Counterattack Strategies

“Then do you have any other ideas?” Bernice countered.
“At least I’ve proposed a solution and let our team try to solve the problem you caused.
What have you done?”

“If your solution is to let a twenty-something inexperienced person do something that we can’t do, then I can only say that it’s a stupid idea,” Kraut said.
“Since you have so much confidence in him, if he can’t extend Cliff’s life, then all responsibility will be borne by your team.
Are you willing?”

“You…” Bernice once again underestimated Kraut’s shamelessness.
He actually wanted to take the opportunity to make them bear all the responsibility.
Although he had confidence in Lu Jingqian, he didn’t have the ability to make such a promise.

“Go and call Xyler,” the Dean ordered.

“Dean…” Kraut thought of at least making Bernice make a promise.

“Shut up!” The Dean scolded.
“Today, I don’t want to hear anything from you about how to cure Cliff!”

For the past few days, Lu Jingqian had been concentrating on researching medicines to cure Reynolds’ leg.
It wasn’t supposed to be that difficult, but after the virus spread more severely in Reynolds’ body, Lu Jingqian had to spend more mental energy treating him in stages.

When he heard the Dean suddenly calling him over, although he didn’t know what was going on, since it was the Dean who wanted to see him, he had to stop his research, input the lab secrets that only he knew, and lock the door before going to see the Dean.

Seeing the corridor full of people and obviously divided into two opposing sides, Lu Jingqian knew that this was not something that could be resolved easily.

“Dean, did you call me?” Lu Jingqian walked up to the dean and asked.

“Bernice, explain the situation to him,” the Dean said to Bernice.

Bernice pulled Lu Jingqian to the side and quickly explained the current situation, Cliff’s condition and severity, and let him make his own choice.

“I’ll try,” Lu Jingqian said.
“I think I can save him.”

“You need to think it through.
If you succeed, you’ll once again make contributions to the Empire, and we’ll all benefit from it.
But if you fail, Kraut will definitely take the opportunity to push the blame onto us and use this incident to target you again,” Bernice said.

Lu Jingqian thought for a moment and said, “Then show me his medical records and the results of his overall physical condition up to now.”

Bernice nodded, took the computer from his assistant, opened up the data on Cliff’s treatment process, and handed the computer to him.

It took Lu Jingqian about ten minutes to quickly read through all the content before returning the computer to Bernice and saying, “Send me this information.
I can try.”

“How much chance of success rate do you have?” Bernice still had some concerns and even regretted bringing Lu Jingqian in to make the decision.
He actually had high hopes for Lu Jingqian and didn’t want him to be discouraged because of this incident.

“I have a success rate of over 60%, I think it’s worth a try,” Lu Jingqian said, which was already a conservative estimate.
If he used the system, he had at least a 90% chance of success.

But in Bernice’s mind, a success rate of over 60% far exceeded his expectations and was without doubt worth a try.

Bernice went to the Dean and said, “Xyler is willing to give it a try, I’ll personally lead the team in to assist him.”

“Hmph,” Kraut sneered, “You really have courage.
If you fail, it’s all your responsibility.
Remember that.”

Kraut deliberately wanted to put more pressure on Lu Jingqian, but the Dean glared at him and said, “Didn’t I tell you to shut up? I’m still here, when is it your turn to make decisions?!”

“Go prepare,” the Dean said to Bernice before patting Lu Jingqian on the shoulder and saying, “Don’t feel too much pressure, just do your best.”

“I will,” Lu Jingqian followed Bernice into the operating room.

Kraut not only showed disdain on the surface but also in his heart.
He thought that Bernice must have gone crazy to believe that a young man in his twenties, who was expelled from the Imperial Military Academy, could make Cliff recover.
He was ready to push all the blame onto them and was delighted to have found a scapegoat.

The Dean turned to see Kraut and his medical team standing there, waiting to watch the joke.
He scolded them, “What are you all doing standing here? Are you so idle that you’re just wasting time staring off into space? Do you want me to find something for you to do?!”

The people touched their noses, hung their heads, and left dejectedly.
But they still wanted to see Lu Jingqian’s embarrassment and were ready to use this incident to humiliate him.

Yalin glanced at the closed door of the operating room, and as he turned and left, his eyes were full of sneering malice.
He thought that Lu Jingqian was surely overestimating himself by daring to try, and he was simply ignorant of his own limitations.

Compared to Reynolds’ condition when he came down from the battlefield, Cliff’s situation was much better.
Reynolds had only one breath left at the time, and Lu Jingqian fought against death to save him from the grip of the Grim Reaper.
Although Cliff’s condition looked dangerously irreversible, Lu Jingqian believed he had enough time to save his life, turn his condition around, and even achieve a complete cure.

However, in the initial rescue and treatment, Lu Jingqian still needed to rely on the help of the system.
When he used the system, he needed to stay as focused as possible, otherwise, a sudden shutdown of the system would cause him to make mistakes.
Therefore, Lu Jingqian seriously instructed Bernice not to speak, not to ask questions, not to question anything, to do everything according to his requirements during the surgery, and to wait until after the surgery to discuss any issues.

Bernice agreed.
Since he had already chosen to trust Lu Jingqian, he decided to trust him completely.
