#Aaron is about to go crazy#
There are several trending topics about this software competition.
It was clearly a highly professional competition that few people paid attention to, but because the contestant Shi Miao was so extraordinary, the popularity of this professional competition, which was rarely followed before, was raised to a level that surpassed the popularity of the entertainment industry.
Several related trending topics were displayed at the top of the search results.
Many onlookers learned about the competition because of this.
After browsing through various science popularization articles on Weibo, they became fans of Shi Miao.
Even the professional haters from before have all shut up this time. It's not that they don't want to criticize, but that they really can't find anything to criticize.
...
Qin Mingyue naturally also knew about Shi Miao's victory. She was curled up in bed with the curtains drawn tightly, letting in no light at all, except for the faint glow of her phone screen.
She hasn't had a good time these past few days either. Despite choosing to drop out of school, Qin Mo still insisted that she go abroad. No matter what Huo Shu said, it was no use. Even her beloved grandfather, Grandpa Qin, supported her going abroad.
She hadn't slept well because of this incident; there was a bluish tinge under her eyelids, her eyes were gloomy, and her complexion was poor.
He was a far cry from his previous arrogance and flamboyance; his bright face now showed an unusual gloom, and he looked somewhat disheveled and dejected.
She pursed her lips in frustration, scrolling through the trending topics on Weibo, her brows furrowed with gloom. She couldn't believe that Shi Miao, that bitch, could still win the championship even with a broken hand.
Qin Mingyue learned about Madam Li's hiring of someone to hit Shi Miao from Qin Mo. She was quite surprised, but even more disappointed. It was such a simple case of losing an arm; she wished the person had died...
Just then, there was a knock on the door, followed by Huo Shu's voice from outside, "Mingyue, it's Mom."
Qin Mingyue turned over, a hint of impatience flashing in her eyes. She glanced towards the door and said weakly, "Come in."
The next second, Huo Shu pushed the door open and came in. Looking at the dimly lit room, she sighed softly, walked to the window, and with a "whoosh," pulled open half of the curtains, instantly brightening the room.
Qin Mingyue frowned, raised her hand to pull the blanket up, and covered her head with it.
Huo Shu sat down by the bed, her eyes and brows revealing undisguised worry. "You should at least eat something. Lying in bed all day isn't a good thing!"
"I have no appetite," Qin Mingyue said in a muffled voice.
Huo Shu patted her through the blanket and said softly, "Actually, what your father said makes sense. Going abroad won't do you any harm. If you don't want to go alone, Mom will go with you."
Qin Mingyue suddenly peeked out from under the covers, her fingers gripping the blanket tightly. Her eyes darted around, filled with disbelief. She couldn't believe that even Huo Shu, who had always supported her, had turned against her. "Mom, you clearly said you would never let me go abroad! Why are you trying to persuade me now? Besides, I've already dropped out of school, what more do you want from me?"
Huo Shu looked at her with a headache, and reached out to hold her hand. "Neither your father nor your grandfather will budge on this matter, and your mother really has no other choice. What are you doing not going to school at your age?"
"I said I'm not going abroad!" Qin Mingyue turned her head away, pulled her hand back, her eyes stubborn, and said defiantly, "Then I can go to Peking University, I can go to the Institute of Physics, in short, I'm not going abroad!"
Huo Shu's expression was somewhat complicated. After a few seconds of silence, she said, "Mingyue, how do you understand? Since Ji Yanchen has already made his statement, who would dare to offend him for your sake? You can't even get into these places..."
Qin Mingyue's face stiffened, she clenched her fingertips tightly, her lips turned pale. Of course she knew the truth, but she just didn't want to admit it.
But she was unwilling to just slink away abroad like that.
Qin Mingyue turned her back to Huo Shu, closed her eyes, suppressed the surging hatred in her chest, and said in a calm voice, "Mom, you can go out first. I want to be alone."
Huo Shu sighed, knowing that she was angry and wouldn't listen to anything she was told. She had to let her figure it out herself. "Fine, think about it carefully yourself."
...
Just as Huo Shu closed the door and left, Qin Mingyue's phone, which was placed beside her pillow, suddenly rang.
She slowly opened her eyes, feeling extremely agitated. Her delicate brows furrowed, and she picked up her phone, intending to hang up.
The next second, when he caught sight of the caller ID, he paused when his fingertip was still a centimeter away from the screen, his eyes filled with deep surprise.
After hesitating for a few seconds, she pressed the answer button.
"Hey, Uncle..."
"You dropped out of Tsinghua University." Qin Chu's deep voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Uncle, how did you know?" Qin Mingyue sat up and leaned against the headboard. She hadn't expected that Qin Chu, who was abroad, was so well-informed.
Qin Chu didn't answer her question, but chuckled and got straight to the point: "I can get you into the scientific research institute in Independent Continent. How about it, are you interested?"
Qin Mingyue was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, then came to her senses and whispered, "Independent Continent Scientific Research Institute?"
She knew of the existence of the Independent Continent, having heard Qin Mo mention it a few times before, and also knew that the headquarters of the Tianzhi Group was located in the Independent Continent, but she was not very clear about the scientific research institute that Qin Chu mentioned.
"Yes, it's even more powerful than the research institutes in the capital. You should know that it's not a place that just anyone can enter."
Qin Mingyue wasn't completely overwhelmed by this sudden good news. She asked cautiously, "But why are you helping me?"
"You're my little niece, who else would I help if not you? I just happened to have a spot available, so I thought of you," Qin Chu said seriously.
Qin Mingyue bit her lip, her eyes flickering, and remained silent for a moment.
"I've heard about your feud with that Shi Miao. Believe me, once you get into the Independent Continent Scientific Research Institute, you can completely crush her under your feet." Qin Chu continued to urge more forceful advice.
Qin Mingyue's breath hitched, her fingers gripping the phone tightened suddenly, and her eyes shone with excitement. "Uncle, are you telling the truth?"
"Of course it's true."
"Uncle, I'm willing to go!" Qin Mingyue said without hesitation.
For her, nothing else matters as long as she can trample Shi Miao under her feet!
"Okay, I'll arrange for you to come to the Independent Continent in three days."
"I understand, thank you, Uncle!"
Qin Mingyue looked at the phone screen where she had just hung up the call, her eyes narrowing slightly. The unease she had felt for the past few days finally eased a little.
She pursed her lips, clicked on the webpage, and searched for the Independent Continent Science Institute. However, the search results were very limited, and everything seemed very mysterious...
