Chapter 1030: Chapter 689: A Temporary Return to Tranquility (16)

"Where is Xiaozhu?" Mu Lin looked at a boy responsible for taking notes and asked.

"Xiaozhu?" The boy looked around and said, "He must have run off to that independent research room you used to work in, Doctor Mu. He loves going there the most." Basically, every time someone is missing, that’s the place to look.

Mu Lin nodded and started walking towards the research room.

The boy smiled as he watched Mu Lin’s retreating figure.

In fact, it wasn’t just Xiaozhu who liked Mu Lin; everyone at the Research Institute did too. Of course, they had all heard about how Mu Lin had been nearly killed by Jian Xue a little over a week ago.

Such a wonderful person as the Divine Doctor Mu, Jian Xue was probably just jealous; moreover, they had heard that Jian Xue liked Mr. Jing and was probably extremely jealous of Divine Doctor Mu, so she deliberately harmed her.

Such rumors had actually started spreading within the Research Institute.

The truth was that this Jian Xue was quite detestable to everyone at the Research Institute, it was just a pity that her powerful family background meant no one dared to offend her.

In a way, Mu Lin’s incident had actually avenged everyone at the Institute.

Although Mu Lin hadn’t said a word about it, and strangely enough, by the time she thought to ask more about it, she found out that several elders had already taken care of the matter for her.

That was for the best.

However, the patriarch of the Jian Family never had the intention of bringing Jian Xue to apologize from the beginning to the end; but Mu Lin didn’t mind.

She even had to thank her, for without Jian Xue, she wouldn’t have remembered that formula.

Probably only Mu Lin would think this way.

...

Mu Lin had just arrived at the door of the research room when a little boy burst out, hugging her leg, "Sister Lin." He looked up at Mu Lin with a smile full of joy and eyes that held stars of admiration.

"Shouldn’t you be calling me ’Auntie’?" If we were to go by seniority, after all, she was a mother who had given birth.

"No way, auntie." Xiaozhu pouted his small mouth, "Sister Lin is the most beautiful woman I have ever seen, so how can she be an auntie; and besides, everyone said that it was you, Sister Lin, who saved my life."

Xiaozhu liked Mu Lin so much he couldn’t stand it; and he would rather die than call her ’Auntie,’ but for those younger than Mu Lin, he would eagerly call them ’Uncle’ and ’Auntie,’ much to everyone’s frustration.

Listening to his childlike chatter, Mu Lin laughed, "Come on, let Sister Lin check you out one more time. If there’s nothing wrong, you can go home with your grandpa." The old Mr. Li had been waiting at the place they had arranged for over half a month.

Fortunately, Mu Lin had arranged for the grandchild and grandfather to see each other, although alas, they were still separated by glass.

The people inside were basically all wearing protective clothing, so it was safe, of course, except for Mu Lin.

After last time’s incident, everyone knew Mu Lin had antibodies in her body, so she didn’t need to wear protective clothing when dealing with the patients.

Mu Lin reached out her hand and felt Xiaozhu’s pulse, then smiled. It seemed that with her blood as the medicine guide, all the functions in Xiaozhu’s body had recovered.

Mu Lin said, "Let’s go, Xiaozhu. One more medicinal bath, one last injection, and then you can go home."

However, when Mu Lin looked at him, she realized his face was not happy; he just looked at her, his little face wrinkling up, "Sister Lin, does it mean I won’t see you after I leave?" He didn’t want that.

Mu Lin shook her head and patted his head, "If you miss me, you can come to B City to find me. As long as I’m free, I’ll come see you. You’ve already memorized my phone number, haven’t you? And I have three other children; I’ll arrange for you to play together."

"It’s a deal," Xiaozhu stretched out his hand towards Mu Lin. She laughed, "Agreed."

"Cross my heart, hope to die, stick a needle in my eye if I lie. Liar is a puppy." They hooked fingers and then sealed the promise.

"Liar turns into a puppy dog." Mu Lin laughed helplessly.

Afterward, about an hour later, after the final bath and preparations, Mu Lin greeted the people of the Research Institute and took Xiaozhu away.

Mu Lin saw the two of them onto the plane, then after asking the flight attendant to take good care of them, she left. Xiaozhu stuck to the window watching Mu Lin’s retreating figure with sadness; and old Mr. Li looked on with a face full of gratitude, sighing in the end.

In truth, This Time, they had really been blessed by this young lady. Had it not been for her, his grandson might have been lost for good; yet, it seemed he hadn’t had the chance to properly thank her.
