Chapter 830: Chapter 830: Well-Intentioned

"Three million in insurance?" Yang Yu frowned slightly, "Dr. Shi, insurance can be bought, but it shouldn’t be too high."

"Not too high?" Shi Yiyang’s face showed a hint of displeasure, "Mr. Yang, I’m considering this for your benefit. If there’s a problem with the drug trial, and the patients’ families refuse to back down, the insurance company can resolve everything."

"I know you’re thinking of my best interests, but this isn’t the right way." Yang Yu looked at Shi Yiyang sincerely, "Believe me, Dr. Shi, I am definitely not a stingy, heartless capitalist. The insurance should be capped at five hundred thousand at most. If you buy insurance for three million, it’ll really cause trouble."

"How about this?" Shi Yiyang said, "Mr. Yang, half of the people get fifty thousand in insurance, and the other half get three million in insurance. What do you think?"

"Alright, let’s go with what Dr. Shi proposed." Yang Yu sighed, unable to persuade Shi Yiyang otherwise, "If there’s really an issue with the patients with fifty thousand in insurance, I’ll personally cover the difference up to three million for them. But, do not tell them beforehand; just say we’re acting according to the contract."

Shi Yiyang initially thought Yang Yu was really just trying to save on insurance costs, so her expression wasn’t quite right. Unexpectedly, when Yang Yu said this, her face softened a lot: "Alright, Mr. Yang."

Yang Yu’s newly launched Chinese patent medicine for hepatitis treatment is "Liver Recovery," made entirely of Chinese Herbal Medicine using modern technology.

Shi Yiyang contacted several hospitals and found twenty patients willing to undergo the drug trial, then signed contracts with them.

Of course, she strictly followed Yang Yu’s instructions; everyone signed a confidentiality agreement, not allowed to disclose their contracts to others, or they would be considered in breach.

The patients all felt that the conditions provided by Shi Yiyang were good, and they were very happy when signing the contracts.

Especially the family members of the patients, when they saw the three million insurance, their eyes lit up unnaturally bright.

But the medical research-focused bookworm Shi Yiyang didn’t notice, thinking these family members were purely happy.

The so-called double-blind experiment involves dividing patients into two groups; one uses the real drug, and the other uses the useless Placebo to ultimately determine whether the drug is effective.

After the experiment began, Shi Yiyang stayed in the lab every day, recording various symptoms of the patients with her team of doctors.

After half a month, Shi Yiyang found that "Liver Recovery" was highly effective, as half of the patients showed significant improvement, demonstrating the drug’s effectiveness.

"I can have a good night’s sleep tonight," Shi Yiyang removed her glasses and rubbed her somewhat sore nose, "In another half a month, the experiment will be over, and it’ll be a great success."

Just as Shi Yiyang planned to go home for a bath and a good rest, a doctor under her suddenly rushed in frantically, shouting, "Dr. Shi, something’s wrong, several patients in Area A have suddenly worsened and could die at any moment!"

"How is this possible?" Shi Yiyang stood up from her desk chair, "They’re only using Placebo, how could there be any problem? Let’s go and see!"

The double-blind experiment was conducted at Tianhe Hospital, and Shi Yiyang left the office, rushing towards the emergency room.

Outside the emergency room, layers of patients’ family members surrounded it, their faces filled with anger.

"If something really happens, I won’t let this Dr. Shi get away with it!"

"Right, my husband was fine, his condition was improving, and now the drug trial has brought trouble!"

"Everyone, don’t say that, drug testing always involves risks. Since you’ve signed the contract, if something goes wrong, we’ll handle it according to the contract."

"What’s the use of more money? Can it bring the dead back to life? If something happens to my dad, none of you will be at peace!"

Shi Yiyang said to her assistant: "Bring me the information on these patients."

"Alright, Dr. Shi." The assistant quickly handed a file to Shi Yiyang, and upon opening it, her expression turned grim.

All these patients were using Placebo, it was impossible for several of them to have accidents together.

She was very reluctant to believe it, but she finally took a look at these people’s contracts.

Without exception, all had signed the three-million insurance.

At that moment, she suddenly understood what Yang Yu was worried about, and also understood Yang Yu’s good intentions.

She, from her perspective as a bookworm engrossed in scientific research, did not understand human nature, and indeed suffered a loss.

There was no problem on her side, without a doubt, the problem lay with the patients!

The door to one of the emergency rooms opened, and a doctor came out, shaking his head: "Sorry, we did our best."

"Husband, why did you leave us like this?"

"Wah, Daddy..."

"Give me my husband’s life back, you murderer!"

The deceased’s wife angrily swung her hand, clawing forcefully at Shi Yiyang’s face.

Fortunately, security was prepared and protected Shi Yiyang.

On the other side, another emergency room door opened: "The patient’s liver function has failed, liver necrosis, we did our best, sorry."

"Dad—"

"I want you people to pay with your lives!"

The patients brought in for emergency rescue continued to die one after another despite resuscitation efforts, and the family members’ anger reached its peak.

"A life for a life!"

"I’ll sue them until they’re bankrupt!"

"Post it online, expose them!"

Listening to these people’s enraged shouts, Shi Yiyang felt a dizzying sensation and fainted...

"Dr. Shi, are you awake?" After who knows how long, Shi Yiyang woke up faintly, and upon opening her eyes she saw Yang Yu.

Shi Yiyang’s eyes were red, and tears fell immediately: "Mr. Yang, I’m sorry, I messed things up. It’s all my fault for not listening to you."

"It’s okay, just treat it as tuition." Yang Yu comforted, "Get some rest, I’ll handle the upcoming matters."

Shi Yiyang struggled to get up from the bed: "I’m fine, I caused this mess, I should face it too!"

"Alright, let’s go together then," Yang Yu said, "You just need to present your experimental results during this period, I’ll handle the rest."

"Present the experimental results?" Shi Yiyang was taken aback, "Present to whom?"

"The reporters," Yang Yu smiled, "I’ve organized a press conference."

In the conference room of Tianhe Hospital, many reporters had prepared cameras, phones, and voice recorders, ready for on-the-spot reporting.

Apart from these reporters, there were also family representatives and staff from the insurance company.

Although unexpected incidents during a drug trial are quite normal, the insurance company won’t make compensations easily before confirming there are no problems.

They also wanted to see what kind of explanation Yang Yu, as the drug producer, would offer!
