Chapter 369: Chapter 369: Deciding to Hold the Wedding on New Year’s Day_1

"What’s going on?"

Qian Haoming spoke, but to his horror, he couldn’t hear his own voice.

Terror filled his eyes as he desperately tried to move, to cry out.

But it was to no avail.

He couldn’t move or make a sound.

Moreover, he found it increasingly difficult to breathe, a choking sensation closing in.

How could this happen? How could he have become like this all of a sudden?

Who had done something to him?

Right, the glass of water from before!

The water given to him by the man with the scar had been tampered with.

This bastard, he had drugged him.

It reminded him of the drug’s effects that Annie had once described to him.

That drug, developed by Doyle Laboratory, could silently claim a person’s life.

Even an autopsy wouldn’t reveal any abnormalities; it would appear to be a natural death.

It was definitely that scarred man who had laced the water with the drug.

This scarred man had surely been bought off by Annie.

It was over, he was going to die!

No one would save him now!

He had come back to his country this time intending to rescue his father and brother.

But not only had he failed to save them, but he had also gotten himself into trouble.

If he could turn back time, he would definitely not attempt to save his father and brother or oppose Shen Dong.

In that case, none of this would have happened.

He would still be Annie’s boyfriend, he would become a son-in-law to the Luoke Family, and join the upper echelons of Lighthouse Country society, standing on top of the world’s pyramid.

Alas, there are no ifs in this world.

Qian Haoming felt his breathing grow more and more difficult, but he could not move, and he finally suffocated to death.

His death was silent!

The scarred man watched from a distance, feeling his skin crawl at the sight.

The effectiveness of this drug was simply too incredible.

It was like claiming a person’s life without God or ghost taking notice.

It remained to be seen whether it would be deemed a natural death upon investigation.

If not discovered, this drug would truly defy the natural order.

No need to fear being tracked down for murder!

What he didn’t know was that the drug had its flaws; ordinary doctors couldn’t detect it, only the most top-notch doctors could.

For someone like Qian Haoming, it was unlikely that the police would call on the world’s top doctors to examine his death.

Annie had brought a few pills with her to Dragon Country, just in case she needed them.

In the detention center, Dong Junjie and Du Mingliang in the other two cells experienced the same fate and died quietly.

Eliminating Dong Junjie and Du Mingliang was a given.

After all, Dong Qikang and Du Lijian were bound to die.

Keeping these two alive was inviting disaster.

In the cell housing Qian Haoming, when it was time for dinner in the evening, the scarred man pretended to push Qian Haoming.

Noticing that Qian Haoming didn’t move, was rigid, he then checked for breathing and found Qian Haoming breathless; he started screaming.

In the end, the police took Qian Haoming’s body away.

In the cells of Du Mingliang and Dong Junjie, the same scene unfolded.

All three men, involved in the same case, died at the same time, initially suspected of homicide.

However, after the medical examiner’s investigation showed no signs of poisoning, the final conclusion was natural death.

Despite everyone feeling that there were too many suspicious points, it couldn’t possibly be a natural death.

After all, three young people, without any serious diseases, in excellent health, died simultaneously.

The conclusion of natural death was really too absurd.

However, investigations require evidence, and without evidence, suspicions were useless.

This case eventually became an unsolved mystery.

It wasn’t until many years later, when Doyle Laboratory was destroyed by Lighthouse Country, that a medical scientist revealed they had developed such a drug, leading to the exposure of the truth, and suspicion finally fell on Annie.

But Annie was from Lighthouse Country, and she was the young lady of the Luoke family.

Given the Luoke family’s influence in Lighthouse Country, it was absolutely impossible to arrest her.

...

At night, at Shen Dong’s home.

After dinner, Shen Dong and Chen Yuyan took a walk along the Pu River.

Shen Dong broke the silence, "Wife, I’ve decided, let’s get married on New Year’s Day. What do you think?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Yuyan’s face lit up with joy, but then she asked with confusion, "Didn’t you say we should wait a year or two? Why the sudden change?"

She had heard many people say that Shen Dong wasn’t marrying her yet because he didn’t love her enough.

At first, she didn’t mind.

But as more people talked, she inevitably began to overthink.

Shen Dong had already told her they would wait about a year, so she felt it was not her place to ask too much more.

Now that Shen Dong had suddenly proposed getting married on New Year’s Day, her surprise was mixed with confusion.

"I’ve changed my mind. We’ve been registered for a while now, and I don’t want to wait any longer; I love you. Originally I wanted to wait so I could give you a grand wedding, but now I feel there’s no need to wait. Let’s have our wedding on New Year’s Day. Will you?" Shen Dong said.

"Of course," Chen Yuyan nodded with joy.

Without a wedding, she always felt something was missing.

If Shen Dong had no money, then it would be fine not to have a wedding, as long as they were in love and happy. After all, weddings can be expensive.

But since Shen Dong wasn’t short on money, she still hoped to have a wedding ceremony.

It was not just for the blessings from others, but as a ceremony for the two of them.

"Once we have the wedding, we’ll have kids. I really like children; I want at least two." Shen Dong added with a smile.

"Sure," Chen Yuyan, as a woman, was even more eager to have children.

...

Three days later.

In a small border town in Lighthouse Country.

In a room that looked like an operating theater, Dong Qikang and Du Lijian were tied to a bed.

"What are you doing?"

"Who are you, where is this?"

Looking at the menacing doctors in white coats sharpening their knives, the two were filled with terror.

"Gentlemen, this is Doyle Laboratory. Normally I am very busy, and there are many waiting to be experimented on. You two having just arrived, it would not have been your turn."

"However, the higher-ups said that you are people trying to expose Doyle Laboratory; you have been given priority. I can only experiment on you first," said the doctor in the white coat.

The doctor in the white coat had studied in Dragon Country and could speak the language of Dragon Country.

He spoke clearly and expressed his meaning well.

"Doyle Laboratory!"

"The Doyle Laboratory that conducts illegal human experiments!"

The faces of Dong Qikang and Du Lijian turned even more ghastly with terror.

They had learned from Qian Haoming that this laboratory was utterly inhumane.

Once chosen for experimentation, one would die in a most tragic manner.

They never imagined that they would be delivered to the Doyle Laboratory.

The two quickly realized that they must have threatened Annie and angered her.

The person who had knocked them out and had delivered them here had acted under Annie’s orders.
