Absurd! Utterly absurd!

That's Dean Zhang Mingyuan! The head of the Northern Machinery Research Institute! One of the leading authorities in the field of mechanical engineering in China!

He doesn't understand technology? Then what is he? What are those engineers in the research institute who are buried in their work? Ants?

Looking at the young girl in front of her, who had a calm face and clear eyes but was saying shocking things, Liu Wenjun was instantly overwhelmed by a huge sense of absurdity and strong self-doubt.

Was she blinded by Mingzhao's incredible blueprints and that simple yet awe-inspiring "Night Owl" before?

They actually treated a child who might be talented but was extremely arrogant and naive as their only lifeline.

Howard was startled by Mingzhao's bluntness. These words were too arrogant! It was a blatant slap in the face to the entire research institute!

But he understood Mingzhao better than Liu Wenjun.

She wasn't arrogant; she was genuinely stating what she considered "facts." From her forward-thinking perspective, Zhang Mingyuan might truly "not understand."

Seeing Liu Wenjun's face turn deathly pale and her body swaying precariously, Huo Hua knew he had to stabilize the situation.

He spoke in a deep, steady voice, addressing both Liu Wenjun and Mingzhao:

“Mingzhao!” Howard’s voice wasn’t loud, but it carried a military authority that instantly drew Mingzhao’s attention. “Technical prowess needs to be proven through practice and communication. Dean Zhang is the leader of the research institute and has the authority to allocate resources. Your idea of ​​assembling it at home does not comply with current confidentiality regulations. Liu Gong is not lying to you about this.”

He looked sharply at Mingzhao, softening his tone and speaking with a guiding quality.

"Your refusal to communicate and your insistence on your own opinions will only lead to a stalemate. Comrade Jiang Feng needs your help, and LiuGong has put in a lot of effort for him. Do you really want to see their hopes shattered because of an unnecessary misunderstanding?"

“Zhaozhao, I know your true intention is to help everyone. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have needed to step forward.”

Howard simply doubted others' abilities; he didn't know where Mingzhao's confidence came from. But he couldn't let Mingzhao be misunderstood.
