He Zijian disagreed with Ji Ning's opinion: "You're overthinking. Professor Yang is a scholar; he doesn't have such convoluted intentions. He doesn't need to deal with any of this, and we don't need to overthink it either. We just need to do our job well. Professor Yang is leading us on a project; it's an excellent learning opportunity."
"I don't see it that way. Who knows how long this project will last? If it's a year or six months, fine. But if it lasts several years, won't we just be wasting our time? Others will be producing results and papers, while we'll just be loafing around." Ji Ning still disagreed.
Among the other three people, one agreed with Ji Ning's opinion, while the other two doctors weren't interested in thinking about these things. Anyway, they were all doing research in the laboratory; it didn't matter which project it was, as long as they could quietly do their research.
"Hey, you there?" Someone jumped into the conversation.
