Xue Lin didnât care about her experiment. She only cared about her reputation. If she was kicked out of the research group by Cheng Hu, how would she face the other students in the future?
Only three people in their class had entered the research team. Xue Lin would mention her experiments every time she went to class. If she was really kicked out, she would have no right to brag.
Xue Lin thought for a long time at the door and finally decided to call Tan Rou out. Tan Rou had an experiment today and she saw Tan Rou enter the laboratory, so Tan Rou must be in the laboratory now.
Jiang Min came to open the door again. She saw Xue Lin and was glad that she was the one who opened the door today. If Shang Jin came to open the door, he would probably slam the door in Xue Linâs face.
âXue Lin, whatâs the matter?â What was there to talk about between Jiang Min and Xue Lin? They were both working on the same floor, so she didnât want to make their relationship so tense.
âIs Junior Tan Rou here?â Xue Lin asked softly.
Shang Jin walked over after hearing that. Seeing that it was Xue Lin, she was in the mood to scold, âI was wondering who it was. So itâs an annoying fly! Why arenât you the second-in-command of your research team? Why are you here? Are you trying to steal our secrets?â
Xue Lin and Shang Jin were like fireworks. They would explode at the sight of each other. When she heard Shang Jin talking about her like this, she scolded, âIs it worth it for me to steal your secrets? The paper you use for calculations isnât even worthy of wiping my shoes!â
âIs your family that poor?â Shang Jin asked.
âCanât you even afford the paper to clean your shoes?â
Xue Lin couldnât win against Shang Jin and could only stare at him.
Tan Rou heard that Xue Lin was here for her, so she came back with milk tea. âSenior Lin, are you here to quarrel with me?â
The first thing Xue Lin saw was Tan Rou. The second thing she saw was the milk tea in Tan Ronâs hand. She knew that dessert shop. It was a very famous offline shop in the capital. They never offer delivery but Tan Rou was carrying milk tea now. She couldnât have gone to buy it herself, could she?
Shang Jin voiced Xue Linâs question, âI thought this dessert shop doesnât do delivery?â
Tan Rou said, âIt doesnât affect me. This dessert shop is owned by my relative.
It doesnât deliver food to the public but it does deliver food to us.â
Moreover, it was delivered by car. The iced milk tea was placed in the carâs refrigerator. It was still cold when it arrived here.
Xue Lin really liked the things in this shop, but it was too far away. She could only go there during the holidays. However, she had been busy with experiments and had no time to buy anything.
She hoped that Tan Rou would share a cup with her.
Tan Rou divided the milk tea. There were a total of five cups of milk tea and five portions of cold snacks. They each had just enough. There was nothing extra.
âSenior Lin, why are you looking for me?â Tan Rou noticed Xue Linâs gaze. She smiled and said, âYou heard that I bought milk tea and wanted one too?â
Xue Lin really wanted to ask Tan Rou for a cup, but she didnât say that she wanted to drink too.
âJunior Tan Rou, Iâm looking for you today to talk to you about our research teamâs new project.â Xue Lin said seriously, âOur new project is an interesting one. If we cooperate with the Tao familyâs company, we will definitely make a fortune!â
âCanât our family make a fortune by cooperating with other families?â Tan Rou asked.
Xue Lin suddenly had a sense of crisis. Did the Tao familyâs company already have a partner similar to their project? No! She couldnât let that happen.
âJunior Tan Rou, please help me! 1 know the Tao family doesnât need this project,â Xue Lin said pitifully. âBut we really need the opportunity to work with the Tao family and if 1 canât convince you, our team leader will kick me out of the research team!â
âHu Cheng wants to chase you out? âShang Jin was a little surprised.
âDidnât you pay for his research team? If he chases you out, where will he get the funds for his experiments in the future?â
Compared to Xue Lin, Shang Jin hated Cheng Hu more. Cheng Hu was a hypocritical and selfish man. He had to sign his name on the experiments of his team members, and he claimed most of the credit so that he could get more money..
