Super God-Level Top Student

Lv Bei deeply regretted not studying mathematics properly before.

"I understand," Lv Bei nodded and quickly responded, "Starting tomorrow, I guarantee this place will be spotlessly clean."

Qiao Ze silently watched Lv Bei, not saying another word.

Fortunately, at this moment, Lv Bei suddenly realized, Qiao Ze had been referring to his presence.

"No, no, no, it doesn't matter whether this place is touched or not. I guarantee that after today, your home will be cleaned spotlessly, without a speck of dust."

"Oh," Qiao Ze then nodded and replied with a sound of agreement.

Lv Bei breathed a sigh of relief, finally understanding why Qiao Ze had had no reaction to the various surveillance devices installed in the office for half a month, yet suddenly had such a demand today.

Luckily, he was quick-witted enough.

If they had really let Du, the blockhead who got kicked by a donkey, handle the talk, it's likely that this job would have been handed over to another department in the future.

Qiao Ze couldn't care less about how many trinkets were placed in the office.

The guy surely had ways to let them hear or see what he wanted them to know; they just had to maintain an understanding.

But he was not often at home.

It was all because of that damn stupid Du, who always liked to come up with bad ideas, resulting in so many messy situations.

Originally, he felt that he had a good understanding with Qiao Ze...

"That, actually, this wasn't my idea." Although this sounded like passing the buck, Lv Bei couldn't help but say it.

"I know," Qiao Ze nodded.

Then he shifted his gaze from Lv Bei to the computer screen.

Alright, Lv Bei knew this meant Qiao Ze didn't plan to waste any more words on him.

Honestly, Qiao Ze had already spoken more to him today than the total amount of time they had spent in the same building for such a long period. He should be content.

Contrarily, he still had a task...

"That..."

Lv Bei hesitated to speak, but before he could finish, Qiao Ze interrupted him.

"The model issue?"

"Uh... yes, our director meant to ask if you need to send this model for testing at the research institute, we could... um..."

As he saw Qiao Ze looking up at him again, the words "provide assistance" just couldn't come out of his mouth, so he changed them to: "Actually, this wasn't my idea either."

"Oh. I'll send a test code to the Xilin University of Technology's Material Structure Characterization and Performance Analysis Research Center today. Let them test it first," Qiao Ze casually said.

"Alright, got it, I'll leave you to it," Lv Bei immediately nodded emphatically.

"Mm," Qiao Ze nodded back, not bothering with him anymore.

"That, Su, I'll be leaving first," Lv Bei then said to Su Mucheng, who was beside him tending the flowers.

"Oh, Captain Lv, go ahead with your work. This favor I owe you, pass it on to Ying; remember to give her a promotion and a raise, or I won't deal with this kind of thing for you next time," she said.

"Uh, sure, no problem," Lv Bei was stimulated again.

These two...

Are they gods or something? So frank and direct in asking for a favor from someone close by?

Damn it, Lv Bei suddenly wanted to change directors.

...

Xilin University of Technology, Material Structure Characterization and Performance Analysis Research Center.

Upon receiving that phone call from Luo Benyuan, Xu Zhengxing's good mood suddenly turned sour.

What the hell?

How come the career he had devoted his entire life to suddenly had no future?

The most infuriating part was Luo Benyuan hanging up after saying those words, and then refusing to take his calls!

Playing guessing games with him over here.

If it weren't for some urgent matters he needed to handle, he would have immediately gone next door to the lab to find that guy and give him a good scolding.

Luo probably forgot how humbly he begged him to test materials when he was working on the unmanned diving device project.

He absolutely had to remind Luo of that humiliation tonight.

However, just as he finished up the matter at hand and was about to leave, the center suddenly notified him to attend a temporary emergency meeting.

All these annoying issues really piled up on one day.

When he arrived at the meeting room, he found that today's meeting wasn't a full staff assembly; only three researchers, with the same professional title as himself, had received the notification.

The person chairing the meeting hadn't arrived yet, so the three of them started to chat idly.

"Xu, do you know what the rush is for calling us so late today?"

"I rushed over just like you did after getting the notice. How could I know?"

"Ah, no need to guess, it's definitely another classified research task," another said.

"Isn't that obvious? Out of the whole center, only we three have been involved in classified research, and they only summoned us three today," Xu Zhengxing bluntly rebuffed his colleague, not in the best of moods.

But after rebuffing his colleague, his mood did improve somewhat.

Unfortunately, he couldn't share about the classified tasks!

Otherwise, he would have loved to shout to Luo Benyuan that he was someone capable of receiving high-level classified research tasks – who the hell did he say was useless?!

However, before he could finish his imaginary triumph, the door to the small conference room was suddenly pushed open, and to his surprise, the very person he was dwelling on walked in following Zuo Chengzheng.

Xu Zhengxing blinked his eyes; nope, he wasn't hallucinating – it was Luo Benyuan!

He just looked a bit dispirited, as if he had suffered some kind of blow.

Just weird.

What classified task also involved him?

Could it be that the project Qiao had fought for had selected Luo? But that didn't seem right either. Hadn't Luo adamantly voted against it?

And in terms of timing, it wouldn't have come around so swiftly, right?

But it was good anyway; after the meeting, he would ask Luo exactly what he meant.
