Chapter 1340
In an instant, Thompson's attention was turned to the computer. He let go of Austin's shoulders and
took a few steps forward. "How is it?"
Lily didn't answer as she tapped away on the keyboard, watching the data on the screen move around
quickly. After a while, the integration was complete.
"It's a success!" The excitement in her voice was unmistakable.
Although this experiment was a simple medicinal herb fusion, it was still a giant leap forward. As long
as there were successful precedents, the subsequent ones would be easier. There would always be
some commonalities between them.
"Amazing!" Thompson was delighted as he pumped his fists happily. "This is terrific! I knew I was right
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtabout you, Lily! You are amazing! You're still our savior at the end of the day. I thought you wouldn't
return. I'm so glad you're back!"
He continued saying, "Now that you're back, I'm sure the experiment will succeed! Austin, don't you
think so?" Seeing that he didn't get a response, he turned to look at Austin, only to see him standing
there, motionless and expressionless.
"Austin?" Thompson found this a little strange. Could it be that he was overwhelmed with emotions?
At this moment, Lily returned to reality, only to remember that there was a third person in the room. She
quickly straightened up and walked toward Austin, patting him on the back. "He must be so happy that I
succeeded that he's speechless!"
Her seemingly simple pat released him from the suppression he had been feeling. He suddenly was
able to move his hands and feet, although they were a little numb.
"Really?" Thompson was a little bewildered. If Austin was thrilled, why didn't he show emotions or
answer when people talked to him? "Austin?"
Austin returned to his senses and shot a conflicted look at Lily before hurriedly responding to
Thompson. "Yes, Professor Thompson!"
As soon as Austin opened his mouth, he felt his throat was dry. He took this opportunity to clear his
throat and hide his embarrassment. He was conflicted at the moment. The shock he had experienced
in the short ten minutes was indescribable.
Although he still didn't believe that Lily could hit such acupressure points, there was no other
explanation for what had happened. With a pat on his back, he suddenly returned to normal. If it was
not acupressure points, could it be magic?
However, no matter how shocked, terrified, and troubled he felt, he would not tell anyone about this,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmespecially Thompson.
Thompson already had an inexplicable belief in this woman. Now that her experiment has succeeded, if
Austin told Thompson that she knew about acupressure points, he would regard her as a god.
Austin would not say a word.
Thompson was unhappy when he noticed that Austin seemed distracted. How could he be distracted at
such a serious and tense moment?!
However, because of the experiment's success and Austin's reputation, Thompson let it slide and
patted him on the shoulder. "This success is tremendous progress for the entire investigation. This is
good news!
'This shows that we're heading in the right direction, and this is feasible. Next, I will need the two of you
to continue working hard. This is all dependent on your efforts!"
"Got it, Professor Thompson," Austin replied, a little absent-minded.
