Chapter 576: Chapter 576: She’s Not a Mad Scientist Chapter 576: Chapter 576: She’s Not a Mad Scientist On the other end, it appeared that the leader of Fla Alliance hadn’t gotten out of bed yet, his voice hoarse with sleep, “Calling at this hour, do you want to teach you a lesson?”
“The information?” Li Qiao was concise.
The leader of the Fla Alliance instantly beca alert.
He chuckled with malice, “Co to Scarlet City and I’ll give it to you.”
Li Qiao didn’t speak, still holding her phone with composed indifference.
Ti passed by, one second, two seconds, three seconds…
The other party couldn’t hold out any longer, sounding quite aggrieved, “I’ve sent it to your email.”
“Hmm.”
Li Qiao hung up, picked up a spare laptop from the corner of the desk, and logged into her email as soon as the computer booted up.
Shortly after, twenty-three pages of information were printed out.
Li Qiao took them into her hands and flipped through them casually, at page eighteen, she saw the na of Huoli Factory.
Just as she suspected, an overseas manufacturing industry owned by the Charlman family.
Xi Luo had returned to her desk and was looking at Li Qiao with an ‘I knew it’ expression.
She bent her finger to tap on the desk, “Kid, what kind of riddle are you trying to play?”
Li Qiao’s gaze was still fixed on the industry directory, her lips slowly curving up.
She looked up at Xi Luo, “Do you want to co-manage a fund company with you?”
“No,” Xi Luo waved a finger dismissively, “I think…
that might be a fantasy of mine.”
What she thought was inconsequential.
This child had too many ideas, unless she was willing, no one could influence her decisions.
Upon hearing this, Li Qiao tossed the industry directory into the shredder in the corner of the wall, “Then I shall grant your wish.”
Xi Luo was surprisingly taken aback, “Really?”
“Starting next month, I’m with you,” Li Qiao said lightly.
Xi Luo, a few years older, felt it wasn’t that simple, “Have you really thought this through?
You really want to start venturing into the financial industry?”
“Not just that,” Li Qiao watched the snowflake-like shreds of paper in the shredder, her lips curling slightly.
All the industries listed in that directory, she wanted to delve into them all.
She had been planning for so long, leaving the research institute, and it wasn’t just to take it easy.
Everyone thought Xiao Yehui was still biding his ti, but in fact, he had already made his move.
Li Qiao didn’t linger in Xi Luo’s office too long, ready to leave before ten in the morning.
Xi Luo walked beside her, still slightly dazed.
She stood at the front door, hooked Li Qiao’s shoulder and tugged lightly, “You weren’t joking just now, were you?”
Li Qiao looked at her with clear eyes, shrugged off her hand, and tugged at her lip, “I’m off.”
Xi Luo watched her leave, her gaze gradually reflecting a rich vibrancy.
The kid was finally stepping out of ‘stealth mode.’ The future was full of promise.
…
Five minutes later, Li Qiao appeared at the base of the Yan Emperor’s headquarters building.
She strolled leisurely into the lobby and before entering the elevator, she sent a ssage to Shang Yu on WeChat.
Confirming he was at the company, Li Qiao headed to the top floor.
In the executive office, the phone on the desk rang just as she was about to walk in.
The man saw the caller ID and picked up the phone just in ti to hear the knock at the door.
Li Qiao walked in as the voice of Zuo Xuan, respectful, ca through the handset, “Hall Master, the assessnt for the Second Hall is ready; the Second Hall Master will be waiting in the Secret Hall by Wednesday.”
Shang Yu put down the phone, his eyebrows lifted as he watched Li Qiao sit down in the resting area, “Why aren’t you at work?”
Li Qiao casually picked up a pillow, hugged it, and swung one leg over the other, “I’m not going anymore.”
Hearing the voice, the man’s deep brows and eyes revealed a smile.
He closed the docunt in his hand, leaned back in his chair, and appraised Li Qiao from across the short distance, “What’s the matter, feeling wronged or don’t want to do research anymore?”
It was a field she loved and was interested in.
Quitting halfway was not in line with her consistent style.
At this mont, Li Qiao stroked the leather pillow, the sunlight outside the window reflecting in her eyes, shining brightly, “I’m not wronged, and I will continue with the research, just no longer at the research institute.”
Shang Yu narrowed his eyes, stood up with his hands braced on the desk and walked steadily towards her.
The man sat down beside her and tilted his head to look at her calm cheeks.
She was never capricious, carrying through with things from beginning to end, with every step taken after careful consideration.
But suddenly not going to the research institute for work, there must have been so turning point.
Li Qiao looked into Shang Yu’s unfathomable eyes and smiled as she explained, “Doing research can be done anywhere, it doesn’t have to be at the research institute.”
“That’s also good.” The man twirled a lock of hair by her cheek around his finger, “If you don’t like the research institute, then don’t go.
I’ll have Liuyun build a lab for you in the mansion, so you can do research at ho whenever you want.”
Li Qiao: “…”
There really was no need for that.
She wiped her face and nudged Shang Yu with her elbow, “There’s no need.
If I really need to do research, I’ll just go to Renhe.
What’s more, I will have more free ti in the future, which is perfect for spending more ti with you.
There’s no reason to still be doing experints at ho.”
She wasn’t a research maniac.
Hearing this, Shang Yu’s thin lips curved up into a slight smile, “Freeing up ti to be with , is that your compensation?”
Li Qiao swallowed, he really was still thinking about that.
She put down the pillow and raised her eyebrows in a mysteriously teasing manner, “That doesn’t count.
As for the compensation, I’ll give it to you when I get it.”
The man leaned against the sofa, his deep eyes dark like ink, and the corners of his lips also raised slightly, “Since that’s the case, why don’t I take so interest first?”
“What interest?” Li Qiao asked puzzledly, before certain images flashed through her mind.
It couldn’t be…
Before she could continue speaking, Shang Yu’s warm palm had already caught the back of her head, pulling her against his chest, his voice carrying a rough texture as he whispered in her ear, “The cheongsam will be delivered tonight.”
Indeed, just as expected!
Li Qiao instantly felt her whole body heat up.
She knew all too well the look in his eyes when he saw her in that cheongsam-style long dress on the day of their engagent banquet.
It was extrely aggressive.
Li Qiao turned her face away, looking elsewhere, with a vague sense of foreboding.
The man seed to see through her little ploys, his eyes tinged with a thin smile, effortlessly changing the subject, “Do you want to continue with the Second Hall’s assessnt?”
Li Qiao composed herself and turned back, “When?”
She had just participated in the First Hall’s assessnt yesterday.
Was the second one already arranged so quickly?
“Tomorrow or the day after.”
At that, Li Qiao “oh”ed, “Okay, I’m free anyway.
What does the Second Hall’s assessnt involve?”
Shang Yu’s palm on the back of her neck gave a light squeeze, “Your strong suit.”
With a brief explanation from the man, Li Qiao’s indifferent expression finally showed a bit of interest.
It turned out to be shooting and assembly.
Li Qiao, rarely enthused, asked again, “What does the Second Hall handle?”
“Firearms manufacturing.” Shang Yu’s tone was light as a cloud.
Li Qiao curved her lips, “Is the factory in the country?”
“In Parma.” The man responded to her every question, “Aside from the necessary parts and machinery, it mainly supplies the Parma Military’s needs.”
