Chapter 46: Chapter 46 Gratitude

Lin Xian was already eager to welcome the “new dream expansion.”

He had been playing this dream repeatedly for over twenty years… Although he was far from having fully explored it, in terms of excitement and novelty, he had grown somewhat tired of it.

Now that he had confirmed the dream was the real future world 600 years later,

there was no need to ponder so much about CC and the safe anymore.

To him, CC was a complete stranger, living in an era 600 years apart from his own. As for the familiar-sounding voice, it might just be a coincidence.

And about the bank vault’s safe…

“No wonder I could never guess the password.”

Lin Xian scratched his head:

“It’s very likely that it wasn’t my safe at all, I’d be shocked if I could guess the password.”

The name Lin Xian wasn’t rare; it wasn’t uncommon for people to share the same name.

Who knows which era’s Lin Xian was the owner of that safe…

He closed the web page.

He opened the library’s book management system.

He searched for Academician Gao Wen’s publications.

Hibernation Technology Overview,

Prospect and Technical Challenges of Hibernation Pods,

Detailed Explanation of Hibernation Pod Filling Liquid,

Outlook on Hibernation Technology By-products.

There were four books in total.

Clearly, the third book was Lin Xian’s target.

The note included the location of the book, also on the third floor in section C, but on different shelves.

After Lin Xian wrote down the specific location, he once again took the elevator to the third floor and quickly found Academician Gao Wen’s publication:

Detailed Explanation of Hibernation Pod Filling Liquid.

He found an empty table and sat down to read.

The research approach of Academician Gao Wen and Dr. Mikerson was largely similar; perhaps it was the only solution to the Hibernation Pod Filling Liquid, and Lin Xian quickly locked onto the position of that key chain reaction chemical formula.

“Indeed, I copied it down wrong, mixed it up with other chemical formulas.”

Once the focus was found, it became easy to find and fix the omissions.

…

Lin Xian took two days to ensure all the copying mistakes were corrected, and also filled in some important chemical formulas that he had previously missed.

“Phew…”

Lin Xian wrote down the last character at his bedroom desk.

He let out a long breath and leaned back in his chair:

“All done.”@@novelbin@@

He picked up the three pages of new manuscript on the desk, sure that there would be no mistakes this time.

He lit up the screen of his phone to check the time.

It was already past 4 a.m.

“Today is Monday, and there’s a morning meeting to attend… is there any point in sleeping now?”

Lin Xian hesitated.

Being late to the morning meeting at MX Company was absolutely not allowed, and he was concerned about failing to wake up on time.

He opened WeChat.

These past few days, Professor Xu Yun had been initiating conversations with him daily, mostly polite inquiries and indirect questions about Lin Xian’s progress.

Lin Xian could feel it, Professor Xu Yun was truly in a hurry, extremely so!

Every day, he would remind Lin Xian:

“As soon as you have the latest manuscript, contact me directly! Anytime, anywhere!”

Lin Xian glanced at the time again.

He felt contacting Xu Yun at 4 a.m. might not be appropriate, right?

But he guessed the other party might not feel the same…

“Let’s just try.”

Lin Xian sent a message to Xu Yun: Teacher Xu, are you asleep?

The next second.

Ring-a-ling ring-a-ling ring-a-ling ring-a-ling ring-a-ling——

The phone immediately started ringing.

Okay then.

“`

It was indeed what I had expected.

On the other end of the phone, Xu Yun was extremely excited, asking immediately if there was a new manuscript.

Xu Yun said he was in the laboratory conducting research, and these past few days, his mind had been so preoccupied with the chemical formulas in the manuscript that he couldn’t sleep well. He mentioned if Lin Xian was available, he would like to come and collect the manuscript right away.

“I should bring it to you, Teacher Xu, you haven’t rested well these days, and driving isn’t safe,” Lin Xian offered.

“Besides, after I deliver the manuscript to you and have breakfast, I can go straight to the company’s morning meeting without any delay.”

Having said that,

Lin Xian got dressed, picked up the manuscript, and took a taxi to East Sea University.

…

The sky was just beginning to lighten.

Many laborers had already started their work.

The road to the university town had few cars, and the taxi promptly arrived at the entrance of East Sea University. Lin Xian got out and went straight to Professor Xu Yun’s laboratory to hand over the manuscript.

“Hmm…”

Professor Xu Yun picked up the manuscript and sat down to study it, expressing his admiration as he went through it:

“It can’t be wrong, this time it is definitely correct!”

His hands rubbed together in excitement:

“Lin Xian, I have been studying the manuscript you previously gave me these few days. Although the experimental steps are definitely stuck, the theoretical part is perfect.”

“Just now I checked the manuscript you brought, and based on my experience… the chemical reaction formulas on it should also be absolutely correct.”

“I believe, I can soon get the Hibernation Pod Filling Liquid figured out.”

Lin Xian smiled faintly, genuinely happy for Professor Xu Yun:

“Congratulations, Teacher Xu, your many years of wish is finally being realized.”

“According to your vision, the emergence and disclosure of the Hibernation Pod Filling Liquid will definitely spark the world’s research on hibernation technology, and I believe it won’t be long before the Hibernation Pod can be successfully developed.”

“By then… Xu Yiyi will be able to take the Hibernation Pod to the future for treatment. I believe that in a few decades or centuries, human medical technology will definitely be able to cure comatose patients.”

When it came to his daughter,

hope ignited in Xu Yun’s eyes as well.

He grabbed Lin Xian’s hand in a torrent of gratitude, saying that all this was thanks to Lin Xian, and that he had to properly thank Lin Xian.

“Then I won’t disturb you anymore, Teacher Xu.”

Lin Xian put on his coat, turned, and prepared to leave:

“I’m going to have some breakfast and then head back to the company for the morning meeting. If there are any issues with the manuscript, you can contact me.”

“Lin Xian, wait a moment.”

Xu Yun called out to him.

Then, from the cluttered desk, he took out a thick file folder and handed it to Lin Xian:

“This is for you, consider it a modest token of gratitude.”

Lin Xian accepted it.

It felt heavy, as if filled with various materials.

“What is this?” Lin Xian asked, puzzled.

Xu Yun smiled mysteriously and kindly:

“Open it and see.”

“I think… you will find it useful.”

Useful for me?

What could it be?

Lin Xian, curious, unwound the string around the file folder and began to pull out the materials inside.

At the top was a handwritten “Exclusive Authorization Document”.

It read:

[Hereby grants Mr. Lin Xian… exclusive… gratuitous…] and at the end was Professor Xu Yun’s personal signature.

“Is this…”

Lin Xian realized.

[This is the exclusive authorization document for that miraculous chemical substance that countless beauty companies around the world dream of!]

Although it wasn’t an official authorization document, a handwritten one still carried legal validity.

What surprised Lin Xian even more was—

the Exclusive Authorization Document wasn’t addressed to MX Company or Zhao Yingjun… but to himself.

Professor Xu Yun had actually given him the exclusive rights to this chemical!

“Teacher Xu… What is this?”
