Making poison, playing with poison, and studying poison: those are her interests and hobbies.
Saving people, killing people, and torturing people: those are her strengths and virtues.
That's right, she's a doctor, or as they say in modern parlance... a physician!
She has medical ethics but no compassion. Whether she treats someone depends entirely on her mood.
One injury, one fateful twist of destiny, brought together two people from opposite ends of the world who had absolutely nothing to do with each other.
Later, when the woman became a military doctor...
At their first meeting, she saved him when he was on the brink of death. The location of his wound was... thought-provoking.
At their next meeting, she offered to marry him in return!
His answer was, “I... would love to.”
She said, “Actually, I was joking.”
To Mu Lin, there are only two kinds of people in the world: patients and corpses.
To Jing Chen, there are only two kinds of people in the world too: family and soldiers.
But when he met her, and she met him, everything was bound to undergo a chemical change.
A little scene
One day, a certain man struck a sultry pose, his eyes smoldering. “From now on, I'm all yours.”
A certain poison doctor leaned in, the corners of her mouth lifting. “Do you really mean that?” Out of sight, a silver needle in her hand gleamed coldly.
Another little scene
One day in the future, a certain little darling asked, “Mommy, why was your taste so bad back then? Why did you pick this guy to be my daddy?” So embarrassing.
Mu Lin said, “That's a serious question. I need to think it over carefully.” She really did need to think it over carefully.
The little darling grinned triumphantly. “So Daddy isn't your true love after all.” The next second, someone went flying through the air in an arc. “Madam...” came a plaintive voice.
“Good boy.”
Everyone knew that Lord Jing never had any interest in women, but what they didn't know was that from the moment they first met, her image had already quietly found its way into his heart.
Some say Lord Jing brought Mu Lin down from her lofty pedestal, but Mu Lin would say she did so willingly.
