The doctor, pulled by Jiang Xun, looked at him with a self-doubting expression. "This... I don't know. I've never encountered this situation before. His heart rate is abnormally low, not like a normal person's. His body temperature is also abnormally high, not like poisoning, but not entirely unlike it either..."
Hearing this, Jiang Xun's brow furrowed deeper.
He understood that You Rong's condition was not like that of ordinary people, and it was reasonable for the doctor to be at a loss.
Seeing You Rong writhing in pain, Jiang Xun couldn't bear it. He said, "Doctor, he looks so uncomfortable. Can you at least prescribe some medication to alleviate his pain?"
The doctor shook his head. "No, I already gave him sedatives and tranquilizers yesterday, at five times the normal dosage. But they had no effect on him."
Jiang Xun's heart sank upon hearing this.
Could You Rong's pain only be endured by himself?
The doctor sighed. "For someone like him... he can only hope for the best. You should prepare yourself mentally. I need to go check on other patients."
Not long after the doctor left, Jiang Wanwan pushed open the door. Seeing Jiang Xun's serious expression and having just seen the doctor go downstairs, she guessed that You Rong's condition was not good.
Jiang Wanwan patted Jiang Xun's shoulder and comforted him, "Don't worry too much. I believe Mr. You will get better, because he still needs to save Miss Lin!"
Mentioning Lin Qinghe, Jiang Xun's expression became even more dejected. "I don't know how Miss Lin is doing. She was brought back by the R organization. Will she..."
"No! Don't think such things! Miss Lin is a good person. I believe good people are rewarded. She will be fine!"
Jiang Xun nodded heavily, sharing the hope that Lin Qinghe would be alright.
Jiang Wanwan sat down beside him and suddenly remembered something. She looked around, lowered her voice, and said, "By the way, more and more zombies are gathering outside the base now. But it's strange, they're just gathering, not attacking anyone. They've been roaming outside the base, as if waiting for something. Do you think... this has something to do with Mr. You?"
Jiang Xun pondered for a moment. "It should be related to my brother. Before, when we were at the warehouse in Jiang City, the zombies would also gather at night."
"That's true..."
The siblings were both preoccupied, worrying about Lin Qinghe and You Rong, and also anxious about whether the gathering zombies outside would cause trouble.

G City, R Organization Base.
Lin Qinghe, who had been lying in the hospital room for three days, was gradually recovering her complexion. She had just finished eating when the door to the room opened, and Jiang Li entered.
Jiang Li walked in, sat down, adjusted his glasses, and said sarcastically, "Professor Lin, I didn't expect us to meet again so soon. But what I didn't expect even more was that you've become a traitor to the organization."
Lin Qinghe was quite displeased with the petty and vindictive Jiang Li.
Whether it was her or the original host, Jiang Li had always been one to backbite or cause trouble. Sudancase.com
Lin Qinghe raised an eyebrow, calmly and composedly reached for the grapes that had just been brought over, and ate them at a leisurely pace, saying with a light smile, "Yes, I didn't expect to meet again so soon. I may have become a traitor to the organization, but so what? I still managed to make the organization treat me well. As for Assistant Jiang, tsk tsk tsk... after so long, you still haven't improved at all. I'm no longer in the lab, and you still haven't become the deputy director? Hmm?"
Her words struck Jiang Li's sore spot. Jiang Li's face turned completely dark, and he gritted his teeth in anger. "Lin Qinghe! What do you have to be so smug about! Just you wait. Once you're no longer useful, I'll see how good your end will be!"
"No one can predict the future. As for now, I've become a traitor, and I'm living better than you. Aren't you so jealous you're about to go mad?"
Her sarcastic words made Jiang Li leap up like a startled cat. He threw his notebook onto the ground. "Lin Qinghe! Don't push it too far!"
Lin Qinghe's smiling face suddenly turned grim. She shouted outside, "Someone! I want to see Gu Hesheng!"
The person outside came in, looked at Lin Qinghe, then at Jiang Li. They vaguely knew that Jiang Tao attached great importance to Lin Qinghe and worried about any trouble. They immediately turned and went to find Gu Hesheng.
Within five minutes, Gu Hesheng arrived.
Gu Hesheng, like Lin Qinghe, had a grim expression. "You want to see me?"
Lin Qinghe pointed at Jiang Li and said directly, "Get someone else to be responsible for recording the data I provide daily. Jiang Li has a personal grudge against me and smashed his notebook after only a few words. Frankly, I don't care if the person is changed, but aren't you afraid of affecting the data records regarding You Rong... then suit yourselves."
As soon as Lin Qinghe spoke, Jiang Li's face changed drastically. Just as he was about to explain, Gu Hesheng glanced at the notebook on the floor. Already frustrated, he exploded at Jiang Li.
"Jiang Li! You are my student, whom I personally trained. Don't you understand what's important and what's not? Get out! If you act so recklessly again, I will report you to the organization and have you removed!"
"Director Gu, I..."
Gu Hesheng didn't give Jiang Li a chance to explain. "What is it! Get out! Get someone else to come in!"
Jiang Li's face turned pale and then flushed as he was scolded. Especially when he caught Lin Qinghe's smiling gaze, he was furious.
Seeing Jiang Li still standing there, Gu Hesheng became even angrier. "Why are you just standing there! Get out!"
Jiang Li gritted his teeth, glared at Lin Qinghe, and said through gritted teeth, "Yes, Director Gu, I'll leave now."
After Jiang Li left, Gu Hesheng gave Lin Qinghe an equally stern look. "Someone else will come in shortly. You'd better honestly hand over the data on You Rong's physical changes, or don't blame me for being impolite."
Lin Qinghe smiled. "Don't worry, Director Gu. I will cooperate fully."
Gu Hesheng snorted and turned to leave.
Lin Qinghe lowered her eyes slightly, her gaze flickering.
She couldn't escape now, but it was nice to cause them some trouble.
Time flew by, and another five days passed.
Apart from her fractured right wrist, Lin Qinghe's other injuries had mostly healed. Jiang Tao had specifically come to see her that morning. Lin Qinghe had racked her brains to trick him, but Jiang Tao's words had all expressed dissatisfaction. She feared she wouldn't be able to fool him for many more days.
When she was alone, Lin Qinghe could no longer maintain her composed demeanor. She was now frowning.
She wondered how You Rong was doing. Had he regained his consciousness?
If You Rong didn't come soon, she would be as good as dead!
-------------------------------------
That night, Jiang Xun was dozing off by You Rong's bedside. Suddenly, You Rong on the bed opened his eyes.
Jiang Xun looked up groggily and met You Rong's pair of blood-red eyes. He was startled. Seeing You Rong sit up with a grim expression, he swallowed nervously and asked in a small voice, "Bro... you're awake. Are you lucid now? Do you still recognize me? I'm Jiang Xun! And Miss Lin, do you remember her?"
