Su Lang and Huo Weiping's clinical trial on Rubescens rubescens was successful. Within two days, they received news that Hepu's clinical trial on Rubescens rubescens had also made a breakthrough and was preparing to apply for a patent.
"That's impossible."
Huo Weiping was a little skeptical. When Zhang Jian betrayed him and went to Hepu, he took away a batch of research materials, but the research materials he took away were incomplete. Moreover, their research at that time was based on the No. 1 winter grass, and the efficacy was not comparable to the No. 2 winter grass provided by Yan Yue later. Even if Zhang Jian was a genius, he would definitely not be able to catch up with his research progress in a short time. Huo Weiping was a little worried that Yan Yue would be dissatisfied with his progress after knowing this news, so he wanted to talk to Yan Yue.
Su Lang dissuaded him from this idea, thinking that Yan Yue should know what was going on better than them.
"What do you mean?" Huo Weiping's eyes were full of confusion.
Su Lang thought for a moment and explained, "Brother Huo, we are doing research ourselves. You also said that it is impossible to make any progress at the current rate of Zhang Jian's research. The news released by the other party may not be true."
"You said that Zhang Jian's side released false information, so what are they trying to achieve?"
Su Lang shook his head. These were just his speculations. Huo Weiping didn't know Yan Yue's identity, but he knew about the entanglement between Yan Yue and Hepu. They had just made progress, and Hepu also made progress immediately. How could it be such a coincidence? He always felt that Yan Yue had done something in there, but he couldn't tell Huo Weiping about it. "Anyway, Brother Huo, just listen to me. Hepu has nothing to do with us."
He spoke with great confidence. Huo Weiping thought that Su Lang and Yan Yue knew each other before and should be more familiar with Yan Yue's style of doing things, so he slowly put his mind at ease.
The two of them held back and neither of them went to look for Yan Yue. Ye Kang, who also received the news, was extremely curious about it. "You don't look anxious at all?"
Yan Yue looked down at the computer and said casually, "What's the hurry?"
Ye Kang stared at his expression with interest. "Let me guess. Was it you who caused Hepu to suddenly announce that it wanted to apply for a patent?"
Yan Yue raised his lips slightly and said nonchalantly, "I just told Yin Ya a few words about Huo Weiping and Su Lang's research progress through someone else. The rest is none of my business."
Ye Kang understood immediately after he gently touched her. Yin Ya and Yan Hai are now competing fiercely at Hepu. Yin Ya has placed all her hopes on the research of winter ling grass, hoping to consolidate her position in Hepu through the launch of the new winter ling grass drug. If Su Lang's research progress is faster than Hepu, or even launches the drug one step earlier than Hepu, all Yin Ya's previous hard work will be in vain. She has no way out now, and can only bite the bullet and announce their "success", and even apply for a patent first to get the new drug approved for launch.
After Ye Kang figured this out, he had another question, "It's not easy for Yin Ya to hide this from Uncle Yan."
Yan Yue nodded and said, "If my father was at the headquarters, Yin Ya would not be able to hide it, but my father is abroad now and I am afraid it is out of reach."
"Uncle Yan went abroad?"
Yan Yue hummed, "Yan Hai leaked commercial secrets and caused a big mess. Father is now helping him clean up his mess. He won't have the energy to focus on the domestic affairs in the short term."
His tone was calm as if he was talking about a trivial matter. Ye Kang smiled knowingly, having already guessed the cause and effect of the matter. "What are you going to do next?"
Yan Yue smiled playfully, "It depends on how Yin Ya cooperates."
As Yan Yue expected, Yin Ya was now desperate. She asked Zhang Jian to prepare the new drug application report before Yan Shihui returned to China. The new drug must be launched on the market anyway, which was related to whether she could gain a firm foothold in Hepu.
Zhang Jian was a little hesitant. "Although the clinical trial of Rubescens rubescens is effective, the effect is not very obvious. It is better to wait a little longer."
"What are you waiting for?" Yin Ya said dissatisfiedly: "Don't you know that Huo Weiping is already preparing to apply for a patent? If he launches the product first, do you know how much we will lose?"
Zhang Jian certainly knew what it meant to go public one day earlier, but he didn't have much confidence in his own research. When he followed Huo Weiping before, he was just Huo Weiping's assistant. Although he felt that he was no worse than Huo Weiping, he still felt a little uneasy about facing Huo Weiping subconsciously. "Ms. Yin..."
"It's settled now." Yin Ya said simply, "You go and prepare the application materials, and leave the rest to me. We just need to know the research situation ourselves. We must get this done before Yan Shihui comes back."
She was firm in her attitude, so Zhang Jian agreed with all his heart. Although the research results of wintergrass were not as good as he had imagined, it generally induced degradation and apoptosis of the pathogenic proteins of leukemia. It was just that the effect was slightly slower, so it was not against the doctor's conscience. Zhang Jian convinced himself in this way and sighed silently.
Yan Yue was not blinded to Hepu's movements. He soon learned that Yin Ya had established a connection with Mr. Lu through Lu Weian. Mr. Lu was probably optimistic about the winter ling grass project and took the initiative to say that he would help Yin Ya get a new drug certificate. During this period, Yin Ya applied for a sum of money from the board of directors to be used for the promotion of new drugs. Although Yan Shihui, who was far away abroad, knew all this, he was not clear about the specific details. He never expected that Yin Ya would be so bold as to deceive the board of directors with a semi-finished research.
