Chapter 119: Astonishing Effects of the Medicine

For a moment, Qin Yuzhu was amused by Mo Jingchun.

Seriously? Is there any drink I can’t afford? The problem is, who dares to drink this unknown stuff, unless they want a quick meeting with King Yama.

Putting away her smile, Qin Yuzhu asked Mo Jingchun with a serious face, "Can this transparent liquid really treat leukemia?"

Mo Jingchun raised an eyebrow and said, "Theoretically, it can. But as you know, it hasn’t been tested since I made it."

"There’s no other way, I have to turn to you guys."

To be honest, even Mo Jingchun wasn’t sure if the targeted therapy for leukemia would work. After all, he couldn’t guarantee there were no mistakes in the manufacturing process or environmental factors at play.

"Do you really think I’m all-powerful and can help with anything?"

Looking at the glass bottle, Qin Yuzhu furrowed her brows since her institute didn’t specialize in biological or chemical research. To take it back, she’d have to seek help from other research institutes.

"How about this, I’ll take this back, hand it over to the experts for testing, and in return, we’ll call off your previous promise. How about that?"

"Don’t think I’m trying to swindle you. Our institute mainly focuses on machinery and artificial intelligence. This doesn’t fall under our research scope, so I need to hand it over to other institutes for you."

With Qin Yuzhu’s explanation, Mo Jingchun started to understand. After all, interpersonal relationships are valued in our culture.

Luckily, he hadn’t redeemed that promise earlier; otherwise, would Qin Yuzhu still lend a hand?

Of course, whether Qin Yuzhu is trying to retract the promise, Mo Jingchun wasn’t sure.

After contemplating, Mo Jingchun nodded and said, "Alright, but I need all the detailed data from the entire experiment process."

"That’s not an issue. We have no use for the data anyway."

You know what they say, being debt-free feels light as a feather. This feeling is simply refreshing.

Since Mo Jingchun had never mentioned any conditions, was he waiting for the New Year? Initially, Qin Yuzhu thought Mo Jingchun wanted her to use the promise to exchange for land, but to her surprise, he had no interest in Luzhou and insisted on heading to a small town.

Qin Yuzhu signaled the soldier to hold the glass bottle, squared her shoulders, and once again wore the smile she had when she arrived.

"Let’s go."

Watching the soldier casually holding the bottle, Mo Jingchun hesitated to speak until Qin Yuzhu and her team got into the car, then he heaved a deep sigh.

Hopefully, the glass bottle doesn’t get bumped and shattered on the way.

"Brother, are you unhappy?"

Mo Jingchun rubbed Candy’s cheek and said with a smile, "No, I’m not."

"But... why did you sigh then? Like this." With that, the little one mimicked the deep sigh Mo Jingchun just made.

Her expression was a perfect imitation.

Sitting in the car, Qin Yuzhu didn’t head straight back to the institute but had the soldier drive to another research institute’s address.

On the bustling city streets, the military vehicle stopped in front of a building.

"Comrade, please show your identification."

"Greetings, Chief!" Once the credentials and identity were confirmed, the soldier at the sentry post let them through.

In the reception room, Qin Yuzhu waited for almost half an hour before the person she was waiting for finally arrived.

"Sorry, sorry, I’ve been busy."

Qin Yuzhu pushed the glass bottle on the table towards Yu Binggang, mimicking Mo Jingchun’s tone at the time, and said arrogantly, "Targeted therapy for leukemia, after testing, I need all the experimental data."

Yu Binggang, who had just taken a sip of water, sprayed it out upon hearing that the bottle contained targeted therapy for leukemia.

"Cough, cough, I apologize."

"So, can you do it or not? Just give me a straightforward answer."

"Well, we can, but you know, this... targeted therapy for leukemia might have issues..."

Qin Yuzhu took a sip of chilled tea and casually remarked, "Same old rule, subtract one from the number."

"Ms. Qin, look at how you’re wording it. Rest assured, I promise to hand over all experimental data to you in due time."

After Qin Yuzhu left, the targeted therapy for leukemia that Mo Jingchun made quickly made its way to the laboratory.

The professor glanced at the crude glass bottle and the experiment instructions, then handed the item to the student.

"Conduct the experiment according to the requirements and record all experimental data."

"Got it, Professor."

In a medical detention ward in Jing City, Liu Xueqin lay on the hospital bed with a pale face. Upon closer inspection, one would notice she had an IV drip and her right hand was cuffed to the bedhead.

Liu Xueqin appeared lifeless, and indeed she was waiting for death.

This might be karma. Even after being imprisoned, she couldn’t escape fate’s punishment. Liu Xueqin never imagined leukemia would fall upon her.

Liu Xueqin, with her eyes half-closed, stared blurry-eyed outside the window.

Suddenly, a silhouette blocked her view.

"Liu Xueqin, female, age 29, convicted of fraud involving substantial sums, sentenced to life imprisonment with asset forfeiture."

Listening to the person in front of her, Liu Xueqin felt no internal ripple. She was close to death; a life sentence felt like a luxury.

"Now there’s a chance to survive and, depending on your performance, a reduction in your sentence."

"Liu Xueqin, do you want to accept it?"

"If you agree, you’ll receive our country’s latest developed targeted therapy for leukemia treatment. Of course, you might get cured, or you might die more quickly."

"If willing, nod; if not, shake your head."

At that moment, Liu Xueqin’s lifeless heart began to beat gradually again. Using all her strength, Liu Xueqin nodded.

Shortly after, Liu Xueqin was wheeled into another hospital room.

Liu Xueqin felt something injected into her arm and then fell asleep immediately.

A week later, the professor alongside students watched Liu Xueqin doing her morning exercises, completely astonished.

Reviewing the students’ recorded detailed data, the professor’s hands trembled uncontrollably.

"Do we still have any of that targeted therapy for leukemia?"

The student nodded rapidly, "Professor, there’s still half a bottle left."

"Then conduct another experiment to see if the effects are consistent."

"No, no, that glass bottle must be leaking. After so long, the efficacy must have been significantly reduced."

While the professor lamented about the reduced efficacy, the student’s words beside him made him beam with joy.

"Professor, when my senior and I received the medication, we transferred it to a new storage container."

"Excellent, excellent!"

"Quickly arrange for a comparative experiment."

Meanwhile, as Liu Xueqin did her morning exercises, her mood was equally upbeat.

She had thought she was going to die, but surprisingly, the leukemia really got cured.
