Chapter 587: The 585 special effect medicine has been developed_1
Exhausted, Lu Qingyi walked out from the lab. Gently massaging her temple, her body began to sway a bit.
"Be careful."
Xu Boyan stepped forward to support Lu Qingyi, watching the exhausted girl with a pained expression.
"I’m fine... Oh....."
Just as Lu Qingyi said she was fine, a sudden wave of nausea hit her. She ran off, covering her mouth.
She crouched next to the sink, feeling the urge to vomit but couldn’t. A wave of discomfort washed over her stomach.
"What’s wrong, what’s wrong?"
Xu Boyan rushed to Lu Qingyi’s side, crouching down next to her with an expression of unprecedented panic.
Lu Qingyi suddenly vomited, leaving Xu Boyan flustered and worried.
"It’s nothing... "
Lu Qingyi gestured weakly, her voice barely a whisper.
She genuinely felt unwell.
Lu Qingyi knew she was experiencing morning sickness again. The medication had helped for a few days. Maybe overworking herself had triggered her nausea.
"Have some water."
Xu Boyan poured Lu Qingyi a glass of water and handed it to her, urging her to drink.
Seeing Lu Qingyi in discomfort tugged at Xu Boyan’s heartstrings.
"The medicine needs to be tested on a human subject, doctor. What should we do now?"
Xiaojin questioned Xu Boyan, coming out after noticing that Lu Qingyi did not return to the lab for a long time. He looked around, realizing that Lu Qingyi was nowhere to be seen, his confusion growing.
"Use Lu Jiayue for the experiment."
Having had some water, Lu Qingyi’s morning sickness had slightly subsided. She slowly gave the instructions.
The drug was indeed developed, but its side effects and reactions post-injection were unknown factors.
Many drugs in medicine require human trials before they can be widely used.
"Alright, I’ll handle it."
Xiaojin nodded in acknowledgment.
"Oh..."
Lu Qingyi covered her mouth and vomited again, her stomach churning.
"Doctor, is your morning sickness back?"
Xiaojin halted, turning back to Lu Qingyi, concern laced in his voice.
Lu Qingyi had experienced this before but had quickly gained control over it. Was it happening again?
Morning sickness?
Xu Boyan looked at Lu Qingyi curiously.
"Uh, Doctor, I’ll be heading out first."
Realizing that Xu Boyan was unaware of this, Xiaojin quickly excused himself, scratching his head as he hurriedly slipped away from the scene.
"What’s going on?"
Xu Boyan looked at Lu Qingyi. Sincerity filled his gaze as he frowned slightly, his expression turning serious.
"It’s just...morning sickness."
Lu Qingyi brushed it off casually, her tone indifferent.
"Why didn’t you tell me about something as significant as this?"
For a moment, Xu Boyan looked enraged. His gaze wasn’t as soft as it usually was, hinting at underlying anger.
Anything related to Lu Qingyi mattered to him. There were no small affairs.
"It’s no big deal, I’ll be fine after throwing up. It’s not necessary to inform you about small matters like these."
Lu Qingyi took a deep breath. She looked at Xu Boyan and explained herself.
It’s not a big deal. It’s just morning sickness. Not everything has to be conveyed to Xu Boyan. As a doctor herself, she was capable of handling these minor issues.
"Lu Qingyi, there is no ’small thing’ when it comes to you."
Xu Boyan stood up in anger.
He was angered that Lu Qingyi did not inform him about her discomfort.
"I... oh..."
As Lu Qingyi was about to reply, the overwhelming sensation returned and she vomited again. She was in great discomfort.
"What’s wrong?"
Xu Boyan, who was angry just a moment ago, immediately softened upon seeing Lu Qingyi’s discomfort. He crouched down next to her, his voice filled with worry.
He could never stay angry at Lu Qingyi for long.
All of his patience was used up on Lu Qingyi. Seeing her suffer made him feel the pain too.
"I’ll sit down for a while, I’m okay."
Lu Qingyi took out medication from her pocket and swallowed it. Her discomfort slowly subsided.
"Promise me that next time something’s up, you’ll let me know, okay?"
Xu Boyan gently stroked Lu Qingyi’s head, his voice soft.
Lu Qingyi nodded, "Okay."
"Once the antidote is successfully developed, make sure to get enough rest, okay?"
Xu Boyan was still gently rubbing Lu Qingyi’s head while speaking softly.
He felt a deep concern for her.
Lu Qingyi nodded, "Okay."
——
Lu Jiayue was locked in a separate empty room with nothing in it. Other than scheduled meal deliveries, she received no interaction.
Not even a single doctor or nurse was present.
Lu Jiayue was lying on the bed with a sarcastic smile etched onto her face.
Heh, she didn’t know how long she had left to live, but she didn’t want Lu Qingyi to meet the same fate. Subconsciously, she didn’t feel ready to accept this.
The door of the room suddenly opened. A doctor clad in protective gear walked in, followed by two nurses.
Lu Jiayue sat up, her gaze fixated on the three people in front of her, her demeanor unchanged.
"You’re Lu Jiayue, right?"
The doctor spoke slowly, looking at Lu Jiayue.
Lu Jiayue: "Yes, that’s me."
The room door was now closed. At that moment, Lu Jiayue was pondering how to escape.
"You’re very fortunate to be the first person to receive the antidote."
The doctor spoke slowly, looking at Lu Jiayue.
There was no envy, nor admiration.
Lu Jiayue was not a willing participant in the antidote trial.
The first person to receive the antidote?
Lu Jiayue was startled; she stared blankly at the doctor.
She knew what being the first person meant; to put it bluntly, she was a lab rat, a test subject.
If the antidote worked, she could be the first person to recover, if it didn’t work then her life was in jeopardy.
She was taking a gamble. Trying this drug put her life at risk; many variables were unknown.
"I’m sorry, but I didn’t agree to this."
Lu Jiayue stepped back slightly, looking at the doctor.
Experimental trials required the participant’s consent. She didn’t agree; she had the right to refuse.
"You don’t get to make that decision."
The doctor, who was naturally part of the medical organization, had a cold expression in his eyes as he looked at Lu Jiayue.
Of course, he knew that Lu Jiayue was kept in the dark about this. However, this was Lu Qingyi’s instruction and he had no option but to comply.
"Do you believe I can call the police? Or sue you?"
Lu Jiayue frowned a bit.
"Lu Jiayue, 19 years old, female. You knew you were infected but didn’t isolate yourself. You even tried to infect others. Your behavior is quite serious."
The doctor spoke slowly, his voice indifferent.
He already knew all the information about Lu Jiayue.
