After another minute, he was done.

Of that minute, 55 seconds were spent by Lance thinking.

“Come on!” Lance suddenly stood up calling noisily, picking up Jiang He and making him play against Jiang Fulai.

Jiang He: “…”

With just a casual glance from Jiang Fulai, he allowed Jiang He to go first; Jiang He silently made a move—these two didn’t need to think while playing chess—

The game was decided in ten seconds.

Lance and Ji Heng squatted on the side, both looking at Jiang He who had lost in just seven moves: “…”

Lance murmured to Ji Heng, “Turns out you’re the real chatterbox.”

Ji Heng, suddenly burdened with a huge pot, started to doubt himself too.

After that, every day he’d find someone in the alley to play chess with, and the alley folk were beaten until they doubted their life choices.

Twenty minutes later.

After receiving a message from Jiang Fulai, Director Chen brought over Jiang Fulai’s tobacco along.

Then he bravely sat at the table, listening to Shen Qing repeatedly saying “Xiaojiang.”

Director Chen posted on his moments: [My time is up.jpg]

Ming Dongheng liked the post.

The next day, Saturday.

Chinese in the morning, math and English in the afternoon.

The Xiangcheng No. 1 Middle School monthly exam didn’t follow the same schedule as the college entrance exam.

It was past five when the English exam ended.

Tang Ming was among a group from class fifteen, discussing the math problem with Ning Xiao.

“Do you understand what they’re talking about?” Weng Qi quietly asked the others.

The math problem wasn’t too difficult this time, but Weng Qi hadn’t gotten to the last question.

Yang Lin glanced at Weng Qi without saying a word.

Pu Xiaohan didn’t look at Weng Qi, merely uttered “Oh” in a sudden realization, “So that’s how it is. So g\'(x) is just being compared with 3+a in the end? When a is greater than or equal to -3, g\'(x) is greater than 0, so the original function is monotonically increasing, right…”

Tang Ming looked at Pu Xiaohan with admiration, “…Right, there are three zeroes, the first question is very simple.”

Bai Lian walked at the very end, messaging Yan Lu on her phone.

When Yan Lu called Bai Lian, she was in an exam, and since the call didn’t go through, Yan Lu left her a message regarding her song.

Since Bai Lian was writing a song for Yan Lu, this involved a contract and the record company.

Time Entertainment had a sub-label record company, which included An Qi, but Sister Xin did not plan to sign with them.

Guessing Yan Lu was currently filming, Bai Lian didn’t call back, but sent Yan Lu a WeChat message—

Yan Lu has just released her new song and is focused on filming right now, so she’s not in a hurry for her next song.

Meanwhile.

Hospital.

Ji Mulan’s face was pale as she followed the ambulance down, jogging to keep up with the emergency doctor, “Doctor, how is he doing?”

“Did the patient suddenly faint? Without any warning signs?” The doctor put away his stethoscope, asking about the symptoms.

Ji Mulan nodded, managing to remain clear-headed in such a moment, “He suddenly fainted at the construction site. Before this, he’d occasionally suffer from headaches, but had no other symptoms.”

As she spoke, she handed the headache medication Xu En was taking to the doctor.

The doctor looked down at the medicine, which was for headaches.

Nurses hurriedly pushed Xu En into the emergency room.

Blood was drawn, an electroencephalogram was done, and a head CT scan…

Half an hour later.

The doctor came out with furrowed brows, carrying the results of the blood routine test and electroencephalogram. Assistant Xu En and Ji Mulan gathered around, “Doctor, how is the patient?”

“He’s still unconscious,” the doctor, who had never seen such a complex case before, handed the results to Ji Mulan, “What’s odd is that we can’t find the source. Has the patient eaten anything unusual recently?”

Assistant Xu En, wiping sweat from his forehead, knew he couldn’t bear the responsibility if something happened to Xu En on his watch. He calmly recalled the recent meals, “Only ordinary food.”

“We’ve already called for a consult with specialists from neurology and internal medicine.” The doctor was clueless, and a nurse informed him that the neurology specialist had arrived.

The medical team all gathered in the emergency room.

Xu En’s heartbeat had stabilized, and the electroencephalogram showed some abnormalities, but he remained unconscious.

