Chapter 769: What Revenge Is He Seeking?

Chapter 769: Chapter 769: What Revenge Is He Seeking?

"What is their relationship?" Ji Hanyu said, "Isn’t it just a collaborative one?"

"No..." Bai Haoxue shook her head, "Actually, Professor Lan, named Lan Sizhan, was a university, graduate, and doctoral classmate and research partner of my father. They’ve known each other for decades."

Bai Haoxue didn’t hide anything from Ji Hanyu. She told him everything she overheard outside between Bai Xiang and Lan Sizhan.

Including the fact that the JX virus inside Ji Hanyu’s body was researched personally by her father.

"So..." Ji Hanyu paused and said, "So, Lan Sizhan has been researching the JX virus for decades already."

"But, I’m curious, what revenge was he talking about?"

Bai Haoxue looked up at Ji Hanyu, "Isn’t the main point that the virus inside your body was researched and injected by my father?"

"That is indeed a key point, but..." Ji Hanyu changed the subject, "I’ve actually suspected this for a long time."

When he began to suspect Bai Xiang, he had essentially come to this conclusion already.

So now that it was confirmed, it didn’t surprise him.

"Ji Hanyu..." Bai Haoxue looked at Ji Hanyu, suddenly at a loss for words.

"I know what you want to say. I also know you’re feeling very bad, conflicted, and troubled right now."

Ji Hanyu said, "To be honest, I feel conflicted and troubled too...

No matter who researched and created the JX virus, I hate them."

Bai Haoxue chose to be honest, and so did Ji Hanyu.

He was the most direct victim of the JX virus, and Ji Hanyu was someone who always avenged his grievances.

Every time the JX virus acted up in his body, the only way to describe it was a fate worse than death, life and death torment.

This was just the sentiment of an observer, but he was both the victim and experiencer.

What does a fate worse than death truly feel like?

What is life and death torment truly like?

He was the one who personally experienced it...

That pain, that torment, had long turned into hatred through countless episodes of insanity, madness, and feeling worse than death.

This hatred often came more directly, more deeply; it wasn’t something that happened overnight—it’s been entrenched for over four years.

Ji Hanyu was no saint.

He couldn’t just let go of his hatred because Bai Xiang was Bai Haoxue’s father.

If Ji Hanyu were to tell Bai Haoxue at this moment that because Bai Xiang is your father, I no longer hate him,

such words would be too pretentious and too false, and Bai Haoxue wouldn’t believe them anyway.

"Ji Hanyu..." Bai Haoxue hugged Ji Hanyu even tighter, "I know the words ’I’m sorry’ are hated, and in the face of the harm you’ve suffered, they feel so light and insignificant.

But... I still want to say sorry to you on behalf of my father."

Bai Haoxue looked up at Ji Hanyu, "At the same time, I also want to express my stance to you.

My father is the direct culprit of your pain, and whatever you want to do is justifiable.

But... but, could you give him a chance to make it up to you?

Lan Sizhan has been researching that damn JX virus for decades, but he hasn’t formulated or completed it successfully.

Yet my father successfully formulated and researched it.

Although he told Lan Sizhan that it was accidental and now he can’t research or formulate it again,

but..." Bai Haoxue said, "I know what kind of person my father is.

I firmly believe he knows how to formulate the JX virus in your body and its antidote..."
