Aike was well aware of that too, but in front of Su Jie and Zhang Manman, he naturally played the part of being a bit more pitiable in this respect.
Zhang Manman just smiled it off.
She was aware of some of the specifics since the Zhang Group and Umbrella Corporation were cooperating; she was not going to be misled by a few words from Aike.
However, Su Jie asked, "So, what results have come from the research?"
Aike called over a researcher, who was holding a stalk of white rice in his hands.
"This is the fruit of our research—Spirit White Rice!"
The researcher adjusted his slipping glasses, his voice trembling.
The frenzy in him could be sensed clearly, even through the lenses.
"Aside from the color being white, it's no different from ordinary rice," Zhang Manman spoke bluntly, "You wouldn't happen to be enticing attention simply by changing the color, would you?"
"How could you say that?!"
