CHAPTER 366: CHAPTER 366: AVOIDING HIS TOUCH

Ye Ningwan took out an empty medicine bottle and said to Zhao Changyuan, "I only brought out this bottle, and it’s already used up. This is a compound of several detoxifying Chinese herbs I created, with a bit of borneol and cinnabar added. However, it can only temporarily restore the patient’s consciousness, and it’s only effective in a revived state. It can’t completely cure the disease."

"I know it can’t completely cure the disease. There is currently no method for a complete cure. But how many of these pills do you have left? Given today’s situation, it will be worse tomorrow," Zhao Changyuan said.

Ye Ningwan said, "That’s why we need to quickly find decision-makers to make a decision. We need to bring in people from the disease control center and have everyone pay attention to this. I’ve seen a virus overseas that swept through an entire town in just half a month. Fortunately, the transportation wasn’t developed, but ninety percent of the people in that town died."

"So serious?" The nurse gasped, covering her mouth.

Just then, someone knocked on the door.

Two other nurses came in, urgently saying to Zhao Changyuan, "Director, something’s wrong, Doctor Chen seems to have been infected too. He already has rashes on his body."

Zhao Changyuan narrowed his eyes. Doctor Chen had taken protective measures, how could he have been infected?

"I need to meet with the decision-maker in Tong City immediately. It seems this virus is sneaky, and it’s not just about having good protection to avoid it. You need to make all your medical staff in the clinic strengthen their precautions immediately. It’s best to call the disease control center again right now," Ye Ningwan said urgently.

After saying this, she hurriedly called out to Feng Jiuzun and left.

Feng Jiuzun saw her leaving in a rush and asked worriedly, "What’s wrong? Didn’t reach an agreement?"

"That matter is no longer important," Ye Ningwan said urgently, "I need to see the leader now. You don’t need to come with me, hurry back to the hotel. Oh, and destroy all the clothes and throw them away, wash your hands with disinfectant."

"Why?" Feng Jiuzun was stunned.

Ye Ningwan stopped and looked at him solemnly, "Feng Jiuzun, those people just now have an infectious disease. We’ve been in close contact with them, so we might be infected too. Listen, I’m not joking, I’m serious. If you want to survive, do as I say."

"Oh, okay, I understand," Feng Jiuzun nodded.

At this moment, Zhan Hanjue’s car suddenly stopped, and he got out, walking straight towards Ye Ningwan.

"We meet again," Zhan Hanjue greeted.

He reached out intending to touch Ye Ningwan’s shoulder, but she quickly dodged.

Zhan Hanjue’s expression showed a hint of embarrassment, he thought Ye Ningwan was avoiding him.

"I don’t have time to waste with you, leave here quickly," Ye Ningwan said urgently.

Just then, a taxi happened to arrive. Ye Ningwan waved and got into the taxi, there was still some distance to the municipal government, and taking a taxi would be faster.

Zhan Hanjue was completely bewildered!

"What’s going on?"

After Ye Ningwan left, Zhan Hanjue grabbed Feng Jiuzun, who was also leaving.

Feng Jiuzun immediately broke free from him, "She doesn’t want you to touch her, it’s for your good. We were in the clinic just now, in contact with patients, patients with infectious diseases. In any case, she’s very busy, don’t disturb her."

"Infectious disease?" Zhan Hanjue frowned.

Feng Jiuzun could only explain the situation to him, shrugging as he finished, "It’s not that I wanted to tell you this, just because of my cousin’s matter, our families have a vendetta."

"Even with a vendetta, the Feng Family owes me," Zhan Hanjue coldly reminded.

Feng Jiuzun snorted in disdain, "Forget it, I’m not going to argue with you, it’s not about who owes who. In any case, I’ve told you everything, and I think Ye Ningwan would want you to know. Hurry back to the hotel, seal yourself in, and don’t wander around."

Saying that, Feng Jiuzun left.

But Zhan Hanjue stood still, not moving.

Wu reminded him, and only then did he snap back to reality.

"Get everything arranged for me immediately, I need to go to the municipal government," Zhan Hanjue said.

Wu hesitated for a moment but nodded.

Zhan Hanjue also had Wu buy masks and put one on.

Sure enough, when he arrived at the municipal government, Ye Ningwan was still refused at the entrance.

"I’m Zhan Hanjue, I have an appointment," Zhan Hanjue showed his identification.

The receptionist nodded and led him inside.

Ye Ningwan bit her lip but before she could speak, Zhan Hanjue grabbed her hand and pulled her inside.

"We came together, this is my wife," Zhan Hanjue said to the receptionist.

The receptionist was surprised.

He had heard from the security guard earlier at the entrance that a lady wanted to see the leader, but there was no appointment. Naturally, she couldn’t be let in, but unexpectedly, she turned out to be Zhan Hanjue’s wife.

Since the two were married, he couldn’t say much.

After sending the two inside, the leader happened to finish his business too.

The leader initially didn’t accept Ye Ningwan’s advice, fearing it would cause public panic. However, Zhan Hanjue also spoke up for Ye Ningwan, strongly supporting her suggestion.

The leader could only pause for a moment, agreeing, "I’ll hold a meeting to discuss this and let you know when there’s a result."

Then left there.

In the past, he had been sponsored by the Zhan Family, so he had always been grateful to them.

This was also why he was willing to take the time to see Zhan Hanjue despite being busy.

Ye Ningwan didn’t expect Zhan Hanjue to help her like this; after the leader left, she thanked him gratefully, "Thank you for trusting me, but how did you know I wasn’t exaggerating?"

Zhan Hanjue looked at her with deep eyes, saying, "I trust your medical skills and character."

Ye Ningwan: "..."

She looked at him with complex emotions; it would be a lie to say she wasn’t moved. Amidst the gratitude, she couldn’t help but sigh internally.

If he had believed in her like this in the past, how great it would have been.

They wouldn’t have been apart for four years.

Both were silent, neither knowing what to say.

At that moment, Ye Ningwan sneezed.

Zhan Hanjue saw and immediately took out a tissue for her.

However, Ye Ningwan stepped back with a frown, looking somewhat disdainful.

Zhan Hanjue frowned, reaching out to pull her over.

Ye Ningwan angrily shook him off again, "Let go of me, didn’t I tell you not to touch me casually?"

Zhan Hanjue chuckled bitterly, "It was because of me that you had the chance to get in. How come as soon as you get in, you turn your back on someone?"

"I didn’t ask for your help," Ye Ningwan replied confidently.

"Yes, it was my own desire to help you. But you pushed me away not because you don’t want me to touch you, but because you’re afraid you might have the virus and would infect me," Zhan Hanjue exposed her true concern.

Ye Ningwan frowned, "Did Feng Jiuzun tell you?"

Zhan Hanjue nodded, "Otherwise, why would you think I came here?"

"Since you know it’s a virus and contagious, you still followed me here. Hurry up and leave, best return to Jiangcheng quickly. I don’t want to see you anymore," Ye Ningwan feigned harshness.
