A hundred flavors of life

Chapter 289 Nervous Ding Mengmeng! (Seek full order)

PS: Two chapters in one.

Stem cell experiments mainly start with epidermal stem cells. Generally, healthy skin contains a small number of stem cells. These stem cells are usually silent, but when the skin is damaged, they will be activated to help repair the skin.

However, when the above process goes wrong, it can lead to cancer.

Damage to DNA or activation of oncogenes triggers a cascade of reactions that culminates in abnormal cell proliferation and cancer.

The research in the laboratory encountered a bottleneck here, and the experimental subjects of mice injected with stem cells almost always ended like this.

Hua Twelve, along with Connie Carter and Ding Mengmeng, repeats the same experiment every day, expecting a miracle to happen, hoping that different experimental individuals will produce different changes, so that detailed techniques can be provided for the experiment refer to.

But this chance is slim, it's almost luck.

Of course, the experiment itself is just a matter of luck. No matter what kind of experiment it is, it must first have a research direction, and then use the acquired knowledge to demonstrate it step by step and verify its feasibility. There is an element of luck.

However, Hua Twelve still feels that if this continues, the research on stem cells will not make any progress, and it is just a waste of time.

At the meeting before work that day, Hua Twelve suggested to Connie Carter and Ding Mengmeng:
"I think we should go in a different direction!"

Connie asked very interestedly: "Tell me what you think!"

Hua Twelve organized his language and said: "I was thinking, now we are all extracting stem cells from the epidermis, so can we reverse everything now and use our own adult cells to create an embryonic stem cell? What about protocells? Maybe that would give different experimental results."

Ding Mengmeng nodded suddenly: "It's a good idea, you can try it!"

After thinking about it, Connie Carter's eyes suddenly lit up: "In this case, we can still use viruses!"

"Virus?"

Hua Shier and Ding Mengmeng asked in unison.

"Yes, virus!"

Connie Carter explained: "Even if human adult cells are used to create primitive cells like embryonic stem cells, there is no guarantee that they will not mutate, so what if viruses are added during the process of making embryonic stem cells?"

Seeing that the two did not understand, she explained in detail: "We know that there is currently no way to change the properties of cells, except viruses!"

"There are tens of millions of known transcription viruses, all of which can change the properties of cells. Among them, hepatitis B virus and HPV virus have the risk of cancer, but not all of them have it. As long as one is safe and reliable, it can even inhibit the mutation of stem cells. Viruses, use it to change the properties of cells, and our problem will be solved!"

Ding Mengmeng waved her small fist: "Yeah, I finally see hope!"

Connie Carter shrugged and smiled at her students:
"Don't be too optimistic. There are tens of millions of viruses. If we are lucky, it will take us three to 40 years to find the answer. I guess I won't be able to wait, but you still have hope. Good luck!"

"I believe we will succeed!"

Ding Mengmeng smiled and gave Connie Carter a high-five, then turned around to clap with Hua Twelve, who rolled his eyelids, turned and walked away without saying a word.

It's really not that Hua Shier is stingy or out of gregarious, but he thinks that Ding Mengmeng has recently suffered a psychosis, so it's better to keep her away.

From the day Ding Mengmeng walked into the wrong room, Hua Shier felt that the relationship between the two had become weird.

In the research room during the day, Ding Mengmeng seemed to be a normal person, she should talk and smile, she never found fault with that day's incident, and it would not affect her work.

But when she came back home at night, she seemed to be a different person. She gave him a cold face and refused to say a word.

It doesn't matter if that's all there is to it, what makes Hua Twelve a little bit unbearable is that the diet at home has changed a lot.

As the sponsor of living expenses, Hua Shier enjoys leisure as he should, and entrusts Ding Mengmeng with the task of cooking.

But the latter was okay before, everyone was carnivore, Ding Mengmeng made steak, roast chicken, and seafood in different ways, but since she walked into the wrong room that day, the previous recipes disappeared completely, and what appeared on the dining table was Different papaya set meals.

Breakfast is basically papaya milk porridge, or fried papaya balls, papaya salad for dinner, and a large glass of papaya juice, which is called nutrition and weight loss.

From the very beginning, Hua Twelve also knew that although he was not at fault for what happened that day, he actually took advantage of the other party. He only thought that Ding Mengmeng was using his petty temper to retaliate against him in a disguised form. It'll be fine when the other party's anger subsides.

But this papaya has been eaten for more than half a month, until today.

Ding Mengmeng saw Hua Twelve walking away, and instead of clapping her hands, raised the corners of her mouth, she staggered to him with her hands behind her back, and asked with a smile:

"Hey, are you angry?"

