When Pei Yao saw Chi Jiao’s cautious expression, she couldn’t help but laugh as she reached out to caress the top of her head. “Of course not. However, I have to advise you. Try your best not to let anyone else know about this medicine in the future, okay?”
This young lady looked very innocent.
She probably didn’t know that the medicine she had developed contained the same essential composition used to develop the weapons used by 117 Special Forces.
Chi Jiao nodded obediently.
“Oh, right. How long did it take you to come up with this medicine?” Pei Yao asked again.
Chi Jiao thought for a moment and looked at her tentatively. “Ten days.”
Actually, it was five days. Ten days would make it seem more low-key.
Pei Yao was stunned.
She should really go to their organization’s laboratory and show those arrogant fellows who claimed to be geniuses what a real genius was!
What they spent three years researching was done in 10 days by a high school student!
Calling Jiaojiao a genius was an understatement!
Pei Yao looked at Chi Jiao as if she was looking at a treasure trove. “Jiaojiao, are you interested in working for the 117 Special Forces? The job is interesting and the salary is high. The main point is that we have many good-looking and talented men there.”
The corners of Chi Jiao’s lips twitched slightly. She felt that Pei Yao’s current demeanor was very similar to a wolf trying to coax the Little Red Riding Hood.
“I haven’t considered what I want to do in the future,” Chi Jiao said.
“Then, you can consider it. We, at 117, will always open our doors to you,” Pei Yao said with a smile.
A genius like Little Jiaojiao had limitless prospects in the future. Even if 117 didn’t recruit her, other ZF organizations would want to recruit her.
Pei Yao felt that Chi Jiao seemed to be in a good state and did not seem shocked.
Therefore, she chatted with her for a while longer and promised her that they would have a meal together if they were free in the future, before leaving.
…
The next day, Chi Jiao received a call from Quan Jue early in the morning.
He had just heard from the person in charge of protecting him that the Esper who attacked them had been caught.
He asked for the details and found out that it was the girl called Zou Xingxing from Chi Jiao’s class. Moreover, she was caught when she went to look for Jiaojiao last night.
Quan Jue broke out in a cold sweat.
This was the first time he had broken out in a cold sweat because of worry and fear.
Therefore, he came to Chi Jiao’s house as quickly as possible and asked her to come out.
After Chi Jiao hung up the phone, she didn’t even have the chance to change out of her pajamas. She got off the bed and dashed out of the room.
Just as she ran out of the house, Chi Jiao saw Quan Jue walking briskly towards her.
Immediately after, she was harshly pulled into the young man’s embrace.
With her face pressed against his chest, Chi Jiao could hear his rapid heartbeat.
“Why didn’t you contact me when Zou Xingxing came to find you last night?” The young man’s voice was a little hoarse.
“It was an emergency at the time, and it was late by the time it was resolved,” Chi Jiao said softly.
Just as she said that, her butt was pinched gently by a large hand.
Chi Jiao’s face turned red instantly as she looked up at him in disbelief. “Brother Quan, you…”
He actually pinched her butt?!
In all her life, no one had dared to lay their hands on her butt…
“You’re not obedient.” Quan Jue leaned toward her ear and whispered, “If you’re not obedient, you’ll have to accept your punishment.”
