Chapter 206: Chapter 206: Will There Be Danger to Life?

Li Qiao’s words were straightforward.

The laboratory wanted to find the cause of Guan Mingyu’s illness, which would inevitably require a lot of time for research and testing.

And she herself would become the sole subject of various experiments and tests.

Therefore, the status of a volunteer was the most logical.

At this time, after listening to Li Qiao’s explanation, Guan Mingyu hesitated for a long time and asked cautiously, “Are those experiments…

free?”

Li Qiao nodded, “Yes, they’re free.”

Guan Mingyu obviously breathed a sigh of relief, then immediately asked, “Is there any risk to my life?”

She didn’t have much social experience, but she understood that there’s no such thing as a free lunch.

Li Qiao tapped her fingertips on the tabletop, speaking bluntly, “This, I cannot guarantee.

Currently, we are still exploring the cause of your illness, and this process requires repetitive research and screening.

Including the various trial medications used, we cannot rule out the possibility of adverse reactions.”

Once the volunteer agreement is signed, it means that any situation that arises during the trial is voluntarily assumed by you.”

“So, think about it carefully, whether you want to cooperate with the laboratory for medical research.

If you’re unwilling, I won’t force you.”

Li Qiao analyzed the potential situations in the experiments with tranquil composure.

Pathological experiments are inherently complex and tedious, and results from research are not achievable overnight.

It was not unreasonable for Guan Mingyu to be hesitant.

Having said that, Li Qiao saw her caught in a struggle and glanced unobtrusively at the restaurant’s diagonally opposite corner.

She pulled at the corner of her lips, her gaze open yet indifferent, “Scientific experiments are meticulous, and the project team will be led by Academician Jiang Hande.

If you want to know more details, Guan Mingchen, you might as well come and ask me directly.

Don’t bother taking sneak photos with your cell phone–it’s pointless.”

Guan Mingyu’s complexion turned pale in an instant.

And the man sitting at the diagonally opposite corner of the restaurant, with his back to them, also visibly shuddered.

The man was Guan Mingchen.

Li Qiao’s gaze shifted back and forth between the two of them, leaning casually against the wooden chairback, with a smile that was not quite a smile.

At this point, Guan Mingyu stood up and walked swiftly to the table diagonally across from them, tugging on the cloth at the other’s shoulder, urging him, “Brother, stop recording.

Come over here.”

Guan Mingchen, simple-minded, rubbed his forehead in irritation, his left hand still in the position of taking a sneaky photo from the right armpit, sighing awkwardly.

All those movies showed people taking sneaky shots like this, how come he was caught out?

After a moment, the siblings sat opposite Li Qiao.

Guan Mingchen, with a dark, rugged face, also had his ears flushing with embarrassment.

After a moment of silence among the three, Li Qiao impatiently lifted her chin, “What do you want to ask?”

Guan Mingchen looked up, saw Li Qiao was looking at him, and after thinking hard for a long time, he squeezed out a sentence, “Are you using my sister as a lab rat?”

Guan Mingyu elbowed him, “Bro, don’t talk nonsense.”

Li Qiao glanced at Guan Mingchen, neither confirming nor denying, “She is a research subject for the laboratory.

If you want to understand it that way, you’re not wrong.”

Guan Mingchen: “…”

At this point, Guan Mingyu, picking at her nails, looked steadily at Li Qiao and after a few seconds of hesitation, made up her mind, “Miss Li, I’m willing to sign the volunteer agreement.”

“Mingyu!” Guan Mingchen exclaimed in a low voice, “They are clearly using you as a lab rat for their research; we can’t agree to this.

I’ve seen news before, human trials are illegal.”
