“This is your company. Don’t say such things,” Song Fan tried to cover his mouth, but Gu Chen grabbed her hand.
Gu Chen initially intended to say something comforting, but he noticed Song Fan’s expression turning unnatural. She then grabbed his wrist to check his pulse.
Just as Song Fan suspected, Gu Chen’s condition was deteriorating. Her face darkened further.
“How long does your heart pain last each day?” Song Fan asked, her tone angry.
Gu Chen reluctantly withdrew his hand. He wanted to say it was nothing, but seeing Song Fan’s angry face, he didn’t dare lie.
“At first, it was only a few seconds, but now it can last three or four minutes. But the pain is intermittent, not continuous,” he answered seriously. “It mostly happens at night. Sometimes, when I’m asleep, it’s not very noticeable.”
“Asleep? Asleep, and you can still tell it changed from seconds to minutes?” Song Fan’s tone worsened. She quickly pulled out a small, exquisite box from her pocket, took out a pill, and forcefully stuffed it into Gu Chen’s mouth.
“You’re murdering your husband!” Gu Chen pretended to cough but still teased Song Fan.
Song Fan didn’t have time to entertain him. “Take one of these pills at this time every day. I extracted these from the snow saffron leaves during my last refinement. This bottle will only keep you pain-free for a month at most.”
She didn’t say the rest. Given Gu Chen’s current condition, the pain would likely worsen after a month, and he would need snow saffron to suppress it. However, Song Fan only had one plant left.
Knowing she was worried, Gu Chen quickly changed the subject, “Want to try the company’s cafeteria? It’s not as good as the chefs in the capital, but it’s still excellent.”
Song Fan’s stomach growled in response. She had no choice but to leave the lab.
As soon as they left, Fang Si sneaked into the conference room.
Earlier, she had already cut the surveillance to this area. The researchers were too focused on their work to check the monitors. She needed this gap to completely remove Song Fan.
Wearing sunscreen gloves, she quickly typed on the keyboard, copied Wu Yong’s final research, pulled out the USB drive, and hurried out of the conference room.
In just two or three days, Song Fan had become familiar with several people at the institute. Besides managing the jewelry store, she spent most of her time in the lab.
Doing experiments diligently helped her forget her troubles. She needed to continue Wu Yong’s research and find a cure for Gu Chen.
“Song Fan, something’s wrong!”
Hearing Zhao Min’s voice, Song Fan’s hand holding the dropper shook, but fortunately, the liquid didn’t spill.
She didn’t ask Zhao Min what happened right away. Instead, she carefully dropped the liquid into the container and set it on the equipment for thorough mixing and heating.
After completing these steps, she took off her sterile suit and left the lab.
Zhao Min, waiting anxiously at the door, rushed to her. “Look! Xinrui Pharmaceuticals is launching the same anti-tumor drug as us, and they’re pricing it at half our cost!”
Though Zhao Min didn’t understand sales, she knew that if Xinrui did this, Gu Medical Company’s drug wouldn’t sell.
Brown Group’s drugs were effective but expensive. Many people used Gu Corporation’s drugs to maintain their health. This was a significant source of income for Gu Corporation. A strong competitor would heavily impact them.
Song Fan keenly noticed that in the photo posted by the rival account, the experimental content on the conference room’s big screen matched Wu Yong’s earlier research. freēwēbηovel.c૦m
She quickly opened her computer, zoomed in on the opponent’s photo, and enhanced it. Sure enough, one picture showed a handwritten formula.
“This… isn’t this Wu Yong’s handwriting? I’ve seen this paper in the conference room. How did Xinrui get it?” Zhao Min began searching frantically.
She finally found Wu Yong’s manuscript among a pile of documents.
Staring at the paper, Song Fan felt a heavy weight in her heart.
The worst fear in a lab had come true: Gu Medical Company had a mole.
