Who says bad guys are inhuman? It's just that the world has too much prejudice against them. Humans are made of flesh and blood, how could they all be so cruel?

Day after day, the person in the bed showed no signs of waking up, remaining in the same state every day.

This isn't exactly good news, but it's not bad news either; at least he hasn't gotten worse because of the toxins.

The once energetic poisoners now stared at the data in their hands with exhausted expressions, their brows furrowed so deeply they could trap a fly. They seemed to be able to see something extraordinary in the information they were looking at.

They've worked so hard for so long, how come the person in the bed is still like this?

Looking at the data in their hands now, it seems that there is no change from the beginning, so all their efforts these days have been in vain?

The more these drug addicts thought about it, the more they felt a profound sense of powerlessness. This was the outcome they could least accept; even the slightest possible result would have been different.

Qi Jiu sat to the side, not in a hurry to speak, but just holding the documents in her hands, her knuckles turning white, as if she was also somewhat dissatisfied with the result.

As she turned the pages of documents, she suddenly seemed to see something, and her body involuntarily began to sit up straight.

Aman, who was standing next to her, looked at her current actions with some confusion and slid her chair over to her side. Following her gaze, she quickly noticed the difference.

"How come I didn't notice it just now? The last value actually changed! It's just that the daily changes are small, so it was almost overlooked."

These words caused an uproar among all the drug addicts present. Before long, the conference table was filled with the sounds of documents being flipped through.

As they looked at the last page of the numerical report, a smile finally appeared on their solemn faces.

"How come I didn't notice it before? Although the change in value is small, it's still there! It seems our efforts haven't been in vain!"

The girl narrowed her eyes as she looked at the numbers on the paper. "Perhaps, we can start from this direction."

As soon as she finished speaking, she stood up abruptly and rushed straight outside.

Seeing her actions, the other drug users behind her couldn't sit still any longer and followed her into the lab. The discovery was so sudden that all the drug users were both excited and nervous.

Soon, everyone was fully engaged in their work.

Time passed by, and by the time they stopped working, the sky outside had unknowingly darkened.

Kensa looked at the liquid in his hand and the equipment being adjusted beside him, his face showing some fatigue. "It seems our approach is correct. For now, it seems this is the only way."

As he spoke, he turned to look at Qi Jiu beside him.

Actually, finding even a clue is already quite an achievement. However, the only drawback is that this method takes too long, requiring medication to gradually change the toxin levels in Qi Silin's body.

This process requires a lot of patience, and I don't know if Qi Jiu can accept this method.

The girl looked at the potion in her hand and pursed her lips.

"For now, this is the only way. It may take a long time, but I can wait." As long as there is hope, I'm willing to do anything, let alone wait.

It's just waiting for him to wake up, using time to wait for him to wake up, and this result is already very worthwhile.

Seeing the gradual improvement in her expression, Kensa understood that their time here had not been wasted.

After leaving the laboratory, everyone dragged their tired bodies toward their rooms, except for Qi Jiu, who saw that familiar figure at the door.

"Xiu Rui".

The man at the front heard the call and quickly turned around.

Looking at his travel-worn appearance, still wearing his suit, Qi Jiu could tell that he had squeezed in time to come.

However, she still found it hard to say what this guy's true feelings were.

"Qiqi".

He glanced at the lab she had just left, and pursed his lips. "How is he? Has he improved? How is he now?"

Actually, he shouldn't have asked such a question. After all, from the perspective of his rival in love, he should have hoped that Qi Silin wouldn't wake up.

But he discovered that... he didn't have that mindset at all.

Even when she saw the worry in Qi Jiu's eyes for Qi Silin, she wanted to make Qi Silin sit up in bed immediately, then smile and say, "Qi Qi, I'm fine."

As long as Qi Jiu is happy, none of these things matter anymore.

"He's improved, though not significantly." As she spoke, the girl glanced subconsciously at Qi Silin's room, which made Xiu Rui's face full of envy.

"If that's the case, then that's for the best."

The conversation seemed to have ended there, the air suddenly became quiet, and the atmosphere became somewhat awkward.

Qi Jiu glanced at Ning Lan, who was standing behind Xiu Rui, and pursed her lips. "Come to my office, it's getting late and a bit chilly outside."

With that, she turned around directly, not giving the two people behind her a chance to refuse.

Inside the office, she sat in the main seat, watching the two people enter one after the other. A faint smile appeared on her lips as she gently raised her chin and nodded at the sofa not far away.

"Please sit down."

Xiu Rui sat down naturally, but Ning Lan behind him didn't seem to have any intention of moving, a scene that amused the girl.

"You sit down too."

Ninglan was taken aback, her first reaction being to look at Xiu Rui beside her. This reaction made the girl chuckle and lick her back teeth. "What? You're not listening to me anymore?"

It wasn't like this before.

Hearing this, Ninglan stopped worrying about whether Xiu Rui would give way or not, and simply sat down next to him, smiling at the girl.

Okay, it's the same familiar recipe.

It was no longer work time, and Qi Jiu didn't want to talk about work. Instead, she asked about what had happened before.

As time passed, we had talked about almost everything we needed to talk about.

As she was about to leave, the girl pursed her lips. "Xiu Rui, I know exactly what you're thinking."

She's not stupid; how could she not see through all the previous details?

Feelings cannot be hidden; there will always be some clues. Just like when you're next to a fire, can you not feel the warmth of the fire? The answer is of course.

The same principle applies here, so no matter how much Xiu Rui tried to hide his feelings for her, she could still sense them.

The sudden change of topic startled Xiu Rui, who looked at Qi Jiu with obvious panic on her face.
