Chapter 153: Chapter 152: Research Institute
“Sister Chi, what’s wrong?” Su Niannian noticed that Chi Gui’s expression was off and asked caringly.
Chi Gui put away her phone and glanced apologetically at everyone, “I’m sorry, sothing urgent ca up, and I might not be able to co back this afternoon.”
Before Liu Yawei could respond, the female teacher frowned and spoke, “Is there anything more urgent than your competition right now? You need to understand, this competition belongs to the team. If you don’t put in the effort, you’ll drag everyone else down!”
Chi Gui ignored her and just looked at Liu Yawei.
Liu Yawei nodded, “Then you go, rember to call if there’s anything.”
Su Niannian, Chu Jia, and Yi Rui also said, “Sister Chi, it’s okay, your matter is important.”
Chi Gui: “Thank you.”
She put away her phone and walked out of the hotel.
At the entrance, a taxi seed to have been waiting there all along, slowly approached as Chi Gui ca out.
Chi Gui got into the car and quickly left.
The female teacher looked speechlessly at Liu Yawei and shook her head, “Mr. Liu, you casually let a student leave during a competition, which is extrely irresponsible. If sothing happens to her, can you bear the responsibility?”
If it had been before lunch, Liu Yawei would have been a bit worried.
But now…
He chuckled, “No worries, with the protection of the Han Family in Capital City, it would be a miracle if anything happened to her.”
The female teacher glanced again at Su Niannian and the others, seeing that they also seed unconcerned, she couldn’t help but shake her head.
These people had never been to Capital City, they actually thought it was as safe as they imagined.
As for the competition…
On her way back, she had heard from Chi Yan about the general situation of Su Niannian and the others, plus with Chi Gui being so irresponsible, she really didn’t expect them to win any positions.
It was simply a waste of school resources on a trip.
The female teacher thought disdainfully in her heart, turned to greet Chi Yan and the others, hardly even deigning to glance at Su Niannian and her group.
–
On the outskirts of Capital City.
A secluded and heavily guarded research institute.
The taxi slowly stopped at the entrance.
Ard soldiers carrying guns ca out, saw it was just an ordinary taxi, and frowned about to speak when they noticed the special pass displayed in front of the car window. Their expressions instantly changed to grave and respectful as they saluted the vehicle and let it through.
The taxi continued deep into the research institute and slowly stopped.
Before the car completely halted, Chi Gui had already pushed open the car door, stepped out, and briskly walked into the institute.
“Professor Chi…” The driver was startled, hurriedly parked the car, but was stopped at the entrance.
The driver was puzzled.
He had seen the glass doors automatically open as Chi Gui approached, assuming it was a motion sensor. Now at the entrance, he realized it required iris recognition to open.
Inside the institute, including Xu Wen, a dozen staff mbers all obediently lined up, heads bowed, hands nervously clasped in front of them.
Through the glass door, the driver recognized so who were respected as “masters of dicine” outside, now facing Chi Gui, each looking like a schoolchild who had erred.
“What’s going on?” Chi Gui walked up to them, her dark almond-shaped eyes calmly staring at the dozen people, she asked in a deep voice.
Her slender petite figure faced several tall individuals over six feet, yet her presence subdued everyone.
The dozen people looked at each other, none daring to speak first.
Chi Gui’s slender fingers lightly tapped on the table, pointing, “Xu Wen, you speak.”
“Ah? I…” Xu Wen imdiately grimaced.
The consequences of this matter were severe, and it was sowhat related to their negligence, hence no one dared to speak.
But having been nad by Professor Chi, Xu Wen had no choice but to speak up—
