Chapter 2918

"Is Brother Tianyun here to eat roast duck too?" Yan Xiwan asked.

Ouyang Tianyun pointed to a car parked at the entrance. "I’m here to pick up the roast duck. We ordered five yesterday, so I came to get them."

"Five? That’s a lot," Yan Xiwan said in admiration.

"Not really. There are over ten people eating. It’s barely enough for everyone. If we didn’t have to worry about other things, we would have bought ten or twenty," Ouyang Tianyun said with a helpless look. Then he added, "Since Guai Guai transferred to the capital, Brother Tianyun will take you out to play when I have time."

"Brother Ouyang, will you really have time?" Cheng Jianguang said. This wasn’t doubt; it was certainty.

As one of the most outstanding researchers, Ouyang Tianyun had almost no free time.

Ouyang Tianyun looked at Cheng Jianguang and said slowly, "There will always be time. As they say, time is like squeezing milk. If you squeeze, you get some."

"So that saying applies here too," Cheng Jianguang said.

Ouyang Tianyun smiled slightly. "Alright, you guys keep eating. I need to leave now, or the duck will get cold and taste bad. In a couple of days, when I’m off work, I’ll treat Guai Guai and you all to local capital specialties."

"Okay," Yan Xiwan nodded seriously. After all, everyone lived in the same area. They saw each other often, so building good relationships was important.

Most importantly, Yan Xiwan thought Ouyang Tianyun was a good person.

She didn’t know why, but she felt something familiar about her. She couldn’t figure out what it was right away.

Ouyang Tianyun took the roast duck, said goodbye to Yan Xiwan and the others, and left.

"Is this Brother Ouyang very capable?" Yan Zhishan asked. It was his first time meeting Ouyang Tianyun.

"Yes," Yan Zhicheng said. "Many of our things were researched by Ouyang Tianyun. He is the top researcher in our institute."

"One of the top?" Yan Xiwan interjected.

"One of the top is what we tell outsiders. But internally, we all know he is the absolute top. No one else," Yan Zhicheng said with a smile. "However, he is very low-key. Research is his interest. He doesn’t like many people knowing his fame. Of course, his achievements are still there."

"I think he is very smart to do that," Yan Xiwan said seriously.

"Indeed, very smart," Yan Zhicheng agreed with a smile. "So Guai Guai should learn from him."

She then asked, "Guai Guai, do you want to be a doctor in the future?"

"My goal is to be a doctor. But traditional Chinese medicine is hard to practice now. So, before people recognize it, I will study pharmaceuticals. Drug research is also very important," Yan Xiwan said. She had her own plans.

"I believe Guai Guai will definitely succeed," Yan Zhishan said. He trusted his sister’s ability.

Not only Yan Zhishan, but Yan Zhicheng and Cheng Jianguang also believed this.

After eating the roast duck, they went shopping. It was more about Yan Zhicheng buying daily necessities for his younger siblings. Although the Cheng family had prepared things, they still needed some happy, casual clothes. Yan Zhicheng was the best person to handle this.

At four in the afternoon, Yan Zhicheng sent them back to the Cheng house and then returned to the institute.

When Yan Xiwan and Yan Zhishan arrived at the Cheng house, they found Cheng Junnan had returned.

Cheng Junnan had taken the film Yan Xiwan gave him yesterday and hadn’t appeared until now. He looked very excited.

Seeing Yan Xiwan and the others, he smiled. "Guai Guai, get ready quickly. I’ll take you to meet someone."

"Huh?" Yan Xiwan blinked, looking confused. "Meet who?"

"You’ll know when we get there." Cheng Junnan pulled Yan Xiwan along. They hadn’t even sat down yet, so they had to follow him.

Cheng Junnan took Yan Xiwan to meet the president of the institute.

The president looked at Yan Xiwan with satisfaction. "Little girl, you are brave and smart. That is rare."

Yan Xiwan was completely confused. "Godfather, what is going on?"

"Guai Guai, do you know what that hidden film was?" Cheng Junnan asked.

"I don’t know," Yan Xiwan shook her head. "Actually, it doesn’t matter if I know or not. I can see from your expression that it is useful to you. As long as it is useful, that is a good thing."

"It contains very important research data. Our soldiers brought it back from abroad with great difficulty. But many people were chasing them, so he had to hide it with you," Cheng Junnan explained.

"But there were many soldiers on the train," Yan Xiwan said, puzzled. What kind of operation was this?

