Tan Rou was walking on the campus with a large stack of documents in her arms. It was time for students to go to class, so there weren’t many people on the road. However, Tan Rou felt that someone was staring at her. When she turned around, there was no one suspicious.

Today’s information was needed by her experimental group for their new research institute. As the team leader, Tan Rou had to come personally to find the information. Otherwise, she would not be at ease.

When she was in her fourth year of university, Jiang Min and Shang had already graduated. Hence, she was the only golden flower left in their ‘Five Golden Flowers’ group.

Fortunately, there were more talents in the school. As soon as Tan Rou was admitted to graduate school, she began to organize a new experimental group. She planned to bring her team members to TR when she graduated.

The road to the new technology building was rather remote. Tan Rou had to pass by a forest. The original technology building had been demolished and rebuilt, and now it had been converted into an indoor stadium.

When they reached the middle of the forest, Tan Rou suddenly heard the sound of metal hitting the trees. Although the sound was subtle, she still caught it.

It was really strange. Why would there be the sound of metal hitting trees in the forest? Tan Rou was cautious.

When she was about to walk out of the forest, she heard that voice again, and it seemed to be getting closer and closer to her.

Tan Rou was curious about who was following her, so she slowed down and waited for that person to catch up.

She walked to the edge of the forest and was about to turn around to see if the person had caught up to her when she saw a black shadow suddenly rush up. He was holding a green leather portable fuel tank in his hand. It was probably the fuel tank that had hit the tree just now.

The gas tank was open. When the masked man saw Tan Rou stop, he splashed the liquid on her.

Tan Rou had been on guard against that person for a long time, so when the other party rushed over, she hid to the side and then went around to the back of that person.

The man reacted quickly and immediately turned around to spill the liquid on the ground. However, the opening of the fuel tank was very small, and a lot of the liquid spilled on the man.

Tan Rou could smell what the liquid was. “Are you crazy?” she scolded. “This place is full of trees and lawns. If you start a fire here, this entire place will be burned down by you!”

The man didn’t say anything. He continued to pour the gasoline on the ground, and some of it splashed onto Tan Ron’s shoes.

Tan Rou took a few steps back and took out her phone to call the police. “This is the Capital University. If you start a fire here, I’ll call the police to arrest you immediately.”

Seeing that the gasoline could not be poured on Tan Rou, the person poured all the gasoline on the ground, then took out a lighter from his pocket and lit the surroundings.

Tan Ron’s eyes widened. “Lunatic!”

The autumn season was relatively dry, and the grass on the ground was also very dry. After being lit, the flames quickly rushed up, and the person’s clothes were also set on fire.

“Let’s burn to death together!” That person finally spoke.

Tan Rou recognized her voice. “You’re Xue Lin’s nanny!”

Aunt Juan smiled and said, “There’s no other way. You refuse to help Xiaoxue, I can only use this method. If I burn your face, you’ll make that ointment. At that time, Xiaoxue’s injuries will be cured as well.”

Tan Rou couldn’t believe it. She knew that Xue Lin was crazy, even crazier after she got sick; but she didn’t expect that Xue Lin would send people to burn her, and in such a way.

Aunt Juan felt the pain and pounced on Tan Rou, wanting to pull her into the sea of fire. Tan Ron’s movements were very agile. She ran out in two or three steps. However, there was too much gasoline, and her pants were still slightly burned.

Tan Rou immediately rolled to the ground and used the grass that hadn’t been burned to extinguish the fire.

Aunt Juan wasn’t so lucky. She seemed to regret using this method to take revenge on Tan Rou, so she shouted, “Save me! I don’t want to die!”

Her body was covered in blue flames. The flames burned her clothes and grass, making crackling sounds. Tan Rou made a prompt decision. She quickly tore off the branches and leaves of the trees beside her and threw them at Aunt Juan.

When the students passing by saw the fire, they rushed over to put it out, mainly to save people.

The flames on the ground had burned the grass and wood. The situation was very dangerous.
