You went on a blind date and presented an A-level wanted criminal as a meeting gift?

Inside the ultimate shelter, all was deathly silent.

A thick atmosphere of fear permeated the air.

The viper lay limp on the cold floor, trembling like a leaf. Watching the man approach her step by step like a demon, she didn't even have the strength to scream. Her crotch was wet and hot, emitting a foul stench.

This core executive of the "Longevity Club" was utterly terrified in the face of absolute, overwhelming power.

However, Lin Chen's gaze did not linger on her.

He merely glanced at her briefly before walking past her and heading straight to the very center of the shelter.

There, in a large, genuine leather boss's chair, a person sat with their back to the door.

"Squeak—"

The boss's chair slowly turned around.

Sitting in the chair was an elderly man with a withered face, a tall and thin figure, and a ventilator in his nose.

He wore a spotless white lab coat, his hair was neatly combed, and although his face was pale and he looked sickly, his eyes, hidden behind his reading glasses, were unusually bright, even with a sharp glint in them.

When Lin Chen saw that face clearly, even with his composure, his eyes narrowed slightly.

He recognized that face all too well!

No, it should be said that there are probably very few people in the entire China who are not familiar with this face!

Qi Bo'an, Elder Qi!

A towering figure in Chinese medicine!

Lifetime Academician of the National Academy of Sciences!

The various effective drugs he led the research and development of have saved millions of lives!

He frequently appeared on national television's health lecture program, and his amiable and knowledgeable image earned him the respect and love of people across the country!

He is also the senior brother of Chen Guodong!

Who would have thought that this medical giant, shrouded in countless accolades and hailed as a "peerless national hero," would actually be the mastermind behind this heinous and ruthless "longevity club"?!

The contrast is just too great!

It's so big it's absurd!

"Are you surprised, Consultant Lin?"

Old Qi slowly removed the cumbersome ventilator from his nose, looked at Lin Chen, and a calm, even appreciative, smile appeared on his wrinkled face.

His voice was hoarse, like two pieces of sandpaper rubbing together, full of the marks of time.

"I must say, as expected of a young man who can leave even a venomous snake helpless, your performance was truly remarkable."

Lin Chen didn't speak, but just looked at him quietly, his eyes as deep as the sea.

He could smell a strong, deathly odor emanating from Old Qi.

The patient has advanced liver cancer, which has spread throughout the body.

Judging from Lin Chen's [God-level Biology Mastery], even with the world's best medical technology, he only has less than three months left to live.

"I have dedicated my life to this country and to the medical community."

Old Qi seemed unconcerned by Lin Chen's silence. He continued speaking slowly in a calm tone, as if reminiscing about the past.

"I have personally snatched thousands of lives back from the clutches of death."

"The drugs I developed have saved countless families from being torn apart."

"They called me a 'grandmaster,' a 'national hero,' and elevated me to a divine status."

At this point, his calm tone suddenly became agitated, and a crazy and obsessive light burst forth in his cloudy eyes!

"But! Why?!"

He slammed his hand on the armrest of his wheelchair and growled hoarsely:

"Why should I be able to save the world but not myself?! Why should I, like an old dog, watch my body rot and decay day by day, finally dying in agony on my sickbed?!"

"Why can't I enjoy the elixir of immortality that I researched?!"

"I'm not reconciled!!"

His chest heaved violently, and he coughed violently from excitement, a sickly flush rising on his pale face.

His withered, claw-like fingers pressed firmly, firmly, onto an inconspicuous red button on the armrest of his wheelchair!
