Chapter 52 Dazzling Her
It’s just that my past self was blinded by the filter called liking, and saw all his shortcomings as advantages.
Xu Yueqing shook off Jiang Chejin's hand.
The skin that had touched him still seemed to have a disgusting sticky feeling.
She was about to speak.
At this moment, the lights in the entire backstage dimmed with a snap, and only the stairs leading to the podium were lit.
Immediately afterwards, a steady and loud voice spread throughout the entire conference hall through the microphone.
"Hello everyone, I'm Chen Gang."
On the podium, Professor Chen adjusted his glasses, the lenses reflecting sharp light.
"Let's not waste any more time. Today, I'd like to introduce you to the final and most important member of our 'Pangu' team."
Professor Chen's eyes were fixed on the corner backstage.
"Xu Yueqing!"
The moment the words fell, another even brighter spotlight suddenly shone down, right on Xu Yueqing.
At the same time, her clear figure was captured by the camera backstage and instantly projected onto the huge electronic screen above the podium.
Buzz...
The entire hall, like a pond into which a huge rock had been thrown, instantly exploded.
Whispers came from all directions, merging into a noisy wave.
"Who is this? I don't think I've ever seen this face in any of the AI-related competitions at Kyoto University before."
"Where did he come from? He became a core member straight away? Professor Chen is making such a big deal out of this?"
"What's your name? Xu Yueqing? Why...does this name sound familiar to me?"
Xu Yingluo sat in the crowd, listening to the discussions behind her, staring intently at the face on the big screen in front of her that she hated to the core.
The color gradually drained from her face until it turned pale.
Her nails dug deep into the soft flesh of her palm, causing a sharp sting, but she seemed not to feel it.
How could that be?
How could it be Xu Yueqing?
Why is she standing here wearing her institute uniform?
Xu Yingluo's back teeth creaked as she gritted her teeth. The jealousy she felt was like a poisonous ivy, entwining madly around her heart and making it almost impossible for her to breathe.
She wished she could rush onto the stage right now and tear apart Xu Yueqing's face that was pretending to be calm!
This bitch!
It must be her!
What kind of shady and despicable means did she use to climb into the bed of that old man Chen Gang!
right!
It must be like this!
That beam of light, like the most precise life-chasing talisman in a stage play, was firmly nailed to Xu Yueqing.
At this moment, Jiang Chejin felt a buzzing sound, and the string in his head broke.
It was as if all the sounds of the world had vanished, leaving only the nonsense he had just said, echoing wildly in his ears.
"Come and act in front of my uncle?"
"Do you think he'd be interested in someone like you?"
goods?
What kind of stuff?
Professor Chen Gang personally named the most core member of the Pangu Project after waiting for five years?
Jiang Chejin froze in place, like a stone statue weathered in an instant.
He watched Xu Yueqing, the woman whose wrist he had held tightly and whose wrist he had verbally humiliated a second ago, walk towards the podium, bathed in the spotlight of the public's attention.
Her back was straight.
Every step seemed to be stepping on his heart. It wasn't heavy, but it made his entire chest numb.
That back figure was proud and determined.
So strange.
It was so unfamiliar that it made him feel uneasy.
But damn familiar.
Jiang Chejin's pupils suddenly constricted.
