I was the one who was causing the collapse of the iron.

"Sir, Dr. Mobius didn't authorize you to do this, did he? Do you know how big of a stain it would bring to your First Institute and the doctor if this behavior were exposed?"

That's a pity, Dr. Mobius would love for me to sleep with you.

Xu Nuo found it a little amusing as he looked at the girl who was trying to pretend to be calm. He slowly bent down and moved his face closer to her.

Thinking that the other party was trying to force a kiss on her, Mei bit her lips tightly and closed her eyes in fear.

But Xu Nuo did not do so. He walked past the woman's face and whispered softly in her ear.

"You look so cute in this scene, Miss Mei. Since you don't believe in fate, then try your best to break it and show me how you can do it."

Chapter 312: Banquet Opening

By the time Mei came back to her senses from her trance, the mysterious man had already left her room.

The woman let out a long sigh and relaxed completely. It was only at this moment that she noticed how fast her heart was beating and how nervous she was just now.

This was the first time she was so close to a man. The girl raised one hand to cover her chest, recalling the touch just now. The strange and unfamiliar feeling to her made the girl's cold face slightly red.

"What a scary man... but luckily he still has some concerns."

Mei didn't know how to describe the feeling just now, shy? Charming?

None of that. She just felt fear, as if she was being targeted by a top predator. It was a creepy feeling from the inside out.

"It doesn't look like the other side will give up. What else will they do?"

A trace of sadness appeared on her face. After all, Mei was just a young girl who had not experienced much of the world. It was her first time going on a long journey and she encountered such a thing, which really made the girl feel helpless.

In this situation, she couldn't even find someone to talk to.

Looking for Kevin?

It is obvious that my fellow classmates who are far away cannot provide any help to me who is now in Mu Continent. Contacting them will only make him worry about me in vain.

At this stage, we can only take one step at a time.

At least, the other party hasn't used any other means yet, right?

At the same time, on the other side, Mebius stood at the door of the dormitory, looking around curiously. After seeing Xu Nuo coming out, a look of confusion appeared on her face.

"Why did you come out so soon? Don't tell me it's over. It's only been a short time. I think that little girl is very stubborn. If you don't poke her for a few hours, you may not be able to subdue her."

"So I say, be a human being. Are you sure that after you do this, the girl can join the Fire Moth and become your colleague and work with you?"

"What do you do have to do with me? She will surely comfort her every day and accuse you of your evil deeds. Then you can perform a few more times in front of her. For example, when you want to do something to her, I will bravely stand up for her. In this way, won't the little girl be grateful to me?"

"Tsk... you, are you a black heart? But you're wrong to think so. You've already exposed your true nature in front of her before. That girl is not someone who can be fooled so easily."

Mebius blinked, seeming confused about what he had revealed.

"Hey, anyway, think of a way to get her here. This is what you promised me! If you can't see her, I'm going to make a scene!"

"Don't be impatient, don't be impatient. We have to cultivate our relationship first. How can we be so rude and direct? I am a god after all. She should be the one to pray to me and I should show her favor. How can I take the initiative to do such a shameful thing?"

"You are just pretending. You said it so nicely, but it wasn't like this when you pressed Eden's buttocks."

"Don't talk nonsense. Eden volunteered to sacrifice herself because she was grateful to me for saving her life. I didn't force her."

"What about Alicia?"

"That was a relationship that took many days to develop, and it finally came to fruition. I am a gentle god."

What do you mean by cultivating feelings? That's clearly kidnapping.

Mebius folded his hands, but did not say it out loud. After all, the man in front of him was very stingy. This was the main street in the middle of the school, with people coming and going all around.

If this man gets angry, he will really pin her against the tree on the spot, and she doesn't want to be ruined.

"Why, you don't believe in your man's charm? A good man like me is a fatal attraction to a teenage girl like Mei."

"Tsk..."

Mebius curled his lips, but did not say anything to refute, because Xu Nuo was indeed an excellent partner and there was nothing to fault with him.

◇

At night, the mansion for receiving guests was brightly lit. Mei, who had just taken a nap on the bed, opened her eyes and saw a reminder on her mobile phone that the banquet had begun.

Do I want to... attend this banquet?

The banquet was just an ordinary drinking party, there was nothing special about it. It didn't matter whether she, a nobody, went or not.

If I just go, I will definitely meet Mobius and that man again.

Nothing happened when the man and woman were alone together, so there shouldn't be any problem with so many people attending the party, right?

Thinking of this, Mei slowly stood up. The woman stood in front of the mirror and adjusted her clothes. Then, she put on some light makeup as if possessed by some mysterious force, and then pushed the door and walked out.

Although she was still wearing a white coat, her hot body and pretty face still attracted many people's attention.

"Sorry, am I late?"

Mei took out the post representing her identity and handed it to the steward guarding the door, then spoke with an apologetic look on her face.

"It's okay, Miss Mei, right? It's okay for talented young people to enter later. This is your privilege."

"Are my clothes a little inappropriate?"

She looked at the people coming and going in the reception hall. The men were wearing well-fitting suits and the women were wearing low-cut evening gowns. Her white coat made her particularly eye-catching.

"It's okay. This is how a true scientific researcher should dress. Most of those who dress extravagantly are actually their female companions."

Huh?

