Imperial Commander: His Pretty Wife Is Spoiled Rotten Chapter 1383 - Make You Proud

Chapter 1383: Make You Proud

After everything had been sorted, Yun Xi looked at the man in front of her who had worry and reluctance in his eyes.

“I’ll be in the lab, don’t worry.”

She stretched out her hand wanting to touch him, but quickly retracted it after a slight gesture. Although she had sanitized her entire body, washed her hands countless times, and was reeking of disinfectant, she still did not dare to touch him. For the first time, she had a premonition that the end of the world was just around the corner.

Mu Feichi looked at her silently, his tightly clenched hands in his jacket pockets balled into fists, and his dark eyes filled with worry and helplessness. This was the path she had chosen by herself, and he had said that he would not interfere or try to stop her. Besides, this was also the responsibility and burden she would inevitably carry if she were to become a doctor in the future. Apart from supporting her, he could do nothing else.

Even if he felt distressed and helpless, he could only do his best to support her in her pursuits, and this was precisely what attracted him most to her. This was how the woman he admired and loved should be: strong enough to shoulder her responsibilities; bold enough to come face to face with death. She had the courage to join him on the battlefield, so he believed that she would find the strength to overcome these trying times just as well.

“You are still in the incubation period yourself. During this time, you must disinfect yourself and avoid the chance of infection according to my instructions. If there are any signs of fever, you must let me know immediately. I don’t want you to end up sick while I’m still fine.”

“Okay…” Mu Feichi responded gloomily and felt a dull pain in his chest. “I’ll do everything that I promised you, so you better keep your word and don’t let me down.”

Yun Xi’s eyes twitched at the sound of his aggrieved tone. Although her man was wearing a mask, his eyes looked sad and pitiful. It was her first time seeing such a reserved look on his masculine face, which really did not fit his image as a military commander of the country.

She smiled cheerfully and said softly, “I will make you proud.” Those five words she spoke carried with them a sort of magic that instantly calmed Mu Feichi’s heart. Gritting his teeth, he turned around and quietly followed Su Hang into his private laboratory. They each had their own tasks to execute, and since the situation was dire, everyone quickly occupied themselves with their respective affairs.

Yun Xi had asked Zhao Yumo to help her take a leave of absence from school and had explained to her the situation in detail while reminding her of the precautions to take. Although no virus infection had been detected in him, she still felt it was necessary to warn her not to visit Jiang Chenghuan for the time being. After all, he could still be in the incubation period.

They were running out of time, and Yun Xi did not want to waste a single moment. Especially since Grandfather Jiang was an elderly man, well into his later years, and she did not know how severely this virus would affect him.

Fortunately, his condition was still in the early stages, and the disease could still be contained within the controllable range. As for the rest, the old man would have to buy time from the Grim Reaper himself.

The laboratory was lively day and night, and with the help of experts and professors invited by Mu Feichi, the research of several laboratories was being carried out concurrently. However, what Yun Xi had dreaded eventually happened. In the cold winter, the entire Jun Country began to have a ma.s.sive outbreak of the virus infection. In addition to the notices and announcements issued before, more and more people began to pay attention to this virus, and the new virus began to adopt the name of severe acute respiratory syndrome, or SARS for short.

Everything was on track with the timeline from her previous life. Yun Xi stood in the laboratory with her mask on, watching the news reports outside through a gla.s.s window as she held her breath in fear.

The news media reported new patients every day, and the situation became more serious as time pa.s.sed, causing panic in many cities and provinces. Fortunately, Mu Feichi had made advance preparations for various departments throughout the cities and provinces to pacify the rumors and the panic of fluctuating prices in the market, and was able to temporarily suppress market chaos.
