Mr. Fu’s health is indeed not very good. He used to be able to guide little Ning’an in painting, but now he has neither the energy nor the physical strength to keep up, so he simply introduced a few old friends over.

Then they discovered that Ning'an's talent for painting was not only in Chinese painting, she also learned oil painting very quickly.

"I have never seen such a talented child, Lao Fu. As long as she keeps painting, she will definitely become a top painter in the future."

The old man who said this has countless students, including some world-renowned painters. He is so sure of little Ning'an's talent, perhaps because of the relationship with Grandpa Fu, but more because little Ning'an's talent is indeed the best he has seen in recent years.

Speaking of this matter, Mr. Fu sighed and said, "I can't make the decision on this matter. If you really want her to learn, go talk to her mother."

"Who is her mother?"

"Fu Qian's wife is currently working at the 505 Institute."

The old man waited at the Fu family for a long time before Ning Zhi came to pick up little Ning An.

When Ning Zhi heard the other party say that he wanted little Ning'an to learn painting from him, either oil painting or Chinese painting, and let the child choose, her expression did not change at all. She just patted little Ning'an on the back gently and asked her what she thought.

Little Ning'an was silent, and the old woman couldn't help but speak, "The child doesn't understand. You are her mother, and you must want to do good for her..."

"But I won't decide her future in the name of doing it for her own good." Although Ning Zhi was smiling when she said this, her expression was firm.

The old man was stunned, obviously not expecting Ning Zhi to say such a thing.

"But it would be a waste if she didn't continue to study with such a talent."

"Let it be wasted," Ning Zhi smiled. She touched her daughter's hair and continued, "I don't mind her living an ordinary life. Everything is her own choice."

The old man didn't understand, because in his opinion, letting Ning'an continue to learn painting and cultivating her to become a talent was the greatest respect for her talent.

Ning Zhi shook her head. "I don't think so. The greatest respect is not to cultivate her deliberately, but to let her do what she likes. She can become a painter in the future, or choose a scientific researcher or other professions. The talent is hers, but if we can't restrain her, it would be better to waste it."

The old man felt that he had nothing to say, but he did not give up, because Ning Zhi said to let little Ning'an make his own decision. He came to teach little Ning'an every day during this period and just needed to ask the child more questions.

The old man had a good idea, but little Ning'an learned from her mother and didn't play by the rules at all, which made the old man very helpless.

In the end, the old man had to give up. Although he still taught little Ning'an to paint, he no longer mentioned the matter frequently.

The year-end report meeting arrived as scheduled, and Ye Xinran calmly picked up the speech and went on stage.

The speech was written by Ning Zhi, and it was very well written, but it was impossible for her to go up and speak, she couldn't say a word.

The other groups were more or less aware of Ning Zhi's team's reputation for social phobia, so they were not too surprised to see Ye Xinran show up.

After the report meeting was the annual meeting of the institute. Some of the less busy projects had a few programs. As for Ning Zhi and the others, that was impossible. They just wanted to eat, drink and watch the programs.

You can bring your family to the annual meeting. Each person has two places. If you have two children in your family, you can submit a report to apply.

Ning Zhi sent a message to Fu Qian, asking him if he was free, after all, his company's annual meeting was also in the next few days.

Fu Qian called directly, "Do you need to prepare anything? By the way, can you invite Miss Ning to attend our company's annual meeting?"

Ning Zhi raised her eyebrows slightly, "I can think about it."

"In that case, I'll have to think about it too," Fu Qian said deliberately, but he laughed right after he finished. Ning Zhi also laughed out loud, "Dear Mr. Fu, five full seconds have passed now, have you thought about it?"

"Well, I've thought about it. I'll be there on time with my daughter."

On the day of the annual meeting, Ning Zhi first went to the entrance of the research institute to confirm the identity information of Fu Qian and Xiao Ning'an, and then took the two of them in after completing the registration.

In order to prevent illegal persons from sneaking in, the identity information of all outsiders attending the annual meeting, that is, the family members of each researcher, must be reported in advance and will only be allowed in after multiple rounds of review.

Moreover, the annual meeting was held in the institute's newly built auditorium, not far to the right of the entrance, completely eliminating the possibility of them entering the core area.

Ning Zhi and his companions walked in, and a staff member from the logistics department who was responsible for reception pointed out their location and indicated that all the people working on their project were there.

The little girl adopted by Yang Shu saw little Ning An for the first time, and her eyes immediately lit up.

However, both little girls were socially anxious, and little Ning An was an autistic child, so when the two little girls met they only dared to look at each other cautiously, and then quickly hid behind their mothers.

They tested each other for a long time, and only sat together when the annual meeting performance was about to begin and communicated in a low voice. Of course, it was Yang Shu's daughter who did most of the talking, and little Ning An listened quietly.

The programs prepared by colleagues were very exciting, and the leaders did not take up too much time speaking, they just said a few words and then left.

The annual meeting ended successfully. Ning Zhi and Fu Qian held little Ning An's hands on each side and left the institute.

But before leaving, the two girls made an appointment to go out and play in a few days.

Ning Zhi was very happy to see her daughter waving goodbye to the other person. An An finally made her first friend.

On the way home, Ning An took the initiative to tell Ning Zhi and Fu Qian what she had agreed to do with her friends.

"Go play card drawing."

Hearing the word "draw card", Fu Qian couldn't help laughing, "An An, do you know? Mom is a master at drawing cards."

Little Ning'an immediately turned to look at Ning Zhi, his eyes sparkling and full of anticipation.

Ning Zhi coughed lightly, "It's okay, I just might have been a little bit luckier."

"Mom wants to go with us!"

Ning Zhi thought about what had happened in recent days and found that apart from attending Fu Qian's company's annual meeting, she had no other important things to do, so she nodded and agreed.

The family of three returned home. Little Ning An has recently learned to wash himself. His movements and expression are very serious, which makes his mother Ning Zhi's heart melt.

Apart from the fact that he is still rarely willing to communicate with others, little Ning'an's behavior is no different from that of an ordinary child.

On the second day after the annual meeting, Ning Zhi took little Ning An for a follow-up visit.

The doctor was surprised to find that little Ning'an's condition was actually improving.

Ning Zhi took a lot of effort to barely control her excitement. She asked the doctor several questions in succession. After confirming the results, she calmed down a little, but she still couldn't help but hugged her daughter tightly.

Fortunately, they did it. (End of this chapter)
