Her eyes met Qingli's. Neither of them were the type to back down or feel awkward. They looked at each other for a few seconds, then Ye Shang frowned, lowered his eyes, and looked away.
Qingli was also somewhat surprised. This seemed to be the first time he had encountered such an unfriendly gaze. He had been perceptive of emotions since childhood, and even now, he could almost always discern the emotion behind a girl's gaze.
He felt that the girl was looking at him with some disgust.
A look of disgust? Haha, this was the first time he had ever seen such a look in a girl's eyes. Before, no girl had ever shown him any disgust; they had almost always given him expressions of joy and delight.
If Ye Shang knew what he was thinking, she would be speechless. She frowned because she had been standing there for a long time and wanted to sit down, but there were too many people and it was not appropriate to bring out only one stool.

After calming the ordinary people down, the leaders began to hold a meeting to discuss how to make arrangements for the rescued people.
Qingli sat in the chair, leaning back, letting the other base leaders discuss the matter.
This was a fairly clean meeting room, surrounded by the heads or second-in-commands of various bases, all engaged in a heated argument about how many researchers could be brought back.
Han Yi sat below, his face grim. This time, their base suffered the most heavy casualties, losing many superhumans.
"I only have two requests: three hundred agricultural researchers and two hundred medical researchers. The rest you can distribute among yourselves." After stating her requests, Qingli got up and left.
Zhuo Xia and the others remained in the conference room to continue their discussions with them.
The others were practically spitting blood; he had ordered nearly half of them, but that was the First Base, and no one could beat them.
This is a resource for the entire city of S. There are only about a thousand top scholars in total, and now he has directly ordered five hundred of them.
Han Yi's mind was racing. He only needed to bring back 150 people, preferably 100 agriculturalists and 50 medicalists.
These are all top researchers in S City. The annual expenses for these people are considerable, so they are naturally very capable.
Qingli walked out of the conference room, ignoring the arguments inside. As long as he could get the benefits he needed, that was enough. As the current leader, the First Base naturally deserved the best resources.
He wandered aimlessly. The factory covered a relatively large area; otherwise, it wouldn't have been able to accommodate tens of thousands of people.
He hadn't walked far when he paused, his dark eyes narrowing slightly. What a coincidence? We've met again.
Not far away, Ye Shang was lying on a bench. This was the back door of the factory, with some long benches and long tables set up for workers to sit on during their breaks.
Ye Shang sensed someone approaching and assumed it was Xie Qingye because their gait was somewhat similar. So she didn't open her eyes and continued lying down.
Qingli's movements were quite significant; at least he felt she could sense them, but she didn't open her eyes.
He thought for a moment, then continued walking forward.
Ye Shang had no choice but to ask, "What is it now?"
She opened her eyes, stood up, and saw a handsome young man walking in front of her. The smile in her eyes gradually faded.
Qingli could clearly see the change in her eyes and felt slightly uncomfortable, but the next moment she said, "It's nothing, just came for a walk."
Ye Shang frowned slightly. Seeing him sitting on the other bench without saying anything, she simply lay down again. She couldn't go far; she still had to wait for Xie Qingye and the others to arrive.
Seeing her lie down again, Qingli asked, "Are you from the Fifth Base?"
Ye Shang ignored her. Beautiful people are all cunning, and she didn't want to get involved with them, especially such a top-tier beauty, whose cunning was probably more numerous than a hornet's nest.
Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, Qingli felt a little helpless. This was the first time he had ever done this. However, he also had his own pride, so he simply stopped talking and sat aside fiddling with his personal terminal.
