Chapter 940: Chapter 0940: Go in and lie down

"The main thing is that my grandfather wants to meet you. After you joined the Dark Group, he heard about you and is very curious about you."

Lin Canghai smiled and explained, reminding, "You were able to become the Group Leader of the Martial Arts Inspection Team thanks to my grandfather’s efforts. Considering how much he has worked for you, shouldn’t you go to see him?"

"I’m not going. I didn’t ask him to work for me."

Tang Ming refused decisively, expressing dissatisfaction: "Besides, after joining the Dark Group, I realized how vulnerable you are now. You’re often bullied by the Ming Group. If I weren’t so strong-willed, wouldn’t I have been bullied with you as well?"

"Don’t be so excessive."

Lin Xue couldn’t help but glare at Tang Ming, "Many influential people in the country wish to meet my grandfather but never get the chance. Now, my grandfather is willing to meet you personally; it’s your good fortune. Can’t you appreciate it?"

"Unfortunately, I’m not one of those influential people looking for favors."

Tang Ming sneered, "Besides, I’m here in the Imperial City as Su Xiaoxi’s fiancé. Spending the first night not at the Su Family and then running to your Lin Family would definitely cause unnecessary trouble if the Su Family finds out, so forget it."

"That’s true."

Hearing this, Lin Canghai frowned in perplexity.

"Let’s talk about it when there’s a chance in the future. By then, I’ll specially visit the Lin Family and make sure your siblings aren’t embarrassed."

Tang Ming patted his stomach, burping contentedly: "I’m full, and I need to return to the Su Family. If I don’t go back, my phone will explode with calls from Su Xiaoxi."

"Alright, since that’s the case, let’s talk about it another time."

Lin Canghai understood Tang Ming’s temperament and, considering the current situation wasn’t suitable for visiting the Lin Family, didn’t say much more.

While Tang Ming and Lin Canghai were eating, Fu Tianyou led a large group of Ming Group members back to the entrance of the research lab.

"Dad, the Dark Group didn’t leave anyone to guard this place. What are they playing at?"

Fu Renjie, after inspecting, reported with doubts.

"Hmph, they probably knew I would bring people to settle accounts, so they ran off early."

Fu Tianyou glanced at the hundred fully-armed Ming Group experts behind him. He was prepared for a big fight with the Ming Group, but unexpectedly, Tang Xin had withdrawn, leaving him no chance to regain his reputation.

"It’s good they’re gone. We can retake the research lab. If they dare to come back, they will never return."

Fu Renjie shouted menacingly.

"Exactly! First, deactivate the Poison Gas Defense System, then go in and get the surveillance footage. I want to see how Tang Xin and Lin Xue weren’t poisoned."

Fu Tianyou squinted, giving orders suspiciously about how Tang Ming and Lin Xue could stay in the poison gas for a day without harm. Was the gas not potent enough? Then more potent poison gas should be studied in the future.

"I’ll go down and check myself."

Fu Renjie immediately put on a gas mask, leading some subordinates into the elevator, eager to know what happened with Lin Xue and Tang Ming in the research lab.

Fu Renjie and seven of his subordinates took the elevator down. But before it reached the bottom, Fu Tianyou’s walkie-talkie buzzed: "Ah, help! Get us up quickly, there’s poison below."

"What’s going on? Renjie, aren’t you wearing gas masks? How did you get poisoned?"

Fu Tianyou’s face changed dramatically, calling out anxiously into the walkie-talkie: "Quick, bring the elevator up, quickly."

In no time, the elevator was summoned up, but when the doors opened, Fu Renjie and the seven others were lying on the ground, their condition unknown.

"Oh, my son, what happened?"

Fu Tianyou wailed, anxiously shouting, "Someone, quickly get my son out."

A group rushed to pull Fu Renjie and the others from the elevator. When their gas masks were removed, everyone gasped.

The unconscious Fu Renjie’s face already showed skin decay, turning black, and his body was pitch-black—clear signs of severe poisoning.

"What’s going on, how did it end up like this?"

Fu Tianyou anxiously stared at the doctor checking Fu Renjie, nervously asking, "Is it biochemical poison gas?"

"Report to the Group Leader, Young Master Renjie is indeed poisoned, but it’s not biochemical poison gas. It’s a completely new Poison, and we don’t know its composition yet."

One doctor shook his head helplessly.

"Is there any danger?"

Fu Tianyou asked anxiously.

"Though there’s no life-threatening risk, judging from the poisoning symptoms, if an antidote isn’t administered, the condition might stay or even worsen."

The doctor sympathetically looked at Fu Renjie, saying, "Fortunately, they came out in time, the poisoning wasn’t deep, and there are no signs of worsening, otherwise, it would be catastrophic."

"How could this happen, weren’t they wearing gas masks? How did they still get poisoned?"

Fu Tianyou roared in despair.

"Group Leader, based on our preliminary assessment, the lab’s poison gas might have mutated, rendering our gas masks useless."

One doctor used tweezers to lift Fu Renjie’s sleeve, explaining, "This poison gas can directly corrode the skin, causing poisoning without inhalation. It’s truly a terrifying invisible killer gas."

"Is it that serious?"

Fu Tianyou frowned, his face grim: "Immediately alert all employees of the Biological Department to stop their break and return immediately. We must identify the poison gas components and develop an antidote to save my son’s life."

"Group Leader, what should we do now? Should we still reclaim the lab?"

Someone timidly asked Fu Tianyou.

"With the gas masks useless against the poison gas below, there’s no way to activate the lab’s gas purification system, so what are we reclaiming?"

Fu Tianyou cursed angrily, "Leave a few people to guard the entrance and wait for the Biological Department staff to return and handle the poison gas."

After issuing orders, Fu Tianyou hurriedly had Fu Renjie sent to the hospital for advanced treatment.

The Ming Group, attempting to retake the Biochemical Laboratory, left in disgrace, thankful the elevator held only eight people, or more would end up hospitalized.

Though the Dark Group withdrew, before leaving, Lin Canghai had intelligence officers monitor the situation here. Hearing about Fu Renjie and others getting poisoned and carried out, Lin Canghai nearly laughed himself silly.

No wonder Tang Ming said there was no need for Dark Group personnel to guard the lab or fear the Ming Group’s return—he had long prepared a backup plan.
