Forced to Date a Big Shot

Chapter 637: Wife-Doting Maniac Huai

Seeing him like this, Nicholas Xiu could not help but laugh and say, “What’s so hard to say? It can’t be that Xiang really brought along an esper to help her do her project, right? That’s too absurd. Xiang is not such a person…”

Just as he said this, he heard his subordinate say, “Yes, he did.”

Nicholas Xiu: “…”

The professors were also stunned. “…”

The two of them sat there in a daze and asked in confusion, “Is what you said true?”

The subordinate: “It’s true. When he returned to the capital and heard about this, he led a few of his mechanical-hand subordinates to Huaxia University.”

Both Thor and Derry sat up straight.

Nicholas Xiu was stunned. “Is Xiang crazy? Making espers do scientific research?”

Thor and Derry also looked at each other in disbelief.

Research was sacred and also the greatest pursuit. However, many businessmen looked down on scientific researchers. Many of them even gave up on their dreams and entered the business world.

Even people like the two of them, who had reached such a high position, would always feel helpless.

The status of espers was above them. They were existences that protected the country. There were very few of them in the world, and everyone was appointed their own positions.

This was especially true for the mechanical hands. Given today’s technological advancements, they were very useful!

For example, there were some minefields that were extremely dangerous. If they were to go, they would definitely be able to tear the devices down completely and perfectly.

Such people were rare to begin with. Now, they were actually going to do scientific research?

Don’t blame Nicholas for being shocked. Even the two of them felt that it was a waste of talent!

After the room fell silent, Nicholas asked, “Are they being forced?”

Every country had an esper organization.

In China, it was called the special department.

However, in Country M, the special ability organization was controlled by Nicholas and was named the Special Ability Alliance.

In the alliance, Nicholas had used his strength to conquer the rest and make them listen to him. However, Country M’s individualism was very strong, so it was very difficult to make those people listen to him completely.

After all, it was impossible for Nicholas to manage them all the time.

As for the special department in Huaxia, it was said that they were completely under military control. However, even so, they would definitely be unhappy if they made espers handle private matters, right?

The subordinate replied, “This, I think so.”

Nicholas sighed. “Xiang is really a wife-doting maniac. No, she can only be considered as a girlfriend and not his wife. But if he does this, what about the rest of the espers in the department?”

With him forcing a few espers to help his girlfriend with private matters, the rest must have something to say, right?

Just as he thought this, he heard his subordinate say, “The news we received is that the rest… only hate themselves for not having a mechanical ability and can’t go with them.”

Nicholas Xiu: “?”

…

In the special department of China.

Jing Fei was sighing. “Boss got Zheng Zhi to help. Why can’t I help?”

Lu Chao could not help but say, “This… Who knows? I also want to help. Why am I not a robot?”

Qian Xin: “…Why am I not a robot?”

Jing Fei stood up. “I really want to do scientific research with Sister Xi! If this scientific research is settled, we can earn a lot of money! Boss actually gave those mechanical-hands a chance to earn extra money. He didn’t give us a chance, but we’re still loyal to him and have never been disloyal! Boss is really too much!”

Qian Xin: “…”

…

Huaxia University.

The entire project’s theoretical framework had been completed, as well as the computer models. Next, it was time to start making the equipment.

Zheng Zhi, Yu Da, Bottle, Water, Li Xuekai, and Ji Silin were discussing strategies in Xue Xi’s office.

After the theoretical framework had been completed, the big shots who came to provide support left. With them around, the process that originally needed one and a half months had been completed in half a month.

All of them were very busy. It was already very unusual for them to be free for half a month to help.

When the big shots came to help, they had brought their respective assistants. Now that they had left, the project department’s shorthandedness was exposed.

However, everyone was full of energy, especially Li Man. After being mocked by Liu Xiu and defended by Sister Xi, he’d still had some psychological barriers to overcome. Later, after Ji Silin chatted with him, this person seemed to be on steroids.

Seeing that everyone outside was busy, Zheng Zhi could not help but grumble, “Back then, when those people wanted to leave, I’d said that I would use the contract to suppress them, but you refused. Now you know, right? What’s the use of being stubborn? We don’t have enough manpower now. Look at them. They haven’t been home for a few days!

“Some people just pretend to be generous. Let me tell you, when it’s time to be tough, you must be tough! Society is not the Garden of Eden. It’s not as beautiful as you think!”

Li Xuekai said, “Little Square, that’s all in the past. Don’t say anything. Moreover, it’s meaningless for those who betrayed us to stay. Something might happen!”

Zheng Zhi liked to scold people and had never changed his habit. Moreover, this person strictly abided by the rules and was rigid and mean. In the department, everyone loved and hated him. What they loved was that as long as you followed the rules, he would give you the best benefits. What they hated was that if you broke the rules, his mouth would be so vicious that you could not wait to give him a few slaps. Hence, everyone affectionately called him Little Square.

When Zheng Zhi heard Li Xuekai say this, he said angrily, “Something might happen? Look at the neighboring room. Haven’t they been doing well for the past half a month? I didn’t see anything happen to them! Moreover, they’re all academic researchers. There’s a contract here. If they dare to leak knowledge, I guarantee that they’ll lose everything!”

Zheng Zhi had never trusted a stupid ordinary person to be righteous. He only wanted to use the law to maintain the fairness of society.

However, just as he said this, they heard Li Xuelei’s angry scolding coming from outside.

Zheng Zhi paused and asked in confusion, “What happened?”
