Meanwhile, the others continued to follow Third Young Master Jun and FSA Company’s senior staff for various evaluations.

Ye Lu looked around the colossal laboratory, the only one, and gritted her teeth with determination.

"Humph, this is just a minor thing. Can it really knock me down? A mere experiment is not worth mentioning." She began to work diligently, beginning to slice various culture medium materials.

Back in the day, when she was first starting out in the lab, she had stayed up until the early hours of the morning for several days in a row to finish her experiments.

Third Young Master’s disdainful gaze further spurred her on, as if he was looking at someone with no skills.

"I will definitely succeed. Our FSA Company will win the tender. Just you wait." Ye Lu poured the materials into the furnace, her eyes flashing brightly, her heart filled with fighting spirit and unlimited expectations for the future.

She had previously thought that Third Young Master would prevent the FSA Company from winning the tender because of her.

However, from the final round of bidding, she and the director noticed that Third Young Master Jun attached great importance to this project. He personally oversaw everything and the evaluation process was conducted at a very high professional level. Every detail was considered, allowing the shortlisted companies to compare their respective strengths and weaknesses. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

One could say that this was high-level competition.

The director said that Third Young Master Jun was very ambitious about this project and would surely choose the most advantageous company. Therefore, their FSA Company also had a great chance.

This was why Ye Lu was willing to take on this experiment. As long as there was a chance for FSA Company to win, she would strive hard to secure her own future.

A few hours later, the culture medium was ready. Ye Lu poured them into five hundred petri dishes for cooling. She was sweating profusely, even though it was simple work, but the quantity was too much, which was quite tiring.

After filling five hundred petri dishes, Ye Lu finally had time to look at the time on the wall. She was startled to find out that it was already two in the afternoon.

She hurriedly jumped up, crying out, "My lunch!"

She was so immersed in her work that she forgot to eat. She quickly changed out of her lab clothes and hurried to the canteen. Tian Kun’s research institute had its own canteen.

When she arrived at the canteen, it was deserted. The auntie had cleaned up everything and was tidying up.

"Auntie, is there no food left?" She said with a pitiful expression.

The auntie looked at her in surprise, "Miss, haven’t you eaten yet? It’s way past lunchtime, why didn’t anyone call you? We always send someone to knock on the lab doors at meal times to remind everyone to eat."

"Maybe... I didn’t hear it." Ye Lu could not recall, "Auntie, is there any leftover food? I’m okay with leftovers."

"To ensure food hygiene and safety, we dispose of all leftovers after each meal. Miss, maybe you should go out and eat!"

Ye Lu was at her wit’s end. The research institute was located in the remote outskirts. If she were to drive back to the city, it would take at least two hours round trip, and she couldn’t afford to waste time.

"I’m in a hurry, I can’t leave."

"Then there’s nothing we can do. You’ll have to wait until dinner time. I have a bottle of milk here, you can take it. It should tide you over for a while."

Ye Lu had no choice. Going without one meal shouldn’t be a big deal, right? She thanked the auntie, drank the milk, and hurried back to the laboratory to continue her experiment.

She moved all the petri dishes into the sterile lab, then began selecting plant branches, cutting them into small pieces of tissue, and disinfecting them. She had to do everything herself, keeping her so busy she almost lost track of time.

Not until her phone rang did she realize it was already six-thirty.
