Chapter 594: Chapter 593: Nothing Much, Just a Bunch of Issues!

Even though Xin Yuelu was unwilling, she still had to obediently comply.

Fortunately, Miss Lu couldn’t understand, and even if she listened, she would probably be confused.

Inside the meeting room.

Xiao Qimo and Lu Mian took their respective seats.

Uncle Xin sat opposite them, holding a thick notebook, ready to record.

Uncle Xin’s full name was Xin Ke, and the reason he was called Uncle Xin was actually because he was one of the country’s top pharmacology doctors.

Dressed in work attire, there wasn’t a trace of a butler’s appearance about him; he looked entirely like an academic, with a robust intellectual aroma and profound knowledge, like a senior professor.

As for Xin Yuelu, she was a doctoral student in the field of medicinal botany and was also the leader of the cultivation team in this laboratory.

Youthful, capable, and intellectual were the labels that stuck to Xin Yuelu.

One by one, other team leaders entered the meeting room, including those from the medical team, the genetics team, and so on.

Of course, in the crowd, Lu Mian also saw the young man who had come knocking on her door at twelve o’clock the previous night.

He said a few words to Xin Yuelu, and Lu Mian recognized the voice.

When he passed by her, Lu Mian thought she heard a sound of…

snickering?

Just…

quite sudden.

Xin Yuelu chaired the meeting, and the gist of her speech was: the cultivation of Netherman had achieved initial success, but the growth trend wasn’t good, and it was very difficult to extract the RE Factor from the tissue cells.

And the progress they had made this time was: she had improved the cultivation method for Netherman.

“I’ve experimented with all the cultivation techniques, as well as tested various factors in batches, and in the end, couldn’t find the elements influencing the growth of Netherman.

But this time, I adopted the method of space mutagenesis cultivation and made a slight breakthrough.”

Simply put, space mutagenesis cultivation meant using the unique environment of space to induce mutations in plants.

She was now using a simulated space environment.

As Xin Yuelu spoke, she displayed the comparative results on the screen.

Others in the meeting room expressed their admiration and approval.

Xiao Qimo also nodded in agreement.

Lu Mian sat in her seat, recalling the information about Netherman in her mind, feeling there was something she was overlooking.

Her gaze swept over the rather ordinary-looking Netherman in the center of the conference table, and she sighed silently.

At this rate, three months wouldn’t be enough.

Sometimes, it just felt truly powerless.

All she could do was waitaEUR|

Xin Yuelu glanced at Lu Mian, who was sitting across, daydreaming, with a sense of superiority in her eyes.

Lu Mian must be feeling completely out of her depth right now, unable to understand anything, so why bother staying here and enduring?

Unfortunately for her, she couldn’t quite grasp this feeling, as she had been a top student from a young age, never having to worry about studying.

As for the others in this meeting room, none were as lost in thought as she.

With a smile, Xin Yuelu let down her guard and continued explaining the subsequent experiments.

Lu Mian was absorbed in her thoughts, and when she came back to reality, she felt a discomfort in her stomach.

She really didn’t want to make a sound under these circumstances, but the discomfort made her lose interest in listening further; her face turned slightly pale as she whispered to Xiao Qimo and then quietly got up and left the meeting room.

Even her slightest movement drew sidelong glances from everyone.

Xiao Qimo said, “Please continue,” and then followed Lu Mian out.

Those left in the conference room looked at each other.

Pu Zongyang, being young and unable to hide his emotions, muttered a discontented remark.

“I can’t be of any help, and I’m even disrupting everyone!

Mr.

NovelFire.net.co

Xiao’s attention is entirely on her now.

How can he have any time to listen to the report…”

His complaint elicited Xin Yuelu’s dissatisfaction.

Xin Yuelu glared at him, “Zongyang, don’t talk nonsense.”

“Master!

Doesn’t Mr.

Xiao know how important this meeting is?!” Pu Zongyang turned his head away, annoyed.

He was speaking the truth.

Of all those present, which one wasn’t more capable than Lu Mian, and which one wasn’t a respected senior in the industry?

Everyone else was sitting here quietly listening, and only she, who amounted to nothing, was causing issues!

As Xin Yuelu watched Xiao Qimo leave the conference room with no apparent intention of returning any time soon, she also lost some of her interest in the meeting.

After briefly summarizing the remaining measures, she adjourned the meeting.

She had never really considered Lu Mian important, just a girl in her early twenties who wasn’t worth mentioning.

Only the influence the girl had on Mr.

Xiao exceeded everyone’s imagination.

She took a deep breath.

Forget it, after all, she was just a kid.

She, a senior intellectual, shouldn’t be bothered by such an immature girl.

aEUR”aEUR”

Xiao Qimo accompanied Lu Mian out of the laboratory.

Lu Mian still didn’t look very well.

“What’s wrong?”

“I need to go to the restroom first,” Lu Mian said without elaborating and returned to her room.

When she came back out, rubbing her stomach, her complexion had slightly improved, “It’s probably something I ate.”

Xiao Qimo recalled what she had eaten, “Was there a problem with the breakfast I made with love?”

But he had eaten the same thing, and he was fine.

Seeing that he seemed very concerned, Lu Mian quickly comforted him, her clear apricot eyes gently blinking, “It’s definitely because your love was too overwhelming!”

Xiao Qimo’s stern features lightened as he locked his gaze onto the girl’s lips, his eyes deepening.

He smiled, “Then let me share some of it.”

“Hm?”

Before the girl could understand what he meant by sharing, she saw Xiao Qimo’s handsome face coming closer and closer until his cool, soft lips pressed against hers.

The kiss was swift and left as quickly as it landed.

Is this what he called sharing?

“Old fox!”

Lu Mian rubbed her lips, which had been kissed, and turned away, her face flushed.

The elegant man was smug.

Lu Mian urged him, “You should go back quickly, aren’t they still in the meeting?”

“I won’t go back,” he said nonchalantly.

“I already know the outcome; there’s no need to listen to the process.”

“Those Ph.D.-level professors will probably hate me to death…”

She shrugged her shoulders helplessly, not really concerned, “By the way, what do you think of the progress on this experiment?”

“It’s a kind of progress.

To extract the RE Factor, we must improve the growth conditions of the Netherman.”

Lu Mian nodded in agreement and walked downstairs with Xiao Qimo, saying, “Director Qimo, have you ever thought that the Netherman, which doesn’t belong to this world, might not be the real Netherman?

Could it have undergone a genetic mutation or recombination during the spatial transmission?”

Her hypothesis was based on Xin Yuelu’s experimental report.

Why did space-induced mutation breeding show some effects?

Was it not because it altered some of the genes of the Netherman?

Upon hearing this, Xiao Qimo suddenly stopped in his tracks, his deep eyes staring at Lu Mian, a whirlpool of complex emotions stirring within them.
