Nan Yan adjusted quickly.
By the time Qin Lu returned, she had already returned to normal.
This time, Qin Lu and Li Yuan took advantage of Nolan’s capture to directly destroy several bases located in Country M. Following the information obtained from the headquarters, they also destroyed two other backup bases that were about to be activated.
After a few busy days, they looked a bit dusty.
However, Qin Lu still went to see Nan Yan as soon as he returned.
Nan Yan was in the laboratory.
Her wrist injury had not yet healed, so Hua Shifang did not allow her to do anything. Standing beside her was Nolan.
Or rather, he shouldn’t be called Nolan anymore; now, he was controlled by Wen Heng.
Nolan fulfilled his promise and allowed Wen Heng to control the body for five days.
Wen Heng, in order to maintain the affection of Hua Shifang and Nan Yan towards him and to prevent them from distancing themselves or neglecting him because of Nolan’s misuse of his body, went to great lengths.
So, after gaining control of the body, Wen Heng knew that Nan Yan was trying her best to cure Shen Junqing and Bai Chen. He obtained a synthesized drug from Nolan, which was half of the gene medicine injected into both of them, as a gesture of his ‘sincerity’.
However, because Nolan only provided half of the drugs, it wasn’t easy to research the true antidote.
When Qin Lu arrived, Hua Shifang was silently pouring the failed antidote into a specialized container.
Nan Yan pursed her lips and comforted him, “Master, with insufficient information, it’s not easy to research. Don’t worry.”
Hua Shifang said nothing.
He really wasn’t that fragile.
He even had to let his disciple comfort him.
Hua Shifang calmly put down what he was holding and wiped his hands with the disinfectant wipes handed to him by Wen Heng. “Well, there’s no need to rush. Let’s take it slowly.”
His gaze shifted to Qin Lu, who was standing at the door, and he spoke, “You’re back. ”
Qin Lu was worried that his sudden approach might disturb their experiment, so he conscientiously stood at the door waiting.
Upon hearing Hua Shifang call him, he walked over.
“Elder Hua, ” Qin Lu respectfully greeted, then looked at Nan Yan with concern.
“Yanyan, is your hand better?”
Nan Yan nodded obediently, “With Master here, it’s actually not a big deal.”
It had been a week now, and although the wound looked somewhat grim on the outside, it was already healing internally. And to prevent any lingering effects on her hand, her master used acupuncture to stimulate her nerves every day.
Hua Shifang watched the atmosphere between the two young lovers and, considering that Qin Lu hadn’t seen Nan Yan for a week, said:
“Nan Yan’s hand needs a dressing change. You accompany her to find Marcus.”
“Okay.”
Qin Lu nodded, then naturally took Nan Yan’s uninjured hand.
After several days of failures in a row, Elder Hua was actually quite exhausted. Seeing Nan Yan and Qin Lu leave, he furrowed his brow, called for Wen Heng, and also left the laboratory.
Qin Lu squeezed Nan Yan’s small hand, the warmth of her palm making him feel softened.
These few days, he had been killing too much, surrounded by murderous intent, and even the people around him dared not approach.
To avoid scaring Nan Yan, he had been trying to restrain himself as much as possible.
However, Nan Yan could still sense the suppressed killing intent emanating from him.
Of course, it was not very realistic to try to scare her to that extent.
She curved her lips and chuckled softly, “Brother…” At that moment, Qin Lu also spoke up, “Yanyan…”
“You go first.”
“You go first.”
They both spoke at the same time.
Then there was a moment of silence.
Qin Lu indulgently reached out and rubbed her head, smiling faintly, “You go first.’
“It’s nothing, actually. I just wanted to ask you about the Seven Deadly Sins.”
“Basically eradicated, ” Qin Lu replied.
“That’s good.” Nan Yan felt a little relieved in her heart.
After all, she had promised Nolan that she would let him go.
Now that the Seven Deadly Sins had been dealt with, even if they were to regroup, it would take time.
During this time, she would think of a way to drive him out of her second senior brother’s body.
“Brother, what did you want to tell me?”
Qin Lu’s smile was warm and shallow. “Nothing much, just wanted to call you.” He missed her.
Although it had only been a week since they last met, the longing in his heart couldn’t be suppressed. As soon as he saw her, he wanted to embrace her.
“Are you sure everything’s okay?”
Nan Yan looked at him suspiciously, her beautiful eyes staring straight at him.
Why did she feel like he had something to tell her after calling her?
