Sticking to Mr.Chairman in This Life-Chapter 998: Xiao Ge, Don’t Be Afraid of Me

Just as she took a step forward, she suddenly sensed something, turned her head, and looked again at the person inside the container.

The face was so familiar, so familiar that it instantly no longer felt terrifying.

Isn’t this... Kong Xue?

Once the campus belle of Medical University, Kong Xue.

She now floated with her eyes closed in the water, apart from her face and body being deathly pale, she looked just like she was asleep, showing no abnormalities.

Su Ge instinctively glanced at the label on the container.

It clearly bore the name of the Bafei Country virus they had been researching in the lab.

That’s right, Kong Xue had stormed into the laboratory and attacked her, accidentally smashing the bottle carrying the virus, and was unfortunately infected.

After the infection, she was taken away by the professor’s people.

It seems she didn’t survive until the day the laboratory produced the antidote and had died from the poison.

And then she was soaked here.

At the time, Kong Xue was taken by the professor.

So, all these people, are they the professor’s handiwork?

Why does the professor keep these people here...

Su Ge looked at so many people and felt a chill creeping across her scalp, feeling even more bewildered by Ye Mubai’s actions.

How many secrets might still be hidden under the professor’s gentle and elegant exterior?

Without daring to linger, Su Ge turned and walked out.

After a few steps, she slowly came to a halt, her eyes full of alarm as she looked ahead.

Ye Mubai, dressed in black, stood under the dim light, his exquisitely beautiful face was obscured by the light, yet his obsidian-like eyes gazed warmly at the terrified little woman before him.

Seeing the little woman frozen in place, he had no choice but to slowly walk towards her.

But as soon as he stepped forward, the little woman retreated a small step.

He hadn’t taken many steps when he stopped, his eyes filled with an intense pain as he looked at the little woman not far away, "Xiao Ge... are you afraid of me?"

"I..." For a moment, Su Ge didn’t know how to respond.

Her mind suddenly became a jumble.

The impeccably dressed man in front of her gave her a feeling as though she was meeting him anew.

The feeling wasn’t exactly fear, but in any case, it was somewhat difficult to accept for the time being.

Seeing Su Ge silent, Ye Mubai continued walking towards her.

This time, Su Ge didn’t retreat; however, as Ye Mubai approached, her body still trembled slightly.

Ye Mubai’s eyes grew darker with pain, and he slowly paused in front of Su Ge, "Xiao Ge, don’t be afraid of me."

"Professor..." As he got closer, Su Ge finally saw the deep pain in his eyes, and her body gradually stopped trembling.

She stared at him without blinking.

The two silently looked at each other for a while, then Ye Mubai suddenly reached out and pulled Su Ge into his embrace.

Su Ge widened her eyes in his arms.

She felt a gentle hand resting atop her head, while she heard a man’s utterly helpless voice at her ear, "You were frightened, weren’t you?"

The man gently caressed her hair, yet Su Ge said nothing but reached out gently to push him away, maintaining a certain distance.

Her Yihan would definitely not like her being so close to another man.

Ye Mubai did not mind Su Ge’s distancing; he turned his gaze slightly, glancing at those containers, "These are all patients who died from the virus."

"Did they die from the virus outbreak, or was it something else?" Su Ge asked almost without thinking.

This was the reason she was fearful of Ye Mubai.

Because these people might not have died from the virus outbreak.
