Chapter 277: Chapter 272: Psychological Problems. Research Institute Written Exam. Chapter 277: Chapter 272: Psychological Problems. Research Institute Written Exam. Shen Yan remembered that this woman surnamed Zhai was put into the hospital last year, and someone from the Qi Family even visited her after she was discharged?

No need to say it out loud.

It was clear that Qi Ran and Zhai Xilan were close.

Perhaps they were even best friends of some sort.

Shen Yan was not wrong.

Qi Ran and Zhai Xilan were good sisters.

Xilan often visited the Qi Family because of Qi Ran.

Knowing that Xilan liked Qi Si, Qi Ran even tried to play matchmaker.

What a pity that while the concubine was willing, the gentleman was not.

Qi Si was wholly devoted to his career, and with Grandma Qi overseeing his marital affairs, he never made contact with women not approved by her.

Since returning to the family estate, Qi Si began to slowly engage in the family business, and upon truly entering corporate work, he climbed to an unreachable position within a short span of one or two years, subsequently taking over as the head of authority, holding that position even now.

Every girl who knew Qi Si liked him.

It was just his cold demeanor that made people reluctant to approach him.

In Qi Ran’s view, it was only because of Grandma Qi that Qi Si compromised and married Shen Yan.

“You’re telling me this, are you hoping I will join you in visiting her?” Shen Yan asked in a calm voice.

“I didn’t mean that, I was just mentioning it. Xilan used to come over to our home quite often, and our families, the Qis and the Zhais, are old acquaintances. I heard there was a bit of unpleasantness between you and the Zhai Family, and with our families’ relationship, isn’t there anything that can’t be discussed and resolved? There’s no need to make a fuss.”

Shen Yan could tell, they were hinting at her being unreasonable, making a mountain out of a molehill.

“When she had someone attack me in secret, she didn’t think of sitting down to talk first.”

Qi Ran frowned, “Xilan is not that kind of person, there must be some misunderstanding between you two. It’s too much that this misunderstanding almost cost her life.”

“So in your eyes, this is just a bit of unpleasantness, a misunderstanding. If that’s the case, why bother telling me all this nonsense?” Shen Yan scoffed mockingly, no longer engaging with Qi Ran, and walked ahead.

Qi Ran watched her retreating figure with a frown.

Qi Ran’s brief appearance gave Shen Yan a very uncomfortable feeling.

Her grip on the steering wheel was several degrees tighter than usual.

From Qi Ran’s words, one could imagine how Zhai Xilan had accompanied Qi Si in the past and watched him step by step to where he was now, while she, having to take something from someone else to get to his side.

Only a brief year.

The dark side of her heart began to surge.

A vast darkness descended, and Shen Yan’s breathing became heavy and cold, as if drenched in ice water.

“Shi!”

Shen Yan abruptly hit the brakes and stopped on the side of the road, breathing slightly hurriedly.

Her hands gripping the steering wheel tightly made a creaking noise.

Pulling herself out of those controlled emotions, Shen Yan was startled!

Cold sweat broke out on Shen Yan’s forehead.

What had she just been thinking?

To violently strangle anyone who got close to Qi Si.

Shen Yan adjusted her dark state of mind, slowly regaining her rationality.

This situation… hadn’t happened before…

Shen Yan vaguely realized that there was something wrong with her psyche.

She could only use morals to restrain herself, to stop manifesting things that aren’t characteristic of a normal person. She was already abnormal enough; if new problems arose, she would again be studied like a monster.

Shen Yan’s hands trembled.

Her face was slightly pale.

Upon arriving at the address given by Professor Lin, Shen Yan’s emotions had completely stabilized.

As soon as the car stopped, someone came up with an instrument and scanned it several times before allowing Shen Yan to get out of the car. After getting out, she had to have all her belongings checked, all electronic devices like cellphones were stored in one place, and then she was taken onto another car to continue deeper inside.

After passing through about three checkpoints, Shen Yan finally saw several buildings ahead.