Mei looked at the woman in front of her with a strange expression. She didn't know her, but she seemed a little too enthusiastic towards her.

Could it be that because of the speech I gave during the day, my talent was recognized by many people?

She thought of Mebius, whose attitude in inviting her didn't seem fake.

So, is the paper I wrote really good? I am not completely sure about many things, and most of them are just hypotheses.

"Okay, okay, Miss Mei, stop standing outside the door in a daze. Let's go in together."

"Ah, please."

Mei nodded somewhat nervously and followed the lady into the venue.

Along the way, many people looked at her, smiled and nodded to her.

This is different from the passers-by on the road before. You should know that everyone in this venue now is the top expert in various industries.

Am I... famous?

Or was it Dr. Mobius who did something?

Mei was a little confused and not quite used to such occasions. She couldn't help but look around, and then she saw Mebius in the corner, and the man who made her a little afraid.

Chapter 313: Small Actions at the Banquet

Somehow, after seeing these two people, Mei felt at ease.

Perhaps it was because compared to the kindness from those around her that came from nowhere, at least she knew why the two people in front of her were paying attention to her.

"Come this way, I'll introduce these people to you."

He walked past the dining tables piled with all kinds of exquisite meals and drinks, avoiding the many waiters coming and going with trays and the invited guests from all walks of life.

Obviously, those gathered here tonight are not just scientists, but also many entrepreneurs who have a lot of money but nowhere to spend it.

Scientific research is always inseparable from money, and scientific research can also make more money.

Mei seemed a little uncomfortable. In fact, she wanted to leave her alone, but the woman who led the way was so enthusiastic that she felt embarrassed to refuse.

"Come on, Miss Mei, let's have a drink together."

"But, but, I can't drink."

Mei seemed a little embarrassed, but the lady in front of her had already handed the wine glass to her.

"Try this cocktail, it's very light and tastes like sparkling water."

"This……"

Mei opened her mouth and looked at the many men and women around her who were staring at her. After hesitating for a moment, she finally took the wine glass.

As for cocktails, it should be okay to drink a little bit, right?

"Cough cough cough..."

Mei, who was drinking for the first time, choked a little, but the lady who brought her here smiled with satisfaction, and then began to introduce the people in front of her to her one by one.

"This is Dr. William, an internationally renowned physicist who has long been committed to research in the field of quantum computing. I think you must have a lot of common topics."

"Here's to you, beautiful Miss Mei."

The middle-aged white man, who looked to be in his forties or fifties, smiled and raised his glass to Mei.

"It's an honor to meet you, Dr. William."

Mei nodded and raised her glass in response.

"This is Mr. Wang. He is well-known in the business community of Shenzhou and a leader in the technology industry. He is very interested in the quantum field."

"Miss Mei, I have listened carefully to Dr. William's papers. I am very interested in many of the ideas in them. I hope to discuss them in detail with you two after the banquet."

The person raising the glass this time was a middle-aged man with a big belly, who looked to be in his forties or fifties. His face was full of wealth and his head was slightly bald.

"Ah... Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Wang."

"And these few are..."

The lady who led the way introduced several people in a row, which made Mei feel a little dizzy.

On the other side, Xu Nuo stared at the girl's back, then looked at Mebius who was eating happily on the side, and spoke with some confusion.

"Is that the person you arranged?"

"Well, what did you say?"

Mebius was slightly startled, and looked in the direction of Mei following the man's words.

"What's going on over there? Who are the people I arranged?"

"That group over there, the guys surrounding Miss Mei and chatting with her."

"This just shows that Miss Mei is very talented. It seems that it's not just me, but others are also attracted to her."

Mebius seemed quite happy. The more people noticed Mebius, the better her vision was and she had not made a mistake in choosing the right person.

"What I meant was that the woman did something wrong. The wine Mei drank was not right. I thought you were the one who arranged it. So you are not that crazy after all."

“Hey…Hey hey hey???”

Mebius was stunned for a long while before he realized what Xu Nuo meant.

Some people actually did what they had boasted before and put something in the drinks.

Looking at the lively crowd over there, Mebius frowned at first, and then he showed a relieved expression as if he understood something.

"Actually, this kind of thing isn't surprising. There are always despicable people everywhere, and there are many unspoken rules in the scientific research and academic circles. I just didn't expect to run into it today."

A lot of people are invited to today's banquet, and there is no threshold, which is why Mei, a high school student, is qualified to attend.

In fact, the Fire Moth is casting a wide net, so it is inevitable that some unqualified people will sneak in.

"But this is a good thing. I was just worrying about how to get along with her, and now here comes the chance to be a hero and save the beauty."

"What if she thinks that this is something we directed and acted out ourselves?"

"When did you become so smart?"

Xu Nuo looked at Mebius with pretended surprise, and was then glared at unhappily by the woman.

"It's not you who said that. It's what I said that's wrong. It's already left a bad impression on her. Isn't this a clear scapegoat? If I had known this would happen, I would have just dealt with it myself."

As Mebius said this, a look of annoyance appeared on his face.

"It's actually very simple to distance yourself from this matter. Just kill a few people in front of her. Who are these guys? Can you kill them?"

When talking about killing, Xu Nuo's face was still filled with a divine and kind smile.

But it was obvious that Mebius was also a ruthless person, and she didn't care about the lives of those people at all.
