As she spoke, she thought, but unfortunately, six years had passed, and now it’s very difficult to investigate these details.
"I need to conduct an examination for you, a very, very detailed one," Song Ning said seriously, "I can’t guarantee that I’ll provide a satisfying outcome, but it’s the only method we have at the moment."
Lu Wanwan nodded, that much was certain, for she had come here precisely to find out what the problem was.
"However, it might take some time before we get results from the tests, considering we’re not directly checking for the components of the drug, and after so many years, it’s possible that we’ll find nothing," Song Ning warned, "What I’m saying is, you should brace yourself. I’ll do my best, but there’s a chance I won’t be able to do anything."
Her face turned somewhat pale.
"I don’t mean anything else by this. This type of drug usually doesn’t show up in standard tests. It takes time and effort to purposefully create such drugs, and it’s not a pleasing task. I can’t figure out why someone would do this; it’s certainly not something regular scientific research would look into."
"What I’m worried about now isn’t that," Lu Wanwan said, instantly becoming extremely anxious, "I just remembered something else. Song Ning, my child was conceived at that time."
Song Ning was taken aback, "Are you sure?"
"I’m sure because we had always been careful before that. It was that one time... that one time we weren’t," Lu Wanwan spoke quickly, her nervousness speeding up her speech, "I’m certain it was then. Youyou’s illness, could it also be related to when I got pregnant? But I had tests done at the time, and the fetus had no issues, completely healthy. However, since this drug is so complex, is there a possibility that it could not be detected at the time, and that the side effects would only appear as the child grew up?"
"Don’t panic yet; these are just your speculations. Not all drugs carry this kind of hereditary issue, and besides, your daughter’s symptoms at the time, I don’t think they’re related to this," Song Ning said soothingly, "Let’s start with the examination; there might actually be nothing wrong."
Lu Wanwan felt cold all over, but Song Ning’s words were uncertain as well.
"Don’t panic; your two children have already been through the examinations last time and they’re fine."
Lu Wanwan spent almost the entire afternoon at the Song Clinic, from blood draws to various instruments within the clinic.
By four o’clock, she received a call and quickly jogged to the corridor.
"Miss Lu," the voice on the phone was Zhao Chen’s, "Have you forgotten about something?"
Lu Wanwan had barely calmed her nerves.
"What is it, Xiaozhao?"
The Zhao Chen on the other end of the phone was already in a mess, "Miss Lu, do you really not remember? Maybe you should think carefully. Like, for instance, three in the afternoon."
It took a good moment for Lu Wanwan to respond, "Three in the afternoon? Was it something about going to the Gu’s?"
"Yes!" Zhao Chen sighed in relief, "It seems Miss Lu, you didn’t completely forget about Mr. Gu’s matter; you still have it weigh on your mind."
"But I can’t go now. Maybe you should find someone else. The project wasn’t my responsibility to begin with; anyone in the team could represent the project more convincingly than I."
"I’m afraid that won’t work,"
"Mr. Gu has already started looking for you," Zhao Chen said with a wry smile, "If Miss Lu is busy, it’s no problem. Mr. Gu is also very busy, so he’s changed the time, and I only called because I saw you hadn’t turned up yet. Oh, right, the location has changed too."
"Tonight at seven," Zhao Chen remembered the BOSS’s preparations and hurriedly enticed her, "At a particularly hard-to-book restaurant."
