For three years, he hadn't uttered a word, ignored phone calls, disregarded video calls, and even sent back photos that were clearly edited.

No matter how Old Wang thought about it, he felt a fire burning in his chest.

Looking at Nie Xing, who remained silent, he felt this kid must be hiding something from him, from Old Nie, from everyone!

He pondered for a moment, a flash of insight in his eyes. He secretly glanced around to ensure no one was watching, then lowered his voice and asked:

"You still don't trust your Uncle Wang? Just tell me what you're hiding. I know everything!"

"!?"

Nie Xing was startled by his words. He looked at his Uncle Wang's mysterious demeanor and his expression changed.

Suppressing the change in his expression, his mind, however, felt like an alarm had been triggered, and he became vigilant.

He immediately began to suspect if he had said anything while he was unconscious.

Although he deliberately suppressed his facial expression, the observant Old Wang still noticed it.

He then let out a hum:

"Hmph, it seems I guessed right. You found your biological parents!"

"And you lied to Old Nie, saying you were going to look for them!"

"You found them, but you can't tell Old Nie face-to-face?"

These few sentences immediately dispelled Nie Xing's nervousness. Fortunately, he hadn't said anything out of line.

He slowly shook his head, denying it.

After three years of isolation, where would he have had the time to look for his biological parents?

Furthermore, for him, those who gave birth but didn't raise him, his so-called biological parents, held no meaning or existence for him.

While Old Wang was still suspicious, Young Wang rushed in in a hurry.

He burst into the ward, panting for breath.

Interrupting their conversation.

"What are you doing? You already have a child, you should be more steady. How can you be a role model for my grandchild in the future?"

Old Wang still looked displeased with Young Wang, scolding him irritably.

Young Wang's face turned red, extremely excited!

He forcefully suppressed his heaving chest, his eyes unable to hide his excitement. He quickly handed his phone to Old Wang to look at!

On the phone, a major news report had just come out!

The prominent headline immediately caught Old Wang's attention, and he couldn't help but be shocked!

[Latest Report: Dragon Country, after three years of secret research, has finally seen the dragon emerge from the sea. The first new Super Yuan Dual Wave Missile has been successfully detonated on the Gobi Desert!]

Several consecutive headlines were reporting this news!

[Three years of secret research, in places unknown to anyone, they strived, burned, and fought! To protect our Dragon Country!]

[Shocking! Dragon Country's first Super Yuan Dual Wave Missile successfully detonated, showcasing Dragon Country's determination in scientific research and resistance, fully displaying the strength of a great nation!]

[From nothing to something, Super Yuan Dual Wave Missile technology was developed by Dragon Country over three years! Dragon Country has become the country with the shortest development time for Super Yuan technology in the entire world!]

Below the headlines were photos of the explosion site of the Super Yuan Dual Wave Missile.

The black explosion shockwave was like a sky-piercing spear, reaching to the heavens!

The surging fiery waves spread out in an arc. Even from the photo, one could feel the suffocating heat and terror!

Looking further up, there were double-layered snow-white mushroom clouds from the surging shockwaves. Interspersed within them were purplish-black lightning flames, creating a scene that was utterly shocking!

Below the article were photos of the arduous experimental environments and conditions of various researchers, as well as important moments from various explosion milestones. There were also relevant statements issued by the Dragon Country authorities, and various announcements regarding the mastery of the technology, and so on.

"Isn't this the technology that those foreigners have? Dragon Country has it too!?"

Upon seeing the words in the headline, Old Wang's face immediately showed shock!

In recent years, several foreign countries with strong scientific research capabilities had used this technology to constantly coerce and intimidate Dragon Country, even threatening it!

This kind of advanced superweapon had already become a shadow over many weaker nations!

Who would have thought that today, Dragon Country would also possess this superweapon technology!

Young Wang's eyes welled up with tears of excitement!

He nodded repeatedly:

"Yes, those sons of bitches used to show off and threaten us all the time. Now we have our own weapon!"

"Let me… let me see!"

Hearing their words, Nie Xing was stunned for a moment, then quickly leaned in to examine the news on the phone together!

His expression first showed surprise, then he smiled.

Tears streamed uncontrollably down his face, and he finally choked with emotion.

Three years!

Three full years!!

Countless researchers poured their desperate efforts in, working day and night, some even sacrificing themselves on those unknown Gobi Desert plains!

No one knew when this experiment would end, or if it would ultimately succeed!

Yet, they resolutely chose to dedicate everything they had to serve their country!

During those days of isolation from the world, some fell ill, some collapsed, but no one complained of hardship, no one wavered in their resolve!

They knew that if they didn't conduct this research, their Dragon Country's hundreds of millions would face unimaginable oppression and threats!

Lag behind, and you invite a beating!

This was a bloody lesson from history, and they had to strive for self-improvement to develop this technology for Dragon Country!

The great Huaxia should not be scorned by other nations.

To be looked down upon by foreigners, how could those with aspirations not feel heartbroken!

If foreigners could possess the technology, Dragon Country must possess it too!

They were also ordinary people, but behind them stood the country and people they loved!

Beside him, Young Wang excitedly swiped across the screen, pulling up photos of those researchers.

"These researchers have also been exposed; they are all heroes of Dragon Country! Each one will be awarded a national-level medal of honor! They suffered greatly these past three years. Look at the research environment and conditions in these photos; what difficult circumstances they faced!"

"When you get old, you just can't help it. Seeing this news, tears just started streaming down my face!"

Old Wang laughed, and tears welled up in his eyes.

The patriotism of Dragon Country people is deeply ingrained in their bones.

Perhaps a simple national anthem, or perhaps the raising of a red flag, could resonate with countless people!

Now, the news of the successful detonation of the Super Yuan Dual Wave Missile, shocking the entire world, further inspires and moves every Dragon Country citizen!

The country's strength is their greatest sense of security and pride!

The two took turns scrolling through the researchers' photos, not wanting to swipe past any of them easily. Until, they saw a researcher leaning on a cane, still insisting on drawing diagrams and calculating data on-site despite being injured, their gaze paused!

This figure seemed somewhat familiar?

They quickly looked at the description below the picture.

(Director Nie.jpg): During an experiment, a malfunction in the control system caused a minor explosion in the research workshop. Director Nie, who was in the workshop, sustained a leg injury. Despite being told he needed a month to recover, he insisted on returning to duty the very next day, inspiring countless researchers!

"Why do I feel like this Director Nie looks a bit like Xingzi?"

Young Wang looked at the figure in the photo, which was a bit blurry, then looked at Nie Xing, and the more he looked, the more he felt they resembled each other.

But these were all heroes.

It wouldn't be good to speak carelessly.

Old Wang, hearing this, also's eyes lit up:

"Don't say it, he really does look a bit like him! And they both have the surname Nie, isn't that a coincidence?"

"Nie Xing hasn't been around for these three years, has he? And he works in the research institute!"

Young Wang chimed in.

As soon as he finished speaking, the two seemed to realize something!

After exchanging a glance, they both looked at Nie Xing!

Without waiting for Nie Xing to speak, Young Wang walked directly to the bedside, his trembling hands slowly pulling up his trouser leg!

Nie Xing's leg was exposed!

Instantly, a shocking expanse of mottled scars appeared before their eyes!

The two froze, looking at the leg injury from the explosion. Tears immediately welled up, but they were speechless for a long time.

It's paid off!
