Miracle Pill Maker Bullies the Boss - Chapter 1726

1726 Any Regrets?

It was impossible for Huo Yao to conduct the test without the right medical information.

If she could not get the blood in 24 hours, there was no saving her eldest uncle.

Huo Yao rubbed her temples. For the first time in her life, she felt frustrated that she did not learn more medicine back in the day. Otherwise, she would not be left powerless against his condition.

At this moment, her phone vibrated.

!!
It was an incoming call from ‘Tong’.

Huo Yao narrowed her eyes. She got out of computer mode and answered the phone immediately. “Hi, Aunt Tong.”

“Yu, did you access the database?” Shangguan Tong could still see a warning notification blinking on her phone.

“Uh huh. It was me.” Huo Yao did not deny it. When she cracked the password to access the database, she made no effort to conceal her tracks. She paused and said, “Aunt Tong, why did all the data get destroyed?”

Shangguan Tong coughed a couple of times, her face looking increasingly weak and pallid. After some time, she gathered her thoughts. “These things only serve to ruin the balance in the world. No point keeping them around.”

Huo Yao went quiet for a couple of seconds. “You deliberately let Yun out.”

Shangguan Tong smiled sadly. She just knew it was impossible to hide anything from this lass. “Neither of you should remain trapped here. You shouldn’t be burdened by the clan’s fate.”

“You have been bound by the clan’s fate all your life. Do you have any regrets?” asked Huo Yao instead.

Even though she spoke calmly as though she was talking casually, Shangguan Tong’s eyes blurred on the other end of the line.

Regrets? How could she have no regrets?

Unfortunately, she was burdened by the obligations. This was her destiny and responsibility.

There was no escape for her.

Shangguan Tong suppressed the dull pain in her heart and changed the subject. “Why did you suddenly want to access the database?”

Huo Yao looked at her eldest uncle’s blood samples lying on the laboratory table. “I need to conduct a test to make synthetic blood.”

Shangguan Tong was very sensitive to the subject of synthetic blood. She tightened her fists slightly. “Why do you need to conduct the test?”

Huo Yao paused for a couple of seconds before she spoke candidly about Huo Jinfeng’s condition. “I only have 24 hours.”

Shangguan Tong could sense her mind instantly going blank upon hearing this.

She had already destroyed the database, so even the best computer technician could not recover the files.

Shangguan Tong’s hand trembled so hard that she could not hold the phone steady. Before long, something crossed her mind. Hope promptly emerged in her eyes. “Oh yes. You might be able to use Yun’s blood. Their blood might just match.”

As she spoke quickly, she instinctively uttered the name she had not uttered in years.

Huo Yao raised her brow on hearing this. “Yun? What do you mean…”

“Just focus on saving your patient.” Shangguan Tong interrupted Huo Yao mid-way.

Huo Yao did not continue probing her at this point in time. “Fine.”

“If their blood doesn’t match, there’s a way to overcome this problem. This method requires prior testing and I roughly know the steps. If you want to try this method, it really comes down to your luck.”

Shangguan Tong inhaled deeply as if she were consoling herself. She smiled sadly and said, “You might not need to get to the second method.”

Huo Yao gathered her thoughts and asked. “Does this mean if the blood doesn’t match, we can still use the second method and use someone else’s blood?”
