What does that mean?
Did Luan Yenan use his status as an investor to make things easier for him before he entered the company?
He didn't even wait for Zuo Baixuan to speak.
Brother Long stepped forward and said, "Wait a minute! Professor Chen, are you planning to use connections? I think this is inappropriate! How can you do something like this for money? It will make outsiders question our project!"
That was a truly righteous and eloquent statement.
They even added the word "we" before the project name, as if they were already on the same side as the matter.
His well-dressed appearance even added some credibility to his nonsense.
But Professor Chen seemed not to hear, giving a perfunctory "hmm" before looking back at his computer.
Brother Long felt like he had punched cotton, which was very uncomfortable.
Luan Yenan casually leaned against the desk as if he were in his own office, and slightly raised his head to Long Ge: "What's your name?"
The aura of this top-tier Alpha instantly permeated the office.
Many Omegas at the scene, though they didn't smell any pheromones, were already affected in some way, their hearts racing and unable to control themselves.
They were secretly surprised.
Who spread the rumor that Omega feels uncomfortable whenever he's alone in a room with Luan Ye Nan? Is it this kind of uncomfortable feeling of attraction?
Even hamsters couldn't escape it; they became shy and couldn't utter a word they wanted to say.
The ant standing to the side had a rather strange expression on its face.
Several Alphas also sensed this aura; although there was no trace of pheromones, it was suffocating.
The oppressive aura emanating from the top-tier Alphas silenced them completely.
That's not all.
Luan Yenan was not at all as carefree and irresponsible as rumored.
Although the casual gesture of leaning against the table wasn't formal, the air of authority he exuded made Brother Long subconsciously feel intimidated, and he answered the question that didn't really need to be answered: "Bao Xinglong."
"This name is quite suitable for doing business," Luan Yenan casually remarked.
"..."
That's it?
"Did you ask my name just to mock me?"
Luan Yenan smiled amusedly and retorted, "Otherwise what? Just to send your name to the assassin?"
Gurgle.
Luan Yenan's unconventional answer made Bao Xinglong swallow hard, his heart skipping a beat.
Assassin?
Is this lunatic really going to hire a hitman?
No, no!
impossible!
This person is, after all, the eldest daughter of the Luan family. Even if she's crazy, she wouldn't do such a thing!
I don't know how Bao Xinglong came up with this logical chain to comfort himself.
He boldly continued, "Don't think that just because you have a lot of money you can manipulate this project at will!"
"Yes, what gives you the right to sit here and act so arrogantly? Professor Chen hasn't even said anything yet."
"Even if you invested in the project, you have no right to bring Zuo Baixuan in! This isn't the entertainment industry, where you can still get cast by investing in the project!"
Led by the four individuals known as "snakes, insects, rats, and ants," the hot-blooded young students, feeling that this was a matter of mutual benefit, joined in.
Luan Yenan didn't say anything, but just looked out the window and started to laugh.
Why do humans find the chirping of birds outside the window pleasant, but the chirping of birds inside the house noisy?
Perhaps it's because humans have a preference for cute creatures, while applying double standards to those they dislike.
As Jiang Lingdan listened to the increasingly absurd murmurs in the room, some of the comments were so sarcastic and sarcastic that they were almost bordering on personal insults.
But neither of the parties involved reacted at all.
One person was gazing out the window with great interest, even the sky outside, obscured by tree trunks, seemed like a beautiful sight.
The other looked at the former, and it was hard to tell what expression was on his face.
As Zuo Baixuan's good friend, she couldn't stand it anymore.
Do these people have no brains?
Regardless of whether Luan Yenan spent money on Zuo Baixuan, Zuo Baixuan's excellence is undeniable, and she will definitely be selected for this project.
How can you be prevented from joining just because you have a sugar daddy?
Jiang Lingdan grew angrier the more she thought about it, and was just short of rolling up her sleeves and starting a fight with these people.
After wandering around in a daze, Luan Yenan suddenly turned to look at Jiang Lingdan: "You must be Xiaoxuan's friend, right? I often hear her mention you. Do you want to join this project too?"
