"Your father really loved you. Of course, he probably loved your mother too," Reinitz said slowly. "Do you really not remember anything about your childhood?"
Gu Nianzhi was getting impatient. "I don't remember anything. If I remembered, would I have been tricked by you to come here? "
Reinitz was speechless.
Okay, that sounded reasonable.
"I carefully studied your father's maternity diary, and there was nothing wrong with it. You were a very normal and healthy fetus. "
This was something Reinitz had never understood.
There was nothing special about her, so why was she different from other people?
He looked at Gu Nianzhi in confusion, as if he wanted to see a trace of something "different" on her face.
Gu Nianzhi couldn't deny that she was relieved.
This question had been in her heart for a long time, and it was like the sword of Damocles hanging over her head.
Now that she heard Reinitz say that her pregnancy was really no different from other children, she felt the urge to cry again.
She didn't want to be "different."
She was just a normal person, and as for her constitution …
Gu Nianzhi shrugged. "Isn't it good to be normal and healthy? Why do you sound so disappointed? "
Reinitz shook his head slightly. "I wasn't disappointed at the time, but I'm very confused now."
Gu Nianzhi asked, "… Confused about what?"
Reinitz's hand rested on Gu Nianzhi's perfectly shaped chin again, and he gently lifted it up with his fingers.
Gu Nianzhi was forced to look up at Reinitz, who was a head taller than her.
"You should be normal like other children, and because of your family's genetic defect, your innate constitution shouldn't be very good." Reinitz was very insistent on the word "should."
He looked Gu Nianzhi up and down. How did she look like she wasn't born with any innate constitution?!
Gu Tian's situation was normal!
Gu Nianzhi was so healthy, how did she look like she had a genetic defect?
Gu Nianzhi was nervous again. "Then why did you mention my mother? What about her? She … What kind of person was she? "
This was the first time she had asked a question about her mother.
Moreover, she had never thought that she would be able to get these questions from Reinitz about her past.
She had always thought that only Professor He knew about her past, but he obviously didn't want to talk about it and always changed the topic. So after she tested him, she didn't ask again.
Reinitz, on the other hand, was different.
From Gu Nianzhi's perspective, Reinitz obviously had a motive, and this motive was closely related to her father.
For this, he did not hesitate to pay any price and weaved an inescapable net to gain her trust.
As the saying goes, you can only be used if you have a request.
Gu Nianzhi was also using Reinitz's mentality to lure him into saying so much.
Although he was also stuttering, the information he revealed was shocking enough.
"Your mother … was a very smart person. She was also very beautiful and healthy. There's nothing wrong with her. " Reinitz raised his wrist out of habit and looked at the time. "Also, your father mentioned at the beginning of the pregnancy diary that the Gu family has a genetic disease caused by a genetic deficiency. Moreover, this missing gene is on the male X chromosome, and it is only passed on through the father to the daughter. "
"Normally speaking, this kind of congenital genetic deficiency should be visible in males and recessive in females."
"But the situation in the Gu family is very strange. Your father specifically mentioned that this genetic disease is recessive in males, but it is visible in females."
"Because of this, your mother was also selected by him in hopes that there wouldn't be any problems. The result was regrettable. You and your aunt both have this congenital genetic deficiency. "
Gu Nianzhi looked up at Reinitz and wasn't very surprised.
She had already known about this when she and Gu Yanran were fighting over the inheritance. Chen Lie had deduced this from Gu Nianzhi's aunt, who was also her father's only biological sister, Gu Tian's medical records.
At the time, Gu Nianzhi had been a bit worried that if she gave birth to a child, it would cause the same genetic disease as her aunt, Gu Tian …
"Indeed, you already know all this." Reinitz also nodded. "I've also seen the court records of you and your sister, Gu Yanran. It was very exciting. You were able to guess the truth of the matter completely based on deduction. "
Gu Nianzhi was speechless.
"But there's another problem that you should have thought about, right?" Reinitz changed the topic. "The source of your hereditary illness isn't too long ago, because it started in your aunt's generation. In other words, it was passed down from your grandfather. "
Gu Nianzhi said, "… Grandfather?"
Well, if the word "mother" occupied a very small place in Gu Nianzhi's memory, then the word "grandfather" occupied no place in her memory at all.
Reinitz hesitated when he mentioned Gu Nianzhi's "grandfather."
This information had never been mentioned in any of Gu Xiangwen's manuscripts or letters.
However, Reinitz only knew about Gu Nianzhi's grandfather because his boss and godfather, Li Dexi, had provided him with clues.
Reinitz had a vague guess as to how Li Dexi knew, but he didn't dare to verify it, nor could he verify it.
Should he say something that couldn't be verified, or not?
Reinitz's mind quickly weighed the pros and cons, and he finally hinted, "I'm not very clear about the specific cause of your grandfather's problem. But what I can be sure of is that there's something wrong with his genes, which caused you and your aunt to have genetic defects. "
However, Gu Nianzhi's situation was different from Gu Tian's.
After that time in the Alps, Li Dexi observed Gu Nianzhi and found that she was almost perfect and didn't have the genetic defects that the genetic disease showed.
Therefore, not only did Reinitz think so, but even Li Dexi believed that Gu Xiangwen had already overcome the problem of "genetic defects" and successfully cured his daughter.
Also, his treatment wasn't like Gu Tian's attempt to "treat the symptoms" by exchanging Gu Jing's bone marrow for blood. Instead, it was truly a treatment at the genetic level.
For the human body, this method was truly "treating the root cause" and was the "divine skill" that countless scientists dreamed of.
…
Gu Nianzhi thought about the cause of her aunt Gu Tian's death and her own abnormal physique, and she also had a guess.
She glanced at Reinitz.
Reinitz was also looking at her.
There was undisguised amazement in his eyes, but there was also a hint of indescribable emotion. It was too complicated and deep for her to understand.
Gu Nianzhi calmly looked away and looked at the arched door of the Taj Mahal hall. She calmly said, "… Is it because you think my father cured my illness, so you're relentlessly pursuing me? You want to take me back to be a lab rat for you to experiment on? "
Naturally, Gu Nianzhi thought of Huo Shaoheng again.
He was probably the first person to know about her special physique, but he had always carefully protected this secret and absolutely wouldn't allow anyone to use her as a lab rat.
At that moment, Gu Nianzhi was extremely grateful that she had met Huo Shaoheng when she was 12 years old and not someone else.
