Chapter 52: Laboratory

Bi Ying deliberately imitated Huo Tian’s tone. Even Huo Tian, who had always been thick-skinned, could not help but blush at this moment.

She stuck her tongue out at Bi Ying indignantly. “You’re the childish one!”

Bi Ying was too lazy to argue with this childish brat. He asked Si Huan about the school’s board of directors, “Senior, the results of the joint examination have been released. Huo Tian and I have already proven our capabilities. Why are we still participating in the school’s board meeting this time?”

Si Huan, who was previously wearing a relaxed smile on his face, frowned slightly. “He Yu was the one who brought this up. He’s a reckless person and would do anything to achieve his goals. We have to be more careful during the board meeting.”

He Yu was Bi Ying’s half-brother, but there was no kinship between the two of them. Instead, there was only bone-deep hatred between them. Therefore, Bi Ying was very wary of He Yu.

Unlike them, Huo Tian didn’t care about He Yu at all.

“Actually, no matter what we want to do, someone will eventually jump out to object. We just need to reach out and clear away the obstacles in front of us.”

Huo Tian did an action of brushing away dust and said in an especially relaxed tone, “In front of absolute power, all obstacles are merely clowns jumping around. What are you guys worried about?”

Si Huan and Bi Ying were both stunned by Huo Tian’s words. They looked at her naivety as if it was the first time they had met her.

After a long while, Si Huan sighed and said, “You’re right. Those people are just clowns. We really don’t have to care.”

Bi Ying nodded too. “After all, we have the ability to surpass most people.”

Hence, Huo Tian and Bi Ying appeared so calm before the board of directors that they didn’t look like high school students their age.

The principal didn’t look too good today. When he saw Huo Tian and Bi Ying, he only forced a smile. “Huo Tian and Bi Ying are here. Find a place to sit down first.”

After everyone had gathered, the principal said, “At the board meeting previously, everyone agreed that we would decide whether Huo Tian and Bi Ying would stay or leave after the results of the joint examination are out. I believe that their results have proven their capabilities. Does the board of directors have any objections?”

He Yu raised his hand sluggishly, his gaze fixed on Bi Ying. His eyes were filled with maliciousness and didn’t conceal his hostility at all.

“Mr. Principal, the school’s board of directors had discussed previously that if the results of these two students reach an outstanding level, they can continue to stay in Qingli High School. I think the school’s board of directors has no objections to this matter. However, what we are discussing today is the matter of the school building a high-end laboratory for two high school students without any approval…”

The principal frowned slightly. “The school lacks a relatively specialized laboratory, to begin with. This laboratory isn’t specially built for Huo Tian and Bi Ying.”

“Heh, the reason that the principal gives is too far-fetched.” He Yu sneered. “Is there a need for ordinary high school students to use such high-end experimental equipment? The board of directors suspects that the school’s management team is trying to stuff their own pockets.”

The other board members, who had remained silent, couldn’t help but gather together and whisper. It seemed like they approved of He Yu’s words.

Cold sweat involuntarily broke out on the principal’s forehead. He sensed that this meeting was not targeted at Huo Tian and Bi Ying but himself and the other members of the school’s management.

At this moment, Huo Tian, who was sitting at the end, raised her hand. “Teacher, I want to speak!”

Huo Tian’s actions, which resembled those of a primary school student, made He Yu let out a smirk. However, the principal couldn’t help but relax.

“Huo Tian, do you have any questions?” A board member, who was over 50 years old and had a friendly attitude, asked. He looked at Huo Tian as if she was a junior in his family.

Huo Tian stood up. “Since everyone has doubts about the laboratory’s facilities, I can give everyone an introduction. After all, almost all the facilities in the laboratory were installed at my request.”

Si Huan already sensed that something was wrong. He wanted to stop Huo Tian, but it was too late.

He Yu smiled as if he had gotten his way. He then asked, “Since the equipment in the laboratory was requested by Huo Tian, please explain the specific usage method of these devices in detail. What kind of experiment results can you achieve with these devices?”

Bi Ying also sensed He Yu’s thoughts. He couldn’t help but frown and tug at Huo Tian’s clothes, but she didn’t understand his intention.

Huo Tian introduced the uses of the equipment and, of course, went with He Yu’s wishes to introduce the scientific experiments she was conducting…

“In conclusion, with these facilities, I will be able to conduct technological innovation more efficiently. Soon, I will be able to display the first batch of technological achievements…”

Before she transmigrated, Huo Tian would often introduce projects to the investors, boasting endlessly about the projects in her hands, and then obtain more financial support from the investors. She was very familiar with this set of excuses, so she told the board members about her research project without any hesitation…
