Chapter 685: Chapter 684 Are You Really Willing to Take the Risk for Him?

“You really should call me Uncle Ling. I held you when you were two or three years old!” Ling Zhiwei looked at Wen Xin with affection in his eyes, full of loving glances.

“Back when your father was still alive, he and I had some interactions. Your younger brother had just been born…”

“This is not the time to talk about those things, Dad… There will be another chance to have a good, private chat with Wen Xin later.”

Ling Yichen timely stopped Ling Zhiwei from saying more, feeling that it was inappropriate to bring up Wen Xin’s parents’ issues amidst the crowd.

Ling Zhiwei understood the implication in Ling Yichen’s words, nodded his head, “Right, this really isn’t the place to say so much, but no matter what, it’s good that you are back!”

Wen Xin, carrying her backpack, smiled softly and nodded faintly. She hadn’t expected that revealing her identity today would bring out so many acquaintances; it seemed she really knew too little about these people in Beijing.

“Old Master Ling’s condition has stabilized now, so I will leave first. I still have some matters to attend to.”

Wen Xin picked up her backpack and turned to leave, with Ling Yichen following behind to escort her to the stairwell.

“I won’t accompany you downstairs. I see Mr. Ma is also here, so I won’t involve myself in your matters.”

Ling Yichen’s tone carried a hint of mystery, eliciting a slight smile from Wen Xin, “You’re exaggerating as usual. I’ll be going now.”

Just then, the elevator doors slowly opened, releasing several doctors, among whom was Sun Miao, an old acquaintance of Wen Xin.

Sun Miao’s expression stiffened slightly upon seeing Wen Xin but quickly returned to normal. She gave Wen Xin a slight nod before hastily leaving with the group of doctors.

Knowing about the personal grudge between Wen Xin and Sun Miao, Ling Yichen watched Wen Xin and smiled gently. “I heard Sun Miao has returned to the operating table and isn’t as showy as before.”

Wen Xin glanced in the direction Sun Miao had left; her lips curled slightly, her tone cool, “Seriously speaking, her medical skills don’t match her arrogance. She still needs a lot of practice.”

Even though Wen Xin had previously healed Sun Miao’s arm, she hadn’t confirmed Sun Miao’s medical skills but rather acted out of urgency. Having one more doctor meant giving more people a chance to survive. Wen Xin had acted solely for the sake of the injured.

Hearing Wen Xin’s tone and thinking of Nan Xu’s medical skills, Ling Yichen couldn’t deny Wen Xin’s words. He had heard from Nan Xu that even her medical skills seemed negligible before Wen Xin.

Especially just now, being able to make Old Master Ling regain consciousness instantly with just three needles, he believed that was something nobody else could achieve.

“I’m leaving now.” The elevator doors opened again; Wen Xin got on and waved to Ling Yichen before the doors slowly closed.

Upon returning outside Old Dong’s ward, Wen Xin saw Sun Ning sitting in the hallway, while Ma Wenyuan was no longer in Old Dong’s room.

“How is the situation?”

“It’s not very good. Old Dong has entered a comatose state. I’ve tried to wake him, but I’m powerless due to the effect of the virus.”

“This virus won’t kill a person in a short time, but it will cause a coma. If the coma lasts too long, the person will enter a hibernation state.”

“The person who injected him with the virus probably didn’t intend to kill him, but rather wanted him to compromise. It’s just a pity that he would rather remain in a coma than compromise, which is why things have come to this,”

Sun Ning picked up the check-up report next to him and handed it to Wen Xin. Wen Xin glanced at it indifferently and then handed it back to Sun Ning.

“Have you really decided to take this risk for him?”

Wen Xin looked at Sun Ning uncertainly, having heard some details about the situation in Independent State from Moore.

Since the Jason family and Wen family had been bombed one after another, the elders of Independent State and the Wen family were both becoming eager to seize the initiative; they were stirring things up, and the domestic affairs of Independent State were somewhat chaotic.

Alfredo’s situation was also very passive, and it would have been unlikely to protect Sun Ning if something happened to him.

“I have my own method. The matters of Independent State have nothing to do with me; all I want to do is conduct research. If this man simply had a common illness, I might not spend too much effort on it, but now the situation is different…”

As Sun Ning spoke, his eyes sparkled. Seeing his expression, Wen Xin felt that something was a bit off.

“This antiviral agent of yours, it hasn’t undergone human trials yet, has it?”

Looking into Sun Ning’s eyes, Wen Xin tentatively asked. The next second, she saw the confirmatory answer in Sun Ning’s eyes – she had guessed right.

Now Wen Xin finally understood why Sun Ning was excited; in her eyes, Old Dong was now a living human test subject.

“No… no, I admit it, my antiviral agent really hasn’t undergone human trials, but I have tested it countless times on mice, you can trust me!”

Sun Ning looked at Wen Xin with a resolute expression. He wouldn’t risk anyone’s life; he and those psychopaths of Independent State were different – he wouldn’t sacrifice human lives to gain experimental results.

He would only conduct his experiments on mice, and he would ensure the stability and accuracy of the experimental data.

Hearing Sun Ning mention mice, Wen Xin suddenly thought of those absurd demands that Ma Wenyuan had talked about, and she could understand why an animal cremator was needed.

“Alright, I believe you. Is there something I can do for you?” In order to help Sun Ning obtain what he wanted, she was willing to use her own privileges or do whatever was within her power to smuggle Sun Ning into Independent State and miraculously bring him out.

“It’s better if fewer people know about this. The less anyone knows, the safer I am. Don’t worry, give me three days, and I’ll be back,”

“I think there are some secrets in this old dean that could be useful to you. Princess, once I cure her, you must promise me a reward!”

Watching the reward-seeking Sun Ning, Wen Xin unexpectedly smiled lightly, then nodded, “As long as you safely return and cure him, I will promise you a reward.”

Wen Xin was always very generous to her own people, and she certainly would not make an exception for Sun Ning. If it was within her capabilities, she would definitely agree to the reward.

“Then let’s go,” Sun Ning stood up with his hands in his pockets, his movement relaxed as he walked ahead of Wen Xin.

Following behind, Wen Xin was looking down at her phone. It was a message from Mu Chengxi, telling her that he was already waiting outside People’s Hospital for her.
