?Chapter 883: Chapter 883: Just Any Student Can Defeat Professor Qiao Chapter 883: Chapter 883: Just Any Student Can Defeat Professor Qiao Adrian’s comment made his team burst into laughter, clearly with an air of superiority.
“Even lowly rats dare to challenge me, if you have the guts, come out and face me head-on.”
Adrian spoke these words in Chinese, for his father was Chinese and he had faced racial discrimination from an early age, which had led him to despise the other half of his heritage. This also made him look down upon Chinese technology.
As for the Tianqi Research Institute, even though they had developed many works of wonder, he still deemed them nothing more than fancy but flimsy contrivances that wouldn’t stand the test of time.
He knew too little about MR.Q to be clear about them at the moment.
And regarding Professor Qiao, he had heard she was very young. How could someone so young be so successful? It must really be the team’s achievement.
Arrogant and secure in his vast experience, Adrian hadn’t considered anyone in China worth his time on this trip at the behest of his peers.
“Mr. Liang, welcome to China.”
Huo Yaozong, ignoring the displeasure flashing in Adrian’s eyes upon hearing his Chinese surname, greeted him cheerfully, “Finally, we meet in person. You must be tired from the journey. My name is Huo Yaozong, Huo Lin’s third uncle. He asked me to pick you up.”
Adrian glanced at Huo Yaozong arrogantly and reached out to shake his hand, emphasizing, “Please address me as Adrian or Dr. Adrian.”
Huo Yaozong had indeed overheard Adrian’s contemptuous comments about Chinese technology. Even though he disliked the people at Tianqi Research Institute, he was displeased by their remarks, and that’s why he had deliberately used Adrian’s Chinese name.
Knowing that Adrian disliked being thought of as Chinese, yet now being reminded, Huo Yaozong kept a smile on his face, “Dr. Adrian, my apologies. Please come with me, the car is ready. We’ll head to the hotel to give you a welcome reception, and Huo Lin will join us shortly.”
Seeing Huo Yaozong being tactful, Adrian’s expression softened slightly, “Let’s go.”
He walked past Huo Yaozong with his hands behind his back, his team following behind him without a sideways glance.
Huo Yaozong looked annoyed.
“Dad, what’s with their attitude, do they really see us as mere little receptionists?” Huo Feng, who had grown up privileged within the Huo Family, had never encountered people so arrogant.
“Hmph, however much he dislikes China, half of his blood is still Chinese,” Huo Yaozong said, infuriated.
If it weren’t for his eagerness to see Adrian embarrass Tianqi Research Institute, to vent his own frustration, he would have walked away already.
“For now, he’s a revered Buddha we have to entertain, especially since he was invited by Huo Lin,” Huo Yaozong swallowed his pride.
Seeing his father relent, Huo Feng said no more.
However, he had a feeling that Adrian’s visit might not go smoothly.
…
Today, Fu Yun had made arrangements with Jiang Jing to show her around the scenic spots of Yuncheng.
Jiang Jing was intent on forging a good relationship with Fu Yun, so she went out of her way to be hospitable, which only made Fu Yun see her more favorably, reminding her of her kind-hearted younger sister, Fu Yao.
Thinking of her long-lost relative, a flicker of sorrow crossed Fu Yun’s eyes. They had been close as children; why had Yaoyao betrayed her, causing her husband to suffer severe psychological trauma from the failure of an AI system, leading to his death years ago.
