Chapter 299: Her Grudge, Her Parents’ Grudge, Must Be Avenged…
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
In the capital city, after the plane landed, Nan Yan and Yun Jingshan were heading to the National Laboratory.
Old Madam Qin knew she had business to attend to, so she asked her to come to the Qin residence after she was done.
Keeping her promise to Old Madam Qin, Nan Yan and Yun Jingshan took a car to the National Laboratory.
In Yun Jingshan’s office, Nan Yan changed into the experimental attire she needed to wear for her work. Yun Jingshan reminded her, “Dr. Nan, when we go in later, you’ll be my assistant. I’ll provide you with some alone time. If anything goes wrong, I’ll notify you in advance.” “Alright,” Nan Yan nodded and pinched her brow.
“Let’s go; let’s not waste any time.”
With that, she picked up all the materials needed for the T-2 experiment and gestured for Yun Jingshan to lead the way.
Yun Jingshan glanced at Nan Yan, who had already embraced her role, and nodded in response. He walked ahead confidently.
The National Laboratory had strict rules, and outsiders were forbidden from entering. Even assistants had to wear identity badges to gain access.
Nan Yan was currently wearing an identity badge that belonged to one of Yun Jingshan’s former students. When Yun Jingshan had mentioned needing it, the student gave it to him without saying anything.
“Professor Yun, are you here for an experiment?” A member of the laboratory they encountered on their way greeted Yun Jingshan with a friendly smile.
Yun Jingshan nodded and said, “Yes, I have a small experiment that’s rather urgent and needs to be done first.’
“Oh, I see.” The person smiled again and asked, “Is Old Professor Yun feeling better?”
“It’s somewhat improved compared to before, but it won’t get much better. I can only try to minimize her suffering during her last days.”
“Professor Yun, don’t be too sad. Everyone experiences birth, aging, illness, and death. Just do your best…”
“Alright.” Yun Jingshan responded with a nod, clearly disinterested in continuing the conversation. “I still need to conduct my experiment, and I have to rush back to Jin city afterward. Let’s not chat for too long.”
After all, he was accompanied by Nan Yan, an outsider. Even though she was fully equipped and only her eyes were visible to the outside world, with his status, he didn’t want to take on overly detailed inspections. Swiping his own identity badge would be sufficient.
But if their cover were blown, it could lead to significant trouble.
“Well, why does Xiao Qi look so down today? Is she also worried about Professor Yun?” The person continued talking.
Nan Yan thought, “This person is really chatty!”
But since they had asked, not responding might raise suspicions. So she lowered her head slightly, nodded again, and spoke in a soft voice, “Yes.”
“Sigh, the uncertainties of life… Who would’ve thought that someone as good as Old Professor Yun would have to suffer like this in their old age…”
The person shook their head with a sigh, wanting to say more, but Yun Jingshan directly grabbed Nan Yan’s arm and coldly said, “Excuse us,” as he walked past.
“Hmm… Why do I feel like Xiao Qi has grown taller today?” The talkative individual who had been chattering all along looked puzzled as he watched the two of them pass by. Then he thought that maybe Nan Yan was wearing height-increasing shoes today.
Perhaps he was just being overly sensitive.
He pushed his glasses back up his nose, withdrew his gaze, and headed in the direction he needed to go.
“Dr. Nan, I apologize for that,” Yun Jingshan said as soon as they entered his laboratory.
“No problem,” Nan Yan replied calmly. “Mr. Yun, for the next hour and a half, I need complete focus without any interruptions. I hope you can secure this time for me.’
Yun Jingshan’s expression turned serious immediately. “Rest assured! I will do my utmost!”
When it came to his mother’s life, he couldn’t afford to be careless.
After Nan Yan gave him some final instructions, she entered the operating room with the prepared equipment.
She placed the suitcase on the laboratory bench and carefully began to unpack its contents one by one.
Nan Yan pursed her lips, her expression extremely grave.
Configuring the T-2 formula for the second time, once this vial of formula appeared, it was likely that the people from the M country would immediately become suspicious.
The days of tranquility were about to come to an end.
But…
Nan Yan furrowed her brows, and a cold and vengeful intent slowly swirled in her icy eyes.
Her grudge, her parents’ grudge, must be avenged…
Meanwhile, in the M country’s top laboratory on the western continent, Xi Shijin’s eyes revealed a dark and ruthless glint.
“You bunch of useless fools!”
“What did you all deliver to me with the formula in hand?!”
After all this time, there hadn’t been any progress in the research!
The President was starting to doubt whether he could actually develop the T-2 reagent.
Xi Shijin had been restless and sleepless during this period, constantly on edge.
If the President were to find out that he indeed lacked the ability to develop the T-2 reagent, all the honors and privileges he currently enjoyed would be revoked.
Even worse…
Xi Shijin didn’t dare to think about it.
If he were to bear the charge of deceiving the President, he couldn’t imagine the consequences he would face.
Xi Shijin’s gloomy and irritable voice resounded, “Even if you can’t develop
T-2, you should be able to formulate T-1, right?”
“I’ll give you another half month. Even if you don’t eat or drink and work yourselves to exhaustion in the laboratory, you must give me the T-1 reagent!”
He no longer dared to hope for the direct formulation of T-2. If they could provide him with the T-1 reagent, he could at least report to President Sir!
In the silent room, a slightly younger voice spoke, “Director, I heard that a member of the Lawrence family obtained a batch of T-1 reagent.”
“Are you sure?”
Xi Shijin’s expression changed abruptly, and he even took a few quick steps to approach the young scientist.
T-1 reagent, Nan Yan had initially developed a total of fifty vials. Due to its significant side effects, she considered it an unsuccessful research project. She then began researching the advanced version, T-2. The original T-1 reagent became a discontinued product, and she never reconfigured it.
He remembered that most of the T-1 reagent produced during the research had been used in experiments, and the remaining few vials had been collected by major laboratories for further research. There shouldn’t have been any left outside.
Furthermore, if someone possessed T-1 reagent, they would never give it to anyone else.
so…
Where did Lawrence family’s Young Master get his hands on T-1 reagent?
It seemed he needed to personally inquire about this matter.
And he couldn’t wait a minute longer.
He had to go right now.
A thirty-minute drive.
Xi Shijin arrived at the residence of Lawrence’s heir, Elvis.
Upon hearing that Xi Shijin wanted to see him, Elvis, who was informed by the butler, promptly had the butler invite him in. After all, Xi Shijin had suddenly been promoted to the highest laboratory three months ago and became a distinguished figure in front of President Sir. His status was extremely high.
In terms of both reason and sentiment, he couldn’t afford to offend him.
Xi Shijin approached Elvis, exchanged brief greetings, and then got straight to the point:
” Mr. Lawrence Jr., I’d like to know where you obtained that T-1 reagent you have.”
“That reagent, I acquired it from a mercenary on the Dark Realm.”
Elvis asked cautiously, “Mr.. Xi Shijin, is it possible that he stole that reagent from you?”
