Chapter 330 Deep Virtual Reality 158
Gu Xi felt like she was sitting on pins and needles in another private room. There were delicious foods on the table that she used to be reluctant to eat, but she had no appetite. She was very worried about Xie Ning, after all, Xie Ning had embarrassed Norton's side so much at the meeting.
But she remained calm on the surface. She couldn't panic. Director Xie had said that in negotiations between the two sides, she couldn't afford to break down first. She had to control her emotions and let them serve the purpose.
"It's so difficult," Gu Xi thought to herself with a bitter face. She had been recruited into Huarui Technology Company through internal recruitment after graduating from school. Although some social skills were required in the laboratory, she was too transparent, so most of the time she only needed to do her own job.
After all, few people would have a conflict of interest with someone as inconspicuous as her. Her low profile also meant she was less envied by others. Whenever someone else tried to take advantage of an opportunity, she would back down.
Therefore, she had always been relegated to menial tasks, and it was only when Xie Ning specifically called on her that she stepped forward. Gu Xi understood perfectly why Xie Ning chose her over someone else: because she was honest...
But because of this, she wasn't very tactful. Gu Xi tried several times to build relationships with the assistants on the other side and try to find out some information, but when she opened her mouth, she didn't know what to say. Her social skills were indeed too low, and Gu Xi was a little frustrated.
The bracelet vibrated, but before Gu Xi could check the message, her assistants stood up. "Assistant Gu, Director Xu and the others have finished their meeting."
Xie Ning shook hands with Xu Sanci, her eyes smiling. "The android project will require more attention from Director Xu. If there are any suitable candidates, Director Xu should think of me first."
Missing you? Xu Sanci chuckled and muttered a curse about Zhou Bapi after Xie Ning and his men left. His assistant cautiously asked, but only received a cold snort in return.
"Moss, back to the experimental base."
"Okay, the route is being planned... Planning complete. Please fasten your seatbelts, we are about to enter the hollow orbit..."
Xie Ning sent some materials to Gu Xi and then noticed that she was a little down. Since she could participate more in the android project and learn more about the research process, Xie Ning was in a good mood.
Seeing Gu Xi's reaction, he asked her a few more questions.
Gu Xi hesitated for a moment, then finally shook her head. "It's nothing, I was just worried about you. Was the cooperation finalized? Did Director Xu give you any trouble?"
"Um."
Xie Ning didn't press further and, following Gu Xi's lead, changed the subject, "Their experiments have hit a bottleneck. Recently, they've been trying to have the alien test subjects devour other alien creatures to promote evolution..."
Regarding this, Xie Ning felt that Norton must have known about the possibility of evolution long ago, otherwise Professor Lillian would not have let 208 devour that eight-legged octopus when they were at sea.
208 also noticed significant changes after devouring those alien creatures, especially in terms of combat strength, which had greatly improved.
As for its appearance, 208's overall skin tone has changed somewhat compared to the initial photos, becoming lighter and more human-like. 208 is still evolving, albeit slowly, but some changes can still be seen from the data from her daily tests.
Therefore, Xie Ning suspects that 208 will eventually become like a human.
