1935 The Team Examination in December Is Very Important

While they were eating, Shen Qingfeng took the opportunity to tell the girl about the research inst.i.tute and about the team.

“The First Research Inst.i.tute is divided into eight laboratories. You’re at Level 3, Xue Zhu and I are at Level 4, and Xu Yi was graded at Level 5 back then. Newbies like us usually help each other and form groups to carry out experimental projects. The experimental project is most likely given by the graded laboratories…”

Shen Qingfeng smiled, hiding the disappointment in his eyes. He introduced the girl gently, “However, the three of us didn’t get any projects from our own laboratory, so our team doesn’t have any experimental projects to carry out for the time being.”

Qiao Nian indeed didn’t know that experimental projects could only be done by a graded laboratory.

She nodded. She was very careful to restrain her arrogant aura and tried her best to integrate into the group.

Shen Qingfeng continued upon seeing that she was listening to him seriously, “In addition to the experimental project, the research inst.i.tute has a team-based a.s.sessment every month. This is actually related to the experimental project. It’s to examine the teams’ monthly results. We don’t have any projects a.s.signed by the laboratory. Just some of our personal results are a little insufficient compared to the other teams. Therefore, our team has always been the last in the monthly a.s.sessment.”

Shen Qingfeng looked at her apologetically. “I’m sorry for dragging you down.”

Xue Zhu was focused on her food. Upon hearing this, she put down her chopsticks and smiled. Her delicate oval face was a little indifferent as she looked at Qiao Nian and said sincerely, “That’s all there is to the First Research Inst.i.tute. It looks glamorous on the outside, but in reality, we still have to organize into small groups and take sides. It’s fine for me to be last. Anyway, we’re not from the three big families, and it’s very difficult for us to get first place. Since we can’t be first, it’s not bad to be last.”

She added after some thought, “The group exams from January to November this year have already been pa.s.sed. All of those who got first place are in Group 1. The group exams are coming up in December. I think Ji Ziyin’s group will get first place again. If she does, she’ll have a chance to use the Level 8 laboratory next year. At that time, she’ll be smug again!”

“Junior Xue.” Shen Qingfeng stopped her and reminded her with a frown, “Stop talking.”

Xue Zhu glanced at him and shrugged, her att.i.tude carefree. “I just don’t like her, so I’m going to say it. Anyway, I’m not that stupid. We’re outside. It’s just the few of us.”

Her clear almond-shaped eyes were filled with disdain as she looked at Qiao Nian and continued, “That Ji Ziyin is an influential figure in the research inst.i.tute. She has the backing of a big tree to take advantage of. She uses the best resources and finds the best mentors. She still has to rely on her talent to produce results. Tsk, what talent does she have! I think she’s just so-so. She’s not as amazing as she brags to be. She didn’t take five years to complete a Level 1 experiment alone. Xu Yi could have broken through Level 1 long ago, but he didn’t have the chance to partic.i.p.ate in the ranking exam.

“Xu Yi is the smartest out of the three of us. His ability is about the same as Ji Ziyin’s. It’s just that Ji Ziyin is valued by the research inst.i.tute, and no one values Xu Yi,” Shen Qingfeng explained. Then, he fell silent.

Qiao Nian roughly understood the group a.s.sessment. She nodded softly and looked up, revealing an exquisite and eye-catching face under her baseball cap. Unable to suppress the frivolity in her voice, she asked, “Is the group a.s.sessment in December very important?”
