“It's complete!” Rhea exclaimed a little too excitedly. However, before she could take a look, Lily glanced back at her and said, “Don’t move.”
Rhea immediately fell silent. The most exasperating thing for her was that she had subconsciously obeyed Lily's instructions.
"Lily, don't make a mountain out of a molehill," Rhea complained angrily, "Do you honestly think you're so great? Let me tell you something. If this experiment fails, nothing good will happen to you."
"We’ll only know that once I fail," Lily said calmly with a slight smile, "What's wrong? Are you hoping I’ll fail?"
"How do I…" Before Rhea could finish speaking, she noticed Lily had already gotten up and walked toward the instrument. Lily turned off the switch unhurriedly and took out a few small vials to place them on the shelf next to her.
Rhea became nervous as she looked at the clear liquid inside and the data on the computer frantically refreshed. She fixed her eyes on the screen unblinkingly, while Lily seemed indifferent.
Lily stood up and paced around the room unhurriedly. She had sat for too long and needed to stretch her muscles. Her body had grown stiff after experimenting for such a long time.
The numbers on the computer finally stopped, and the word 100% finally flashed across the screen. All the shaded parts overlapped completely, and the red area flashed.
Rhea exclaimed in shock, "It's a success!"
Lily heard her voice and stopped to turn and look at the numbers on the computer. She did not look excited. Instead, she looked a little surprised, as if she did not expect to succeed or wanted it to succeed.
