Qiao Ri would never believe he'd fallen for the tricks of two young men, or that it was just a word game.
He carefully put the antidote in his pocket, and Ning Yizhan and Qiu Hu didn't say anything when they saw his action.
"I can let you go, but you have to exchange Qiu Jing for him!" Ning Yizhan moved a few steps closer to Qiao Ri and negotiated with him in a "friendly" manner.
"How could that be? You're dreaming! Do you want to see how many people I brought?"
In terms of numbers, Ning Yizhan's men are no longer as numerous as Qiao Ri's.
But he remained fearless, saying, "Then we'll see whether your life or Qiu Jing's is more important! I'm afraid you won't even have the chance to take your medicine in the end."
"I'm afraid you won't even have the chance to take him back!"
"Then let's give it a try!"
Suddenly, a loud "bang" came from several kilometers away, coming from the direction of the laboratory.
Qiao Ri looked back and exclaimed, "That direction... how could it be?" Wasn't that the place where he had poured his heart and soul into all these years?
Ning Yizhan and Qiu Hu, who were standing nearby, were also surprised. "Is that direction the laboratory?"
Upon hearing the question, Qiao Ri answered them, "So, what exactly happened?"
He didn't have time to worry about whether Ning Yizhan would kill him; he ran towards his men, shouting, "Quick, go back!"
He needs to go back and see what happened!
Ning Yizhan did not lay a hand on him because he also wanted to know the whole story.
Qiu Hu was about to run back to the car when Ning Yizhan grabbed him, asking, "What are you doing?"
"I want to go see too, my dad's still inside!" Qiu Hu tried to pull his hand away, but he held it back. "Let's go together!"
They never expected the explosion to happen; it was completely unexpected. They watched as plumes of black smoke continued to rise into the sky in the distance.
They ordered a car to take Zhao Yan'er and Zhao Shi back, but Zhao Shi was extremely unwilling. He had also heard the explosion and wanted to go with Qiu Hu to see what was happening, but Qiu Hu refused.
They still treated him like a child! So he could only leave with his mother first!
Ning Yizhan drove her there himself, without taking anyone else.
When they arrived, the place was already crowded with people. Sure enough, the laboratory had exploded. Judging from the extent of the explosion, the entire laboratory was probably destroyed.
The staff inside were still desperately trying to escape, and some of them collapsed on the ground, unsure whether they were unconscious or dead.
Qiao Ri grabbed someone and asked, "Where's Qiu Jing?"
"Dr. Qiu? I don't know him. He's in the innermost lab, and I doubt he'll ever come out!" the man said hurriedly when he was stopped.
"Hahaha, Qiu Jing, you're dead?"
"It seems the explosion occurred in the laboratory where Dr. Qiu was!" said another person who came out of there.
"Then how did you escape?"
"We were on the outside, not inside. Dr. Qiu kicked us all out!"
Qiao Ri roughly learned the truth from them, and felt a jolt in his head. He couldn't help but shout angrily, "It seems that Qiu Jing did it on purpose. He wanted to ruin all my hard work over the years. He really deserves to die!"
After he finished speaking, he felt his head start to hurt, and the pain got worse and worse. It was not only painful, but it felt like there were many insects crawling inside his head. Was he going to die?
He then remembered the antidote he had obtained from Qiu Hu, but before he could verify whether it was truly the antidote, he could not use it.
But his head started to ache more and more, so much so that it felt like it was going to explode. He crouched down on the ground, clutching his head, hoping to lessen the pain, but it didn't work. He vaguely heard someone calling him, but he couldn't tell if they were calling him "sir" or "master."
Oh right, it was also a remedy. He took out the bottle of medicine from another pocket, took out two pills, and swallowed them whole.
But it didn't work. The medicine usually takes effect quickly, but what's wrong this time? Why isn't it working? Damn it, it seems to be getting more and more painful, and my consciousness is starting to blur.
"Master, master, what's wrong? Quick, someone, get a doctor!"
Most of those who escaped from inside were doctors. One of them went up to him, examined him, and exclaimed in alarm, "Sir, this is poisoning! But I've never seen this kind of poison before."
Another doctor stepped forward and said the same thing as the first doctor.
After regaining his senses for a while, Qiao Ri took out the antidote he had obtained from Qiu Hu from his pocket, showed it to the doctors, and asked in a low voice, "Let's see if this packet will work!"
The doctors examined the medicine repeatedly, and some even tested it on themselves, but the results were all negative. "There shouldn't be any problems, except for two of the herbs that we've never seen before and don't know what they are."
There shouldn't be any problem? Probably! What use are these people?!
Suddenly, Qiao Ri's head started to hurt again, this time even more than before. He was in so much pain that he rolled on the ground, completely losing the prestige and domineering presence of the head of the Colin family, and looking more like someone who was just trying to survive.
His assistants, unable to bear the sight, tried to help Qiao Ri up, but he broke free as soon as they touched him. They could only look at the people in the lab and ask, "Don't you have any tranquilizers or painkillers?"
"But it was all inside! It's all burned to ashes!"
"The antidote! That packet of antidote!" Qiao Ri finally succumbed to the pain.
"Master, that packet of antidote... I don't know if it's real or fake!" his assistant said.
"I can't worry about that now, quick! The antidote!" Qiao Ri reached out and grabbed the packet of antidote, then poured it into his mouth.
Soon, his pain seemed to disappear, and he sat on the ground. "It seems that packet of antidote was real!"
"That's good, that's good," his assistant said excitedly, seeing that he seemed to be alright.
Qiao Ri tried to stand up, but as soon as he did, blood spurted from his mouth, and he passed out.
One of the doctors stepped forward to check, "Sir, he... he's not breathing!"
The doctors behind them went forward and, sure enough, the patient had stopped breathing.
"How is this possible! Hurry and save them!"
"He really stopped breathing, there's no way to save him, and the poison in his body hasn't been neutralized."
"A bunch of useless trash," Qiao Ri's assistant pulled out a gun and shot one of the doctors in the head.
But after killing someone, they don't know what to do next!
In a car not far away, Ning Yizhan and Qiu Hu took in everything. "Qiao Ri is dead?"
Qiu Hu hasn't accepted these facts yet, so is her father inside? Ning Yizhan asked again.
"So that packet wasn't the antidote?" Ning Yizhan asked.
“I also thought it was the antidote. My dad gave it to me the day before, telling me to be wary of Qiao Ri and to exchange this packet of medicine with him if all else fails,” Qiu Hu replied. “But my dad is inside. Could it be that he…”
"Heh, I don't think so now. Let's go! The Colin family, I'll have someone pack up!" After that, Ning Yizhan made a phone call and left with Qiu Hu.
