Chapter 1262: Chapter 1266: Hmph!

Yun Jue likes peace and quiet when he is conducting research, so he set up his laboratory in the small courtyard in the back on his own initiative.

Gu Junzhu and Ye Xingbei, accompanied by Xiao Shumiao, arrived outside Yun Jue’s laboratory, where the bodyguard at the door saluted them and then opened the door for them.

Gu Junzhu and Ye Xingbei each held one of Xiao Shu’s little hands and walked into the laboratory.

Hearing the footsteps, Qiao Zui and Lingyue both looked over and greeted them.

However, Yun Jue, as if deaf, was seriously and intently focusing on the microscope.

Ye Xingbei noticed that Gu Junzhu’s little nephew, Xiao Shumiao, bore some resemblance to Gu Junzhu.

Qiao Zui, with his flamboyant and devil-may-care appearance, had very few similarities with Gu Junzhu.

Yun Jue, on the other hand, was neat and fresh, sunnily handsome, with his eyebrows and facial contours sharing some resemblance to Gu Junzhu’s — it was almost immediately clear that the two were related by blood.

Gu Junzhu and Ye Xingbei brought Xiao Shumiao over.

Gu Junzhu asked Qiao Zui, "How’s it going?"

Qiao Zui replied, "All the powder found under Lian Jinshang’s fingernails is the same substance. Seven of the pills from her belt have been analyzed, and none match the pills in Lian Jinshang’s belt; however, one is identical to the pill Lian Jinshang handed to the gigolo at the hotel."

The pill that the gigolo gave to Gu Junzhu wasn’t completely ingested by him; he had kept some of the powder for chemical analysis in case of emergency.

Ye Xingbei’s heart leaped to his throat, "So that means out of the two antidotes needed, only the one Gu Junzhu took was found. The other we still need to find."

"Don’t worry, Auntie," Qiao Zui reassured her with a smile, "there are five more to test, I don’t think it should be a big problem."

That being said, Ye Xingbei still hoped that after her arrival, she would be able to hear the good news that the antidote had been found.

Now, her heart was suspended in mid-air, feeling terribly uncomfortable, as if claws were scratching at it.

Suddenly, Yun Jue exclaimed, "This is it, this is it! Cousin, this is the one!"

He lifted his head from behind the microscope, ecstatically searching for Qiao Zui.

When he saw Gu Junzhu next to Qiao Zui, he paused for a moment, then rushed over and hugged Gu Junzhu, "Little uncle, when did you get here?"

Ye Xingbei: "..."

No wonder they say scientists are half-mad, half-genius; they had been standing here for so long, having said so much, and only now did he notice them.

Xiao Shumiao, held by her, squeezed between the bodies of Gu Junzhu and Yun Jue and pushed Yun Jue away with force, standing in front of Gu Junzhu and glaring at Yun Jue, "Daddy is mine!"

If Little Cousin won’t let him in the lab, then he won’t let Little Cousin hug his dad!

Humph!

Yun Jue looked down at Xiao Shumiao, scratching his head, "I think I may have managed to offend my little cousin."

"It’s alright," Qiao Zui said with a laugh: "Our little cousin is a foodie. Just get him some tasty treats in the future, and he will forgive you!"

Qiao Zui stooped to lift Xiao Shumiao into his arms, pinching his cheeks, "Right, baby?"

Ye Xingbei grabbed Gu Junzhu’s arm, turning to look at him, "Did I misunderstand something? Wasn’t Yun Jue saying that the antidote has been found?"

Gu Junzhu said with a smile, "I think you understood correctly."

Ye Xingbei looked incredulous, "Then why are you all so calm?"

"Because we have always believed that as long as Ah Jue gets involved, he would definitely find the antidote. Even if he couldn’t find it, he would certainly be able to concoct one!" Qiao Zui patted Yun Jue’s shoulder, and a clear pride was evident on his roguish, beguiling face.
