The moment she heard these words, Lu Xiaoqiao was stunned. She looked at Lu Zhou with a nk face.
“I... Wait a minute, I don’t quite understand what you mean. You mean... my grandfather’s father is yours and Xiao Tong’s son?”
When Lu Xiaoqiao spoke the second half of her sentence, she herself felt that it was ridiculous, and her voice weakened subconsciously.
However, even so, Lu Zhou heard what she said. He nearly choked to death on his own spit, and he coughed several times before speaking.
“Your ancestors are rolling in the grave right now...”
Lu Xiaoqiao smiled with a slightly embarrassed expression as she apologized in a quiet voice.
“Sorry.”
“It’s fine.” Lu Zhou sighed and continued after being silent for a while, “Actually, you should be my great-great-granddaughter. I should have told you immediately after discovering the truth, but at the time I wasn’t prepared... I should be the one apologizing.”
“It’s fine... It’s from 100 years ago,” Lu Xiaoqiao said in a quiet voice. She looked at Lu Zhou with a trace of shame on her face. “But I don’t quite understand. Everyone said that you are not married yet?”
Lu Zhou: “Ips technology can induce somatic cells to differentiate into induced stem cells, then into germ cells. This is not particrly difficult.”
“Sorry... My mind is a bit confused,” Lu Xiaoqiao said with a headache. “So I am actually your offspring? But who is my great-great-grandmother?”
Lu Zhou shook his head and said, “I have read a lot of literature on this point, but I haven’t found a clear record.”
Lu Xiaoqiao asked, “But how did you know? This is all from 100 years ago—”
“Some things won’t change, even after a hundred years.”
Lu Zhou took out a ring box from his pocket and opened it gently.
When Lu Xiaoqiao saw the ring box in Lu Zhou’s hand, she was slightly stunned.
“What’s this...”
“I left it next to my pillow before I first went to Mars. She wrote a letter about the Bloodline Project, about her whereabouts, and left it in this box.”
Seeing theplicated expression on Lu Zhou’s face, Lu Xiaoqiao went silent for a while. She then whispered, “Is that person... Chen Yushan?”
“Yeah.”
Lu Zhou smiled and nodded. He then gave her an admiring look.
“It seems like you know your history.”
Lu Xiaoqiao smiled bitterly and did not respond.
<i>This is probably not history, it’s more like genealogy.</i>
Seeing that his great-great-granddaughter did not speak, Lu Zhou looked at the star map on the wall of the conference room and continued, “Actually, you probably know this. I am building a ship that can travel to the world outside the sr system.”
“The Milky Way?”
“Yeah.”
Lu Zhou nodded lightly and continued, “I once said that I would give her a star and leave a legend about us there. Also, judging from the things she wrote in the love letter, she is likely waiting for me.”
<i>What if you arrive before her?</i>
Lu Xiaoqiao wanted to ask this, but after hesitating for a long time, she finally decided against speaking.
As the most outstanding schr in the world, he definitely knew what old spacecraft looked like.
With just a sma engine, it would take 10,000 or even 20,000 years to reach a world ten light-years away.
However, since he was saying this, he must have already considered this situation.
Thus, whatever she said at the moment was superfluous.
“Actually, don’t feel too guilty... I don’t really mind who my great-great-grandfather is, but I still feel a little unfortunate that I didn’t inherit your wisdom.” Lu Xiaoqiao smiled embarrassedly. She said with a shameful look, “Sure enough, we are too stupid...”
“Don’t say that. People don’t live for one reason only. Even if you don’t engage in academic research, it’s okay to pursue a career you like... This is the only wish I have for you guys.”
Lu Zhou looked at Lu Xiaoqiao, who was sitting across from him. He continued to speak after being silent for a while.
“The reason for asking you toe, apart from telling you the truth from 100 years ago, is because there’s one more important thing I have to discuss with you.”
“... What thing?”
“About the future.”
Lu Zhou reached out his index finger and tapped on the personal terminal. He then looked at the holographic screen unfolding in front of him, selected the document located in the center of the screen, and gently pushed it in front of Lu Xiaoqiao.
When Lu Xiaoqiao saw the document floating in front of her, she was slightly stunned. She looked at Lu Zhou with confusion in her eyes.
“What’s this...?”
Lu Zhou: “This is an agreement that’s simr to a family trust. Not long ago, I reorganized the business of Star Sky Technology. It will serve as apany engaged in space trading and new aerospace technology research and development... You are the first manager.”
Lu Zhou thought about this a long time ago.
He still remembered that he first had this idea when he and Xing Bian were investigating the Bloodline Project and found the ring box.
A long time ago, when he had just discovered the remains of the spacecraft in The Gates of Hell, he had already foreseen that one day in the future, he would be just like General Reinhardt, living at a ce far away from his hometown.
Therefore, he must properly allocate his assets before leaving.
From this perspective, he should be grateful for this Bloodline Project. At the very least, it helped him find a suitable sessor.
Perhaps someday in the future, this family would give birth to a great schr who was not inferior to himself.
If this was the case, he would be satisfied.
“Me?” Lu Xiaoqiao was slightly stunned. She said, “But am I... really suitable? It was because of our business mistakes that Star Sky Technology almost went bankrupt.”
“It’s okay to go bankrupt. Companies are something outside of the soul. Everyone has their own historical mission. The same is true forpanies. Star Sky Technology haspleted its historical mission a century ago, so my expectations have been met.”
Seeing that Lu Xiaoqiao had a dazed look on her face, Lu Zhou smiled gently and continued in a calm tone.
“Also, it wasn’t your fault, it was done by your father. I believe that you are different from him. The Freezing Human Rights Protection Foundation’s lofty status in this era is proof of your abilities. To be honest, it’s really a waste of time to let the Star Sky Technology brand stay in a museum like this.
“If you want to live up to my expectations, then re-ignite its light in this new era.”
