Supreme Heir Son-in-law

Chapter 988 - 987: Land of Two Dilemmas

"You said you could’ve done this earlier, why do you have to suffer before admitting defeat?" Xu Ke reached out, gently patting the Human Resources Director’s face.

At this moment, Xu Ke was like the most classic villain in a movie, carrying an aura unique to villains.

The Human Resources Director frantically nodded upon hearing Xu Ke’s words, "I know, I was wrong, so wrong. I’m willing to correct my mistakes now. What do you want to ask? Ask me anything."

The Human Resources Director trembled as she pointed to her own chest, looking pale and fearful at Xu Ke, scared he wouldn’t ask her questions, afraid she’d be abandoned like this.

Later, Xu Ke didn’t show any intention of giving up on her. "What kind of drugs did you give them? What are the side effects? What kind of harm does it cause to the human body?" Xu Ke was quite concerned about this issue. Upon hearing the willingness to confess from the other side, this was the first question he asked.

"Just some simple drugs that numb the nerves, with a little stimulant added. It won’t cause any side effects to the body; it will be flushed out of the system and won’t cause any harm. A few hours later, it won’t be detected by any machines." The Human Resources Director eagerly answered upon hearing Xu Ke’s question.

Fearing a delayed response would lead Xu Ke to take drastic action against her.

Luckily, after hearing the answer, Xu Ke didn’t take any crazy actions, although his face still looked unpleasant.

"How can the drug effects on them be neutralized?" Xu Ke asked with a frown, looking troubled.

"To neutralize the effects is simple, just engage with them. If not, it might cause some damage to their nervous system, but I don’t know what kind of damage since those who took the drug won’t have a vacant sense." The Human Resources Director forced a bitter smile.

The Human Resources Director looked bad, but Xu Ke’s face looked even worse.

Thinking about how he just refused Tangtang and Guoguo last night, and today they’ve been affected by this drug, only leaving him with two choices.

Engage or not engage.

If he does, what would the relationship between the three of them be? He can’t promise anything to the two girls, and his feelings towards them are purely the fondness of an elder brother. He doesn’t want this fondness to change, nor can it change.

If not, it might cause damage to their nervous systems, but the woman in front can’t explain precisely what damage.

Yet, the human body is miraculous. If his hesitation today leads to irreversible damage to their nerves, ruining their future, how could he face the two sisters again?

"If I send them to the hospital, will the doctors there have any means?" Xu Ke asked.

"It’s useless. This drug was initially designed to prevent hospital doctors from discovering it, so it’s specially made. Even if you take them to the hospital for tests, doctors won’t find anything, and they’ll just think the sisters were inherently like this." The Human Resources Director explained.

The last retreat is blocked, as Xu Ke turned his gaze to the two sisters.

Right now, their cheeks had become flushed at some point, as if they were cooked prawns.

Moreover, they regained a certain level of control over their movements, at least compared to earlier; they can manage to squirm.

Meanwhile, their eyes were dreamy, making small whimpering sounds.

It’s obvious they are feeling particularly uncomfortable at this moment, and Xu Ke also feels terrible, being the first time he has felt such internal conflict.

The Human Resources Director kneeled on the floor, glancing at the sisters lying on the sofa, then at the distressed Xu Ke.

Then the Human Resources Director said, "Our floor has a strict rest room; its confidentiality is particularly good, soundproof too. If you need, I can take you there, just let me go."

Xu Ke still hadn’t decided how to resolve the situation with Tangtang and Guoguo. Upon hearing the Human Resources Director’s words, he nearly instinctively frowned.

But clearly, the situation didn’t allow Xu Ke to contemplate further, as the sisters lying on the sofa had reached their limit already.

Their hair was drenched in sweat, sticking to their faces, while their sounds grew weaker and more pitiful, like newborn kittens.

The sound made people involuntarily soften their hearts, wishing to cradle the kitten close to their chest, willing to do anything for it.

"Is there really no other solution?" Xu Ke stubbornly asked.

The Human Resources Director glanced at Xu Ke with surprise, unable to understand why he wasn’t inclined to act with these pretty girls even at this stage.

This shouldn’t be the case; for such free offers, men shouldn’t refuse, right? Why is he considering rejection?

What the Human Resources Director was thinking was almost written all over her face, and with one glance, Xu Ke knew her thoughts.

Yet Xu Ke had no intention to enlighten her; this was between them, and no outsider needed to intervene.

"Don’t look at me that way, just answer my questions." Xu Ke said.

The Human Resources Director instantly put away all expressions, fearful that her gaze might not recover, lowering her head.

"I’ve told you all the solutions I know, aside from these, I have no more." The Human Resources Director reluctantly replied.

Seeing that the Human Resources Director really couldn’t offer more solutions, and the sisters’ condition seemed far from good.

Xu Ke knew that he now must make a decision.

This isn’t a moment he could evade.

Xu Ke felt he contemplated for a long time; within this lengthy period, he thought of many things, but in reality, only over ten seconds passed.

"Where is the resting room you mentioned? Take me there." Xu Ke finally decided, asking.

Hearing Xu Ke finally inquire about the resting room’s location, the Human Resources Director breathed a sigh of relief.
