So many patents, worth tens of millions once submitted together.
Su Xiaocai thought she had been pretty bold back then.
Although she earned so money, covering it all alone was indeed strenuous.
Plans fell short of changes, so she could only use this to fill the gap in her wages.
Thinking about the taxes to follow.
The weight of life bore down, making her sowhat regret leaving the comfort zone of Su’s Planet again.
Hoping the substantive examination could speed up a bit.
Su Xiaocai: "Isn’t the substantive examination just about submitting samples and docunts?"
"I don’t really know, will I need to be there?" Fei Yi was about to apply to school, but she thought Su Xiaocai was far more mature than many adults, so she might not need her presence.
"Did they say when they’re coming?"
"You should have received a notification..."
Su Xiaocai glanced at the date, Sunday.
Today is Friday, aning they’re coming the day after tomorrow; these people are either slow like turtles or work overti on holidays.
No need to trouble Fei Yi on Sunday, as she had already been working overti for many days because of her patent.
Su Xiaocai said considerately: "I think I can handle it on my own, have a nice holiday."
"Alright, call anyti if there’s a problem."
After hanging up the phone, Su Xiaocai couldn’t help but give a thumbs-up to Admiral Bai, such efficiency.
In fact, Admiral Bai had nothing to do with the patent office happenings.
He rely ntioned it once; the rest was all handled by the old professors who remained anonymous in their achievents.
After contemplating for a while, Su Xiaocai turned back to the playground.
The patent office needed her to confirm the location for the substantive examination; to be safe, it would be better to do it at the school since the lab wasn’t suitable for exposure.
Seeing Su Xiaocai reappear, the elderly audience hadn’t left yet, and i Lan quickly pulled her over to introduce so mbers of the contest organizing committee.
"Why did you leave so quickly earlier? The audience consists of the committee mbers. Don’t you want to et them?"
Listening to i Lan’s chatter, Su Xiaocai understood it was from concern, afraid that she might offend people by not recognizing the importance of the situation.
But i Lan’s personality was indeed a bit annoying.
Like those elders who overly monitor the younger generation, their way of caring doesn’t manage the younger generation’s emotions well, often inciting rebellion instead.
Su Xiaocai had things to do, and she didn’t believe that knowing the committee mbers would prevent offending anyone.
Because there were people from both the Yi Family and Xue Family in the committee.
It was too early to conclude whether the Yi Family was adversary.
But the Xue Family certainly was, as long as Xue Huiyi existed, Su Xiaocai wouldn’t be cordial towards them.
The Ten Star Competition has always used a live broadcast format, so even if there were inside moves, they couldn’t determine the winners alone.
So i Lan’s worries were pointless.
Before i Lan could introduce their nas, Su Xiaocai said: "Hello, grandpas, I’m in a bit of a hurry, may I borrow the principal for a mont?"
The crowd fell silent.
Silence implied permission.
"Thank you, grandpas, you’re really kind." Su Xiaocai glanced at the old principal; he understood.
"This student of ours wouldn’t act rashly without urgency, please excuse us for a mont."
i Lan: Alright, alright, once again being annoyingly concerned.
He had no choice but to continue chatting randomly with the elders.
Su Xiaocai whispered a few words to the principal and then hurried away.
The principal returned with unsteady steps.
i Lan looked over, "Principal, where’s Su Xiaocai?"
Principal: "Don’t bother looking for her; she has sothing very important to do."
He told a few old committee fellows: "Sorry, soone else needs Su, we’ll invite her to the next chat."
Smart people understand.
Calling soone away in front of them ans a higher position.
"It’s a good thing for young people to be promising; do many people usually look for her?" An old man from the committee with the last na Xue had a hooked nose and fierce eyes.
The old principal knew this Mr. Xue well; they were friends.
Knowing that he is a bit outspoken and sowhat clueless.
He spoke bluntly, "Never mind, later i Lan and Xiao Min (Vice Principal Min) will take you to eat; I also need to follow the young one to entertain guests, my apologies."
Mr. Xue shook his head, "Don’t know who could have a greater standing than us."
These elders had a combined age of over a thousand years.
"We only handle the competition; many are above us in status."
"Enough, we elders shouldn’t argue with young ones. They called us grandpas; grandpas should have more grace."
i Lan wiped the sweat from his forehead, acknowledging these elders were understanding the situation.
