s.h.i.+ Qian stopped in her tracks and turned to look at the girl.

The girl became even more nervous and looked up at s.h.i.+ Qian with fear.

She subconsciously gripped her bag tightly. It was like she was ready to cover her face at any time.

The surrounding people didnt understand the confusion. The two girls looked at each other.

s.h.i.+ Qian retracted her gaze indifferently and walked away.

The girl let down her guard when s.h.i.+ Qian left the professor and no longer returned.

You scared me to death.

Look at you! Another girl said.

The girl turned her head. Youre awesome. Why were you shaking just now?!

The girl was at a loss for words.

Zhuang Shuyu and s.h.i.+ Muxue walked by the roadside.

Muxue, how do you feel after joining the project team?

It feels good, s.h.i.+ Muxue replied. Ive learned a lot recently. Thank you, Director. I wouldnt have joined such a vital project team if you hadnt introduced me to the research inst.i.tute.

Zhuang Shuyu chuckled. This is all your hard work. Youve joined such an important project before you even graduated. That is unprecedented. Muxue, youre outstanding.

s.h.i.+ Muxue smiled.

A hint of pride flashed in her eyes.

Muxue.

At this moment, a mans voice sounded.

s.h.i.+ Muxue turned to look toward the voice.

Su Jinxuan walked towards s.h.i.+ Muxue.

Muxue, you guys continue chatting, Zhuang Shuyu said. Ill be leaving first.

Take care, Director. s.h.i.+ Muxue nodded.

Zhuang Shuyu left.

Brother Xuan, why are you here all of a sudden? s.h.i.+ Muxue looked at Su Jinxuan.

I came to see you. Xue er, do you still have cla.s.ses in the afternoon?

Yes, I have cla.s.ses. s.h.i.+ Muxue replied.

Then what time do you finish cla.s.s? Su Jinxuan asked again.

s.h.i.+ Muxue did not have cla.s.ses in the afternoon. She knew that Su Jinxuan wanted to go on a date with her, but she did not have time to deal with him now.

She had already made an appointment with Young Master Jiang.

After all, Su Jinxuan had helped the s.h.i.+ family so much in the past. It was not good for her to break up with him this sudden. She could only give him a cold answer.

Yes, 4:30. However, I must visit the research inst.i.tute after cla.s.s. Brother Xuan, do you have something to do?

Su Jinxuan looked at s.h.i.+ Muxue with a complicated expression.

Xue er, did I do something wrong recently? He asked after a moment of hesitation.

Hmm? No, you didnt. Why would you ask that, Brother Xuan? s.h.i.+ Muxue pretended to be puzzled.

Ive been asking you out recently, but youve always been busy. Xueer, are you deliberately distancing yourself from me?

Its not that. I s.h.i.+ Muxue explained softly. I recently joined a new project at the research inst.i.tute, so Im quite busy.

New project? What? Su Jinxuan was stunned for a moment. Then, a hint of shock flashed in his eyes. You mean the latest experimental project at the research inst.i.tute?

Yes. s.h.i.+ Muxue nodded.

Disbelief filled Jinxuans face. He knew about the experimental project, and the selection of members was strict.

s.h.i.+ Muxue was only a first-year student. But she was able to join such an important project. That was very rare.

Im sorry, Brother Xuan. I should have told you earlier.

Xueer, its my fault, Su Jinxuan said gently. I didnt expect my Xueer to be so outstanding. Brother Xuan misunderstood you. Brother Xuan apologizes to you.

If you dont have anything to do this Sat.u.r.day, Ill give you a call, okay? s.h.i.+ Muxue smiled.

Okay, contact me if youre not busy.

Okay. s.h.i.+ Muxue nodded.

Su Jinxuan left.

s.h.i.+ Muxue curled her lips and turned around.

She saw s.h.i.+ Qian walk towards the door.

Sister, s.h.i.+ Muxue suddenly said as s.h.i.+ Qian walked closer..
