Qiao Jing noticed that Zhan Qipei suddenly stopped, turned to look at the man, and found that the other man was competing with Wu Xirui with his eyes.
She rolled her eyes speechlessly, let go of Zhan Qi Pei's hand, and prepared to go in first.
After feeling Qiao Jing's hand, Zhan Qi Pei immediately withdrew his gaze and followed the woman.
——
The next day, the institute.
As soon as Qiao Jing arrived at his laboratory, he discovered that there was one more person in the laboratory today, Xu Moqian.
At this moment, Zhan Nanqing was sitting on the sofa, holding her arms with her hands, staring at Xu Moqian speechlessly.
"What are you here for?"
Xu Moqian said "cut" and sat down on another sofa, even crossing his legs too much.
"I'm here to see my sister, not you. Why are you staring at me? Do you think that by staring at me, I'm afraid of you?"
Qiao Jing looked at these two rivals, pursed her lips helplessly, and walked into the laboratory.
After hearing the noise coming from the door, Xu Moqian turned his head and looked in the direction of the door.
When he met Qiao Jing's eyes, he immediately put away his careless look.
"Sister Jing, you are here!"
Zhan Nanqing stopped competing with Xu Moqian and stood up from the sofa.
"Good morning, Qiao Jing!"
Seeing that the two of them didn't continue to argue, Qiao Jin nodded.
Just when she was about to start working, she felt her right eyelid suddenly twitch.
Qiao Jing frowned slightly and didn't care, but when she walked to the experimental table, her eyelids twitched again.
She couldn't help but raise her hand and rub her eyes, hoping to relieve her pain, but found that her eyelids were beating faster.
She had no choice but to rub her eyes several times.
Zhan Nanqing noticed Qiao Jing's movements and asked worriedly:
"What's wrong with you? Are your eyes uncomfortable?"
Qiao Jing pursed her lips and waited until her eyes felt better before she put down her hand and answered Zhan Nanqing's question.
"The right eyelid is twitching."
After hearing Qiao Jing's words, Zhan Nanqing said in a joking tone:
"The right eyelid is twitching? Doesn't it mean that the left eye twitches for wealth and the right eye twitches for misfortunes? Could this be... Could you be unlucky today? Otherwise, why would it keep twitching?"
After saying this, she slapped her mouth.
"Bah, bah, bah, I'm just joking, don't take it to heart!"
Xu Moqian couldn't stand hearing this, so he directly criticized Zhan Nanqing.
"What kind of joke are you making? Don't tell me the good ones, but the bad ones? With your crow mouth, are you trying to curse my sister?"
Zhan Nanqing originally blamed herself a little, but after Xu Moqian scolded her, she also responded.
"You fart! How could I curse Qiao Jing? Wasn't that a joke?"
Seeing that the two of them were about to quarrel again, Qiao Jing had no choice but to stop them.
"Okay, I'm going to work."
Her eyelids are no longer twitching now, maybe she is overthinking.
But lately she really needs to pay more attention to the situation around her.
At the same time, Imperial Capital Airport.
This batch of planes landed from country M. There were more than a dozen blond and blue-eyed people from country M wearing black suits and getting off the plane.
These dozen men were carrying boxes mysteriously, and they all wore black sunglasses.
When they arrived at the airport, they immediately attracted the attention of passers-by.
After all, few foreigners usually dress up in such a mysterious manner, making it look like an organization.
After the man in the lead noticed the gazes of the people around him, he frowned and ordered:
"Keep a low profile and don't attract the attention of people around you. After that, we split up. Now that we have found Professor Qiao's personal information, we will act according to the opportunity. This Professor Qiao has made great contributions to the empire, leading to the level of agricultural development in our country.
, completely lagging behind the empire and cannot continue like this."
He paused and glanced at the time.
"If Professor Qiao is kidnapped and brought to our country, then our country will develop faster and surpass the empire. The task given by the superior must be completed within two days. To use an old saying in the empire, this
This mission, we will die if we don’t succeed.”
A row of men in black nodded solemnly, and then immediately dispersed. A dozen black figures quickly disappeared into the crowd.
at the same time.
Zhan Qipei and Wu Xirui had a head-on confrontation on a piece of land.
This piece of land is a prime location that has been coveted by all the businessmen in the imperial capital. This land is not only in the city center, but also in a location with a huge flow of people. If it is used to build a shopping mall, it will definitely make a fortune.
But the people participating in the auction this time included Zhan Qi Pei and Wu Xirui, while other businessmen quietly withdrew and chose to watch the show.
After all, why are mortals participating in this fight between gods and immortals?
Zhan Qipei sat in his seat, his thin lips pressed tightly into a straight line without an arc, and he looked at Wu Xirui with a gloomy look.
He could have acquired the land within the budgeted price, but with Wu Xirui's involvement, the other party would definitely keep raising the price, causing it to exceed his budget.
If he doesn't want this land and instead gives it to Wu Xirui, although the other party will suffer a temporary loss, the subsequent rewards will be greater.
Wu Xirui's fingers were tapping the armrest rhythmically, and when he met Zhan Qipei's eyes, he was not timid at all, but looked at him with a smile.
"Zhan Qi Pei, what a coincidence."
After hearing Wu Xirui's words, Zhan Qi Pei's dark eyes flashed with a trace of cruelty, and his whole body exuded a frightening cold air.
He slowly raised the corners of his lips, but the smile did not reach his eyes.
"skillful?"
He knew that Wu Xirui came here on purpose because he came to participate in the auction.
He could feel that Wu Xirui's actions had become more and more aggressive recently, not only trying to poach his partners, but also trying to trip him up in various places. Today, he deliberately came to the auction again, just to try to get along with him.
He is against it.
It seems that Wu Xirui is about to officially start his revenge.
Wu Xirui did not immediately answer Zhan Qi Pei's words, but pretended to hold up the auction sign accidentally.
"Fifty million."
After saying this, he turned to look at Zhan Qi Pei.
"Yeah, it's a coincidence that we all fell in love with this piece of land."
Zhan Qipei pursed his thin lips, ignored Wu Xirui, and raised the sign in his hand.
"One hundred million."
He must win this piece of land today, otherwise Wu Xirui will gradually catch up with the Zhan Group in terms of shopping malls. What's more, this piece of land has been something he has been paying attention to for a long time.
Seeing that Zhan Qi Pei had raised the price, Wu Xirui raised the sign in his hand again without hesitation.
"One hundred and twenty million."
In fact, it doesn't matter whether he takes this piece of land or not. He just wants to add trouble to Zhan Qi Pei and make him spend more money. Although if this piece of land is used to build a shopping mall, he will indeed get more benefits later.
