“You’re always bragging.” Lu Yanyan pursed her lips into a smile. In her heart, she felt that her understanding of Chen Jing in the past was too shallow.

How many more surprises would this fellow bring to others?

When they arrived at Chen’s Restaurant, business was pretty good this afternoon. There were quite a few tables of customers.

“Don’t stand on ceremony. Just find a random place to sit. Feel free to say whatever you want to eat.”

“Why don’t you help me decide?”

“Can you eat spicy food?”

“Of course I can.”

“Alright, then I’ll make the arrangements.”

As Chen Jing spoke, he ran into the kitchen and said a few words to Xu Yanlan.

When Xu Yanlan heard that he had brought a classmate, and it was a female classmate, she was pleasantly surprised. She even specially came out to greet Lu Yanyan.

This made Lu Yanyan extremely nervous.

Following that, Xu Yanlan pulled Chen Jing into the kitchen and asked him with a smile, “Is she your girlfriend?”

“Mom, what are you thinking about? She’s just a classmate. She’s the study commissary of our class. She’s the one who keeps reporting me. I brought her back for dinner today because I wanted to use a meal to gag her so that she won’t report me in the future,” Chen Jing said.

“Oh, is that so?” Xu Yalan dragged out her words with a smile.

Chen Jing felt uncomfortable being looked at by her. “I’m serious. She really isn’t my girlfriend. Oh right, where’s Dad? Why isn’t he at home again?” He quickly changed the topic.

“En, we’re discussing compensation today. What our family spent and what we lost will all be returned to us today, so he left early in the morning.”

“That’s good.” From the looks of it, this matter was almost settled.

After that, Chen Jing greeted Lu Yanyan outside.

It seemed that Lu Yanyan had never been to a place like this before. It felt both fresh and made her nervous at the same time.

Moreover, the more enthusiastic Xu Yanyan was, the more nervous she became.

“Your mother’s cooking skills are very good,” she suddenly said. She also used her words to ease her nervousness.

“You’ve never been here before. How do you know?” Chen Jingwu drank his tea and then laughed strangely. “Actually, to tell you the truth, my mother’s cooking is terrible. You should prepare yourself mentally first.”

Lu Yanyan couldn’t help but roll her eyes at him. “Who talks about their own mother like that? And you must be spouting nonsense. I see that the other guests are eating very happily.”

Chen Jing raised his eyebrows and then shouted to the kitchen, “Mom, Lu Yanyan said she wants to eat perverted spicy food. Add more chili for her.”

“Okay,” Xu Yanyan’s warm reply came from the kitchen.

Lu Yanyan: “…”

After shouting, Chen Jing grinned at Lu Yanyan. He was as radiant as Grandpa Sun.

Lu Yanyan was thin-skinned. She was too embarrassed to tell Xu Yanyan that Chen Jing was spouting nonsense.

She could only glare at him.

At that moment, two more people came into the shop. It was a man and a woman.

The woman was also wearing a nurse’s uniform. She was also an acquaintance. She was a nurse from the nearby Chinese medical hospital. Her name was Joey.

She was 21 years old and was 167 centimeters tall. She was also a very beautiful girl.

The man beside her was about 35 years old. He was dressed in a suit and was carrying a suitcase.

As soon as he stepped in, the man’s face showed a look of disdain.

He could not help but advise her, “Joey, let’s go somewhere else. This kind of street-side store doesn’t look special. How about going to Baihui Restaurant?”

“I like to eat here.” Joey had a straight face and ignored him.

Then, she saw Chen Jing. That straight face finally showed a smile, “Tsk tsk, Chen Jing, did you bring your girlfriend back?”

When Chen Jing saw her, he quickly shook his head and denied, “No, this is my distant cousin. She just came from the countryside.”

Lu Yanyan: “…”

She glared at Chen Jing angrily. Her eyes seemed to say, ‘You just came from the countryside!’

Chen Jing laughed and whispered into her ear to explain, “She’s a regular customer of my family. She always likes to make fun of me. If I were to say that you’re my classmate, she might start gossiping.”

Lu Yanyan harrumphed. Only then did she decide not to argue with him.

“Little Chen Jing, I’ll share a table with you guys.” Joey moved a chair over and sat down.

“Sure.” Of course, Chen Jing could not refuse.

Joey had just sat down. That man had no choice but to follow suit and sit down as well.

But Joey still treated him like air. She poured herself a cup of tea and joked as she drank, “Little Chen Jing, so you have such a beautiful cousin? No wonder you always refuse when I want to introduce you to a nurse.”

“…” Chen Jing.

As she spoke, she called out to Xu Yanlan and ordered a portion of beef brisket noodles. This was her favorite.

“Sister Joey, is this person by your side your uncle?” Chen Jing suddenly struck first to gain the upper hand and started to joke with her.

When Joey heard this, she chuckled and nodded. “Yes.”

But the man was anxious. He said angrily to Chen Jing, “What kind of look is that? I’m Joey’s friend.”

Following that, he also ignored Chen Jing and Lu Yanyan. He only said to Joey with a serious expression, “Joey, I’m serious. Follow me to the capital. Only there will there be better development and a better environment. You really won’t be able to achieve anything in a small place like Mingyang City.”

“I just like small places like this. No matter how good the capital is, I don’t want to go,” Joey said.

“But, don’t you love medicine very much? Then you should go to a better place. Receive more in-depth training and richer experience, and going to the capital is the best choice,” the man persuaded.

Joey was unmoved and didn’t respond.

When the man saw her like this, he hesitated again and again. He felt that he could only take out some ‘dry goods’ to move her.

So, he said, “To tell you the truth, Joey, I will soon be able to launch an epoch-making ultimate medical technology. Now that the research of this technology is about to be completed, if you go with me, when this technology becomes famous, you will definitely have a share of glory.”

Joey frowned and said, “I don’t care. Besides, you always talk about the ultimate technology. Even my father was fooled by you. What exactly is the ultimate technology?”

The man didn’t want to say this easily, but he also wanted to prove himself in front of Joey. After thinking for a while, he took out a drawing.

“My ultimate technology is the [Gene Transfer Technology]!”

“You might not know the name. The Gene Transfer Technology is not cloning technology, nor is it genetic modification technology. It is a gene transfer technology that I created.”

When he mentioned his own specialty, the man’s tone became more energetic.

He seemed to be giving pointers. “Gene Transfer Technology, to put it bluntly, is for someone who has lost a hand or a foot. Do you know how many disabled people there are in the whole country and the whole world?”

“When people become disabled, their mental state will also become disabled. No disabled person will be truly happy. They also want to have a complete body.”

“With my technology, I can fulfill their dreams, change their situation, get rid of their shackles, and let them become complete again.”

“The Gene Transfer Technology is like a gecko regrowing its tail. It allows a person who has lost an arm or leg to grow new limbs..”