When they came out again, the emergency room doctor looked toward Ji Mulan, “I suggest you transfer to a superior hospital.”

“What?” Ji Mulan had assumed Xu En was simply exhausted or had a blood pressure issue. She didn’t expect the hospital’s statement to be so serious, causing her to slump.

She was somewhat at a loss.

Xu En’s assistant took out his cell phone, ready to make contact with Jiangjing.

The neurology specialist nearby recognized Xu En’s assistant and the group, knowing they were regular VIP visitors; they often came to see Ji Shaojun.

“Our hospital just upgraded to the latest diagnostic equipment last month,” the neurologist explained to the assistant, “Many people from Beicheng come here for check-ups. We just used the new equipment to assess the patient’s condition, and we suspect…”

“What?” Ji Mulan looked up, sensing an ominous feeling.

The assistant also looked at the doctor’s name tag and then said, “Dr. Li, please go on.”

“This is an international neurotoxin,” Dr. Li started calmly, “In this situation, even if you were to take him to Jiangjing, it wouldn’t help. The neurotoxin is banned in our country, only certain labs abroad have the antidote. If you know someone overseas, you need to contact them quickly. The longer you wait, the greater the damage to the patient’s brain and body.”

“Neurotoxin?” Ji Mulan and the assistant exchanged a glance, both seeing shock in each other’s eyes.

A foreign neurotoxin?

Both of them were hearing this term for the first time.

Foreign laboratories…

The assistant realized instantly that this was not an issue he could handle.

He took out his cell phone and called Jiangjing.

He didn’t call Madam Xu, but instead he called Xu Wenyao, who was studying at Jiangjing University.

In such a situation, even Madam Xu might be helpless, but Xu Wenyao had numerous friends studying abroad, possibly they could find a solution.

“Young Master,” the assistant got straight to the point while explaining the whole situation, “We’re not sure what the toxin is, do you know someone overseas who knows about an antidote…”

Jiangjing University study room.

In this season, Jiangjing was much colder than Xiangcheng. Xu Wenyao put on a cotton jacket to take the call, wearing only a white undershirt. His usual composed expression vanished, “A foreign laboratory?”

What was needed now was a connection to classmates studying biochemical medicine abroad.

Xu Wenyao knew many people, and a few of them from affluent families were studying pharmacology abroad. When he mentioned the neurotoxin, those classmates hesitated for a moment, then gave a wry smile, “Xu Bro, as far as I know there aren’t more than two labs that could produce such an antidote, and I’m just a sophomore. I can’t even enter our school’s lab, you’re expecting too much from me…”

Nearly all the friends in the pharmaceutical industry gave the same answer.

Xu Wenyao took a deep breath and called Assistant Xu En back, instructing him to transfer Xu En back to Jiangjing immediately.

Whether or not they could find an antidote, the medical conditions in Jiangjing were much better than in Xiangcheng.

＊＊

Xiangcheng Hospital.

Upon receiving the transfer news, the assistant immediately gave instructions and finally turned to Ji Mulan, “The project in Xiangcheng is ongoing, I can’t leave. Ms. Ji, the trip back to Jiangjing will depend on you.”

“We’re really going back to Jiangjing?” Ji Mulan tried to calm herself, yet her voice still trembled, “His… his condition…”

“The toxin is banned in the country, and the Young Master says it’s only available internationally, in maybe one or two labs,” the assistant shook his head, his voice somber, “The only option is to transfer back to Jiangjing first.”

“If it’s banned in the country, then why…” Mulan began, then suddenly remembered Purest Street was next to the national border.

That place was a mix of all sorts, where anything could be found.

Her voice trailed off abruptly.

The phone rang. Ji Mulan took it out and answered.

“Your grandfather is asking why you haven’t arrived yet?” It was Bai Lian’s voice.

Ji Mulan was startled, then looked down at the phone and realized it was Xu En’s.

“He can’t make it right now,” Ji Mulan spoke with a hoarse voice, quietly saying, “We have to go back to Jiangjing first.”

Bai Lian’s brow furrowed slightly as she looked calmly towards the door, her voice cold and slow, “What’s wrong with him?”
