Morgan Manor
Country M, in the suburbs of Luo Shengdu.
A huge manor was located here.
The manor covered an area of nearly 2,000 acres. The horse track, farm, garden, golf course, and other areas in the manor were clearly separated. They were dotted with ancient European buildings that were full of historical and artistic beauty. Together, they formed this extremely luxurious manor.
In Luo Shengdu, where every inch of land was expensive, owning such a huge manor was undoubtedly the best display of wealth and strength. The owner of this manor indeed had the qualifications.
This was because this manor was called Morgan.
Outside Morgan Manor, a straight private road led directly to the manor. A black Rolls-Royce was driving steadily and at high speed on the road.
"Mr. Xu, when you meet Miss later, please pay attention to your actions and words. Otherwise, you might not be selected.”
In the carriage, a silver-haired old man dressed in a butler's uniform said gently as he looked at the young man sitting in front of him.
The young man was about twenty years old and had a thin figure. Although he was a black-haired Asian, he had a high nose bridge and fair skin. His well-defined face perfectly combined the unique handsomeness of Asian men with the unique three-dimensional facial features of Western men, making it difficult for people to look away.
However, there was a fly in the ointment. His entire face was expressionless, and his deep amber eyes were bottomless. His entire temperament seemed to reject people a thousand miles away.
It would be great if this perfect face could smile more.
"Yes."
Hearing the butler's reminder, the young man responded, indicating that he understood. However, his eyes were fixed on the scenery outside the car window.
This silver-haired old man was Sebas, the chief butler of Morgan Manor, and this young man was one of the ten candidates chosen by Jessica, Xu Changqing.
Although Xu Changqing had been looking out of the window, his mind was not on the scenery at all.
All he could think about now was his research project that had to be shelved due to lack of funds.
No company was willing to invest in his crazy research project, but this was normal. Which company would be willing to invest in a project that required tens of millions of dollars and was not sure if it would succeed?
However, as long as he received the payment for this transaction, he should be able to support his research project.
Thinking of this, Xu Changqing's handsome face revealed a self-deprecating smile. In order to survive under the alien Star Destroyer five years later, he, a world-renowned top scientist, had actually fallen to the point of selling sperm to maintain his research. It was really ridiculous.
The car stopped in front of the tall iron gate of Morgan Manor. A blue light scanned the entire car, and then the iron gate opened automatically.
Morgan Manor looked ancient, but it was actually filled with modern technology and was heavily guarded. This was the place where the core members of the Morgan family lived, so how could it not be guarded?
Xu Changqing also collected his thoughts and began to size up this ancient and luxurious manor with a long history.
Morgan Manor maintained a strict hierarchy. Wherever his car passed, the maids and gardeners along the way all put down their work and bowed their heads. Without exception, they only continued their work after they left.
The foundation and accumulation of a family was revealed from such details.
The manor was huge. If they didn't take a car and walked alone, they wouldn't be able to reach their destination even if they walked for an hour.
Ten minutes later, the car slowly stopped outside a golf course. Sebas got out of the car and opened the door for Xu Changqing. Then, he smiled and said,"Mr. Xu, please follow me."
Xu Changqing nodded and followed Sebas into the golf course.
As soon as he walked into the golf course, he saw a blonde woman in white sportswear swinging the golf ball on the lawn. Her movements were extremely standard and full of tension. The golf ball drew a beautiful arc in the air and accurately fell into the hole.
"Miss Jessica, Mr. Xu is here.”
Sebast bowed to the blonde woman and said respectfully.
Jessica handed the cue stick to the maid and took a hot towel from her to wipe her hands before turning around.
She was sweating a lot after exercising. Her sweatshirt stuck to her delicate body, outlining her mature and voluptuous figure. It was very attractive.
"You are Xu Changqing?"
Jessica looked at Xu Changqing and nodded." He looks good. He's more handsome than in the photo."”
With Jessica's status, all of her suitors were outstanding men. However, in terms of looks, Xu Changqing was the most outstanding man she had ever seen.
However, she didn't care too much about this. She was more concerned about Xu Changqing's own ability and whether he was really as outstanding as the information said.
"Have a seat."
Jessica said calmly. She walked to a small table and sat down. A maid immediately poured her a cup of coffee and stood beside her.
After Xu Changqing sat down, Sebast placed a document in front of Jessica. She picked up the document and read it aloud.
"…Xu Changqing, 20 years old, from Shanghai of the Dragon Country. He has shown outstanding talent in mathematics, physics, and chemistry since he was young. He has won more than 100 provincial and national competitions. At the age of 17, he self-studied and completed all the university courses. Then, he directly passed the TOEFL and was successfully admitted to Yale University.”
"He performed well in all aspects during his university days. He spent only two years getting a Ph.D. in physics, chemistry, and biology. He is also the youngest Ph.D. in Yale University's history. His published papers have attracted the attention of the academic community several times…"
When Jessica was reading Xu Changqing's monstrous resume, Xu Changqing's expression was very calm, without any complacency.
Jessica finished reading the information and took a sip of coffee to moisten her throat. After looking at Xu Changqing's expression, she asked curiously,""You're such a genius with a promising future. Why did you insist on researching the X gene project a year ago? No matter how one looked at it, repairing and reconstructing cells was a fantasy.”
A year ago, Xu Changqing published a paper on the X gene, proposing the idea of using the X gene to repair dead nerves and cells to restore paralyzed and neurologically disabled people to normal. However, it was rejected by the academic authorities as nonsense, and he refused to give up on his research.
It was precisely because of this that he was labeled as being too ambitious. In addition, he had always insisted on researching and refused to listen to dissuasion, causing many people to think that he was too stubborn and unreasonable. His originally bright future had dimmed because of this.
"Do I have to answer this?"
Xu Changqing frowned and said the first thing he said since he came here.
His voice was just like his appearance, with a faint sense of distance and coldness.
Jessica was a little dissatisfied with Li Changqing's cold attitude. She said indifferently,"It's just that I'm personally curious. It's fine if you don't want to tell me.”
Xu Changqing was silent for a moment and said calmly,"I can only say that my pursuits are different from theirs. I may not care about what they pursue, but they don't care about what I pursue.”
"If we don't conduct research, how would we know that the X gene will definitely not succeed? Most of the impossibilities in the world were for people to break. Making the impossible possible was the true meaning of science. If everything could be concluded, then what was the use of scientists?”
These words that should have been impassioned came out of Xu Changqing's mouth in an extremely calm manner. However, there was a sense of determination and determination.
It was only at this moment that Jessica started to take Xu Changqing seriously.
To be honest, although Xu Changqing's achievements were very monstrous, she did not pay much attention to it because there were many monstrous people in the world. There were countless geniuses in her Morgan Financial Group.
What really impressed Jessica was Xu Changqing's determination to stick to a clear goal.
This was my only goal. So what if countless people thought it was impossible? So what if I failed? It had nothing to do with me.
This was easy to say, but it was too difficult to do.
"Yeah, how do you know it's impossible if you don't try?”
Jessica's eyes were a little absent-minded as she muttered to herself. However, she quickly regained her senses and closed the information in her hand.
"Miss?"
Seeing this, Sebast asked with some doubt.
Jessica handed the information back to him and said,""There's no need to meet the other nine candidates.”
