Quick Transmigration: The Mad Beauty Refuses to Be the Scapegoat! Chapter 363 - 13: This Fishpond’s Cannon Fodder Is Contracte

At the beginning, she saw this boss sneaking into the office alone with Jiang Lai, which confird her suspicions about their improper investnt relationship.

After all, the operational costs of this experintal base are so high, and the return period is so long. If this boss didn’t have ulterior motives, why would he keep pouring money into Jiang Lai?

Moreover, when Jiang Lai had health issues recently, this investor imdiately arranged a complete dical team and a private health doctor specifically to take care of Jiang Lai, which no one would believe wasn’t fishy.

If that’s the case, then what would the investor think if he knew that Jiang Lai had been secretly spending ti alone with a male rmaid?

Would he choose to believe it, or choose to forgive it?

Ren Yan realized that to deal with soone like Jiang Lai, one must use every ans possible.

So when the investor held a work eting, Ren Yan finally had a chance to see his appearance up close, having only caught a glimpse during his previous inspection.

She only knew he was a relatively tall man.

Today, the mont he walked in the door, Ren Yan’s breath briefly stopped.

Even Zhou Liang beside her couldn’t help but exclaim softly.

"Why is the investor so young?"

Ren Yan subconsciously murmured.

"Yeah, he’s really young."

Not only young but also astonishing in appearance.

"At first glance, he’s clearly of mixed race. His eyes, nose bridge, not too sharp like a Westerner, but deeply exquisite and perfectly balanced. His lips are thin, a light pink, and when slightly pursed, those long and thick eyelashes brightened up his eyes with a unique brilliance.

Extrely tall, his build is a perfect clothes hanger, wearing a simple blue plaid sweater paired with casual pants, topped with a black jacket. Sitting down, he nonchalantly rests his hands on his crossed legs, with the expensive watch on his wrist as pure blue as the rmaid’s eyes, making him look both elegant and approachable."

Such a man is unexpected.

Little Buding recited the protagonist’s first impression of the investor from the original story.

Since the whole text is a self-psychological journey, it unreservedly expressed her amazent and admiration.

"The infatuated male second has arrived, Gao Qingjue might have to step back a bit."

This is the most standard configuration for an infatuated male second in novels: gentle, handso, wealthy, devoted, whom the protagonist doesn’t love but the readers do, making one feel itchy to step in for her.

Jiang Lai was completely indifferent to what Little Buding was saying.

Because as the project leader, today she needed to give the investor an explanation.

The research results weren’t much of a problem, but it was mainly about the funding.

The laboratory was extrely expensive, with all kinds of instrunts and materials, as well as deep-sea fishing aspects. Furthermore, she had a bigger expenditure coming up, all of which was a lot of silver.

So the investor sitting in front of her now seed blurry in Jiang Lai’s eyes; all she could see was a body radiating with golden light.

Surely, the God of Wealth had co down to earth.

After glancing at the financial report for the quarter, the God of Wealth casually set the sheet aside without looking too closely, only glancing at the total amount.

"It’s been hard on everyone during this period. Visiting this laboratory has been quite an experience for . When it was first built, it was just Jiang Lai here alone. I wouldn’t have thought that a few months later, so many more people would have joined. The spirit of everyone’s dedication to scientific research has moved . Therefore, the special reward for this quarter is deserved by everyone, and I hope everyone can stay true to their intentions and create more brilliance in the field of mysterious biological research in our country."

Upon hearing about the special reward, a few couldn’t help but clap their hands.

After all, the treatnt in the laboratory is really good, and the quarterly bonuses are exceptionally generous. Even interns can be paid as regular employees, which is one of the reasons so interns try everything they can to stay.

The pleasantries ended.

"Alright, everyone may continue. Jiang Lai, please stay."

Sure enough, it’s Jiang Lai again.

If in the beginning it was rely contempt, Ren Yan was now filled with incomprehension.

How could a person like that stoop to lowly acts? So excellent, so young, he surely is more proud within. Soone like him would not allow himself to do sothing unfitting.

He definitely would properly date a girlfriend, instead of keeping a vague relationship with soone like Jiang Lai as she previously suspected.

What could they possibly be doing alone together?

Just discussing work?

Why only discuss work with Jiang Lai?

Why not with other researchers in the lab?

What really is their relationship?

Surely they can’t be a couple? The investor couldn’t possibly be attracted to Jiang Lai; she’s peculiar, reclusive, irritable, and petty. The investor certainly noticed this.

Gao Qingjue noticed Ren Yan, who was walking with her head down nearby and realized she was deep in thought again.

Having known her for many years, he knew Ren Yan often gets lost in a world she concocts, making her seem mysteriously lonely, prompting the urge to approach and warm her up.

But now he wasn’t in the mood for that anymore.

Ren Yan’s thoughts were beyond his understanding, and mainly he didn’t want to be the fool anymore; kindness should be left to her own devices.

Everyone else left, leaving Ren Yan pacing outside the eting room. Hu Xintong had just returned to grab a file and found her still there upon opening the door.

"Ren Yan, why are you still here? Lunchti is almost over."

"Oh, I just have a few things to sort out."

Hu Xintong cast a suspicious glance at her.

"If you have sothing urgent to discuss with the director, it’s best to return after lunch. The director is in there discussing business with the leadership and will have lunch inside as well, so you should go eat first."

Not wanting to cause unnecessary assumptions, Ren Yan nodded and, seeing Hu Xintong was leaving, extended an invitation.

"In that case, let’s have lunch together."

Since entering the lab, this was the first ti Hu Xintong had lunch with Ren Yan.

Logically speaking, being both won, their relationship should be closer, but Ren Yan was very aloof, hardly ever interacting with her, always eating alone at a corner in silence, creating a strange impression.

In boys’ eyes, this might appear lonely.

But in Hu Xintong’s view, it seed a bit pretentious—her eyes were clearly not devoid of desire, yet she pretended to be detached from the world.

So rather than talking to Ren Yan, it was preferable to consult the director, who was at least straightforward, saying what he ant.

Sitting face to face for lunch, Hu Xintong felt she was almost struggling to digest.
