Mo overjoyed, as happy as a big child, and he instantly felt the weight of responsibility.
Seeing the expectant elders next to him, Chen Mo handed over the baby in his arms.
The moment she took over the baby, Mother Chen was beaming with joy, her face was radiant, she was smiling from ear to ear, and she seemed to be ten years younger in an instant. The little fisherman and Aunt Zhen nearby hurriedly gathered around and looked at the baby carefully, their eyes full of doting.
After a while, Xiaoyu was pushed out of the delivery room. His face was haggard and pale, but the happiness and joy on his face lingered.
"Husband." Xiao Yu showed a pale smile.
"Hmm. How do you feel physically?" Chen Mo smoothed Xiaoyu's messy bangs and asked softly.
"It's okay, just a little tired."
"Eat something to cushion your stomach first." Returning to the special care room, Xiao Yu's mother took out a thermos box, filled a bowl of sweet millet porridge and handed it to Chen Mo: "Xiao Mo, give it to Xiao Yu."
Then he ran to Aunt Zhen and took the baby into his arms, his face full of joy. Looking at several elders who were beaming with joy, Chen Mo and Xiaoyu looked at each other and smiled.
"Xiaoyu, what's the name of the baby? Have you chosen a name yet?" Aunt Zhen asked.
"My name is Wushuang, which means Shuang, the name given by her father." Xiaoyu said, "My nickname is Little Cuttlefish."
The two agreed before the child was born. The boy is named by his mother, and the girl is named by her father. Wushuang is the name given by Chen Mo.
"Chen Wushuang, Little Cuttlefish, both names are good, not bad." Mother Chen's eyes were full of joy, and her eyes never left the baby from beginning to end: "Little Cuttlefish's nose is straight, exactly like her father's when he was a child."
"This face looks like Xiaoyu's when he was a child. He will definitely be a little beauty when he grows up."
Xiaoyu's mother also chatted, and several elders gathered around the baby and talked to each other, praising the baby to the best of their ability, but not daring to speak loudly for fear of disturbing the baby. Chen Mo and Xiaoyu were also pushed aside.
"Does it still hurt now?" Chen Mo spooned some porridge and brought it to Xiaoyu's mouth.
"Painless delivery, it's not like the life-or-death show on TV. It doesn't feel too painful. I just feel a little tired now," Xiaoyu said.
"Then take a rest after eating the porridge, and take good care of your body during this time."
The next day, when Xiaoyu's body was stable, Chen Mo took her out of the hospital and went home to recuperate. The originally quiet villa was filled with joy because of the happy event, and the whole family gathered around one person.
…
In the study room, Chen looked a little depressed as he looked at the various experimental data that Mo Nu sent back from the laboratory.
He was driven here.
Now my mother, Aunt Zhen, and Xinxin are all at home, and there is a nanny at home, so he has nothing to do and can't help. As a result, Zhao Min also came to visit and snatched the baby to hold, so he was rushed here together.
However, thinking of his daughter sleeping peacefully, the smile on Chen Mo's face still lingered.
Chen Mo also became serious when his eyes fell on the experimental materials sent by Mo Nu.
As early as two days ago, Chen Mo used tissue culture technology to create a hundred groups of artificial seeds and planted them in a ten-square-meter laboratory. As long as one seed successfully germinated and showed corresponding sexual characteristics, it proved that his experiment was successful.
However, Chen Mo was also worried because the experimental conditions were too harsh.
The sand contaminated by acidic substances simulates a desert-like ambient temperature, with a large temperature difference between hot and cold, and a large amount of gases such as sulfur dioxide and carbon monoxide in the air. This is almost the most extreme environment for plants to survive on earth. It is difficult to imagine that any plant can survive in this environment.
But the soil oxygen grass must survive in this environment, and it must also show corresponding sexual characteristics, but there is no movement yet.
Zhao Min entered the study room and saw Chen Mo looking at the screen. He walked to him and sat down: "Congratulations, you have become a father."
"Thank you." Chen Mo smiled. Now that his status has been upgraded, his temperament has become much refined.
"I have good news for you. From today on, I am the godmother of Little Cuttlefish."
"Huh?" Chen Mo was stunned for a moment, then smiled with relief: "It seems like you haven't even been in love yet, so you become a godmother?"
"Get out." Zhao Min rolled his eyes at Chen Mo angrily: "To get down to business, I just came back from the economic forum, and it's very lively outside. In the era of change, dangers and opportunities coexist."
During this period, the global economy fluctuated violently due to the impact of news about controlled nuclear fusion. Emerging technologies are very popular, while traditional energy and other industries are bleak. The two form a very sharp contrast.
Because of the high-profile announcement of the controlled nuclear fusion power station, it can be said that the army ant group has pressed the button, ushering in the global energy revolution.
The current global atmosphere has changed from the quiet and twilight atmosphere of the past and is now unprecedentedly active. Scientific and technological development has become a priority for many first-tier countries, and investment in various scientific and technological research and development projects is unprecedented.
Various international conferences are held around the world to discuss the possible development direction of the future economic situation.
"I guess we need to reshuffle the cards." Chen Mo said.
The change of an era is the end of the old era. The alternation between the old and the new means that some people will rise and some will withdraw from the stage. If they cannot keep up with the pace of change, they will naturally be eliminated. History is always surprisingly similar.
"Then what are your plans next?" Zhao Min asked.
The room fell silent, Zhao Min was waiting for the answer, looking straight at Chen Mo with her beautiful eyes.
Since the last incident, Chen Mo seemed to be thinking about some things, and his personality became more calm and calm. In the past, Chen Mo gave people a confident edge, but now he is more like a hidden sword, with all the sharpness hidden.
The study became quiet, with only the occasional sound coming from outside. After a long time, Chen Mo slowly spoke.
"expansion."
