2216 Sorry, Itâs Not Sister Nian This Time
In the hospital.
Ji Ziyin slowly woke up.
Her eyelashes fluttered, and it took her a long time to realize her situation. The pain from her left pinky caused her to lose the strength to lift her arm.
The corners of Ji Ziyinâs eyes were red. In extreme pain, she wished she could get up immediately and cause trouble for Qiao Nian.
How dare she⦠do this!
Was Qiao Nian crazy?!
Ji Ziyin was gritting her teeth and thinking about how to teach Qiao Nian an unforgettable lesson when the ward door was pushed open and Ji Xiao entered.
Ji Ziyin forced herself to sit up on her elbows. âPatriarch and the othersâ¦â
âTheyâre outside.â Ji Xiao walked to the front of her bed, not knowing what to tell her. After helping her up, he avoided Ji Ziyinâs gaze and said in a low voice, âYou were too impulsive this time! I told you before that she had offended too many people. The Ji family wonât let her return. You should have told me before you did anything⦠You shouldnât have done such a thing behind my back. Sheâs a rock in the latrine. Youâre the only one at a disadvantage if you go head-on with her time and time again!â
Ji Ziyin lowered her eyelashes to hide her emotions and said coldly, âDonât tell me you think I did it too? I didnât do it.â
Ji Xiaoâs heart sank when he saw that she was still lying to him. He was a little angry now. âTheyâve found evidence.â
Ji Ziyin raised her head abruptly.
Evidence?
How was that possible?
She thought that she had done it flawlessly. It was impossible for that idiot Xie Xinyao to have evidence of her involvement.
As long as Xie Xinyao had no evidence that she had participated, Qiao Nianâs actions were enough to get her expelled from the First Research Institute.
Ji Xiao took a deep breath when he saw her shocked expression. He looked into her eyes and told her what happened outside.
âFeng Yu told the Patriarch that he treats everyone equally. Previously, we requested him to expel Qiao Nian. Now, the attitude of the First Research Institute is the same. They want to expel you.â
Ji Ziyinâs heart skipped a beat, and her face turned pale. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Fortunately, Ji Xiao did not tell her bad news only. âThe Patriarch did not agree.
âOther than you, we canât find anyone else in the Ji familyâs younger generation. Our choice now is to protect you and give up on Qiao Nian.â
âThenâ¦â
âThe family will think of a way to protect you,â Ji Xiao whispered.
Ji Ziyin heaved a sigh of relief and became even weaker. She did not even have the strength to speak.
She still had to enter the Level 8 laboratory.
Gu Hengbo and Shi Fu were about to reach an agreement.
It was already a sure bet that she would enter the Level 8 laboratory. What Ji Ziyin cared about the most was her chance to enter the Level 8 laboratory.
At this moment, Ji Xiao saw her cell phone ring.
He walked over and bent down to pick it up. After taking a look, he said with a strange expression, âYour teacher is looking for you.â
Ji Ziyin had just finished her surgery and the anesthetic had yet to completely fade from her system.
She asked Ji Xiao to bring his phone over and answered Gu Hengboâs call. âHello, Teacher.â
Gu Hengboâs voice came from the other end. His tone was very angry. âYou canât forget about entering the Level 8 laboratory.â
Ji Ziyinâs heart suddenly lost its tension. It was as if she had fallen into a bottomless abyss, and her entire body could not help but tremble.
She did not know where she got the strength from, but she grabbed the blanket and asked in a low voice, âWhy?â
Didnât Shi Fu agree to let her enter the Level 8 laboratory? Why did he change his mind in the blink of an eyeâ¦
A personâs name appeared in Ji Ziyinâs mind.
Qiao Nian?
