Chapter 174: Chapter 174: Choice Chapter 174: Chapter 174: Choice Li Qiao followed the momentum to lift her eyes, looking at Academician Jiang, pursed her lips, and said nothing.

Seeing this, Academician Jiang adjusted his glasses, and said with heartfelt gravity, “Qiaoqiao, you are one of the rare good talents to emerge from the medical university in recent years.

I don’t care what you’ve been up to lately, but in the field of bioengineering, I still hope you’ll continue to pursue it.

And with all the theoretical knowledge and practical experience you’ve accumulated over the years, it would truly be a pity to let go of it easily.

Of course, as a teacher, I still respect your wishes.

If you find the lab too dull and uninteresting compared to the colorful life outside, then… I won’t force you.”

Li Qiao: “…”

This persuasive tactic of taking a step back indeed left Li Qiao caught between laughter and tears.

She never considered giving up her specialty.

Even though she was prone to inertia, she knew what she ought to do.

Li Qiao touched her forehead and let out a light sigh, “Teacher, do you want me to join the lab to work on her pathological research?”

Academician Jiang nodded in satisfaction, “Although you’ve been out frolicking for so long, at least you haven’t lost your IQ.

Since you’re not planning to take a job at a research institute for the time being, why not join the lab for some research first?

Qiaoqiao, I have a premonition that if the young lady’s condition could be properly treated, there might be some unexpected findings.

So, think it over carefully.

If you decide to join the research, then I will set up the experimental project team as soon as possible.”

After all, chromosomal mutations in adults are extremely rare.

If a method to treat mutated chromosomes could be found, it would be trailblazing in a sense.

At that moment, Li Qiao, looking at the enthusiastic Academician Jiang, flickered a glint in her eyes and gave an equivocal answer, “Teacher, I… will think about it.”

Academician Jiang pouted, “Fine, I won’t push you.

Can you give me an answer after this week?”

Li Qiao nodded, “Okay.”

…

It was four in the afternoon when Li Qiao leisurely returned to Yan Emperor Group.

All the way there, she pondered a lot, and when it came down to it, she was still somewhat torn.

On one hand, there was her career, and on the other, her happiness.

Originally, she came to Yan Emperor solely for Shang Yu.

She had little interest in the company-level work.

The Li Family’s wealth was vast and numerous, immersed in it from childhood alongside Li Guangming, she was already very familiar with the business rules of the commercial world.

However… her relationship with Shang Yu always seemed to lack that final spark.

If she ended her internship now and could no longer be by his side day and night, might certain potential changes become an obstacle for them?

Li Qiao, head lowered and thoughts heavy, pushed open the door to the CEO’s office.

She instinctively looked towards the large desk, saw no sign of the man, and couldn’t help but heave a long sigh.

“Tsk, Shaoyan, where did you recruit this assistant from?

Comes in and first checks for the boss at the desk, looking all lost when she can’t see anyone, making me feel envious!”

At this moment, a teasing voice came from the left.

Li Qiao frowned slightly and turned her head nonchalantly.

Oh, so he was there!

In the nearby resting area, Shang Yu was sitting across from Qiu Huan, holding a teacup and casting a meaningful glance at her.

Li Qiao pursed her lips, casually closed the door behind her, and without a glance at Qiu Huan, walked straight to her own workstation and pretended to immerse herself in work.

Under these circumstances, Qiu Huan didn’t get angry either.

He crossed his legs, rocked his toes, and teased, “Miss, you don’t even greet me when you see me, don’t you want your camera anymore?”
