“Drink the soup first. Gu San made it for you.” Ye Wangchuan blew on the chicken soup and handed it to her. His handsome face was calm as he said, “I don’t know this box, but I know the material it was made of. It’s polyethylene. This material is usually used on spacecraft or blast shields.”

Qiao Nian worriedly took the bowl with one hand. Coupled with the fact that she was holding the box in her left hand, it was even more inconvenient for her to take the bowl containing the chicken soup.

She released the box. Her lowered eyes were obviously a little solemn, making her look like she was deep in thought.

“Did such materials exist 20 years ago?” Qiao Nian asked him as she looked up.

Ye Wangchuan’s force in Beijing, the Ninth Branch, long held control of the rare earth business in Beijing and was extremely familiar with these rare materials.

Seeing that the girl seemed to care a lot about this box, he already knew that it might be the “thing” she took the risk to bring out of the Ji family.

Ye Wangchuan did not want to answer for a moment, but his deep eyes met the girl’s urgent gaze. His body disobediently and honestly placed the chicken soup back on the bedside table, and he slowly said, “20 years ago… It was very difficult! This is considered high-tech material. 20 years ago, human development in the aviation field was not as developed as it is now. These polymer materials are considered super protective materials and need high-tech enhancements. With the technology level 20 years ago… Such technology might have existed, but it must have been only in the hands of a few people.

“For example, some top geniuses in the First Research Institute.” Ye Wangchuan deeply looked at her and slowly came to a conclusion.

Qiao Nian was silent for a moment as she played with the box.

She knew that her mother was not an ordinary person. Otherwise, why would Xie Tingyun, who was known as a weaponsmith master, hold her hand and mention Ji Qing’s name to her again and again?

How could Feng Yu continue to investigate the cause of Ji Qing’s death for 20 years?

However, Qiao Nian did not expect Ji Qing to be even more of a genius than she had imagined!

She flipped the box. The contrast between her cold white hand and the color of the box was strong. Qiao Nian looked distracted as if thinking about something.

Ye Wangchuan was not in a hurry upon seeing that she was deep in thought. He simply pulled a chair and sat in front of her bed. Then, he picked up an apple and peeled it for her.

“Master Yu announced a scientific research result not long ago. The polyimide-nano mica compound membrane is also a polymer nanomaterial like this.

“This material has a common characteristic—externally applied forces can’t forcefully open it.’

Ye Wangchuan quickly peeled the apple, cut it into small pieces, and put them on a plate. He then took out a tissue paper, wiped his hands, and lazily looked at her. “Nian Nian, have you thought of how to open it?”

Qiao Nian turned the box and showed him the front, then expressionlessly said, “It needs a key. However, this lock is as difficult to open as the material you mentioned. It’s a Luban mechanism lock! You can’t open it unless you have a matching key.”

Ye Wangchuan saw the lock on the front of the box at a glance. It looked ordinary, and there were no traces of a mechanism lock.

However, since Qiao Nian said that it was a mechanism lock, it was definitely a legendary Luban mechanism lock that had long been lost. He rubbed the space between his eyebrows and looked at the girl with a headache. “Then what do you plan to do?”

Qiao Nian lowered her eyes and smiled, making her dark eyelashes look long and thick.

She casually said, . I think I have its key..”
