Chapter 944: Chapter 944: The Truth Behind the Drugging (1)
Gu Annan pressed his lips tightly, staring into her eyes.
Damn it, she had to provoke him at this moment.
With just one touch, his self-control was on the verge of collapse.
"Enough!" Lu Wanwan looked at him, his face showing a look of being teased yet unwilling to give in, "That was just compensation earlier."
She turned around and obediently went to sleep.
She didn’t dare to place all her hopes on the antidote, so she wanted to give it a try.
Her poisoning wasn’t as severe as Wen Qiao’s. She had been forcibly kissed by him once before; if she endured that discomfort, it might be okay.
But if he insisted on refusing, she had no choice.
Gu Annan listened to her talking about compensation and didn’t take it seriously.
He turned around to get out of bed, sent a text message urging for a progress update, and went to the bathroom.

The next day, Gu Annan went to the company very early.
Recalling yesterday’s events, Lu Wanwan decided to visit the clinic by herself.
"You Chen is not here." Song Ning stopped what she was doing when she saw her, "You came alone?"
"Yes."
"Want to ask about the antidote?" Song Ning raised an eyebrow.
Lu Wanwan gathered courage, "I want to know how big the risk is."
Song Ning laughed, "What if I told you it’s a big risk?"
Yesterday, Gu Annan brought two people; she had already tested one and the result was successful.
But to be safe, they needed to test one more person.
Once both people’s health checks were clear, Wen Qiao could try the antidote.
She asked such an exaggerated question just out of curiosity.
"Is it fatal?"
"The poison in you isn’t life-threatening per se, but if you take the antidote, it’s hard to say. Do you think it’s worth the risk to detoxify?"
Lu Wanwan bit her lip, "If it’s likely to be fatal, I won’t try it, and I hope you don’t listen to them. Don’t test it on Wen Qiao."
She had two kids and wouldn’t gamble with her life.
Even if she had to leave him, she wouldn’t risk death by gambling.
Song Ning chuckled, "Don’t worry, no need to be nervous. The second test’s results were very good. As long as Wen Qiao has no issues, you can use the antidote. Wen Qiao has already made up her mind that she must use the antidote, so you have a chance."
"But..."
"She is different from you. The drug affects her too much. If she doesn’t take the antidote, she simply doesn’t want to endure. I can understand her determination."
She’s steadfast to the point of assuring her that there’s nothing wrong with the antidote, yet she couldn’t logically explain why.
Lu Wanwan thought for a moment, "I want to meet her."
"She’s upstairs."
She went upstairs and saw Wen Qiao’s face, obviously thinner than six years ago, as pale as a sheet of paper.
"It’s you." Wen Qiao was sitting by the window, hugging her knees, a bit surprised to see Lu Wanwan here at this time.
"I heard you insist on using the antidote." Lu Wanwan moved a bit closer but didn’t dare get too close, "Haven’t you thought that if there’s a problem with the antidote, it could kill you?"
"Do you think in my current state, I can live well?" Wen Qiao smiled faintly, "I know there’s nothing wrong with this antidote, but they don’t believe it."
"You’re so sure?"
Wen Qiao looked at her, not directly answering the question, seemingly still hesitating about something.
"Wanwan, I’m really sorry about what happened before. At that time, I had no choice, and as a result, I dragged you into becoming like me. Don’t you resent me?"