"Student Guo Xiaolu, I'm going to criticize you for this. You can't bring the troubles in your life to work. Look at me, have you suffered such a big loss, has it affected your work? Has it affected the communication between colleagues? What!"

Hua Twelve was so angry: "Then after you get off work."

"Hey, stop, after get off work is our personal grievances, I'm talking about working hours, Guo Xiaolu, it's outrageous for you to be so indiscriminate between public and private!"

Ding Mengmeng joked with a smile.

Hua Twelve turned around, looked directly at the girl with a smirk on her face, and said in a discussing tone:
"Student Ding Mengmeng, I want to make a small suggestion. Can we change our meals in the future?"

Ding Mengmeng is still very talkative during the day, she raised her eyebrows and asked with a smile, "For example?"

"For example, I haven't eaten meat, steak, etc. for a long time. If you don't have enough money, you can ask me for it. Don't start with food, okay?"

Ding Mengmeng's smile became even cuter, and she snapped her fingers: "OK, I'll go to the market after work and make you a big steak dinner!"

Seeing that she agreed, Hua Twelve reached out to give Ding Mengmeng a high-five, and then went back to work contentedly. Before he thought about it, the previous things were over.

But he underestimated the narrow-mindedness of women.

In the evening, Hua Shier returned home, recorded the research data during the day, and waited for the steak dinner. An hour later, Ding Mengmeng's cold voice sounded at the door:

"Have a meal!"

Hua Twelve hurriedly put down the pen, smiled and rubbed his hands and walked to the dining table with a look of anticipation on his face, and then he was dumbfounded to see two lumps of yellow, like 'Xiang', placed in front of him on a plate, exuding Not disgusting, but somewhat unpleasant smell.

He hurriedly asked: "Ding Mengmeng, what are these two lumps of your excrement?"

Ding Mengmeng pointed to a big bowl of yellow things, and introduced:

"Don't you want to eat meat? This bowl is braised beef brisket with papaya. I found Cantonese food in an Italian cookbook!"

Hua Twelve has a black thread, let's not talk about whether this bowl of Xiang-like food can be eaten, but what the hell is your Cantonese menu in Italian?

Ding Mengmeng coldly pointed at another plate, which looked like dried Xiang, and said, "Today's main dish is stewed steak with papaya!"

Hua Shishi said helplessly: "Ding Mengmeng, you are enough, I won't talk about yin and yang all day long, and now I still have a papaya left and a papaya right, I'm going to throw up if you don't disgust me."

He dragged his chest muscles and said: "I have seriously suspected that I have breast hyperplasia these days. I will go to the hospital for an examination tomorrow. If it is true, I will fight you!"

Ding Mengmeng rolled her eyes: "Didn't someone tell me to eat papaya to make up for it, and even gave me the money specially, I'm using it for a special purpose!"

Hua Twelve was so angry: "You make up for you, you bring me a big man to make up for you, what's the matter!"

Ding Mengmeng ignored him, sat down and ate happily, and smacked her mouth, as if it was delicious.

Hua Twelve sighed: "You can do it, you don't have to cook my food anymore, I will take care of the meal myself!"

As he said that, he picked up his coat and turned to go out, aiming at the restaurant downstairs.

After arriving downstairs, Hua Twelve ordered a Spanish paella, a glass of white wine, and it was a happy meal for one meal.

When I got home, I saw that Ding Mengmeng had even drawn the curtain, and there was a note on it, 'Do not disturb during rest'!
Hua Twelve didn't think too much, just as he was about to go back to the room, he suddenly moved his nose, as if smelling something, he immediately opened the curtain, and saw Ding Mengmeng biting a piece of black pepper steak, Staring at him with wide eyes.

Hua Shishi couldn't laugh or cry: "Okay you, so the papaya is prepared for me, you can eat the steak yourself!"

Ding Mengmeng swallowed the steak in two mouthfuls: "Nonsense, I also eat it myself, I have grown up recently!"

After she finished speaking, she looked at her chest, and suddenly realized that she was a bit indecent, and said blushingly, "Hey, are you pulling the girl behind the curtain to play with Liu Mang, you gentle beast."

Hua Twelve hurriedly closed the curtain again:

"It's not like you're naked, why are you yelling, be careful I'm really an animal, and I'll eat you when the time comes, you won't even have time to cry!"

Not only was Ding Mengmeng not afraid, she even hummed a local Czech song.

Hua Twelve had a black thread on his head, he couldn't hide it if he couldn't be provoked, he went back to the bedroom and closed the door, and continued to record the experimental data.

When he closed the door on this side, Ding Mengmeng whispered 'tow' on the other side: "Just talk and don't practice fake moves!"

