Li Yi was embarrassed when she heard that. She thought that she could play dumb. As long as Ouyang didn't mention that he liked her, she wouldn't be so embarrassed. However, Ouyang couldn't help but say it, which made Li Yi very depressed.
Seeing that Li Yi was silent, Ouyang continued. Anyway, he had already done so many bad things shamelessly. This time, he wasn't afraid of losing face. He was afraid that if he didn't say it now, he wouldn't have the chance to say it again.
"Little Yi, I like you. Even though so many years have passed, I'm still very moved by you. I really like you, so … I have a presumptuous request. If I successfully develop the antidote this time, can you help me put in a good word for me in front of Jin Beisen?" Ouyang's expression was nervous. His well-defined fingers were tightly clenched into fists. He spoke incoherently, and the desire to live was very strong in his heart.
Li Yi had a resistance towards Ouyang from the bottom of her heart. The Ouyang in front of her was completely different from the Ouyang she knew in university. The Ouyang of that time was just as he had described just now. He was upright, stubborn, serious, persistent, and had a strong self-esteem. However, the current Ouyang had already changed. He exuded greed from head to toe. Even Li Yi could clearly feel his desire for her.
"Okay. If Xiaomo is safe, I will definitely put in a good word for you and ensure your safety." Li Yi pretended to be calm and said calmly.
Ouyang thought that Li Yi was really calm. He didn't notice that Li Yi hated him at all. Ouyang was very happy. His eyes flashed with a trace of horror. Suddenly, he smiled and asked with bad intentions, "Can I … can I hug you?"
When Li Yi heard this, her nervous heart suddenly skipped a beat. It seemed that she was still too bold. However, when she thought that this closed laboratory was full of surveillance cameras, Li Yi wasn't afraid. After all, Ouyang wouldn't dare to mess around with her here.
"This … I'm already a married woman. Men and women shouldn't touch each other. What's with this hug of yours? If it's an old classmate who hasn't seen for many years and wants to hug me, I can satisfy your request. However … it has to be after Xiaomo's illness has recovered. " Li Yi thought for a moment. She felt that it wasn't good for her to reject Ouyang so decisively. However, she couldn't not reject him either. So, she used a trick to trick him.
Ouyang had a very good impression of Li Yi. At this moment, he didn't even think about whether Li Yi's words were true or false. He simply believed her.
"I … I just want to hug you. After all, I used to like you so much." Ouyang's voice was trembling. He didn't know why, but he, who had always been cold-blooded and emotionless, was so excited at this moment.
Li Yi rolled her eyes in her heart. However, she still said kindly, "Okay, as long as you can develop the antidote, I promise to give you a hug."
Ouyang smiled wickedly.
Li Yi saw a touch of greed in his eyes. She thought that this man was actually quite sad. When he was in college, he had excellent grades. However, because of his ugly appearance, he was ostracized by his classmates. Even the professional teachers didn't like this person very much. Ouyang felt the deep malice from the world, so his psychology slowly became deformed.
But later, he underwent cosmetic surgery, and his appearance changed a lot. Gradually, there were pursuers around him. Ouyang found that those classmates who usually ignored him began to pay attention to him slowly. Like other boys, he had pursuers around him. There were little schoolmates who sent him breakfast every morning. This was a happy thing, but Ouyang rejected those pursuers indifferently. He knew that those people didn't love his soul at all, but just a stinky body.
"Just because of what you said, I will work hard to develop the antidote." Ouyang said with a smile.
Li Yi knew that there were still many things she didn't understand. Germ experiments were really not her forte, but for this experiment, she could only succeed. No matter what method she used, she had to develop the antidote to save this poor child.
Before Li Yi entered the laboratory, she had already made an agreement with Jin Beisen, Zhou Manchun, and Xiao En. If Xiao En didn't do anything inappropriate to her, they wouldn't come in from the outside.
Xiao En looked at the monitor screen with a cold expression. He felt very uncomfortable. After all, it was his wife in there. No man could stand his wife talking and laughing in a closed space with a man with bad intentions. Although they were just doing a simple experiment, Xiao En still felt uncomfortable.
Zhou Manchun pursed her lips. She naturally knew how Xiao En felt. Xiao En's very unnatural expression had already betrayed his thoughts. In order to not let him think too much, Zhou Manchun asked gently, "Uncle Xiao, why don't … I go in with the teacher?"
A trace of hesitation flashed across Xiao En's face. He raised his eyebrows and said with a smile that was not so sincere, "No need. She already said that before Ouyang does anything inappropriate to her, we shouldn't go in."
Zhou Manchun pursed her lips. If it weren't for Xiao En's sullen expression, she wouldn't have asked him this question. But now, waiting in vain was not a solution.
Jin Beisen turned his head. His pair of cold eyes had already been staring at Zhou Manchun's face for a long time. He knew that this woman couldn't hold it in anymore. There was a time when he was like this, too. On the first afternoon when they had just caught Ouyang and brought him here, Jin Beisen also stood in this room, watching Ouyang do the experiment on the monitor. He watched for an entire afternoon, and in the end, he even had an illusion that the person doing the experiment was himself.
Reaching out, Jin Beisen gently covered Zhou Manchun's shoulder with his warm big palm. With a little force, he pulled Zhou Manchun into his arms.
At this moment, they had no other choice but to wait!
Jin Beisen's ink-black eyes were pitch-black, like the stars in the night sky, twinkling, bringing hope to people. His Adam's apple moved up and down twice, and there was a hint of tenderness in his magnetic voice. He patted Zhou Manchun's shoulder and comforted her, "Don't worry, Xiaochun. Now we can only wait."
Zhou Manchun raised her head to look at him. From his deep eyes, she could read a trace of helplessness. It turned out that no matter how powerful a person was, there would always be a time when they were powerless. The taste of waiting was simply too unbearable, especially when it was a hopeless wait.
"Beisen, are there other laboratories here?" Zhou Manchun paused, and there was a hint of palpitation in her voice.
