2217 You’re Comparing Him to Me?
She bit her lip. She already had a bad feeling.
Gu Hengbo was not a talkative person. He only said coldly, “Someone posted what you did on the forum of the research institute, causing a huge commotion. The research institute is already preparing to hold a meeting to discuss how to deal with it…
“In this situation, you definitely won’t be able to enter the Level 8 laboratory. In the future…”
Ji Ziyin’s eyes darkened and her eyelashes trembled.
The future?
Did she still have a future?
Gu Hengbo did not finish his sentence. “In short, let’s see the final outcome of this matter first.
“If the results are good, you might be able to enter a Level 8 laboratory in the future. If the results are not good…”
Gu Hengbo did not finish his sentence.
However, Ji Ziyin knew very well.
If the matter was not handled well, she might not even be able to stay in the research institute!
Ji Ziyin panicked. “Teacher, I…”
Gu Hengbo knew what she wanted to say and said in a low voice, “I’ll try my best to protect you. However, the impact of this matter is too detrimental. The other party has blown up the matter to the point that everyone in the research institute knows… I’ll try my best. I’ll tell you the results on my side. You can also think of a way.”
“I’m still in the hospital… What can I do…”
Gu Hengbo interrupted her, “Actually, anyone with a discerning eye can tell that as long as you have a way to make Qiao Nian not pursue the matter, this matter can be resolved.”
Ji Ziyin’s reaction was intense when she thought of the pain she had suffered not long ago. “I won’t lower my head to her!”
Gu Hengbo did not force her. “…This concerns your future and whether you can continue to stay in the research institute. Think about it yourself!”
Ji Ziyin was still thinking about it when Gu Hengbo hung up.
Ji Xiao helped her take the phone away. He wanted to say something but hesitated. “We have no way out now. Your teacher is right. If you want to stay in the research institute, you can only bow down to her.”
Ji Ziyin’s face was pale, but her eyes were filled with anger and dissatisfaction. She raised her eyes and looked at him coldly. “Qiao Nian chopped one of my fingers, and I have to apologize to her? On what grounds!”
She was not a direct descendant of the Ji family, but she was the most promising person among the younger generation in the family.
Although she was not as reckless as Ji Nan and did whatever she wanted, at the very least, she was respectfully addressed as ‘Miss Ji’ wherever she went.
When had Ji Ziyin ever suffered a huge loss?
She really could not take this lying down!
Her head was about to explode from anger. Her chest heaved as she panted, and her watery eyes were filled with cold hatred.
“I can’t apologize to her!”
Ji Ziyin spoke quickly and anxiously. She also turned her head away as if she did not want to listen to Ji Xiao’s advice.
Ji Xiao was not her parent, to begin with, so he did not have much patience for her.
Seeing that Ji Ziyin still cared about her face at this juncture, his gloomy triangular eyes narrowed slightly, and he said impatiently, “I’ve always thought you were a smart person. I don’t know why you can’t hold it in every time you meet Qiao Nian. It’s fine if you don’t want to apologize! The Ji family will definitely nurture a new person to replace you when the First Research Institute expels you. Think about it carefully.”
Ji Ziyin’s shoulders twitched.
Ji Xiao stood beside her bed and was not in a hurry. “Your talent in black gunpowder is not irreplaceable.
“There’s still Ji Hongfeng among the family’s younger generation.”
Ji Ziyin suddenly turned around and stared at him dangerously. “You’re comparing him to me?”
