Rebirth: Controlled Nuclear Fusion

Part 63：Closed-Loop Research

After Elder Long finished his instructions, he asked Jiang Fan to compile a list of materials required for the experiment.

Subsequently, Elder Long sent the list to the relevant personnel, instructing them to ensure that the materials were delivered to the laboratory by 8 a.m. the following day.

With a glance at Jiang Fan, Elder Long's affection was apparent.

"Jiang Fan, let's go, take me to meet your girlfriend!"

"Alright!" Jiang Fan nodded, and the two of them began to head out.

At this moment, Xu Guangyuan timidly called out, "Academician Long, what should we be doing now?"

Because Elder Long had just instructed them to halt their current research and fully cooperate with Jiang Fan, they were suddenly at a loss as to what to do.

Elder Long, somewhat annoyed, replied, "Just do whatever you were doing, you don't need to stay late tonight."

After speaking, he left with Jiang Fan, leaving the three of them standing there, exchanging bewildered glances.

"Xu Guangyuan, could it be that Academician Long has been enchanted by Jiang Fan? Just when our research was about to yield results, he stopped everything so easily!" Xia Xiaoyu remarked.

"Sigh! The problem is, I don't believe Jiang Fan's idea of the lithium iron phosphate power battery is remotely reliable," Xu Guangyuan said helplessly.

"Well, if Academician Long says do something, we should just do it!" Niu Xu remarked nonchalantly.

"Fine, so no research tonight? Sister, off to have fun then!" Xia Xiaoyu quipped, shrugging her concerns and agreeing with Niu Xu's perspective that if Elder Long had said it, they should just follow along.

Then, Xia Xiaoyu suddenly recalled that Jiang Fan had mentioned he had a girlfriend. Wait a minute! Her best friend, Qiao Yifei, had asked her to investigate Jiang Fan's background!

Quickly, she took out her phone and dialed Qiao Yifei.

As Elder Long and Jiang Fan made their way to Jiang Fan's residence, Elder Long took a quick detour to his own home.

Soon, they arrived at Jiang Fan's place.

Upon hearing the knock on the door, Chu Ruoxi hurriedly emerged from the kitchen.

She opened the door, and indeed, Jiang Fan had returned, accompanied by an elderly man.

She guessed it must be Jiang Fan's teacher. Before Jiang Fan could introduce him, she greeted the old man with a bright smile.

"Hello, Professor! Please, come in!"

Seeing how cheerful and beautiful the young woman was, Elder Long smiled warmly and responded, "Yes, thank you!"

They entered the living room, and Chu Ruoxi quickly prepared some fruit for Elder Long.

"Professor, please have some fruit!"

"Thank you! By the way, what's your name, young lady?" Elder Long inquired.

"My name is Chu Ruoxi, I'm Jiang Fan's high school classmate!" Chu Ruoxi introduced herself confidently.

"Ah, very nice! Jiang Fan, you're a lucky man!" Elder Long teased.

In fact, the reason Elder Long had come was to ensure that Jiang Fan was in good hands. He was genuinely concerned that Jiang Fan might end up with a girl who was ill-tempered, which could severely affect his research.

However, from what he could see, Chu Ruoxi was well-educated, cheerful, and personable—truly a wonderful match for Jiang Fan.

Elder Long finally felt at ease.
