Super Gene Hunting Ground

After the waiter ran to the second floor, the lobby on the first floor suddenly became chaotic.

Xiao Ling looked at Yang Xiao, feeling more and more that she couldn’t understand him anymore.

How many secrets does this guy really have?

This trip to the Genetic Store not only revealed signs of Yang Xiao being a super-rich individual, but now he seems to be someone of significant background.

Xiao Ling even wondered if Yang Xiao might be a government second-generation?

Originally holding Yang Xiao’s hand, she slightly loosened her grip.

She intended to let go, but Yang Xiao clasped her hand instead.

In front of so many people, she didn’t want to forcefully break free and could only let Yang Xiao continue to hold her hand.

The surrounding bystanders suddenly became excited. Everyone had long harbored resentment toward the few waiters at the Genetic Store,

but had always dared not voice their anger.

At most, they would complain to each other after leaving the Genetic Store, say a few curse words to vent.

These were all young heirs and heiresses who were usually extremely arrogant and reckless outside, but as soon as they entered the Genetic Store, they immediately became docile cats without any temper.

Now, they hoped to see these waiters being reprimanded by Yang Xiao, which was really satisfying and relieved their anger.

The waiter opposite the counter was visibly tense at the moment.

Usually accustomed to being overbearing, he didn’t know how to give himself an out for the moment, so he could only stand awkwardly.

However, two waiters beside him showed some cleverness and quickly walked over, smiling.

”Mister, we’re sorry, ignorance is no crime, don’t just stand here, go to the lobby over there, have some tea and take a rest.”

Yang Xiao smiled lightly:

”No need, I’ll just stand here waiting. People like us with such low status, where do we get the privilege to drink tea?

Do you even have tea prepared in the lobby? Why haven’t I seen it?”

Waiter: ”...”

The surrounding classmates shared a knowing smile.

The few waiters behind the counter looked very embarrassed.

Moments later, footsteps sounded on the stairs,

Everyone turned their heads to look, and saw the waiter from earlier quickly descend the stairs,

with a middle-aged man following behind him.

The waiter walked quickly to Yang Xiao, speaking very respectfully:

”Mister, this is our manager, Mr. Gu Qing.”

The middle-aged man behind nodded slightly at Yang Xiao and said:

”Are you Mr. Yang?”

Yang Xiao replied politely:

”Indeed, Yang Xiao pays respects to Mr. Gu Qing.”

Saying that, he bowed slightly.

Gu Qing hurriedly reached out both hands to hold Yang Xiao’s.

”Oh my, Mr. Yang, I’ve heard your name as loud as thunder, I never thought I’d have the chance to meet you, it’s like a dream come true!”

Yang Xiao chuckled:

”Oh, not at all!”

The event of Great Elder Gu Bo entrusting Yang Xiao with sending the Jade Pendant back to the Genetic Store Headquarters had spread through the entire Genetic Store internal system,

All Genetic Store managers had received a message: if a person named Yang Xiao sought help, everyone should make an effort to assist him.

This message was only received by the Genetic Store managers; the store employees naturally didn’t know about it.

At first, this message caused quite a stir within the Genetic Store internals, with everyone speculating: just who is this Yang Xiao, to actually receive protection from the Genetic Store Headquarters?

Thus, when Gu Qing said he’d heard the name as loud as thunder, it was not just empty praise.

Yang Xiao had long ago received relevant information from Gu Hai and Gustone and other senior figures, knowing that Great Elder Gu Bo had made arrangements so all people in the Genetic Store would provide him conveniences, so he was not surprised at what Gu Qing said.

However, within the lobby, dozens of students, along with Xiao Ling, and several counter waiters were all extremely shocked upon hearing this.

My God, just what is Yang Xiao’s background?

Even if Dean Xinghai himself came, Gu Qing’s enthusiasm wouldn’t be more than this.

Xiao Ling looked at Yang Xiao, her heart full of shock, surprise, confusion, and even a hint of anger.

Oh, you Yang Xiao, playing the fool, pretending to be weak, who knew you were someone with significant backing.

Her heart felt slightly deceived.

However, in front of so many people, not only could she not question Yang Xiao’s ”deceptive” behavior, but she had to act gentle and gracious.

Though straightforward, Xiao Ling was not reckless, nor was she a shrew—she knew to save some face for Yang Xiao in front of outsiders.

The counter waiters listened to Manager Gu Qing’s words and were dumbfounded.

Originally thinking Yang Xiao was just some offspring of a powerful person, relying on his father’s relationship with Gu Hai to make a fuss here, they never thought he himself was a ”big figure.”

Especially the waiter who had been mocking and making things difficult for Yang Xiao earlier, his legs now trembled.

Gu Qing forced a smile,

”Brother Yang, please come upstairs to the VIP room for a cup of tea.”

Yang Xiao nodded and said,

”Sure!”

Just about to lift his foot towards the stairs, he suddenly said:

”Mr. Gu Qing, earlier I sought to meet you, but somehow offended one of your waiters, who said I wasn’t qualified to see you,

I explained several times, and he said he would put me on a blacklist.

Cough, this matter still burdens me, please help me, don’t put me on the blacklist, otherwise, how can I come to the Genetic Store for transactions in the future.”

Yang Xiao spoke with a pitiable tone.

Gu Qing’s face immediately changed upon hearing this.

The last time Gu Qing reported to Headquarters, he specifically consulted a well-informed friend about the matter of Yang Xiao, why Headquarters would issue such a protective edict.

His friend mysteriously told him,

”It’s said that Yang Xiao is a friend of the Great Elder, entrusted with delivering a top-secret Jade Token, also ordered directly by the Great Elder to provide utmost assistance to him from the Genetic Store.

This matter you’re aware of, but don’t spread it around. In short, if you encounter this person, under no circumstances do you offend him, you know the Great Elder’s temperament.”

Now look at this, Yang Xiao in his official store nearly faced a closed door, almost missed.

The internal rules of the Genetic Store are extremely strict. If Yang Xiao casually complained to Gu Bo someday, he might be able to save his life but probably not his position, and advancing up would be even less likely.

On the flipped side, if Yang Xiao could say good things about him in front of Gu Bo, his future would naturally be even brighter and more splendid.

Gustone from Purple Origin Star was rewarded by Headquarters because he helped Yang Xiao successfully deliver the Great Elder’s message, with jurisdiction over all Genetic Stores on Purple Origin Star handed over to Gustone, which is known to all.

Gu Qing turned a dark face, swept his eyes over a few counter waiters and harshly said:

”Which blind one dared to do so, get over here!”
