Hidden identities of the AI Heiress
Chapter 837 - Chapter 837 Chapter 837 Wont cause you any trouble right

Chapter 837: Chapter 837: Won’t cause you any trouble, right? Chapter 837: Chapter 837: Won’t cause you any trouble, right? Huo Chi tapped his fingers against the armrest of the sofa, staring at Han Luo for a while before nodding thoughtfully, “I’ll trust you this one time.”

At this point, he didn’t have a better option.

Thinking about the recent string of bad luck, Huo Chi felt a headache coming on and raised his hand to rub his temples.

When he had first set off from K Harbor, he had fantasized about making things work out, completing a project that the Huo Family had not achieved for many years.

With that, he would have enough clout to have a say in the Huo Family’s affairs, but things had gone contrary to his wishes.

If he failed again this time, he had no idea what would be waiting for him back at the Huo Family.

He thought bitterly that if it weren’t for that little girl sabotaging the cruise plan, he wouldn’t be in such a sorry state now.

Huo Chi lowered the hand that was rubbing his temples and said with a more pressing tone to Han Luo, “The success or failure of tomorrow is critical to my future, and whether you can stay with the Huo Family or not. We must succeed, no room for failure, understand?”

It was rare for him to be so focused and serious, a sign of his genuine anxiety.

Han Luo nodded absently, “With Professor Qiao not around, the remaining people might not notice, and even if they did, we would have already succeeded.”

The thing he had implanted into Jiang Jing’s software was a highly destructive virus. As long as he was careful, nobody would notice.

If it weren’t for Tianqi’s strong defense system, he wouldn’t have needed to go to such lengths.

Huo Chi said with slight disgust, “If it weren’t for the Young Master having no one else to use, why would I put all my hopes on you?”

Han Luo didn’t like hearing this, his eyes flashed with a glint of coldness, but in the end, he suppressed it. Time would prove his capabilities.

…

The next day.

Qiao Yun got up early, finished her morning routine, changed clothes, and went downstairs.

Li Hanzhou wasn’t in the villa; he had gotten up even earlier than Qiao Yun. Having come here, he took the opportunity to inspect some of the Li Family’s businesses in Yuncheng and agreed to meet Qiao Yun at the assessment site later.

Qiao Yun went directly to the neighboring villa.

When she arrived, breakfast was already laid out on the table, and the family was sitting around it eating.

Su Mian greeted Qiao Yun with a smile, “Qiaoqiao, good morning, come and have breakfast.”

“Okay,” Qiao Yun replied, pulling out a chair to sit down and taking a sip of milk.

Lu Shiran bit into his bun and casually asked, “Sister, is it really okay for us to go too? It won’t cause you trouble, will it?”

Qiao Yun answered obediently, “No, it won’t.”

Tianqi’s selection competition was semi-open; invited individuals could attend the event.

In past years, during this time, many professors, Ph.Ds., and other research institute heads were eager to attend the event and scout for talent.

Only a few dozen people could get in, making it a highly sought-after opportunity.

Because of this, invitations were hard to come by.

But with Qiao Yun there, Lu Shiran could go at any time.

“Then I’m relieved,” Lu Shiran said with ease, now more focused on eating. He was very curious about what the Tianqi assessment involved.

Knowing oneself and knowing the enemy, he wouldn’t be in the dark when it was his turn to participate in the Tianqi selection.

Sigh…

Who understands the bitterness of not having the means to take shortcuts?

The old man advised Lu Shiran, “Brat, don’t wander off when you get there, and don’t disturb your sister in her important tasks, or I’ll send you back home.”

Lu Shiran agreed, “I know, you’ve been telling me this for the past two days. Grandpa, don’t you have any faith in me at all?”

The old man commented, “It’s because you always rush into things without thinking.”

This time, only Lu Shiran and Li Miao accompanied Qiao Yun on her visit to the Tianqi Research Institute’s assessment.

