Chapter 692 - 211: Gene Therapy Drug (Part 3)
The topic shifted back to the Xue Family’s lawyer, and Su Xiaocai handed the name to Xiang Qian, telling him, "Be careful if you happen to come across anything about this person during the investigation.""A lawyer?"
Upon learning that the investigation target had a lawyer, Xiang Qian was already feeling stressed out. Lawyers were what he feared most; even a tiny bit of overstepping, and they could escalate things to serious matters.
For ordinary people, just a few words of law spoken with a stern face by a lawyer could send chills down their spine.
Xiang Qian knew a bit about the law, and precisely because he knew a bit, he understood how terrifying lawyers could be.
"Be careful, investigate slowly."
"Got it." Xiang Qian sighed.
He’d thought there was a lead connecting the clues, but it got interrupted again. He had just returned from a sanatorium where he tried to gather information, but found that Aunt Li’s old friend couldn’t remember much about the past, seemed a bit dazed, and was unwilling to speak to strangers.
Xiang Qian could only visit frequently, hoping she might have a few moments of clarity and talk about Aunt Li.
He had investigated the Xue Family’s matters before and was almost scared to death. He also didn’t understand how a mere business family like the Xue Family could exert such an oppressive feeling on people.
But the fact that the information had reached Su Xiaocai’s ears meant someone must have said something.
Coupling this with thoughts of the two actor friends, what else was unclear?
Beauty is indeed deceiving!
Not long ago, Xiang Qian spent ten days in the hospital, successfully getting some excess skin cut and smoothed out.
The healing process was torturous, but the results were good. He became an eye-catching young guy with a rare high percentage of second glances.
Planning to test his charm on the ladies, he got a heavy blow from Su Xiaocai, which made him too scared to entertain the thought again. He might just happen to run into a spy and lose his high-paying job.
Information gathering needs time and sometimes a bit of luck, which Xiang Qian put aside for the moment, deciding to go off for a meal instead.
...
The recent sales of Black Wing had already reached capacity, so Su Xiaocai didn’t need to worry about it not selling well.
Meanwhile, Lu Qin’s pharmaceutical factory had obtained the necessary certification and production permit, and in three days, it would hit the market.
Moving silently but achieving big things, the unveiling of gene-repair drugs might not be as heated as Black Wing’s, but it was still extremely thrilling news.
Su Xiaocai also helped spread the word a bit.
She posted it at midnight, but by 3 AM, it still hadn’t made the hot search.
However, the hotlines of major hospitals were already swamped.
People who had long been troubled by genetic problems saw new hope; the medication wasn’t overly expensive, at least much cheaper than those from the Non-human Research Institute.
Although the repair effect was slow, it was safe!
The side effects were minimal, just some red spots for the allergic crowd, which could be resolved by reducing the dosage, and it posed no life risks.
Once you start taking it, you need to take it daily and continue for two to three years. Even if the gene isn’t fully repaired, there won’t be any sudden pain, nor will it affect life expectancy.
Patients were spreading the news eagerly, wanting to get the medication as soon as possible.
Private hospitals: They didn’t have the medicine, really didn’t have it. Generally, this type of drug needs hospital-related clinical trials before large-scale sales.
Su Xiaocai never mingled with private enterprises other than her shareholders, so the supply would first go to public hospitals, leaving them out of the loop.
The private hospitals didn’t have it, and the public hospitals stated that the medication was tight and would first be provided to patients with severe symptoms, not at liberty to be used freely.
The restriction on medication sales caused voices of discontent among patients, as many sought connections to see if anyone knew Su Xiaocai to get a bottle or two in advance.
At nine in the morning, Su Xiaocai finally woke up, yawning one after another, ignoring the red exclamation marks on her contact device.
Even if they called her, she couldn’t do anything about it.
The medication was in such limited supply that giving it to anyone first would be unfair.
Ensuring that those taking the medication could continue to do so for the long term was necessary for it to be effective.
Currently, it is practically an observation period; only after this, when the drug gets past this period, can it enter the market in large quantities, ensuring more stability.
Besides, the raw materials weren’t sufficient for more production.
After washing up, Su Xiaocai glanced at the numbers one by one as her fingers scrolled through the contacts and names caught her eyes.
She expected that Wu Zhaoxiang and Hu Ning might contact her, but they didn’t.
Wu Zhaoxiang and Hu Ning believed they had already made enough money from a junior like her, and pleading for drugs for friends and family popping up out of nowhere would be inappropriate.
Thus, the two of them stayed as quiet as mice, not disturbing the busy Su Xiaocai.
Fei’er and Luo Min, who were under Su Xiaocai’s care, also showed understanding, refusing anyone who came to them with requests.
In name, they were friends, but in actuality, they were her patrons; everyone understood this.
It was too hard for them to finally latch onto this connection, so they couldn’t do anything to ruin that.
Therefore, the contact number with the most missed calls was Daddy Su’s.
After thinking about it, it wasn’t surprising.
Ji’s mother was over there, as Su Xiaocai herself had asked Daddy Su to look after her a bit.
Ji’s mother had likely turned to him for help.
