NiV!
Upon hearing this term, Shen Jiao's pretty face turned pale as a sheet!
The virus was highly contagious and extremely difficult to heal, especially for noble breeds of horses—it was practically a disaster!
Even now, Shen Jiao dared not believe that her Little White had contracted the NiV.
"Mr. Soya, are you sure that Little White is infected with NiV?"
Soya, standing outside the stable, looked somewhat unsightly and replied,
"I can't be one hundred percent certain right now, but judging from its symptoms, body temperature, heartbeat, and wounds, it's very likely to be NiV! Moreover, I've heard that Singapore has already reported cases of NiV. Therefore, Miss Shen, to preempt any further trouble, you had better euthanize this horse and then burn the body."
Hearing these words, Shen Jiao's complexion instantly turned an iron blue:
"So, what you're saying is, Mr. Soya, you can't actually confirm whether this is really the NiV?"
Soya nodded, somewhat embarrassed:
"To make a final determination, top-of-the-line equipment is necessary! However, Miss Shen, there's no longer any need for this horse—it's beyond saving, regardless of whether it's NiV or not, so it's best to handle it as if it were an NiV infection!"
Hearing Soya's words, the other veterinarians and Luo Yuan also nodded grimly.
Luo Yuan advised Shen Jiao right away,
"Jiao, Little White is beyond saving. You should listen to Mr. Soya, euthanize it, and then burn it! Otherwise, if it really is NiV, the entire stable could be in trouble!"
And the others, who were apparently familiar with Shen Jiao, all spoke with faces full of panic:
"Luo Yuan is right, NiV can be transmitted to humans, and if we get infected too, the problem would be huge!"
"Shen Jiao, for everyone's safety and for the safety of their beloved horses, you should hurry up and deal with Little White!"
"Yes! If worse comes to worst, we'll all chip in to help you buy another Arab horse! We'll get you one even more beautiful than Little White!"
...
The crowd was all clamoring, and even the surrounding veterinarians and the person in charge of the stable kept urging, obviously fearing the NiV might spread to other horses, or even to people!
Seeing this, tears streamed down Shen Jiao's face. She turned to look at Little White, her face filled with reluctance.
Little White, highly spiritual, seemed to understand its predicament, constantly nuzzling and whinnying at Shen Jiao, its expression full of unwillingness to let go.
Even at the corner of Little White's eyes, teardrops fell, making for an extraordinarily peculiar sight.
But at this moment, no one cared about Little White's peculiar behavior; they were more concerned about their own safety. Luo Yuan then turned to the veterinarians and other stable personnel and ordered,
"You all quickly go get the staff to come in, take Little White out to be euthanized, and then burn it!"
After speaking, Luo Yuan turned his gaze to Ye Feng, who was still beside Shen Jiao:
"And you, hurry up and get Miss Shen out of here! If Miss Shen becomes infected with NiV, your stable is going to suffer the consequences too!"
Luo Yuan had always mistaken Ye Feng for one of the stable's staff, seeing that he was still inside the stable with Shen Jiao, he began to give orders.
However, after Luo Yuan had given his instructions, he noticed that Ye Feng continued to observe Little White, completely ignoring what he had said, and this immediately incensed him:
"Hey! Are you deaf? I'm talking to you! What kind of idiot is this? You still want to work at the stable or not? Hurry up and get Miss Shen out!!!"
Luo Yuan dared not enter the stable again and could only rely on Ye Feng to bring out Shen Jiao. Yet, even after shouting twice, Ye Feng paid him no attention at all, which made him fly into a rage!
Not only him, but even the man and two women with Luo Yuan began to look ugly after seeing a staff member not taking Luo Yuan seriously, hurling insults at Ye Feng:
"What's wrong with you? Are you stupid? Hurry up, didn't you hear Young Master Luo's orders?"
"Damn it, where did this idiot come from? The racetrack has to kick him out; he actually dares to not take us seriously!"
"Exactly! A mere staffer really has the gall!"
...
These people were constantly shouting while the person who had brought Ye Feng and Shen Jiao over had long since gone out to call someone. The veterinarians on-site didn't even know that Ye Feng had been brought by Shen Jiao; they thought he was a new colleague and looked at Ye Feng with sympathy, but no one stopped the yelling!
Ye Feng's frown deepened and, turning his gaze to Luo Yuan and the others, he said:
"Shut up!!!"
Hmm?
Ye Feng's shout completely stunned Luo Yuan and his companions; they couldn't believe that they were being scolded by a racetrack staff member!
Just as they were about to curse back, Ye Feng's gaze shifted to Shen Jiao:
"Don't be sad! Xiao Bai isn't infected with the Nipah virus!"
What?
Ye Feng's words left everyone in shock, and an overwhelmed Shen Jiao immediately perked up, looking at Ye Feng with full of hope:
"Ye Feng, are... are you telling the truth?"
"That's right! It's definitely not the Nipah virus, and Xiao Bai can still be saved!"
Ye Feng nodded and responded right away!
His words made Luo Yuan and the others a bit dumbfounded. Listening to their conversation, they realized that this guy actually knew Shen Jiao!
"Shen Jiao! Who is he?" Luo Yuan's eyebrows were tightly knitted, clearly quite upset by Ye Feng's previous scolding.
Shen Jiao glanced at Luo Yuan indifferently: "He's my friend, not a staff member of the racetrack!"
After saying this, Shen Jiao no longer paid any attention to Luo Yuan, but looked straight at Ye Feng with a hopeful gaze:
"Ye Feng, can you tell what exactly is wrong with Xiao Bai?"
Shen Jiao was full of surprise and joy, originally thinking that her Xiao Bai was doomed, even destined to be incinerated, but Ye Feng's words gave her a glimmer of hope!
Before Ye Feng could respond, Luo Yuan and the others spoke up again:
"Shen Jiao, how can you believe this guy? He's just comforting you. Look at how young he is; what does he know!"
"Yeah, Shen Jiao, don't listen to his nonsense! Even Mr. Soya said that Xiao Bai has the Nipah virus, does this guy think he's a veterinarian too? Even if he is, there's no way he's better than Mr. Soya!"
"This guy is up to no good; it's clearly the Nipah virus, yet he dares to spout nonsense, he's endangering us and our beloved horses!"
...
These people simply didn't believe what Ye Feng said. In their eyes, Ye Feng was young, of unknown origins; he couldn't possibly carry more weight than Mr. Soya!
And Soya himself looked upset. Indeed, as a top-notch veterinarian, now he was being questioned and negated by a young man, which was absolutely an insult to him:
"Young man, you need to take responsibility for what you say! If because of your words the Nipah virus spreads, can you bear that responsibility!!!"
