Chapter 535 The flames of war have not yet subsided, and another crisis has arrived.
"I said I wouldn't leave without saying goodbye."
Wen Ni knew what he was thinking. She bent down, lifted his chin with her hand, and smoothed away the wrinkles between his brows with her fingertips, her tone serious.
"I'll let you know as soon as I go wherever I'm going. But you have to promise me that no matter what happens in the future, you won't have to face it all alone!"
"Okay." He pursed his lips. "I promise you."
"Good boy." Wen Ni smiled and lowered her head to place a gentle kiss on his forehead!
But then a blush appeared on Lu Jinye's cheeks! It went all the way down to the roots of his neck?
He seemed to realize his lapse in composure, and quickly turned his face away, clenching his fist and pressing it to his lips to hide his heart-stirring shyness!
"Him? And he's supposed to be well-behaved?" Su Li, who had been holding back, couldn't hold back any longer. He took off his glasses and started to berate, "Arms, legs, chest, back, double stitches, do you know how many stitches I used? My hands were cramping from all the stitching! And yet, before the anesthesia had even completely worn off, he wanted to get up from the operating table and come find you!"
“Su Li.” Lu Jinye turned around and glared at him.
"Why are you calling my name? You're in a wheelchair now, how can you control my mouth?" Su Li was truly at her wit's end. "Even if the dog food is delicious, this dog food is being thrown around like there's no tomorrow! Wen Ni, let me tell you, he really had a close call with the King of Hell this time! It's like he got his life back for free! You can try to persuade him, his body is patched up and tattered, if he keeps messing around like this, even if I burned a hundred million ghost money for my teacher and Hua Tuo, I still wouldn't be able to get half a life back..."
Before Su Li could finish her rant, Baron covered her mouth with one hand and forcibly dragged her away.
"Hey, Barron, I wasn't talking about you, was I? Your arm's already half broken, and you're still messing around with him..."
The noisy sounds faded into the distance.
Wen Ni looked at Lu Jinye again, her face filled with helplessness!
“Teacher Su Li is right. Your body can’t be left like this any longer. Wait a little longer, then go back with him and rest properly.”
"And what about you?" The blush on Lu Jinye's face gradually faded, and he looked up into Wen Ni's eyes. "Are you going back to the lab?"
"Yes, I must complete the research on the special medicine as soon as possible, as Captain Lu has given me this task." Wen Ni nodded, and when she mentioned serious matters, she couldn't help but tighten her expression. "This matter may be more serious than we thought. We must be prepared for both possibilities. At least before Myanmar declares war on China, the domestic epidemic must end. Otherwise, internal and external troubles will only greatly reduce our combat effectiveness!"
“But I’m worried that the Godfather’s men will take this opportunity to attack you.” Lu Jinye didn’t look away for a second. “In Gotham City, Caesar Perth repeatedly prevented me from coming to Hong Kong to find you. Even though you’re not his target this time, I’m still worried that they might arrange for someone else to threaten your safety.”
In particular, Wen Ni is now in charge of the most critical research project!
“I understand your concerns, but thankfully, my research results are coming out soon. Give me two more days, and I will leave here in two days.”
"If that's the case, then good. It just so happens that my injury prevents me from traveling long distances, so I'll stay here and keep you company."
“Okay!” Wen Ni knew that she could never go against him on this kind of thing.
Their hands, clasped together, gradually tightened their interlocked fingers.
"I'm waiting for you, Wen Ni."
"Um!"
Everything has been arranged for the best.
Wen Ni needed to hurry back to the lab to continue her research.
I watched her hurried departure.
Lu Jinye's expression gradually turned serious, and he raised his hand to beckon Baron!
"What's wrong, Mr. Lu?"
"Have someone check the background of the man in the photo that was sent to my email before."
"Does Master Lu think there's something wrong with him?"
"It's hard to say, you investigate first." Lu Jinye's tone was deep. "Also, send more people to the vicinity of the school to keep a close watch on the medical building. Report any suspicious activity to me immediately!"
“Yes, Mr. Lu,” Baron replied calmly.
The chaotic night is finally over.
The sun has just risen, illuminating the campus paths.
When Wen Ni returned to the medical building, she saw Dr. Li Shiyan sitting alone on the steps getting some fresh air.
Upon seeing Wen Ni return, he quickly put on his protective mask and went to greet her!
"Wen Ni, you're back."
"Dr. Li, how was yesterday? Were there many infected people?"
"It's alright, but we had a few critically ill patients taken to the hospital by ambulance." After answering, Li Shiyan asked, "I heard they said that your superiors had an urgent mission for you. Is everything resolved now?"
"Yes, it's all taken care of."
Wen Ni didn't say much, and pushed open the door to enter the lobby of the medical building.
Li Shiyan followed him in.
"You're going back to the lab already? You haven't slept all night, aren't you going to eat something and rest for a while?"
"I'm not tired."
As Wen Ni spoke, she paused in her forward steps, turned around, and looked at Li Shiyan with a suspicious gaze. "But speaking of which, Dr. Li, how did you know I didn't sleep all night?"
"Your superiors were looking for you, and you didn't come home all night. You must have been busy all night, right?" Li Shiyan answered calmly, his eyes full of worry. "When I saw that you hadn't come home all night, I asked the nanny to leave you some breakfast in advance. She left it by the lab window. Remember to take it in and eat it. After all, your health is the most important thing for everyone right now!"
"I see, thank you, Dr. Li." Wen Ni thought she might be overreacting, nodded, and then suddenly remembered, "By the way, Dr. Li, how is Qin Yuan?"
"Don't worry, your friend should be fine. He's unlikely to suffer a relapse, just a bit weak and needs plenty of sleep and rest to recover." Li Shiyan smiled slightly. "He's probably still asleep. Do you want to go see him?"
"No need, I'm relieved that he's alright. Thank you for taking care of him these past few days."
"We've all been through thick and thin together, so there's no need to be so polite."
Li Shiyan waved his hand, stopped, watched Wen Ni go up to the second floor, and then turned around and went back to his office.
Second-floor laboratory
Wen Ni thoroughly disinfected herself from head to toe, quickly ate a couple of bites of the food Li Shiyan had left for her, changed into a new protective suit, and plunged into the laboratory, throwing herself wholeheartedly into her research without stopping!
The situation both domestically and internationally is dire. She has no time to waste, China has no time to wait any longer, and every critically ill patient infected with the virus has very little time left to wait.
She must speed things up, get the research results, and get the pandemic over quickly!
Working day and night is the ultimate expression of dedication.
"Cough cough!"
Halfway through the crucial experiment, Wen Ni suddenly felt an unbearable itch in her trachea and couldn't help but cough twice. Then, a burning sensation spread throughout her chest!
The hand holding the experimental equipment suddenly froze.
She slowly raised her head and looked at her pale face reflected in the mirror opposite her...
