Chapter 1022: Chapter 685 The Woman Who Caused Great Trouble (12)

Not far away, colleagues who were observing the situation glanced at the woman, who was Jian Yan, and then lowered their heads to continue their work; they barely had time to breathe, let alone indulge the caprices of this spoiled lady. Jian Yan was left stomping her feet in anger, but she was helpless to do anything.

The things the man had mentioned, she had heard her grandpa mention them when she came.

"Don’t provoke Mu Lin, because you are not her match right now!"

Mu Lin, Mu Lin, it was as if these people only had eyes for Mu Lin! How was she, Jian Yan, any inferior to her! From a young age, she had always been at the top, number one was something she felt she could simply want and get, yet now, in this place, she was actually despised and belittled by others.

Fine, if they think she’s inferior, if they think she doesn’t have the ability to compare with Mu Lin, then she would show them her capability; then they would see what they had to say.

She was determined to develop the antidote before that woman, and then she would see what they could say; indeed, she was a capricious lady.

She glared at Mu Lin’s retreating figure and then turned around, not to help, but to tinker on her own, and of course, the people around her paid her no heed; as long as she didn’t come over to cause trouble, they were quite content.

At that time, no one knew that their indulgence would lead to trouble, and the trouble this woman caused was anything but small.

If they had known earlier, they would have locked this woman up to prevent her from causing madness outside.

...

Mu Lin walked back to where the Gong Family elders were, who were still fiddling with medicinal materials. Seeing Mu Lin, they looked up at her with a measure of surprise.

"Back so soon?" Weren’t you going to check on their progress?"

Mu Lin said with a light smile, "Ran into a boring person."

Everyone understood, "You’re talking about that woman just now, aren’t you?" They said with certainty, a touch of teasing in their eyes.

They had just seen the three of them talking, and although they couldn’t hear or see Mu Lin’s expression, they were quite close to each other. They had seen the expressions of both the man and the woman, clear as day.

Most importantly, in the eyes of those present, Mu Lin was someone who naturally incited jealousy, so it was normal for other women to resent her.

Mu Lin expressed innocence, speechlessness, and boredom.

Really, they were like a bunch of kids, getting so excited about such drama.

Soon after, the incident was cast aside by Mu Lin; if she were to take such things to heart, what a narrow-minded person she would be, and she would be overwhelmed with busyness.

And then, another three days passed, but this time Mu Lin did not come out by herself, she was disturbed by a commotion.

"Doctor Mu, Doctor Mu, something’s happened..." With courage, Xiu Fan knocked loudly on Mu Lin’s door, expecting it to take a long while for her to come out, but to his surprise, the door opened quickly, making him recoil in fear of bumping into Mu Lin.

"What is it?" Interrupted, Mu Lin didn’t look pleased, her eyebrows knitted tightly and her eyes cold.

He paused instinctively, but given the urgency of the matter, he quickly came to his senses and blurted out, "There’s been a mishap in the research group; a woman injected a patient with her self-developed, untested substance, and now this patient is causing chaos throughout the Research Institute. No one can stop him."

It would be more accurate to say that no one dared to try to stop him for fear of getting infected.

No sooner had he finished speaking than Mu Lin heard the growling getting closer, along with screams and various other chaotic noises.

"Grandpa." Mu Lin immediately ran outside swiftly.

She really wanted to yell, "Are you insane?"

That woman must have a screw loose!

When Mu Lin got outside, she saw a crowd being chased by a man whose body was rotting in places; thankfully, the Gong family members practiced martial arts; although Grandpa Gong was quite old, he was still spry.

"Ah..." Nevertheless, the others couldn’t withstand such an onslaught, and there was a close call with someone nearly being caught.

Mu Lin was quick and agile. She vaulted off the wall next to the man and kicked the virus-infected man to the side before the latter could injure anyone; the infected man fell to the ground instantly.

"What on earth are you doing?" Mu Lin yelled coldly, and the people around her eyed the crazed man warily, unsure of what to say, their gazes turning to the stunned Jian Yan.
