Chapter 157 Don't Judge a Book by Its Cover
Hao Lingfeng frowned.
Looking at Song Nanxi, who was fair-skinned and looked like a female college student, he couldn't help but judge her by her appearance.
"Miss Song studied electrical engineering?"
Song Nanxi crossed her arms and looked down at the glass wall.
"I never went to college."
Hao Lingfeng was speechless for a moment, then emphasized, "Miss Song, this is not a place for us to have fun."
If you want to play, go somewhere else!
For rich girls like them, with money in hand, where can't they squander it?
"We are very busy, so please excuse us."
"This……"
Peng Jing felt awkward, but she couldn't really let the young lady lose face.
She said, "Teacher Hao, we'll just look around from outside and won't bother you..."
"Can we go in and take a look?"
Before Peng Jing could finish speaking, Song Nanxi pointed inside and said calmly.
Peng Jing choked, looking at Song Nanxi with a complicated expression.
Hao Lingfeng's face turned cold. "Miss Song, I think I've made myself clear enough!"
He turned to look at Manager Chen, "You've wasted a lot of my time."
“Ms. Song, as you can see, research is a very tedious job, completely different from what is shown in the movies.”
Manager Chen clearly also regarded Song Nanxi as a wealthy young lady who was just dabbling in the field, but he knew a little more than Hao Lingfeng, who was engrossed in his research and oblivious to the world around him.
For example, he knew that Song Nanxi not only knew nothing about scientific research, but was also an entertainment star.
"How about I take you for a tour of our industrial park? There's an exhibition hall here where you can see everything that XtalPi has researched."
Manager Chen thought this was more interesting.
They all thought Song Nanxi would agree.
Song Nanxi didn't even look at them, and suddenly pointed to the young researcher who was closest to her and said, "He made a mistake in this step."
"what……"
Hao Lingfeng was amused and said, "Miss Song, our experiment doesn't need guidance from an outsider..."
Song Nanxi finally spared him a glance, her lips twitching as she sneered, "Anyone who didn't know better would think you were some kind of high-level national researchers, so arrogant? You didn't even look, how do you know I'm wrong?"
"Miss Song, you..."
Peng Jing was startled. Hao Lingfeng was their chief technical engineer, poached by their CEO, Xiao Song, at a high salary.
Even CEO Song is not someone you can easily offend!
"Teacher Hao, please don't be angry. Miss Song was just saying it casually..."
Song Nanxi added fuel to the fire, saying, "You can't even admit you're wrong? Jingtai pays your salary so you can act like a boss here."
"Grandma, please say less!" Peng Jing said helplessly.
I'm really torn.
Hao Lingfeng's expression was indeed very unpleasant, but he was engrossed in his research and was no match for Song Nanxi when it came to arguing.
"I'm not arguing with you! Manager Chen, take her away!" he threatened coldly. "If she doesn't leave, then I will!"
Hao Lingfeng has the confidence to do so.
Song Nanxi: "Goodbye and don't bother seeing me off."
"you--"
Just then, the researcher suddenly jumped up and frantically searched for a fire extinguisher.
The solvent in the container suddenly burst into flames!
Hao Lingfeng was taken aback.
Song Nanxi: "Your main research focus on lithium batteries is energy storage and lifespan, right? The industry has reached a bottleneck for major manufacturers. Continuing to use materials like iron phosphate... why not try using..."
Hao Lingfeng, who had initially looked angry, gradually became engrossed in the conversation.
As Song Nanxi stopped, he urged, "Anything else?"
Song Nanxi glanced at him speechlessly, "Why should I tell you? Didn't you say I'm an outsider and don't accept guidance?"
She brushed off imaginary dust from her hands, turned around, and said, "Let's go visit the exhibition hall."
Hao Lingfeng opened his mouth, feeling aggrieved.
But his desire to conduct research prevailed, and he anxiously grabbed Song Nanxi.
"I'm sorry, Ms. Song, I admit I judged you by your appearance just now. Didn't you want to visit our lab? Come on! I'll show you around, and we can talk as we go!"
The key is to have a good talk with him about the idea she just mentioned!
Song Nanxi raised an eyebrow, revealing an expression of complete control, and was pulled away.
Peng Jing and Manager Chen were left looking at each other in bewilderment.
Song Nanxi remained there until the afternoon.
When Song Mo called, Peng Jing didn't know what to say.
Song Mo: "She didn't cause any trouble, did she? Just give her a perfunctory answer, and be careful not to let her offend Teacher Hao."
Peng Jing: "...I've already offended them."
"what?"
The voice on the other end of the phone suddenly rose in pitch.
Peng Jing quickly added, "But... you've calmed him down again."
She didn't know how to say it, but actually Hao Lingfeng had comforted himself. Not only that, he even let Song Nanxi personally handle the experimental equipment.
A group of students and researchers surrounded Song Nanxi, three layers deep, making it impossible for her to get through.
Peng Jing herself had no idea what had happened.
But there was one thing she felt it was necessary to let Song Mo know.
"Mr. Song, Miss Song seems quite capable."
Song Mo scoffed, "Since there's nothing else, I'll hang up. Your job is to keep an eye on her so she doesn't cause trouble or offend anyone. Report any problems to me immediately."
After saying that, he ended the call.
Peng Jing took a deep breath. Okay, maybe Xiao Song is always right.
……
Hao Lingfeng took the initiative to ask to exchange contact information with Song Nanxi.
Song Nanxi left the research lab and had no intention of returning to Jingtai.
Grandpa Song called specifically to ask how she was adapting, clearly concerned about whether his granddaughter was being bullied at work.
Song Nanxi stood by the roadside, holding her phone and chuckling, "Besides your dear grandson, no one should bully me."
Old Master Song: "..."
Qi Yu opened the car door, and the prince, who was squatting in the passenger seat, saw his mother whom he hadn't seen all day and immediately started whining to get down.
But it was afraid of going too high, and after whimpering for a long time, it didn't dare to go any further.
"Little coward."
Song Nanxi scooped it into her arms and got into the car.
After hanging up the phone, I saw that my phone, which had been silent all day, had received hundreds of new WeChat messages.
Chi Hao was amazed.
Chi Hao: [As expected of my Sister Song, she's so ambitious. She's only been back for a short time and she's already joined the company?]
Chi Hao: [Will I still be able to invite you out for drinks in the future? Won't I be even busier? [Tears]]
The dream of 900 million young men: [?]
Chi Hao: [Yo, Sister Song's off work!]
Chi Hao: [Want to grab a drink?]
Chi Hao: [Location Sharing]
Zhuoye.
Song Nanxi glanced at the bar's name and was about to type that she wouldn't go.
Suddenly her fingers stopped. In her previous life, before Ruan Xi died, someone photographed her drinking heavily in Zhuoye.
No wonder it looked familiar.
She simply called Ruan Xi and asked where she was.
The phone went unanswered for a long time. Song Nanxi stroked the dog's head, a thoughtful look flashing in her eyes.
Just as the call was about to automatically disconnect, Ruan Xi answered the phone.
The first sentence is: "Nanxi, save me!"
Noisy background noise, then the call ended a second later.
