Chapter 696 - 213: Meditation and Announcement
How much was donated at the party was quickly forgotten, and people were more interested in Mrs. Lu’s intention to divorce.Su Xiaocai was no exception. Later, she kept pestering Admiral Bai to find out the follow-up.
As soon as Mrs. Lu proposed a divorce, Admiral Lu, who originally planned to take a vacation and bring his son to the Capital Star to maintain connections, immediately postponed his vacation, returned to the army, and delayed time.
Only afterward did he contact Mrs. Lu: "Calm down, I’m not blaming you, the party has always been organized by you..."
"So what? Mr. Lu, you don’t need to say more. Don’t think that by returning to the army, this marriage can be avoided. After three years of separation, I can forcibly divorce. Your absence can’t stop this result. I haven’t done anything to wrong you, but you insist on making me unhappy. If that’s the case, don’t blame me for being heartless."
Mrs. Lu didn’t mind Admiral Lu’s son joining the army.
As long as he rises based on his own abilities, she wouldn’t have any opinion.
What she minded was Admiral Lu using her resources to elevate his stepson.
The stepson had been allocated to the ex-wife, and the child support was settled, so there should be no interference in other matters.
No woman can tolerate her husband having lingering feelings for his ex-wife. If the ex-wife cries, he throws himself into fire and water for her stepson. Who can endure that?
Moreover, Mrs. Lu is a strong woman.
She can clearly distinguish what she wants. The resources and money invested in Admiral Lu have already returned, and since Admiral Lu insists on going his way, she doesn’t care to persist.
Invest in anyone, but never in someone with a clouded mind.
Admiral Lu didn’t have a chance to say a word, as Mrs. Lu hung up on him, swallowing all his prepared reprimands.
Admiral Lu is on the verge of decline, and other admirals can’t help but gloat, though their words are still quite gentle, as long as Admiral Lu remains in position, he holds power.
Either quickly find a second capable wife or stop being entangled with the ex-wife or stepson.
A couple’s struggle, who wins, who loses, remains unrevealed.
Everyone wants to know how Admiral Lu will act.
...
Returning to the sale of the Genetic Healing Medicine, soon after the party, a public hospital on Capital Star was the first to sell the drug.
Patients with severe conditions queued up at the hospital for the medicine. Some sat in wheelchairs waiting, others brought their belongings to camp out, overcrowding the place.
You wouldn’t usually notice so many people troubled by genetic issues, but upon hearing of a miracle drug, they all came out.
Even the Xue Family hired a critically ill patient to queue for them.
Xue Feiting and Yi Xue were unable to have children due to irreparable genes. If they could truly be repaired, they wouldn’t need to adopt; they could have another child.
A few days ago, upon hearing this news, the two could only smile bitterly.
In hindsight, not adopting Su Xiaocai turned out to be a stroke of luck.
Daddy Su’s upbringing allowed for today’s Su Xiaocai. If she had been in their hands, she would have been raised with comprehensive development, as a cultured, obedient, and well-mannered lady.
They valued her, but they would have constrained her.
Just like Xue Huiyi, outwardly she’s indulged to design mechas, but in unseen times, she must learn various etiquettes, social dealings, and arts to cultivate her disposition...
Xue Huiyi learns passively.
Su Xiaocai learns actively, which makes a world of difference.
Xue Feiting, however, was still okay with it. Yi Xue regretted it bitterly, wishing to return to the past and have a child at this time.
At that time, genetic testing wasn’t as convenient as it is now, and some genetic issues were hard to detect.
But Xue Zhiyi had already been born, and even if they didn’t take the drug, Xue Zhiyi would have to try it.
If it could alleviate some symptoms, it would be good.
As long as the drug is effective, production will inevitably increase. Even if they can’t get the medicine now, they might in the future.
The emergence of an effective drug has made the public ecstatic, much like when drugs for cancer and immune issues first appeared, people started discussing it everywhere.
Not only the public discussed it, but the Non-human Research Institute, which had poured countless resources, also held emergency meetings daily.
They wanted to figure out how to acquire the drug’s information.
They had acquired a few pills, but the composition was quite complex, containing several new substances, and they couldn’t tell which component was effective. It’s likely all of them were.
But knowing this was useless; how it was synthesized and how it produced effects all needed research.
A new drug means there’s no literature or paper to reference for now.
It will take a long time for them to research it and create an effective medicine.
What’s the use of that? They can’t profit from the first wave, and further research becomes futile.
