My Scheming Little Devil-Chapter 99: I also have _1

But he was too far away; she couldn’t quite make out his face.

But... why did she feel like this man had a familiar look? He resembled that evil creature, the handsome snake!

Ye Lu grew nervous. It couldn’t be possible that the handsome snake was him. She had seriously offended that snake.

It must just be a case of mistaken identity; yes, surely just that.

Soon, the headmaster ushered them in.

Ye Lu sighed in relief.

Unexpectedly, about an hour later, their adviser called Yang Yang.

Excitedly, he said that the leaders of the Jun Group were visiting related research projects and had selected three experimental projects, one of which was their group. He asked Yang Yang to notify the students from his group to come over.

Yang Yang was so excited he could barely hold onto his phone: "Oh my God, we’re so lucky to have this opportunity to meet a member of the Jun Family! My heart is racing! If we leave a good impression, maybe we will catch the eye of the Jun Family and have an easier path into the Jun Group in the future."

Ye Lu’s face changed. They couldn’t have possibly chosen them.

Was it really the handsome snake? If it was, she was finished if she met him face to face.

Remembering the terrible thing that man had done to her last time, she trembled in fear. Oh God, she didn’t want to be caught and bit to death.

"I think I’m feeling a bit unwell. Can I not go?"

"Are you crazy? If you mess this up at this crucial moment, not only will we not forgive you, the professor won’t either."

Ye Lu had no choice but to go along with a brave face, repeatedly praying in her mind that it wouldn’t be the handsome snake.

Zhao Ziru, their adviser, picked them up at the entrance of the lab building.

He warned them nervously to be polite, not to interrupt until the leaders finished talking, answer all of the leaders’ questions, show good manners, and try to stand out among the three groups.

If they performed well this time, their group was sure to receive a large amount of research funding.

All the students were excited, with the exception of the timid Ye Lu.

She walked in at the end, deliberately hiding behind several male students, including Chu Fei. They screened her from view and just in case, the handsome snake wouldn’t see her.

It was a good plan. She felt a little more at ease.

However, once she was inside, Ye Lu peeked at the group of chatting leaders, only to drop her gaze in fright, silently cursing the situation. Even heaven wasn’t on her side.

The man in the center of the leaders was Third Young Master Jun, wasn’t it?

Ye Lu quickly lowered her head, hiding at the back, her heart pounding in fear. It really was him, that wicked creature, who turned out to be a high-status member of the Jun family. Oh no, she’d offended him.

She prayed that he wouldn’t see her, begged for the blessing of the Bodhisattva, promising to offer more incense in the future.

As soon as the students from the three groups arrived, several advisers began to compete in presenting their group’s research projects, trying to win the attention of the leadership of the Jun Group and get more funding for their group.

The competition was fierce.

"President Jun, our project has unlimited potential. Especially this student of mine; she has already published related papers in authoritative foreign journals." The genetics professor, Dr. Li, promptly recommended one of the attractive female students from his group, drawing the attention of the Jun Group’s higher-ups.

Pretty women are common in society, but pretty women who are also research scholars are rare, and thus more attractive.

Zhao Ziru was infuriated. That old man, Li, had also resorted to using beauty as a strategy. Huh, don’t think that just because their group has a pretty woman, his group was at a disadvantage. He had two pretty women in his group. Quantity would trump here.

"Yang Yang, Ye Lu, come and introduce our recent successful research to the leaders."

Yang Yang, upon hearing his name from the adviser, was overjoyed.
