Chapter 496: Don’t Worry, I Won’t Hit Anyone

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Tan Weiming knew Shi Qian’s personality, but this matter was not something she could solve alone.

How could a young girl like her solve it? Hence, he thought of another way.

Shi Qian did not say anything and planned to investigate it later.

She had a way to find out, although no one announced the quota yet.

Tan Weiming continued, “Do you remember that judge called Bai Liyue from the computer programming competition? She was the C University’s Science and Technology Department director.

“I can see that she thinks highly of you in the competition. You could have a chance if you go to her.”

Shi Qian frowned when she heard Bai Liyue’s name.

“Director, I know you’re doing this for my good, but I still want to resolve this matter myself. Is this related to Zhuang Shuyu?” She asked after a pause.

Tan Weiming didn’t say anything, but his expression implied yes.

“I understand.” Shi Qian turned around and left afterward.

“Shi Qian…”

Tan Weiming wanted to say something else, but Shi Qian interrupted her. She said half-jokingly, “Director, don’t worry. I won’t hit anyone.”

Tan Weiming was at a loss for words.

Shi Qian came out of the Administrative Building. She met Shi Muxue, who had just emerged from the same building.

Shi Muxue knew Tan Weiming wanted Shi Qian to participate in the Security Department’s assessment.

That was the Security Department, the symbol of power. How could she let them have their way?

Shi Muxue was in a good mood when she knew one had replaced Shi Qian’s spot in the assessment.

She looked at Shi Qian and smiled smugly.

Song Wei waited for Shi Muxue by the roadside. When she saw her, she immediately went to greet her. “Muxue, Director Zhuang is looking for you.”

“Yes, she asked me about the new research institute project.” Shi Muxue nodded slightly.

“The director is so nice to you. He cares about you so much,” Song Wei said enviously.

Shi Muxue smiled.

Song Wei glanced at Shi Qian, who was not far away, and said, “Muxue, do you know about the recruitment of the Imperial Capital’s Ministry of Security? I heard that Director Tan signed Shi Qian up. Do you know?”

Song Wei deliberately reminded Shi Muxue. She knew that Shi Muxue could not bear to see Shi Qian doing well.

However, Shi Muxue did not need her reminder. She paid more attention to Shi Qian than anyone else.

She would never let go of any opportunity to stop Shi Qian.

“Is that so? I’m not too sure,” Shi Muxue replied indifferently.

“I thought you knew.” Song Wei smiled.

Shi Muxue suddenly stopped in her tracks. She looked at her and smiled. “Song Wei, your results are quite good. I think you can enter the research institute too. After this period, the project team wouldn’t be busy. Come with me to meet Director Zhou.”

That startled Song Wei when she heard this.

Perhaps the surprise came too suddenly, and she forgot to react.

“What’s wrong?” Shi Muxue smiled and asked. “Are you not okay with it?”

Song Wei immediately came back to her senses. Her eyes lit up, and she was excited. She forced herself to remain calm. “Was it possible? Will Director Zhou meet me?”

“With me around, she will.”

“Muxue, thank you.” Song Wei looked at Shi Muxue gratefully.

At least she did not suck up to Shi Muxue for such a long time.

Just thinking about being able to enter the research institute made her extremely excited.

In the classroom, Shi Qian looked at the computer screen and quickly found the person who had snatched her spot.

As expected, it was related to Zhuang Shuyu. He was the son of her good friend, a wealthy second-generation heir with good grades.

He could barely enter the Security Department, although he surpassed only a few of his grades with excellence. He wouldn’t even pass the beginner

assessment..
