Chapter 690: Chapter 689: Warning and Slapping with Strength
Hearing the middle-aged man’s words, Wen Xin’s beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, “You are…?”

“Oh oh, look at me, I got so excited I forgot to introduce myself, I am the dean of the Biology Department, Xing Yong.”

Xing Yong looked at Wen Xin with a benevolent face, his eyes carrying an indescribable sense of contentment.

“Did Dean Xing specifically wait here for me?” Wen Xin asked with a cool expression, looking at Xing Yong. Her impression of the Research Institute was not very deep, and recently, the Research Institute had shown signs of defiance, which made her impression of these people not very favorable.

“Yes, I did wait here especially for you to ask if you have time. Would you visit the lab with me? Those people know your identity and have been waiting for you to return.”

Xing Yong recalled how absurd he thought it was when Tang Ming told him that Wen Xin from the Physics Department was going to study in the Biology Department.

After learning Wen Xin’s identity, he secretly rejoiced, glad that he did not refuse, otherwise, he would have missed a good opportunity to ingratiate himself with Wen Xin.

Wen Xin glanced at Xing Yong impassively and stepped back silently, shaking her head slightly, “Forget it, there will be a chance sooner or later. I have a class today, so I’ll be going now.”

After declining Xing Yong’s invitation, Wen Xin headed straight towards the classroom. Watching her leave, Xing Yong stood in place, his eyes that resembled a fox’s squinting slightly.

When Wen Xin entered the classroom, the teacher had not yet come to start the lesson. She walked in calmly, only to see Diwu Qixian sitting at the back row, excitedly waving at her. Wen Xin nodded lightly and walked toward Diwu Qixian.

Wen Xin’s arrival captured the attention of everyone in the classroom. Even those students oblivious to the world around them couldn’t help but turn their gaze towards her, feeling that today’s Wen Xin was dazzling, almost glowing, making it impossible to look away.

Of course, not all gazes fixed on Wen Xin were admiring; some were tinged with jealousy.

While many people had been following the gossip online, not everyone was from Beijing’s inner circles, and they couldn’t understand the complex web of interests.

“Hmph, it’s just ridiculous. After causing such a big scandal yesterday, today she has the nerve to dress so ostentatiously. I don’t know what she’s trying to show off.”

“Honestly, even though the entertainment company clarified things, you can tell that it must be because my brother is worried about getting entangled with such a person, so he was in a hurry to distance himself from her. Her flamboyance today is just laughable.”

“I heard too that it was because my husband is worried about his career being affected, but at the same time, he can’t afford to offend the simple-minded crown prince of Mu family, so he had the entertainment company hastily issue that statement. Seriously, it’s just ridiculous…”

“So, that’s how it is. I thought that statement was too strange. Turns out it was the capitalists involved. It’s scary. And to think, the way he looked at my idol didn’t seem like a brotherly gaze at all. It’s so disgusting!”

“Aren’t you curious about the prince of the capital? It’s such a pity that someone so young has lost his sight.”

“You can’t talk like that. She is genuinely beautiful, and do you realize what having two major labs means…? The crown prince marrying her is also about consolidating his power. I’ve heard the crown prince is also a…”

“Alright, no more talk, we can’t afford to mess with the affairs of Beijing!” A kind-hearted warning suddenly sounded from behind several people. Although it seemed like a well-intentioned reminder, the astute among them knew that such a reminder only served to reinforce the speculations of others.

Qi Qian, frustrated by the discussion she overheard, wanted to rush forward and argue with them. If she dared to curse at Mu Chengxi, what was there to be afraid of with anyone else?

She had been taught from a young age that one must be sensible in both actions and behavior. Yet those people were clearly spouting nonsense and making wild accusations, which was infuriating.

“If they talk about me, it can’t do me any harm. What’s the use of you arguing with them? It won’t seal their lips, so there’s no need to bother!”

“All that needs to be sealed is their path. Since I am the successor of the Biological Laboratory, for as long as I am there, they can forget about setting foot in it.”

Wen Xin’s voice wasn’t loud, but those people heard it loud and clear. They felt her voice was exceptionally cold today, giving them a chilling sensation, as if they should bundle up in cotton clothes despite it only being October.

They all turned their heads unconsciously to look in Wen Xin’s direction, only to see her sitting casually on a chair. When their eyes met, she provocatively raised her eyebrows as if asking them, “What can you do to me?”

The scene of Wen Xin instantly putting those people in their place made Qi Qian want to bow in admiration. But the timing wasn’t right, so all she did was clasp her hands together and say to Wen Xin.

“Impressive, impressive, you’re my idol!”

Watching Qi Qian’s proud demeanor, Wen Xin smiled faintly and casually noticed two boys sitting next to Qi Qian whom she had not seen before.

In her excitement, Qi Qian noticed Wen Xin’s gaze on the two people beside her and realized she hadn’t yet introduced her good friends to Wen Xin.

“Oh right, Wen Xin, let me introduce you. This is Dong Shunian, my high school classmate who also competed in many biology competitions, and this is my online friend, Dongfang Jinghang. I just found out yesterday that he’s also at Jingda University, and even in the same class as us…”

Qi Qian enthusiastically introduced her two friends to Wen Xin, feeling very happy to be able to introduce her own friends to her.

Wen Xin looked at the two handsome boys and nodded slightly, introducing herself, “Hello, I’m Wen Xin. I look forward to getting along with you.”

After the recent incident, both classmates were aware of Wen Xin’s status and were a bit nervous when facing her, mimicking her nod and saying in a soft voice, “Hello.”

After getting acquainted, the teacher walked in from outside and began calling roll. Oddly, after calling Wen Xin’s name, the teacher immediately started the lesson.

Qi Qian looked at Wen Xin with curiosity, but Wen Xin, equally puzzled, shook her head and didn’t dwell on it.

Class went by quickly. Qi Qian and Dong Shunian had agreed to go to the library to copy notes and asked Wen Xin if she wanted to join, but Wen Xin shook her head indifferently.

“You two go ahead. I have some other things to do. Just show me your notes after you’ve copied them.” With that, Wen Xin picked up her backpack and headed toward the administration building.