The serene and beautiful environment gave the impression of being in a tourist attraction.

But this was the Beijing Research Institute!

The car stopped in front of one of the buildings.

Professor Lin and another person were standing at the entrance waiting for Shen Yan.

The person next to Professor Lin frowned upon seeing Shen Yan’s appearance. Probably because she was young and beautiful, yet also a celebrity, he felt that Shen Yan was not secure and that her presence had an air of frivolity to it.

So, he had great skepticism toward her.

He doubted that the material was written by Shen Yan herself, let alone understood any of the research.

“Professor Lin!”

“Here!” Professor Lin pointed to the middle-aged man beside him and introduced, “This is Vice Dean Shao from our Institute! He was a genius known for miles around in his youth!”

Hearing the phrase “for miles around,” Vice Dean Shao’s brows wrinkled tightly. “What kind of adjective is that? If you don’t know how to use it, don’t use it.”

Professor Lin smiled warmly and seemed to be of good temper.

Vice Dean Shao, on the other hand, was stern and cold-faced. He glanced at Shen Yan, “The internal test has been prepared. Several respected Academicians from the Institute will personally invigilate.”

Shen Yan was taken aback.

Such arrangements made her wonder if it was more about valuing or being overly cautious.

However.

Shen Yan took it as a sign of the Institute valuing her.

“I will do my best.”

“It’s almost time; go in,” Vice Dean Shao turned to glance at Professor Lin, “Aren’t you ill? I’ll take your place in invigilating today; go see the doctor first.”

Professor Lin and Vice Dean Shao were about the same age, yet Professor Lin looked more haggard than Vice Dean Shao.

Professor Lin smiled, “I brought her here, so I have to be present. Vice Dean Shao, please take your own seat.”

Vice Dean Shao stared at Professor Lin, his expression somewhat cold, “Don’t bother the doctor if your health collapses.”

With a flick of his hand, Vice Dean Shao strode into the building, appearing somewhat irate.

Professor Lin wasn’t offended and still had a smile on his face: “That’s just his temper, don’t mind him. Go on in.”

Inside the building, fifteen seats surrounded a cleared space in the center.

This setting wasn’t much different from conventional written exams, but the atmosphere made it much more suffocating.

The fifteen individuals sitting here were either from the Institute or well-known figures from outside. Anyone watched intently by such prominent figures would feel pressured, even alarmed.

But when Shen Yan entered and saw this scenario, she felt nothing.

If you’ve been studied by several impassive researchers for years, then facing such a scene would feel like child’s play.

Seeing Shen Yan, the people from the Institute looked at each other.

Not everyone present paid attention to the internet or the entertainment industry, and they were not clear about Shen Yan’s identity.

But seeing someone as young as Shen Yan did raise some objections and doubts.

Shen Yan first introduced herself to everyone with neither humility nor arrogance. She seemed remarkably composed, and for a moment, this dispelled the audience’s perception of ‘youth’.

Then Professor Lin personally announced some details about Shen Yan, which earned furrowed brows in response.

Vice Dean Shao said nothing, simply signaling to distribute the papers. Shen Yan received the lengthy, dense exam papers and smiled.

She had to complete these long and detailed test papers under the watchful eyes of these people, a significant pressure indeed.

She noticed there were quite a few cameras overhead.

In another building of the Institute, Shen Ning took off her white gloves and asked a colleague walking past, “Is there something happening at the Institute today? Many Academicians and professors are not here.”

The person replied, “I heard there’s an internal test.”

“An internal test!” Shen Ning couldn’t help being shocked, “Someone’s actually taking that kind of test!”

The person also showed a look of surprise, “When I asked earlier, my reaction was the same as yours. Anyone who can take such an internal test must be a genius among geniuses. Not something we with ordinary minds can compare to. There are more geniuses in this world than we imagine, but a genius among geniuses, that’s indeed rare.”

So they were curious about what kind of person would take an internal test!
