Chapter 679: Base 684 had an accident
Seeing Nanrong Wanqing stepping forward, Ling Chen, unable to persuade her, hurriedly followed her steps towards the laboratory. Upon reaching the laboratory door, Ling Chen stretched out his hand in front of Nanrong Wanqing and whispered, "Do you really want to go in?"
Nanrong Wanqing replied discontentedly, "Do you really not trust me?"
Ling Chen smirked bitterly to himself, now somewhat regretting it. If he had known this would happen, he should not have brought Nanrong Wanqing to the research base. This was only causing himself trouble.
Thinking it over, Ling Chen dropped his hand which had been blocking Nanrong Wanqing, voluntarily helped her open the door, and welcomed her into the laboratory.
Ling Chen had thought it through; instead of preventing Nanrong Wanqing from meeting Zhu Xiaozhu and avoiding conflict, it would be better to let them have a chance to talk and possibly resolve their grudges.
With this thought, Ling Chen entered the laboratory, ready to introduce the situation inside to Nanrong Wanqing. However, at this moment, Nanrong Wanqing stretched out her hand, clasping Ling Chen’s arm affectionately.
Ling Chen was slightly taken aback by Nanrong Wanqing’s action, and then he realized its meaning; apart from a bitter smile, he could express nothing.
"Ling..."
At that moment, Zhu Xiaozhu walked into the laboratory from the outside. Seeing Ling Chen’s back, she started to speak out of habit. However, as soon as she spoke, she saw Ling Chen and Nanrong Wanqing turn around.
When Zhu Xiaozhu’s gaze fell on Nanrong Wanqing, her facial expression changed slightly, but it only lasted a moment before she regained her usual composure, with no signs of emotional fluctuation in her calm eyes.
"So Miss Nanrong is also here," Zhu Xiaozhu said expressionlessly, her tone indiscernible.
Nanrong Wanqing gave a light smile. "Miss Zhu, long time no see."
