My Amazing Boyfriend

Chapter 37

Human Hearts Are Separated With Pool Floats 

Late at night, in the dark corridor of the Research Center, only the sound of leather shoes could be heard; it was quiet and eerie.
Professor Li's expression was gloomy and frosty.
He walked into the office and turned on the light, but suddenly saw a man sitting in a swivel chair by the table, with his back to the door and a glass of red wine in his hand.

Professor Li was startled, and suddenly leaned against the cabinet behind him.

Ye Chen turned around, his cheeks were flushed, and the red wine bottle on the table had been reduced by half.
However, his eyes were clear, and he didn't look like he was drunk at all.

Realizing it was someone familiar, Professor Li was still shocked, “Ye Chen? Why haven't you left yet? Why didn't you turn on the lights?”

Ye Chen looked at the red wine in his wine glass, and his voice was a little drunk, “Because I know that teacher will come here every night to check.”

“How much wine did you drink?”

Ye Chen smiled, wine will not get him drunk, it just strengthens his courage.

Professor Li faintly felt that Ye Chen had something to say to him, but those words were definitely not what he wanted to hear.
So he pretended to relax and walked to the closest to get the isolation gown, “I still need to work, and we can’t drink in the laboratory, so hurry up and go home.”

Ye Chen didn't move, he raised his eyes to look at his teacher, who was familiar yet also unfamiliar.
Watching Professor Li wearing the isolation gown nonchalantly, Ye Chen asked slowly, “Teacher, did you replace the prop that cut Tian Jingzhi's palm? Was that anonymous blood sample report Tian Jingzhi’s?”

Professor Li’s body stiffened, was he finally caught?

After a long time, he hung the isolation gown back into the closet.
He turned around and sat beside Ye Chen, looking a little dejected, “Everything you said just now was indeed correct.”

Although Ye Chen had already realized the truth, he still felt it was inconceivable when Professor Li admitted it: “Why? Why would you do such a thing?”

He doesn't want to harm people.
The reason why he worked harder than anyone was because this research was meant to benefit mankind.

Professor Li poured himself a glass of wine and drank it: “Our research center has been established for more than a decade.
Although there are some new discoveries, there has been no major breakthrough.
I’ve worked hard, even sacrificing my family.
I can't fail, and I can't let go of any opportunity.
Ye Chen, can you understand me?”

Ye Chen didn't understand, “Opportunity? Why do you think Tian Jingzhi is an opportunity? What do you know?”

“That car accident was so serious, but Tian Jingzhi came out almost unscatched.
Isn't it strange? The car was totaled, but I have seen her medical records.
There were no scratches on any part of her body, not to mention any soft tissue contusions.
Both the police and doctor concluded she was very lucky, but I don't think so…
There are many people with magical constitutions in this world, some people are charged after being struck by lightning and others can innately float on water.
My hypothesis was that Tian Jingzhi's body also contained something special.
And the experimental results have indeed verified my guess, but unfortunately the detected perfect repair enzyme is too small.
Even if Tian Jingzhi's blood is drained completely, it cannot be effectively extracted and studied.”

Ye Chen was stunned and looked at him as if he was seeing a ghost: “Teacher, don’t you know this is a crime?”

“I know.” The volume of Professor Li's voice lowered slowly, with a hint of pain, “I'm sorry…
I'm sorry…
I'm not worthy of being your teacher…”

Looking at Professor Li's pale face, Ye Chen's anger gradually subsided, and it slowly turned into pity.
Really…
what a poor and pathetic researcher.
He closed his eyes, stood up, and planned to leave; he had nothing more to say.

When he walked to the door, Ye Chen turned around and said, “Teacher, this is the last time I will turn a blind eye.
Make sure you don't commit a second similar incident in the future, otherwise I won't remain idle.”

Without waiting for Professor Li to answer, Ye Chen quickly left the office.

Professor Li sat for a long time.
Even to his most proud student, he could only choose to lie.
He didn't tell Ye Chen about the resurrection of the mummified corpse, nor did he explain the real source of those perfect repair enzymes in Tian Jingzhi's blood.
He has his plans and his own reasons… And Ye Chen would never agree with these reasons.

For the next couple of days, Professor Li didn’t seek out Ye Chen much.
Ye Chen also didn't know what to say to his teacher, so both of them would only nod at one another when they met.

Ye Chen thought it would be fine if it was over, and that was the only thing that Professor Li had done.

One day, Ye Chen came to work at night and was about to park in the underground garage.
When he looked up, he saw a low-key business car parked at the entrance of the Research Center.
Professor Li hurried out of the gate and looked around vigilantly, making sure no one was paying attention before getting into the car.

Feeling this was very unusual, Ye Chen didn't think twice before quickly driving to keep up with that car.
He followed them and stopped at the red light at the intersection.
Zhang Xuanxuan’s advertisement appeared on the large electronic screen on the outer wall of the shopping mall; it had successfully diverted Ye Chen’s attention.
When the red light turned green, Ye Chen restarted the car, but he could no longer find the car he was following.

Ye Chen stopped the car on the side of the road and looked helplessly at the dark street.

Teacher, what are you really hiding?
