Forced to Date a Big Shot - Chapter 635:

Chapter 635: Gathering of the Powerful

In Xue Xi’s laboratory.

After Li Fan saw the progress of the project, he looked up in surprise. “You guys have only been doing it for a month and a half and you’ve already progressed to this extent?”

Xue Xi nodded.

Their experimental theory had already reached three-quarters. In another half a month, the theory would be established!

Although the latter half a month was the most crucial, how could three-quarters of the early stage be completed in a short span of one and a half months?

Li Fan clenched his jaw.

Feng Xingshen said, “Old Li, we’ve already agreed that you’ll support us. You can’t go back on your word!”

Li Fan’s face tensed up. “I’m going back on my word.”

Feng Xingshen was instantly furious. “Old Li! You…”

However, before he could finish speaking, Li Fan said, “My research project took three years to complete. How can I give it away so easily? Unless…”

Feng Xingshen was on the verge of flying into a rage. When he heard this, he said impatiently, “Unless what?”

Li Fan coughed. “Unless Sister Xi asks me to join this project. Then I’ll bring the topic along. How about it?”

Feng Xingshen: “?”

Feng Xingshen looked at the project report in Li Fan’s hands and suddenly smiled. He pointed at Li Fan and trembled. “You!”

Li Fan said, “Before this, I never believed that someone could really accomplish the project. When you came to ask me for my results, I thought that you must be lying to me. How did this project reach this stage so quickly? I thought that you were playing tricks because Huaxia University’s Math Department wanted to surpass our Huazhong University! Old Feng, it’s my fault! You don’t have to share your research project anymore. I was too narrow-minded.”

Li Fan had always been a professional.

He sighed. “I’ve only made two wrong choices in my life.”

Feng Xingshen was stunned. “What?”

Li Fan: “Firstly, I didn’t listen to you back then. I didn’t make an exception in order to accept Sister Xi, causing her to miss crossing paths with Huazhong University. It was my mistake that Huazhong University failed to recruit such an outstanding student.”

Feng Xingshen raised his chin smugly.

Back then, when Sister Xi got first in the National Examination, he’d personally called Old Li, but this fellow refused to believe him. Now, he must be regretting it, right?

He asked, “What about the second?”

Li Fan: “Secondly, I didn’t agree when you looked for me last time. Now, I can only thicken my skin and beg Sister Xi. I wonder if she’ll be willing to let me join?”

Feng Xingshen was not suited to doing research for the light source machine, so he did not give Xue Xi much help. On the other hand, Li Fan’s research direction was very important to the project.

Feng Xingshen shot Xue Xi a look.

Xue Xi extended her hand to Li Fan. “Mr. Li, welcome.”

With Li Fan’s participation, their project would definitely progress even faster!

Both parties reached an agreement and Li Fan said, “Alright, from now on, until the project’s theoretical framework is completed, I’ll stay in Huaxia University. Old Feng, do you welcome me?”

Feng Xingshen: “Welcome, welcome!”

After saying that, he picked up his phone.

Li Fan smiled. “You’re booking a room for me so quickly? Old Feng, you’re too polite!”

Feng Xingshen looked at him as though he was looking at an idiot. The corners of his lips twitched as he said, “In your dreams. I’m going to call Old Wang, Old Chen, and Old Liu to tell them that I’ve found such a formidable external helper for Sister Xi. The three of them should also do something!

“You actually want me to book a room for you? You even mocked me back then, so it’s good enough that I’m not chasing you out with a broom! Sister Xi has a lounge here. I think you can just stay here.”

Li Fan: “…”

…

Li Xuelei and Liu Xi heard the exclamation and walked over curiously. They heard cheers coming from inside. “Director Li is willing to support us! Director Li has personally come to participate in our project. Our mathematics team is like a tiger that can take flight!”

“This is amazing. We can finally continue our research!”

“…”

The group of people discussed excitedly, making Li Xuelei frown. “How did this happen?”

Liu Xiu’s expression changed. “Don’t be anxious. Even if Director Li supports them, there are still other difficult problems waiting for them! It’s impossible for them to complete this project. Think about it. The best mathematics professor in the country is here, but will the best physics, chemistry, and computer science professors come? Who does she think she is? How can she invite so many big shots to help her?”

These people, including Feng Xingshen and Li Fan, were all people who could hold their own.

People in scientific research were all arrogant.

No one would lower themselves to participate in such a project. After all, who was the overall leader of this project?

As for the rest, it would be a joke if word got out!

Li Xuelei heaved a sigh of relief.

But at this moment!

The phone in the laboratory suddenly rang.

Water from the HR team walked over and picked up the call. “Hello, who is it?”

The other party said something and Water’s expression changed. “W-who are you? Director Wang from the Huaxia Physics Association?”

“Wait, wait a moment. I’ll call Sister Xi over to take your call!”

He covered the phone and shouted at Xue Xi’s office, “Sister Xi, Director Wang called and said that he wants to participate in our project!”

“…”