Jiang Lingdan was caught off guard by the question, her train of thought suddenly cut off. It was like a burning pot that had its lid suddenly put on, suffocating the fire.
"Uh, yeah. Because..." Jiang Lingdan stammered, trying to explain her intentions.
Luan Yennan interrupted him: "You shouldn't mind joining through the back door, right?"
"Ah, this...?" Jiang Lingdan was stunned by the question.
Although her grades weren't outstanding, she was usually very smart and talkative.
Unexpectedly, he became stuttering and mute because of Luan Yenan's two sentences, almost uttering "Aba aba".
Not understanding the man's intentions, she looked at her good friend Zuo Baixuan, who showed no unusual reaction. She then gently shook her head: "I don't mind."
Luan Yenan nodded: "Okay. Professor Chen, I'd like to have this student join as well."
“Sure, you have three spots.” Professor Chen said without looking up.
Three spots?
Luan Yenan has three spots available!
Besides Zuo Baixuan and Jiang Lingdan, wouldn't there be one left?
The office fell silent instantly; the previous discussion had completely ceased.
Anyone with eyes can see what these students are planning right now.
Luan Yenan maintained the same calm and collected expression as before, gazing at everyone with equanimity.
These people were in turmoil and couldn't utter a single word.
Jiang Lingdan quickly covered her mouth to prevent herself from laughing out loud.
She winked at Zuo Baixuan.
This person is really not like the rumors suggest; they're quite the player!
Zuo Baixuan received Jiang Lingdan's signal and also smiled.
This crazy woman is indeed very good at manipulating people's hearts.
Zuo Baixuan no longer wanted to refute the fact that Luan Yenan had joined the project team.
It's really funny to see these people's incompetent rage.
Just as Zuo Baixuan officially accepted this arrangement, Luan Yenan pointed to a girl and the boy next to her: "The remaining two spots are for you."
It was the girl who had just kindly reminded Zuo Baixuan and her boyfriend.
The two were caught off guard by this unexpected windfall, and were filled with a mixture of excitement and bewilderment.
Bao Xinglong spoke up again to obstruct, "Wait a minute, you only have three spots, why should you choose four people?"
Luan Yenan pointed to the people who had just been called out: "One, two, three."
He then leaned towards Zuo Baixuan and said, "My wife is so capable, she can definitely join on her own merits, right?"
"Hmm." After understanding Luan Yenan's intention, Zuo Baixuan lowered her eyes and did not look up. It was not because she felt guilty, but because she was afraid that if she smiled too obviously, it would make this person too proud.
But she was truly impressed by Luan Yenan's dramatic turnaround in those few seconds.
Especially the last sentence, which told her to get into the group based on her own abilities, warmed her heart.
Professor Chen remained silent, indicating his agreement.
Bao Xinglong couldn't stand it: "No way! Professor Chen, I think letting an investor who knows nothing do things recklessly will damage the project's reputation!"
"Yes, Professor Chen!"
"Professor Chen!"
Others chimed in.
Chen Qian finally let out a sigh of relief, pressed her index finger against her temple, and showed an impatient expression on her face.
"I forgot to introduce you earlier, Luan Yenan. She's one of the mentors for this project. When we collaborate in the future, her influence will be no less than mine. If you're going to argue like this every time, you can leave now and stop participating."
The sounds in the room were once again swallowed up by the unknown monster.
Everyone stared at Professor Chen and Luan Yenan in surprise.
Unbelievable.
Is the ignorant and incompetent Luan Yenan the mentor?
Not an investor.
Not a participant.
Is he a mentor?
Is it possible to buy project mentors now?
"Professor Chen, were you threatened by someone? How can someone of her level be qualified to be a mentor?" Bao Xinglong asked, puzzled.
Some people who are familiar with the project level and specific requirements have raised questions: "To be a mentor for a project at this level, one must at least have the status of a professor. Luan Yenan does not meet the requirements at all."
