Or rather, anything important enough for her, the chairwoman of Prism, to deliver in person could not possibly be unimportant.
So when he saw Ye Shanshan lay out the sample from the case, even Xu Shi was mildly surprised.
"The Phase Two Overlimit Project product has been developed this quickly?"
He knew perfectly well how much effort from the two conglomerates had gone into the small vial before him. Its only flaw was its appearance—it always reminded him of a certain viral agent that had ravaged Raccoon City... even the glowing blue color was the same. It was pretty funny.
Were they Prism or Umbrella, huh?
"It's only a sample. Reaching the point where it works reliably without side effects will probably take some more time."
Xie Qingyan smiled. "What? Chairman Xu didn't know? Your subordinates didn't report it to you?"
"With you here in person, why would I need my subordinates to report anything?"
Xu Shi looked at her with a smile. The truth was, he was not worried at all that the drug could not be developed.

Xu Shi ignored her sidelong glance
