Chapter 45 Running Into Rolf\u00a0<\/p>\n
Skyla said, \u201cGot it. I care about results. I will handle it as fast as possible. I\u2019ll do my best to\u00a0<\/p>\n
convince the boss.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Norris, as the head of the lab, felt very satisfied with Skyla\u2019s attitude.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He also understood why Troy appreciated her, because she really was an exceptional woman.\u00a0<\/p>\n
After they talked a bit more about the project details, Skyla went back to her desk.\u00a0<\/p>\n
All of her things had already been moved into the former team lead\u2019s office.\u00a0<\/p>\n
High intelligence did not mean low emotional awareness. Any team had a few people who knew how to read the room.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cJessica Chenuck?\u201d Skyla sat down in the chair Jessica had dusted off and looked up at her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cHello, Ms. Summer. I\u2019m Jessica, the former leads assistant.\u201d Her attitude was very good.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Skyla liked obedient people. She smiled. \u201cA lot of people out there still aren\u2019t convinced by me. Yet you\u2019re already showing loyalty. Aren\u2019t you worried the others will freeze you out?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Jessica said plainly, \u201cI admire strength. You solved issues the former lead could not solve. So I respect you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Skyla was pleased. \u201cAlright, go do your work. I will call you if I need you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
After she left, Skyla tapped her fingers on the desk, then made a call.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cRolf, I already contacted the boss. Maybe we can meet the developer of LugiX tomorrow. Could you come with me?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Rolf said, \u201cOf course.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Skyla brought Rolf because he was an extra advantage.\u00a0<\/p>\n
After all, the son of the richest man in the city was a useful connection.\u00a0<\/p>\n
As for Halle, she got lucky three years ago and developed LugiX. Compared to the endless new Al assistants being launched by major tech companies now, Halle\u2019s success came from being ahead of the curve, being the first to reap the benefits.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Other than that, she was average.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In a few years, LugiX would be outdated.\u00a0<\/p>\n
1\/3\u00a0<\/p>\n
However, the schedule Halle gave her required a week.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The situation was urgent, so Skyla planned to go to ZeitTech tomorrow to meet her directly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Even though it was a sudden visit, Skyla was sure Halle would be happy to see her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Troy had been taking her everywhere, and she was no longer the old Skyla.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Not long after Ayla hung up the phone, Halle sent the documents.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ayla had finished her work early and opened the file.\u00a0<\/p>\n
There were confidentiality measures, so it was impossible for it to be the complete project.\u00a0<\/p>\n
It only contained the problems, but even that took about 30 pages.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ayla read through them quickly. The description of the issues lacked precision, and the referenced papers had weak relevance. Therefore, she reorganized everything.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She compressed the thirty pages into ten.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Then, she listed several possible solutions, and according to that direction, she downloaded relevant papers from around the world with speed and accuracy.\u00a0<\/p>\n
When she finished most of it, she remembered a book written by Avery.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Because the terminology was too abstract and the reading threshold was extremely high, fewer than a hundred copies were printed, and there were no images or scans online.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ayla searched. The city library had one copy.\u00a0<\/p>\n
After work and dinner, she went straight there.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She found the book in its section, but as she reached for it, a hand suddenly appeared and took another related book from the shelf. She glanced at the title. It was a beginner-level book.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cSmall world.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ayla looked\u00a0<\/p>\n
He knew she was looking at him, so he finally raised his eyes. His tone was calm, but there was a faint, hard-to-detect edge. \u201cYou\u2019re interested in computer science too?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
He was meeting high-IQ researchers tomorrow, so he wanted to cram.\u00a0<\/p>\n
2\/3\u00a0<\/p>\n
uming to No1\u00a0<\/p>\n
TINTIES VUITS.\u00a0<\/p>\n
A colleague from R&D made him a reading list. Online delivery would not arrive in time, so he came to borrow the books.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He did not expect to run into Ayla.\u00a0<\/p>\n
A huge surprise.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Like strawberries mixed with fish sauce, strange enough to make anyone queasy.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ayla frowned. She knew him, but they had not spoken more than five sentences.\u00a0<\/p>\n
They had no difference from strangers.\u00a0<\/p>\n
His tone sounded normal, like a casual question, but she felt the arrogance and disdain under it.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMy interest has nothing to do with you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Rolf froze, clearly not expecting that reaction. He frowned. \u201cDid I offend somehow?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
you\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ayla disliked the arrogance he carried. \u201cIf you don\u2019t know, then you don\u2019t know. Just like I don\u2019t understand why you suddenly came over to talk to me, and I\u2019m also not curious about why.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Then she pointed at the sign nearby.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cNo talking.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Rolf\u2019s expression darkened. His lips pressed down, forming an extremely unpleasant look.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The shift in his presence made several people nearby glance over.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Rolf was Troy\u2019s friend. Back then, Ayla was not close to him, but she kept basic politeness and would never have spoken this sharply.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But that only applied to the past.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She was divorced from Troy now. She wanted distance from anything related to him, and she had no patience for Rolf at all.\u00a0<\/p>\n
