Chapter 724: Chapter 723: The Real Traitor of the Office Chapter 724: Chapter 723: The Real Traitor of the Office Wang Xintong swallowed hard, she was a doctor and had seen countless life-and-death separations.
But this was the first ti she felt the God of Death was so close and that she was so terrified she couldn’t even utter a complete sentence.
She didn’t understand how the cute girl who was like a little sister to her yesterday could beco so fierce all of a sudden this morning.
“Yingying, did Lu Mian offend you in so way?
You know the relationship I have with her, I will definitely help you,” Wang Xintong explained dryly.
Hua Ying revealed a mocking smile.
“Doctor Wang, aren’t you too stupid?
You still haven’t figured out the situation?”
Wang Xintong’s breathing stopped abruptly, and she looked at Lu Mian urgently, as if waiting for her explanation.
As Lu Mian held the brush, she calmly finished writing a large character, seemingly rather satisfied with her performance this ti.
She explained leisurely, “Hua Ying is a spy from the New World Laboratory.”
“…How could that be?” Wang Xintong stepped back two large strides.
The little sister she cared for and comforted every day was actually a spy?
And she, who had always been suspicious and targeting soone, was actually on the sa side as her.
But!
Wasn’t Hua Ying the daughter of Doctor Hua, a victim’s relative?
How did she beco a spy?
Their branch office and the international police surely couldn’t have failed to check Hua Ying’s identity thoroughly.
There couldn’t have been an impostor or forgery.
How could this be?!
Hua Ying watched Wang Xintong’s expressions turn into a myriad of colors and casually added,
“Doctor Wang, thank you for all the information you’ve provided during this ti.”
Wang Xintong: !!!
Her gaze exploded as she glanced at Lu Mian, a flicker of guilt flashing rapidly at the bottom of her eyes.
It was her, she herself had told Hua Ying a lot of useful information.
Speaking of which, she was the one who betrayed the branch office.
Not only did she not rit any accolades, but she also dragged them down.
But how could she have known Hua Ying was a spy?
This wasn’t her fault, it really couldn’t be her fault!
“Lu Mian, why are you still practicing your calligraphy!
Aren’t you very capable?
Hurry up and take down Hua Ying!” Wang Xintong was frantic, and here was Lu Mian, acting as if nothing was happening.
Normally so arrogant and overbearing, but at the critical mont, was she really being easily subdued?
Probably, in the eyes of everyone else, even in Hua Ying’s view, Lu Mian at this mont was like a fish on a chopping board, at the rcy of others.
But at this ti, all Lu Mian could think about was: the calligraphy practice this ti wasn’t too bad…
She put down the brush slowly and leisurely, gently blowing on the still wet ink, looking quite satisfied.
But if one observed closely, they would notice her fingers trembling slightly.
She actually didn’t have much strength left.
Wang Xintong was almost infuriated to death by Lu Mian.
“Lu Mian!
You really are a letdown at the crucial mont!” She was truly scared, afraid that she would be implicated by Lu Mian, afraid that Hua Ying would deal with her silently and without notice.
She was utterly regretful, really shouldn’t have co to find Lu Mian.
Hua Ying didn’t miss the struggle in Wang Xintong’s eyes.
Human nature has always been like this.
In normal tis, everyone acts so properly, but at the critical mont, one truly sees whether the person is a friend or a foe.
In this world, except for the teacher she looked up to, no one was trustworthy.
“Sister Mianmian, didn’t you say you had soone who loved you?” Hua Ying’s tone was calm, “Then let show you how others treat you.”
Lu Mian thodically tidied up the desk.
Hua Ying then turned to Wang Xintong, “Doctor Wang, I’ll give you a chance to live.
As long as you act as if you have seen nothing, I will let you go.
Otherwise, I’ll have to ask you to remain silent forever.”
Wang Xintong shuddered.
So, to live, she could only choose to turn a blind eye.
If she called for help, she might not even make it out of the door before she was done for.
Was there even a choice to make?
Wang Xintong imdiately nodded her head, even raising three fingers solemnly, “I won’t tell anyone, I didn’t see anything today!”
Hua Ying was quite satisfied.
Lu Mian’s eyelashes fluttered lightly, as expected.
“You may leave,” Hua Ying actually didn’t have any extra energy to deal with Wang Xintong.
Trapping just a Lu Mian was already difficult enough; she could not afford any slip-ups.
One last ti, Wang Xintong looked deeply at the trapped Lu Mian, whose fate—alive or dead—no one could predict.
She didn’t even want to know why Hua Ying had targeted Lu Mian.
Grinding her molars, she steeled her heart.
“Lu Mian, don’t bla .
Even your parents abandoned you, what I’m doing is only reasonable.”
“Hehehe…” Hua Ying’s giggles rose, “Sister Mianmian, look, not one of them is reliable.
Only the laboratory is your ho!”
Wang Xintong couldn’t make sense of their conversation.
Hua Ying teased with a blink, naively asking, “Doctor Wang, do you know how I trapped Lu Mian?”
Wang Xintong was perplexed.
With an innocent and sweet smile, Hua Ying revealed, “It was the sedative you gave .”
The sedative had weakened half of Lu Mian’s strength, which gave Hua Ying an opportunity to take advantage.
“…”
This ti, Wang Xintong didn’t even have the courage to glance at Lu Mian.
Ɲ0νǤᴑ.ƈο
She fled the room in a most awkward and hurried manner.
Hua Ying let out a soft, derisive chuckle, “Sister Mianmian, they are all so pragmatic; you don’t need to be upset.”
There was nothing for Lu Mian to be upset about.
Really, there wasn’t.
She just silently waited, to see what exactly Hua Ying wanted to do.
At that mont, the phone lying on the table buzzed, signaling a special tone exclusive to Xiao Qimo.
Hua Ying had never been optimistic about this affair.
“Did you fall in love with him just because he saved you?” Everyone knew that Number Thirteen had saved Lu Mian.
Lu Mian remained aloof and said nothing, prompting Hua Ying to gesture for her to take a look.
Lu Mian slowly unlocked the phone.
[We’re almost there, what are you up to?]
There was also a real-ti photo of a snowy landscape in the north.
Lu Mian’s expression darkened montarily, then she rembered the letter from last night.
After a slight emotional fluctuation, she calmly replied.
[Practicing calligraphy.]
Subsequently, she took a photo of the calligraphy and sent it over.
Xiao Qimo: [Good baby.]
Lu Mian didn’t say anything more, thodically put away the phone, and throughout she showed no signs of feeling threatened, quite at ease.
Her composure unexpectedly made Hua Ying feel a mont of panic.
Not wishing to delay any longer, Hua Ying swiftly departed the office with Lu Mian in tow.
When Sikong Jian ca back looking to regroup with Lu Mian, he found that both she and Hua Ying had vanished.
Wang Xintong truly hadn’t said a word.
——
Yinye Island.
New World Laboratory.
Hua Ying brought Lu Mian back to their main base.
Returning to this nightmare of a place, Lu Mian surveyed the cold instrunts around her, the impregnable walls that not even a fly could penetrate.
Her eyelashes drooped, hiding a glint of bloodthirsty excitent, and the corner of her lips curved into a mischievous arc.
Finally.
I’m here.
