1931 We’re Not From the Three Great Clans
In a corner of the large laboratory.
The other experimental tables were surrounded by seven or eight people, but only three occupied an experimental table at the edge.
Compared to the others who were huddled together, they were like isolated islands that no one cared about.
At this moment, the man in the lead, wearing a blue shirt, jacket, and a thin checkered sweater, pushed his glasses up his nose rigorously. He looked at the girl standing at the entrance of the laboratory and asked the other two, “Looks like no one is willing to accept the new king this time. Our team is short of people. Do you want her to join us?”
Beside him was a girl. She was petite and adorable. Hearing this, she shrugged and said, “I don’t mind. It’s up to you.”
The tall and thin man looked at another person for his opinion. “Xu Yi, what do you think?”
The person called Xu Yi was young and outstandingly handsome. However, his cold face gave off a distant feeling.
When Shen Qingfeng asked for his opinion, he subconsciously looked at the girl at the entrance of the laboratory.
They were far apart. He could only see the girl’s rebellious temperament and her snow-white and beautiful chin. Her baseball cap was covering her face, so he couldn’t see her eyes clearly. He felt that she wasn’t someone to be trifled with.
“There have always been only three people in our team. The monthly trial is about to begin, and not a single experiment has been completed. If this continues, we’ll place last this month! Instead of that, why don’t we find more people? The more people, the stronger we are.”
Shen Qingfeng was the oldest of the three, and he was also the one who was most used to taking care of others. He was also this group’s soul.
He looked at the cold man and asked again, “Xu Yi, what do you think?”
Xu Yi placed a reaction vessel on the experiment table and retracted her cold fingertips. Then, he looked at him coldly. “We’ve already been isolated enough. If she joins us, I’m afraid no one in the entire research institute will look at us directly.”
Shen Qingfeng pursed his lips, momentarily speechless.
“Also, she seems to have offended Ji Ziyin. You know that Ji Ziyin is a student of Team Leader Gu, the person in charge of the Level 5 laboratory, and has the Ji family behind her… Everyone is afraid of this, so they don’t want her. Otherwise, why do you think no one is willing to take her after the teacher spoke for so long…”
Xu Yi’s handsome face seemed to be filled with ridicule as he sneered. “No one is willing to offend the Ji family, one of the three great families, for someone who doesn’t have any background and isn’t even from the Independent Continent! Unless that person is a fool!”
Shen Qingfeng fell silent. However, in just a moment, he became even more certain of his thoughts. He looked up at the people who were mocking the First Research Institute for ostracizing evildoers and said steadily, “…We’re not from the three big families, either.
“You, Xue Zhu and I. We’re not from the three great families. We both got into the research institute and were ostracized. In that case, why should we care if she’s from the Independent Continent? I think we can have her.”
With that, Shen Qingfeng looked at the girl beside him and asked for her opinion. “Xue Zhu, what do you think?”
At first, Xue Zhu didn’t mind. However, she seemed touched by what he said. She looked seriously at the girl standing there. No one wanted her, but she was nonchalant and unaffected.
Xu Yi did not expect even Xue Zhu, who had never interfered in the group’s decisions, to say this. He subconsciously frowned.
