“Pfft.”

In the almost suffocating silence, Fu Niannian broke the deadlock with a sneer.

He looked at the resume in his hand and glanced at it.

“Sun Heng, right? You haven’t published many papers, yet you’re quite confident.”

He said this with a smile, his tone light and indifferent. He was stating a fact, but there was a hint of directness in it.

“Since you already know that this little junior sister is indeed the person that was personally selected by the boss, then what is it that you still don’t understand?”

Shen Zhijin was famous for his high requirements.

With his status, he really did not want people who relied on favors and sent privileged people to him.

He only accepted truly capable people.

Now that he had personally selected Ning Li, wasn’t that enough to explain the situation?

Sun Heng frowned. He probably felt that something was wrong, but he could not say it out loud.

Yan Qiu, on the other hand, was calm. He glanced at Sun Heng and then looked at the door.

“Do you guys think so too?”

Everyone looked at each other, but no one said anything.

However, the meaning could not be more obvious.

Yan Qiu smiled slowly.

“Who said that the boss doesn’t have a standard when it comes to selecting people?”

He touched his chin,

“It’s very easy to enter this research group. As long as you can successfully publish a thesis in a core journal like Universe.”

Sun Heng’s expression changed slightly, and the crowd at the door also looked troubled.

Finally, Sun Heng could not help but say, “Senior Brother Yan Qiu, why do you have to say that on purpose? The number of people who can publish a thesis in Universe can be counted on one hand, and the number of universities and laboratories in the country can be counted on one hand. How many people can possibly satisfy such a request?”

Was this not deliberately making things difficult for him?

Yan Qiu seemed to feel that what he said made sense.

“Yes, so… papers published jointly as a second author can also be counted.”

Sun Heng frowned even more.

He had already determined that Yan Qiu was deliberately making things difficult for him.

“Senior Brother Yan Qiu, by saying this, do you mean that Ning Li has already fulfilled this request?” In his heart, he was already so angry that he almost laughed out loud, the tone of his voice mocking.

Who would have thought that in the next moment, Yan Qiu would actually smile and nod his head.

“That’s right.”

Sun Heng’s cold smile froze on his face.

The crowd at the entrance had also silenced all their voices.

Amidst the dead silence, Yan Qiu smiled and spoke.

“The 131st issue of Universe sub-journal, the first article published is little junior sister’s thesis.”

As he spoke, he turned to look at Tang Yi.

“Didn’t you go to the library to borrow a copy yesterday? Let them take a look.”

Tang Yi was reluctant.

“I haven’t finished reading it yet…”

As he spoke, he took a book out of his bag and handed it to Sun Heng.

“Hey, return it to me after reading it.”

Sun Heng held the journal stiffly.

Yan Qiu raised his voice.

“Take a good look at how the first author’s name is pronounced.”

Sun Heng’s heart sank, but he had no choice but to do it.

He flipped through the journal haphazardly.

A name came into view.

The first author was… Ning Li.

He felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and his entire body froze on the spot.

He had actually read this thesis before, but he had remembered that the author of the corresponding author was Xu Yin, so he had thought that it was one of his students.

Who knew…

When the other people standing at the door saw Sun Heng’s reaction, they immediately realized what was going on. They all stood quietly, rooted to the spot. They were all still in deep shock and unable to extricate themselves.

Ning Li had already published her thesis in Universe magazine as a first author?!

“But… but isn’t she only a freshman…” Sun Heng finally managed to find his voice and spoke with great difficulty.

“Just a friendly reminder…”

Yan Qiu’s hand lightly tapped on the table with a gentle smile.

“Junior Sister was only sixteen when she published this thesis.”

Sun Heng did not continue the interview and left in a hurry.

Fu Niannian looked at the door and said lazily, “Now, does any of you still have any questions?”

No one spoke.

He nodded in satisfaction.

“Alright, let’s continue with the interview then!”

The people outside hesitated for a long while before a boy braced himself and walked in.

It was a second-year graduate student.

Yan Qiu asked two questions before shaking his head, indicating that he was eliminated.

The boy’s face was flushed red. Before he left, he could not help but glance at Ning Li.

In fact, most of the people’s attention was still on Ning Li at this moment. The shock in their eyes had not faded.

Ning Li, on the other hand, remained indifferent.

She had only just come to the laboratory and was not as familiar with this place as Yan Qiu and the other two. Therefore, she basically did not have any opinions on this interview. She was just an observer.

She actually did not care about the gazes that fell on her.

After the initial incident, the interview went very smoothly.

Forty minutes later, Yan Qiu and Fu Niannian chose two people.

One was Zhu He, a second-year graduate student, and the other was Nie Cheng, a fourth-year graduate student.

The two of them had a lot of experience in experimental operations, and they also had a lot of scientific research ideas. They could be considered the best among this group of people.

Yan Qiu explained some basic matters to the two of them before allowing them to leave first.

Tang Yi went over to retrieve the journal.

He flipped it open and looked at it again before he shook his head with a sigh.

“Junior Sister, with your talent and research ability, you can totally be like the boss and get into the junior class at Xijing University in advance!”

Tang Yi had skipped a grade to get here. From his point of view, Ning Li choosing to attend high school and university normally was really a waste of time.

Once these words were said, Yan Qiu and Fu Niannian also felt that it made sense and looked over.

“That’s right! Think back to the time when the boss was 14 years old and went to Xijing University. When he was 17 years old, he managed to get into the headquarters of Fino Laboratory. This record hasn’t been broken until now. Junior Sister, you are so talented, yet you haven’t thought about this?”

Ning Li picked up her backpack, her expression calm.

“Yes, I haven’t thought about it before.”
