Chapter 628: 585 Every Day is Worth Remembering (1 Update)

Bai Dingxian thought that by going there, he would be able to learn something he had never dabbled in from Lu Han, such as how to research these tiny insects.

And the Poisonous Insects.

That kind of thing, he always thought only existed in people’s fantasies, something you’d find in ancient martial arts novels.

But where did he know that people nowadays are so capable, they could actually use Poisonous Insects on a normal person?

The people affected by the Poisonous Insects, did they really die violently and lose their original consciousness because of these insects?

If it weren’t for his personal experience, Bai Dingxian would really think that they had all colluded to perform a fantasy novel for him.

But in fantasy novels, people telekinetically move objects, turn invisible, and ride clouds—all of that is truly fantastical.

All they did was use Poisonous Insects.

As for belief in Poisonous Insects, it’s like a fortune-teller reading your fortune, believe and it exists, don’t and it doesn’t.

If Lu Han hadn’t actually dug out so many glass boxes from Lin Menmen’s nest, letting him see for himself the insects inside flying chaotically and gnawing on each other, he really wouldn’t believe that Lin Jiaojiao and Elder Tan’s current plight was caused by these tiny creatures.

He had previously suspected that the two had contracted some strange illness, which caused them to suddenly experience severe pain all over, and Elder Tan to fall into a coma.

Bai Dingxian, filled with sincerity, wanted to learn about these things, but instead, Lu Han took him to the surveillance room in the laboratory section.

"At night, you keep an eye on Jiaojiao here. If anything unusual happens, notify me immediately. I’m worried she might endure it and not call me."

"Uh, just by myself?" Bai Dingxian pointed to his own nose, completely baffled.

If that was the case, he would have been better off following Lu Han’s advice and knocking off work early to meet up with Sun Qing or something.

Even without a meeting, wouldn’t soaking in a bath at home and then having a good night’s sleep be so much nicer?

"Not just by yourself, a few others will be with you; don’t worry. There are no cameras in the restroom and changing room, but you should know what to do if someone spends more time than normal in the restroom, you don’t need me to teach you that, right?"

"Sure, you don’t need to, but I thought you’d enlighten me a bit since you wanted my company on this overtime shift. I am a doctor with aspirations, you know."

"I appreciate your zest for advancement, but I really don’t have the time to teach you. I’ll be in my office tonight, call me if needed."

"What’s for dinner?" The sky had turned dark, and Bai Dingxian, patting his empty stomach, realized he hadn’t had the chance to eat dinner yet.

Lu Han hadn’t had the chance to eat dinner either.

"I’ll order a cola and burger, just something casual."

"I need two, one isn’t enough for me."

"Got it, I’ll order a meal for three, and you can save the rest for a midnight snack."

"Cheers for that." Starving enough to devour a cow, Bai Dingxian gladly accepted.

As Lu Han walked away, he took out his phone to order takeaway.

One meal for three was delivered to his personal laboratory, and one meal for two to his director’s office.

Both meals were delivered by the hospital’s security.

Lu Han ate his burger while video chatting with Tang Su.

"Just having a burger for dinner?" Tang Su eyed him taking big bites of his burger, feeling quite sympathetic.

"Yeah, eating one once in a while still tastes pretty good."

"How’s everything on your end? Have you been to the Criminal Investigation Division?"

"No, I’ve just implemented the counter-poison suggestion you made before, and now we need to wait twenty-four hours for the results."

"Results will come out in twenty-four hours?"

"I guess, but no guarantees."

"How’s Jiaojiao doing now?" Tang Su’s heart clenched. The suggestion she, a complete outsider, had made was actually implemented by Lu Han.

If it worked, it was a lucky mistake.

If it didn’t, that would be a living person’s life at stake, and one of her good friends at that.

If Jiaojiao died, it would be her fault.

"She threw up a lot of dark blood, which should be the detoxification. I’m guessing she will need to vomit more before we can determine just how much that vicious woman Lin Menmen used."

"Yeah."

Tang Su nodded, her heart filled with hatred for Lin Menmen.

She truly hoped she could immediately bring Lin Menmen to justice.

"Don’t worry, I’m here at the hospital."

"Good, then don’t worry about things at home."

"Yeah, oh, I have something important to tell you."

"Yeah?"

"Tongtong can hear the Poisonous Insects’ sounds, which even I can’t hear. This time, Lin Menmen’s secret chamber was found by Tongtong leading He Zhendong and the others there."

"Lin Menmen has a secret chamber? This woman is quite capable."

"Yeah, and moreover, she’s done a good job with her secret chamber. No wonder her monthly electricity bills are outrageously high, regardless of whether it’s winter or summer. However, I had someone from the electric supply bureau check her payment records."

"All her anomalies started three years ago, and I will have someone find out who she became associated with back then."

"By that analysis, she only started to deal with Poisonous Insects three years ago, so she must be quite talented in this aspect. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been able to administer the Poisonous Insects to Elder Tan and Jiaojiao so precisely."

"You’ve been researching?" Lu Han chuckled softly, proud that his wife was still a student at heart.

"Yep, I went through the books in your study."

When Lu Han was busy, and Tongtong was taken out by his grandparents to boast about the Lu Family’s first grandson, she couldn’t just stay at the hospital with Jiaojiao. Every time she visited, Jiaojiao would send her back to prepare for her wedding.

So when she had nothing else to do alone, she would go to Lu Han’s study and look for books to read.

Lu Han’s study was open to her, and she could browse any book she wanted.

Only after entering did Tang Su discover that Lu Han had many books that simply weren’t for sale in the market, with yellowing paper covers, some printed with ancient characters, even original texts in seal script.

She was astonished at that time; just these documents, if auctioned, would fetch enough for an ordinary family of three to live a life of ease without financial worries for a lifetime.

Lu Han was genuinely wealthy.

It was also fortunate that she had studied Chinese Language and Literature in university, a major that others had looked down upon. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to translate a single sentence from some of the original texts.

"Yeah, feel free to browse. If you’re interested in the locked ones, the key is in a metal box in the bottom drawer of my desk, the code is 0417."

"Why isn’t it 0628?" Tang Su asked with a smile.

"You can’t always commemorate a single day. Every day for us two is worth remembering, isn’t it?"

"Yeah." Tang Su nodded, her heart moved.

Some say the shelf life of love is short, and after it expires, the relationship turns into kinship, a familiar feeling like the left hand holding the right hand.

Tang Su didn’t know if other people’s love was as the nonsense said, but her love with Lu Han was definitely not that short. After more than eight years, she felt that she loved Lu Han more each day than the day before.
