My autobiography is definitely not a tragedy!-Chapter 751 - 458 The Dowry

"Huh?" Lin Haitang was startled by the somewhat abrupt question.

"Oh, I was just curious, after all, intelligence is something that can often be inherited," Meng Lang said with a chuckle.

Whether it was the medical technology of the Biology Department or the Overclocking Scripture of the Martial Arts Department, most of the future technologies in Meng Lang’s hands came from Xiao Yu.

As the chief scientist, Xiao Yu’s talent in this area had already withstood the test of time.

Though his IQ had never been officially tested, he believed it was definitely over 160 without a doubt.

Medically, it is commonly believed that IQ is influenced by both genetics and environment.

However, as far as Meng Lang knew, Xiao Yu’s learning environment from a young age was anything but friendly.

With no family influences to nurture her, the fact that she could still exhibit such remarkable intelligence could only be described as a gift of extraordinary talent.

Of course, that wasn’t the real reason for Meng Lang’s curiosity about the Lin family.

If in the beginning, Meng Lang was merely puzzled about Lin Haitang’s identity as the "writer,"

then as Xiao Yu began to reveal a series of exceptional talents, he started to become suspicious of the entire Lin family...

How coincidental that right before he received the autobiography, the Lin sisters suddenly became his new neighbors, and from that moment on, their fates became incessantly intertwined.

The key point was... some of their "abilities" were of great help to him.

Everything seemed as if it had been designed in advance...

Ordinary people certainly couldn’t predict Xiao Yu’s talent, much less the development of their relationship.

But... what if it was the secretive courier "sender" behind the scenes?

As the previous owner of the autobiography, could he have already seen through his future, anticipated his predictions...

From the moment Meng Lang got the autobiography, the world had undoubtedly started on a different parallel path.

So, the "future" he was looking forward to, could it also be what the "sender" wished to see?

He didn’t believe someone would give away such a game-changing life cheat for free without wanting anything in return from him.

There’s a cause for everything.

If the person did it, there must be some special purpose.

Did they see something unique in his bones and chose him as the ultimate candidate for the autobiography?

Or did they want to use him to continue the "world line change" they hadn’t finished?

If it was the latter, then what roles did the Lin sisters play in the sender’s game?

Just looking at the identity, the Lin family, as the family of the "writer," seems to have some unknown connection with this autobiography...

"Hmm... not really, though we’ve had some scholars in our ancestry, I haven’t heard of any particularly outstanding figures, let alone geniuses..."

Lin Haitang, naturally unaware of Meng Lang’s internal queries, thought for a moment and then shook her head.

"So... what about Xiao Yu’s parents?" Meng Lang wanted to blurt out.

But looking at Xiao Yu, he finally held back.

After all, it involved a painful childhood memory, and he didn’t have the heart to reopen that wound in front of Xiao Yu.

"How can you say that? Haitang, you were also excellent in your studies in high school, and even in sports, you were versatile; even I was captivated by you," Yan Weiwei interjected at that moment.

"Oh?" Meng Lang looked thoughtfully at Lin Haitang.

"You’re exaggerating. I was just a normal, good student. If I were really a genius, I wouldn’t have spent so long feeling nothing from that secret manual."

"Maybe it’s just not your specialty?"

"I don’t want to talk to you," Lin Haitang shot Yan Weiwei a look, then immediately turned her head to Xiao Yu.

"Xiao Yu, even though it seems there’s no serious side effect for now, let’s still be cautious, and don’t be reckless again next time.

Um... you mustn’t use that ability for more than three minutes at a time, got it?"

"Oh! I got it," Xiao Yu nodded obediently, knowing her sister was concerned about her.

"Sigh! Unity of Heaven and Man... others can’t even dream of it for a second, yet someone is being timed not to exceed it..." Yan Weiwei let out another sigh.

Then, as if suddenly remembering something.

"Right, Xiao Yu, you didn’t spend the whole three minutes daydreaming, did you? That would be such a waste!"

At this, Xiao Yu couldn’t help but grin.

"Hehe! Of course not, I flipped through two books, and I also went over the knowledge in my head. I found that many areas I didn’t understand before have become very clear. Next, I plan to start self-studying high school content."

The three of them: "..."

You’re only seven years old! Is this the pace of attending college at ten and becoming a PhD at thirteen?

They had seen such prodigies in the news, but they had never expected one to emerge right by their side...

The image of Xiao Yu "quantum reading" as torrents of characters and symbols swarmed into her brain flashed in everyone’s mind...

"By the way, Uncle, can I borrow books to read from your study in the future?" Xiao Yu suddenly asked.

