Chapter 1685 - Putting Life and Death on the Line

The light in Wen Shouyi’s eyes dimmed.

Gu Nianzhi was so evil that she had set a trap that she had no choice but to fall into.

How was she supposed to answer that?

The Qin family had indeed been a great help to her. Her current status was entirely due to the Qin family.

He Chengjian raised an eyebrow and looked Wen Shouyi up and down as if thinking about the feasibility of this proposal.

Qin Yaoguang saw this and quickly said, “Shouyi can do it too! She is indeed young and healthy! If Gu Nianzhi doesn’t want to, Shouyi will! — isn’t that right, Shouyi?”

Wen Shouyi was helpless, but the situation was better than anyone else. She couldn’t be compared to Gu Nianzhi, who was capricious and had a backer. She could do whatever she wanted and could directly say no.

Wen Shouyi lowered her eyes and smiled bitterly. “Old Mister Qin is indeed too old. It’s really not good to let him be attacked by a subsonic weapon for such a long time. It’s better for me to go. I believe in Aunt Qin. Aunt Qin will definitely cure me.”

“Good girl! It’s not a waste that my father and I love you.”Qin Yaoguang turned around and came to Wen Shouyi’s side. She held her hand tightly and said with great heartache.

He Chengjian nodded. “Alright, then Wen Shouyi should go in as well. You can stay with Qin Baye inside. If anything happens to him, you can take care of him while you’re at it.”

“Ah?”Qin Yaoguang suddenly turned her head and looked at He Chengjian. “Didn’t you ask Shouyi to replace my father? Why are both of them inside?”

He Chengjian picked up the Golden Brandy Teacup on the coffee table in front of him, blew on it lightly, and took a sip, he said, “When did I say that I would let her replace me? But since she took the initiative to go, I Won’t stop her. With an additional experimental target, the data will be more complete. — Okay! It’s a deal.”

Qin Yaoguang’s heart was as bitter as if it had been soaked in Coptis juice. It was simply unbearable.

However, looking at He Chengjian’s cold and vicious appearance, she actually still loved him. Moreover, her love for him did not decrease in the slightest but instead became even more intense.

This man was really going to get her.

Qin Yaoguang sighed in her heart. She reached back and caressed Wen Shouyi’s face. “Good girl, you can stay with my father. I’ll definitely cure you both.”

Wen Shouyi closed her eyes. She knew that Qin Yaoguang was unreliable.

She could only take this opportunity to win Old Master Qin over. She would settle the score with Gu Nianzhi after she recovered from her injuries.

She looked up abruptly and glared at Gu Nianzhi.

Gu Nianzhi heaved a sigh of relief and said, “That’s great. There’ll be two of us. One can test director Qin’s treatment method, and the other can test mine.”

Wen Shouyi gritted her teeth and said coldly, “Don’t get your hopes up. Old Master Qin and I went there for Aunt Qin. If you want to do an experiment, find someone else!”

She would never do anything for Gu Nianzhi.

Gu Nianzhi didn’t take it seriously. She smiled at He Chengjian. “General he, what do you think? Which one will be assigned to me for the experiment?”

Unexpectedly, He Chengjian turned to look at her and said with a smile, “Then I have no choice. If they don’t want to, I can’t force them to do the experiment for you, can I?”

Gu Nianzhi almost choked and coughed.

It was as if he hadn’t forced her just now!

Who was the one who said they wanted to do the experiment with living people?

Whether it was Qin Baye or Wen Shouyi, did they have the right to say no?

To play this game with her at this time.

Gu Nianzhi knew that He Chengjian didn’t completely trust her either.

Or rather, once his suspicions were aroused, it wouldn’t be easy to dispel them.

She clenched her fists and said stubbornly, “Then what should I do? I can’t find two living people to do the experiment with. General He isn’t willing to do it for you? If that’s the case, why should I be a villain in vain?”

She turned to look at He Zhichu’s room upstairs and said loudly, “Young Master He! I tried my best! It’s not that I’m unwilling to save you, but your father made things difficult for me and put the Qin family’s free will above your life and death. If you’re unhappy, go find your father!”

He Chengjian’s face instantly turned black from Gu Nianzhi’s anger.

“Gu Nianzhi! What did you say? !” He Chengjian glared at her. “When did I put the Qin family’s free will above my son’s life and death? !”

“They weren’t willing to give me the experimental materials just now. You said it yourself. You said you couldn’t force them. Isn’t that putting their free will above your son’s life and death?”

Gu Nianzhi argued with He Chengjian fearlessly.

He Chengjian stared at her for a while and suddenly laughed. “Okay, okay, okay! No one has ever dared to yell at me. You, Gu Nianzhi, are considered the first!”

“There’s always a beginning. You just have to get used to it,” Gu Nianzhi retorted bluntly. She was so angry that she couldn’t care less.

He Chengjian waved his hand and said, “Then I’ll let Wen Shouyi practice on you.”

