Chapter 446: He Can’t Die
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Watching Song Fan’s departing figure, Jason felt a bit disappointed.
He looked longingly at the door of the hospital room, still feeling a bit down. If only she had stayed to chat for a bit.
“She’s gone, and you’re still staring?” Charlie smirked at him. “Dear Second Brother, you’re finally awake. You have no idea how worried I’ve been. If you didn’t wake up soon, I would have been worried to death.”
“Worried that the formula isn’t complete and you can’t develop a new drug?” Jason snorted coldly. “Without me, you’re nothing.”
Hearing this, Charlie’s face twisted with anger. “You knew this would happen from the start, didn’t you? Was it deliberate? Did you and Song Fan set me up on purpose?”
Jason, though weak, forced himself to sit up. He didn’t want to appear defeated.
“If I had collaborated with Song Fan from the beginning, what would have become of you? I’ve always said you’re brainless. You haven’t made any progress all these years.” The disdain on Jason’s face grew. “Even if you survive various poisons, you’re just a test subject. Do you think you can rise to power?”
Hearing this, Charlie smashed the nearby water cup and pointed at Jason, saying, “Shut up, you shut up.”
Recalling the hardships of his childhood, Charlie’s face twitched involuntarily.
But Jason’s face showed no fear, only ridicule. “These are facts. Do you think others don’t know? You bastard!”
“You!” Charlie took a step forward and grabbed his collar. “You still rely on me to stay alive, don’t you? You’re not much better than this bastard!”
Jason let him pull, his smile unwavering. “No, I’m alive because of Song Fan. It has nothing to do with you.”
Mentioning Song Fan, Charlie seemed to remember something. He let go of Jason’s collar and smiled. “To be precise, you’re alive because of Gu Chen. If not for the snow lotus that can save Gu Chen, why would Song Fan save you?”
He leaned closer to Jason, speaking coldly. “You probably don’t know yet, but Song Fan poisoned you for Gu Chen.”
Although he had mentally prepared, hearing it from Charlie made Jason tremble with rage.
He had always seen Song Fan as his possession. After finally finding her, how could he let Gu Chen take her away?
Seeing the change in Jason’s expression, Charlie felt much better. He had investigated a lot about these two, but it seemed Song Fan had forgotten.
Thinking about the formula, Charlie regained his gentle smile. “Second Brother, we are family. If you want Song Fan, I will help you.”
“But you must help me too. We need to help each other, right?”
Jason snorted coldly but said nothing, indicating that Charlie should continue. Clearly, he took this proposal seriously.
“Song Fan only got one snow lotus. You should know that’s not enough to detoxify Gu Chen.” Charlie played with the ring on his hand, saying nonchalantly, “I’ve already sent people to find the snow lotus. I won’t let Gu Chen’s people find it through other means. So if he wants to live, he has to rely on us.”
“What do you plan to do?” Jason finally spoke.
He understood the change in Song Fan’s feelings for Gu Chen. To do so much for him, it seemed the young girl’s first love had blossomed. She was no longer the naive girl who only cared about friends.
Jason also wished Gu Chen dead, but he was more valuable alive.
“Gu Chen can’t die, you know that.” Jason hinted.
Charlie raised an eyebrow. He understood Jason’s point; Gu Chen was too important to the Brown Family to die. “But being half-dead shouldn’t be a problem, right?”
After he finished speaking, the two of them exchanged a glance and saw the smile in each other’s eyes.
When Song Fan returned to the Gu residence, Gu Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief.
“I need to go to the lab.” She only left this sentence before quickly heading to the laboratory.
Uncle Zhong, carrying freshly made chicken soup, brushed past Song Fan, who was walking quickly.
“Miss Song? Chicken soup, have some chicken soup before you go!” Uncle Zhong called out urgently.
Song Fan skidded to a stop, then turned back toward Uncle Zhong, took the bowl, blew on it, and drank it all in one gulp.
“Uncle Zhong, thanks, it’s delicious!”
