Qiao Nian raised her eyebrows and retracted her gaze. She walked to the man who was talking to someone and greeted politely, “Principal Liang.”

Liang Conglin was still the same as the last time she saw him. Seeing her, he greeted her warmly, “Qiao Nian, you’re here.”

With that, he quickly took the time to say, “Wait for me.”

“Okay.” Qiao Nian casually found a corner and waited for him.

Other than Liang Conglin, there were a few others in the office. Qiao Nian had never seen them before. From the looks of it, these people were dressed quite rigidly. They were wearing blue work clothes. Be it the men or women, their hair was combed neatly and stiffly.

At this moment, everyone’s expression was not good. Other than Liang Conglin, no one in the office looked at her.

Bang!

A square-faced old man with half-white hair slapped the desk. He was very agitated and said angrily, “They can’t stand us developing the chip, so they slandered Professor Jiang and the others for stealing their technology and detained them there. They’re simply going too far!”

A chip?

Qiao Nian raised her eyebrows and pursed her lips in silence.

The principal glanced in her direction and frowned. He rubbed his temples and shouted at the agitated person, “Elder He, don’t be anxious. We have information that can prove that we developed them ourselves. As long as we bring the information over…”

“It’s not that easy.” Another woman in her fifties stood out and said helplessly, “You can’t go to that place just because you want to. I looked for Zhou Hengfeng and originally wanted to ask the Red Alliance through him to see if we could save them, but Zhou Hengfeng was unwilling to help. Old Master Jiang called just now and said that his granddaughter was also unwilling to look for Zhou Hengfeng. Our path has been blocked.”

Jiang Zongjin was representing the scientific research team of Qing University to participate in an academic exchange. Unexpectedly, something went wrong at the academic exchange.

Chip technology had always been controlled overseas. Their participation in the academic exchange this time showed the microchip technology they had developed themselves.

In the end, the overseas team that went with them insisted that they stole the scientific research results and detained all the teams, including Jiang Zongjin, forcing them to hand over the microchip technology.

Jiang Li didn’t resolve the problem in the past.

This was a difficult matter.

After all, they were not in the country. Although they were angry, the illegal district had its own rules. Their current plan was to bring the evidence over.

However, it was a good idea. Not everyone could go to the illegal district.

There was one more thing to do there.

Otherwise, none of them could go!

Liang Conglin was silent. His brows were furrowed tightly, and he couldn’t think of a way for a moment.

Only the Ninth Branch had connections in the illegal district. Other than Zhou Hengfeng, who knew people from the Red Alliance, they could only find one person—Ye Wangchuan.

He was wondering if he should ask him.

The girl waiting quietly in the corner suddenly interrupted, “I have what you want.”

Whoosh—

A few pairs of eyes in the office looked at her in shock.

Qiao Nian looked up. The face under the cap was exquisite and young. She was just a student. Be it her clothes or age, she did not look old. She was quite an ordinary girl.

Of course, she was a little too beautiful.

“Do you know what we want?” A professor couldn’t help but speak. His tone was quite unfriendly, mainly because he wasn’t in a good mood.

Liang Conglin quickly mediated the situation. “Qiao Nian is a new student at Qing University this year. She doesn’t know what we’re talking about. She came over to look for me for something. I’ll talk to her outside later.”
