Xue Lin had just been bullied by Shang Jin and was feeling unhappy. Now, Cheng Hu came to teach her a lesson. Was she that easy to bully?
âKick me out of your group if you have the ability.â Xue Lin threatened Cheng Hu with the money, âDonât think that youâre a big shot just because youâve made some achievements. If 1 didnât provide the money, would those experiments have been carried out?â
Money was Cheng Huâs weakness. 70% of his experiment funding came from Xue Lin. It would not do him any good to offend Xue Lin. Originally, he wanted to kick Xue Lin out after getting the cooperation with the Tao family, but now it seemed that he had to endure for a while.
Xue Lin said sarcastically, âWhy donât you take a look at yourself? Do you think a poor kid who crawled out of a poor mountain can afford to do all these experiments? Let me tell you, if you still want me to provide you with funds, then listen to me obediently. If I want you to be the team leader, you can be the team leader. If I donât want you to be the team leader, then get lost from your position.â
Hu Chengâs family was very poor. He took a loan to go to university. After he was admitted to graduate school, he joined a research group and slowly paid off the money. He hated it when people called him a poor kid. He felt that it hurt his self-esteem.
âWho are you calling a poor kid?â Hu Cheng was furious. âYou dare say that again?â
Xue Lin was also angry, âYouâre the poor kid that Iâm referring to! When I joined the research team, you borrowed 10,000 from me. When you returned me half of it, I told you to keep the rest of it because you were my team leader but now, I think you should really pay me back!â
The members of the group were watching them quarrel. In their memory, this was the first time Cheng Hu and Xue Lin had quarreled. Usually, Xue Lin was the one who lectured others. This was the first time she saw Cheng Hu so angry.
Although Hu Cheng looked like a nice person on the surface, he was not a good person. He always stole the credit from others. The team member who had been robbed by him muttered, â1 thought the research funding was applied for by the team leader. 1 didnât expect it to be Leader Linâs money. Then why is Team Leader Hu still so arrogant?â
Another person said, âA grown man actually owes a little girl money. If I were Team Leader Hu, I would be too embarrassed to stay in the laboratory.â
Seeing that everyone was on her side, Xue Lin was very happy. She continued to provoke Cheng Hu, âLeader Hu, when do you plan to pay back the money?â âIâll pay you back!â Hu Cheng clenched his fists and whispered, â1â11 pay you back now!â He punched Xue Lin, wanting to teach her a lesson.
Xue Lin was not easy to deal with. She realized that Cheng Hu was going to hit her, so she quickly ran to the side and threw the things in the laboratory as she ran.
Not only did the team members not stop the fight, but they also cheered on them to make them fight harder.
For a moment, Hu Chengâs laboratory was in chaos. There were sounds of smashing things and cheers.
Tan Rou had a class at four in the afternoon, so she had to leave early. As soon as she went out, she heard the sound of things crashing onto the ground. So, she thought that it was the laboratory being renovated.
After a while, Xue Lin ran out of the lab. She shouted as she ran, âMurder! Team Leader Hu is going to kill me!â
Tan Rou leaned against the wall, not wanting to care about this matter.
Xue Lin ran to the stairs and ran down. The whole building could hear her shouting.
Cheng Hu didnât chase after her. He didnât even slap Xue Lin. He just wanted to scare her so that she would stop talking. He didnât expect Xue Lin to go crazy and smash things in the lab. She even said that she was going to tell the principal. He wanted to stop Xue Lin, but she ran too fast and he couldnât catch up.
âWhat happened?â Jiang Min and the others also came out. âWhy did I hear someone say that they killed someone?â
âItâs Cheng Hu and Xue Lin,â Tan Rou said scornfully. âThey probably couldnât decide who the credit should go to. Theyâre fighting among themselves.â
Jiang Min frowned. She reminded Tan Rou, âRourou, I donât know how Hu Chengâs project is going, but 1 donât think Hu Cheng is very reliable. If your family wants to cooperate with them, you have to think twice.â
Tan Rou smiled. âSenior, donât worry. 1 wonât help them contact my brother. Our family wouldnât work with people who fight amongst themselves.
âIf it were me, I wouldnât dare to cooperate with them either,â Jiang Min smiled and whispered..
