She Zhuyin nodded in understanding and said, "Your idea should be feasible."
"Like me, they recognize people not by appearance."
"But Gene Therapy can even alter a person's aura. Only you could do that, right? I remember seeing people who had undergone Gene Therapy before, but I didn't feel that their auras had changed."
"If it hadn't been for that coincidence this time, where you recognized me, then even if I had seen your photo with my own eyes or video-called you, I still wouldn't have recognized you."
The genetic cosmetic surgery Xia Yuanfang had performed on herself had changed her from the inside out.
Of course, even a blood test of her genes would have produced completely different results.
Then they truly would have missed each other.
At that, She Zhuyin hurriedly asked, "What about Chujian?"
"Did you also give her a complete genetic cosmetic surgery?"
Otherwise, why couldn't she sense her aura either? To her surprise, Xia Yuanfang revealed an utterly defeated expression and said faintly, "...I tried, but it didn't work."
"If I edit her genes today, they automatically revert by tomorrow. Can you believe that?"
She Zhuyin's face changed in alarm. "...How could that be?!"
Xia Yuanfang gave a bitter smile. "I don't know either. I once prided myself on knowing more about genes than anyone else."
"But from Chujian, I learned what it meant for there to always be someone better..."
"You're her mother. Tell me, what's going on?"
"I've been curious for twenty years."
She Zhuyin smiled bitterly. "You don't know, so how could I? If I knew, I wouldn't have... failed to find her for twenty years..."
Xia Yuanfang frowned. "That can't be right. Her genes haven't changed... Theoretically, her aura hasn't changed either. You should have been able to sense it, shouldn't
