Chapter 805: Chapter 548: The Results of the Experiment_2 Chapter 805 -548: The Results of the Experiment_2 There is nothing wrong with that, after all, these older billionaires inherently suffer from various diseases, they have their own professional medical teams, but when life comes to an end, no one can escape the natural law of birth, aging, sickness, and death.
The older the billionaire, the more they are aware that their days are numbered.
If the Longevity Pill #1 were to be successful, it might save their lives one day when they fall ill.
Similarly, if the pill鈥檚 development fails, it is as if they have lost a chance at life.
Naturally, under such circumstances, the older billionaires become more anxious, whereas wealthy individuals like Ren Wenxuan, who are in their prime years, appear much more composed.
At the very front of the crowd, Chu Mo鈥檚 eyes were fixed intently on the laboratory across from him.
As the major behind-the-scenes owner of the entire Longevity Club, he had invested a tremendous amount of resources into this small Longevity Pill, having spent a fortune just to establish the Longevity Club, and then personally sought out the heir of the Ross family to invite top scientists, paying a significant price in the process.
...
Although the Longevity Club was managed by Yang Xuan, Zhang Dongdong, and Liang Bing, Chu Mo, as the hidden major owner, had always been closely monitoring its progress.
He even regarded the club as his most important asset to manage.
Among Chu Mo鈥檚 numerous businesses, only the Longevity Club was specially entrusted to three managers to handle, reflecting his high regard for the club.
After more than a year of effort, the time had come for the club to yield results.
If today鈥檚 experiment failed, it would mean starting from scratch, and it would also signify an impending period of latency similar to the early days for the Longevity Club.
Not to mention attracting new members, the club might even face criticism and skepticism, which would be a severe blow to a club that had only been established for a year.
Although Chu Mo appeared expressionless, his heart was pounding with tension, his eyes unblinkingly watching the busy crowd in the opposing laboratory.
潙滒潣凁潣潙?co
Unexpectedly, Liu Peng, the Family Head of the Zhongzhou Liu family, who had originally come with a casual attitude, now also slightly tensed his expression.
Nobody knew that although Liu Peng was one of the eight great families and Chu Mo鈥檚 sworn enemy, he had long been plagued by illness.
Despite having the best personal doctor at his service, his health had not improved.
The fact that Liu Peng was troubled by illness was why he had agreed to assist Chu Mo in inviting Britain鈥檚 top scientists half a year ago when Chu Mo visited Zhongzhou to participate in an underground fistfighting championship.
Although they did not succeed in the end, due to the other party, the fact was Liu Peng had indeed tried his best.
If one were to consider the interests of the eight great families, Liu Peng, as the head of one of these families, would not wish for Chu Mo鈥檚 success.
After all, if the Longevity Club managed to make a breakthrough, it would mean that the oppression from the great families would become completely ineffective.
At that point, thinking about their own lifespans, the top bosses would certainly not hesitate to join the club.
In such a case, the Longevity Club would significantly increase in power, making the suppression from the eight great families meaningless.
However, on the other hand, with Liu Peng鈥檚 ailing health, he always worried that he might one day succumb to his illness.
As the head of the Zhongzhou Liu family, he had not yet fully enjoyed his wealth and status and wanted to live a few more years.
So, from his own personal standpoint, he very much hoped that Chu Mo鈥檚 research would succeed.
In that way, when the day came that he fell gravely ill, he too could extend his life like the old man on the hospital bed, through rescue.
At this moment, Liu Peng watched the bustling crowd in the experimental hall with a complex expression, feeling a sense of loss.
Minutes ticked by, and the dozen or so elite scientists in the hall made their final efforts, but no matter what they tried, the elderly patient on the hospital bed did not regain a heartbeat.
At that moment, even the efforts of over a hundred elite scientists could not wrest life from the grip of death.
A few minutes later, the white-haired old leader waved his hand, signaling all the bustling top scientists to halt their activity, and then all of them slowly bowed their heads.
