Chapter 940: Chapter 381 Genius Degeneration_2 Chapter 940: Chapter 381 Genius Degeneration_2 As Yan Fei thought about the consequences of this virus harming humans, his expression also turned grave as he said, “Director Yan, rest assured that we at Dream Island will do our utmost to decipher this virulent virus. As soon as we find a solution to this virus, we will immediately notify your side.”

Director Yan said, “Then I will have to trouble Mr. Yan Fei.”

Yan Fei said, “It's no trouble at all; this is our responsibility. By the way, may I be so bold to ask how this virus appeared? Was it deliberately released by someone, or did it evolve from nature?”

Director Yan sighed and said, “At the beginning, we thought it was a new virulent virus that had evolved on its own in nature. However, when we investigated the initial source of infection, it turned out that this is very likely a malevolent event of a human-deliberately released virus. This virus isn't naturally occurring; it must have been manufactured in a laboratory, as the genes of this virulent virus show signs of human modification.”

Yan Fei was shocked and said, “Who could have created such a powerful virulent virus? What is their purpose in releasing this virus? Surely it isn't just to eliminate canines from other regions?”

Director Yan said, “It is still not very clear who manufactured and released this virus, nor do we know their purpose. But we have initially ascertained that the initial outbreak point was a large square in the suburbs of Hang City. Everything started from that large square, but because the flow of people there is very high, the difficulty of the investigation is greatly increased. Until now, we have not discovered who released the virulent virus there or in what way.”

While Yan Fei and Director Yan discussed this matter, the technicians from both sides completed the handover procedures for the virulent virus and its research data.

Seeing that the virus handover was complete, Director Yan did not continue to discuss this somewhat dark topic. Instead, he said with a smile, “According to Secretary Ouyang, Mr. Yan Fei was her university classmate, weren't you?”

Yan Fei said “Yes, Ouyang Shafei and I were university classmates, but I haven't seen her for many years.”

Director Yan then said with a laugh, “Secretary Ouyang is a mid-level cadre in our bureau, and since she was your classmate, that makes us our own people. We should get together more often in the future.”

Yan Fei said, “Of course.”

Ouyang Shafei, noticing that the leaders had finished their business, immediately stepped forward and said, “Mr. Yan, you were so unassuming at university, I never expected you to be so incredible. In just a few short years, you've built such a great foundation. It's really amazing.”

Yan Fei glanced at Lu Pingping beside him and said, “You flatter me too much; I don't have such great abilities. I was just lucky to have come up with some creative ideas. The actual work has all been done by Lu Pingping, she's the real hero behind the scenes.”

Ouyang Shafei also glanced at Lu Pingping and said with a smile, “You two were lovers back at school and now you are starting a business together; it's truly a case of a couple sharing deep affection. You must be getting married soon, right?”

Yan Fei, who was just holding a cup of tea, choked on his drink upon hearing Ouyang Shafei's words, and started coughing violently. However, he had extreme control over his body and in an instant, he adjusted the discomfort in his throat and stopped the coughing.

Director Yan, who had been looking on with a smile as Ouyang Shafei and Yan Fei made small talk to bring the two parties closer, noticed the unusual reactions from Yan Fei and Lu Pingping beside him upon hearing Ouyang Shafei's words, and he immediately understood that there was a problem with what Ouyang Shafei said. To avoid any awkwardness, he quickly took Ouyang Shafei away from the scene.

Before leaving, Director Yan said, “Mr. Yan Fei, we will be staying on Dream Island for the time being. If you have any new findings about this virulent virus, please make sure to let us know.”

Yan Fei said, “Will do.”

After Director Yan and Ouyang Shafei had left, Lu Pingping suddenly said, “No, no…”

Thinking Lu Pingping was still dwelling on what Ouyang Shafei had just mentioned about their past, Yan Fei coughed and said, “Pingping, there's no need to dwell on the past.”

Lu Pingping said, “I feel that there is something off about Ouyang Shafei.”

Yan Fei was surprised, not expecting Lu Pingping's point of concern to be different from his own. He asked in amazement, “What's wrong with her?”

Lu Pingping said, “According to my observations just now, Ouyang Shafei had intimate contact with Director Yan. Though they were very discreet, they couldn't fool my eyes, so the two of them are very likely in a romantic relationship. And that Director Yan, I've seen him before in Beijing, and I've also seen his wife. However, at that time my influence was too weak, and Director Yan didn't even remember meeting me before.”

Yan Fei said, “You're saying they're in a romantic relationship? I couldn't tell at all.”

Lu Pingping was somewhat annoyed and said, “You blockhead, all you think about is developing your business; of course, you wouldn't notice the secrets in these women's hearts.”

Yan Fei promptly touched his nose, not daring to continue the topic.

Lu Pingping said, “Ouyang Shafei is a real genius from China's Genius Class, with an impressive mental calculation ability, and was a standout figure in the class. But she has one flaw, do you know what it is?”
