At the beginning or end of each month, the school would send evolutionary resources to Shen Jianye and Xu Meng on time.

"Here, Xiao Chen, eat more of this meat."

"This is the spiritual chicken gifted by President Ma of Evolution College a few days ago. They say these chickens were raised in the Spirit Plant Garden, carefully nurtured for two and a half years, and they taste especially delicious. It's very helpful for evolution."

"There's also this spiritual fish, eating it is good for the mind, so have more as well."

Xu Meng desperately filled Lin Zichen's bowl with food, afraid that he wouldn't get enough to eat.

Lin Zichen looked at his bowl, which was quickly piling up like a hundred-meter-tall building, and hurriedly stopped her, "Aunt Meng, that's enough, that's enough, I can't finish all that."

"No problem, if you can't finish, just eat it slowly," Xu Meng said affectionately.

Zhang Wanxin treated Shen Qinghan like a daughter, and similarly, Xu Meng treated Lin Zichen like a son.

After all, she had watched him grow up from a young age; he was no different from her own son.

"Mom, Aunt Xin is pregnant with a second child."

Shen Qinghan suddenly turned to Xu Meng and said.

Xu Meng: "I knew that already."

Shen Qinghan hesitated before finally voicing her thought, "Mom, I want to be a big sister, don't you want to have another one too?"

Xu Meng promptly waved her hand in refusal, "I'm too old for that now, why would I have another child? Besides, you're almost at the age to be a mother yourself. What's this about wanting to be a big sister?"

She was a year younger than Zhang Wanxin, but she had no intention of having a second child.

Seeing this, Shen Qinghan had no choice but to drop the subject.

...

After the meal.

Lin Zichen took a rest and planned to take a trip to the research institute.

Last night, he had replicated the shapes formed by the water droplets that were hovering around Shen Qinghan onto paper, took photos, and sent them to Liu Chuanwu, asking if they were some kind of ancient script.

Liu Chuanwu found them somewhat familiar.

He seemed to have seen them on some ancient artifact but couldn't recall it at the moment.

He said he would go to the institute in the morning to look for the artifact.

But now it was almost one o'clock in the afternoon, and there was still no news from Liu Chuanwu.

Lin Zichen grew impatient and decided to go to the institute himself to see if he could find the ancient artifact mentioned by Liu Chuanwu.

"Xiao Chen, can I come with you to the institute?"

Shen Qinghan followed and asked.

Having been briefly separated during the special training period, she had become even more clingy to Lin Zichen, wanting to hold onto him every second of every minute without letting go.

"Let me ask the president."

Lin Zichen took out his phone and sent a message to Liu Chuanwu on WeChat.

[Zi Chen: President, I want to take a look around the institute now, and Qinghan wants to come with me, can I bring her?]

More than ten minutes later, Liu Chuanwu replied.

[President: Qinghan is your fiancée, she's family, feel free to come.]

[President: Wait, aren't you and Qinghan in the Nanjiang Provincial Military Region Headquarters for special training, how come you're back?]

[Zi Chen: We finished ahead of schedule.]

[President: What's the situation?]

[Zi Chen: The special training was prematurely ended due to an attack by the Divine Plant Cult during an external combat training.]

[President: What the hell? That's outrageous. What exactly happened?]

[Zi Chen: It's like this...]

Lin Zichen gave a brief explanation, using voice messages to quickly inform Liu Chuanwu about the military training events.

Liu Chuanwu was shocked upon hearing this.

Lin Zichen didn't dwell on the topic with him and quickly steered the conversation back to the ancient artifact.

[Zi Chen: President, did you find the ancient artifact you mentioned last night?]

[President: I haven't returned to the institute yet, I've been out since yesterday afternoon.]

[Zi Chen: Where is the artifact kept, I'll go look for it myself.]

[President: I don't remember exactly where it is, I think it's in the storage room. Your Sister Yan should be in the institute now, you can go look for it in the storage room with her later.]

[Zi Chen: Okay.]

[President: I have some matters to attend to, so I won't chat anymore.]

[Zi Chen: Alright.]

After replying to this message, Lin Zichen wasted no more time and immediately took Shen Qinghan to the Pure Human Research Institute to find and study that ancient artifact.
