Of course, there was another person at the scene who looked extremely ugly. He could hardly control his shock and almost slammed his head on the table when the PPT was projected on the computer.

He hid in the corner and listened to Bethia's entire presentation gloomily. Then he saw Ying Lao take the lead in applauding and praising, and Ailinwo followed with pride and praise...

The confusion, doubt, unwillingness, and resentment in his heart, the huge psychological gap hit his nerves, so that he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time after Bethia finished speaking, and was still immersed in his own world.

Until it was his turn to go up later, he couldn't adjust his state. He stuttered and made frequent mistakes when speaking, causing several bigwigs in the Sixth Continent and the senior executives of the Institute to frown.

He finally looked depressed and ended his part with a broken jar.

...

Outside.

Qiao Nian took the USB drive, said goodbye to the technician, and returned to the crowd to find the black man.

"Where did you go just now?" As soon as the black man saw her, he pulled her over and anxiously asked Qiao Nian about the situation.

Qiao Nian pushed his hand away and just said: "...The problem has been solved, don't worry."

When she felt a hot gaze falling on her.

She looked over and saw the man in a suit and leather shoes who came out of the conference room looking in their direction, his eyes fixed on her hand that pushed the black man away.

Qiao Nian lowered her head and saw her hand on the black man's arm, so intimate that it seemed like they had a special relationship.

The corner of her mouth twitched, and she suddenly understood what Ye Wangchuan was looking at. She dodged the black man's touch like lightning and pulled a safe distance from him.

"What's wrong?" The black man looked at her in confusion as she dodged him, touched the back of his head, and turned back.

Following the direction Qiao Nian just looked, he saw Bethea and the others coming out.

He didn't think too much and happily greeted him: "Captain!"

Bethea came over to meet him: "Where is the chemist, the USB flash drive..."

"The file bag that was left in the laboratory yesterday was not given to you by the chemist." The black man interrupted her and explained quickly.

"I don't know what the USB drive you're talking about is, but that should be what the chemist modified for you. She just told me that the problem has been solved."

"Where is she?" Bethia looked around, but didn't see Qiao Nian.

The black man also helped her look for her, but didn't see her. He said blankly: "It's strange. She was talking to me here before, how come she disappeared in the blink of an eye."

...

Qiao Nian followed the location Ye Wangchuan sent her and walked into the corner without surveillance.

The door of the fire escape was suddenly opened, and a tall figure grabbed her wrist and pulled her in.

Qiao Nian was pulled into a warm embrace, and the fingers on her wrist tightened their grip.

The darkness instantly enveloped the two of them. Ye Wangchuan hooked his neck, but his eyes were surprisingly bright. The two pairs of eyes met, and each saw his own shadow in the other's pupils.

"What did you call me over for?"

"Who was that man just now?"

The two spoke almost at the same time.

Qiao Nian understood immediately and raised her eyebrows: "Who do you think he is?"

Ye Wangchuan's eyes gradually darkened like inkstones, and he raised his fingertips and moved them up along her palm inch by inch. The fingertips with thin calluses meandered across her skin, bringing a tingling sensation like an electric shock.

Qiao Nian just frowned and didn't have time to speak.

The lights in the safety passage suddenly went out.

In the narrow space, only each other's breathing could be heard. (End of this chapter)