The elder didn’t understand these technologies. If he went, it would be just to join the crowd. He might as well go play chess with Su Fan.

Lu Rui and Su Mian were worried that with too many people around, Qiao Yun would have to look after them, so they didn’t follow to avoid disturbing.

Li Miao was completely bewildered, “I’ve been wanting to ask, Qiaoqiao, are you going to participate in Tianqi’s assessment? When did you sign up?”

Qiao Yun replied slowly and calmly, “No, I’m going to be an examiner.”

“Huh?” Li Miao was taken aback and didn’t catch on immediately. Her face went blank and after a moment, she exclaimed in astonishment, “What? You’re going to be an examiner?”

Qiao Yun nodded, “Mhm.”

She suddenly remembered that Li Miao didn’t know about her background.

“Actually, I…”

Li Miao didn’t let Qiao Yun finish. She grabbed Qiao Yun’s hand, her eyes nearly sparkling with admiration, “Wow, Qiaoqiao, you really live up to your reputation, being able to be an examiner already! It must be because of your performance on the cruise that the Tianqi Research Institute saw your potential, right?”

Qiao Yun: “Uh…”

Li Miao gave Qiao Yun a thumbs-up, “You are awesome.”

Qiao Yun: “…”

Li Miao looked at her with admiration. Qiao Yun glanced at the time, and after thinking it over, she decided not to explain, planning to tell Li Miao after the assessment was over.

…

While having breakfast, Han Wang got in touch with Qiao Yun offering to pick her up.

Qiao Yun didn’t agree. Going back and forth was too much of a hassle; she could get there on her own.

Han Wang was slightly disappointed, but luckily the assessment she was in charge of this time allowed her to meet Professor Qiao at the site. Because of this, countless Tianqi researchers envied Han Wang.

Why didn’t Professor Qiao participate when they were in charge? Group Leader Han was really in luck.

After breakfast, Zhou You came to pick up Qiao Yun and they set off for the assessment site.

Elsewhere, at the Jiang Family’s place.

Jiang Shaocheng glanced at Jiang Jing, who was busy chatting on her phone, and frowned slightly, “What time is it, and you’re still in the mood to play with your phone?”

Jiang Jing put down her phone and said indifferently, “I’m just consulting Han Luo about something I don’t quite understand.”

Jiang Shaocheng’s expression darkened. He clearly remembered how they were tricked during the cruise. Because of that incident, he hadn’t been enthusiastically courting Huo Chi recently.

This person was nothing but trouble. He would prefer to keep his distance, but Jiang Jing was still eagerly contacting him.

Jiang Shaocheng said displeased, “Han Luo and Huo Chi are obviously two of a kind. You’d better not have too much contact with him. The Jiang family can’t afford a second blow.”

Jiang Jing was unfazed, “Dad, I know what I’m doing.”

Xu Qiao came over with a glass of milk for Jiang Jing and, hearing the conversation between father and daughter, she interjected, “Aren’t you confident in Jingjing’s decisions?”

Jiang Shaocheng said sternly, “Ignorant woman, is it that I don’t trust Jingjing?”

He turned to ask Jiang Jing, “Since when have you been so close to Han Luo?”

Jiang Jing didn’t hide it from him, “Dad, it was during the gathering you brought me to last time. Han Luo gave me some materials. They were quite helpful.”

Jiang Shaocheng immediately thought, ‘No good deed goes unpunished, no good deed goes without ulterior motives.’ He felt uneasy, “Why do I keep feeling that something’s not right? Why would he be so kind-hearted?”

“Dad, you’re overthinking it. Maybe he just appreciates my talent.” Jiang Jing was nonchalant, believing that as long as it was to her benefit, what was the harm in interacting with Han Luo? She was confident that she wouldn’t be used by them.

Seeing Jiang Jing so confident, Jiang Shaocheng thought, maybe he really was overthinking it.

Xu Qiao waited until they finished talking before asking, “By the way, Jingjing, didn’t you make a bet with Qiao Yun?”
