“And…”

The subordinate was a little hesitant and nervous. “I heard that they were sent by Country A to protect Miss Pei.”

They were not from Country A.

They were people sent by Country A to protect her.

This sentence brought them too much information, so much so that anger appeared in Xie Zhongqiu’s eyes for a moment. His expression was distorted as he gritted his teeth.

That wild girl did it on purpose.

She was not as simple as she looked!

It was obvious that someone would definitely come and take her down a notch in the early stages of this selection!

But in the end, she intimidated everyone in the Xie family!

The person sent by Country A, Pu Manhe from the aristocratic family in the K Continent warzone…

Be it the former or the latter, it meant that Pei Yunge had absolute dominance in this selection game!

Soon!

Another person rushed in from outside. “Master, Miss Pei has advanced.”

Hearing this, the atmosphere in the room became even colder!

Initially, when they heard their subordinate say that Elder An had taken Pei Yunge’s analysis paper, they thought that this move was useless!

He never thought that Pei Yunge would actually receive Old Master An’s approval.

Xie Zhongqiu closed his eyes in pain and clearly realized that Pei Yunge was not an easy person to control. He laughed coldly.

“I underestimated her.”

Qin Kaiming’s granddaughter was really better than he himself.

…

In the office of the research institute.

“Student Jian, don’t you think it’s a waste of your talent to stay in Yun University?”

At this moment, Qiao Lan was still thinking about how to change the stepping stone Xie Zhongqiu had found for her. At least, she wanted to find someone who matched her status.

It was obvious.

The Jian Xi in front of her was the candidate she was most satisfied with. She was also more talented than all the students she had taught in the past.

It would even make Qiao Lan feel invisible pressure.

A dark look flashed past Qiao Lan’s eyes. She knew very well that with Jian Xi’s talent, she would probably surpass her achievements in a few years.

However, as long as Jian Xi became her student, everything would be controllable.

“If you have something to say, Professor Qiao Lan, just say it.” Jian Xi sized up the person in front of her and inexplicably lowered her impression of Qiao Lan.

Jian Xi had always admired women with high qualifications in the academic field, including Qiao Lan. She had always thought that Qiao Lan should be as cold and arrogant as her teacher and worthy of respect.

However, seeing her today, Jian Xi realized that she might have been wrong.

“I heard that Student Jian has a tutor now?”

Qiao Lan maintained a faint smile on her face and her tone was naturally superior. “With Student Jian’s talent, wouldn’t it be wasted if she randomly found a lousy teacher?”

“If Student Jian is willing, I will lean towards you with the most resources and groom you, be it Barker or the Research Association.”

She did not find any information about Jian Xi’s mentor. He was probably a hooligan.

Qiao Lan didn’t think that there was anything wrong with poaching someone like this. She could only blame the other party for being useless and unlucky.

However, to Qiao Lan’s surprise, Jian Xi’s eyes turned cold little by little before she smiled sweetly.

“Professor Qiao Lan probably doesn’t know that I was lucky enough to become my current mentor’s student because my uncle helped me get in through the back door.”

“She’s the person I admire the most in the academic field. In my opinion, no one can compare to her.”

With that said…

The superiority and confident smile on Qiao Lan’s face froze instantly, as if she had been ruthlessly slapped several times!

“Professor Qiao Lan, thank you for liking me, but…”

“This also proves that my teacher is very capable, right?”

Jian Xi’s bright smile was still flawless, but there was a hidden meaning in her words.

She was just short of pointing at Qiao Lan’s nose. “If you really have the ability, don’t poach others and mind your own business.”
