Rebirth: He refused to Divorce Again-Chapter 1222: Nie Luan Actually Used Himself for Experiments
After those two people left, the laboratory returned to the tranquility from a moment ago.
However, the glass door was quite peculiar.
Gu Qiaoqiao stood in front of the door, scrutinizing it and the glass, as if they had melded into one. There wasn’t any doorknob to be found, and she hadn’t noticed how those two had opened the door earlier.
She vaguely recalled that they had pressed a series of numbers on the door.
Gu Qiaoqiao looked towards the door.
Unfortunately, it wasn’t visible to the naked eye, so Gu Qiaoqiao placed her hand on the glass door.
Her fingers emitted spiritual energy as they traced along where she had vaguely seen before, and then she felt a section with some orderly protrusions, like buttons on a telephone.
Gu Qiaoqiao realized these were numbers, but she didn’t press them because she didn’t know the code to open the door, so she had no choice but to give up. Meanwhile, Xiao Wen had already looked around the basement.
Then she came to Gu Qiaoqiao’s side and whispered, "Qiaoqiao, I heard from Elder Nie that Nie Luan is apparently experimenting on living humans."
"What? Experimenting on living humans? No way?" Gu Qiaoqiao was stunned for a moment.
Although Archive Room No.1 is a special entity, it still belongs to the state. Would they really do such things?
Xiao Wen saw that Gu Qiaoqiao had misunderstood and quickly explained, "Qiaoqiao, it’s not what you think. Nie Luan didn’t use others for experiments; he used himself."
Gu Qiaoqiao’s eyes widened in amazement once more. Only upon hearing this did she understand why Elder Nie had told Xiao Wen about this matter.
Telling Xiao Wen was effectively telling herself.
Telling herself also meant that perhaps Qin Yize would know.
And in this world, the only ones who could stand on equal footing with Nie Luan were Gu Qiaoqiao and Qin Yize, so he should listen to either of them.
Although the relationship between this grandfather and grandson wasn’t very good, at such a critical moment, Elder Nie still cared about his grandson.
But this kind of matter had to remain confidential externally, and at this moment, Qiaoqiao really had no reason to stop Nie Luan from doing it.
The matters of this world are just like that; everyone is an ordinary person, and no one can resist the temptation of the elixir of life. It’s been this way since ancient times. Qin Shihuang even sent countless people to seek the elixir of life.
Not to mention one myth after another.
Now, with a living subject right in front of him, Nie Luan certainly wouldn’t let the opportunity pass.
Thinking of this, Gu Qiaoqiao’s admiration for her family’s Qin Yize rose another notch.
Qin Yize almost knew many of Dongfang Yu’s and her own secrets, but he had never been swayed by these secrets, treating them with a calm detachment, as if a breeze had passed by without a trace.
His heart never held these things; it should be filled with family and country, and of course, Gu Qiaoqiao.
Thinking of this made Gu Qiaoqiao feel a bit happy, but this wasn’t the place to express such emotions, so she quickly restrained the smile on her face.
Xiao Wen didn’t notice any of this. She glanced once more at the laboratory and furrowed her brow, saying, "Dongfang Yu is not someone to be trifled with. I don’t know if he’ll continue to let Nie Luan manipulate him like this, but if one day he resists, the consequences will be terrifying."
Hearing Xiao Wen’s words, Gu Qiaoqiao was taken aback.
She hadn’t thought about this issue.
In her instinct, Dongfang Yu no longer had any chance of turning the tables.
But on the flip side, is there such an absolute thing in this world?
Especially for an old monster like Dongfang Yu, looking at his half-open and half-closed eyes earlier, it always seemed like he was brewing something, even though he currently appeared incapable of any resistance.
But that doesn’t mean it won’t happen in the future.
Right now, Gu Qiaoqiao has no means, even if she wants to secretly take Dongfang Yu away, she can’t get into this glass house.
Moreover, the serious concern is that if she does take Dongfang Yu away, how can she ensure he won’t seek revenge on Nie Luan?
To some extent, at that time, Nie Luan indeed helped her by taking away this huge trouble. Although at the time Dongfang Yu had promised not to cause trouble for the Gu Family again, Gu Qiaoqiao did not trust Dongfang Yu’s character.
So, it’s considered a favor owed to Nie Luan.
She naturally couldn’t cause trouble for Nie Luan.
It’s essential to come up with a safe plan.
Because Xiao Wen brought her here not to rescue Dongfang Yu, but to stop Nie Luan’s experiments on himself.
Xiao Wen said in a low voice, "Qiaoqiao, let’s head back first."
Gu Qiaoqiao nodded gently, taking one last look at the scene inside the glass room. For some reason, she felt as if there had been a faint gaze lingering on her earlier. Could it be that Dongfang Yu had awakened?
Gu Qiaoqiao’s heart tightened, and she looked once again, calming slightly after a few breaths.
Dongfang Yu, bound to the operating table, remained motionless.
Discarding the odd emotions from earlier, Gu Qiaoqiao swiftly followed Xiao Wen out of there.
The two of them retraced their steps back to Gu Garden. It was already past ten o’clock at night.
Both Xiao Wen’s and Gu Qiaoqiao’s courtyards were dark, and even Lian Yuhong thought the two had gone to sleep and didn’t come over. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺
Xiao Wen and Gu Qiaoqiao quietly entered the house.
The two remained silent for a while, and then Gu Xiaoqiao suddenly asked, "Sister Xiao Wen, what do you think can stop Nie Luan?"
Such experiments are too terrifying.
Too dangerous for Nie Luan.
Xiao Wen shook her head, "It’s hard to come up with a plan now. Nie Luan is already a bit obsessed, and it’s the critical moment. Trying to stop him would be utterly unrealistic."
"Then take Dongfang Yu away," Gu Qiaoqiao said in a deep voice.
"No, we can’t take him away for now. If we do, it might put Nie Luan in danger, and the outcome would be disastrous," Xiao Wen shook her head and disagreed.
"Actually, I’m worried that Dongfang Yu is gathering strength for a fatal blow. If so, it would be very dangerous," Gu Qiaoqiao said worryingly.
"Indeed, Sect Leader Nie is worried about the same. He has been anxious these past few days, waiting for you two to come back, but he didn’t dare to contact you directly. After all, Qin Yize definitely wouldn’t want you involved in this matter."
"Sect Leader Nie still cares greatly about his grandson," Gu Qiaoqiao said softly.
"I’ve heard that Nie Luan seems to have some issues with Sect Leader Nie," Xiao Wen’s eyes flickered as she looked at Gu Qiaoqiao, "I wasn’t planning to tell you, but since this involves Dongfang Yu’s whereabouts and Nie Luan’s crazy actions, I think you should be aware of these. Since you’ve entered the Mystic Sect, it’s best to have an understanding of what’s happening within the sect."
