Chapter 630: A Mysterious Master Appears
Ji Weitian was left standing there, dumbfounded for a moment before she came to her senses and touched her lips, then looked up at the man who was striding forward without looking back...
She felt that he was acting a bit strange today.
It was like he was angry, but also not quite angry.
He was clearly misbehaving, yet she wasn’t angry but instead felt a bit of heartache.
Ji Weitian not only felt he was acting strangely, but she also thought she herself was acting weird today.
Seeing that Qin Nanyu really wasn’t waiting for her, she didn’t fuss or throw a fit, instead, she huffed and puffed and caught up to him, entering the laboratory building together with him.
When they arrived, Ji Weitian realized that it wasn’t just the two of them in the laboratory.
The entire experimental team was present.
Inside the laboratory, the lights were bright, and everyone was sitting on their chairs, waiting for Qin Nanyu to come over.
Seeing Ji Weitian following beside Qin Nanyu, everyone was visibly taken aback, but the first to regain composure was Lei Yunjia.
He happily stood up from his seat and waved to Ji Weitian, "Teacher Ji, how come you’re here too? Do you want to sit over here by me?"
Beside Lei Yunjia, there was an empty seat.
His seat was at the end of the long table, the farthest from Qin Nanyu’s position. Ji Weitian hesitated for just a second before walking over to him.
Lei Yunjia was also gentleman enough to pull the chair out for her to sit down.
"Thank you," Ji Weitian said instinctively.
"You’re welcome; serving a beauty is my honor," Lei Yunjia scratched his head, clearly a young rookie who barely managed to hide his admiration for Ji Weitian.
Qin Nanyu felt uncomfortable seeing this, but having just been rejected in his confession, he wasn’t in a position to complain about Lei Yunjia being attentive to Ji Weitian.
When he sat down, he realized that Ji Weitian was sitting diagonally opposite him, at the furthest position from him, which darkened his expression even more.
The atmosphere in the laboratory was somewhat stifling.
Everyone thought that the recent mishap had put Qin Nanyu in a bad mood. After exchanging glances, the team leader, Liu Pan, was the first to speak.
"President Qin, we’ve just checked the lab’s data and confirmed that our experimental data hasn’t been leaked, and the degree of similarity with the data released by re Group isn’t high..."
As Liu Pan spoke, the atmosphere in the lab dropped even lower.
Everyone’s expressions were grim, staring at the data sheets they had just received, looking at each other as if they were defeated roosters, their expressions somewhat listless.
This scene puzzled Ji Weitian.
She had been brought over to the lab by Qin Nanyu on the spur of the moment and didn’t know what had happened.
Initially, seeing everyone gathered in the lab, she thought there was an experiment reaching a critical phase and that they needed her help organizing the data, which was why Qin Nanyu brought her along.
But now, she inexplicably sensed defeat from everyone.
Their conversation mentioned re Group and some experimental data she couldn’t quite grasp...
Ji Weitian frowned and turned to ask Lei Yunjia, "What happened?"
Lei Yunjia never treated Ji Weitian as an outsider; even though he was in a bad mood himself, he still quietly explained to her.
"re Group just announced a new research achievement, which is our experimental team’s current objective. We’ve been trying to crack it for a long time without finding the key algorithm. Now, not only has someone beaten us to it, but they also skipped the second and third stages, moving directly to the final phase..."
They were utterly outclassed!
