Chapter 414 Xia Yue puts on a show in front of Gu Chen

She was tied up and couldn't move her body, but she could move her head!

Xia Yue focused all her strength on her head, delivering a powerful headbutt that slammed into Gu Chen's head!

Caught off guard, Gu Chen hadn't expected Xia Yue to resort to underhanded tactics, and a bump instantly appeared on his head.

"Hiss—" Gu Chen gasped.

Xia Yue's head wasn't in much better shape either.

Forces are reciprocal, and a large bump appeared on her head as well.

"You hurt others a thousand times, but you hurt yourself a thousand times too. Why bother?" Gu Chen said, rubbing his head as he rummaged for ice packs in the refrigerator.

Finding that there was only one ice pack left, he endured the pain in his head, wrapped the ice pack in a towel, and placed it on Xia Yue's head.

Xia Yue's headache had lessened considerably, but she still didn't give Gu Chen a friendly look.

"You dare touch me? Once I recover, I'll make you a eunuch, so you can never have sex again!" Xia Yue threatened Gu Chen directly.

Gu Chen frowned slightly, deliberately touched Xia Yue's hand, and then quickly withdrew it.

"Fine, I touched you, so if you're so capable, you can turn me into a eunuch right now?" Gu Chen deliberately provoked Xia Yue.

Xia Yue, “…” She wanted to give this person another headbutt!

Fortunately, Gu Chen's lame jokes came to an end.

He focused on applying ice packs to Xia Yue's head, occasionally massaging and gently rubbing it.

In less than ten minutes, the bump on Xia Yue's head had shrunk considerably.

But the bump on his head became increasingly red and painful.

After he finished applying ice to Xia Yue, he used the remaining coolness of the ice pack to apply it to his own head.

Xia Yue could tell that Gu Chen still had some conscience, and he treated her first.

Her tone softened, and she said softly, "Senior brother, I really don't have any romantic feelings for you. Please don't force me, okay? In my heart, I've always considered you my brother."

Xia Yue had no choice but to act, otherwise she was genuinely afraid that Gu Chen would resort to force.

Although Gu Chen knew that Xia Yue might be acting, he was still buying it.

As long as Xia Yue treats him even slightly well, he'll eagerly act like her dog.

"Junior sister, I didn't mean to force you. I just haven't been with you for so long and wanted to hug you." Gu Chen's tone was filled with sadness.

Seeing that the other party's attitude had softened, Xia Yue knew that she had a chance, so she said again, "Then, senior brother, can you help me untie the rope? It hurts so much from being tied up, and there are marks on my skin. It's so uncomfortable to sleep in this position."

Gu Chen looked at Xia Yue, especially at the rope around her neck, which did indeed have red marks.

He was well aware of the organization's operating style.

If Xia Yue weren't still of some use, they would have tied her up more casually and cruelly, treating her like a prisoner.

"I can untie you, but don't cause any trouble," Gu Chen whispered a reminder.

"Don't worry, senior brother, I know you're the best~" Xia Yue praised with a smile.

Gu Chen felt very uncomfortable after hearing this.

When she was little, Xia Yue often said this to her.

But now, the two of them are no longer children.

Gu Chen quickly untied the ropes binding Xia Yue's body, but the ropes binding her hands remained.

"Senior brother, there's also a hand..." Xia Yue's voice was delicate, and she couldn't help but blink.

She felt that her acting skills had improved again, and that she could enter the entertainment industry in the future.

This time, Gu Chen refused to listen and said firmly, "Your hands cannot be untied. Your skills in poisoning and using golden needles are too great. I'm afraid you might murder your husband in the middle of the night."

"Heh—how could that be?" You're not my husband! Killing you would be doing a service to the people!

Xia Yue complained inwardly, but could only pretend to give up on her face.

"If you don't understand, then don't understand. Anyway, I'm in your hands, I won't run away." Xia Yue said softly, then changed the subject, "Senior brother, I'm very curious, your previous brain transplant surgeries were all unsuccessful, how come this one suddenly worked?"

"You want to know?"

"Yes!" Xia Yue readily admitted, "I'm also studying medicine, so it's normal to be curious about this."

Gu Chen smiled and said truthfully, "Actually, I have to thank you for this."

"Me?" Xia Yue's eyes widened, not understanding what this had to do with her.

Gu Chen continued, "I saw the data from your animal experiments with Ye Ya a few days ago. I discovered that adjusting the concentration of the KN extract to 99% and adding 1% liquid nitrogen would achieve perfect surgical conditions."

When you replaced the limbs of those small animals, you used 2% liquid nitrogen, 50% water, and 48% KN extract.

I made some improvements and found that water could be eliminated by further reducing the proportion of liquid nitrogen.

Xia Yue felt conflicted after hearing this.

She never expected that the experiments she conducted during her period of madness and revenge would have such an effect.

At that time, all she could think about was revenge.

In order to gain Ye Ya's trust, he devoted 100% of his effort to animal experiments.

Unexpectedly, it actually worked for the whole experiment.

And it is through such experiments that countless innocent people will be sacrificed in the future.

If the drug isn't caught this time, or if those in power find out about the surgery, it would be incredibly easy for them to get a brain transplant to fake death and continue living.

Xia Yue felt like she had become a sinner.

Gu Chen noticed Xia Yue's worry and said slowly, "This is a technology I discovered, it has nothing to do with you. Don't think too much about it, just stay by my side from now on."

"Reassured? How can I be at ease?" Xia Yue closed her eyes and took a deep breath.

She felt she couldn't continue acting.
