CHAPTER 23: CHAPTER 11: SPARRING PRACTICE

Being accused of taking advantage, the female classmate was so furious that she couldn’t bear to ask for help again, "Don’t lend it, she’s cold-blooded; even if you beg her, it’s useless."

Su Xiaocai remained calm from start to finish, insisting on not giving in, "Then you must be generous and hospitable. I’ll just inform all the classmates in the group that you are willing to rent machines from outside and let everyone use them for free. No need to thank me, you’re just that much of a saint, admirable and amiable."

Double standards people never think they’re double-standard, but they do care about face.

If Su Xiaocai’s verbal sparring weren’t strong enough, they would seize on one point to pressure her, making fallacious arguments.

Su Xiaocai just happened to have a good brain and a sharp tongue.

The two could only retreat in defeat without looking back, afraid that Su Xiaocai would take action and tell the class they were funding the whole Agricultural Research Institute.

The dorm next door had been eavesdropping the whole time. They opened the door and slowly gave Su Xiaocai a thumbs-up.

Su Xiaocai nodded friendly and closed the dormitory door with a smile.

Inside the dorm, three pairs of big eyes sparkled with admiration.

"Caicai, you really have a way with words. If it were me, I wouldn’t be able to get a single word out," Wu Qingqing said.

"Only a butt makes a fart, so did you manage to squeeze out a fart after half a day?" Su Xiaocai teased Wu Qingqing’s self-deprecating language, "If today’s goal isn’t achieved, once I have time, I’ll beat you until you look good."

Wu Qingqing didn’t want Su Xiaocai to think she was slacking, so she hurriedly stretched on the yoga mat, supervising the little robot as it spun around, repeatedly reminding: "Please use the correct posture, your training results have not met the standard. Please use the correct posture..."

The incessant nagging worked wonders on Wu Qingqing, "Alright, alright, I’ll change. Play the video again for me to see."

Xing Miao shrugged, "Since there’s nothing going on, I’m heading back to my room. Xiao Wanzi, tonight I want to eat candied sweet potatoes with extra sugar."

Xiao Wanzi righteously refused, "No way, Stars, you already had too much sugar yesterday, the health mode says you need to skip dessert today. How about trying some handmade beef balls? They’re chewy, like juicy ping pong balls. The beef you bought is perfect for that."

That’s sharp, knowing how to use food descriptors.

Xing Miao wasn’t stubborn, "Then let’s have beef balls; I haven’t had juicy ping pong balls yet."

Feng Wansha said, "I’ll pitch in for the same food."

Wu Qingqing was struggling with her stretching, her face twisted, squeezing out, "I want some too."

After placing their order, Su Xiaocai had already gone into her bedroom to continue unfinished business.

There’s so much information, Fei Yi couldn’t have finished it so quickly, but she roughly understood that Su Xiaocai’s scientific achievements were real.

"Miss Su, I’ve skimmed through the disclosure document; it’s very professional. However, I’ll also have the professional team at the law firm evaluate it to prevent any oversights. You’ll need to supplement some technical disclosures afterward to apply for everything possible; your technology should be suitable for mechas and industrial use, right? Don’t miss anything, as it pertains to the rights of using your invention in the future..."

A variety of patents require numerous documents to prepare and submit, so Su Xiaocai will be very busy during this time.

"Lawyer Fei, I’d like to ask, once the application is submitted, how long does it take to get it approved?"

"The time is uncertain; it could be as slow as three years or as fast as a year and a half. We’ll handle everything as quickly as possible."

Since Su Xiaocai chose to keep her name hidden after applying for the patent, Fei Yi informed her, "A patent of this level can’t be completely concealed; I can ensure that neither I nor the boss will leak it, but for other collaborators, I can only have them sign agreements, though they may not keep it."

"It’s alright, I don’t mind if some people know, as long as it’s kept from the public."

Fei Yi became even more certain that Su Xiaocai was the inventor of the robotic arm after seeing her calm, humble demeanor and professional disclosure document.

The lawyer’s license seemed to beckon to her, urging her to work swiftly.

They continued talking for almost five hours.

Fei Yi noticed it was getting late and voluntarily ended the conversation, "We’ll stop here for today. I’ll leave first, and we’ll discuss specific matters again."

"Okay, I’m available throughout this holiday."

"Next time, the boss should come over; then we’ll set the meeting place." Fei Yi turned around before leaving and mentioned, "By the way, I suggest you get a bodyguard or learn some self-defense skills."

"I understand."

The three roommates had just finished dinner, enjoying the juicy beef balls so much that they requested them again for the next week.

Seeing Fei Yi leave, they approached with concern, "Caicai, did something happen?" Hiring a bodyguard must relate to personal safety issues.
