Here, Gu Nanyan accompanied Shen Bei'an to a special place, with someone following them the whole time.
Even so, Shen Beian's eyes still shone.
Meanwhile, the Biluo Xiaozhu (碧落小筑) over there had no guests.
"I'm sorry, my wife and husband are not here. You should go back." Aunt Wang calmly looked at the menacing group in front of her.
The person in the lead wore a satin skirt embroidered with gold butterflies and flowers, with a lake-blue shawl draped over her arm. She wore only a simple jade hairpin on her head, and her hands were crossed in front of her abdomen.
“Auntie, we wonder where the eldest son has gone and when he will return? We have important matters to discuss with him.” Her refined manners immediately won people’s favor.
Aunt Wang has been living in the Gu family for so many years, how could she be affected by these external factors?
“Young lady, please don’t make things difficult for this old woman. How could we possibly know where our master has gone or when he will return? Please leave.”
Aunt Wang didn't say a word more.
Ning Yao could only bow and leave. The people behind her were somewhat dissatisfied, but they dared not show it.
"Lord Ning, are we leaving like this? But we must fulfill the mission Elder Ning entrusted to us!" After leaving Biluo Xiaozhu, the group got into the carriage.
One person couldn't help but speak up.
Ning Yao simply brushed the dust off her clothes. "Even my grandfather doesn't dare to pay too much attention to the eldest son's affairs, so what can we do?"
Her words were full of admiration. "Besides, the eldest young master is busy for a reason, so we can wait."
“Ziyao, I think we can also approach the Shouwu Research Institute from the perspective of Young Master Ziya, instead of necessarily from the perspective of the eldest young master.” A girl dressed in a butterfly and daffodil dress spoke slowly.
“I think Zishuang is right. What we need is to cooperate with the Shouwu Research Institute, not the eldest son.” A young man also spoke up. “The eldest son has long since stopped interfering in affairs in recent years, and I’m afraid he’s not very friendly to us from Fuyun Island.”
"When the Fifth Master of the Shen family went to Fuyun Island some time ago, the eldest son made all the arrangements in advance. You see, which family's young master dared to cause trouble? Not to mention the families, even those exiled forces who smuggled themselves to Fuyun Island, who would dare to come out?"
When the young man said these words, his tone was not sarcastic, but full of envy.
For one person, the entire island was thoroughly cleaned.
Let alone the younger generation, even the older generation wouldn't dare.
“Ziyao, Lorenzo is right. Whether it’s Fuyun Island or 711, frankly speaking, neither of them will get along well with the eldest son. There’s no need for us to go to her. Going around to find the eldest son of the Ziya family is a good option.” Zou Shuang sighed. She even suspected that the eldest son knew they would come to find her today, which was why he left on purpose.
Ning Yao lowered her eyes and remained silent.
Zou Shuang spoke again, "Ziyao, we have to complete the task Elder Ning gave us. One unit is far too few. And the one we got is the most basic one. Ziyao, we can wait, but Brother Zhang can't."
The last sentence is the most important.
Ning Yao clenched her hands tightly beneath her wide sleeves. "Okay, let's go to the Polygonum multiflorum research institute." Her voice was a little hoarse.
As the car started moving, Ning Yao's gaze remained fixed on the small building, watching it shrink, become a dot, and eventually disappear.
——
"You're alright now, and you've come to find me." Ziya Jingmo immediately sent a holographic video call.
Gu Nanyan switched to voice call, "An'an and I are having a meal, so it's not convenient."
Ziya Jingmo's icy expression was about to crack. "The people from the Medical Alliance couldn't find you at Biluo Xiaozhu, but they came here instead."
The people on Fuyun Island are powerful and influential. Many countries grant them significant power in order to cooperate with them.
Especially those from the five major powers.
The same is true for medical alliances.
"If I remember correctly, Uncle Bao agreed to give them one last time, right? Why are they asking for one again?" Speaking of this, Ziya Jingmo could only say that Shen Juanqing was really good at negotiating.
At the time, Gu Nanyan gave three bottom lines, asking Shen Juanqing to negotiate and get the minimum one.
"The one we gave them last time was the most basic one, not as good as the one used by the Imperial Army," Gu Nanyan said calmly, while serving food to Shen Beian. "The young master of the Ning family injected himself with something and is almost ruined. The ordinary one won't save him."
Gu Nanyan was not on Fuyun Island, but he was very well-informed.
"That's quite a dedication." Ziya Jingmo was stunned. Those of them who work in medicine, whether it's developing devices or drugs, always need test subjects.
Although there are now human simulators, they can never compare to real people.
They also conduct drug trials on real people, but only when there is almost 100% certainty of safety.
Moreover, even if problems do arise, agreements have always been signed in advance.
Therefore, those who dared to participate in the drug trials were all people who were destined to die.
Ziya Jingmo has actually met very few people who test drugs on themselves.
It's not that people at research institutes lack a spirit of dedication.
Moreover, they each have more than one project in their hands.
"It wasn't a spirit of dedication, it was an accident." Gu Nanyan scoffed. "How could those people from the Medical Alliance possibly use me as a guinea pig?"
"It was because I didn't control the test subject properly and was instead controlled by the test subject. I didn't know that I had been injected with the newly developed GM521 from the Medical Alliance."
GM521 stands for genetically modified 521, a genetically modified product developed by the Medical Alliance.
Ziya Jingmo could only say, "This is pure karma. So what are you planning to do?" This is getting interesting. I wonder which test subject was so powerful, almost crippling the young master of the Ning family.
This is the most powerful successor to the medical alliance.
"So how is the young master of the Ning family now?" That kind of thing has quite a few side effects. The Medical Alliance has developed at least eighty or a hundred models, but none of them have been successful. It seems that quite a few deformed people have been produced, but in the end, they were all incinerated.
Gu Nanyan said casually, "What can I do? My whole body is covered in fish scales, and it looks like I have a few big moles on my face." He brought this on himself.
"It's retribution, so will you give it back here?" Ziya Jingmo brought the topic back to the main point, guessing that the price paid for the experimental subject was probably not much better. Usually, the same thing was injected into them, or even more cruelly.
Gu Nanyan smiled and accepted the food Shen Bei'an put on his plate. "Want some? You'll have to spend some money. You're not good at it, so leave this to Boss Zhou."
Ziya Jingmo is not suited for this kind of thing, which is why Gu Nanyan dragged Zhou Zhi into it behind Hua Yueli's back.
Ziya Jingmo agreed, knowing to prioritize interests and avoid risks, and that professional matters should be left to professionals. "Of course."
"Oh, by the way, the young lady of the Ning family even asked me where you went." There was a hint of teasing in her voice.
