Chapter 23: Research and Development People, They are All Me
But how could they ever lay hands on him? They could only press down on him continuously, encourage him, remind him.
Regrettably, nothing worked.
Yun Long’s addiction was too severe, having reached a level that not even his formidable willpower could endure.
Now, only by giving him drugs could his suffering be alleviated.
Seeing him in such agony, in the throes of breakdown, Shang Shi and the others were almost driven to compassion to find him drugs. In fact, they could supply him with drugs for a lifetime, but they could not do so.
Because if the consumption continued, Yun Long would die sooner or later.
“Whether he is dying or whatever it is, no one is allowed to go soft on him!” Hao Yansen ordered with an icy face, “If anyone dares to secretly give it to him, I will kill that person.”
“But Young Master, he simply can’t bear it,” Shang Shi couldn’t help saying.
“Shut up.” Hao Yansen gave him a stern glance, “Even if you dare to go against my wishes, I will kill you just the same.”
“Yes, I won’t!” Shang Shi solemnly promised.
However, the very next second, he was shocked to widen his eyes, because Yun Long had bitten his own tongue in an attempt to commit suicide!
“Crack—” Before Shang Shi could react to stop him, Hao Yansen had already charged forward with a quick step, directly dislocating Yun Long’s jaw with a grip.
“Ah, ah…” Yun Long, with a dislocated jaw, shrieked with blood gurgling from his mouth.
Seeing him this way, everyone was stunned.
Yun Long, one of the most strong-willed among them, was absolutely a man of iron.
In the past, he never blinked an eye in the face of all the torture.
Yet now… he was so tormented that he wanted to end his own life.
You can imagine how agonizing, how devastated he must be.
Their brother, tormented to the brink of suicide – the shock was simply too heavy for their hearts to bear.
Hao Yansen’s eyes had become chillingly dark, void of any light.
Everyone was holding back, knowing that if they got their hands on those responsible at this moment, they would tear them to pieces.
“There’s no other way. I’ll increase his dosage once more, but only this one time, otherwise it would severely damage his body,” Bai Lang said with a grave face as he went to fetch the medicine. Hao Yansen said nothing, which obviously meant he agreed with Bai Lang’s decision.
Yun Long, in his current state, was beyond their help.
And it was at this moment that Mo Jun walked in, “Has he consumed a lot of drugs?” she abruptly asked.
Hao Yansen turned his gaze toward her, his breath cold and silent.
But his meaning was clear – this had nothing to do with her, and it would be best if she asked nothing.
“Have you investigated my background?” Mo Jun fixed him with a question, staring at him.
Hao Yansen was a bit unclear about her intentions, “What are you trying to say?”
Mo Jun stated firmly, “You must have investigated. Then you should know that I am from the Mo Family. The Mo Family got their start in pharmaceuticals, and their pharmaceutical technology is quite advanced.”
Hao Yansen caught on to her implication immediately, his lips curling up wickedly, “Are you suggesting that your Mo Family can create an antidote for the drugs?”
“We can try.”
“But the products you make are cosmetics, not drugs for treating the body. Besides, as far as I know, your standing in the Mo Family isn’t high; perhaps you don’t have the authority to decide.”
Mo Jun nodded, “You’re right, my status in the Mo Family isn’t high. But I don’t need to have authority because I am the person in charge of product development for the Mo Family.”
