As Gu Chen listened to the description over the phone, his frown deepened, and Song Fan knew that things were probably bad.

When Gu Chen hung up, she didn’t rush to ask but waited for him to speak first.

He only said a few words, “Wu Yong is missing.”

“That’s it?” Song Fan was puzzled. How could someone go missing without leaving a trace?

Gu Chen shook his head, “Gu Medical Company’s new drug is in the research stage. Wu Yong practically lived in the lab, only going home to rest once a week. He went home the day before yesterday but didn’t show up for work yesterday. The company sent people to his house, but he wasn’t there.”

Song Fan’s heart sank. Gu Medical Company must have already checked the surveillance and other places before contacting Gu Chen.

She probed, “As far as I know, Gu Medical Company has been researching anti-tumor and anti-cancer drugs these past few years, right?”

This was top secret information, and she shouldn’t have asked.

But Gu Chen didn’t hide it, “The reason Wu Yong stayed with the company, aside from personal reasons, was because he was researching the same drug as the Brown Group.”

Clearly, Gu Chen had thought of something and decided to be upfront.

“The Brown Group has monopolized the market, and once the drug enters the country, its price increases tenfold,” he said helplessly. “Tumor patients already spend a lot on treatment and maintenance; few can afford this drug. Gu Medical Company received government support and started researching this drug a few years ago, but progress has been slow.”

Song Fan understood his point, especially since these drugs were imported. Many patients had to give up treatment because they couldn’t afford the medicine.

Developing such drugs wasn’t easy, and the Brown Group would certainly suppress competitors. No wonder they had sent Charlie to get close to Gu Chen. It seemed they had known about Gu Medical Company’s efforts for a while.

Both were silent for a moment before Song Fan said, “It might be the Brown Group. I have some connections abroad, and I’ll find someone to help. My Third Brother can definitely help too.”

Hearing this, Gu Chen’s expression relaxed a bit.

Song Fan’s physical fitness was excellent. Despite the exhaustion and numerous minor injuries she sustained on the island, she had fully recovered after a few days of rest in the hospital.

During this time, Gu Chen helped her return Cao Lei’s earring to his family. Cao Lei’s family only had an elderly grandfather with dementia, who no longer remembered having a grandson named Cao Lei, thinking his grandson was still just a toddler.

In the end, Gu Chen paid for the grandfather’s care in a nursing home. Song Fan had told him that Cao Lei had taken a bullet for her, and Gu Chen was willing to help take care of his family.

When Song Fan learned this, she remained silent for a long time before saying, “Maybe it’s for the best. The old man is confused. Thank you.”

Gu Chen knew she was hurting, so he patted her hand.

“I want to be discharged,” Song Fan said cautiously. “I’m fine now. Can you help me with the discharge procedures?”

Song Fan had tried to get discharged before, but the hospital staff, clearly following Gu Chen’s orders, had found numerous excuses to keep her from leaving.

“You were on the island for so long and got injured, including a gunshot wound. Stay in the hospital for a while,” Gu Chen said, clearly unwilling. He gently hugged her shoulder and helped her lie down again.

But Song Fan didn’t want to stay in bed anymore, “I’m practically growing roots here. I’ve been hurt worse before, and still…”

“That was before,” Gu Chen said, looking at her intently. “Now you have me. I worry about you, so you need to keep resting.”

Hearing his words made Song Fan blush again. She realized she still didn’t understand Gu Chen well; his sweet words came so easily now.

But thinking about the situation at home, she insisted on being discharged. Finally, she and Gu Chen made a deal: she promised to come back for check-ups every week, and Gu Chen agreed to let her leave the hospital.

When Song Kai heard that Song Fan was being discharged, he volunteered to help and happily brought her home.

As soon as they opened the villa door, they saw Charlie sitting on the living room sofa, with four black-clad bodyguards around him.

Charlie’s usual smile was gone, replaced with a cold expression, looking every bit the part of a mafia boss in a negotiation.
