Chapter 1657. You’re really a piece of trash
Gu Junhao didn’t get angry and didn’t even give him a reaction on his face, laughing generously and admitting:
"I am low and cheap, but I’m not afraid."
He walked up close, the two of them at a similar height, but he carried a condescending air and said in a low voice:
"Qi Ming, you really are a failure."
Stung by Gu Junhao’s words, Qi Ming’s face turned black with anger and he raised his fist to smash it down on Gu Junhao’s face. Gu Junhao didn’t dodge, staring him down, and somehow prevented him from bringing his fist down.
Gu Junhao straightened his collar, crumpled by Qi Ming’s grip, and said:
"I don’t care why you drugged Xia Yumo or want to hear your sob stories. I came to tell you personally that I’m protective, and you’d better not mess with my people again. The first time, I’ll let it slide as ignorance, but not a second time. If I become a monster, even I would be scared of myself."
His face still smiling when he said this, his two little fangs seemed to reflect knife light, making Qi Ming feel a creepy chill.
"What Gu Junhang and I go through is our family business, which won’t tolerate outsiders meddling, understand?"
Having threatened Qi Ming, Gu Junhao put his hands in his pockets and swaggered out of the laboratory like a young dandy.
The door that Gu Junhao had kicked off was leaning crookedly against the wall, as if having the last laugh at Qi Ming.
Ever since that day when Gu Junhao told Qiaoxu that he could cure Xia Yumo’s poison in exchange for her, she had been trapped in a dilemma.
In just a few days, Z Country was hit by an unprecedented outbreak of infectious pneumonia. Panic spread throughout the entire nation as people were terrified.
Whether in schools or workplaces, areas with large gatherings of people were closed.
Those places not closed handed out protective measures to all employees.
The number of deaths caused by this pneumonia outbreak had reached hundreds within days.
Even among Chinese living abroad, many such cases had occurred.
The National Health Bureau, the Institute of Pharmaceutical Research, and world-class pharmaceutical companies were jointly researching a specific medicine for the pneumonia virus but had yet to find the key.
People all over the country were becoming more and more nervous and uneasy.
The rising death rate put everyone in a state of panic.
Some people were even too afraid to leave their homes, let alone go to crowded places.
At present, people’s faces would change color at the mention of the "pneumonia outbreak."
If it was really necessary to go out, people would be fully armed, and the entire Z Country had entered a state of national alert.
The TV news reported the incident daily. Many frontline medical workers also contracted the virus while treating patients, resulting in multiple deaths.
Under such circumstances, many doctors would rather quit their jobs than continue taking risks.
International medical organizations also sent professional physicians to help, but the situation did not improve.
This situation was hardly better than the panic that ancient commoners felt when talking about plagues.
Because of this, many large enterprises in the country have given their employees time off.
Lu Moqing took the rare opportunity to stay home with his wife and child.
"Xuxu, where are you going?"
Lu Moqing, sitting in the living room, called out to Qiaoxu when he saw her taking her overcoat and preparing to leave.
