Chapter 180: Find Out Where Yan Xi Is
Zhou Xu did not sleep the entire night because he was helping Yan Xi do the data recording. The data recorded would be used in the treatment later.
When Yan Xi arrived, she saw that he had two big dark circles under his eyes, so she said with concern, “Go and rest first. I’ll take care of things here.”
Zhou Xu’s eyes were already unfocused. He leaned on the table and said weakly, “The experimental results are on my table. All you need to do is just check the data again.”
“Got it.” Yan Xi changed into her white coat and opened the glass container, only to find that the white mouse inside was no longer breathing.
Her eyebrows jumped and she immediately shouted, “Zhou Xu! What’s going on?”
“What’s wrong?” Zhou Xu was instantly wide awake. He ran over to check and realized that all the laboratory rats were dead.
However, the white mice in the control group were still active and unaffected.
“They were fine yesterday when I left. It’s only been one night. How did they all die? Did someone get into the lab?”
“No. I locked the lab door yesterday.”
Yan Xi sighed, feeling troubled.
“Let’s find out what caused their death first. Then we can start the experiment again. This experiment is important to us. You have to make sure the data is foolproof.”
“Understood.”
“Go get some rest. I’ll take care of things here.”
“But…”
“No need.” Yan Xi interrupted him. “You’re not in a good state of mind now. Participating in the experiment will only make the results worse.”
Zhou Xu didn’t know what to say.
“Then I’ll get you lunch later. What do you want?”
“Bread and vegetable salad.” This kind of thing could be eaten quickly and was filling. Previously, when Yan Xi was busy, she relied on glucose to maintain her strength.
After Zhou Xu left, Yan Xi started to check the experiment steps from the beginning. After checking carefully, she realized that the potion was contaminated, which led to the failure of the experiment.
There were no problems with the design and operation of this experiment.
Yan Xi wiped the cold sweat off her face and heaved a long sigh of relief. She touched her pale face and continued to focus on the next experiment.
…
Around five in the afternoon, Gu Shen returned home early. Secretary Chen had ordered cola, popcorn, and other things needed for the movie. In addition, she also prepared a bouquet of pink champagne roses.
“President Gu, all girls like romance.” She was very excited. When she spoke, her tone was positive.
Gu Shen nodded and thanked her. Then, he sat in the home theater to wait for Yan Xi. This time, he specially changed into casual clothes.
He also sprayed some perfume on her body.
This was their first date, and it was memorable. He had to prepare it with care.
At around six o’clock, Yan Xi was still not home. Gu Shen pursed his lips and took a photo of the popcorn and coke to send to her.
But there was no reply.
He waited until six-fifty, but there was no reply.
Gu Shen frowned and called Yan Xi, but no one picked up. Gu Shen was stunned and called several times, but all he heard was that the line was busy.
At half past seven, Gu Shen’s expression darkened.
They had already discussed it before. Yan Xi said that she would be home before 6:30, but she did not reply or pick up the phone.
Gu Shen could not help but think of the worst scenario. He did not hesitate and called Gu Liu.
“Find out where Yan Xi is.”
Gu Liu first went to ask the driver in charge of picking Yan Xi up. When the driver found out that she was still in the Medical University and could not be contacted, he was also anxious.
Gu Liu hacked the surveillance cameras of the Medical University and found out that she was currently at the laboratory building of the Medical University.
This matched the whereabouts that Yan Xi had told Gu Shen before. As Gu Liu stared at the footage, he suddenly saw Zhou Xu going back into the building with a bag of food and milk.
Without hesitation, he immediately sent the footage to Gu Shen. At the same time, he roughly described Yan Xi’s schedule.
Knowing that Yan Xi was saft, Gu Shen heaved a sigh of relief and then felt a surge of anger.
His careful preparation for their first day was not appreciated at all, and he felt like he was a joke.
