Chapter 628: Chapter 391: When One Man Attains the Tao, Even His Pets Ascend to Heaven; The Superiors Chapter 628: Chapter 391: When One Man Attains the Tao, Even His Pets Ascend to Heaven; The Superiors Wang Lei didn’t dare to ask; not even his advisor dared to do more than stand with crossed hands in front, nodding slightly in continual respect, no different from a lackey.
But judging by appearances, this “leader” was quite young.
Even though he was wearing a mask, goggles, and a protective suit, you could still tell from the skin visible on his forehead and his build.
He couldn’t pay attention to whatever the academician was saying, instead staring with fervent eyes at the “leader,” wondering when he could beco soone like that.
With a vice-chancellor for company, the academician explaining, and a whole host of university leaders in attendance, the display of prestige was maxed out.
If he beca that kind of person, would junior Chen Xinyu’s attitude towards still be so cold?
Wang Lei clenched his fists slightly, a fighting spirit suddenly flaring up in his heart; he just wanted to go back to the company and work hard right away!
During the academician’s explanation, Shen Yuan was getting a bit of a headache. Being from a second-tier university and not a dical student, it was quite challenging for him to grasp these academic matters.
Books are a treasure at tis like this.
Shen Yuan only rembered the difficulties ntioned by the academician, naly the funding difficulties encountered in project developnt. It was not a small sum, and the research cycle was long, requiring a steady stream of financial support.
As Academician Zhang said, the project was currently in the “preclinical research” phase of “in vitro testing” and needed to go through “animal testing” and then 6-7 years of clinical trial before it could be released.
dical research cycles are generally lengthy. From the beginning of developnt to final market release, it takes around ten years, and they had only passed one-third of the way.
Academician Zhang said this was the most challenging phase, his words full of sincerity. Shen Yuan thought to himself, if it weren’t for having a generous ‘daddy,’ I wouldn’t be able to sponsor such a project.
After the discussion, Wei Zhuo and Academician Zhang led Shen Yuan to take off their protective suits and masks and leave the laboratory.
At that mont, Wang Lei finally got a clear view of his face, thinking to himself that not only was this guy young, but he was also sowhat handso.
Whether I can work my way up to this level in the future is uncertain, but I can’t compete in terms of looks, can I? Surely I can’t go for plastic surgery in Korea?
“Mr. Shen, it’s almost lunchti. I’ll host lunch for you at a restaurant. Please do grace us with your presence.”
Wei Zhuo said with a smile.
“Let’s not go out. I’ve heard that the cafeteria at Nanzhong University is quite good. Let’s just eat at the cafeteria.”
Shen Yuan recalled Shen Xuan saying how good and diverse the cafeteria at Nanzhong was, much better than the high school’s by countless tis.
Wei Zhuo demurred a couple of tis but eventually followed Shen Yuan’s wish, and the group escorted Shen Yuan towards the cafeteria.
“How wealthy must one be… to receive such treatnt?”
Walking at the back, Wang Lei wondered to himself, you need at least several billion in wealth, right? Otherwise, how could you sponsor such research projects?
Nanzhong University has several cafeterias, the largest being Cafeteria One, which is also the cafeteria where Shen Xuan and Chen Xinyu had milk tea.
The first floor of Cafeteria One is a dining hall for students, while the second floor has a staff cafeteria open only to teachers. The dishes are the sa as on the first floor, just fewer people and quieter.
Watching the group ascend the staircase to the second floor, Wang Lei felt particularly regretful. What a feather in his cap it would have been, had he been able to go up there with them and be seen by so many juniors.
Too bad he was just a spectator and lackey, not a faculty mber, not even qualified to go up.
Looking around, he noticed that Chen Xinyu and another junior nad Shen Xuan were still there, so he approached them again.
“Juniors, have you had your lunch? How about I treat you? I’ve recharged my al card too much, help use so of it up.”
Wang Lei said cheerfully.
Chen Xinyu originally wanted to refuse, but Shen Xuan thought that since it was boring anyway, it might be interesting to listen to this senior boast.
“Then we’ll thank you, senior.”
“Great, do you want to eat now, or wait a while?”
It was 11:40, and so dishes had not yet been served.
“Let’s wait a bit; I’m not very hungry,” Shen Xuan replied.
Wang Lei naturally took a seat, proudly giving himself a thumbs-up for his quick thinking.
The textbook thod to approach girls, you all should take a leaf from my book!
“Just now, in the anti-tumor nanoparticle drug research lab with my advisor, Academician Zhang was responsible for this research project and explained the whole significance to us. In the future, treatnt for cancer patients will be much more efficient.”
Wang Lei started the conversation with a subtle brag, making it sound as if he was a participant in the project.
“See that group over there? Vice Chancellor Wei, Academician Zhang, they’re all inside, but did you notice? They’re not the main characters, it’s the person in the middle of them. Do you know who that person is?”
Shen Xuan hadn’t really looked. A bunch of greasy middle-aged n wasn’t all that attractive, and she simply responded nonchalantly, “Oh, so crappy leader coming for an inspection, right? That’s the guy who made get up an hour early to clean up.”
Wang Lei’s eyelid twitched: “Junior, keep it down a bit, this is an important guest of the school, the leaders all take it very seriously.”
Wang Lei was going to answer his own question and properly introduce the guest’s identity, aiming to impress his juniors with his connections.
In his eyes, knowing a powerful person sohow made him feel a bit powerful too.
“He is the major shareholder of Mu dical, and in Star City, he owns a Health Managent Company, with 3 gyms, 1 physical examination center, and several yoga studios under its na.”
After speaking, Wang Lei quietly awaited their reaction, but the girls stayed silent for a while.
Co on, it’s really awkward performing a monologue. Would you two sisters at least give so response?
Shen Xuan adjusted her glasses, glanced up at the second-floor cafeteria, noticing the person in the middle and her brows furrowed as if in thought.
