After Having Everything Taken Away, She Returns As A God-Chapter 1059 - : The Protective Fourth Senior Brother (1)

Chapter 1059: The Protective Fourth Senior Brother (1)

“I’m an actress by profession, and I’ve never considered changing careers.” After a brief pause, she added sincerely, “I really enjoy acting.” The interview panel had already known this about Si Fuqing, but hearing her say it out loud still caught them by surprise.

Even In Yunxi raised an eyebrow, puzzled.

Wasn’t the ceiling of an acting career far lower than being a researcher at the Intercontinental Research Institute?

Or was she just utterly ignorant of the institute’s prestigious standing?

The head judge nodded, smiling as he asked, “Then why did you participate in the exam?”

Si Fuqing answered frankly, with complete honesty, “Because I’m very poor and need funding.”

...

“Excellent.” To everyone’s surprise, it was Lang Xuan who spoke next. He smiled faintly and said, “You’ve earned a B-class status card this time, which entitles you to an annual research grant of ten million from the Intercontinental Research Institute.”

The Mechanical Institute’s vice dean, overhearing this, was utterly baffled: “???”

Since when did B-class personnel receive such a high budget?

If this were true, the Intercontinental Research Institute would have gone bankrupt ages ago!

Si Fuqing glanced at the nameplate in front of Lang Xuan, nodded, and said, “Thank you, Mr. Cloud Four.”

She hadn’t expected her Fourth Senior Brother to serve as a judge for this year’s international joint examination.

She had suspected YUAN Mingchi and also Lang Xuan.

After all, Lang Xuan had been with her in the Intercontinental Research Institute’s labs, where they had conducted numerous experiments together.

Si Fuqing’s eyelashes fluttered downward in thought.

“Alright, next.” The head judge handed Si Fuqing her status card and proceeded to interview the next candidate.

Wilbur stepped forward, giving his own introduction.

Unlike Si Fuqing, he spoke at length, even embellishing his tragic upbringing on the streets.

The head judge posed a few questions, and Wilbur answered each one.

But at the very end, Wilbur clenched his teeth and suddenly pointed at Si Fuqing, declaring, “Judges, I wish to report her for cheating!”

The room fell silent at once.

The other candidates exchanged bewildered glances.

The head judge’s gaze turned icy. “Why do you say that? Do you have any evidence?”

“The evidence is that there’s no way she could outperform me!” Wilbur replied confidently. “It’s absolutely impossible!”

His genes had evolved—he was the superior result of natural selection. How could he lose to an ordinary human like Si Fuqing?

The head judge chuckled coldly, “In any accusation, you must provide proof. How do you plan to back up your claims without evidence?”

“I…” Wilbur had barely uttered a word when he was abruptly cut off.

Lang Xuan’s gaze, indifferent and piercing, landed on him. “As an evolved being with a super brain, failing to report yourself in advance—how is that different from cheating?”

Wilbur froze, a cold sweat breaking out on his back. His mouth opened, but he couldn’t form a single word, leaving only fear etched on his face.

Si Fuqing raised an eyebrow, slightly intrigued. “An evolved being with a super brain?”

There were indeed quite a few of them.

Typically, humans only utilize about 10% of their brain’s capacity, but this type of evolved being could reach up to 20%—far surpassing the average person.

However, despite having a super brain and high intelligence, he hadn’t even scored 260 points?

This so-called evolution didn’t seem to have gotten him very far.

She had noticed Wilbur was an evolved being but dismissed him due to his low level.

Wilbur’s entire body shook with sudden terror.

How did the judges know about this when he had never disclosed it?

The Mechanical Institute’s vice dean scoffed, “You’re smart enough to take a test but too dumb to realize your actions aren’t foolproof?”

Such matters were effortlessly uncovered by the Intercontinental Research Institute.

Did he really think he could outsmart them?

“Violating exam regulations—your candidacy is revoked.” Lang Xuan didn’t spare him another glance. “This interview is over.”

Wilbur’s face contorted in panic, and he stammered, “Sir! Sir, I—”

Before he could finish, two assistants escorted him out.

The remaining candidates were equally rattled, unsure what Lang Xuan had meant by “evolved being.”

“The Intercontinental Research Institute doesn’t discriminate against evolved beings with super brains. In fact, we welcome them,” the head judge reassured the group. “However, evolved beings and ordinary candidates are given different exams, and we hold them to higher standards.”

Wilbur, despite possessing a super brain, had failed to outperform even the ordinary candidates.

Had he possessed extraordinary endurance or physical strength, he would have taken a separate exam tailored for evolved individuals.
