Chapter 355 A huge overseas order came knocking on her door; she was about to make a fortune!
"Build it! We must build it!"
Director Liao is now Su Yue's number one supporter.
"I'll ask the logistics department for the land, and I'll find a way to get the equipment from the provincial capital! Dr. Su, as long as you can manufacture this drug, our hospital will support you even if it means selling everything we own!"
Su Yue glanced at Gu Beichen.
Gu Beichen leaned back in his chair, arms crossed, a barely perceptible smile playing on his lips.
The meaning is clear: See, I told you you could do it.
Su Yue's heart skipped a beat.
This might be an opportunity.
It's not just about treating and saving lives, but also about expanding the "blue ocean" from daily chemical skincare to the real field of biomedicine.
That's the real exorbitant profit, and the real moat.
“Okay.” Su Yue propped herself up and sat up, no longer pretending to be weak. “Since everyone trusts me so much, let’s go all out.”
She looked at Director Liao.
"Besides influenza complicated by pneumonia, I also want to apply for clinical trials to treat war trauma infections. I have a way to save the legs of those wounded soldiers with rotting flesh, suppuration, and amputations."
The ward fell silent instantly.
All the doctors' eyes lit up.
Combat trauma infections are one of the biggest challenges for military hospitals.
If Su Yue can even solve this...
Gu Beichen looked at the woman sitting on the hospital bed, her face pale but her expression gesturing wildly, and that restlessness in his heart surged up again.
This woman is a natural radiant being.
The rain stopped, but the sky remained as gloomy as an overturned iron pot, making it hard to breathe.
Su Yue had a good constitution and was nourished by the spiritual spring water, so she recovered quickly after the fever subsided.
The news that Tie Dan was out of danger and transferred to a regular ward was like a shot in the arm, easing the tension in the entire military compound.
Gu Beichen took Su Yue home.
I didn't sleep well.
Three o'clock in the morning.
The piercing alarm shattered the night sky without warning.
"Waaah—waaah—"
Level 1 combat readiness alert.
Su Yue suddenly opened her eyes, only to find the bed beside her empty.
In the darkness, Gu Beichen was getting dressed.
His movements were astonishingly fast: he fastened his belt, put on his military boots, and holstered the gleaming Type 54 pistol.
Every movement carried a chilling aura, an instinct etched into their very bones.
"What's wrong?" Su Yue sat up and turned on the bedside lamp.
The dim lighting illuminated Gu Beichen's taut jawline.
"Emergency mission." Gu Beichen grabbed his military cap from the coat hanger, strode to the bedside, and pressed his forehead firmly against hers. "Stay home, don't go anywhere. If..."
He paused for a moment, not saying the second half of his sentence.
"If only..." Su Yue threw back the covers and got out of bed, her bare feet touching the floor, a chill creeping up her spine. "Where to?"
"Outer sea. Radar station number three."
Gu Beichen didn't hide it from her.
Radar Station No. 3. It was an outpost built on an isolated island, the eye of the motherland's southern gate.
"The weather forecast says that Super Typhoon Haiyan has changed course ahead of schedule, with its eye heading straight for Island No. 3." Gu Beichen's voice was as deep as the sea before a storm. "Two hours ago, the radar station sent its last report, saying that the computer room was flooded and the generator was malfunctioning. After that, it completely lost contact."
Su Yue's heart skipped a beat.
During a typhoon, rescue operations were carried out at sea.
This is playing with fire.
"Is it absolutely necessary to go?"
“There are three soldiers on board, along with the newly equipped core components of the new radar.” Gu Beichen fastened his top button and straightened his collar. “I’m the chief of staff. If I don’t go, who will?”
These are his soldiers, this is his defense zone.
Su Yue didn't waste any more words.
She turned and rushed into the kitchen, pulling a military green canteen from deep inside a cabinet.
My hands were shaking a bit, and it took me two twists to open the lid.
She emptied the water from the pot, then probed the space with her consciousness, drawing out a stream of clear, cool spiritual spring water and filling it up.
They added another half tube of high-concentration glucose solution, and a few crushed anti-inflammatory tablets.
This is something that can save your life.
"Here you go." Su Yue shoved the water bottle into Gu Beichen's hand and then stuffed two small sealed metal boxes into his pocket. "This bottle contains special hemostatic powder. As long as the major artery isn't severed, pouring it on will stop the bleeding. That bottle contains antibiotics. If you unfortunately get injured, infected, or develop a fever, swallow two tablets."
Gu Beichen weighed the kettle in his hand; it was heavy.
"What's this?"
"It's a high-energy nutrient solution I got from America." Su Yue lied without batting an eye, looking him straight in the eye. "Remember, if you're weak or injured, take a sip. Don't hold back."
Gu Beichen looked at her.
The woman was wearing only a thin nightgown, her long hair was draped over her shoulders, and her face was still somewhat pale from illness.
She didn't cry or make a fuss; she just frantically stuffed things into that military satchel.
Bandages, painkillers, or even a few pieces of chocolate.
He suddenly reached out and pulled her forcefully into his arms.
The force was so great that it felt like it was trying to knead her into her very bones.
"wait for me."
He whispered in her ear, his voice hoarse, "One week. At the latest, one week. I will definitely be back."
“Gu Beichen.” Su Yue wrapped her arms around his broad back, her nails almost digging into his flesh. “If you dare to come back with even a single hair missing, I’ll remarry with Ping An and Ning Jing, and make your child call someone else ‘Dad’.”
This threat is both vicious and childish.
Gu Beichen's chest trembled, and he let out two muffled laughs.
"Dream on."
He let go of her hand, took one last deep look at her, turned around, opened the door, and rushed into the dark, rainy night.
The roar of the jeep's engine echoed outside the yard, quickly fading into the distance and swallowed by the howling wind.
Su Yue stood at the door until the red light from the car's taillights completely disappeared.
My right eyelid started twitching uncontrollably.
That feeling of panic was more intense than ever before.
...
This night was destined to be sleepless.
By daybreak, the wind was already terrifyingly strong. The old phoenix tree in the yard was being blown about, its branches whipping against the windows with a crackling sound.
Su Yue didn't go to the hospital or the factory.
She sat on the sofa in the living room, holding the radio she never parted with. She turned the tuning knob round and round, but there was nothing inside except for the crackling sound of electricity.
"Mother."
Gu Ping'an, carrying his little jeep, ran over and lay down on Su Yue's lap.
"Dad, did you go fight the bad guys?"
Su Yue touched her son's head, her fingertips were icy cold: "Yes, Daddy went to catch a big monster."
"Then Daddy is awesome." Gu Ping'an waved his little fist, "He smashed the monster's head."
Su Yue forced a smile.
The door was pushed open.
Huo Wenxuan, with his messy, wet hair and a briefcase in hand, started shouting even before he entered the door.
"Hey grandma, why don't you close the door properly? The wind is so strong it could blow someone away!"
He tossed his briefcase onto the tea table and poured himself a glass of water, gulping it down.
"Great news! Fantastic good news!"
Huo Wenxuan wiped the rain off his face, his eyes gleaming with a sly light. "I just received a telegram from Hong Kong. Do you know who it is? The Huang Group, the Huo family's old rival there! Their second wife used our pearl cream, and the spots on her face have faded by half! Now she specifically requests to see you, saying she wants to discuss the exclusive overseas agency rights!"
