Rebirth in the 1980s: Xiaoxiao's road to becoming a top student

Chapter 145: Another Mission

The scientific researchers sent this time are all relatively young faces. The professor leading the team is only in his forties, and there are several young people in their twenties.

There were seven men and one woman. The most eye-catching one was a young man who was tall, had delicate looks, wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, and had skin so white that it seemed to be glowing.

But this person's face had no expression and looked very serious, which made people afraid to get close to him at first sight.

Yan Xiaoxiao glanced at the man's face and called out to Zhou Aimin next to her, "Director Zhou!"

Zhou Aimin, who was explaining something to the professor in charge, turned around and saw Yan Xiaoxiao and waved at her.

"Xiaoxiao is here. This is Professor Zeng, the team leader this time."

Then he said to Professor Zeng, "This is our security team leader this time, Yan Xiaoxiao. Everything will be arranged by her after we go abroad."

Professor Zeng’s eyebrows were almost twisted together. This little girl is still a junior high school student, right?

Thinking that the National Security Bureau would not joke with their lives, he opened and closed his mouth but ultimately said nothing.

But some people disliked Yan Xiaoxiao.

The young female researcher with big wavy hair and delicate makeup on her face was a little dissatisfied, "Director Zhou, we are not going to have fun this time. This meeting is very important. You sent a yellow-haired girl. Aren't you afraid that something might happen to us?"

As soon as she said this, people who already had some doubts about Yan Xiaoxiao's age also started talking about it.

"Yeah, the little girl is too young, she looks like a junior high school student!"

"What's going on with this National Security Agency? Is no one using it anymore?"

"The National Security Bureau must have its reasons for making such an arrangement. We just need to follow their instructions. The country will never joke about our safety."

Zhou Aimin stood aside with a smile on his face. When the discussions among the people gradually died down, he slowly spoke. What he said surprised everyone present.

"In fact, we didn't originally plan for Yan Xiaoxiao to accompany you, but because she was named, she took the time to accompany you on this trip."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a gasp in the audience. Was his name called?

Everyone knows that the current National Security Bureau is directly responsible to the chief, and the one Zhou Aimin mentioned is obviously the one.

These people looked at Yan Xiaoxiao in a strange way. They didn't expect that this pretty girl would be listed on the list. Her future must be limitless!

Zhou Ting's eyes flashed behind her glasses, but her face remained expressionless.

Yan Xiaoxiao was also a little surprised. She wondered why such things always happened to her. It turned out that someone had called her name. After thinking about it carefully, she understood that person's intention.

Although the incident of Country R detaining scientific researchers last time made this trip a little tense, there are probably not many people as brainless as the Ito family.

There shouldn't be any danger on this trip, and there are only two reasons for letting her tag along.

First, just in case; second, to give her a chance to contact the outside world. It is said that this summit is very important, and the person probably wants her to go with him to broaden his horizons.

I have to say Yan Xiaoxiao is smart, she figured it out right away. She is very grateful for the above person's efforts. This is a rare opportunity, so it's okay to go out and have fun.

There were four people from the Security Department traveling with them. These four people were there to act as a deterrent in public, but Yan Xiaoxiao alone was enough in secret.

When boarding the plane, the young female researcher kept moving closer to Zhou Tingshen, "Team Leader Zhou, let me sit with you. I have some research questions I want to ask you."

Zhou Tingshen's face showed no emotion, and his words were still cold as usual, "Have you forgotten the confidentiality agreement? You are not allowed to discuss the research content outside."

Sun Mei was choked and speechless. She looked at Zhou Tingshen with a bad expression and sat next to Yan Xiaoxiao.

She stamped her feet. This Zhou Tingshen was really unromantic. He ignored such a beautiful woman like her and instead got close to a little girl who hadn't even fully grown her hair.

Could it be that this man really doesn't like women as the rumors say?

But she fell in love with him the first time she saw him, and she felt that only she was worthy of such a man.

Sun Mei clenched her fists as if to cheer herself up, then turned around and sat on the other side of the aisle that was separated her from Zhou Ting. The aisle was not wide, so they were basically next to each other.

Sun Mei didn't pay attention to who was next to her, she just kept glancing at Zhou Tingshen out of the corner of her eyes.

The young man sitting next to her blushed and lowered his head, not daring to look at her.

As soon as Yan Xiaoxiao got on the plane, she closed her eyes and began to rest. She wondered what Jingxin would do when he returned this time. Ever since Master Yuanci passed away, Yan Xiaoxiao had a vague feeling that this man was a little abnormal and had been deliberately enduring something.

So try not to provoke honest people, because if you provoke them, you don’t know what they may do.

But Yan Xiaoxiao was not worried about Jingxin but about the people he cared about. Tsk tsk, those people would probably be treated badly.

A cool and pleasant fragrance came faintly from the side, and Yan Xiaoxiao opened her eyes to look.

Zhou Tingshen's deep eyes seemed to be accusing and blaming her, which scared her so much that she quickly closed her eyes. She could only hear a deep low laugh in her ears.

"Xiaoxiao, how come you forgot about your brother after not seeing him for ten years?"

Yan Xiaoxiao closed her eyes and refused to open them, feeling that she was being unkind.

Alas! She now does things according to her heart. As for the people and things in the past, she just lets them go with the flow. There is no need to deliberately contact them. After all, everyone has their own life.

Anyway, Yan Xiaoxiao doesn't want anyone to disturb her life, and I think others would feel the same way!

Even with her eyes closed, she could still feel the burning gaze. She couldn't pretend any longer, so she slowly opened her eyes and forced a smile that she thought was very bright. "How could it be? I thought the little brother didn't recognize me! Haha!"

Zhou Tingshen carefully looked at the little girl whom he didn't have time to take a good look at last time. There was still some baby fat on her face, and her curved eyebrows made people feel happy just by looking at her. Her eyes seemed to be filled with tiny and mysterious light.

Yan Xiaoxiao seemed to have disappeared over the years. I didn’t expect to meet her in such an environment last time.

He had originally prepared to die in a foreign country, but he didn't expect that the little girl from ten years ago would save him again.

Zhou Tingshen acted like an older brother and rubbed the little girl's hair, which was as soft as it was ten years ago.

"It's okay!"

Yan Xiaoxiao felt a little warm in her heart when she heard that and she smiled.

Next to her, Sun Mei was about to bite her teeth off.

For three years, she thought Zhou Tingshen was a cold person and was equally distant to everyone, but she just discovered that he could be so gentle.

Ding Guohao, who was next to Sun Mei, saw all of this, but he lowered his head so that his face could not be seen clearly.

Since she didn't want to pretend anymore, Yan Xiaoxiao told Zhou Tingshen about her experiences over the years.

The two of them were whispering to each other, and even Professor Zeng, the team leader, couldn't help but look over several times.

Before they even got off the plane, everyone knew that a research geek in their institute was chatting animatedly with a young girl.
