“Everything will be okay.”

Xiang Wan hugged Fang Yuanyuan to console her. She also let her wear her coat.

“Wear this!”

Fang Yuanyuan seemed confused for a moment. “I’m not cold.”

“You are. Your hands are so cold like ice!”

She was wearing pajamas at home. The temperature indoors was a sharp contrast with the temperature outside. She might have forgotten about the cold weather outside while in a state of anxiety and fear. Now that she was calmer, she was almost already trembling from the cold.

“Alright, I know you dote on me the best!”

Fang Yuanyuan chuckled in joy and wore the coat.

“My dear cousin, why did I suddenly feel that… you’re so manly!”

Xiang Wan snorted. “…”

She scrunched her nose at her, but before she could say anything, someone placed a coat on her shoulders.

Oh! The real manly one was here.

She looked up and saw Bai Muchuan’s indifferent face. “Your Excellency, you’re sick and needed the coat…”

He was expressionless. “I don’t want you to feel cold!”

“…” Xiang Wan insisted. “You should listen to me.”

“So what if I’m sick? I’m a man.”

He did not allow her to reject his offer. He left after putting the coat on her shoulders.

“You both stay here and wait. I’ll go check out the situation.”

“… Alright!”

There were times when Bai Muchuan was unwilling to budge, especially at such a time. He was most reluctant to see Xiang Wan turning down his acts of concern. For him, it didn’t make sense for his woman to be left enduring the cold when he was all warm and pleasant. He felt that men should protect their women since men were naturally physically stronger than women… Although Xiang Wan didn’t think that she was that weak, she was contented to have someone fussing over her.

“I feel like I’ve eaten dog food while I’m out here in the cold—”

Fang Yuanyuan pretended to sigh sadly. “I’m missing my Huanghuang already. Sis, I’m going back to Jin City first thing in the morning tomorrow.”

Xiang Wan didn’t stop her.

They were very close since young and wished they could stick to each other every day.

However, they were now grown up and had their own lives and careers. Fang Yuanyuan and Huang He were legally married. One could already make out how strong their ties were when Fang Yuanyuan left Huanghuang, who was in the hospital, to come to the Capital to ensure that Xiang Wan didn’t get bullied.

Xiang Wan replied, “I’ll send you to the airport tomorrow.”

“There’s no need for such trouble. I’ll just call for a cab.”

Fang Yuanyuan sounded relaxed as she looked around the surroundings.

“I know that you’re busy. Now that this happened, you’re going to be busier! If I continue to stay here, you still have to make time to take care of me. I feel like I’m a burden…”

“Hurhur!” Xiang Wan begged to differ. “You’re overthinking.”

“Mm?” What does that mean? Thought Fang Yuanyuan.

She turned to Xiang Wan, bewildered. “I’ve never made time to take care of you at all…”

“… D*rn! That’s cruel!”

Fang Yuanyuan pouted as she replied when she suddenly realized that Xiang Wan had a change of expression.

The latter was staring at her as though she had seen a ghost.

“What’s the matter?” she asked Xiang Wan.

“Where the cat?” Xiang Wan’s voice turned a little hoarse. “Where’s Blackie?”

“When I came out, I didn’t see him. I forgot…”

“…”

The crowd was discussing and talking about the incident.

Two police officers were being carried out and was sent to the hospital.

Xiang Wan saw that the policemen were totally unconscious.

From the expressions of the paramedic, their condition seemed to be more severe than what she had thought.

The police were very efficient. In less than 30 minutes, they had managed to bring in a biochemical weapons specialist to the scene. The scope of evacuation extended to the entire neighborhood. Xiang Wan also saw Bai Muchuan’s supposed younger brother, Bai Muxuan, who came to the area.

This time, he was not alone. He had brought a team of armed forces.

They were fully geared, tasked to comb through every nook and cranny of the neighborhood in case another biochemical sprayer was hidden in the area.

The search lasted for the entire afternoon.

When night fell, the neighborhood was given the clearance.

However, for the sake of security, a group of special police stayed behind.

Their look of readiness unnerved the residents.

Also, the police were unable to control such news from going out to the internet.

Various pictures spread on many social media platforms. Since there would always be a group of people who would ‘spice up’ the story, it quickly gained attention and got on hot news. It sparked off a heated discussion amongst the netizens, and inevitably, the public expressed their concern and fear…

Thus, after the ‘zombie’ drug, a biohazard had appeared?

Such rumors were appalling to the ordinary people on the street.

Whatever people had heard or seen in movies was now happening in reality.

Everyone felt that their lives could be in danger at any moment!

The netizens couldn’t stop talking about it, their imaginations were driving them wild…

…

“Sister Yuanyuan, you should have been more careful.”

In the Gossip group chat, Salimu expressed his sincere regret.

“If not for Teacher Xiang who sensed that something was amiss, if not for Captain Bai who called up to verify with the building management, who knows how it would turn out… Maybe when Huang He came to the Capital, he could only collect your corpse…”

Touchwood!

Fang Yuanyuan replied, “… Shush!”

She sent a ‘shush’ emoticon as well.

Salimu, however, did not get what she was trying to say.

“Now you’re scared, right? You almost lost your life.”

Fang Yuanyuan responded, “… Hey, stop talking about this anymore.”

Salimu didn’t reply, and the next moment, Tang Yuanchu messaged the group chat and even pinged Cheng Zheng. “Are the results out? What kind of poisonous substance is that?”

Cheng Zheng was quick to reply. “There’s no news so far. However, if it’s really a new type of biochemical weapon, I’m afraid it’s something that I have never heard of before…”

Tang Yuanchu responded thereafter, “This thing is too scary. The spray device is especially ingenious as well. I heard that if the device didn’t detect any water vapor in the air, it would not be triggered…”

If it didn’t detect any water vapor in the air, it would not be triggered.

However, the device was ‘installed’ in the bathroom, it could undoubtedly detect water vapor.

It was merely a matter of time…

Tang Yuanchu replied after a while, “That means the one they wanted to deal with might not be Fang Yuanyuan! Could it be….”

Xie Wanwan?

He thought in his head but didn’t say it out loud.

No one asked either.

Salimu was the first to break the ice. “Sister Yuanyuan, did you use the bathroom?”

Fang Yuanyuan replied after seeing her name, “… I did. When Xiang Wan told me that something is not right, I got curious and checked the bathroom, but I didn’t find anything strange.”

Tang Yuanchu responded, “That device was well-hidden. It was stuck on the pipes under the sink. Generally, one would not think to check that place.”

Fang Yuanyuan was quick to say what was one her mind. “Well… I used the sink to wash my hands.”

Tang Yuanchu seemed like he was heaving a sigh of relief as he replied, “… What a narrow escape!”

Fang Yuanyuan replied rather slowly, “These people only entered the bathroom since they told me it was leaking. They loitered around the sink and bathroom… I was standing at the entrance of the bathroom, and I didn’t pay much attention to what they touched… It’s all my fault for not sensing that something’s up with them.”

Tang Yuanchu didn’t waste any of his time to reassure Fang Yuanyuan. “It’s not your fault. Most of us wouldn’t have thought that they were crooks and up to no good.”
