“Pei Yunge is participating in the heir selection? Do you think she has the right?”

Xie Jiaye had always admired this old man on the sickbed, but this time, he could not understand him. He could not suppress the anger in his voice.

Xie Zhongqiu shook his head meaningfully and said, “Jiaye, you’re too impulsive and don’t think about the overall situation.”

“What do you mean by taking the big picture into account? Grandpa, we’ve groomed so many young researchers in Continent K. Which one of them isn’t better than Pei Yunge?”

Xie Jiaye clenched his fists as veins popped out on the back of his hand. He laughed coldly. “If we let Pei Yunge participate, does our first branch have any face?”

“It’s only when she embarrasses the first branch completely that the sixth and fourth branches will think that we’re at a dead end.”

The old man was so thin that his cheekbones were high and his wrinkled skin hung on his face. Only his protruding and turbid eyes were filled with ridicule and coldness.

Xie Jiaye was stunned and did not understand his intentions for a moment.

“You’ve been by my side for so long, but you still don’t understand.”

Xie Zhongqiu continued to ask, “Are you sure this Pei Yunge is only from the International Musicians’ Association? I saw her in the Shi family’s training camp back then.”

Xie Jiaye said, “The Shi family? The information I found in my investigation shows that she never came to Continent K.”

He frowned. “Could this Pei Yunge be Old Master Qin’s scheme?”

Xie Zhongqiu laughed. “My younger brother is loyal and looks down on money and profit. He hates the Xie family the most.”

Xie Jiaye hesitated. “Then should I go and investigate?”

“No need. Ever since Wang Hui brought his daughter out to set up their own business, the Shi family’s foundation has been damaged because Wang Hui poached a group of researchers from Confederation 191.”

Xie Zhongqiu’s voice was cold. “If the Shi family wanted to avoid the war, they wouldn’t have participated in the internal strife of the Xie family. We can’t ask about their insider information either.”

“But if we only made a deal with that fool from the Wang family to find out why a little girl appeared in the Shi family’s training camp, it would be a huge loss.”

Xie Zhongqiu turned around and asked him in return, “Besides, do you think the Wang family will be ours once this deal is negotiated? Don’t be stupid. You’re still causing trouble internally and externally at a time like this.”

His smile was cold. “My good brother has even groomed so many outstanding children. How enviable.”

“She’s the youngest musician in the International Musicians’ Association. What a pity.”

Just in case, the fourth and sixth branches would definitely not let Pei Yunge leave Continent K completely.

…

After settling the company matters in Continent K, Pei Yunge was suddenly interested and was ready to go to the academic exchange venue in Continent K to take a look.

However, she never thought that the moment she entered, she would hear everyone discussing Yun University’s last place.

As the next competition was between Yun University and K University, Pei Yunge sat in the audience for a while.

They saw a few young PhD students who were not even 20 years old. They were almost rubbing against PhD students from Yun University.

It was no wonder that as a Yun University student, Pei Yunge rarely heard about academic exchanges in Continent K.

Yun University had already experienced such a scene for more than twenty years.

Of course, Yun University had top geniuses, but their numbers were far fewer than those elite institutes with good resources.

“Yun University is too depraved. It’s 21 to 5. Is there a need to continue competing?”

The expressions of the Yun University students present were ugly. Even Director Bo’s expression was stiff and he could not look up in such an international exchange competition.

This kind of suppression was simply too mentally consuming.

Even the commentator was humiliating the Yun University players present in a joking tone. “It looks like Yun University can’t escape its previous fate.”

“In my opinion, if anyone from Country A can solve the remaining questions correctly, why don’t we give Yun University another chance and count it as them entering the second round?”

“After all, we’ve been stuck in this round for so long, right?”