"Eh? What books do you want to borrow?"

"Medicine!"

The three of them paused for a moment.

"Xiao Yu, you really want to study medicine..." Yan Weiwei muttered.

"Yes!" Xiao Yu nodded decisively.

"I only learned recently that our bodies themselves are a treasure trove. Although I definitely can’t compete with Uncle in this area, I will try my best to carry on Uncle’s ’Overclocking’ series!"

Meng Lang was astonished.

So... did I actually set Xiao Yu on the right path in life?

"Haha! Of course, no problem! Take your pick! Read whichever one you want, and if it’s not enough, I’ll buy more later!" Meng Lang waved his hand, clearly eager for it.

"Ah! Such a good talent, giving up martial arts for literature..." Yan Weiwei was still a bit dissatisfied.

"Heh! Short-sighted, huh? With Xiao Yu learning martial arts, the world will just have one more expert. But with literature, given Xiao Yu’s talent, sooner or later he’ll create ’Overclocking Scripture 3.0’, or even 4.0. Then, will you still worry about not reaching the state of ’Unity of Heaven and Man’?"

Huh? That makes a lot of sense!

"Studying literature is great! Xiao Yu’s business is my business! I must contribute to buying books! Xiao Yu, is there anything else you need? Don’t worry, your Sister Weiwei will definitely support you with all her strength!"

"Hehe!"

See, isn’t that a united front?

Taking advantage of Yan Weiwei’s effort to ingratiate herself with Xiao Yu, Meng Lang turned and winked at Lin Haitang.

Lin Haitang: "..."

...

After dinner, 1102.

"What do you want to talk about?"

"Of course, it’s about something serious, but the way you’re dressed, don’t you have some sort of misunderstanding about me?" Meng Lang looked at Lin Haitang sitting on the opposite sofa with a peculiar expression.

"Cough!" Lin Haitang tightened her long sleeve coat, "It’s nothing, your air conditioner is a bit cold."

"You knew my air conditioner was cold even before you arrived at my place?" Meng Lang said teasingly.

"Aren’t you going to talk about something serious? If not, I’m leaving."

"Right, right, right! Actually... I wanted to ask about your father..."

"Hmm?" Lin Haitang blinked slightly and frowned.

"Why bring him up all of a sudden?"

Because... he’s the prime suspect...

Meng Lang sighed to himself.

After much thought, if the "sender" really had anything to do with the Lin sisters...

The first person Meng Lang thought of was undoubtedly their mysterious "Mr. Lin"...

Although he had never met the man, from the bits and pieces mentioned by both Xiao Yu and Lin Haitang, it was clear Mr. Lin was a man "with a story."

It was said that he was once unremarkable, but suddenly became wealthy overnight in middle age.

What caught Meng Lang’s attention was something Lin Haitang once mentioned...

["My father made a lot of money before, and for a while, like you, he loved to buy loads of books to decorate the house, but he never touched most of them."]

Overnight wealth, a house full of decorative books...

Doesn’t it sound familiar?

Like Meng Lang, there may be many men "with a story."

To meet these two coincidences at the same time... one cannot say there absolutely aren’t others in the world.

But... what if this person is the father of the Lin sisters?

Linking the three coincidences together, Meng Lang found it hard not to be suspicious!

With that, Mr. Lin undoubtedly became the main suspect!

And if one were to boldly speculate that this person was indeed that mysterious "sender"...

Why would he indulge in drinking?

Could it be because business failed? No! The owner of the autobiography couldn’t be that fragile!

And it was even less likely that his business failed!

That left only one possibility...

Could it be that he was using alcohol to numb his nervous system, hoping to slow the onset of illness?!

Meng Lang’s eyes sparkled with a hint of light, as if he had found that increasingly clear thread in the mist!

As for why the proud owner of the autobiography ended up alienated and dying alone...

For someone seriously ill, even on the brink of "going mad" at any moment, to deliberately distance loved ones was not a lack of affection, but rather protection, the final act of tenderness...

In Meng Lang’s mind appeared the image of a grief-stricken father bearing pain alone, a figure of dignity...

A father’s love is like a mountain!

If that really was the case, then the reason he wished to pass the autobiography to him became clear...

Parents who love their children think far ahead...

Meng Lang looked tenderly at Lin Haitang.

"Don’t call him ’that person’; after all, he’s my future father-in-law!"

Lin Haitang: "..."

Yes, it’s possible that receiving the autobiography wasn’t due to any special talent of mine; it might simply be because the autobiography...

Is actually a "dowry"!
