A rather cryptic remark from President Zhang furrowed Rong Qi’s brow. Without a response, she simply walked out.
Xing Han led her towards a somewhat decrepit building.
“What is this place?” Rong Qi asked.
“It’s the old lab of Capital University. It may look run-down on the outside, but inside, it’s quite another story.”
Xing Han spoke while aligning his eye with a scanner at the door. With a beep, the large door swung open.
Through multiple levels of security checks, Xing Han and Rong Qi finally made their way inside. The laboratory door revealed an array of equipment that was both advanced and awe-inspiring.
“Is this a physics lab?” Rong Qi inquired.
“It used to be. But the equipment here goes beyond just physics. Want to take a look inside?” Xing Han explained as he raised an eyebrow at Rong Qi.
Rong Qi stepped inside, her eyes scanning the modern devices mixed with relics of past research and numerous semi-completed projects. Despite the disarray, the potential was overwhelming, stirring a surge of excitement within her.
It took a moment for Rong Qi to regain her composure after leaving the lab, and she was still pondering the purpose of President Zhang’s directive to show her this place.
“Ms. Seven, we all hope you’ll continue to stay at Capital University. We need talents like you to run the lab.”
“I’m only average at physics,” Rong Qi stated.
“It’s about putting the right people in the right roles. To complete an entire project, it takes more than just physics, doesn’t it? Do you know where President Zhang went on his trip?” Xing Han asked.
Rong Qi shook her head, uninterested in those she didn’t care about.
“Well, to tell you the truth, President Zhang went to Merica to meet with your teacher personally and got to know your situation. Surely you studied more than just computer science and finance in Merica, right?
“Your numerical simulations and aerospace experiments are still on display in the most tightly guarded locations in Merica. Your files are under top-level security by the Merica Federal Investigation and the CIA.
“Ms. Seven, your teacher also hopes you can contribute to this project. I’ll send you the information later, and you can make your decision after reviewing it, okay?”
Rong Qi remained silent, just contemplating.
“Let’s go, regardless of what your final decision might be. Don’t think about it now; let’s go grab some lunch. President Zhang is treating, which is quite rare.”
Xing Han led Rong Qi toward the cafeteria. With exams ending, the pathway was bustling with students heading to lunch. President Zhang had also arranged for a feast in the fourth cafeteria, so it was an unusual day for Rong Qi to see such a crowd.
“President Zhang is waiting in a private room. Shall we go inside?” Xing Han asked.
Rong Qi nodded, following behind Xing Han. But just as they took a step forward, a clattering noise from the cafeteria drew everyone’s attention.
Not far off, Duan Shujie stood with his posse, arrogantly kicking over a fellow student’s meal tray with a smirk. “Such bad luck at lunch. Running into a bunch of animals.”
The crowd around Duan Shujie erupted in laughter following his comment.
The tray belonged to a boy from Class 7, Zhang Fu. Huang Hao and others were seated nearby.
Huang Hao and his friends saw that, they stood up to confront them. But, Duan Shujie’s group quickly overpowered them.
“Duan Shujie, what are you trying to do? Bully us in broad daylight?” Zhang Fu glared at Duan Shujie, outraged over his overturned meal.
Duan Shujie, hand in his pocket, delivered a kick straight to Zhang Fu’s chest, knocking him to the ground. “I made it clear on the day I arrived that the fourth cafeteria is Class l’s territory. Class 7 and dogs are not allowed.. Didn’t you see my post?”
