Ms. Bigshot Is Pampered by All-Chapter 446 - 445 Why Should I React

"Become real?" Xue Mingqing frowned, "We can’t influence whom Academician Peng appreciates, so how can it become real?"

Old Sir Jin’s smile was dark: "You doctors, your minds are full of healing and saving lives; your thinking is too naive."

He paused, his eyes heavily fixed on Shi Liyun: "Since we cannot reach the same level as Professor Chi, why not just pull her down?"

"Pull? How to pull?" Shi Liyun asked, stunned.

Old Sir Jin smiled, "Isn’t she the person in charge of that research project? It must receive a lot of attention. What do you think would happen if the project fails under her watch?"

Shi Liyun: "Her reputation would be implicated... not just domestically, but it would plummet within the International Medical Alliance..."

Old Sir Jin chuckled, "Then, wouldn’t you naturally surpass her at that time?"

Shi Liyun pursed her lips, hesitating, "But... I tried to sabotage her progress... and it ended up saving her time instead..."

Old Sir Jin: ...

Xue Mingqing: ...

The smile on Old Sir Jin’s face coagulated.

He suddenly regretted, why didn’t he continue to maintain a good relationship with Professor Chi?

-

No matter how big the turmoil stirred up elsewhere, it barely caused a ripple for Chi Gui.

After Fu Si’s birthday banquet, Chi Gui immediately returned to Country M.

At the same time, Shi Liyun also returned to Country M.

The following day, when she went to the institute, she happened to run into Chi Gui.

Shi Liyun guiltily lowered her head, ready to face Chi Gui’s scoff.

However, Chi Gui simply walked past her and entered the research institute.

Shi Liyun was startled; she had thought of a million possibilities, but never imagined that she would be completely ignored by Chi Gui!

Unable to hold back, Shi Liyun followed him inside, blocking Chi Gui’s path: "Why don’t you say anything?"

Chi Gui, stopped by her, remained calm: "Why should I speak?"

Shi Liyun suddenly got angry: "The situation back home blew up so much. Don’t tell me you don’t know about it! Why are you not reacting at all?"

Hearing her say that, Chi Gui spread his hands in confusion: "The scandal is yours, the mistake is yours, the mockery is also directed at you, why should I react?"

Shi Liyun was instantly speechless.

Just then, as others began walking in, Chi Gui no longer paid attention to Shi Liyun and turned to assign tasks to others.

Filled with anger and frustration, Shi Liyun could only grind her teeth and sit back down.

-

The morning passed quickly.

During lunch, Chi Gui received a message from the president of the Jewelry Association: "The Jewelry Association assessment day is in three days, remember to come."

Chi Gui: ...

She had almost forgotten she had agreed to this.

Although she felt it unnecessary, since she had promised, she would naturally attend.

After replying to the president of the Jewelry Association, Chi Gui put her phone aside and began planning the work tasks of other researchers during the period she would be attending the assessment.

Simultaneously,

Inside the International Jewelry Association building in Continent F, two senior executives were arranging the list of jewelers for the upcoming assessment.

They were the assessors for this session and also globally renowned designers.

One of them picked up Chi Gui’s resume and exclaimed to the person next to him, "Tang Qi, this girl is the one recommended by the president, right? I think highly of her!"

Tang Qi glanced at Chi Gui’s resume indifferently and said, "She only showed her skills once in that jade betting event, which doesn’t prove her design or jade carving skills. Moreover, betting on jade relies more on luck than skill; it proves nothing."

Saying that, he picked up another resume he had carefully set aside and smiled, "Compared to her, I’m more optimistic about the young Miss from the Yao Family, Yaoyu Han. Whether from her family background or her abilities, she’s definitely qualified to enter our Association. Not to mention, her father is also the vice president of our Association."

Hearing Tang Qi say this, the other person frowned slightly.

But the fact remained irrefutable, and he found no reason to argue.
