Chapter 190: Strike first to gain the upper hand
Su Yao widened her eyes and shouted sharply, completely losing her usual weak demeanor, "How is this possible! I am the most talented woman in the Apocalypse Dynasty, what is she, Lin Yuxi!"
The assistant next to her was startled by Su Yao's sudden loss of composure and stammered, "Su, Ms. Su, don't get excited. This is just the professors' decision."
"Decision? What basis do they have for making such a decision?" Su Yao widened her eyes, her face full of disbelief. "I told them so much about the etiquette and costumes of the Apocalypse Dynasty, which one was not detailed and accurate. What could Lin Yuxi know?"
Another assistant answered cautiously: "I heard that Lin Yuxi also talked about some ancient traditional etiquette and costumes in the live broadcast these days. The professors said that Lin Yuxi's insights are very unique, so..."
"Unique insights?" Su Yao interrupted the assistant and sneered, "She is a young girl who has just graduated from school in modern society. What unique insights can she have? I have actually lived in our Apocalypse Dynasty. Isn't it my opinion that has the most say?"
"She was just taking advantage of the situation and happened to cater to the professors' wishes. Who doesn't know about my Su Yao's talent and reputation in the Tianqi Dynasty? How can I be outdone by a nobody like her when I'm here?"
"Ms. Su, please calm down first. Losing your temper like this won't solve the problem." The young assistant looked at Su Yao losing her temper. He felt that Su Yao was indeed a young lady from ancient times. Her temper was really scary. He then stepped forward to persuade her.
Why hasn’t Sister Mengqi come back yet?
Come and save the situation, they have made a big mess!
Su Yao glared at him fiercely, "Calm down? How can I be calm? This Lin Yuxi is against me everywhere. First, she made me look bad in front of her, and now she has stolen my limelight. If I don't take revenge, I, Su Yao, will not be a human being!"
Several assistants looked at each other, not daring to say anything more. The atmosphere in the room became extremely tense.

Splendid Home, Reception Room
"Since I'm joining the research team, I still have a question to report to the professors." Lin Yuxi took a deep breath and looked at the professors present with a firm gaze.
Professor Zhou, who was sitting in the first seat, nodded slightly, motioning Lin Yuxi to continue.
Lin Yuxi pursed her lips, organized her words, and then said: "Professors all know that Su Yao came from ancient times. I'm afraid you don't know that when Su Yao first traveled through time, she happened to fall into my swimming pool, right?"
The professors present all looked surprised when they heard this. Was it Lin Yuxi's swimming pool where Su Yao fell? And Lin Yuxi was a famous time traveler. Was it such a coincidence?
Is there any connection between them?
Professor Zhou frowned slightly, looked at Lin Yuxi and asked, "I have never heard of this before. What then?"
Lin Yuxi paused, observing the professors' expressions. Seeing that they were all waiting for the next words with great interest, she continued:
"She fell into my swimming pool and showed that she couldn't swim, so I asked my servants to rescue her. So when we first met, she was a little embarrassed!"
Several professors nodded and understood. They thought the little girl’s self-esteem was understandable!
"Later, I asked my servants to prepare some clothes for Su Yao to change into. Professors, you know that our modern clothes are a bit more revealing than their ancient clothes!"
"Su Yao seemed to have misunderstood and thought we were humiliating her, so she refused to wear it!"
"In the end, the servants had no choice but to simply help Su Yao and wash her clothes again, and only then did they barely finish washing."
The professors all listened quietly with focused expressions.
Lin Yuxi took a deep breath and continued, "Later I called the police. After Su Yao was taken away, I thought she was just a small episode in my life and would never appear again!"
"But something even more unexpected is yet to come. My boyfriend and I ran into Su Yao again when we were moving that day, and I noticed that the way she looked at my boyfriend Shen Minghui was not right."
"There was shock, joy, and more importantly, a frightening determination in his eyes!"
At this point, Lin Yuxi's face showed a bitter smile and helplessness, and her voice trembled slightly. "Later, I found out that Shen Minghui actually looked exactly like the prince Su Yao had in ancient times."
Lin Yuxi clenched her hands into fists, her knuckles turning white. "I will never forget the look in Su Yao's eyes at that time. It was a crazy possessiveness, as if Shen Minghui was supposed to belong to her!
Who knew that after asking, I found out that even the ancient prince had nothing to do with Su Yao himself!
Su Yao had only seen the prince from a distance, and her ancient father, the Marquis, said that she was the most likely candidate for the crown princess, so she plunged headfirst into it..."
Professor Zhou frowned and said, "Did she do anything extreme?"
Lin Yuxi shook her head. "Not yet, but she always looks at me with hostility. I am worried that after I join the research team, these disputes with her will affect the research progress, so I feel it is necessary to explain the situation to the professors in advance."
At this time, Professor Li next to him spoke up: "Student Lin, it's good that you can be frank. But our research group focuses on academics and results. As long as it does not affect work, conflicts between individuals should be resolved internally as much as possible. Of course, if there are really irreconcilable problems, we will also come forward to coordinate."
Professor Wang at the side also spoke to comfort her: "Student Yuxi, don't worry. If she really does something excessive, we will definitely deal with it fairly and will not let her interfere with important research work."
Lin Yuxi glanced at Professor Wang gratefully, "Thank you, Professor. I just hope to prevent possible problems in advance and try to avoid unnecessary trouble."
Professor Zhou nodded. "You did the right thing, Lin. We will keep an eye on this situation. You should also be more careful when you get along with her."
Lin Yuxi nodded solemnly, "I will, Professor."

Shen family
After working hard for so many days, Shen Minghui finally heard good news.
"Dad, have you really decided to marry Aunt Gu?" Shen Minghui's face was full of joy and anticipation.
Shen Bin smiled and nodded, saying, "Yes, Minghui. Your Aunt Gu and I have discussed that we will not hold a wedding, but simply get a marriage certificate, and then we will go to Antarctica to watch penguins for our honeymoon."
Shen Minghui's eyes flashed with surprise: "Dad, this is good. As long as you and Aunt Gu are happy, everything is fine."
A few days later, Shen Bin and Gu Wanting obtained their marriage certificate, packed their luggage and set off for Antarctica.
After Shen Minghui sent the two away, the tension in his heart finally eased. Phew, now he finally has nothing to worry about!
