Chapter 646: Chapter 645 Successfully Found a Powerful Backer to Rely On
 

“Do you listen to her because she’s a doctor here, or is there some special relationship?”

The young nurse paused in her actions, looking at Sun Ning with a puzzled gaze. She thought that since Sun Ning could appear here, he must be Wen Xin’s friend and therefore not unfamiliar with Wen Xin’s identity. Yet, he seemed to know nothing.

“She’s an investor in the hospital, and our dean is her good friend…”

Sun Ning stood still, watching the nurse help Mu Chengxi change rooms while he chewed on his chopsticks, deep in thought. He felt that coming to Country Z this time was the right choice.

Given Wen Xin’s capabilities in her home country, she should truly be able to meet his research needs. He had already begun to fantasize about his future career path.

As Sun Ning daydreamed, Wen Xin entered with Mu Bei, pointing to the untouched takeout that belonged to Sun Ning.

“You go eat something first. After you finish, take him to the research institute. Just call Ma Wenyuan afterward.”

“Okay, Miss Wen.” Mu Bei had just checked on Mu Chengxi, and seeing that he was fine, he could rest easy. After dropping Nan Xu at the airport, he had rushed back, worrying about Mu Chengxi being unattended if anything went awry and Wen Xin being overwhelmed on her own.

Mu Bei was not shy. He picked up one of Sun Ning’s extra orders of takeout and started eating on the sofa.

Just as Wen Xin was about to leave, Sun Ning suddenly grabbed her arm, looking at her with a gossip-hungry expression.

“Little princess, is this hospital yours?”

“Yes, if you’re interested, I could offer you a job here. Your medical arts are quite competent, and if you…”

“No, no, no, I don’t want to work at a hospital, I want to do research. I have two virus samples that I haven’t had the chance to study. If you could really provide me with a laboratory, I’d like to focus on research. You know research costs money…”

Sun Ning conducted consultations in Independent State for the sake of funding his research. His work was not accepted there, nor could he apply for funding, so he had to resort to treating patients and reselling lab medicine to scrape together some funds.

Listening to Sun Ning, Wen Xin’s brows furrowed involuntarily. Her gaze fell on Sun Ning’s backpack—the small pack holding viruses. Wasn’t he being too bold?

Seeing Wen Xin’s eyes on his backpack, Sun Ning understood what she was thinking.

“You don’t need to worry about the virus. The fact that I haven’t been infected proves there’s no risk of exposure. Have you considered investing in me? I don’t need a big team; I only need to work by myself.”

Sun Ning didn’t want others meddling in his research. He had his own technical support and didn’t need help from anyone.

“I can do that. I will support all of your research. With me, rest assured, funding won’t be an issue. After you finish eating, let Mu Bei take you to the Biological Laboratory.”

“For now, go perform an analysis on Mu Chengxi’s blood. The test report for Mu Chengxi is out, and all his values have declined slightly, but everything is within the safe range. It seems your experimental medicine was successful!”

“As for the rest, if you like the lab in Beijing, you can stay and conduct your research here. If you find Beijing inconvenient, I have other medical laboratories, although they’re certainly not as convenient as the Biological Laboratory.”

Upon hearing that Wen Xin also owned medical laboratories, Mu Bei, who was eating, choked on his food and let out a burp, which sounded rather comical.

Wen Xin turned her head to look at Mu Bei, a light smile playing on her lips, “Choke you to death again.”

Mu Bei, hearing Wen Xin’s mocking words, hung his head and dared not speak. It was as if he heard something he shouldn’t have, and he worried whether Wen Xin would silence him.

Sun Ning was still caught up in the excitement of being financially independent. He had finally found his backer and no longer needed to perform surgeries for money. It wasn’t because he wasn’t dedicated to the medical arts as a talented doctor; he was just truly too busy.

He was busy researching antiviral drugs and attending to medical organizations to exchange his findings for funding, so even one surgery a month was really his work limit.

Now he could finally focus on his research. He felt both relaxed and joyful. Life was indeed beautiful.

Wen Xin cast a disdainful glance at Sun Ning, who stood beside her giggling foolishly, looking like someone with a few screws loose.

“Get your things together and get ready to leave with Mu Bei. I’ll book a hotel room for you near the research institute. You can head back to the hotel whenever you need to rest. Just call me if you need anything.”

“OKOK, no problem. Actually, it’s not that much of a hassle. When I get into my research, I lose track of time and just need a little rest.”

“That’s up to you, arrange it however you like. Just call me if you need anything. I’m going to take your blood now; get ready, and then you can leave.”

Wen Xin looked at Mu Bei, who had finished eating by now, ready to leave at any moment. It was the perfect time to take Mu Chengxi’s blood.

Wen Xin left the ward, took a blood drawing set from the nurse’s station, and returned to Mu Chengxi’s ward to start drawing his blood.

Mu Chengxi, looking at the needle marks on his arm and watching Wen Xin’s skilled actions, narrowed his eyes, “How come I didn’t know I’d been stuck so many times?”

“Of course, you didn’t know. You were in a deep coma. Neither Nan Xu nor I had any solution. Nan Xu took your blood sample to the biological laboratory to look for a possible breakthrough.”

“Fortunately, Sun Ning brought the antiviral injection, which is why you recovered so quickly. Otherwise, it would have been very dangerous.”

After drawing a tube of blood, Wen Xin stood up, gently shaking the blood in her hand, then sealed it in an ice pack.

“I’ll deliver the blood to Sun Ning first and have Mu Bei take him to the Biological Research Institute. I’ll be back soon.”

Wen Xin planted a soft kiss on Mu Chengxi’s forehead, then hurriedly left the ward.

After receiving Mu Chengxi’s blood, Sun Ning left the hospital with Mu Bei. On the way to the hospital, Su Ning was somewhat excited and wanted to ask Mu Bei about the laboratory.

“So, Mu Bei, do you know about that biological laboratory? Is it any good?”

Mu Bei thought over Sun Ning’s question with a slightly dim-witted expression before slowly answering after a while.

“Beijing’s physical and biological laboratories are the largest in the country, and they do have a significant impact on the world. I’m not too clear on the specifics. Mr. Sun will see for himself when he gets there!”
