2100 Xie Xinyao Is Waiting to Make a Fool of Us
This wasn’t the first time Ye Wangchuan sent her to the research institute. He knew the way there by heart.
In less than twenty minutes, he parked the car steadily on the road opposite the research institute and watched as the girl unbuckled her seatbelt, grabbed her shoulder bag, and got out of the car.
He rolled down the window and said very naturally, “I’ll pick you up in the afternoon.”
Having just closed the door, Qiao Nian turned around and frowned. She was about to say that there was no need, but she changed her words. “Okay.”
The phone in her pocket vibrated as soon as she finished speaking.
Qiao Nian took it out and looked down at the screen.
It was Xue Zhu.
She didn’t pick up.
She waved at the man in the car and then coolly walked towards the research institute. “I’m going in.”
Ye Wangchuan watched as the girl entered the research institute. Then, he rolled up the window, turned the car around, and drove away.
…
In the research institute.
Level 8 laboratory.
The people from the Level 8 laboratory arrived early today.
The members, who usually only arrived at 8:20 AM, arrived around 8:00 AM today.
Shen Qingfeng, Xue Zhu, and Xu Yi also arrived early to gather with Cao Yanhua and Han Cheng.
At the same time, there were also many people on Xie Xinyao’s side, and they were all official members of the Level 8 laboratory.
Comparing the two sides, Cao Yanhua and the others immediately looked weak and shabby.
Xie Xinyao had arrived early and had changed into an experimental gown. Tall and with an outstanding appearance, she was especially eye-catching among the group, and people would notice her at a glance.
“Senior Brother Cao, is Qiao Nian not here yet?” Xie Xinyao had been chatting with the little fatty and the others. Seeing that it was almost half-past eight, she raised her chin and asked Cao Yanhua.
Previously, she had always been polite to Cao Yanhua, but this time, her tone was especially arrogant. It was obvious that she was very dissatisfied that he was not on her side this time.
Cao Yanhua’s dark face looked honest, but he had his own opinions. He said neither servile nor overbearing as he replied, “It’s not even half-past eight. There’s no hurry.”
Xie Xinyao’s eyes turned cold. Without saying anything, she turned around and continued chatting with the person next to her.
Meanwhile, Xu Yi and the others were in a world of ice and fire.
Even Han Cheng couldn’t help but ask Xue Zhu, “Junior Sister Xue, haven’t you contacted Qiao Nian?”
Xue Zhu had just called Qiao Nian. She shook her head, looking worried. “I called her, but she didn’t pick up.”
Xu Yi frowned, his usually handsome face darkening. He straightened his back and said, “I’ll go out and take a look.”
“Don’t be rash.” Shen Qingfeng grabbed his arm and stopped him. “Xie Xinyao and the others will be even more smug.”
Xu Yi frowned and turned to look at him.
Shen Qingfeng said calmly, “They’re waiting to laugh at us.”
Xu Yi looked to the other side. Xie Xinyao and they seemed to be chatting, but in fact, she kept glancing in their direction. She was clearly paying attention to their movements at all times.
As long as he went out to look for Qiao Niao, Xie Xinyao would definitely mock them. She would probably even say that Qiao Nian had become a deserter.
Suppressing the ball of anger in his chest, Xu Yi sat back down silently with a straight face.
Fortunately, Qiao Nian did not make them wait long.
Two minutes before 8:30, a girl wearing a baseball cap appeared punctually at the entrance of the Level 8 laboratory.
