After the tests were completed, Ye Hai and his companion left the Mutant Academy and returned home.
When Gwen got home, it was already late. Her mother stood in the living room, looking at her daughter with a smile, and said, "Gwen, you've been coming home late a lot lately. Are you dating someone? Do you have a boyfriend?"
Gwen was taken aback for a moment and then a bit embarrassed replied, "Yes, Mom!"
"How long have you been together?" her mother asked, intrigued.
Gwen thought for a moment and said, "Oh, about a month now."
"A month!" Her mother was surprised. She didn't expect her daughter had been dating for a month, especially since it was her first love, and yet she knew nothing about it. Unable to contain herself, she asked, "So… have you two… done that?"
"That?" Gwen blushed immediately, recalling her innocence. She should still be considered a novice, right? She laughed and said, "Mom, I'm still a novice!"
Her mother sighed in relief and said with satisfaction, "It seems you've met a gentleman. Gwen, I have a suggestion. Why not bring your gentleman home for dinner someday? Your father and I would love to meet him."
"Sure, no problem." Gwen felt very confident about her boyfriend and readily agreed.
…
Three days later, at Ye Hai's studio.
"Ding! Quality control system activated… Host has researched the genetic gene potion infused with Norman Osborn's genes, achieving an integration degree of 87%. It is usable!"
Ye Hai looked at the green potion before him, a result of three days of research. Over the past three days, he had been cautiously studying at the Osborn Industrial Building, as there was already comprehensive data on Norman's genes available. This saved Ye Hai a lot of time on testing and organizing; he only needed to utilize gene fusion technology to develop the potion. Therefore, after just three days, he obtained the potion.
87%? That's already sufficient for use. As long as it can cure Norman Osborn's disease, Ye Hai had no interest in further perfecting the potion.
Ye Hai opened Norman's phone, and once connected, he said in a serious tone, "Dr. Ye, what can I do for you?"
His voice sounded weak, indicating that the illness was taking a severe toll on his health.
Ye Hai smiled and said, "Mr. Osborn, I have good news for you. I have successfully developed the gene potion for your hereditary illness."
There was a noticeable pause on the other end as Norman breathed heavily before weakly saying, "Really? That was quick. Didn't you say it would take a month?"
His tone was tinged with disbelief. This hereditary illness had plagued his family for many years, and now a simple solution seemed too good to be true for him to accept.
Ye Hai scoffed, "It seems your paranoia is quite strong. The central computer at Osborn has already simulated the tests, confirming that your hereditary illness is completely solvable. If you still don't believe that, then there's nothing I can do. You'll just have to wait for your end."
"Alright, Dr. Ye, I'll believe you," Norman said, a hint of resignation in his voice.
He was out of options, as the scientists he relied on had proven useless; they still couldn't figure out the lizard serum. Meanwhile, this young man seemed to effortlessly solve every scientific puzzle presented to him.
"Dr. Ye, my butler will come to pick you up. Please take good care of your potion," Norman instructed.
"Got it," Ye Hai replied, reminding him, "Make sure to prepare your contract and lawyer as well!"
Norman chuckled, "Of course! If your potion works, I will be more than willing to pay the price!"
After hanging up the phone, Ye Hai waited for a while until Norman's car arrived at the bottom of the Osborn building.
It was a luxurious, elongated sedan. As Ye Hai approached, a young man about seventeen or eighteen stepped out. He had brown hair, was quite handsome, and had a friendly smile that implied a good-natured attitude.
Seeing Ye Hai, the young man said, "Dr. Ye, hello! I'm Harry Osborn, Norman Osborn's son."
"Hello, young boss." Ye Hai chuckled and casually patted him on the shoulder, saying, "Today marks a great day for the Osborn family, young man. Your fate will start to change from today onwards."
Harry understood what he meant and nodded with a smile, saying, "Dr. Ye, I hope your potion really works for us."
"Of course it will!" Ye Hai replied confidently.
As Ye Hai settled into the back of the car, it started up and quickly drove away.
"I heard from Peter that Gwen is now dating you, Dr. Ye?" Harry remarked casually, as if it were an offhand comment.
Ye Hai smiled and said, "Yes, we share common interests, so we make a perfect match. So,"
He patted Harry's shoulder again and said, "You might want to forget about any unrealistic thoughts. Gwen is not going to fall for you."
Harry protested, "Really? I think with my family background and my talents, I can offer Gwen a better life."
"Talent?" Ye Hai laughed heartily and disdainfully replied, "How much of a scientist's mind do you possess? You can't even compare to your father, let alone me. And money? Do you really think someone like me would be lacking in that area?"
"You…" Getting publicly humiliated like this, Harry couldn't bear it despite his good upbringing and retorted furiously, "I think you're just an arrogant braggart. I can't believe Gwen would even look at someone like you…"
Ye Hai lifted the box in his hand, which contained the gene potion, and said, "Just based on my ability to cure your family's hereditary illness, I am leagues better than you, kid!"
"Who knows if it will even work," Harry scoffed.
"You don't believe me?" Ye Hai provoked him. "How about we make a bet?"
Harry, angered by Ye Hai's arrogance, shot back, "What kind of bet?"
"If I cure your family's hereditary illness, you will have to become my henchman," Ye Hai suggested with a grin.
"And if you fail?" Harry stared intently at Ye Hai. "You'd have to leave Gwen. How about that?"
"Sure thing!" Ye Hai laughed heartily. "Get ready to be my henchman!"
