Is there really a problem with Chapter 981?
Xiao Xiao looked at Qiao Xing cautiously, afraid that she would refuse.
Qiao Xing smiled and said, "Thank you, then I'll accept it."
Xiao Xiao nodded excitedly, "Thank you, Miss Qiao, for not minding!"
After she left, Qiao Xing looked at the pastries in her hand, then glanced at Xiao Xiao's retreating figure, feeling a mix of emotions she couldn't quite describe.
What are you doing standing here?
When Qin Ce came out of the ward, he saw Qiao Xing standing there in a daze.
He looked at what Qiao Xing was holding and asked, "What is this?"
Qiao Xing said, "Xiao Xiao gave it to me. She said it was a snack she made especially for me."
Qin Ce narrowed his eyes. "She gave it to you?"
"Yes, what's the problem?"
Qin Ce didn't say anything, but simply took the item from Qiao Xing's hand.
"Let me see it first."
Qiao Xing asked in confusion, "What's wrong? Don't you dislike sweets?"
Qiao Xing thought Qin Ce had changed his taste and suddenly wanted to eat sweets.
Qin Ce, however, said, "Be wary of others."
"ah?"
Qiao Xing was taken aback. "You suspect there's something wrong with this pastry?"
Qiao Xing thought that Xiao Xiao gave her this pastry simply to curry favor.
She could see Xiaoxiao's feelings for Qin Ce, so she understood why she did what she did.
But Qiao Xing never imagined that Xiao Xiao would have any other bad intentions.
Qin Ce didn't say much, but simply told Qiao Xing, "You go in and keep Grandpa company first, I'll be back in a bit."
Qin Ce said he would be back in a while, but Qiao Xing didn't see him all night.
When Qiao Xing returned from the hospital, she called Qin Ce. Qin Ce didn't answer.
Qiao Xing didn't think much of it and went straight back.
It wasn't until late at night, when Qiao Xing was almost ready to go to sleep, that Qin Ce returned.
Qiao Xing rubbed her sleepy eyes and asked him, "Why are you so late? You didn't answer my calls."
Qin Ce explained, "I was called away by Tang Xi at the last minute and didn't have time to tell you. I've been busy until now, and my phone died. I'm sorry to have worried you."
Qiao Xing wasn't worried about Qin Ce; she was just preoccupied with what happened during the day and wanted to ask him about it.
But before she could ask about it, Qin Ce told her something else.
“I remember telling you before about the new drugs and technologies developed by the S&C expert team.”
Qiao Xing nodded. "Yes, isn't it too risky for you? You're still in the clinical trial phase. Why are you suddenly bringing this up?"
"Tang Xi came to me today to talk about this matter. Tang Xi has cooperated with the higher-ups before. The digital monitoring project was launched into the market through his connections. Although the clinical trials of the drugs and treatment technologies we developed were very successful, they have not been approved by the higher-ups and still cannot be used in major hospitals."
Having skills but no place to use them is of little use.
Qin Ce thought that as long as this technology could be successfully applied to the medical field and gain external recognition, then the treatment time for Grandpa Qin's condition could be greatly shortened.
Since most of the Tang family's businesses are related to medicine, he wanted to make this connection so that if Qin Ce succeeded, they could become the first group in the capital to master this technology and successfully apply it to medicine.
For Tang Xi and his family, the profits would be considerable.
Qiao Xing listened attentively to what Qin Ce said, "So you agreed?"
Qin Ce nodded. "I agree. I've thought about it. The sooner the better. On the one hand, the technology we developed is specifically for malignant tumors. This technology has largely overcome the difficulties that medicine previously faced in treating tumors. On the other hand, it can also convince the outside world that S&C has this capability and make them trust us."
"But you said before that this technology wouldn't be very effective for Grandpa's condition. If we're in such a hurry now, won't something bad happen?"
Qiao Xing didn't understand medical matters, but no matter what, it was related to human life.
Although Qin Ce's original intention was good, once risks arise, they are uncontrollable.
Qin Ce had previously paid attention to this matter, hoping to create an opportunity for his grandfather.
However, Grandpa Qin's illness is a chronic disease, which is quite different from a rapidly spreading disease like a tumor.
Therefore, Qiao Xing wanted to play it safe in this matter.
But Qin Ce said, "This technology has been under development for more than two years now. Apart from lacking an opportunity, there won't be any other problems. Don't worry."
Hearing him say that, Qiao Xing knew he knew what he was doing and didn't say anything more.
After Qin Ce finished speaking, he suddenly asked Qiao Xing, "Has Shen Boyan contacted you in the past two days?"
Qiao Xing was taken aback. "No, why are you suddenly asking about him?"
Qin Ce shook his head and said, "It's nothing, I was just asking."
Today, I heard from my team that someone contacted them by phone.
The person didn't say who they were, but simply inquired about the new drug.
Due to confidentiality requirements, the experts did not provide any information, and the person simply hung up the phone without saying anything.
When the expert team told Qin Ce about this, they were still very puzzled.
Their team has always maintained a high degree of secrecy. Apart from internal staff, only Qin Ce can directly contact them and meet with them.
So when such a strange call came in, the team was very surprised.
The first thing Qin Ce thought of when he learned of this was Shen Boyan.
He knew that Shen Congyao had just undergone stomach cancer surgery a few days ago.
Although it was cancer, this surgery has brought his condition under control within a benign range.
If Qin Ce wasn't mistaken, Shen Boyan's efforts to contact the expert team were likely because he was worried that Shen Congyao's condition might worsen and wanted to use the new drug they had developed to treat Shen Congyao.
But this was just Qin Ce's own idea.
It might not be Shen Boyan, because if he really had such thoughts, Qin Ce felt he would contact Qiao Xing first.
Qiao Xing said that Shen Boyan had not contacted him, but that was probably just Qin Ce overthinking things.
After talking to Qin Ce for a while, Qiao Xing forgot about the question she had initially wanted to ask him.
When Qin Ce finished showering and got into bed to rest, Qiao Xing remembered to ask him.
"Did you have the pastry that Xiaoxiao gave me checked? Is there really a problem with it?"
Qin Ce paused, then said to her, "No problem."
"That……"
Qin Ce said bluntly, "Regardless of whether there is a problem or not, she can no longer take care of Grandpa. I will have the hospital arrange someone else."
Qiao Xing asked in surprise, "Why so suddenly?"
