Luo Mengmeng’s eyes immediately fixated on his actions, tensely fearing that if the medication failed, it might cause adverse reactions to Sanbao.
"Don’t be afraid, even if the research on the medication fails, it won’t cause major harm to the body," Lirui, who seemed to understand her worries, hurriedly reassured her.
"Mm!" Although Mengmeng nodded, her whole body still shivered, her eyes fixed tightly on Sanbao.
Soon, the medication was fed into Sanbao’s body.
He didn’t seem to have any adverse reactions, and after taking it, there was no change for the time being.
At this moment, Dr. Carl added some devices to his body.
There were devices connected to the heart, lungs, and kidneys, as well as devices monitoring the virus.
Before long, perhaps as the medication had begun to work within Sanbao’s body, the numbers on the virus-monitoring device actually began to decrease!
"My God! Have we succeeded?"
It was uncertain who exclaimed first, but suddenly everyone started cheering.
"Ah! We’ve finally justified our efforts!"
Everyone was overjoyed.
Luo Mengmeng was just about to join in the happiness, but when she looked up, she saw the numbers on the device suddenly stop declining, then skyrocket back up to the same numbers as before.
That is to say, the new drug had no effect in controlling the virus, even worse than the previous drugs.
Suddenly, everyone was dumbfounded, shaking their heads in disbelief.
"How could it be ineffective?"
Disappointment was written all over Luo Mengmeng’s face.
Actually, she hadn’t held much hope for the new drug, but when she saw the virus numbers dropping, she was truly ecstatic; however... the next second, the display plunged her into the depths of hell.
As the saying goes, no hope, no disappointment.
Not only was everyone puzzled, but Dr. Carl found it unbelievable too.
"How could it be ineffective? How could my research have failed... Impossible!"
At that moment, he clutched his head and started screaming and shouting as if he had gone mad.
Just as Mengmeng was encapsulated in disappointment, his reaction startled her greatly.
Mengmeng hesitantly asked Lirui.
"Don’t worry, it’s nothing serious," Lirui, who seemed quite used to it, shrugged and pulled her back to her seat, "He’ll be normal once he vents. Don’t mind him; let’s continue with our work."
"Oh... okay." Hearing her say that, and seeing that everyone else also had a face accustomed to it, Mengmeng was finally reassured.
Sitting in her office chair, Luo Mengmeng took out the book she was reading the day before from her bag.
Just as she was about to continue reading, she noticed that the book now had translations added to it.
Dense and detailed, any uncommon words were annotated with Chinese definitions.
Luo Mengmeng recognized the handwriting on it as Gu Zhihan’s at a glance...
Had he not slept last night?
Luo Mengmeng was moved and distressed simultaneously.
Lirui also noticed the handwritten translations in the book, immediately covered her mouth, "Wow, you’re so diligent, Mengmeng!"
"This isn’t my translation," Mengmeng shook her head.
"Ah? Then whose is it?" Lirui asked, puzzled.
Mengmeng’s cheeks turned a bit red as she said, "It’s my husband’s..."
"Damn! Making us jealous!" Lirui immediately gave her a look full of envy and resentment.
Mengmeng felt embarrassed.
Well, she really wasn’t trying to make anyone jealous; she was just stating the truth.
