1926 The Better Groups Are 1, 3 and 6
In the outdoor café.
Zhou Zhou's chestnut-colored curly hair fell gently on her shoulders, accentuating her fiery red lips. Her peach blossom eyes were also exceptionally charming.
"…The results of the grouping are out now. I'm sorry, Sun. I didn't manage to get a good result for you." She was talking to the girl sitting opposite her.
The girl was playing with her phone, sitting like a big boss. She pressed one hand against the phone screen and then looked up. Under the brim of her cap, her face was exquisite and eye-catching as she said casually, "It's fine."
Qiao Nian placed her phone back on the table and looked at her. "It's true. I didn't take it to heart. Don't take it to heart."
Zhou Zhou heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing that she was telling the truth, and a charming smile appeared on her oval face. Elegantly picking up the coffee cup in front of her, before she drank it, she asked the girl, "Do you want me to report to the research institute with you tomorrow?"
Qiao Nian's phone screen lit up. She glanced at it and saw a new WeChat message. Supporting her chin with her hand, she replied absent-mindedly, "There's no need. I'll go myself. It'll be more eye-catching if you go with me. It's good for a newcomer not to be too eye-catching in case I will be targeted."
"Pfft." Zhou Zhou couldn't help but laugh. She looked at her, suspecting that she was causing trouble. "Big boss, aren't your results eye-catching enough?! I don't think you're afraid at all. There's nothing in this world you're afraid of… I don't believe it…"
She didn't believe her.
She guessed that no one in Black Mandala believed Qiao Nian's words.
These words were too annoying.
A person who had single-handedly founded the Red Alliance and the Black Mandala at such a young age was now sitting here with her legs crossed, telling her that she was afraid of people targeting her… Tsk!
Zhou Zhou smacked her lips, her heart aching. However, she began to tell the girl about some things to take note of at the research institute. "After you report to the research institute tomorrow, there will be a grouping. This grouping is different from the laboratory assignment. This is for people to be divided into a few groups. The few researchers will form a group, and it will be easier to complete some large and complicated experiments."
Qiao Nian raised her eyebrows. She clearly hadn't expected it to be so troublesome to enter the research institute. There was a test and an assignment. After the assignment, there was also the so-called grouping…
Always afraid of trouble, she sounded impatient now. "Can I not work alone?"
"There's no precedent of anyone doing this before." Zhou Zhou's expression softened, and she gently continued, "All newcomers have to do this step. It's just a grouping. It won't be too troublesome. When the time comes, it'll depend on which group you're assigned to. Among the newcomers, the better groups now are Groups 1, 3, and 6. The members of these three groups are relatively outstanding among the newcomers. One of the groups is the most outstanding. It's led by the Ji family, one of the three big families in the Independent Continent. I don't know if you've heard of her… that Ji Ziyin. She's also a student of Gu Hengbo, the person in charge of the Level 5 laboratory."
It was Ji Ziyin again…
Qiao Nian placed her hand on the table and said casually, "I've never heard of her."
She was not interested in the Ji family. She had never heard of them, nor did she want to know!
Qiao Nian's cell phone lit up at this moment.
She picked it up and hung up.
Then, she stood up and said to Zhou Zhou, "I have to report at eight tomorrow morning, right?"
"Yes, eight o'clock." Zhou Zhou nodded.
Qiao Nian picked up her bag, which she had placed on a chair at the side. "Alright, I'll go over at eight tomorrow.
"I have something on today. I'll leave first."
Zhou Zhou didn't have time to ask her out for dinner. She could only watch as Qiao Nian left the café.
