Standing in front of the vine that actively rejects guests, Xiao Xian raised an eyebrow.
In the research center, Dr. Loch was wearing a helt and was clad in attire similar to that of a mountaineer. He was cautiously staring at the plants ahead, completely unaware that outside the research center, soone was targeting his precious "Genetic No.2 Vine."
The Genetic No.2 Vine is an updated species of Genetic No.1 Vine. After Zhou Ziang used fire to drive away the vines on the outer wall of the research center, Loch racked his brain and finally developed this super ivy that can withstand severe cold, prevent pests, and resist fire.
Once planted, this type of vine can cover the entire research center in just a few days.
"Why does it feel like it suddenly got brighter?" Dr. Loch, who was thoroughly observing the movents of the plants in front of him, looked up and glanced at the research center’s walls. He liked planting vine-like plants on the exterior walls of the research center because vines can prevent unrelated personnel from entering the center, and they have an excellent shade and cooling effect, keeping the research center in a relatively cool state year-round.
"Where did my Genetic Vine No.2 go?" Loch removed his protective helt and, feeling anxious, rushed out of the research center.
"Didn’t expect such a rich variety of species inside," a small face peeked from the position of the vent on the cleaned rooftop of the research center.
"Hey, where did you co from? Where did you take my Genetic No.2 Vine?" Dr. Loch, still maintaining his "broccoli" hairstyle, stood below the research center, pointing at Xiao Xian and shouting.
"So he is Dr. Loch," Xiao Xian leaped down, her extraordinarily agile movents making Dr. Loch snort coldly.
"You must be sent by the head office, who made you so disrespectful to actually... " Dr. Loch looked around but couldn’t find his Genetic No.2 Vine. He was terrified, rembering how last ti Zhou Ziang used fire. This girl’s thods were even more vicious, having clipped the vines of the research center clean. It’s unclear what rare thods she used as those self-repairing and growing vines had failed, leaving only bare poles.
"Minister Michael asked to assist you. The plants in this research center are quite impressive," Xiao Xian said as she proceeded to walk into the research center. It was only April, yet what she saw was a scene of autumn harvest.
The corn, barely a ter tall, had ears as thick as her arm. The Hami lons growing on the ground were each as large as a washbasin, and cherry-colored tomatoes hung all over the branches.
"Quite impressive?" Loch’s anger hadn’t subsided. To hear Xiao Xian rely describe his research center as impressive made him even angrier, not knowing where this boastful young girl had erged from. "Don’t focus on sightseeing first, tell where you ca from and which departnt of ngshan you belong to?"
"ngshan? I’m not from ngshan Company. My na is Zhu Xiaoxian. I’m from China, an exchange student from the Huake Institute, here to participate in this exchange activity," Xiao Xian sensed the abundant spiritual energy in the research center. The fruits grown in such an environnt would naturally be special. However, they were only about the sa level as those in the Spiritual Fruit Garden at Huake Institute North Campus, so she only praised them as quite good.
"From the Huake Institute? Hmph, isn’t it just because you have a Spiritual Fruit Garden? I can’t compare to your Huake Institute’s Spiritual Power Orchard, built with the power of an entire nation," Loch, upon hearing she was from the Huake Institute, had nothing nice to say. He inspected Xiao Xian from head to toe, cursing Michael silently.
Usually, Michael seed clever. How did he end up sending a small spy from the Huake Institute to help him? Huake Institute has been on a rapid upward trend in recent years, having produced several patented technologies just in crop cultivation.
Loch pondered whether to keep Xiao Xian to assist him. He was working on a very confidential project that even the headquarters of ngshan Company hadn’t heard about yet, and completing it was a necessity.
Ever since his last assistant was hospitalized, the research center had fallen into chaos. There was no one to prune the plants or apply various growth liquids, especially with his most recent concern having no one to oversee it. Since she was an exchange student, she should likely be a different cultivator.
If she is a different cultivator, she should be resilient, able to withstand hardships, and nurous tasks, right? With such a strange thought, Professor Loch cleared his throat and put on a sowhat kind face: "Are you the exchange student from the Chinese delegation? Now that you’re here, help tidy up a bit. I need to go out for a while. Rember, the darkroom in the innermost part is off-limits," Loch decided to keep Xiao Xian mainly because he rembered sothing.
He had forgotten about the existence of exchange students. An international exchange student, and seemingly one quite familiar with plant attributes as a Spirit Plant student.
Since she was an exchange student, it ant she had to watch her step around him.
Most importantly, for the next few months, he wouldn’t have to spend a penny to have a free assistant.
She would dare not disobey, could not resign or complain, an absolute assistant. Even so, he wouldn’t hold back and, in the end, would still provide a "thrilling" assessnt report.
Who made him the well-known difficult-to-please Dr. Loch in the research world?
This ti, he would do Aisha a favor by removing a competitor for her in advance. Loch snickered, leaving the long-neglected research center with just Xiao Xian behind.
