Chapter 416 Qin Xiaoyi looks a lot like a thief
"Master Yuan, I don't understand what you are saying. We do research for breakthroughs and for the development of science. So, you can rest assured. You can name a price for this black toad. I will ask my superiors to report the price truthfully."
Qin Xiaoyi has a soft voice.
The people who were busy taking samples on the homestead were still busy, but they would always pay attention to Qin Xiaoyi from time to time.
"What price do you want? I don't care about the money." Mr. Yuan waved his hand, his face turned black with anger, and his saliva sprayed far away, causing Qin Xiaoyi to subconsciously take two steps back.
Ye Xiaomei didn't know the specific situation and just watched from the side. She took in every expression of Qin Xiaoyi. It was obvious that after hearing what Yuan Lao said about traitors and collaborators, her micro-expressions were particularly complicated.
At this moment, Qin Xiaoyi sniffed it subconsciously, and the corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily.
Yes, Old Man Yuan had particularly bad breath, and because of the poisoning, the smell in his mouth was even worse than that of someone who hadn't rinsed his mouth or brushed his teeth for half his life.
Seeing that the scientific researchers looking over here were ready to make a move, Ye Xiaomei felt that they were ready to make a move and might even come up and beat people up.
"Mr. Yuan, don't be angry. The research team has its own procedures. Since you don't want to give it to me, I won't force you to give it to me, right Qin Xiaoyi?"
Ye Xiaomei said this while looking at Qin Xiaoyi, and she deliberately raised her voice a little in the second half of the sentence.
Old Yuan sat on the stool angrily and looked at the black toad in the pig cage. The initial excitement was no longer in his eyes. Instead, a sense of heartache was revealed in his squinting eyes.
After hearing what Ye Xiaomei said, a dangerous look flashed in Qin Xiaoyi's eyes. It was obvious that Ye Xiaomei did this on purpose.
She glared at Mr. Yuan, leaned towards Ye Xiaomei, and whispered, "You know who I am. Have you ever thought about the consequences of cheating me like this?"
Ye Xiaomei was slightly startled, but quickly responded: "It's just that I can't join the research team. To be honest, I don't really care."
As she spoke, Ye Xiaomei took out her ID from her pocket and slapped it into Qin Xiaoyi's arms.
At this moment, Qin Xiaoyi's expression became complicated again. He raised his eyebrows and looked at Ye Xiaomei in disbelief.
Being accepted by HKUST is a great honor. Her actions clearly indicate that she does not intend to choose medical school. However, biological research cannot be accomplished without Ye Xiaomei.
This was the conclusion she came to after traveling through time and space several times. The reason why she went to so much trouble was to find the White Snake. After all, the White Snake became extinct in the 21st century, and no White Snake with a spiritual body was found anymore, otherwise she and her boss would not have gone to so much trouble to look for it.
However, the error happened to be the time difference, and all they found was Ye Xiaomei, the white snake spirit.
If she could have done it ten or twenty years earlier, she would have been able to capture the spirit-like white snake alive. Although it is too late now, her efforts in finding the spirit body were not in vain.
At that moment, Qin Xiaoyi's eyes were filled with shock and anger. She held the ID tightly in her hand. In those few short seconds, she seemed to have gone through a huge tangle. She gritted her teeth and said:
"This is your choice."
Ye Xiaomei, however, looked calm. Now that she knew some secrets, she didn't have to pretend to be a grandson anymore. Why couldn't she take the initiative?
"It's my choice." Ye Xiaomei knew very well what she was doing. Her purpose was not to protect the Black Toad King, nor was it for the biological chain of the red maple tree, white snake and black toad in Changshou Village. She was planning to risk her life and survive. Right now, nothing was more useful than luring the snake out of its hole.
"Okay, don't regret it." Although Qin Xiaoyi was heartbroken, she seriously suspected that Ye Xiaomei had discovered too many secrets, so she gave up such a good future at this critical juncture:
“I will never regret it.”
Ye Xiaomei answered calmly.
Qin Xiaoyi looked at Ye Xiaomei for a few seconds and found that she was not surprised at all and did not show any regret at all.
Turning to look at Mr. Yuan.
