Chapter 1114: Chapter 1114 Blocked
Over the past few days, Professor Wilson had grown increasingly fond of Luo Qiao, the Chinese exchange student. No matter what task she was given, she completed it accurately and quickly, always managing to surprise everyone.
However, this caused so dissatisfaction among the students in the lab who had long wanted to be ntored by Professor Wilson. They started showing hostility toward Luo Qiao and even tried to use their seniority to suppress her.
But after several confrontations, they could do nothing against Luo Qiao, and all this was observed by Professor Wilson, further solidifying his decision.
That day, as she left school and was about to go to the Jun family’s office, she was stopped not far from campus by those seniors in the lab who disliked her, and behind them, five or six thugs appeared.
Luo Qiao transferred her portable music player from her pocket to her bag, inserting a blank cassette, then turned on the record button.
As the group approached her, Luo Qiao greeted them with unaffected politeness.
One of the seniors, Emma, stepped forward, “Either withdraw from Professor Wilson’s lab or get back to China.”
Luo Qiao responded with a mocking look, “What right do you have to ask to leave the lab, or order to go back to China?”
Seeing that Luo Qiao showed no fear, Emma gestured backward, and the thugs, whistling, started walking over, “Pretty Eastern girl, you’re really beautiful.”
Emma mocked, “There’s a saying back ho, ‘If you don’t drink the toast, you drink the penalty.’ You’ve brought this on yourself today.”
Luo Qiao spoke calmly, “Aren’t you worried that the school might find out and punish you?”
Emma shrugged disdainfully, “Was anyone watching? Even if you tell on , who would believe you without any evidence?” She then laughed arrogantly.
Luo Qiao turned to the other seniors, “Thomas, Steven, Madeline, did you co here with Emma? Is this what you think as well?”
The three of them remained silent.
Luo Qiao asked again, “Answer , are you cowards, doing deeds but too scared to own up, using Emma as a scapegoat?”
Steven finally spoke, “I’ve wanted Professor Wilson as my ntor for a long ti. I had hope, but ever since you arrived, it’s never been the sa. You’ve stolen all the attention from Professor Wilson, so you better take Emma’s advice and leave the lab.”
Luo Qiao replied coolly, “Steven, you really overestimate yourself. Blaming for your incompetence is contemptible.”
Steven beca heated, “This is Boston, Arica, not China. If you want to be harassed every day, I don’t mind.”
Luo Qiao’s face turned cold, “You really are shaless.”
Thomas, seeing Luo Qiao was not mincing her words, told Steven, “Stop wasting words with her.”
Luo Qiao looked at Thomas, “Thomas, if I’m not mistaken, they ca looking for trouble at your instigation, didn’t they? You’re really sothing.”
Thomas beca flustered, “Don’t talk nonsense, this has nothing to do with .”
Luo Qiao scorned,” ‘Nothing to do with you,’ ans if sothing happens, they take the fall, and you share no responsibility, right?”
At this point, Steven and Emma looked at him, his face reddened and he snapped at Luo Qiao, “Don’t stir up trouble here; we’re friends.”
Luo Qiao mocked, “Friends, yet they are still being used by you.”
Madeline, who had been quiet at the back, was also a scher like Thomas. Through her interactions over the past few days, Luo Qiao knew Madeline to be a manipulative type.
Luo Qiao looked at Madeline with a smirk, “And you, Madeline, what role do you play in this? Perhaps always talking behind my back to Emma, and then getting her to find people to deal with .
Just like Thomas, you want to use others to drive away and reap the benefits. Isn’t that correct?”
Madeline, slightly annoyed, replied, “You stole Professor Wilson’s attention, that’s a fact. There’s no need to sow discord among us.”
Luo Qiao nodded, “Why would I steal Professor Wilson’s attention? Because I am excellent, that’s a fact. But what are you doing now?”
