Chapter 2063
2063 Aren’t You Afraid of Offending the Xie Family Behind Her?
However, the girl did not move at all, as if she was not affected by her words. “I don’t know if everyone got in through the back door like me, but in First Research Institute, is there really a difference between a person’s background and coming through the back door? Do you dare to say that you only relied on your own ability to enter the level 8 laboratory? It has nothing to do with your surname?”
Her tone was casual.
Xie Xinyao’s expression suddenly changed. Two icicle-like gazes shot at Qiao Nian, wishing she could stab a hole in her.
“Qiao Nian, do you know what you’re talking about?” After her anger subsided, her usual domineering expression was restrained, revealing a mocking expression, as if she was watching an ant trying to move an elephant. “Do you think that since you know a few people, you can run amok in the Independent Continent just because the director personally pleaded for you, allowing you to enter the Level 8 laboratory?
“You’d better remember what you just said. You’ll regret it!”
As for why Qiao Nian would regret it, Xie Xinyao did not say it explicitly.
However, everyone in the Level 8 laboratory had seen their argument.
Xie Xinyao was clearly using the power of the three families of the Independent Continent to warn and threaten Qiao Nian!
Cao Yanhua was just about to smooth things over.
However, Xie Xinyao’s expression made him pause. She quickly picked up the folder that had fallen on the experiment table and turned to leave. “I’ll give the experiment data to the teacher.”
“Junior Xie…”
Cao Yanhua’s outstretched hand missed. He could only watch her leave.
After Xie Xinyao left, the others in the laboratory did not dare to congratulate Qiao Nian. All of them quickly found something to do, ostracizing Qiao Nian from their circle.
Only Han Cheng walked over and said to the girl with a smile, “Congratulations.”
Qiao Nian pressed her baseball cap, her eyes cold and dry. “Thank you.”
Seeing her cool act, Han Cheng could not help but ask her, “Aren’t you afraid of offending the Xie family behind her?”
Who was he referring to?
It went without saying.
Qiao Nian shrugged nonchalantly and said arrogantly, “I’ve already offended one family, anyway. One more won’t make a difference. Besides, I’m just telling the truth.”
“…”
This…
Han Cheng was speechless.
The First Research Institute was indeed not as glamorous and fair as it looked on the surface. Here, injustice and ostracization were everywhere.
Disciples with strong backing like Xie Xinyao and Ji Ziyin had many more opportunities than ordinary people.
Xie Xinyao entering the Level 8 laboratory was indeed not entirely based on her strength.
That was more or less related to her family’s power.
However, Xie Xinyao was mad at Qiao Nian this time. Han Cheng knew well that Xie Xinyao’s anger was not only because Qiao Nian had parachuted in, but also because their privileges had been bypassed.
Someone else had used privileges to a greater extent than they did.
This was the key to Xie Xinyao’s anger.
Han Cheng’s gaze became much gentler as he looked at the girl. He only said, “The three families have deep roots in the Independent Continent. It’s very easy for you to suffer if you offend her. You have to be careful.”
Qiao Nian did not expect him to remind her so kindly. She nodded slightly and acknowledged his kindness.
Cao Yanhua also reacted at this moment. He frowned, his dark face filled with seriousness, and reminded her, “Qiao Nian, you can follow me. I’ll try my best to help you block her.”
