Suya was quite surprised to receive a call from her cousin, whom she hadn't seen in a long time.
I only remember seeing him a few times during a holiday or festival when I was a child, and I heard later that he went abroad to study.
This happened many years ago.
If it weren't for this unexpected phone call, Suya would never have thought about this person at all.
Since they had made contact, there might be something she could help with. Following the address provided, Su Ya met her cousin, Hou Qian.
In fact, Hou Qian's mother and her own mother were cousins. The relationship becomes more distant as you go further back in time.
Upon meeting, I could still recall some childhood memories of her appearance.
"Cousin, you're getting more and more beautiful," Hou Qian said to Su Ya with a smile.
“My cousin is also very beautiful. When did she return to China? We didn’t hear anything about it,” Su Ya asked.
"I just got back not long ago and wanted to travel around the capital before going back to my hometown. I happened to call some of my elders to get in touch, and my aunt told me that you study in Beijing, so I thought I'd invite you out for a visit since it's nearby," Hou Qian said.
“Okay!” Su Ya was very generous and then took Hou Qian around to look around.
While shopping, Hou Qian kept glancing back. Su Ya noticed her subtle movements and asked, "What's wrong?"
"I have a feeling that someone is following us."
"Oh! It's nothing. You might be mistaken. There's a coffee shop over there, want to grab a drink?"
"Okay!" Hou Qian nodded in agreement. But as she left, she subconsciously glanced back.
I was actually incredibly nervous. I'd barely stepped off the plane when the authorities started watching me. How did they know I had a special status?
As the saying goes, if you have nothing to hide, you won't be haunted by ghosts. If you have a clear conscience, even if ghosts knock on your door, what's the harm in doing nothing wrong?
Hou Qian pretended to be calm, but many of her subtle actions betrayed her.
Luckily, I didn't run into a professional, or I would have been exposed long ago.
After the two entered the coffee shop and ordered drinks, Su Ya asked, "Cousin, which country have you been in these past few years?"
"I studied in Canada, and later went to the United States. After that, I spent a year in Europe," Hou Qian said.
At this moment, Su Ya also noticed the small diamond ring on Hou Qian's hand and asked, "Cousin got married."
"They got married, then divorced. They couldn't get along."
"Are you going back this time?"
"I'm not very happy with what I'm doing abroad, so I plan to go back to China to find a suitable job. But I just got back and haven't decided on a direction yet."
"What was your major before?" Su Ya asked curiously.
"With a semiconductor major, someone like me can only get a job in a public institution or research institute. I heard that the rice industry is doing well, so I'd like to give it a try. It's also close to my hometown." Hou Qian finished speaking and blinked at her cousin across from her.
The atmosphere might suddenly become calm.
Hou Qian seemed a little embarrassed and stirred her coffee to ease the tension.
What can she do if the other party doesn't follow the script? She's already made it very clear. Why is she pretending to be stupid? Shouldn't she take the initiative to help introduce them because they're relatives?
If Hou Qian didn't know that Su Ya and Xing Baohua had a relationship, perhaps things wouldn't be so awkward.
But she knows the problem!
According to common sense in China, Su Ya should have said at this point, "Cousin wants to go to Da Mi! I happen to have connections, you can go with just one phone call."
Saying that will make me look good, and if I just call her, the matter will be settled.
But Su Ya remained silent, not saying a word, leaving Hou Qian with no chance to respond.
Moreover, Hou Qian didn't dare to point it out, even though she already knew that Su Ya had a deep connection with rice.
Oh dear, I feel so frustrated and upset.
Coupled with the persistent feeling that someone was following her, Hou Qian became suspicious. She sensed that her situation was precarious!
Let's avoid another situation where we fail before we even get started, and we're already in trouble before we even get the money.
The coffee didn't taste good anymore, and I couldn't even enjoy strolling the streets. I made up an excuse to separate from Suya first.
On the way back to the hotel, I used the agility techniques I had been training for a month to stroll around and shake things off.
Actually, her intuition was correct. She wasn't following her, but Su Ya, secretly protecting the power, which was misunderstood by her cousin.
After a day of running around, I was like a startled rabbit, so I booked a train ticket and headed back to my hometown, the capital of Shandong Province.
To be honest, the connections here are quite strong. If you want to go to the rice region, you can get in by pulling some strings.
She graduated from an overseas university and worked for several years. She should be considered a top talent.
Hou Qian was unaware that all of Da Mi's laboratories were secretly investigating. Once the counter-espionage process was initiated, all calls would be recorded and analyzed.
Fortunately, the main road wasn't connected to the internet.
Xing Baohua took some time, took his laptop, and organized all the information about quantum chips that he had extracted from the IBM hard drive, and went to the Institute of Photolithography to find Zhang Dongshuo.
"Take a good look at these materials and think about your ideas," Xing Baohua said after handing the notebook to Zhang Dongshuo.
"Mr. Xing, can we proceed step by step?" Zhang Dongshuo didn't take the laptop or look at the information on it; he was just a little annoyed by Xing Baohua's practice of adding projects on the spot.
This chip concept, which chip architecture, and so on.
He's a human brain, not a CPU. Even a CPU would be furious if Xing Baohua, who keeps finding him every now and then, started to smoke.
"Don't rush, take a look first. It's very important. My private jet was bombed because of this information. Several of my bodyguards were killed."
Only then did Zhang Dongshuo look at Xing Baohua seriously and ask, "You're not joking, are you?"
“I don’t usually joke around, really, especially when it comes to technical matters,” Xing Baohua said seriously.
Right after Xing Baohua finished speaking, Zhang Dongshuo picked up his notebook and started looking at the relevant literature, data tests, and so on about quantum superconductivity and quantum chips.
