Chapter 340: Chapter 340: Does It Affect You?

Within the team, Xia Xingzhi was in charge, and the recent work had been going very smoothly.

However, Xia Xingzhi wasn’t strong in data analysis, so he had always let Xia Mingzhu take on the role of handling the data.

After receiving the data from Xia Mingzhu, Xia Xingzhi ran it once to confirm there were no issues and said, "Then tomorrow you will be the one to operate this part."

Xia Mingzhu nodded.

"Xingzhi, not bad, you’re getting more and more skilled," someone approached Xia Xingzhi to chat.

"Junior brother Xia is indeed remarkable, I, as his senior, am thoroughly outmatched."

Initially, when Xia Xingzhi became the person in charge, there were indeed some opinions within the group, with many who were openly or secretly discontented.

But as the project progressed, the number of people holding that view had been diminishing. The praise for Xia Xingzhi was now genuine and heartfelt.

Xia Xingzhi spoke modestly with everyone.

After work, getting into the car, Xia Mingzhu’s heart grew increasingly uncomfortable.

She had completed the important data and was going to be the operator herself.

To showcase to the powerful foreign nations the formidable capabilities of their own country in satellite launches.

But all the praises and benefits were going to Xia Xingzhi, why?

Just because he was the candidate personally endorsed by Fu Qifang?

If tomorrow’s project exhibition is a success, it would immensely boost his prospects, while she would still remain an obscure team member. In the future, as Xia Xingzhi’s career soars and he’s in charge of even more important projects, what about her?

Returning home and seeing her displeased expression, Madame Xia the Second asked, "Is work very stressful?"

"It’s fine."

Madame Xia the Second served her a bowl of bird’s nest and complained casually, "Your third aunt is really something. When I asked her to share some snow fungus, she outright rejected me, accusing me of moral kidnapping. Then she turned around and gave two large bags to your grandaunt. If I hadn’t overheard someone from your grandaunt’s place mentioning it by chance, I wouldn’t have known about it at all. They really are experts at playing favorites."

Xia Mingzhu felt increasingly irritated as she listened and grew even more displeased with Madame Xia and Xia Xingzhi. She ignored the bird’s nest and slammed it down on the table, saying, "I’m going to rest in my room for a while."

Madame Xia the Second could only shake her head.

...

"I’ll go to the site to watch this Dragon Emperor Country’s satellite launch simulation operation, then I’ll return to Jincheng afterward."

At the dinner table, Jiang Zhe told Qin Jingchen about his recent schedule.

The satellite launch simulation was an important project at the Aerospace Research Institute. Remembering Jiang Zhe’s close relationship with Fu Qifang, Qin Jingchen gave him a probing look.

"The satellite launch simulation, Jingchen, shall we go?" Fen Ye asked with interest. "Last time Qin Qing mentioned wanting to see it."

"It’s basic operation, not necessary," Jiang Zhe said nonchalantly.

"Even if they are basic projects, they are high-end coming from the Research Institute. They definitely make a significant mark on the international stage. Qin Qing has always longed to see it," Fen Ye fairly remarked.

To say that those are basic operations and not worth attention is to undervalue the Research Institute.

Moreover, it’s the Institute personally led by Elder Fu, definitely nothing simple.

"Can we go?" Qin Jingchen, eyes downcast, sought Jiang Zhe’s opinion.

"Of course, if you want to go, just go," Jiang Zhe was indifferent, as there would be many people at the scene anyway.

Seeing her speak so casually, Qin Jingchen chuckled.

Outsiders might not be aware, but such a demonstration requires strict identity verification, and it’s not something you can just decide to attend.

Jiang Zhe knew the rules yet spoke so lightly, indicating she had full confidence.

"Then you ask Qin Qing if he wants to go," Qin Jingchen said to Qin He.

Seeing their interest, Jiang Zhe suggested, "If there are many people, go early to pick a good spot."

Fen Ye asked, "Sister-in-law, are you attending this time as a guest or as a project participant?"

"Guest." Jiang Zhe thought for a moment. Although he was the person Mr. Fu had called to be a backup, given Xia Xingzhi’s capabilities, he was most likely going to be just a guest.

Upon hearing this, Fen Ye secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

If Jiang Zhe could be one of the project members from the Aerospace Research Institute, then his skills would be considered too extraordinary.

It was enough to be outshined by Qin Jingchen; to be further overshadowed by Jiang Zhe would be utterly unreasonable.

With a meaningful look, Qin Jingchen glanced at Fen Ye, "What does your sigh of relief mean?"

"Nothing much, being a guest is more relaxing."

Right after that, Fen Ye made a call to Qin Qing.

Qin Qing was very interested.

Jiang Zhe said lazily, "Then let’s go together tomorrow."

Waking up early, Jiang Zhe washed up, changed into her school uniform, and walked out of her room.

She saw Qin Qing already sitting on the sofa.

Compared to Qin He and Qin Hai, Qin Qing was obviously a bit older and steadier.

Upon seeing Jiang Zhe, he stood up, "Miss Jiang!"

Knowing this opportunity was thanks to Jiang Zhe, Qin Qing showed quite a bit of respect.

Qin He had vividly informed Qin Qing of what Jiang Zhe was capable of.

"Morning." Jiang Zhe approached the fridge, grabbed some iced milk, and was about to guzzle it.

Her wrist was caught by Qin Jingchen, who took away her iced milk and replaced it with a warm glass.

Jiang Zhe could only drink the warm milk in a docile manner.

After everyone finished breakfast and got ready, they headed straight for the exhibition site.

There were already many fair-haired, blue-eyed people from M Country at the scene.

In the global big picture, M Country’s aerospace industry had always been leading the world and completely dominating over everyone else.

However, in recent years, the up-and-coming Dragon Emperor Country had made rapid progress, and the interactions between the two countries had increased.

As such, while M Country’s people were dismissive of Dragon Emperor Country’s catching up efforts, they also regarded them with a certain hostility, their attitude a mix of contradictions.

Regarding this exhibition, they were probably more eager to see Dragon Emperor Country’s embarrassment rather than its progress.

The group of Qin Jingchen and Jiang Zhe quickly had their identity cards checked and went inside.

When someone checked Qin Jingchen’s card, they rushed to inform Fu Qifang.

"Mr. Qin is here."

Qin Jingchen’s status, looked at within the entire Dragon Emperor Country, was indeed unique.

He was not just the actual backer of the Aerospace Research Institute, but also the future of Dragon Emperor Country.

Fu Qifang waved his hand dismissively, "So he has come, is that worth you all making such a fuss to disturb me?"

"Mr. Fu, we are uncertain whether this visit is for inspection or for oversight, so we wanted to consult you for a decision."

Fu Qifang laughed, with Jiang Zhe here, it was perfectly normal for Qin Jingchen to come as well.

He continued with his research and said, "Just proceed with the normal arrangements and procedures, do what you’re supposed to do. Whether he’s here for inspection or oversight, does it affect you?"

The person who came to report thought it over and realized it was true. Whether or not Qin Jingchen came, they would still follow the procedures and complete their work.

With this thought, their nervousness dissipated.

Since Qin Jingchen was coming, Fen Ye specifically instructed people not to alarm anyone else.