Old man Yuan didn't understand what they were saying, and his eyes were fixed on the black toad in the pig cage.
Qin Xiaoyi's voice softened again: "Mr. Yuan, it doesn't matter that the black toad is your personal property, but I still advise you to consider the issue of compensation. I will go through the process first. If it is approved by the time, you may not even be compensated. It will be enforced."
Qin Xiaoyi trusts her boss very much. He has rights that even Ye Xiaomei dare not even think about. Contributing a toad to the scientific research team for research is an unquestionable result of justice.
"I don't care whether you force me or not. I won't give you my things anyway." Old Yuan was still angry and didn't even bother to look at Qin Xiaoyi.
Qin Xiaoyi subconsciously clenched her fists and yelled at her colleagues who were staring at her eagerly, "Call it a day."
The middle-aged man holding the camera looked at Qin Xiaoyi and then at Ye Xiaomei in surprise, opened his mouth to say something, but never spoke.
Ye Xiaomei looked at Qin Xiaoyi's back solemnly. What on earth were they going to do?
What is the ultimate goal of the scientific research team, including the White Snake Biology Research Group?
And who is the boss?
My vision gradually became blurry.
"Miss Ye, you have been in a daze for a long time."
Qiu Ah Man was ordered to listen to the whole process, but he found that these people had packed up their tents and things, but Ye Xiaomei was still in a daze.
Ye Xiaomei suddenly came back to her senses, and her vision became clear again:
"Oh, I was daydreaming." She hurried to cover up the emptiness in her heart.
After a closer look, it was clear that the pig cage had indeed not been taken away, but the members of the research team had almost packed up. Qin Xiaoyi discussed with a few people and turned around and walked over:
"Mr. Yuan, you cannot deal with this black toad privately for the time being. I will definitely go and get it back once the approval documents come down. You must understand the interests involved. If you lose it or it dies, you will be held responsible."
Old Yuan looked up at the girl and snorted, "I'm already buried up to my waist in the earth, why should I be afraid of responsibility? I just don't believe it, can you guys steal my things? What's the matter? This toad is my son, and he has the same surname as me, Yuan."
Ye Xiaomei's pupils shrank. It was really possible that someone might be robbed in broad daylight.
But the key point is the excitement when Yuan Lao saw Qin Xiaoyi. Hearing these words in his ears, he felt a desperate spirit of fighting to the death. If you don't accept it, come and kill me?
Qin Xiaoyi was completely stumped: "Actually, Mr. Yuan, you have also considered letting us keep it for the time being. I will write you a letter of acknowledgment. If you get hurt or have an accident, you can come to me to take responsibility."
Ye Xiaomei couldn't bear to listen any longer and sat down on the stool without saying a word. However, she knew in her heart that Qin Xiaoyi was trying to deceive the ignorant old man.
Is it possible for the research team to return the things they took away? Ye Xiaomei didn't believe it.
Who would have thought that Yuan Lao would stand up suddenly, stiffen his neck and glare at Qin Xiaoyi:
"Get lost! The most annoying thing in my life is not that I forgot to shut up when I fell into the shit pit, but seeing a bunch of you guys hurting people under the guise of research."
Ye Xiaomei rubbed her nose subconsciously because the great Master Yuan was drooling again. If there was a little more, a rainbow might appear.
Sure enough, Qin Xiaoyi took two steps back again, a hint of disgust flashing in his eyes: "Okay, since you are so ignorant of courtesy, Mr. Yuan, I will apply directly. I also hope that when the relevant department finds you, you will know the current situation."
After saying that, Qin Xiaoyi glared at Ye Xiaomei and turned away. She knew very well that this was all Ye Xiaomei's trick. If it weren't for her, the black toad would definitely be taken away smoothly.
But Qin Xiaoyi came from the city and was unfamiliar with the place. There was no corresponding unit in this remote place to inquire about this matter. Even though it was a very troublesome problem, Qin Xiaoyi had no idea what to do for the time being.
After everyone left, Ye Xiaomei looked at Mr. Yuan earnestly. He was still angry:
"Mr. Yuan, what do you mean by treason?"
Elder Yuan looked at Ye Xiaomei suddenly: "Grandfather, don't you remember who hurt you?"
