Chapter 483 No, I Can
"It's not like I deliberately lured you here. I just had a glimmer of hope."
"What do you expect?"
"A lot of things have changed. Dr. Du's research progress is even faster than before, and it has also received the attention of the country in advance and has been effectively protected. In the final analysis, the variable is you. So I hope that you will find out or someone will take the initiative to tell you what happened here, and you are willing to take the initiative to meet me."
Duanrao couldn't help but sigh when he heard this. What is effective rebirth? This is it!
Rebirth can only allow people to foresee some things in advance, avoid risks, and make up for regrets, but it is impossible to change a person's original IQ and nature. The person in front of him and Xiao Jinhang are living examples.
Thinking of this, Duanrao looked at the person in front of him with a bit more regret and sympathy.
If it weren't for the fan fiction author's lame plot, with the person's ability and courage, he would be able to live a good life no matter where he is.
Instead of being like now, she has completely lost the opportunity to enter her favorite laboratory and work with respected seniors, and has also lost her freedom and dreams. She can only live her whole life under the surveillance and vigilance of others, carrying a stigma that should not be borne by her.
"I'm here as you wished. What do you want to tell me? Or do you have any unfulfilled wishes that you want to tell me?"
Wen Xia Nuan was not surprised that Duan Rao could guess this. She smiled and said, "I can give my body to you. I can be monitored and controlled for the rest of my life. Even if you want my life, that's fine. But I have something to ask of you."
Duan Rao's eyes flickered slightly, and he had already guessed her intention: "About...your grandmother?"
"Yes, before I attacked Xiao Jinhang, I had already sent grandma to a relatively safe place. I hope that after this, you can help me protect her, hide my affairs from her, and let her live well until she... dies of old age."
Wen Xia Nuan lowered her eyes slightly at the end of her speech: "I know this request is very out of line and excessive. I don't have any value that can match this request now, but grandma is my only relative in this world, the only one I care about. At this time, I can only shamelessly beg for your mercy."
Du Anrao didn't think Wen Xia Nuan's request was offensive. Given her current special situation, applying for protection for her only close relative was not an excessive request. She was just a little surprised at the trust and high hopes the person in front of her had for her. After all, they had only met once and exchanged a few words before.
Duanrao thought so and asked.
Wen Xia Nuan smiled after hearing this: "You are Dr. Du's biological sister. I trust him, so I naturally trust you. Moreover, you were able to see that something was wrong with me the first time we met, and you even lent me a hand. Your ability and character are beyond doubt. And..."
Wen Xia Nuan first flattered Duan Rao in a routine way before expressing her true thoughts.
"Now, apart from you, I can't think of anyone else I can trust and rely on."
All I can say is that sincerity is always the ultimate skill. Wen Xianuan's frankness makes Du Anrao feel even more melancholy and pity her.
"I can promise you that I will protect your grandmother and let her enjoy her old age as much as possible." But the old lady's expectation for her later years must be for the younger generations to be around her, to accompany her often, to chat and laugh with her, and to share family happiness. Wen Xia Nuan is destined to be unable to do this, and Du Anrao has no way to help her do it.
Wen Xia Nuan obviously knew this, nodded, and said gratefully: "Thank you."
Afterwards, the two talked about "that voice" she mentioned. Before leaving, Du Anrao looked into Wen Xianuan's gentle eyes and couldn't help but ask tentatively: "Will you... regret it?"
I regret sending myself here, and I regret ruining my future for such an unworthy person.
Wen Xia Nuan's voice was gentle and firm: "No, never."
She came here not only because she didn't want to be Xiao Jinhang's disgusting accomplice and let him get what he wanted and pay the price for his deeds in past and present lives, but also because she knew the importance of Dr. Du and his research results better than anyone else.
Protecting him, and protecting him means protecting the life hope of countless cancer patients. For this, she can pay any price, even sacrifice herself.
This is a personal relationship, but it is also a matter of justice.
Du Anrao was shocked, but in the end he didn't say anything more and left with Du Yihan and others.
The moment I walked out of the ward door, a malicious voice suddenly came from inside the room: "You can't change anything, and you can't save them. Man can never defeat nature."
Duan Rao paused. She did not turn around to look at the person in the ward who might have changed again. She just lowered her eyes and replied in a voice that only she could hear: "No, I can do it, and so can they."
After coming out of the hospital, Duan Rao asked one of the staff members who were responsible for receiving them in a deep voice: "Did the higher-ups tell us what to do with her next?"
"Before this, the hospital's diagnosis was schizophrenia and secondary personality. However, after your conversation with her today, the apparent conclusion may not change, but our department's archive will have more content, and her arrangements may also be adjusted."
Du Anrao understood his implication, which was that the place waiting for Wen Xia Nuan might have been the mental hospital, but now it might be somewhere else.
"I understand. Send more people here to keep a close eye on her every move. If she does anything out of line, stop her immediately. I will talk to your minister about this matter directly. Thank you for keeping an eye on her situation in the near future."
The concern Du Anrao mentioned was not just about whether Wen Xia Nuan would do anything to harm others again, but also about worrying that she would hurt herself in return.
After all, judging from her previous descriptions, the thing lurking in her mind, trying to brainwash her, and being able to temporarily take over her body and control her to do bad things, itself has a very utilitarian purpose.
Who knows, after realizing that Wen Xia Nuan has been completely controlled and cannot follow the script it has arranged for her, will it become angry and turn against Wen Xia Nuan, directly manipulating her body to hurt itself?
It's unlikely, but not impossible.
"Miss Du, you are too polite. This is what we should do."
As they were talking, one of the staff members suddenly answered a phone call and whispered something into the ear of the person who had just been talking to Duanrao.
The man's face changed slightly, and he looked at Duanrao while listening.
Du Anrao frowned slightly when he saw this, and suddenly had a bad premonition.
"What happened?"
"Ms. Du, Minister Xu just received news that Qu Youliang has died."
