“After you, Ms. Joyce.”
Joyce was vaguely surprised and impressed. She went into the elevator and only saw one button to the 17th floor with no other options.
“Don’t I need to be blindfolded?” Joyce joked.
Gerard laughed. “Nah, you won’t be ablet o take away any core secrets, so it’s fine for you to see it.”
Joyce breathed a sigh of relief and had a n expectant look in her eyes.
Once they walked out of the elevator,
Joyce saw a hallway filled with silver-
gray glass. Almost all the walls were made of translucent material, but it was impossible to see through any of the walls even on closer inspection. It felt like a top-secret lab.
Gerard took her into a closed, empty room. He just walked to the opposite side of the room and placed his hand on the glass wall. Suddenly, some curved thin lines with some sort of data appeared on the glass. Gerard stood in place and aligned his pupils with a spot on the glass. After the iris recognition, the wall in front of him parted
Joyce followed behind and saw another long gray glass corridor. If no one led the way, it would be like walking in a maze.
Soon, Gerard pushed open a door and said, “This is it…”
When Joyce walked in, she saw a few people inside wearing white lab coats with their heads down working on something. Someone was spinning with a gyroscope-like tool, and someone else was talking to a computer.
“Everyone got off work. The rest here are all single…” Gerard laughed with a relaxed expression.
Someone heard Gerard’s voice. A man with curly hair looked up and retorted.”
Tsk tsk… Don’t insult single people like us
… We have feelings too! Oh, we have a visitor?”
Joyce smiled and wanted to say hello when she felt something rubbing her shoes. She looked down and saw that it was the little tiger again!
The little tiger looked at her and grinned.
The stripes on its forehead moved. “Hello, pretty lady! We meet again! I like you very much…”
Joyce was stunned and surprised as she squatted down to pick up the tiger. “Hey little guy, it’s you again?”
The little tiger rubbed against her shoulder and spoke in a cute voice, “I’m not a little guy, I’m a big and mighty tiger!
Roar!”
Joyce was amused and looked at Gerard.
“It actually remembers me?”
“It has a good memory.” Gerard laughed and then whispered, “After all, it’s not a real tiger… Shh… Don’t let it hear what!
said.”
“I heard that! I don’t like you anymore…
Hmph!” The tiger looked away and narrowed its eyes in anger.
Gerard touched his nose while the curly-
haired man came over to them and said,”
So you’re the pretty lady he’s been going o n and on about?”
The man had a big head of curly hair and wore black-framed glasses. He looked like a stereotypical scientist and looked t o be in his twenties.
“This little traitor came back and showed off to us saying that he saw a pretty lady. I
t always had very high standards when it comes to aesthetics, so we were curious.
We were just talking about it when you came.”
Joyce smiled in surprise. She lowered her head to stroke the little tiger’s head. It squinted in enjoyment and said proudly,”
She’s pretty, right? Isn’t she so beautiful?”
“You’re called Little Traitor?”
The little tiger grunted unhappily and looked away, refusing to answer her question.
Gerard explained while he laughed. “I
don’t know who designed its character.
It’s quite the neophile and always changes its allegiance, so everyone calls i t Little Traitor.”
“I designed it! What’s wrong with this character?”
While they were talking, a small round-
faced girl with big eyes came out from next door and glared indignantly at
Gerard. She looked at the tiger in Joyce’s arms and reached out to it. “Come here.
Let me carry you…”
The tiger shook its head and refused. Its paws held onto one of Joyce’s arms tightly. “No, no! I want Pretty Lady to carry me…”
The girl’s lips twitched at the corners. She gritted her teeth and scolded it. “Little traitor!”
Everyone was amused. Joyce laughed and looked at the girl. “Did you design this tiger?”
The girl glanced at Joyce. “Wow… You really are beautiful…” She smiled with squinted eyes and replied, “Yeah, I
designed it.”
Gerard coughed and introduced them. “M
Joyce, this is Molly Stewart, a famous
genius scientist in the industry and the leader of our collaborative project. Molly, this is Ms. Joyce, our partner. You can show her around. I’ll go see the others.”
Joyce was a bit shocked. This girl only looked to be in her early twenties, yet she was already the project leader?
Molly smiled and nodded. “No problem, leave it to me!”
Gerard smiled and pulled the curly-haired man with him. Joyce looked at Molly with a smile. “Ms. Stewart, you look so young
Molly was naturally friendly with Joyce and went over to take her arm. “Call me
Molly. I’m twenty-three years old. Ms.
Joyce, are you very rich?”
She dragged Joyce to her lab. Joyce froze slightly. Molly chuckled and said,”
Gerard said that anyone who can be our partner in this project must be very rich, and I like to make friends with rich people!”
The little tiger snorted and muttered,”
Superficial woman…”
“Shut up or I’ll dismantle you!” Molly scolded the tiger
The little tiger shuddered in fear and hid i n Joyce’s arms. It was so aggrieved and dared not speak again.
Joyce laughed and thought that this girl was very interesting. “Our company has money.”
I finally know where this little tiger’s temper came from! It’s just like Molly!’
Joyce thought.
Molly’s laboratory was huge and surrounded by transparent blue walls that had all kinds of formulas popping up constantly. There were all sorts of robot parts and many precision instruments here. It was quite dazzling to look at.
There was also a protruding LCD screen o n the wall with a picture of an extremely familiar person to Joyce.
“Maverick?!”
‘Isn’t this Second Brother?!’ Joyce thought
On the screen was a photo of Joyce’s second brother receiving a prize in
Switzerland. At the age of seventeen,
Maverick received the Breakthrough Prize and had since leaped to fame as the top scientist in the physics world. He was a genius that countless countries desperately wanted to hire. In this photo,
Maverick looked clean-shaven and fresh with a warm sunny smile.
“You know him too?!” Molly Stewart ran over to Joyce in excitement. Her eyes were sparkling with admiration. “He’s my idol. I love him so much! If I get to see him in person, I can just die without regret!”