Time soon came to the end of April, and tomorrow was the day to go to Kunnan as scheduled with Mr. Zhang. Lu Lingxi had informed Hu Zi in advance that the micro-gardening would be handed over to Hu Zi during his absence. Hu Zi was confident about this, "Don't worry, I know all this after growing vegetables in greenhouses for nearly a year."
Lu Lingxi curled his eyes. He was not worried that Hu Zi didn't understand these things, but he was afraid that Hu Zi would feel bored staying in the store all day.
Huzi laughed, "It's much more lively here than in the greenhouse, how can it be boring? Besides, there are computers here."
"Okay, Xiaoxi, don't worry about it." Xiao Feng said with a smile, "It's a rare opportunity for you to go out without having to worry about home and the store. Just go out and have a good time. I'm here."
"Yeah." Lu Lingxi nodded.
He started to pack up his things, and Dahei squatted quietly beside him. Lu Lingxi touched Dahei's head, and Dahei called out softly.
"Be obedient, I'll be back soon." Lu Lingxi soothed. It was too far to drive to Kunnan this time, so he had to take a plane. It would be a bit inconvenient to bring Dahei with him. Lu Lingxi had initially planned to ship Dahei to Kunnan by plane, but after reading several news reports about pet shipping accidents on the Internet, he gave up the idea. Anyway, he would be gone for a week at most and would be back soon, so he didn't bother Dahei.
Dahei didn't want to be separated from Lu Lingxi. He licked Lu Lingxi's fingers reluctantly, and looked at Lu Lingxi tenderly with his obsidian eyes.
Lu Lingxi felt her heart was about to soften, and she held Dahei for a long time, unwilling to let go.
"Seven days, I'll be back in seven days at most, okay?"
Dahei whimpered softly and agreed reluctantly.
Lu Lingxi quickly packed up his things and ran to the next door with Dahei. Wang Shuxiu looked at his back and felt a little unhappy thinking that Yan Yue was also going to Kunnan. She couldn't help but feel a little worried when she talked to Xiao Feng in private.
"Do you think if they live together...?"
Xiao Feng listened with a smile, not knowing how to answer this question for a moment, and after a while he said: "Xiaoxi is already grown up, there are some things that a mother should not worry about."
Wang Shuxiu was unhappy, "How can I not worry! Two men are together, you know..."
She didn't say the rest, but her meaning was very clear. During this period, Wang Shuxiu had nothing to do and didn't have to go to the restaurant every day. She stayed at home and read a lot of information about homosexuality. At first, Wang Shuxiu didn't agree with Lu Lingxi and Yan Yue being together, but seeing that there was no way to separate them, she acquiesced and also wanted to know more about the two men being together. After understanding this, Wang Shuxiu immediately realized a problem. Yan Yue and Lu Lingxi couldn't be together in a simple spiritual relationship. Just like men and women will have desires for each other's bodies, men and men are the same.
It's not that she didn't understand before, but she just avoided this question subconsciously, but now Wang Shuxiu can't avoid it anymore. Whenever she thinks about how Lu Lingxi almost lived with Yan Yue last winter, Wang Shuxiu can't tell what she feels in her heart. After thinking about it, although Wang Shuxiu no longer restricts Lu Lingxi and Yan Yue from meeting, she strictly requires Lu Lingxi to go home at nine o'clock in the evening. Fortunately, she observed that the little bastard didn't seem to have fully understood these things, so she felt a little relieved.
But this time when she was away from home... Wang Shuxiu started to worry again.
Xiao Feng had no choice but to listen to Wang Shuxiu tossing and turning all night and barely getting any sleep. At dawn, Wang Shuxiu got up early to prepare breakfast for Lu Lingxi. Their flight was at nine in the morning, so they had to rush to the airport after breakfast.
As soon as she heard a noise outside, Lu Lingxi woke up. This was Lu Lingxi's first time traveling far away, so she was a little excited and didn't sleep well all night.
"Mother."
Lu Lingxi pushed open the door, greeted Wang Shuxiu with a smile, then turned around to wash up.
"Xiaoxi."
Wang Shuxiu called out to Lu Lingxi hesitantly.
"Mom, is there something wrong?" Lu Lingxi turned and looked at Wang Shuxiu.
Wang Shuxiu wanted to say something, but after hesitating for a long time, she waved her hand and asked Lu Lingxi to wash her face first. While Lu Lingxi was in the bathroom, Wang Shuxiu stuffed a booklet into Lu Lingxi's bag with a stern face. She thought about it all night and felt that this was the only way.
After breakfast, Yan Yue came to pick up Lu Lingxi. Wang Shuxiu glared at Yan Yue a few times in displeasure, and she couldn't stand Yan Yue. Lu Lingxi said goodbye to Wang Shuxiu and Xiao Feng, hugged Dahei and kissed him for a long time before getting into the car with Yan Yue.
It takes about 40 minutes to get from their residential area to the airport. Lu Lingxi was looking for his phone in his bag when he suddenly touched a booklet. "What is this?" He looked at the booklet in his hand blankly. When he saw the words printed on the cover of the booklet, his face turned red.
"What?" Yan Yue noticed that his reaction was wrong and looked over.
The big words "Safe Sex" came into view. Yan Yue raised his eyebrows slightly and looked away as if nothing had happened, but the smile in his eyes became deeper and deeper.
