Chapter 988: Possible Contagion
As Little Qi got older, Sheng Xiao became much stricter with her. For example, he made sure that she slept in her own little room. Another example was that he would not let Little Qi act spoiled with him.
Once the boundary was established, Little Qi knew that her father was not like before, where he could be hugged anytime and anywhere.
Fortunately, her other family members still doted on her, so she quickly forgot about it and became the happy little girl she used to be.
However, she liked her father even more because she was always respectful and loving to her father.
Sheng Xiao would rather spend time with Mu Qiqi. Recently, this person had been on the law news professionally and had gained a large number of fans. How could he not panic?
Mu Qiqi could clearly feel the change in her man. Although she knew that Master Xiao doted on her in his heart, her daughter was still so young and was about to be rejected by her father. Mu Qiqi could not bear it.
“Little Qi is our daughter. Of course, I love her, but that’s not the same as the relations.h.i.+p between you. Because the person I’m going to spend the rest of my life with is you, so to me, the most important person in this life is you. Little Qi will have her husband’s love in the future, but you only have me, and I only have you.”
From then on, Mu Qiqi stopped saying such things because she knew that this man would know his limits.
He could be a good husband, and he could also be a good father.
..
Recently, during the rainy season, the murder rate had gone up in Jianchuan. Mu Qiqi and Feng Shanshan could not relax for even a moment in the laboratory.
The body that had just been delivered was of a young man in his early twenties who had fallen to his death.
The family did not believe that the deceased had committed suicide. They requested for a forensic autopsy, to get an answer.
However, the family did not tell the forensic doctor that their son was infected with HIV. Therefore, when the blood test Feng Shanshan ran showed that the deceased was sick, she hurriedly stopped Mu Qiqi and prevented her from performing an autopsy on the deceased.
“This person has an infectious disease.”
Mu Qiqi was stunned for a moment. When she thought of the glove that she had just broken, she was a little nervous.
“Don’t touch me, too.” Mu Qiqi quickly pushed Feng Shanshan away.
HIV did not lose its activity after the death of a victim. Under certain conditions, or even in a harsh environment, it could still regain its activity and continue to replicate when it encountered lymphocytes.
That was why Mu Qiqi was so nervous.
“You go and disinfect it first. I’ll go and talk to the family.”
Feng Shanshan pushed Mu Qiqi to the disinfecting room while she walked out of the laboratory and went to the family waiting area. “Although I understand that you want to find out the cause of your son’s death, why didn’t you tell us that your son had an infectious disease?”
“Is the life of a forensic doctor not important in your eyes?”
After the deceased’s parents heard this, they were a little helpless. “We thought that after he died, it didn’t matter anymore.”
“Do you think that the forensic doctor’s life is made of iron or steel?” Feng Shanshan rolled her eyes.
When Tang Yan heard this, he walked out of his office. He looked at Feng Shanshan and asked, “What happened?”
“The deceased that was just brought in still had warm blood. Xiao Qi was asked to do an autopsy and we found out that he had HIV. The couple didn’t say anything.”
“Go check on Xiao Qi first. I’ll deal with things here.” Tang Yan patted her shoulder to suppress the anger in her heart.
“You’d better pray that there are no wounds on my colleague’s hands.” Feng Shanshan said this and returned to the lab to carefully examine Mu Qiqi’s hands.
“It’s a blessing in disguise, but there are children at home. Go home tonight and disinfect properly.”
“I’m not going home tonight. I just called Master Xiao to tell him I’ll be sleeping in the office for two days,” Mu Qiqi said. “In case there’s any wound that I didn’t notice. The little girl likes to kiss me recently. I don’t want to regret it later.”
“I’m not saying this, but these people are really wicked.” Feng Shanshan was displeased. “I’ll take out the body first and then dissect it.”
Mu Qiqi knew that Feng Shanshan was worried, so she smiled and shook her head. “It’s fine.”
“Doesn’t your CEO have a specialized research team under him? Ask him to take you for a check-up and disinfection.”
“Got it.” Mu Qiqi nodded.
In the evening, Sheng Xiao personally drove to the branch office to pick Mu Qiqi up from work. After learning about the matter, he immediately sent Mu Qiqi to Zhongteng’s research lab.
This research lab existed for Mu Qiqi in the first place. Most of the things that were developed were for Mu Qiqi’s convenience. After that, Sheng Xiao applied for a patent and put it into production.
“Don’t touch me before the test is done.”
Sheng Xiao did not care about her. The husband and wife were one and there was nothing to hide.
“There’s nothing on you that I can’t touch.” Sheng Xiao held her hand and did not allow her to refute. He sent her directly to the laboratory.
After two hours of examination and disinfection, the researchers sent Mu Qiqi back to Sheng Xiao’s side.
“Don’t worry, President Sheng. We’ve completely disinfected Madam. Moreover, she won’t be infected with the virus.”
Sheng Xiao held Mu Qiqi’s hand and brought her out of the crowd. “Are you relieved now? Even if you’re really infected, we’re husband and wife. Anyway, we have Little Qi.”
“But I still don’t want to go home tonight. I want to go to your office,” Mu Qiqi tugged on Sheng Xiao’s arm and said.
“If you want to sleep in the office, can I take it as you sending me an invitation?” Sheng Xiao suddenly turned his head and smiled at the little woman beside him. “It’s not impossible, but I’ll stay with you.”
“You’re really not afraid of death at all.” Mu Qiqi could not persuade him. The couple did not go home that night.
Although Mu Qiqi felt that it was indeed making a big fuss out of nothing, only those in this profession who had come into contact with this virus would know what kind of feelings she had at that moment.
It would be a lie to say that she was not afraid of death. She had a happy and beautiful family and she did not want to lose everything because of this.
With this lesson, she had to be more careful in the future.
Master Xiao, on the other hand, did not seem to mind. He looked as if Heaven and h.e.l.l would follow him through life and death.
Mu Qiqi was very helpless, but she also loved him very much.
This was because she knew that even if she had an infectious disease and an incurable disease, Sheng Xiao would never give up on her.
When they were resting in the middle of the night, Sheng Xiao pressed her into the bathroom and kissed her non-stop as if he wanted to tell Mu Qiqi, “With me around, even if the king wanted to, he would not take you away because I would s.n.a.t.c.h you away from him!”
“You’re always so overbearing,” Mu Qiqi replied with an arm around his neck.
“So, you have to accompany me until I’m old.” With that, Sheng Xiao forcefully took Mu Qiqi and made her feel his presence in the misty bathroom. “Don’t let your imagination run wild. Otherwise, I’ll make it so that you won’t be able to get out of bed tonight.”
