Chapter 761 Testing the Medicine
Bailey held his head and fiercely kissed his handsome face several times.
“Alright, since you''re being so honest, I''ll help clear up your confusion. This is a life-extending medicine,
but to be honest, I don''t quite understand the specific principles behind it either. That old man had
spent most of his life researching and finally came up with this invention, which didn''t seem so easy to
understand. I soaked a rabbit, drained of all its blood, in the potion. Despite having not a single drop of
blood left in its body, the rabbit clung to life and didn''t die. So, I guess this medicinal herb can prolong
life.”
Then continued, “Probably, Dr. White''s final thoughts were the same as mine - to detoxify by
exchanging blood. That''s why he researched and developed this herb, so that people wouldn''t die
immediately after losing blood.”
The smile on Artemis'' face gradually grew stronger. As long as there was a chance to survive and a
possibility of living, he was willing to give it a try.
“Alright, I''ll let you draw my blood tonight. Let''s give this method a try and see if it works.” Bailey red
at him.
“Do you think this is a game? Just saying you want to try it out? I''ve only tested it on rabbits, not on
humans. So, I''m not quite sure. If all the blood in your body is drained, this medicine would be useless
for you. Wouldn''t that mean certain death for you?”
Artemis'' thoughts stirred, and he immediately became alert.
Could it be that this woman is trying to risk her life? If that''s the case, I might as well bear the suffering
myself.
After all, if she died, he would immediately follow her in death. If she didn''t die, and he tested the
medicine instead, he wouldn''t die either. So, he felt there was absolutely no need for her to suffer.
“Then you should try it on a few more animals and see if they alle back to life. If they do, there''s no
need for us to hesitate. After all, we''re facing death either way, and it would be a blessing if we could
survive.”
Bailey nodded with a smile, but she had other ns in her mind. The anatomical structure of animals
was different from that of humans. Just because an experiment was sessful on animals, it didn''t
necessarily mean it would be sessful on humans.
So, they still had to use living people for experiments. She couldn''t bring herself to sacrifice others for
her own benefit, nor could she let Artemis take the risk. She had no choice but to try it herself.
“It''s gettingte. Let''s go back and rest for now. We''ll talk about it tomorrow.”
Artemis let out a silent sigh. It seemed his guess was right; this woman truly intended to try the
medicine herself. How could he bear to see her suffer like this? After leaving theboratory, the two of
them walked along the corridor toward the Luther residence.
As they were about to reach the Luther residence, Artemis suddenly stopped in his tracks, turned his
head to look at her, and leisurely said, “Bailey, if you have to personally handle things like testing
medicine, doesn''t that make me somewhat useless?”
The smile on Bailey''s face stiffened, realizing that he had figured out her thoughts. The next moment,
she hurriedly reached into her pocket, attempting to use a stupefying drug to knock him out.
Artemis was already prepared, so how could he let her seed? In a sh, he moved closer to her,
grabbing her arm with one hand and cing the other on the back of her head. Bailey was subdued by
him, realizing that he wanted to knock her out.
She quickly spoke up, “Artemis, don''t hit me. I was wrong. I really, really know I was wrong. Let me

bleed you, and then observe your condition. If it were someone else, I wouldn''t feel at ease.”
Artemis shook his head, leaned down to kiss her forehead, and said softly, “This process is too cruel for
you. It''s better not to watch. Tarragon has so many doctors. They will take good care of me. Go and
have a good sleep, and when you wake up, everything will be fallen into ce.”
Bailey''s face suddenly darkened, and her smilepletely disappeared.
She red at him fiercely, gritting her teeth and said, “I haven''t gotten over you feeding me memory
loss pillst time. If you dare to knock me out, I''ll never forgive you in this lifetime.”
Artemis smiled, his gentle gaze sweeping across her pretty face.
“Bailey, no matter the oue, I''ll always be by your side. You don''t need to worry; I won''t forcefully
keep you in this world anymore. If I leave, I''ll be waiting for you on the road to heaven.”
Tears rolled down Bailey''s cheeks as she cried and shouted, “Artemis, don''t do this, please don''t. Let
me face it with you, okay? Can we do that?”
Artemis smiled faintly. A wave of pain spread from the back of her neck, her vision gradually blurred,
and in the moment before her consciousnesspletely vanished, she mustered all her strength and
roared, “Artemis, you better live well for me!”
As thest syble fell, she slowly closed her eyes.
Fortunately, this guy didn''t have the audacity to consider erasing her memory again, otherwise she
would have been absolutely disgusted. Artemis looked at the woman who had fainted in his arms, the
smile on the corner of his lips deepening by a few degrees.
He attempted to lift her up horizontally, but unfortunately, his body was extremely weak. After trying
several times, he eventually gave up due to hisck of strength.
“I''ll do it.” Zeke''s voice came from behind. Artemis handed Bailey over to him.
Zeke frowned and asked, “What''s going on here? Why did you knock her out for no reason?”
Artemis nodded and recounted the events that had taken ce. After hearing this, Zeke''s anger
simmered.
“Testing medicine? This girl is really something. I''ve never seen anyone as lively as her. Artemis, you
better stay alive, or I''ll grind your bones to dust.”
After a moment of silence, Artemis said leisurely, “If I survive, we''ll start everything anew. But if I''m
unfortunate enough to die, please, Zeke, let her sleep forever. Don''t let her open her eyes again, I don''t
want her to face such pain. As for the Luther family, please take good care of them in the future. Simon
has great potential. With a little guidance, he should be able to shoulder the responsibility of the Luther
family. There are three more children, and although they have the care of their grandparents, uncles,
and aunts, they still need the love of their dear uncle. I hope you can pay more attention to them and
let...”
“That''s enough.”
Zeke turned his face slightly away and said with a tearful voice, “Live well, and I''ll acknowledge you as
my brother-inw in the future. But if you die, I will never admit that you are the son-inw of the
Shurmer family.”
Artemis lowered his head slightly, and after a long silence, he squeezed out a single word through
gritted teeth, “Fine.”
Early next morning, Bailey gradually regained consciousness from her stupor. Gazing at the crystal
chandelier above her head, she was momentarily lost in thought. The moment her consciousness
returned, she gentlyughed.
I had woken up. Does this mean that Artemis had made it through the night?
Because with that man''s temperament, he would never let her wake up alone to face the pain.
She guessed that he had instructed Zeke that if he couldn''t wake up, Zeke should use medicine to let
her sleep forever.

The door handle turned, and the door opened. Zeke walked in, carrying a tray.
“Bay, you''re awake.”
Bailey pulled back the covers, preparing to get out of bed, but suddenly her legs felt weak and
powerless, forcing her to fall toward the ground. Zeke quickly reached out to steady her.
“Be careful! You''re a grown-up, why are you still so restless?” Bailey grabbed his wrist and asked,
“Zeke, how is Artemis doing?”
