Ye Xingbei had always believed that there are many people in this world who are born smarter than others, also known as geniuses.
For example, Zhuge Liang. He was not only a military strategist, a political scientist, and a writer but also an inventor.
Historically, talents like Zhuge Liang, while not overly abundant, have continuously erged over the generations.
Therefore, she firmly believed that there are indeed people who are born geniuses.
Like Yun Jue.
After Yun Jue joined the Gu Family, Ye Xingbei specifically looked into his background. The awards Yun Jue had won and the papers he had published were so nurous they left her dumbfounded.
He is a genius highly sought after in the field of biology.
When he graduated, more than a dozen biological institutes abroad offered him a huge annual salary to invite him to join them.
Due to her experiences in childhood, Ye Xingbei had attended school intermittently, and she herself hadn’t graduated from any prestigious university.
She admired what she lacked, and she always admired people like Yun Jue.
Every ti she walked into Yun Jue’s laboratory, it felt like stepping into outer space, and she was extra cautious, fearing she might damage sothing in the lab.
Gu Junzhu found her cautious appearance funny, put his arm around her shoulder, and said, "Don’t be so nervous. Although so of his lab equipnt is indeed a bit expensive, with your capability, you can afford it."
"No," Ye Xingbei explained, "I’m afraid of disturbing Ah Jue’s work. I heard that many scientists’ labs don’t allow outsiders in because even a slight error could cause the entire experint to fail."
"He’s like that too," Gu Junzhu said, "Rest assured, if it were an exceptionally important experint, he wouldn’t allow anyone in, regardless of relation. Since the door isn’t locked, it ans we can enter."
As they were talking, Yun Jue shook the test tube in his hand, and after observing for a mont, he looked up at them, "Uncle, Aunt, the results are out."
Ye Xingbei imdiately grew tense, instinctively taking a few steps forward, watching him intently.
Yun Jue said, "There’s nothing wrong with Xiao Shumiao’s chocolate. However, Xiao Yue’s chocolate contains a colorless, odorless, tasteless trace elent called T. This trace elent, when consud in excess, can lead to cerebellar atrophy and intelligence decline, reducing IQ to the level of a four or five-year-old child, with the person unable to handle basic daily activities." (Note: Such a substance indeed exists, but for harmony, Yunyun used a letter to replace it.)
Although she was ntally prepared, hearing this result, Ye Xingbei still turned pale with horror, and a chill crept into her heart.
"Then how much is considered excessive consumption?" Ye Xingbei asked nervously, "Yesterday we took Xiao Yue for a full body check-up, and all results were normal. Does this an Xiao Yue hasn’t consud an excessive amount? ... Oh right, not entirely. There were a few tests requiring fasting that weren’t done, but the hospital doctor said they weren’t important tests. It’s okay if we don’t do them!"
Initially, she and Gu Junzhu intended to take Lingyue to the hospital today for the tests requiring fasting. However, Gu Junzhu said that since the vice dean ntioned those fasting tests were inconsequential, there wouldn’t be much point in bringing the child for those. Clarifying whether the chocolate is toxic is currently the most important matter.
So, essentially Lingyue’s full body examination wasn’t complete and lacked a few tests.
"Aunt, please don’t worry," Yun Jue said, "I heard from Uncle that Xiao Yue only ate this chocolate for three days."
