Chapter 220 The gradually blurred stance

After assigning the tasks, Zhang Haochen talked about Yang Shuyu: "Did Yang Shuyu come here to win over Zhao Yuxi, or to eliminate Zhao Yuxi?"

"Not sure, maybe just meeting and making friends. Have you seen Yang Shuyu recently? She seems to be very busy. I can only see her news but not her in person. Is she in danger?"

Cui Yunqing was a little worried about Yang Shuyu. If something happened to Yang Shuyu, she alone would not be able to maintain the "Star Courtyard". She was good at destroying opponents one by one through battles. As long as she was still there, outside forces would not be able to easily destroy the Star Courtyard. But if Yang Shuyu was gone, the Star Courtyard would collapse at any time.

Zhang Haochen could see Yang Shuyu's asymptotic rate. She learned about the dean's asymptotic rate from Ye Zi. When comparing the two, Yang Shuyu had the upper hand. Such a person should not be in danger.

"She's definitely not in danger. I haven't seen her either, and I haven't heard from her since I came to the institute."

"That's because you're busy, so she didn't send you a message. I heard that a while ago a colleague received an invitation from a branch dean to go to Changbai Mountain, and he has stayed in Changbai Mountain ever since. Maybe our next stop will also be Changbai Mountain."

Ye Lianshi thought of the spokesperson of the King of Changbai Mountain, Meng Shangrong. The reason why he remembered Meng Shangrong was because Meng Shangrong's jurisdiction was too peculiar. Meng Shangrong had been the dean of the second-level branch that occupied nine cities from the beginning. Strictly speaking, it was not nine cities, but eight cities and one state, which together formed a province.

"Did Meng Shangrong invite them?" Zhang Haochen asked before Ye Zi did. Meng Shangrong was Ye Zi's colleague. If Ye Zi said this, Cui Yunqing might ask him a lot of questions, which would cause trouble to Ye Zi. Moreover, she didn't want Ye Zi to have too much connection with Xingting, especially not with Cui Yunqing.

"Yes. You also know Meng Shangrong?" Cui Yunqing was not curious about why Zhang Haochen knew Meng Shangrong, but what purpose she had in knowing Meng Shangrong. Did she know these people for us or for her husband? If it was for us, it would be fine. If it was for her husband, would she betray the Starry Courtyard and join the Institute? She was also an Ancient. If she was willing to join the Institute, the Institute would not treat her unfairly and would even give her a position as Vice President.

"Meng Shangrong is a big shot in the institute. I have checked the information of these big shots. Which colleague went to Changbai Mountain?"

Cui Yunqing was unsure of Zhang Haochen's position, so she concealed something from him: "Let's talk about this later. We came to Guyuan City to win over Zhao Yuxi. You have met and talked with her. What kind of person do you think she is?"

"If Zhao Yuxi is ours, she can become our closest friend. If Zhao Yuxi is our enemy, she is a very dangerous person, even more dangerous than the director of the institute. If we cannot win her over this time, should we eliminate her?"

"That's not necessary. Her fighting ability is very poor, and we can eliminate her at any time. What she does has something in common with what we want to do. If we can get her to join us, we will have fewer enemies and more friends, killing two birds with one stone."

Cui Yunqing didn't take Zhao Yuxi seriously. She didn't know Zhao Yuxi's ability at all, but everyone could see what Zhao Yuxi did. Such a big thing didn't happen in the jurisdiction of other branch deans, but it happened in this person's jurisdiction. It can be seen that Zhao Yuxi is obviously different from other branch deans. If Yang Shuyu could have met Zhao Yuxi earlier, maybe Zhao Yuxi would have joined Xingting.

Zhang Haochen still remembers the bold words Yang Shuyu said when she first met him, such as "Let's build a better new world together." That's why she became Yang Shuyu's partner. Later, Zhang Haochen found that Yang Shuyu's partner seemed to be inferior to the dean of the branch in the institute. To this day, she has not seen which dean's ability is completely harmful, but the Cui Yunqing standing in front of her has completely harmful abilities and is of no help to people. Can such a person also work hard to "build a better new world"?

When Zhang Haochen heard Cui Yunqing say "join us", he was somewhat resistant: Joining us is not necessarily a good thing, and not joining us is not necessarily a bad thing. Ye Zi is also here, and he can hear everything you say. Are you trying to persuade Ye Zi to join Xingting? I joined you, but I don't want my husband to do the same.

"If Zhao Yuxi joins us, what position will you give her? The same as you? The same as me? Zhao Yuxi's desire for power is far beyond that of ordinary people, and even if she joins us, she may not do things the way we want. So, I think you shouldn't be too optimistic about this matter."

Cui Yunqing had never thought about these questions before, but now she began to think: My position is second only to Yang Shuyu, and I am the real No. 2. Zhang Haochen is the No. 3. Zhao Yuxi definitely cannot be the No. 2. As for whether she can be the No. 3, she needs to discuss it with Yang Shuyu before deciding. Zhao Yuxi is just the dean of a second-level branch in the Academy of Sciences, so making her the No. 3 should be enough to satisfy her ambition.

"No matter how ambitious Zhao Yuxi is, she is only the dean of a second-level branch in the institute. At most, she can be on the same level as you. We don't have to pay for her ambition. As long as she doesn't hinder us, she can continue to do what she wants. She can even stay in the institute like you. To put it another way, no matter what her position is, as long as she doesn't hinder us, it's fine."

Cui Yunqing was talking about Zhao Yuxi on the surface, but secretly, she was using this to remind Zhang Haochen not to forget his position. In the better new world, there is no research institute.

Zhang Haochen heard the hidden meaning of Cui Yunqing's words, and she expressed her dissatisfaction tactfully: "You are really tolerant of Zhao Yuxi. But whether she will be so tolerant of you is unknown."

"If she is not tolerant, then just destroy her. It's that simple." The other party warned her, and she also warned the other party.

"It's not that simple. The entire research institute is behind Zhao Yuxi. If you eliminate her, you will be directly making an enemy of the institute. At the current stage, it is unwise to make an enemy of the institute directly." Zhang Haochen knew very well that Fanxing Courtyard and the institute were hostile, but indirect hostility and direct hostility are two different things. Once she becomes directly hostile to the institute, her current life will definitely be affected.

"It's you who wants to destroy her, not me. You go to the hospital, and I'll go to the sports center. We should go there more often when we have nothing to do. I'll give you half of the Medievalists who come to the city. If you have other things to do, you can do your thing first, and let the Medievalists help you keep an eye on the hospital. However, if something happens in the hospital, you must arrive at the scene within one minute. I'm afraid that in one minute, Zhao Yuxi will have cleared all the evidence."

"No problem. Anyway, I'm not too busy lately. You should keep up the good work. I think Zhao Yuxi is more likely to go to your place. If you need my help, feel free to contact me."

"understood."
