Chapter 594: Who Said No One?

Hearing Zheng Zhi’s words, Jing Fei immediately said, “Oh, right. Boss asked me to remind you. Don’t forget what you’re going to do. You’re going to be Sister Xi’s assistant this time. Do you understand what it means to be her assistant? You have to be obedient, my good son. If you don’t want Boss to loosen your muscles again, remember to open your mouth today!”

Zheng Zhi’s face darkened. “…Scram!”

…

…

Xue Xi spent the night at home and brought a scarf to school the next day. She wanted to find a chance to give it to Omnipotent Boss.

On the third day, she asked Yu Da to gather at Lab 302.

Today, the project was officially established. She wanted to gather talents and start distributing work to everyone. Studying the light source was not a simple task.

They needed top-notch personnel from the four major departments.

Moreover, other than the people who came, they also needed to buy equipment. Five hundred thousand yuan was definitely not enough. They had to find someone to make a list, and the preparation work was very complicated.

Xue Xi held the documents she had sorted out in her hands for the past two days. When she stood up and was about to leave, Xie Yingying and Li Zixia looked at each other and followed behind her. “Sister Xi, we’ll follow you!”

Xue Xi looked at the two of them in confusion. “…What can you do?”

This time, she needed to hire third-year, fourth-year, and even graduate students. After all, these people had already learned the fundamentals and could apply them directly.

On the other hand, Xie Yingying and Li Zixia had not even finished learning freshman mathematics. Would they be able to work if they went?

Xie Yingying said, “I can serve tea!”

Li Zixia: “I can help you settle scores!”

Xue Xi: “…Alright. If you guys don’t find it boring.”

The two of them heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time, Xie Yingying and Li Zixia looked at each other. They would also have to do scientific research while they were there to make up the numbers, alright?

Sister Xi did not care about the recruitment and passed it all to Yu Da.

However, the two of them saw that there was not a single person who’d signed up under the recruitment thread!

Afraid that there would only be Sister Xi and Yu Da in the laboratory today, the two of them decided to make up the numbers. At least, they could liven up the atmosphere and make it seem like there were more people, right?

…

On the other side.

Yu Da arrived at Lab 302 early in the morning. He had already obtained the key to this room yesterday. At this moment, he was sitting by the door on a chair he’d brought there, staring blankly ahead.

Up until now, there was still no one who registered. It was already nine in the morning and Xue Xi would arrive in five minutes.

However, he still did not see anyone.

So, was it really impossible to recruit anyone?

Yu Da’s phone vibrated. He immediately lowered his head in excitement, only to see that it was not someone who was coming, but a message from the Everyday Operations WeChat group.

Bottle: “Do you want us to go over and make up the numbers?”

The corners of Yu Da’s lips twitched. “You guys are from the journalism department or the finance department. What can you do when you come?”

Bottle: “I’m from the finance department. I can help settle accounts!”

Water: “I can help move things.”

Flight: “I can sing a song to cheer everyone up and relax.”

Fang Fang: “…Can I pretend to disappear on the spot?”

The rest: “…”

The corners of Yu Da’s lips twitched as he sent a message: “Come, come quickly!”

At least, with these few people here, this huge laboratory would not seem empty!

The three directors were too much.

They clearly knew that Sister Xi’s project could not be established, but they actually gave her such a huge laboratory. He stood there alone and could hear his own echoes!

At this moment, he suddenly heard footsteps.

Yu Da hurriedly looked up and saw Xue Xi walking over with Xie Yingying and Li Zixia.

Yu Da: “…”

When Xue Xi entered, she saw Yu Da sitting alone at the door.

She stared at Yu Da, who was sitting with his legs crossed and looking up at her.

The two of them looked at each other for a while before Xue Xi looked up and asked, “Where are the rest?”

Yu Da: “…”

The corners of Yu Da’s lips twitched. “I’ll post another thread to recruit more people!”

Xue Xi was stunned. “Oh.”

Hence, after a while, it became four people sitting on chairs. They sat at the door and rested their chin on their hands as they looked at the corridor quietly.

Xie Yingying, Li Zixia, and Yu Da had a look of despair on their faces.

It was already 9:05 AM, but there was still no one.

The three of them carefully looked at Xue Xi, only to see Sister Xi holding her chin and looking ahead blankly as though she was thinking of something.

Xie Yingying asked, “Sister Xi, what are you thinking?”

Xue Xi: “I’m thinking about how to distribute the tasks when they arrive later.”

The three of them: “…”

Sister Xi, wake up. There’s no one coming at all!

Not far from the corridor, Zheng Zhi stood and leaned against the wall. He stared at the four people at the door and found it ridiculous.

The boss did not allow him to mock Xue Xi in front of him, nor did he allow him to say anything nasty, but he did not say…

Zheng Zhi took a photo and sent it to Jing Fei. He quickly typed: “Do you see that? She can’t even recruit anyone and still want to do a project? She’s really indulging in fantasy!”

Jing Fei: “It’s not time yet. If the project is funded, how can she not recruit anyone?”

Zheng Zhi sneered. “Everyone is not a fool. This is clearly a project that can’t be done. How can anyone come? No matter how much money is given, it’s useless! Moreover, how can people who’s only attracted by money be the most impressive in every industry?”

Jing Fei: “…”

Zheng Zhi: “Just admit that you’re a boot-licker. Don’t help Xue Xi clear her name again! She’s useless!”

…

…

At the same time, in Class Two of the Math Department.

There was linear algebra today. Li Xuekai followed everyone in. He put on his earphones and took out the graduate students’ questions to read.

He had participated in the Mathematical Olympiad since he was young and had already finished all the courses for university and graduate students. Now, he had been invited by several professors to join projects, and they were all very promising. He had yet to decide which one to choose and had been having a headache recently.

At this moment, he suddenly heard someone say, “Sister Xi is also going to fail this time. I heard that until now, there hasn’t been a more professional and formidable curve-wrecker.”

“If she can’t recruit anyone, she can’t possibly do it all herself, right? There are so many things!”

Li Xuekai was stunned. Sister Xi?

He took off his earphones and looked at the person beside him. “What did you just say?”

…

…

Physics Department.

The former class president of Bin City International High School’s experimental class, Zhou Zhen, was currently in class. Although he barely managed to get into Huaxia University during the examination, his physics knowledge was solid and he was stimulated by Xue Xi. Hence, he had been studying the professional textbooks hard during this summer vacation and had already finished all the courses in the university.

He still wanted to build a project to study together.

At this moment, he switched on his phone and took a look. He realized that the first popular thread on the school’s forum was a recruitment thread.

Recruitment for a light source project?

Zhou Zhen had originally intended to withdraw, but he suddenly saw that the initiator of the project was… Sister Xi?

Zhou Zhen suddenly stood up.

…

At this moment, many people at Huaxia University and Huazhong University realized that this project…

At 10 AM sharp.

Still, no one came.

Xie Yingying and Li Zixia looked at Xue Xi worriedly, afraid that she would take things too hard and feel sad…

Yu Da lowered his head in guilt.

Zheng Zhi sneered.

No one came on the first day of the project. How ironic…

Just as everyone was having their own thoughts, footsteps suddenly came from the door…
