Professor Zhang chuckled. "Major Han, you're so young and promising. I'll be counting on you to keep Wanwan safe. She's the most important person right now."
Before Chi Wan could even shake her head, Han Ming said sternly, "Professor Zhang, my duty is to protect all three of you. To us, every researcher is equally precious."
Professor Zhang paused for a moment, then smiled. "The future belongs to the young, after all."
But Chi Wan replied, "But the young still have to stand on the shoulders of their predecessors."
After a pause, she said with a grin, "Besides, Professor Zhang, being in your seventies is the perfect age for..."
"...the perfect age for hard work, right?" Professor Zhang said with a look of resignation. "Even a capitalist wouldn't exploit an old man as you do."
Chi Wan simply smiled without saying a word.
