Zhou Yanjing sighed and said in a low voice, "His younger brother was poisoned during a mission and has never fully recovered."
Shen Liwu frowned, his fingers unconsciously grasped the corner of the quilt, and his voice was a little hesitant, “So…he hopes that I can help find the antidote?”
Zhou Yanjing nodded, his eyes deep, "That should be what you mean. I am worried about your current physical condition. After all, you just got pregnant, so you shouldn't overwork yourself."
Shen Liwu bit her lower lip, her eyes were a little complicated, "If I can help, of course I am willing. But if there is no specific data and samples of this toxin, it is difficult to determine its composition and mechanism of action."
Zhou Yanjing kissed her forehead and said, "After such a long time, there should be a sample. Don't worry about that. There is one more thing. When I came back, I met Zhang Yang from the team. He said that several groups of people came to your hospital. I heard they were from the Harmony District, Dongbei Hai, Guixiang Research Institute, and Medical College. They probably want to stay in the hospital to guard you and poach you at a high price. After all, you are a treasure that everyone is vying for now." His voice was low, with a hint of imperceptible worry.
Shen Liwu's brows slightly frowned. He had only been home for a few days, so why were there so many people?
Is she that famous?
These places are all well-known and authoritative in medicine. Why would they target a small doctor like me?
She looked up at Zhou Yanjing. In the darkness, she could feel that he seemed a little unhappy.
"Are you unhappy? Why?"
Zhou Yanjing was silent for a moment, and said in a low voice, "I'm not unhappy, I'm just... a little worried."
Shen Liwu's eyes flickered in the darkness, like stars in the night sky, "What are you worried about?"
"I'm worried that they will put pressure on you, or..." He paused, his Adam's apple rolling slightly, "I'm worried that you will leave me."
Shen Liwu was startled for a moment, then she laughed softly, her laughter sounded like a silver bell blown by the night wind, clear and gentle.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Why would I leave you?"
Zhou Yanjing tightened his arms and held her tighter, his breath spraying on the top of her head, warm and long. "You don't know how popular you are now. Those people will do anything to get you. I'm afraid they will use all kinds of means to force you to make a choice. The higher you stand, the less I can protect you."
He is currently only a deputy head of a group, holding a low position, without power or influence. How can he compete with those prestigious people?
He now suddenly understood his mother-in-law's thoughts a little bit. Sometimes people are really helpless. Only those in power can protect the people they want to protect.
“Don’t let your imagination run wild. I’m not that easy to be abducted.” Shen Liwu reached out and poked his chest, with a hint of playfulness in her tone.
Zhou Yanjing held her hand, not with much force, but tightly, as if he was afraid that she would disappear if he let go.
His voice was low and a little hoarse. "I will work hard to complete the task, get promoted as soon as possible, and be your backer. Just move forward, and I will work hard to stand at the same level as you."
Zhou Yanjing's voice sounded particularly firm in the darkness, as if every word carried a heavy weight.
"good."
The night was deep, and the wind started to pick up outside the house. The leaves rustled in the wind, like whispers.
