He was the first to break the deadlock in the conference room. He straightened his suit and sat on the chair boldly. He placed his arm on the conference table and emphasized again, “I don’t care what evidence they provide. The information could always have been forged after. In short, I don’t believe a school has the ability to solve the problem of chip technology! Besides, China’s chips have always been imported. If they can make chips, they would have done it long ago. They don’t have such talent!
“The fact that no one else made it can only mean one thing—they stole someone else’s technology!
“The chip they came up with this time is almost identical to ours. It’s impossible to say that it was we who stole their technology.”
Qi Rongguang wasn’t moved at all by the council’s suggestion to compromise. He refused to give in.
“Either they’re not allowed to use this technology, or we’re not allowed to use it. I won’t accept any concessions, nor will I accept their explanation and apology. Do as you deem fit!”
…
On the first floor.
After sending the message to Slim Waist Control, Qiao Nian said to Liang Conglin and the others, “Principal, I’m going out for a while to pick up my friend.”
“Do you want me to go with you?” Liang Conglin was quite worried about her. After all, they were unfamiliar with this place. If anything happened, he wouldn’t know who to look for.
“There’s no need.” Qiao Nian had already stood up from her seat. Her black shoulder bag was placed beside Liang Conglin. With him around, she was not worried that anyone would steal her bag. She only brought her cell phone with her. She had a convincing aura as she said calmly, “I’ll wait for him outside. It won’t take long.”
Seeing her in the limelight, Tian Jing’s lips curled into a disdainful smile.
If it wasn’t for the fact that Liang Conglin was still here, she would definitely have mocked her. When Qiao Nian mentioned having a friend just now, she was so arrogant. She made it seem like that friend had a powerful background. In the end, said friend didn’t even know the hotel well and still needed someone to pick them up.
Whoever it was didn’t seem to be a powerful figure!
How could such a person help them?
Liang Conglin didn’t look at Tian Jing. Seeing that Qiao Nian really didn’t want him to go with her, he stood up and reminded the girl, “Remember to call me if there’s anything. I’ll look for you immediately. Remember, don’t act alone! Your grandfather repeatedly told me to ensure your safety. Don’t let make me break my word, understand?”
“Mm.” Hearing him mention Jiang Weishang, Qiao Nian nodded. Her dark eyes softened slightly as she nodded in agreement.
…
Outside.
The elevator took a lot of time to get from the 38th floor to the first floor.
Slim Waist Control had never felt time stretch out like this in his life.
He wished that the elevator would reach the first floor in the next second. He rushed out and immediately went to the agreed place to look for her.
As he waited for the elevator to descend, he impatiently looked at the message he had just received on his cell phone.
He rubbed her eyes to make sure he wasn’t seeing things.
The big shot had indeed replied to his message and even arranged a meeting place with him.
[Sun: In the corridor outside the tea restaurant on the first floor of Jin Chen Hotel. I’ll wait for you.]
He double-checked.
He did see the sender correctly!
It was definitely Sun ‘himself’.
At the thought that he would be able to see Sun soon, he couldn’t help but feel excited.
Sun.
Everyone from the Red Alliance wanted to see Sun in person.
Even someone of his level had never seen Sun before. It could be seen how mysterious Sun was.
He was going to see Sun in person today!
Slim Waist Control felt like he wasn’t going to see a big shot, but to see his sweetheart. His heart was beating fast.
