241: Chapter 241 Gao Fangfang: I'm going to knock Gao Yuliang's glasses off!

Gao Fangfang froze for a moment, then quickly stood up: "Hello, Boss. President Bai said you have something important to instruct me on."

Zhao Yang pointed to the bench under the gazebo: "Sit down and let's talk."

Gao Fangfang nodded, sat on the bench, and waited quietly for what was next, appearing somewhat reserved. Although she was an academic, she was well aware of the scale of Xiaohai Pharmaceuticals and understood the Bai family's status in the domestic business and political circles. The young, handsome man before her was actually the big boss behind Xiaohai Pharmaceuticals; the background hidden behind that handsome face was truly terrifying.

Zhao Yang smiled and said: "Don't be nervous. Let me introduce myself first. I currently serve as the Chief Prosecutor at the Handong Province Provincial Peoples Procuratorate."

Gao Fangfang was stunned and blurted out: "Then what about Chief Prosecutor Ji Changming?"

As soon as the words left her mouth, she realized her slip of the tongue, quickly covered her mouth, and her eyes filled with a bit more nervousness.

Zhao Yang didn't mind and smiled: "Chief Prosecutor Ji Changming rushed to the office in the middle of the night, his high blood pressure flared up, he got dizzy and fell down the stairs. He suffered multiple fractures all over his body and is currently hospitalized. You can search for my information first, so that our conversation will go more smoothly."

Bai Xiaohe had said that Gao Fangfang was the same type of person as her, someone whose mind was entirely focused on scientific research. Zhao Yang estimated that she didn't pay much attention to other things. After speaking, Zhao Yang patiently waited for her to look it up herself.

Gao Fangfang took out her phone, half-believing, and searched for the keywords "Zhao Yang" and "Handong Province Provincial Peoples Procuratorate".

A lot of information popped up on the page. She picked official sources and read through them one by one, becoming more shocked the more she read.

A moment later, she put down her phone, feeling more at ease—if he weren't such a Prodigy, how could he be the behind-the-scenes boss of Xiaohai Pharmaceuticals? Looking at Zhao Yang again, her gaze held something different, and she said solemnly: "Boss, it is my honor to work for you."

Zhao Yang waved his hand: "You don't need to be so polite to me, especially when you are in front of your father. In terms of position, he is my superior after all."

Gao Fangfang twitched the corner of her mouth: "My dad is not as good as you, he's far behind."

Zhao Yang laughed: "Don't say that in front of Secretary Gao."

"I..." Gao Fangfang looked troubled, held it in for a while before saying, "Boss, I don't know if you have investigated my relationship with my family?"

Zhao Yang nodded: "I know. But there is one thing that must be handled by you. This concerns the fate of your parents; it's not appropriate for anyone else to step in."

Gao Fangfang was stunned for a moment, then said: "If you want me to persuade my dad to lean towards you politically, I can try, but I don't have the confidence that I can persuade him."

Zhao Yang waved his hand: "You don't like politics, and I won't force you to get involved. The focus today is actually your family affairs. Take a look at this first."

As he spoke, he handed over a file bag and added, "Very few people know about these things, and they won't be leaked, please rest assured."

Gao Fangfang took the file bag with a suspicious look, opened it, and saw several sets of photos and a paternity test report inside. She studied biology, so she understood the meaning of the report at a glance. Looking at the man, the woman, and the child in the photos, she couldn't help but close her eyes in pain.

For the sake of this woman and child, Secretary Gao Yuliang divorced Wu Huifen and secretly married Gao Xiaofeng. And the result? Secretary Gao Yuliang had been shrewd and calculating his whole life, only to end up raising someone else's illegitimate child.

A few minutes later, Gao Fangfang let out a long sigh, looked up, and said: "Thank you, Boss. I will go home tonight. Although I don't want to step through that door again, I am his daughter after all."

Zhao Yang nodded and asked: "What do you plan to do?"

Gao Fangfang shook the things in her hand: "First, I'll slap this right in my dad's face and knock his glasses off. Then I'll make him divorce that fox."

Speaking of this, she suddenly paused, looked at Zhao Yang, and asked: "Boss, tell me, what should my dad do afterward? Should I have him come see you?"

Zhao Yang smiled slightly: "No need, you just vent your anger, don't say anything else. With your dad's ability, he knows what to do. Actually, this is a good thing for his political life."

Gao Fangfang showed a grateful expression and nodded solemnly: "Thank you, Boss."

Zhao Yang felt a stir in his heart.

[Ding! Gao Fangfang's gratitude toward the host has exceeded the threshold, and she is simultaneously affected by the Seal of Hearts Return. Gao Fangfang has established a loyalty-type bond with the host—Repaying Kindness with Devotion.]

[Repaying Kindness with Devotion: Deeply indebted, never forgetting even in death. The host shares all of Gao Fangfang's knowledge and skills.]

[After skill Fusion, the host has mastered a new skill—Biology: Level 6.]

Immediately, Zhao Yang felt a slight itch in his brain, and a massive amount of knowledge about biology flooded in, from microorganisms to genetic research, from basic theory to cutting-edge applications, everything was there.

He gave Gao Fangfang a few more instructions and then stood up and left.

In the knowledge System brought by Gao Fangfang, Zhao Yang discovered some quite interesting things—regarding microbial gene editing. This stuff involved a quite dangerous field, such as using gene editing methods to strengthen the pathogenicity or transmissibility of certain bacteria or viruses, or designing more targeted viral variants against specific genes of certain populations.

Back in the "Sorrow of a Lifetime" mission, there was a description of "Health Incident 1". Since there was a "1", could there be a "2"? Could there be a "3"? As a Dragon Country person who Transmigration from the old space-time, Zhao Yang naturally had some guesses about that "2".

As for the reason behind that incident, everyone was clear about it in their hearts, but they just saw through it without speaking, and even if they spoke, no one would admit it.

Thinking of this, Zhao Yang felt he must take precautions. Although the System had not yet given any corresponding prompts or tasks, he dared not take it lightly.

He remembered very clearly that the fastest medicine to deal with that thing back then was various types of antibodies—even if pure Traditional Chinese Medicine was used for treatment, what ultimately defeated the virus was still the antibodies produced by the human body's own immune System.

And antibodies, in the final analysis, were just certain special proteins. To save their own lives, the powerful and wealthy in some countries used large amounts of human-derived antibodies—that is, antibodies extracted from the bodies of recovered patients.

But the large-scale, low-cost preparation of antibodies had never been achieved, even in the later generations of the old space-time; as for the research on broad-spectrum antibodies, it was far from bearing fruit.

"I still have to do something." Zhao Yang secretly made up his mind. He wanted to catalyze some different things for this space-time, just like he had catalyzed the Hong-9 back then. He thought for a moment and sent a message to Bai Xiaohe: "Come to Dihao Garden tonight to discuss some scientific research matters."

Before long, Bai Xiaohe's reply arrived: "Okay. We can do other things after the discussion. Our research group is taking a day off tomorrow, and we won't officially start working until the day after tomorrow, but you have to be gentle."

Zhao Yang smiled, replied "Okay", and put away his phone.

...

Time reached the afternoon, and Secretary Gao Yuliang suddenly received a call from his wife, Wu Huifen. Wu Huifen's voice revealed an irrepressible joy: "Yuliang, Fangfang is back."