It was clear to everyone without asking: The experiment had failed.
In the observation hall, Li Chun slowly collapsed to the ground.
She understood all too well what had happened in the laboratory; with the primary physician giving up, it also meant that her grandfather had passed away.
At this moment, Situ Lichun was in tears like rain, her entire being shaking with convulsive sobs, looking utterly heartbroken.
However, right now, no one in the hall cared about her.
To the average person, she might have been a highly esteemed superstar, but in the vast observation hall, where tycoons worth hundreds of billions were gathered, no one considered a mere star worthy of attention.
A series of hushed whispers filled the hall as some of the wealthy elites also gathered together to engage in their own discussions.
At this time, Yang Xuan, the overall person in charge of the club, gently approached Chu Mo and whispered in his ear:
鈥淢r.
Chu, the target for this time鈥檚 experiment was perhaps too difficult.
The old Situ was already at the end of his tether; even a deity would struggle to save him.
We can let these tycoons stay another night, then select a new experimental target.
This time, we can choose someone whose health isn鈥檛 in such a dire state.
I believe with the effectiveness of our product, we will surely achieve a result.鈥
Yang Xuan obviously had not completely given up on the Number One Longevity Pill.
This tiny pill encapsulated so much of her efforts.
For a year, three hundred and sixty days, she had almost lived at the club, never straying far to guard it.
If anyone cared the most about the Number One Longevity Pill, it might not be Chu Mo, but the Yang Xuan standing before him.
Chu Mo鈥檚 originally somewhat perplexed gaze gradually regained focus.
At this moment, he understood that letting old Situ be the experimental target was indeed too reckless.
Old Situ was already at the end of his rope; no deity could save him.
And the Number One Longevity Pill was a flawed product with limited effects.
Giving the pill to old Situ was like challenging a hellish difficulty level in a novice village.
Perhaps he should have listened to Yang Xuan from the start and chosen someone whose health wasn鈥檛 so deteriorated for the experiment.
Chu Mo took a deep breath at this moment.
He glanced sideways at the stunning woman beside him, noticing that Yang Xuan, compared to when they shared a flat a year ago, appeared somewhat more haggard.
If this experiment were to fail, she too would likely take a heavy hit.
Chu Mo didn鈥檛 want to give up either.
He turned his gaze to Yang Xuan and then slowly nodded:
鈥淟et鈥檚 do as you suggested!鈥
Upon hearing his words, Yang Xuan nodded seriously and then the head of the Longevity Club slowly walked to stand before everyone.
She gestured with her hand, and as everyone鈥檚 attention focused on her, the elegantly smiling woman began to speak:
鈥淟adies and gentlemen, you have traveled from far and wide, and I鈥檓 sure you鈥檙e weary from your journeys.
It is now dinner time, and we have already asked Tianxiang Garden鈥檚 Michelin five-star chef to personally cook a delicious meal for you.
In addition, our club has prepared some small gifts for everyone.
There will also be a performance tonight, so you can rest at the club for the night.
Tomorrow, the Longevity Club will arrange a new project.鈥
All the top tycoons present, even if disinterested, did not dare to truly offend Mr.
Chu of Britain.
The Longevity Club was just one of Mr.
Chu鈥檚 many assets, and this young Mr.
Chu was someone who had stood against the eight great families.
Even if the Longevity Club showed no results, absolutely no one underestimated the opposition.
With Yang Xuan leading the way, the group of top tycoons slowly made their way toward the outer corridor.
Just as Chu Mo was about to step away, his gaze shifted across the room, and he suddenly noticed, in the laboratory, a little girl in a white pleated skirt standing in front of old Situ, who was no longer breathing.
That Great Grandmaster Qin Lan, with power at the mid-level Grandmaster stage, was now extending her tender little hand, gently massaging the position of the old man鈥檚 heart.
