Chapter 1146

"The country hopes to raise a few more mermaids, in case something happens to Xia Yanyan, we could have other mermaids to step in, preventing such national treasures from going extinct. Unfortunately, despite meticulous care, the result was early death, which is truly heartbreaking. As for the cause of early death, many scientists researched their remains for several years and concluded that they all carried a genetic disease unique to mermaids."

"This disease is not inherited by every mermaid. Fortunately, neither you nor Xia Yanyan inherited it. If that child is your own, it’s clear that there was a skip in generations in the genetic transmission."

Ye Xingguang’s mind went blank, the world spinning around her. She grabbed the armrest of the sofa to steady herself.

"Then... what should we do?"

Her little Huahua is so adorable, how could she not live past the age of seven?

Mr. Xu said, "Don’t panic, Miss Ye. Although two girls have unfortunately passed early because of this, that was when we had absolutely no research into this mermaid genetic disease. However, over the years, many doctors have dedicated significant effort to this research. Now, there might be a way. That’s why I say it’s not that it’s impossible to cure, but it’s not guaranteed yet. That girl is lucky."

Ye Xingguang took a deep breath, "Mr. Xu, next time, can you tell me the outcome before the process? My heart can only take so much. You’re scaring me to death. As long as there’s a cure, I’m willing to pay any price. Please tell me how to treat it."

Mr. Xu said, "I personally don’t have a way, as my research in this area is not as deep as another medical expert’s. I’ll give you a name, and you can find him. He is the expert with the deepest research into this genetic disease."

"Who?"

"Gu Zuoxing."

Mr. Xu said, "Gu Zuoxing was just a teenager back then, interested in mermaids, so he followed Wang Lao to research. Wang Lao was the foremost medical expert in mermaid genetic diseases. However, after Wang Lao passed away, Gu Zuoxing never gave up on the research into mermaid genetic diseases. Now, if we talk about an expert in this field, it’s hard to find a second apart from Gu Zuoxing."

...

Ye’s Family Manor, in the living room.

When asked by Ye Xingguang who "Gu Zuoxing" was, Song Chuanqi thought for a long time: "I think I have heard of this name, regarding medical experts. Dad doesn’t know much; maybe you should call Li Yu or Bo Jingyu."

"Hmm, yeah."

Ye Xingguang called Li Yu, but unfortunately, after several attempts, no one answered. Who knows where Brother Yu is off having fun?

Ye Xingguang then called Bo Jingyu, the man she once patronized. noveldrama

Bo Jingyu said over the phone: "Gu Zuoxing? That business mogul from City S?"

"Ah? A business mogul, shouldn’t he be a doctor?"

Bo Jingyu said, "He’s a medical school graduate, but he went into business after graduation. He’s a renowned business mogul. If you want to contact him, ask your man Ye Junqing. He certainly would have an easier time socializing with Gu Zuoxing since they’re in the same industry field."

"Oh, thank you."

After hanging up the phone, Ye Xingguang was about to call Ye Junqing when she saw Tang Zhou and Leng Chenmo coming in with fish they had caught. Ye Xingguang held back the call and asked the entering Leng Chenmo about Gu Zuoxing. Her family’s major connection with business moguls certainly means her elder brother knows him too.
