Capítulo 590: Chapter 590: Why
Tang Chuxia thought carefully, “Aren’t you just involved in agricultural cultivation?”
Father Tang’s face turned dark.
Tang Chuxia tentatively spoke up, “Research on pests and diseases of agricultural products?”
That should sound impressive, right?
But Father Tang’s face turned even darker!
“Tang Chuxia, I’m your dad, your biological dad. Don’t you even know what your own father does for a living?”
Father Tang roared, but Tang Chuxia just covered her ears, not at all afraid of his outburst.
“Do you know what major I’m studying now?” Tang Chuxia shot back.
Father Tang: …
To be honest, he really wasn’t sure; the nas of majors are so complicated.
He coughed loudly twice, masking his embarrassnt, before finally saying, “Forget it, I won’t argue with you. Just rember, I work on pesticide developnt at the Agricultural Bureau!”
Tang Chuxia gasped.
“So, aren’t you the introducer of DDT?”
Father Tang: …
He wanted to throttle his daughter, who clearly had no sense of proper speech.
What is DDT?
At that ti, it wasn’t called DDT, it was called ‘3911’!
This pesticide is highly toxic.
It’s just that it’s not widely used yet and hasn’t been fully promoted, but Tang Chuxia’s expression made Father Tang realize there might be so issues with it, considering his daughter had so peculiar abilities.
“What’s wrong?”
He felt it was best to ask.
Tang Chuxia cleared her throat, sat up straight, and spoke earnestly, “Dad, out of a commoner’s kind reminder, this pesticide is highly toxic. In the future, it might not only act on crops but more often beco a favorite of those attempting suicide!”
Father Tang: …
The alertness that had just risen vanished in an instant.
What nonsense was his daughter talking about?
He didn’t want to hear a word.
Tang Chuxia chuckled dryly. How could she explain to Father Tang that in her previous life’s tiline, this pesticide was truly terrifying, with no antidote, causing multiple organ failure and a painfully conscious experience of internal decay leading to death.
So, cherish life and don’t ss around.
Father Tang didn’t know about Tang Chuxia’s internal thoughts; he just wanted to tell her, “I an, I often conduct experints, and I’m really not afraid of dying!”
Tang Chuxia scoffed; she had thought Father Tang was going to say sothing important!
They worked in pesticide research; even if they needed to experint, wouldn’t it be on plants?
Killing so weeds, at most affecting various pests on crops, how does that count as taking life?
But she respected Father Tang’s pride, who was a grown man, a grandfather, still earnestly trying to justify himself, how could Tang Chuxia bear to crush him?
“Right, right, right!”
Her perfunctory attitude was too obvious; Father Tang pointed to the door and cursed, “Get out, I don’t want to see you!”
Tang Chuxia imdiately got up and left.
Joking aside, was she the type to stick around when unwelco?
He would surely be scurrying away.
But as Father Tang watched Tang Chuxia run off so quickly, he knew she had done it on purpose, obviously not wanting to chat with this old man.
How disheartening a leaky cotton-padded jacket really is!
After leaving the study, Tang Chuxia went to look for her grandmother because there was sothing she needed to clear up.
However, both her grandparents weren’t ho, having gone to her grandmother’s nephew’s house!
The ho of her grandmother’s nephew was that of the bratty little kid who had visited after the New Year. Tang Chuxia was curious how a family with mbers as fierce as bandits lived, but she really couldn’t go over there now.
With chaos brewing at ho, she had to wait for Madam Tang to return to ensure her safety and figure out a way to have a real conversation with the true Tang Wanqiu.
A series of deaths had occurred, and Tang Chuxia, not being foolish, naturally realized there had to be so causal relationships involved.
But before Madam Tang could return, Gu Beihuai brought news, saying, “Soone wants to et you!”
Tang Chuxia: …
Really?
The seriousness of Gu Beihuai’s expression indicated it must be no ordinary person.
Yet, Tang Chuxia could never have imagined that the person to et was the controller of Tianji.
The elderly woman who saw Tang Chuxia’s sowhat cautious expression just laughed, “What? Are you scared to see ?”
Tang Chuxia hastily shook her head, “Not at all, I just didn’t expect it to be a lady!”
Nobody expected that the person behind Tianji would be an old lady, one who would go completely unnoticed on the street if not specially ntioned—except for her ticulously bundled hair at the back of her head.
Previously, Tang Chuxia had also t a high-ranking leader, but that was an old man who was a true authority holder.
However, this woman’s presence had rarely been evident anywhere, like a shadow, sothing everyone has but doesn’t pay much attention to, yet she had always been there, quietly observing everything.
Tang Chuxia had always known about Tianji’s existence and that Gu Beihuai, as the person in charge of Tianji, was well-known, and even about the talented individuals within Tianji.
But what exactly did this authority holder possess?
No matter how tumultuous Tang Chuxia felt inside, the old lady seed able to perceive the human heart.
“Don’t overthink it, I am just an ordinary person!”
Tang Chuxia gave an awkward laugh. Indeed, aged and crafty as she seed, this woman could guess everything she was thinking.
“Don’t curse as an ‘old little demon’ in your heart!”
The old lady cheerfully motioned for Tang Chuxia to sit down and not be so tense.
Gu Beihuai also sighed, sitting next to Tang Chuxia, and firmly took her hand and said, “Granny Zhang is really just an ordinary person, she has no special abilities!”
Tang Chuxia was stunned. She really hadn’t expected that.
She thought Granny Zhang was just pretending, but Gu Beihuai had given her a straight answer.
“Don’t assu that everyone in Tianji is extraordinarily gifted. Being able to oversee them is deed remarkable enough, but actually, I am really just an ordinary person, just with a bit more patience and age!”
Granny Zhang was still humorous, which piqued Tang Chuxia’s interest. She moved closer to Granny Zhang and asked, “What did you want to ask by having co here? Is it about Gu Beihuai or about my Third Brother? Or perhaps about that sister who suddenly popped up?”
Granny Zhang patted Tang Chuxia’s shoulder, “My child, it’s none of those, it’s about you!”
Tang Chuxia: …
She looked at Granny Zhang, puzzled.
Granny Zhang seriously asked Tang Chuxia, “I have always been curious about what kind of girl can be so calm about an excellent young man like Gu Beihuai, and even so resistant to the idea of a wedding ceremony. I just want to know your real thoughts, is he not good enough, or do you have other plans?”
Tang Chuxia: (⊙_⊙)?
She blankly looked towards Gu Beihuai, who covered his face.
He really didn’t want to make eye contact with Tang Chuxia!
