Falling Out

"I'll bear the responsibility. It won't fall on you."

Bai Qing's expression changed. The girl beside her was unhappy.

"An undergraduate student who doesn't know anything is taking advantage of her status as Professor Zhang's last disciple to come with us to Ningjiang County to get school credit."

"All of us have been studying hard in the laboratory every day. We've been scolded so many times to get to where we are today. Isn't it too outrageous to let someone who doesn't know anything take advantage of this opportunity?"

Zhao Qiao couldn't stand it and retorted, "Tang Zhi is in the same group as Senior Brother Sun. How did she take advantage of your group?"

"Zhao Qiao, don't try to retort me. Senior Brother Sun has been helping her all the time. Do you really think we can't tell? In the future, if all the newbies enter the laboratory are like her, will we still be able to do anything?"

"Heh, who told you that Tang Zhi doesn't do anything? Senior Brother Sun's team's research report has already been written. It was Tang Zhi who stayed up late to write it."

Ruan Rou's expression changed. "That's impossible!"

Then, she said disdainfully, "You don't have to lie to defend her."

"Hm, I can't be bothered to argue with you."

Zhao Qiao placed the tray at the recycling bin and walked past Bai Qing and the others without looking back.

After everyone had left, another girl muttered, "Could she have really finished writing the report?"

"How is that possible? Even if it was us, we wouldn't be able to write the research report so quickly."

"That's true. I can't write it in such a short time either."

Ruan Rou sneered. "Zhao Qiao really dares to say anything in order to protect her. Even Senior Brother Sun is helping her. Senior Brother Sun has never been like this in the past. The laboratory is so tense because of her."

"You should stop talking."

"Don't go in the kitchen if you can't stand the heat." Ruan Rou said disdainfully, "Research is based on true ability, not on looks or connections."

"Bai Qing isn't bad either. In terms of her connections with Huanyu Corporation, isn't she better than her? But she still stayed up late to write research papers and do experiments with us. When has she ever put on airs?"

Bai Qing smiled reservedly and said, "Ruan Rou, you're getting further and further away from the topic. How can I take shortcuts when learning?"

"You don't have such thoughts, but I'm afraid others won't think the same way." Ruan Rou pretended to be angry. "Bai Qing, if Reporter Zhao hadn't received the call this time, we wouldn't have known that you have such a good family background and even know Vice President Yun of Huanyu Corporation."

Bai Qing smiled nonchalantly. "My uncle doesn't like us talking about this outside."

"I understand. Your family is strict." Ruan Rou's eyes lit up as she felt even more envious.

Bai Qing smiled and did not reply. However, in Ruan Rou's eyes, it was more like a silent agreement.

...

Tang Zhi knocked on the red-painted wooden door with familiarity and the door was soon opened.

"Miss Tang." Yun Hai greeted her with a smile.

After interacting with each other for the past two days, he felt that they were already considered quite familiar.

Moreover, he was very curious about Tang Zhi.

After all, not many people could make Master Chen treat them differently.

Tang Zhi nodded and muttered, "Thank you for what happened last night, Vice President Yun."

"Miss Tang, you can just call me Yun Hai. As for the matter of sponsoring that child, I know you can settle it yourself. You're just doing Huanyu a favor."

Whether it was the Tang Family or Li Jingcheng, the young master of Li Tai Pharmaceutical Company, it was not difficult to sponsor a child.
