Song Fan was somewhat uncertain; the person in front of her didn’t seem like the same person who had won the international chemistry award two years ago.
Wu Yong was undoubtedly a genius in the field of chemistry, and he also understood pharmacology. Since winning the international award, Song Fan had collaborated with him once during a week in a foreign laboratory, after which he had completely disappeared. Even with a reward from the Mist, no one had found Wu Yong.
“Hehe, you still recognize me?” Wu Yong took off his glasses, and Song Fan was alarmed. His eyes were abnormal, with the left one showing signs of whiteness.
“Did I scare you? This ghostly appearance of mine is quite normal for scaring people.” Wu Yong laughed self-deprecatingly, but there was an unmistakable bitterness on his face.
Song Fan wanted to ask about his eyes, but considering they had only cooperated for a week in a foreign lab, this was not something she should inquire about.
However, Wu Yong seemed completely unconcerned. He took out eye drops and put a few drops into his left eye, gradually making it clearer. Then he put his glasses back on and chuckled, “I can’t do without this now; otherwise, I really won’t be able to see. What do you need me to do?”
“Are you poisoned?” Song Fan frowned. “This type of poison will depend on this eye drop, but it’s only a relief. You should know its side effects.”
Wu Yong was somewhat surprised but laughed again, “Indeed, it’s Song Fan. You can guess what this is right away. But without these eye drops, my left eye becomes unclear. There’s no other way. First, tell me what you need me to do.”
Upon knowing that saying more was futile, she briefly explained the basic components of the toxic substance in the incense, and Wu Yong immediately understood what needed to be done.
“No problem. The equipment and materials in the Gu family’s lab are sufficient. We just need to purify and mix them. If we cooperate, we can get it done in half an hour.” Wu Yong started working while talking.
Song Fan’s hands didn’t stop either, especially when she saw the speed at which the equipment operated and the results of various data analyses. She found it hard to contain the surge of excitement in her heart. Even in her previous life, her lab had only a portion of such high-end equipment. Gu Chen was indeed remarkable; he could afford these devices.
“The first time I came here, I was also extremely surprised. Even overseas, it’s not easy to get these pieces of equipment.” Seeing the smile on her face, Wu Yong knew what she was thinking. As a researcher, who wouldn’t want to have such high-end equipment?
“But Mr. Gu said he wanted to reserve them for the most important person to him. I’ve only been here once, and it was only when testing a new drug for the company that he allowed me to use it once. I didn’t expect the person important to Mr. Gu to be you.” Wu Yong worked swiftly and had already completed the purification. He smiled and said, “I’m really happy to cooperate with you. I thought I would never have the chance in this lifetime.”
“New drug?” Song Fan seized the key point. “So, after you disappeared, you were with the Gu family? Does Gu’s company also produce pharmaceuticals?”
Helpless, Wu Yong nodded. “Mr. Gu saved me. You’ve seen my current state. Back then, I really shouldn’t have participated in the international competition. In the end, I became like this… Well, let’s talk about it another day. Let’s check on Mr. Gu first.
When they received the antidote injection, Gu Chen had already regained consciousness, but his body was still weak.
“When did you come?” His throat was dry, and his voice sounded strange,
startling even himself.
“It’s okay; you’re just a bit weak. The injection of the antidote will help.” Song Fan injected the antidote, finally letting out a sigh of relief. Even the detoxification had to be done gradually; otherwise, she feared that the toxins in Gu Chen’s body might collectively erupt.
Beside them, Wu Yong was a bit at a loss. The effect of his eye drops had worn off in less than an hour, and now he could only see two blurry figures.
Although Gu Chen was weak, he forced himself to stay alert and said, “Song Fan, can you help Wu Yong? He’s poisoned too.”
“No, no need, Mr. Gu. I’m fine like this now. You should focus on yourself; you’ve been drugged again…” Wu Yong’s face turned red, but he dared not take a step forward because he could no longer see clearly. He knew the temperament of Miss Song. If she didn’t want to, forcing her would be impossible.
Song Fan, who had wanted to ask about Wu Yong’s situation, had her attention diverted when the room’s door was knocked. Su Yang, pushed by Uncle Zhong, entered the room with a somewhat gloomy expression and said, “We found him..”
