Chapter 555 - Chapter 555 Chapter 555 Mrs. Zhous Illness Is Not an Accident

Chapter 555: Chapter 555: Mrs. Zhou’s Illness Is Not an Accident? Chapter 555: Chapter 555: Mrs. Zhou’s Illness Is Not an Accident? “I guess they might be researching some medicine.”

No one but Qiao Yun could duplicate the New Life Project.

They probably saw the potential in the medicine and wanted to research it on their own.

It seems the Zhou Family isn’t that foolish, completely depending on the organization.

“What they want to research is none of our business, I’m just worried about innocent people being deceived and used as lab rats.”

New medicines inevitably require human trials.

Qiao Yun’s delicate fingers gently tapped her cup as she curtly instructed Pei Ya, “Keep an eye on them.”

“Our people have been keeping an eye on them, trying to catch a lead on the organization,” Pei Ya’s smile was somewhat wicked, “The Zhou Family has really gone crazy, targeting you, it’s like they’re dragging the entire Zhou Family to their grave.”

In his view, trying to gain advantage from Professor Qiao was an impossible task.

Old Master Zhou was just too arrogant, thinking he could use his unknown tactics on Professor Qiao, but it was nothing more than a futile effort.

Once we hook the big fish, the Zhou Family is doomed.

Qiao Yun interrupted Pei Ya, who was gleefully anticipating trouble, casually saying, “Check on Old Madam Zhou’s illness.”

“Why check on that?”

Pei Ya paused slightly, then as if understanding something, said mysteriously, “Boss, don’t tell me you suspect Old Madam Zhou’s illness was no accident?”

Qiao Yun shared her thoughts with him, “Just to be on the safe side.”

“I understand.” Pei Ya’s gaze fell on Qiao Yun’s innocuous face, suddenly realizing why the Zhou Family was so bold.

The impression Qiao Yun left was indeed unlike the renowned Professor Qiao, rather frail.

Uh…

He figured he better not tell Professor Qiao that, afraid of being hit.

“If it really is man-made, tsk tsk, we’re in for a show,” Pei Ya could hardly wait to find out the truth, and quickly contacted someone to investigate.

He was somewhat suspicious that the mysterious organization was behind Old Madam Zhou’s illness, aiming to control the Zhou Family for their use, so they wouldn’t have to expose themselves.

Qiao Yun then said, “The medicine needs to be checked.”

Pei Ya responded gravely, “Boss, do you think I’m omnipotent? Where am I supposed to get the medicine for you?”

“What use are you then.” Qiao Yun was quite indifferent and merciless.

Pei Ya: “… ” He found himself unable to refute that.

Qiao Yun sipped her coffee, heavily sugared, her eyes thoughtful; she was somewhat interested in the medicine that could relieve Old Madam Zhou’s pain.

They are the bad guys, so in her view, this isn’t stealing.

“There’s one more thing…”

Pei Ya started to speak, hesitated, and didn’t manage to utter a word for a long while, finally under Qiao Yun’s impatient gaze, he asked quietly, “Aren’t you going to tell him? It concerns him too, isn’t it? Why do you insist on being the one to shield?”

Qiao Yun blinked, understanding Pei Ya’s point, and spoke without thinking, “It’s not shielding. I discovered this. I’ll handle it. I don’t want to involve others.”

“He doesn’t need your protection, his methods are more ruthless than yours.”

Pei Ya was utterly frustrated.

Call him selfish or heartless if you will, but he’d rather others be in danger than Qiao Yun.

“Boss, you’ve changed,” Pei Ya accused, “What happened to being calm and quiet? How can you continue like this?”

Qiao Yun patted Pei Ya’s hand, her face kind, “Once this is settled, we’ll get back to normal. Don’t be upset.”

Pei Ya looked at his hand, now held in an elderly grip by Qiao Yun, his expression blank.

He got it, just wished she wouldn’t treat him like a junior every time.