He had agreed to let Gu Nianzhi use Wen Shouyi as a test subject.

Gu Nianzhi heaved a sigh of relief. She was about to say yes when Qin Yaoguang spoke again.

“No.”She objected firmly. “Let’s put it this way. My father is too old. Even if he was attacked by the infrasonic waves 24 hours a day in the ward, the damage he would suffer would be very different from that of the young master He.”

“People of different ages have different vital signs. Treatments that are useful to young people may not be useful to old people.”. And vice versa. “Therefore, my father is only going to be tied up. Shouyi is the one who can really let me test the treatment method.”

Qin Yaoguang looked at Gu Nianzhi coldly. “Gu Nianzhi, if you really want to joke about human lives, you have to find someone else. Wen Shouyi is the only suitable candidate to test my treatment method. “Otherwise, you can use my father as an experiment.”

She was certain that Gu Nianzhi would not use Qin Baye, an old man in his seventies, as an experiment.

Gu Nianzhi was indeed put in a difficult position.

She did not feel bad about Qin Baye’s age, but Qin Yaoguang’s words made a lot of sense.

Age did play a role in this treatment method.

But where was she going to find a young man around He Zhichu’s age?

Wen Shouyi coughed and glanced over at Huo Shaoheng, she said softly, “Actually, isn’t there a very suitable candidate over there? Since Mr. Peter is pursuing Miss Gu, he can’t let Miss Gu make things difficult for him, can he? Why Don’t Mr. Peter Help Miss Gu find someone to do the experiment?”

Gu Nianzhi’s face instantly turned cold when she saw that he was actually targeting Huo Shaoheng, she snapped, “Wen Shouyi! Are you trying to start an international dispute? ! Mr. Peter is the deputy chief of the Soviet Union and he’s conducting experiments on living people. Do you think your life is too long? Or do you think our country is too peaceful and there’s no war? !”

“The Committee of State Security (KGB) will kill you if you dare touch him!”

He Chengjian also felt that Wen Shouyi was too ridiculous.

Using Peter as an experiment, he really felt that his life was too long.

“Alright, how about I find someone else?” He Chengjian waved his hand. “Wen Shouyi will do the experiment for Qin Yaoguang.”

Gu Nianzhi was extremely conflicted.

She trusted Lu Jin’s method very much and knew that it would definitely work.

However, she had to convince He Chengjian, which was more difficult.

He Chengjian looked like he wouldn’t give up until he saw a rabbit. There was no evidence to support his words. He would only let her help He Zhichu if he saw the actual effect.

However, Gu Nianzhi felt that it was too cruel to simply find someone to accept this kind of experiment. She couldn’t get over this hurdle.

“General He, this isn’t good! Why don’t I use a computer to demonstrate it to you?”Gu Nianzhi was anxious and thought of an idea. “I’ll use a lab rat to do the experiment, and the effect will be the same!”

“How will it be the same? You have to use a living person as an experiment.”Wen Shouyi added fuel to the fire. “If we can use a lab rat, why would general He let us into the ward, right?”

She used He Chengjian’s words to shut Gu Nianzhi up, and Gu Nianzhi was speechless for a moment.

As the group was in a stalemate, a gentle and firm voice came from the corner of the room. “I’ll do it. I’ll stay in the ward for 24 hours. Then Miss Gu can use me as an experiment to test your treatment method.”

Everyone turned around and saw Xie Qingying slowly stand up from the single sofa in front of the window.

The sunlight shone in through the window, creating a golden border around her body.

He Chengjian was both surprised and delighted. “Is it Qingying? Are you really willing? !”

“Yes, I’m willing.”She walked over slowly and stood in front of He Chengjian. “General he, as long as you can save young master He.”

She had been listening in the corner for a long time and had finally pieced the whole thing together.

The power of love could make a woman disregard life and death.

Gu Nianzhi looked at her with mixed emotions, not knowing what to say.

Xie Qingying smiled at her. “Lawyer Gu, don’t worry. I’m doing this voluntarily, it has nothing to do with you.”

She could already tell that Gu Nianzhi had been put in a difficult position because she did not want to experiment on ordinary people.

She admired her innocence, but she had to save He Zhichu now. She couldn’t delay any longer.

“Lawyer Gu, Let’s start as soon as possible. I hope we can save young master He as soon as possible,” Xie Qingying said calmly.

Gu Nianzhi knew that He Zhichu’s condition wasn’t as serious as it seemed, but no one else knew.

Xie Qingying, on the other hand, didn’t have to suffer.

But other than that, she had no other way to convince He Chengjian.

“General He, what do you think?” She turned to ask He Chengjian.

He Chengjian had already returned to his normal self and nodded calmly. “There’s no time to lose. We’ll begin immediately. But before that, you need to sign a contract stating that you’re willing to participate in this experiment.”

He looked at them and slowly said, “After you enter, life and death are determined. No one is special.”
