Xie Changning immediately raised the stakes, demanding to know what the official meant.
The rivalry between the two nations was a constant, but it had yet to spill out into the open.
Especially since the two nations were still in a so-called honeymoon period, this official could only make trouble behind the scenes. He couldn't let it become an international incident.
So, after being threatened by Xie Changning, all he could do was shoot her a vicious glare before turning to leave.
After he left, Xie Changning stood there for a long time, her brow furrowed.
'It looks like today's lot drawing won't go smoothly either.'
'Since he couldn't stop us from reaching the semi-finals, he'll definitely try to tamper with the labs.'
But Xie Changning wasn't particularly afraid.
She composed herself and said to the people behind her, "Let's go. It's almost time for the drawing. We'd better rub our hands for good luck and draw a really great lab."
"Yeah!"