"There were many people, but there was a traitor among them. To be safe, that soldier put the item in your luggage. He knew this train was going to the capital and planned to find you later. But because of the traitor’s betrayal, he was injured and couldn’t tell us. I didn’t expect you to give it to me," Cheng Junnan said simply.

The situation was simple. This research data was crucial for their current project. They were missing this key piece of information, which had been obtained by undercover agents abroad.

It was fine when it entered the country, but unexpectedly, a traitor appeared domestically. The small team transporting the data had to take the train, using the excuse of checking for dangerous goods to avoid their pursuers.

One soldier, to protect the data, placed it in Yan Xiwan’s luggage at a critical moment.

Since Yan Xiwan and her brother were just two young children, no one paid attention to them.

They originally planned to contact people in the capital after getting off the train. But unexpectedly, they were ambushed. Because of this, the film was delayed.

If Yan Xiwan hadn’t given it to Cheng Junnan, they wouldn’t have known what to do next.

Of course, there were many complex details here, which had nothing to do with Yan Xiwan. But she had definitely merited credit.

Although Cheng Junnan’s explanation was simple, Yan Xiwan understood that the film was very important to the institute. She smiled. "As long as it is useful, you can use it. Why did you bring me here?"

"Because I wanted to meet this little hero," the president said.

Yan Xiwan giggled. "President Grandpa, I’m not a hero. I just did something by chance."

"Good child. It was chance for you, but it brought us a surprise," the president said seriously. "It is your merit. No one can take it away."

Yan Xiwan looked shy. "Actually, I don’t need any merit. How about you just give me a roast duck?"

"Haha, you child," the president laughed loudly.

"Guai Guai, didn’t you just eat roast duck at noon?" Cheng Jianguang said from the side.

"Roast duck is so delicious. Eating it a few more times is fine," Yan Xiwan said directly.

The president was amused. "Is that all your ambition?"

"People are called 'mouth people,' meaning people live for their mouths. So eating roast duck is very important," Yan Xiwan said seriously, nonsense included.

"Okay, I promise. I will reward you with two roast ducks every month for five years. If you want to eat, ask your godfather to get them," the president said. The request was too simple.

"No need for every month. Occasionally is fine," Yan Xiwan said. She wasn’t someone who didn’t know limits.

"Your contribution deserves more than just roast ducks," the president said. "Of course, besides the duck, I will have someone record your merit in your file. This file can only be seen when reviewing records. Others won’t know. It is quite low-key. Do you have any objections?"

"No objections," Yan Xiwan said directly. "I never expected any merit. Now that President Grandpa records it in my file, that is the biggest reward."

The president liked Yan Xiwan very much. She knew when to advance and retreat, and she was not arrogant.

She understood why the Cheng family liked this godchild so much.

Although Yan Xiwan was young, she was very clear-headed. Who wouldn’t like such a clear-headed child?

The president looked at Yan Xiwan gently. "Your nickname is Guai Guai. Can I call you Guai Guai too?"

"Okay. Although I think I should protest and ask everyone to call me by my full name, thinking about it, calling me Guai Guai is fine," Yan Xiwan sighed. Her nickname was actually nice and unique.

The president smiled. "What does Guai Guai plan to do in the future?"

"A doctor," Yan Xiwan said seriously.

"President, Guai Guai is Uncle Yuan’s last disciple," Cheng Junnan said from the side.

"Uncle Yuan’s disciple?" The president’s eyes lit up again. "Uncle Yuan’s medical skills are famous. It seems Guai Guai will definitely be a divine doctor in the future."

"Whether I become a divine doctor or not doesn’t matter. I just hope to reduce patients’ pain in the future and make them live happier," Yan Xiwan said seriously. "I hope no one gets sick."

This seemingly ordinary wish was actually very hard to achieve. It was impossible for any place to have no patients. But undeniably, Yan Xiwan’s idea was the most simple and pure.

"Then you must work hard," the president said with a smile. "Become a good doctor who can truly reduce patients’ pain in the future."

"Yes," Yan Xiwan nodded seriously. "I will work hard."

Yan Xiwan calculated the time. When the college entrance examination resumed, she would be among the first or second batch of candidates. She planned to take the exam for the Capital Medical University.

Of course, she wouldn’t say this now.

Yan Xiwan had already learned from the historical traces left by her parents that this era would soon pass. A true era of peace would come quickly. That would be the time when talent was truly lacking.