In fact, when Hua Twelfth sewed a Chinese knot on her abdomen, she had a good impression of this man. After coming to the Czech Republic, she thought that the two sides would never see each other again. Unexpectedly, he also came to the Czech Republic and lived in each other. Under the eaves, her inner emotions became a little subtle.

After being touched inexplicably that day, although Ding Mengmeng was a little overwhelmed, she still had a hint of happiness in her heart, but when she turned around, Hua Twelve pretended to be fine, and the more she looked at it, the angrier she became.

Every night after returning home, I give him a cold face, just to let him start to coax her first. In Ding Mengmeng's mind, you are a big man, although I don't blame you for that matter, but you also took advantage of me, coax her a few words what happened again.

Unexpectedly, Hua Twelve was like a piece of wood, and the cold war has continued until today.

Of course, she is not used to the cold war with Hua Twelve, so she will return to her nature and talk and laugh with him during the day.

It's just that she didn't make it clear, and Hua Shier didn't know the little girl's thoughts, so she thought she was endocrine insufficiency and crazy.

After eating, Ding Mengmeng covered the quilt with her mouth pouting, and went to sleep, there was everything in her dream.

Another month has passed, and during this month, the relationship between the two has not eased much, as always.

Hua Shishi doesn't intend to curry favor with the other party. Although the system task is to let him accept Ding Mengmeng, there are ways to accept Ding Mengmeng. It's not good to be a dog licker. This temper is not tempered, and he always plays petty when he turns around. Who can bear it? what.

The laboratory changed the original experimental idea and began to search for the virus that can inhibit the mutation of stem cells according to what Professor Connie Carter said.

One day, a woman in the laboratory called Hua Shishi. When Ding Mengmeng called him, she looked suspicious.

Hua Twelve walked over to pick up the phone, Ding Mengmeng leaned over to eavesdrop, but he stretched out his hand and pushed him away, before asking, "Who is looking for me?"

It was Su Lingfang who called. She said that she was tired of staying in the country and wanted to come to Prague to see Hua Shishi. This made him feel good. He has been holding back for several months. Could he be in a bad mood?

When Hua Twelve put down the phone and wanted to continue working, Ding Mengmeng blocked the way. If he turned left, the girl would go left; if he turned right, this girl would go right.

Hua Twelve took a deep breath and looked at the other party: "What are you doing?"

The smile on Ding Mengmeng's face remained unchanged, and she asked, "Who is it? Look at your bright smile, Su Lingfang?"

Hua Twelve stretched out his hand and pushed her aside: "It has nothing to do with you, I told you not to pry into my personal privacy!"

Ding Mengmeng was not as strong as him, so she was directly pulled away. Seeing him walking over, she turned her head and said:
"We are roommates and colleagues. I don't care about you. It's okay if it's Su Lingfang. You were fine before. If you attract others, it's a moral issue and you must criticize it!"

Hua Twelve put a group of experimental materials into the refrigerated centrifuge, and then said impatiently:
"Hurry up and work, I still want to live forever, so don't worry about eating carrots!"

Ding Mengmeng pointed at him angrily: "Hey you, you don't know good people!"

Another call came in the afternoon, this time it seemed that it was from Ding Mengmeng. While answering the phone, the girl glanced at Hua Twelve.

When getting off work in the evening, Ding Mengmeng left with her bag in hand. Ever since the two had a cold war at home, Hua Twelve chose to walk instead of riding in her broken car.

Hua Twelve also packed up his things and left the lab with Connie Carter. Before parting, he asked Connie for a three-day vacation because Su Lingfang was coming.

Connie blinked her blue eyes with a smile in her eyes:

"Just now, Mengmeng also asked for a three-day vacation. Well, I know you young people need time to get along. I approved it. Our laboratory has been working hard recently, and my old bones can't bear it. Just take a week off!"

Hua Shier heard that Connie seemed to have misunderstood his relationship with Ding Mengmeng, and quickly explained: "Ding and I haven't yet"

Connie waved her hand: "I know, it's time for you guys, I wish you success, handsome boy!"

Early the next morning, after Hua Shier woke up, he didn't look at what Ding Mengmeng was doing, got dressed and went downstairs, took a taxi and went straight to the airport.

But as soon as she arrived at the airport exit, she saw Ding Mengmeng standing there holding this sign, with three large characters 'Wang Xiaomo' written on the sign!
　Thanks: brother 08a for the reward, thanks for the support of brothers who pay 200 yuan for a pack of spicy strips, thanks for the brothers who voted monthly and recommended votes, and thanks for the brothers who read books and collected them, thank you.
