Chapter 4341: The Other Side 310
Could it be… His sense of aesthetics was not as good as that of the people of previous generations?
The actor’s confidence was instantly shaken!
Knock, knock, knock…
As Hua Jin brooded over this, a knock on the door was heard. He turned around. It was Alice standing at the doorway.
The door wasn’t shut, but she didn’t come in. Instead, she stood in the doorway and said to him, “Is it okay to take Natalia?”
As soon as she heard that she was to be taken away, Natalia shrank behind the actor in fear, clutching the hem of his shirt.
“No…” She didn’t want to go with Alice! She hung on to Hua Jin as if he was her life-saving straw!
The actor glanced at Natalia and gently gripped her shoulders. Ruffling her hair, he turned to Alice and said, “What’s up?”
“I’d like to examine Natalia.”
“Examine?” Hua Jin couldn’t help feeling distressed. “We spent ten hours on the plane and a long time being screened. The child herself is exhausted. She hasn’t adjusted to the environment and you’re taking her away. Don’t you think…”
Alice folded her arms across her chest at that. “Why else do you think we came back on a ten-hour flight? We’re not about to do anything complicated, either. It’s just to take some vitals. We’ll have her back in a minute!”
There was nothing the actor could say to that, so he knelt down and coaxed Natalia. “Go with Aunt Alice, will you? I’ll wait here, okay?”
“Where’s she taking me?”
“Er… to do some basic examination.”
“…”
He had expected Natalia to be reluctant, perhaps to burst into tears, but she did not. Looking depressed, the girl let go of his sleeve, dropped her hands to her side and gave a small nod.
“Yeah… okay!” She walked over obediently to Alice. Although she was reluctant, she said nothing.
“Good girl, Natalia. I’ll drive you back later, okay?”
“Uh huh…”
It wasn’t until Alice had taken Natalia away that Hua Jin breathed a sigh of relief. But because he wasn’t familiar with the place, he stayed in his room, too nervous to go anywhere.
After the long plane ride, he was so exhausted that as soon as he sat down on the sofa, he immediately fell asleep.
…
Natalia and Gong Fan were taken to the laboratory.
Alice first introduced the two children to the doctor in the laboratory.
“This is Gong Fan and this is Natalia. I’ve mentioned their situation to you before. For a long time, our mission will be heavy-going. However, failure is not allowed. Do you hear me?”
Everyone froze, dumbfounded.
Failure is not allowed?
In the medical center, how many experiments were conducted every day? Alice’s requirements had never been so demanding.
Failure not allowed?
How would that be possible?!
It is only after countless failures and gaining experience that success is attained.
Natalia inched closer to Gong Fan with some trepidation. People in white coats stood in a semi-circle before her. This made her feel as if she was back where she had been previously!
She vaguely recalled the pungent smell of disinfectant in the hospital, the cold faces, and the white coats that were always flapping by.
Instantly, she felt an inexplicable wave of disgust. She didn’t like this feeling.
