Chapter 469: Chapter 469: Shi Ya

Yunding Star.

At nightfall, lights twinkled warmly in every ho across the planet, yet the sky above the heavily-guarded Macken Laboratory was pitch black. On the nineteenth floor underground, Shi Ya’s face was cold as she looked at the flamboyantly dressed woman across from her, her dark eyes were as deep and still as water.

Dina raised her eyebrows, hands on hips, "Assistant Shi, are you sure you’ve handed over all your work? Really, without holding anything back?"

Shi Ya’s chilly gaze shifted upwards, and after a few seconds rested on Dina’s eyes. Then, curling the corner of her lips slightly, her tone steady and flat, "The sa question, this is the fourth ti you have challenged

today. Are you not confident in your own comprehension? Or are you worried that you are not capable enough to take over my work? What do you think I could hide? What could I keep back? Or..."

Shi Ya abruptly stopped, suddenly stood up, and leaned a few inches closer to Dina, her eyes flashing with an icy and bone-chilling chill, "Or— to put it bluntly, you couldn’t even understand an answer I’ve repeated three tis, should I suggest you get a new brain instead?"

Dina’s mouth stiffened, and just as she was about to curse out loud, the coldness in Shi Ya’s eyes made her suddenly feel a chill over her whole body...

In that mont, the normally inconspicuous Shi Ya transford into an unsheathed sharp sword, her presence overwhelming like a rainbow, pressing Dina so hard she couldn’t catch her breath!

Dina’s pupils contracted slightly:

This person, Shi Ya, who usually wouldn’t utter a word more than necessary, would not add a third word if two could suffice. She always seed like an average researcher, seemingly disinterested in anything beyond cha research...

Over the past two months, Dina had made many underhanded moves in secret. On a few occasions, she directly bullied Shi Ya, but Shi Ya didn’t react at all, which emboldened Dina. Relying on Professor McKin’s favoritism, she even cultivated the ambition to seize the new cha project from Shi Ya’s hands.

And she had succeeded, much to her delight.

At the sa ti, Dina’s contempt for Shi Ya grew even more!

With such a soft and weak character, she deserved to be bullied!

But—

Was this formidable Shi Ya really the sa person Dina rembered?

Dina felt overwheld, but recalling the backing of Professor McKin, her pride swelled. However, she still took a step back before imdiately speaking loudly, "Shi Ya! What are you trying to do? This is a command from Professor McKin. Are you planning to resist? I now have reason to suspect that you’ve hidden key data and haven’t handed it over!"

Upon saying this, Dina regained her confidence!

After all, it wasn’t her who was turned away ignominiously, it was this woman called Shi Ya! So, what did she have to fear?

With this thought, Dina’s arrogance grew stronger, and she spoke haughtily, "Hand it over imdiately, or—"

"Or what?" Shi Ya asked calmly, showing no fear. On the contrary, she suddenly took a step forward, closing in on Dina, word by word, "Dina, do you think with the title of project manager, you can rest easy? Or—"

Shi Ya paused, her gaze coldly sweeping over Dina, before speaking icily, "Or do you think with your figure and looks, you can keep receiving Professor McKin’s favor? Tch—"

"You managed to stay comfortably by Professor McKin’s side for three years! That is your true competence," Shi Ya said, her tone dripping with disdain.

Dina’s face stiffened, "Shi Ya! No matter what, I am stronger than soone who’s been kicked out the door like you!"

Shi Ya arched an eyebrow, replying indifferently, "You took my project, and you know full well what you’re relying on. Do you really think I can’t take it back? Just an A-level spiritual power, if I were A-level right now, do you believe Professor McKin would imdiately hand the project back to ?"

Dina opened her mouth, "You...
