Chapter 907: Why Should They Be The Scapegoats
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Under the white light, Jiang Xuecheng’s expression was cold. His sallow face looked especially terrifying in Executive Officer Lin’s eyes.
At this moment, Executive Officer Lin didn’t dare to have any other thoughts. He could only hope that Jiang Xuecheng could get rid of the virus in his body as soon as possible!
It had been almost an hour since he was poisoned by Jiang Xuecheng. Executive Officer Lin realized that what Jiang Xuecheng said was actually true!
His forehead began to burn, and even his consciousness was a little muddled!
However, because Jiang Xuecheng had cut his shoulder at the right time, Executive Officer Lin barely managed to stay awake because of the bone-piercing pain!
He was afraid this will go on!
Executive Officer Lin gritted his teeth. He didn’t care about the consequences anymore and directly asked Jiang Xuecheng about the antidote to the virus.
“Your Highness, my life is in your hands now. I promise I won’t do anything else. Can you give me the antidote to the virus first?!”
If it was really like what Jiang Xuecheng said, his body’s functions would continue to deteriorate, and he would even become a complete cripple. How could Executive Officer Lin accept that?
Jiang Xuecheng glanced at Executive Officer Lin indifferently. He snorted coldly and spat out his words indifferently.
“Do you think I can easily trust a person who has repeatedly defied me? If I give you the antidote, you’ll just sell me and Su Wan to Fiennes, right?”
“But–”
Executive Officer Lin’s heart was filled with anger and fear. He really couldn’t accept that he was going to become a cripple!
“Alright, no more buts! As long as you follow my instructions, I will give you the antidote to CHK Virus No.3.”
Jiang Xuecheng’s sharp eyes s.h.i.+fted towards Executive Officer Lin. His pair of deep black eyes flashed with a cold glint.
“However, before I can ensure the safety of Su Wan and I, I cannot trust you wholeheartedly. However, don’t worry, that virus has a incubation period. I will give you some alleviating medicine first.”
Only after confirming the safety of the emperor and Su Wan could he possibly get rid of that troublesome CHK Virus No.3?
Executive Officer Lin was terrified when he heard that. However, his life was in the hands of others, so how could he have the right to say no?!
Executive Officer Lin gritted his teeth and finally nodded.
“Good… then Your Highness must keep your word! You must leave me alive!”
“As long as you don’t do anything out of line, I won’t kill you.”
And what Jiang Xuecheng said was also half true and half false. Only he and Su Wan knew best that they didn’t know how to cure CHK Virus No.3 at all!
There were still a few doses of the antidote for CHK Virus No.3, but they were left in the hotel where he and Su Wan first stayed.
This was also one of the reasons why he had to come and deal with Executive Officer Lin.
Jiang Xuecheng was not sure if he had the virus or not. He was not a kind man. He did not show any mercy to the people who had once harmed him and Su Wan’s lives, so he used Executive Officer Lin as an test subject!
If Executive Officer Lin showed signs of being poisoned, Jiang Xuecheng would be able to confirm that the Dragon’s Blood in his body was the nemesis of the virus!
If the high priest died, it meant that there was no longer any supply of relief medicine!
And he wanted to save Su Wan’s life. If his blood was useful, then Jiang Xuecheng would not mind giving Su Wan blood!
…
Seeing Jiang Xuecheng’s handsome brows tightly knitted and his thin lips pursed into a straight line, Executive Officer Lin hesitated, wondering if he should ask Jiang Xuecheng for the relief medicine now.
Even if it could not be cured completely, it was still good to use the medicine that could alleviate the illness to delay its onset!
Perhaps the higher one’s position was, the more afraid one would be of the illness!
“Your Highness–”
Executive Officer Lin stammered as he spoke to Jiang Xuecheng. When he saw Jiang Xuecheng’s sallow face due to the disguise, he did not know why his vision turned black. He only felt that Jiang Xuecheng had been split into two…
In that instant, the sky and earth turned upside down!
Before Executive Officer Lin could react, he had already fallen to the ground, caught off guard!
Jiang Xuecheng glanced at Executive Officer Lin with disgust. At first, he was not sure whether this person was pretending to be unconscious and waiting for an opportunity to escape, or whether he had really fainted.
However, when he saw Executive Officer Lin fall so hard and almost hit his head, Jiang Xuecheng’s heart trembled. He finally understood that this guy had really fainted.
Could it be that…
The CHK Virus No.3 had taken effect?!
It was so fast!
Jiang Xuecheng was speechless. His heart was filled with mixed feelings. He did not know whether he should be happy or worried.
At least he could confirm one thing. Executive Officer Lin seemed to have really been poisoned by Su Wan’s blood!
Next, he would see if the Dragon’s Blood in his body would work.
Jiang Xuecheng’s brows furrowed. He stretched out his hand and placed Executive Officer Lin’s unconscious body on his shoulder, leading him outside.
The door suddenly opened, and the two burly bodyguards instantly looked inside.
“Sir–”
The two burly men lowered their heads and were about to greet him respectfully, but who knew that Executive Officer Lin wasn’t the one who strode out from inside!
And the officer they were talking about actually fainted for some unknown reason!
One of the square-faced bodyguards glanced at Jiang Xuecheng in bewilderment, wondering if Jiang Xuecheng had done something to Executive Officer Lin!
“What did you do to Executive Officer Lin?!”
“What can I do to him?”
Jiang Xuecheng indifferently glanced at the two underlings, his expression calm.
The two burly men looked at each other, not knowing whether they should believe Jiang Xuecheng’s words.
Jiang Xuecheng did not waste his breath on them. He directly pushed Executive Officer Lin to the square-faced man who had questioned him earlier. Then, he coldly said one sentence.
“The officer suddenly fainted. You guys first send him to the hospital for medical treatment.”
The square-faced man did not expect that Jiang Xuecheng would be like this. He sounded like someone in a high position!
This person was too arrogant!
Was he ordering them?!
He was just an ordinary citizen, what right did he have?!
Jiang Xuecheng did not expect that the two bodyguards did not have any sense of professionalism. At this time, shouldn’t they rush to the hospital with Executive Officer Lin?
Jiang Xuecheng frowned and his voice was as cold as ice.
“Why aren’t you going? If anything happens to the officer, the two of you will bear the responsibility!”
The square-faced man thought that what Jiang Xuecheng said made sense and immediately helped Executive Officer Lin forward.
Just as he took a step forward, he suddenly recalled an important matter.
“Just now, only you and the executive officer were in the same room! You have to come with us!”
Before the square-faced man finished his sentence, another empty-handed bodyguard immediately understood. Today’s incident was clearly not caused by them, so why should they be the scapegoats?!
Even if Jiang Xuecheng was innocent, they would first drag someone down with them!
That bodyguard thought that he had thought everything through and immediately wanted to stretch out his hand to pull Jiang Xuecheng’s arm!
