Jean held her shoulders and comforted her warmly.
“This may all just be a coincidence, so don’t overthink it. You’ve already done a great job just now. If you’re still thinking about it later on, you can just get someone to look into it.”
Neera thought for a moment, and shook his head. “No, it’s better not to do that just yet. Let me do a bit more research first. Once I understand it better, then I’ll know where to start.”
Thinking of the old man’s pulse, she frowned again.
“The wug on the old man was unusual, just like Avery’s. I’m worried that someone is developing wugs maliciously. Think about it, if there was someone producing wugs en masse, it could be a very scary thing. And those who can control this kind of wug must be related to the medical families…”
“Medical families?” It was the first time that Jean had heard such a theory.
Neera nodded. “It’s normal for you to not know about it. Very few people know about wugs. Hundreds of years ago, when ancient medical skills were prevalent, there were large families that produced wug poison. Some of them could cure, but some of them could harm.”
Jean roughly understood. “Alright, then you should do your research first. If you need anything, you can just let me know.”
Neera had lost her mood to have fun after the incident, so Jean just brought her home.
On the way home, Neera looked apologetic.
“I’m sorry. I wanted to give you a romantic night. I didn’t think that something like such a sudden emergency would happen and we’d have to end our date so suddenly.”
Jean smiled. “You’re already said that it was a sudden emergency, who would’ve expected it? You saved someone’s life on our date tonight, which is a good deed! As for the romantic night, we can always still redo it sometime later! Plus, I had a really good time tonight. Being able to learn about your past is the most satisfying thing to me.”
His tone was very gentle and smooth. In Jean’s pitch black pupils, there were stars, and all he could see was her.
She felt very loved in her heart.
She realized that this man was always very tolerant of her.
If she felt moody, he could always comfort her with just a few words.
At that moment, she curled her lips and nodded. “Alright, I’ll remember that I owe you a romantic night.”
Then, she thought about something else and changed the topic. “Oh yeah, I may need to leave for about a week or so.”
Jean was stunned for a moment. “Where are you going?”
“To the World Medical Alliance headquarters.” She answered truthfully.
“The World Medical Alliance?” He had heard of them before.
It is said that the world’s most cutting-edge and elite medical talents would gather there, and they would only take thirty applicants each year.
The ones that would succeed were all exceptional talents in the medical field.
The most important thing was the Alliance has great appeal and a vast network. It was no exaggeration to say that it was extremely powerful.
“Why do you want to go there suddenly? What’s the occasion?” Jean asked.
Neera answered while she played with his fingers. “To gather some information, of course. The library in their headquarters contains the largest collection of medical books in the world, including millions of ancient medical books. It’s heaven for all doctors. I learned most of my ancient medical skills from the books there.”
He then understood her intention. “You’re going there because you want to learn more about wugs?”
Neera nodded her head frankly.
The next second, Jean narrowed his eyes, his tone a little annoyed.
“That means, you’re leaving me for a week for another man?”
Neera was stunned by his words, but started to chuckle.
“What nonsense are you thinking about! No! I’m going there to improve my own medical skills. I haven’t had a deeper understanding about wugs before this, and I’ve certainly haven’t participated in any research about it. Now that there are more and more cases of it popping up around me, of course I want to go learn more about it, and not for any other reason. In case anyone dear to me got infected with it or something similar to it, I would know how to deal with it…”
After listening to her explanation, Jean snorted coldly, as if he wasn’t buying it.
“Your reason cannot convince me.”
He wasn’t actually upset, he just wanted to tease her.
But Neera thought that he was really angry, so she tugged on his arm and coaxed him nicely.
“How can you not believe me, I’m really not doing this for Avery Cox… Well, it’s not fully, at least. After all, he was my first wug patient. But I want to learn about it deeper for the sake of myself and Uncle Chad. Plus, ANXIN Group and the Coxes are now in a collaborative relationship. In the future, ANXIN Group’s high-tech sector will need to rely on the Coxes to succeed! So, please don’t be angry. You know very well that I like you the most! So how can you be jealous about this?”
