Huo Shaoheng's voice was extremely magnetic. Gu Nianzhi didn't need to look at his face to be mesmerized by his voice.
She smiled slightly and blushed as she followed Huo Shaoheng to a room on the second floor.
The room was very large, and there was a living room outside. The inside should be a bedroom and study?
Gu Nianzhi only glanced at the furnishings in the room and saw the large bed with white striped sheets in the middle of the room. She couldn't help blushing even more.
Wasn't that the same bed sheet she had bought for Huo Shaoheng at the Special Operations Forces base in C City?
Was this Huo Shaoheng's bedroom?
Gu Nianzhi was too embarrassed to ask.
"Sit." Huo Shaoheng had her sit on the large L-shaped sofa across from the bed. He went out to get a carton of iced milk from the fridge and heated it in the microwave before bringing it over for her to drink.
Gu Nianzhi held the freshly warmed milk and sipped it. She raised a brow at Huo Shaoheng and mumbled, "What is it? Huo Shao? Why are you so cautious? "
Huo Shaoheng closed the bedroom door and sat on the coffee table in front of the sofa. He faced Gu Nianzhi.
Gu Nianzhi became even more nervous. She didn't even want to drink the milk anymore. She said timidly, "Huo Shao, what is it? Don't scare me. You know I'm a coward … "
Her blushing face had now turned snow-white. Her hands trembled slightly as she held the milk.
Huo Shaoheng looked down and removed the milk carton from her hands. He placed it on the coffee table beside him and held her hands that were gradually turning cold to warm them for a while before saying in a low voice, "Nianzhi, I want to ask you for a favor. Are you willing?"
"Yes! Yes! Of course I'm willing! " Gu Nianzhi sighed in relief when she heard it was only a favor. She immediately agreed to Huo Shaoheng's request.
Huo Shaoheng looked up at her. His dark, jade-like eyes were like the abyss. They were extremely attractive to her.
With such a pair of eyes focused on her, she wouldn't hesitate even if there was an abyss in front of her.
"You haven't even heard me say what it is. How can you agree so easily?" Huo Shaoheng raised his hand to wipe the milk foam from the corner of Gu Nianzhi's mouth. "Are you also this warm-hearted when you're outside?"
"Of course not. If it was someone else, I would definitely ask clearly what the matter was and see if it was within my capabilities and if I could do it. But Huo Shao, how could I refuse your request? "Gu Nianzhi winked playfully at Huo Shaoheng." Also, I want to flirt with you. If I don't show my sincerity, how can I seduce you? "
"…"
"Alright, tell me, what is it? I can definitely do it. "Gu Nianzhi confidently held Huo Shaoheng's warm palm.
Huo Shaoheng raised his neat, dashing eyebrows and looked at Gu Nianzhi inquiringly. "How do you know you can do it?"
"Because Huo Shao was the one who suggested it! If I couldn't do it, you wouldn't have mentioned it. "Gu Nianzhi was very confident in Huo Shaoheng, even more than she was in herself.
Huo Shaoheng was speechless for a long time. He squeezed her hand tightly and said in an even deeper voice, "Ok, Nianzhi, it's like this. My mother's illness was caused by a genetic defect in her body and brain caused by an experimental accident. "
Gu Nianzhi, "…"
What was Huo Shao talking about? She didn't seem to understand.
"So my mother's illness wasn't just a psychological insanity, but also a biological genetic retrogression. A part of her brain cells, due to abnormal stimulation from the external magnetic field, began to continuously circulate in reverse, thus limiting her memory and thinking. This was also why she could only remember what had happened before she turned eighteen, but every day after that was a new day for her. This is because the top-secret experiment caused a change in the magnetic field, which caused the organic lesions in her body. So normal psychological treatment will never be effective, and will inevitably require special drug treatment. " Huo Shaoheng said all this in one breath, then stared closely at Gu Nianzhi's face, paying attention to the changes in her expression.
Gu Nianzhi still looked confused, but she nodded. "Is that so? No wonder Bai Jinyi's psychological treatment didn't work for 16 years. "
So it wasn't just a mental illness caused by psychological problems, but also an organic lesion caused by magnetic field stimulation.
"Yes. Eight years ago, I had brought Chen Lie home to treat my mother in secret. Chen Lie confirmed the cause of the illness, and suggested that we must find a drug to repair my mother's damaged brain cells, and stop the reverse growth of that part of the brain cells. But even with his ability, he still couldn't find a drug to treat this genetic defect, even after a long time. " Huo Shaoheng sighed, and looked down at Gu Nianzhi's soft, almost boneless hand, and gently held it in his palm.
Gu Nianzhi thought about it, and said, "This illness sounds like it's in the category of difficult-to-treat." After a pause, she asked again, "But you brought Mrs. Song here today, and even asked Chen Lie and Ye Zitan to prepare for the surgery. Did you find the drug to treat Mrs. Song?"
Huo Shaoheng raised his head with difficulty, and looked into Gu Nianzhi's large, clear eyes. The words tumbled in his heart for a long time, but he couldn't say them.
…
Chen Lie had never been able to find a suitable drug to treat Song Jinning.
Until six years ago, when the special magnetic field had appeared somewhere in C City, Huo Shaoheng had been ordered to protect Bai Jinyi as she entered the magnetic field to obtain data. It was at that time that the car Gu Nianzhi was in suddenly entered the magnetic field, and was attacked by Bai Jinyi's men. It immediately burst into flames …
Gu Nianzhi trespassed on a military ground, and was supposed to die.
