She took a deep breath, rubbed her face, sobered up, stood up, paid the bill and left the cafe.
Qiao Nian...
She had thought she could enter a new stage of life soon, but why did Qiao Nian just refuse to let her go and always want to snatch her away!
*
Shi Fu heard from Feng Yu early in the morning that Qiao Nian agreed to join the Privy Council, and he was absent-minded all morning.
At noon, he finally couldn't sit still and went to the laboratory used by girls alone to look for someone.
Qiao Nian asked Feng Yu for an independent laboratory, which she used alone and no outsiders knew what she was researching.
Feng Yu was very tolerant of this and quickly approved a small laboratory for her.
Apart from asking Xu Yi for help, no one else has entered Qiao Nian's laboratory.
“Knock, knock.”
There was a knock on the door outside the laboratory.
The girl who had just finished a reactor experiment took off her silicone gloves, walked to the computer to record the data, and said without even looking up, "Come in."
Shi Fu pushed the door open and went in.
He immediately saw the reactor on the experimental table.
The chemical reagents inside had burned into a charred mixture, but he had spent decades in the laboratory after all.
You can tell at a glance what type of experiment a girl is doing.
Qiao Nian wrote down the data she had just concluded, then turned around. Seeing that it was Shi Fu who came over, she raised her eyebrows, a little surprised.
However, she did not deliberately hide the things on her laboratory table, but walked to the water dispenser and poured a glass of water for Shi Fu.
Then she stood by the lab table and said, "Do you want to talk to me?"
Shi Fu came back to his senses, took the water from her, held it in his hand for a long time before saying, "I'm sorry for what happened before."
Qiao Nian: “?”
What happened before? She couldn't remember for a moment.
Shi Fu saw that she didn't say anything, pursed his lips, and said with difficulty: "I shouldn't have said that to you before, don't take what I said to heart."
A flash of realization flashed across Qiao Nian's dark eyes, and she finally understood what he was talking about. She raised her hand and said nonchalantly, "I forgot everything."
Shi Fusong took a deep breath, and a rare smile appeared on his serious face. He lowered his head to drink a sip of water, then raised his head to look at her: "If you want to enter the Privy Council, you still have to go through their review. When you enter in the future, you have to start as a newcomer."
"Newcomers to the Privy Council generally have no say, especially... they discriminate against Orientals."
After all, the Privy Council is an institution composed of the main members of the hidden families, and most of the people in the hidden families are Westerners.
People with Asian faces are excluded and discriminated against there.
It’s just like when Qiao Nian and the others were in Country M, those people would naturally look down on them because they are Orientals!
Deep down, they don't approve of Oriental people.
Qiao Nian narrowed his eyes, looked quite annoyed, and smiled, "Really? I discriminate against idiots, too."
"..." Shi Fu saw her rebellious look, and for some reason he was no longer worried about her: "It's good that you think so. As long as you don't take them seriously, they are just ordinary people."
The people around Qiao Nian are more or less "ordinary people".
She did not feel much mystery or awe towards an institution like the Privy Council. She just felt that the Privy Council's external image was quite pretentious.
Before Shi Fu left, his eyes fell on her experimental table again, and he paused and said, "I saw her do the experiment you did. If you encounter any difficulties, you can come to me and I will try my best to help you."
Qiao Nian looked at his back as he walked away quickly, blinked slowly, and held back the words that were about to come out of her mouth.
Why does she feel that her mentor seems to have different feelings for Ji Qing
Qiao Nian rubbed his face, shook off the thoughts in his mind, and walked over to continue checking the data on the computer.
