Ms. Bigshot Is Pampered by All novel Chapter 418

Chapter 418: Chapter 417: The Pressure Is On Others

Chi Gui lowered her gaze to look at her.

Shi Liyun held her head high, showing weakness at the right moment, her voice softened, "Professor Chi... I don’t want to work overtime alone, can you stay with me?"

She even used the honorific title.

Chi Gui’s expression remained very calm, no different from when she confronted Shi Liyun, "Why?"

Shi Liyun choked for words.

But a whole day’s time had fully made her realize that in the research institute, she must establish a good relationship with Chi Gui.

In the afternoon, Shi Liyun thought back to every moment of interaction with Chi Gui, confirming that although she had silently targeted Chi Gui, she hadn’t made it obvious, not enough to be seen through.

The two maintained a seemingly harmonious relationship on the surface.

Shi Liyun brewed her excuse, sincerely saying, "Chi Gui, in the entire research institute, we are the only two from Huaxia, and we have been colleagues for three years..."

Chi Gui responded, "You’re absolutely right."

Shi Liyun’s heart leaped with joy, but then she heard Chi Gui continue, "That’s why you should work even harder, so as not to bring shame to our motherland or to me."

Shi Liyun was puzzled.

Watching Chi Gui’s retreating figure, she clenched her teeth firmly.

At that moment, her phone’s ringtone erupted.

Shi Liyun fetched her phone and saw a message from Xue Mingqing asking how she was doing.

Xue Mingqing had things to attend to back home, and after accompanying Shi Liyun to the research institute, he returned to the country.

Seeing the message from Xue Mingqing, Shi Liyun pursed her lips.

She had finally earned an enviable reputation in her home country, she couldn’t let it all go to waste!