She cried and struggled in the fire, her terrified expression reflected in Huo Shaoheng's eyes through the raging flames. He suddenly couldn't bear to see her, and refused to retreat immediately. Instead, he risked his life and rushed in to rescue her from the burning car.
Then the car immediately exploded into nothingness, and not even a speck of smoke was left. It was as if it had been completely annihilated.
Of course, after saving Gu Nianzhi, they realized that although the little girl's origins were unknown, she must have had an extraordinary background. It was obvious from the blueprints in the small backpack she was carrying.
In addition, the rescued Gu Nianzhi only recognized Huo Shaoheng, so the military decided that Huo Shaoheng would be Gu Nianzhi's guardian. He would personally take care of her and work hard to find out the truth about her background. It would be best if he could directly contact the person behind her who had the blueprints.
Later, during the process of treating Gu Nianzhi, Chen Lie secretly told Huo Shaoheng that the natural magnetic field that Gu Nianzhi had entered was exactly the same as the magnetic field that had appeared when the famous physicist Song Haichuan, Huo Shaoheng's grandfather, had failed a top-secret military experiment ten years ago.
And Gu Nianzhi's symptoms were very similar to Song Jinning's.
In other words, the environment and mechanism of Gu Nianzhi's illness were almost exactly the same as Song Jinning's, and the resulting symptoms were also similar.
The only difference was that Gu Nianzhi's body was very special. Her body's cells had a very perfect self-repair function, and the genes that had been damaged under the powerful magnetic field attack were actually slowly repaired by her body.
Although every human body's cells had a certain DNA repair function, this function was magnified countless times in Gu Nianzhi's body.
Therefore, Chen Lie came up with an idea to use the hematopoietic stem cells in Gu Nianzhi's bone marrow and inject them into Song Jinning's body. Using Gu Nianzhi's special constitution, would it help Song Jinning's genes repair?
Of course, this was only Chen Lie's idea, and he still needed to verify it with more data.
Although Gu Nianzhi's own recovery ability was very strong, after she recovered, she had lost all her memories before the age of 12. Chen Lie didn't know if it was a side effect caused by the magnetic field.
Regarding this, Chen Lie indicated that he would continue to observe.
Although Gu Nianzhi didn't have memories before the age of 12, she could live like a normal person.
To Huo Shaoheng, it was enough if Song Jinning could live like a normal person.
Even if she lost her memories of the past, Huo Shaoheng didn't care.
In a sense, Gu Nianzhi was Huo Shaoheng's last hope.
Her successful recovery proved that her blood cells had this ability. However, she was young at the time, and her health was unstable. She was very emotional, and she had lost a lot of her memories. They didn't know if it was good or bad, so they didn't dare to use the hematopoietic stem cells in her bone marrow to treat Song Jinning.
After six years of observation, Chen Lie thought that when Gu Nianzhi became an adult, it would be time to give it a try.
Huo Shaoheng had brought her home this time to kill two birds with one stone. He wanted his family to accept her, and he wanted her to get to know his mother. That way, after the New Year, he would persuade Gu Nianzhi to help treat his mother.
In the end, what happened after he returned home was a few days faster than he had expected.
…
Huo Shaoheng held Gu Nianzhi's hand, and his emotions became even more complicated.
Gu Nianzhi saw that Huo Shaoheng didn't speak for a long time, and felt a little strange, but she didn't rush him. She only waited patiently.
Huo Shaoheng was silent for a long time, and finally looked up at Gu Nianzhi. He finally said, "… Yes, we found the medicine that can treat my mother. It's you. "
Gu Nianzhi was surprised for a moment, and then quickly smiled from the bottom of her heart. "Really? I can really treat Mrs. Song? Tell me! How can I help her?! "
Huo Shaoheng froze, and instinctively asked, "You're really willing? Really willing to treat my mother's illness? "
"Of course." Gu Nianzhi didn't hesitate to pull her hand out of his, and leaned forward to pat his shoulder. "No problem, just do it. Where do you want it? Her leg or her arm? "
"Of course not." Huo Shaoheng laughed. "Chen Lie said that the hematopoietic stem cells in your bone marrow should be enough. We'll do the surgery as soon as he gets here. "
Gu Nianzhi sighed, and smiled. "That's a big deal. I thought it was for your mother. "
"At the same time." Huo Shaoheng looked at his watch. "Chen Lie said that it's best if we do it at the same time."
"Then … we'll give her anesthetics?" Gu Nianzhi thought about it, and asked quietly, "Will it hurt?"
"Of course." Huo Shaoheng patted her head. "You'll be fine once you wake up."
Gu Nianzhi was very confident in Chen Lie's medical skills, and completely trusted Huo Shaoheng's character.
Also, she really liked Song Jinning, and sincerely hoped that she could recover from now on, and never forget her own son again …
"Sigh …" Gu Nianzhi sighed again when she thought of Song Jinning.
"What's wrong?" Huo Shaoheng stood up. "Why are you sighing? If you don't want to … "
"It's not that I don't want to. I'm just thinking about your mother. " Gu Nianzhi rested her chin on one hand, and said thoughtfully, "If she gets better, I don't know if she'll be able to take it when she remembers what happened all these years."
"My mother is a tenacious woman, she'll be able to take it." Huo Shaoheng pulled Gu Nianzhi to her feet. "Chen Lie should be here soon. Let's wait for him outside."
