Chapter 1078 Mr. Qi's Clingy Wife 7
Director Zhang said from the side, "Sit down and talk. Don't just stand there."
He took out tea leaves from the cabinet, put them into ceramic cups, and deftly poured three cups, then presented them to them.
Xia Dexuan was quite reserved at first, but gradually relaxed after Director Zhang made a few jokes.
Qi Lu had previously reviewed Xia Dexuan's background check and asked in a low voice, "It is rumored that during your university years, you had a tense competitive relationship with a senior student. On the eve of an assessment that would affect your future, he was kidnapped and missed the opportunity."
"Later, that senior student pointed out that you were the one who did it, and soon after, he committed suicide by jumping off a building. What do you think of this incident?"
Xia Dexuan calmly said, "I don't have any personal relationship with that senior brother, but I have always admired him. However, since he was slandered, his image in my heart has plummeted."
"As for the kidnapping, it was just an excuse for him being late for the assessment; he didn't even have any evidence to prove that he was kidnapped."
“That opportunity was indeed very important. It’s understandable that my senior brother’s mentality collapsed after missing the opportunity and he did some abnormal things.”
"But he tried to slander me before he committed suicide..."
Xia Dexuan shook his head with a wry smile, "Never mind, respect for the dead is paramount."
Song Jinhuan stood beside Qi Lu, her eyes sparkling with gossip.
"Something just feels off."
"Did that senior brother value him that much? He was willing to risk his life to slander him?"
"Mr. Qi, his eyes are darting around; something's fishy!"
She couldn't help but raise her doubts.
Qi Lu remained expressionless and said calmly, "It's all in the past."
Xia Dexuan nodded repeatedly, "Now I'm focused entirely on the experiments, and the simpler the life, the better."
Director Zhang took the opportunity to ask a few more questions, and the conversation lasted for about half an hour.
"Xiao Qi, what do you think of Xia Dexuan?" Director Zhang returned after seeing the person off.
Qi Lu stopped there: "Some parts of the background check were too vague."
Director Zhang sighed, "Xia Dexuan is a promising young man with outstanding performance in experiments, making him a perfect role model for the talent introduction and cultivation policy."
"Moreover, his older brother is the CEO of Weihua Financial. If he is chosen as a role model, the investment for the experimental project will be secured."
"However, in these special times, we must be careful when choosing people. Xu Feiang's faction is counting on you to make a mistake."
Qi Lu smiled faintly and said, "Uncle Zhang, you've worked hard these past few days."
Director Zhang immediately expressed his dissatisfaction, saying, "Why are you speaking like family? Your father and I were in the same trench back then."
"However, since we have doubts about Xia Dexuan, we naturally cannot use him."
Who should we choose?
Qi Lu raised an eyebrow, confidently saying, "If we can work in the same lab, how bad can we be?"
Director Zhang immediately slapped his forehead, "I remember there's a young man from out of town in the lab, he's not bad either!"
"Isn't this more in line with our policy?"
"I'll investigate his background right now!"
Director Zhang is a very energetic person; once he decides to do something, he wants to get it done immediately and never stops.
In August, the high temperatures make it unbearably hot without air conditioning.
Seeing that Qi Lu ignored her, Song Jinhuan walked to the windy spot to enjoy the cool breeze.
It's cool!
I really want to eat ice cream!
Eat some chilled watermelon!
She glanced at Qi Lu, "Sigh—"
He won't buy it for her.
Qi Lu glanced at the woman seeking coolness without showing any emotion, wondering what she was thinking. She looked at him and sighed.
Could it be because he didn't confirm her guess earlier that she thought he was a smooth-talking, worldly person who couldn't distinguish right from wrong?
