If they hadn't met Qin Sheng, and hadn't known that there was a drug in the world that could reverse genes, all Zhen Zhu and Jin Chu could do was take care of those people in their remaining years and let them leave with dignity.
But now that I know such a medicine exists...
Zhen Zhu bit her lip and asked, "Do you have any extra medicine? Could you sell me some more?"
Qin Sheng shook her head: "No."
Zhenzhu's heart sank suddenly.
But Jin Chu has studied biological genes for so long that even if she hasn't studied them, she knows how rare this medicine is from what she's seen and heard.
It's normal for Qin Sheng to refuse...
The thought had barely crossed my mind when I heard the girl's familiar voice ring out again.
"This batch of drugs is small, and it's only the first phase of experimental drugs. There are still many imperfections. I've already spoken with Professor Song, and we'll begin the second phase of experimental development next semester. But there's one problem," Qin Sheng said.
Zhen Zhu was stunned, and subconsciously asked, "What?"
Qin Sheng: "There is a lack of experimental data."
Before Zhen Zhu could ask, Qin Sheng continued, "Any experiment needs data to support it, but the number of people in this world whose genes have been tampered with is a minority, and most of them will not be affected in their normal lives, so they would not be willing to become test subjects for such a small problem."
"Therefore, the results of our experiment are all based on theoretical analysis and cannot be verified in practice. What I mean is, could you help me ask your friends if they would be willing to be the test subjects?" Qin Sheng concluded.
Zhenzhu stared blankly at the girl's aloof face, her almond-shaped eyes, which bore a six or seven-point resemblance to Qin Sheng's, gradually turning red.
Finally, she nodded through tears: "They're willing, they're willing!"
The words "experimental subject" were nothing short of a nightmare for them in the past, something they desperately wanted to escape and break free of.
She should have been extremely resistant, but at this moment, Zhenzhu desperately wanted to become the new "experimental subject".
Qin Sheng's experimental subject.
Only those who have experienced it firsthand know how terrifying it is to be injected with drugs continuously, and how horrifying it is to watch yourself constantly being twisted and deformed.
More than anyone else, they longed to be normal human beings.
Death may be easy, but no one wants to give up if there's even the slightest chance of survival...
Qin Sheng left.
He left the remaining medication behind, discussed the living environment and needs of the test subjects with Jin Chu, and briefly explained the next round of experimental plans before leaving.
In the room, Jin Chu helped Zhen Zhu lie back down against the headboard.
Once she calmed down, she asked, "What did you mean when you said that Qin Sheng was a victim along with you?"
In the past, Zhenzhu was reluctant to talk to her brother about life in the black prison, but today she had already talked a lot about it, and with her condition improving, she was in a rare mood.
After thinking for a moment, he said, "I don't know very much either. I just heard it from someone else by chance. They said that the blood donor for the drug I was injected with was arrested there when he was very young and was detained for half a year."
"But she's amazing. No matter how many times the dosage of medicine she's injected, she can withstand it. Sometimes she'll experience some unusual changes... like the edema and hair loss I'm experiencing now, but it usually heals on its own within a day or two."
Zhen Zhu paused, then sighed, "It is precisely because of her extraordinary physique that those people are so persistent in their pursuit of her. It is said that they have not given up on capturing her even after all these years."
This is also what Zhenzhu admires most about Qin Sheng—she actually managed to avoid it all along.
She has been imprisoned for several years, and all the news she has heard from people there is from their casual conversations. Otherwise, she has no freedom at all.
No matter what tricks she played or what methods she tried, she couldn't escape.
Not to mention escaping and never being found by them again.
Jin Chu's eyes flickered.
Now I finally understand why Qin Sheng's eyes had been filled with such turbulent emotions the moment she entered the room.
It's really hard to imagine...
*
The lights in the room were still off, but Qin Sheng didn't mind and strolled slowly out.
As soon as Qin Sheng opened the door, she looked up and met the man's dark, golden eyes, which held a familiar tenderness that seemed to see right into her heart.
Qin Sheng's eyes flickered slightly.
When she came to her senses, she had already snuggled into Fu Jingheng's arms, her two slender arms encircling the man's lean waist.
It is a rare instance of clinging to a vulnerable state.
Fu Jingheng's heart skipped a beat, followed by a deep sense of heartache.
Without asking what happened, he reached out and pulled her into his arms, gently stroking her back.
His usually calm voice was incredibly gentle at this moment: "Sheng Sheng, be good."
Qin Sheng was indeed obedient.
She nestled obediently in Fu Jingheng's arms, and after a while, the gloom and coldness that had risen in her heart from seeing those photos dissipated.
She reached out and pressed against Fu Jingheng's chest, trying to get out of his embrace.
But they couldn't push the person away.
Qin Sheng looked up.
Then I saw the man's ambiguous smile.
Fu Jingheng chuckled softly, "You've already let your brother lean on you, shouldn't you give him a reward?"
Qin Sheng: "...For example?"
“For example…” the man said, his thumb brushing against the girl’s pink lips, a smile playing on his lips, “It’s not too much to kiss her for as long as we’re close, is it?”
Qin Sheng: "..."
A dog man can never change his dog nature.
She wouldn't tolerate him; she nudged him away with her elbow and turned to walk downstairs.
Fu Jingheng quickly caught up with him.
Suddenly, he quickened his pace, lowered his body and grabbed Qin Sheng's knees, then lifted her over his head with all his might.
It was that kind of lifting style where Qin Sheng sat on his arms.
Qin Sheng was completely stunned.
Coming to his senses, he couldn't help but turn pale and said, "I'm eighteen, and I'll be nineteen in a few months."
Fu Jingheng smiled and said, "We're a little closer to getting married, that's great."
Qin Sheng: "..."
Is she talking about marriage?
Is it that it can't understand human language or what?
Even Qin Sheng was at a loss when faced with a man who was deliberately pretending to be simple-minded.
He could only fight Fu Jingheng.
The punch went from the stairwell to the community fitness area, and then from the fitness area to the car.
In the end, Fu Jingheng proved to be the more skilled one, pinning Qin Sheng down on the car seat and kissing her profusely.
Qin Sheng looked completely bewildered.
So, has his injury healed?
Why does it feel like he's much stronger than last time?
She was starting to lose the fight.
