Chapter 567: Final Chapter
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Song Fan was speechless as she looked at him, not expecting Old Mr. Brown’s real target to be her. But thinking about it, it made sense. If the antibody extracted from the serum could save lives, Old Mr. Brown wouldn’t have waited until now. He seemed very pleased with her reaction, smiling meaningfully. “Of course, if we could use Gu Chen’s blood for experiments, it would be even better, but it’s not essential. Having you is enough.”
“Don’t worry, once you’re abroad, you’ll have access to the best labs. Besides researching antidotes, you’ll also work on poisons.”
“You will become the greatest pharmacist. I guarantee, your name will soon be known to everyone, hahaha!”
Song Fan understood his plan. She was soon to be taken abroad, destined to become Old Mr. Brown’s personal physician for antidote research. Once her value ceased to exist, she would be disposed of. Surrounded by Old Mr. Brown’s men, she felt escaping was hopeless. Suddenly, the door opened, and one of Old Mr. Brown’s bodyguards whispered something in his ear, causing him to stand up hurriedly. “Gu Chen actually found this place?”
Before he could leave Song Fan’s room, gunfire erupted outside. Several bodyguards rushed out. Song Fan smiled at Old Mr. Brown. “You didn’t think I came unprepared, did you? Knowing your ill intentions, I deliberately walked into your trap.”
Her and Gu Chen’s watches were a pair, equipped with GPS tracking. Initially, it was installed to prevent Gu Chen from being kidnapped, but now it had saved her. By the time Old Mr. Brown realized what was happening, Song Fan had already subdued two of his men, then smiled at him. “Want to fight? I’m quite strong.”
Surprisingly, Old Mr. Brown wasn’t weak either. When she kicked, he dodged nimbly and quickly fled. Song Fan couldn’t let him escape and immediately gave chase. She reached the deck just in time to see Gu Chen being attacked by several men, with one about to strike him with a baseball bat.
“Gu Chen!” Song Fan rushed forward, only to be blocked by four burly men. Gu Chen was knocked unconscious on the ground. Old Mr. Brown swiftly stepped forward, drawing a large amount of blood from Gu Chen’s arm with a syringe.
“Old Mr. Brown, are you insane? He’ll die!” Song Fan kicked down the last man and ran to cradle Gu Chen. Blood trickled from the back of his head, and he remained unconscious. But Old Mr. Brown quickly boarded a speedboat. He saluted Song Fan. “Better he dies than me. Miss Song, until we meet again!”
As the speedboat sped away, Song Fan shook her fist in frustration, knowing she had let a dangerous enemy escape. The people on the speedboat were all engaged in battle, with no one left to pursue Old Mr. Brown. She cursed, already formulating numerous plans in her mind, knowing she might need to call on international allies.
Suddenly, Gu Chen moved. He took out a remote from his pocket and pressed a red button. With a loud explosion, Old Mr. Brown’s speedboat erupted in flames, sending thick smoke billowing into the sky. Everyone on the ship stopped fighting and stared at the sea. Song Fan quickly turned to Gu Chen. “Are you feeling any pain? You have a head injury; we must get you to a hospital.”
She had many questions but seeing Gu Chen’s pale face, she couldn’t ask. She only wanted him to survive. Gu Chen smiled faintly. “You saved me again, right?”
Song Fan rolled her eyes. “Yes, so your life belongs to me. You must live, understand?”
Gu Chen tried to nod but winced from the pain in his head. Song Fan gently supported him, her tone a bit scolding. “Why are you moving around? Do you think you’re invincible? How could you take on so many people alone?”
Gu Chen lightly grasped her fingers, smiling warmly. “So, I’ll need you to protect me from now on.”
He pulled a diamond ring from his pocket and slipped it onto Song Fan’s finger. She instinctively tried to pull away but he held her hand firmly. “For saving my life, I must repay you with my own. From now on, I’m yours, and you can’t abandon me.”
Song Fan laughed at his words, then bit his lip gently. “Then you better stay alive and well!”
