Qiu Chen groaned from the blow, and when he glared at him, the gauze on his face trembled: "Su Xingyu, you're looking for death!"

"Tsk tsk, you really have squint?" Su Xingyu narrowed his eyes exaggeratedly and circled around him. "Or is it the beginning of cataracts? How about going to the hospital to see an ophthalmologist? I'll treat you, and I'll consider it as 'consolation money for your disfigurement'."

Qiu Chen's temple was throbbing and the bandage strap was clenched tightly.

The bodyguard behind him took half a step forward, but was forced back by Su Xingyu's glare. The fourth young master of the Su family was famous for his recklessness. Last time, he dared to use a fire extinguisher to smash Qiu Chen's car. He has never been afraid of anyone.

"Su Xingyu, just wait for me!" Qiu Chen gritted his teeth and unconsciously hid his plaster arm behind his back.

I just had a second operation for the broken bone last time. The doctor said that if I get hit again, I will be disabled for life.

"Grandpa is waiting." Su Xingyu raised an eyebrow. "I see you didn't spend enough time in the ICU last time. Let's spar again sometime, huh? Then I'll let you revisit your old place for a few days, and by the way, I'll also fix your other arm to make it symmetrical."

Qiu Chen's face turned pale and cold sweat oozed from his forehead.

He remembered the last time he was beaten and was still frightened. He glared at Su Xingyu and ran away.

Su Xingyu snorted, "Coward!"

Su Jinyao happened to see this scene when he came over. After Qiu Chen left, he said, "Your injury has only just healed, and you still have the mood to argue with others?"

Su Xingyu curled his lips: "Who told him to glare at me with his eyes slanted!"

......

The aroma of cream of mushroom soup wafts through the restaurant at Repulse Bay.

Bo Jingzhou prepared the meal, and Su Yutang and the four little treasures came.

Several people ate with grunts.

Zhang Suo came to look for him halfway, and Bo Jingzhou went out for a while.

"Boss Bo, sorry to bother you."

Zhang Suo really didn't expect that President Bo was so good at cooking. This scene was more shocking than seeing him defuse a bomb with his bare hands.

Bo Jingzhou glanced at him: "What's the matter?"

Zhang Suo withdrew his thoughts. He didn't know why President Bo asked him to check Tan Wanshuang, but he still said truthfully: "This is the information about Tan Wanshuang that you asked me to check."

Bo Jingzhou was not interested in these materials. "Let's get to the point."

Zhang Suo immediately said, "Boss Bo, I checked, and Miss Qin's relationship history is completely blank. There's no record of any intimate relationships in the past ten years, so it seems she's never been in a relationship."

He paused and added, "Of course, it's also possible that the godfather used his connections to erase the past, so it can't be found out."

Bo Jingzhou frowned: "What about sexual orientation?"

Zhang Suo's expression instantly became subtle. He cleared his throat and said, "This... I really can't find out."

"Ms. Qin is very sensible in public and doesn't have any substantial contact with people of the same or opposite sex in private. How about I ask her?"

Bo Jingzhou raised his eyes to look at him, as if he was looking at a fool, "Forget it, no need."

"Yes!" Zhang Suo felt relieved and almost saluted on the spot.

Asking him to ask a movie queen about her sexual orientation is more outrageous than asking him to negotiate in a pink suit.

Naturally, he didn't want to ask in his heart, he was not a pervert.

Zhang Suo continued, "But there is good news."

Bo Jingzhou looked over.

Zhang Suo continued, "There's been progress on Gu Xuan's condition. Our toxicologists have extracted the injection from her body and infer that she was injected when Liz took her away. We're now trying to develop a corresponding antibody. They say there's a chance that Gu Xuan will wake up in three days."

Bo Jingzhou raised his eyebrows slightly: "Okay."

Gu Xuan was able to wake up, which was also good news for Su Yutang.

Three days later, Su Yutang followed Bo Jingzhou to the hospital, because the toxicology expert had already developed the corresponding antibody and planned to try it on Gu Xuan today.

The smell of disinfectant filled the entire room. Su Yutang held Bo Jingzhou's hand, her fingertips cold.

Gu Xuan was lying on the hospital bed, her pale face looking bluish-gray under the light of the instrument.

Before use, toxicology expert Professor Chen said, "This is a newly researched toxicant. We're not sure if it will be effective. Maybe it will, maybe not. You should be mentally prepared..."

Eric frowned.

Professor Chen pushed up his glasses, which had fallen down, and continued, "Also, the neurotoxin Liz injected into her damaged her neurons. Even if this injection can restore her consciousness, it doesn't guarantee her absolute safety."

He pointed to the undulating curves on the monitor. "This toxin is extremely harmful to the body. In the worst case..."

"Try it." Eric interrupted him, swallowing the bitter taste with his Adam's apple rolling.

He walked to the bedside, gently held Gu Xuan's cold hand, and rubbed the needle holes on the back of her hand with his fingertips. "If she has any problems, I will go to accompany her."

After Ari said this, everyone fell silent.

Professor Chen nodded silently, "Then I'll start."

The moment the needle pierced the skin, Ai Rui suddenly closed his eyes and his fingers unconsciously clenched Gu Xuan's hand.

Su Yutang held her breath, and even her own heartbeat seemed to be clearly audible.

After Professor Chen finished the injection, all that was left was to wait.

Ai Rui waited for a while, and when he saw that Gu Xuan didn't respond, he became anxious: "Why haven't you responded yet?"

Professor Chen frowned and said, "Wait a little longer. The medicine needs time to take effect."

In the end, Professor Chen was disappointed and felt that the first antibody he developed would probably not be very effective.

He closed the medical kit and said, "I'm going back to the lab first. Let me know if anything happens."

At this moment, Gu Xuan's fingers suddenly twitched.

Ai Rui looked up suddenly and shouted in surprise: "It moved, she responded!"

He rushed to the bedside, almost sticking to Gu Xuan.

Professor Chen's footsteps suddenly turned back and he turned to check.

Ai Rui was even more excited than anyone else, "Xuanxuan, you're awake..."

But just as she finished speaking, Gu Xuan's fingers suddenly dropped weakly, and the curve on the monitor suddenly dropped back.

Ai Rui's smile froze on her face, and she watched helplessly as the vitality that had just appeared in her eyes faded away.

"What's going on?" He grabbed Professor Chen's white coat. "She clearly moved just now. I felt it!"

Professor Chen stared at the waveform on the screen, which had finally smoothed out, sweat breaking out on his forehead. "It looks like a synaptic stress response..."

He opened Gu Xuan's eyelids, and her pupils had lost focus. "It's not a true awakening."

"Xuanxuan..." Ai Rui's voice suddenly choked, tears falling on the back of her hand, "Wake up quickly, I am Ai Rui..."

"I see." Professor Chen suddenly whispered, "When the toxin destroys neurons, it preferentially attacks the areas that carry emotional memories. Her reaction just now might have been her subconscious resistance..."

"Resist what?" Eric's voice was as hoarse as sandpaper.

"Resist forgetting you," Professor Chen said. "I just said that the toxin she was injected with damaged her neurons. The worst-case scenario is amnesia. If she fails to resist, she'll most likely forget you. That's what Liz wants."
