After Descending the Mountain, Seven Big Brothers Spoil Me - Chapter 904

Chapter 904: Qin Ren’s Exam
Unexpectedly, it came so quickly, but Qin Ren was not overly surprised. He nodded and got into the car.

Ye Lingfeng looked at his reaction and raised an eyebrow, asking, “Aren’t you nervous?”

Qin Ren shook his head, his tone calm, though there was an undeniable confidence about him. He said, “I’ve never been nervous about exams.”

This statement wasn’t arrogance. Since childhood, he had excelled academically, entering university at fifteen and later securing his postgraduate studies. He had participated in many exams and competitions, never placing below first.

For others, exams might be nerve-wracking, but not for him; on the contrary, he felt a bit excited. He was glad to have this “skill” that could bring him closer to his younger cousin.

Hearing this, Ye Lingfeng chuckled, “You’re quite similar to your uncle.” Both were so confident, and both cared so much for his daughter

He let out a snort and stopped talking, leading Qin Ren to their destination.

It was an office building that looked no different from the outside. However, once inside, it was a completely different world filled with advanced technology that was even more impressive than what he had seen before.

Qin Ren’s calm eyes finally showed a ripple of excitement.

Ye Lingfeng walked straight ahead, twisting and turning until they arrived at a laboratory. He nodded towards the door, saying, “Go in; the examiner is waiting for you inside.”

Without hesitation or further questions, Qin Ren stepped inside. After he entered, Ye Lingfeng went to the adjacent room, where a large screen displayed Qin Ren’s every move in the room.

Zhao Xinghua sat there and waved him over, saying, “Have a seat.”

“Do you think he’s capable?”

Ye Lingfeng lounged in his chair, casually crossing his legs. He replied, “If he wasn’t capable, would I have brought him here?”

Zhao Xinghua scoffed, “That’s not certain. Don’t forget, he’s up against Jing Bai. How many people have we brought here? And none of them passed. Jing Bai is a genius, his accomplishments rivaling Qin Ren’s.”

Upon hearing this, Ye Lingfeng remained unperturbed, saying, “Let’s see how it goes. Talking here doesn’t help.”

Inside the lab, Qin Ren looked around before finally focusing on Jing Bai, who was the only one present.

He stepped forward to greet him, but Jing Bai seemed oblivious, focused instead on writing on a piece of paper. The floor was littered with sheets filled with his scrawled notes.

Qin Ren picked up a sheet, and upon seeing the formulas, his eyes flickered with surprise as he studied Jing Bai.

Dressed in white, Jing Bai appeared to be in his mid-twenties with pale skin, almost sickly from lack of sunlight.

Quiet.

This was Qin Ren’s first impression of him. He was so quiet that he wouldn’t draw attention in a crowd.

Noticing this, Qin Ren dismissed the idea of greeting him and sat down at another desk, taking a new sheet of paper and beginning to write after a moment of contemplation.

Time passed minute by minute. Ye Lingfeng, after watching for a while, closed his eyes.

The next morning, he awakened to the sound of footsteps approaching, quickly opening his eyes. Zhao Xinghua, about to call him, noticed he was awake and pointed outside with a beaming smile.

Seeing his expression, Ye Lingfeng understood the answer. He opened the door and saw Jing Bai and Qin Ren standing at the entrance. Jing Bai looked at him and uttered one word, “Passed.”

Upon hearing this, Ye Lingfeng raised his eyebrows and looked at Qin Ren. “You did well; you passed.”

“I knew you could do it!” Zhao Xinghua also came out, joyfully congratulating Qin Ren.

Ye Lingfeng shot a glance at Zhao Xinghua, who had doubted Qin Ren’s abilities just the day before.

What a change!

Ye Lingfeng rolled his eyes inwardly, “Welcome aboard.” Zhao Xinghua was overly excited; after so many years, they finally had another addition to their research department besides Jing Bai!

He grasped Qin Ren’s hand tightly, saying, “Let’s go sign the contract.”

“Cough, cough.” Ye Lingfeng cleared his throat, signaling Zhao Xinghua to calm down. He then turned to Qin Ren, asking, “Have you discussed this with your family?”

“Not yet.”

“Then let’s consult them first.” He didn’t want a repeat of the last uproar caused by Qin Lie.

Unlike Zhouzhou, who could throw a tantrum at his age, Qin Ren had to handle things more maturely.

It wouldn’t be good if he ended up causing a scene again.

Zhao Xinghua, eager to sign the contract, understood Ye Lingfeng’s point but reluctantly let go of Qin Ren’s hand.

“Make sure to come back!” he said, eyes wide with anticipation.

His gaze was as if he were watching a lover leave!

Qin Ren silently took a step back.

Ye Lingfeng cast him a disdainful glance, thinking how annoying that was.

“Let’s go,” he said to Qin Ren.

Qin Ren nodded, quickly walking out. Jing Bai observed silently, turning his gaze towards Zhao Xinghua, his eyes fixed on him, not moving an inch.

Zhao Xinghua felt uneasy under that stare and quickly remarked, “Don’t worry; he’ll definitely come back. I have my secret weapon; want to know what it is?”

Without a second thought, Jing Bai turned and went back into the laboratory, uninterested in the details; he only cared about the results.

Seeing this, Zhao Xinghua shook his head.

No one wanted to share in the good news; how boring.

In the car, Qin Ren pondered aloud, “That person seems a bit off.”

He was referring to Jing Bai.

He had noticed this since he entered. Jing Bai was very focused, but that level of concentration was unusual, almost to the point of ignoring everyone around him.

Ye Lingfeng nodded, “Yeah, his name is Jing Bai; he has autism.”

As he spoke, he glanced at Qin Ren and continued, “He’s like you; he was taken by a lab from Country A as a child, but for a longer period. He was actually born in the lab.”

Since they wanted him to join, they had to investigate his past thoroughly.

Upon hearing this, Qin Ren’s expression darkened. “How did he escape? Did someone rescue him?”

“Oh, that’s not the case.” Ye Lingfeng casually turned the steering wheel, “He killed those people and escaped himself.”

Qin Ren: “…” Impressive.

That was something even he couldn’t do.

“Be careful when you’re with him,” Ye Lingfeng reminded.

Qin Ren kept this in mind.

However, he wasn’t afraid.

When the two of them were together, it was uncertain who would face the consequences.

With this thought, Qin Ren adjusted his glasses, his gaze indifferent.

Ye Lingfeng didn’t worry too much. After briefly introducing Jing Bai, he fell silent.

The car drove on until it finally stopped at the Qin family home.

Ye Lingfeng walked in alongside Qin Ren, as he had brought him there, and he needed to explain the situation to the Qin family.

As soon as they stepped inside, they heard Zhouzhou’s loud crying.

Ye Lingfeng immediately paused, his brow furrowed tightly as he quickly ascended the stairs and pushed open the door.

However, upon seeing the scene inside, he was momentarily stunned…
