2352 Do You Want Your Research Results Back?

“Oh.” The girl’s eyes darkened slightly. She nodded. She also ordered a drink, but she ordered ordinary fruit juice instead of coffee.

Bai Hui felt even more uncomfortable. She lowered her head and used her thick glasses to hide her bad mood.

She and Xu Yi entered the First Research Institute in the same year. Neither of them had a background.

She was lucky enough to be chosen by Gu Hengbo from the Level 5 laboratory, while Xu Yi was assigned to the Level 4 laboratory.

At that time, she thought that she was the lucky one because Gu Hengbo valued her, but the person in charge of the Level 4 laboratory ignored Xu Yi.

She remembered that at that time, she had even privately encouraged him since she considered him a younger brother. She told him confidently that no matter if they came from poor families or not, as long as they worked hard, they would definitely stand out one day.

Until…

All her dreams were crushed by the person she admired the most.

The waiter quickly brought the orange juice over.

Qiao Nian realized that the fruit juice was actually slightly warm. She subconsciously turned around and saw Ye Wangchuan leaning against the bar counter, looking like a ‘waiter’.

The corners of her mouth twitched. She retracted her gaze and lowered her head to take a sip of fruit juice. Then, she looked at the person staring at her in a daze. “Is Gu Hengbo’s latest project your research result?”

Bai Hui suddenly raised her head. Her eyes trembled, and she almost spilled the coffee. “You, you…”

Qiao Nian knew the truth upon seeing her reaction. After putting another cube of sugar in her coffee, she calmly said, “I’ve checked. Gu Hengbo’s research results in the past few years were all provided by you, including some of his proud student Ji Ziyin’s research results.”

After taking a small sip of juice, Qiao Nian put down the cup, leaned back on the chair, and looked at her with her dark eyes. “Why did you give them your research results for free?”

Bai Hui’s initial shock turned to panic before she gradually calmed down. She tightened her plaid skirt and looked up at the girl. She had been under immense pressure for the past few years. Her voice trembled. “He told me that if I don’t give him the research results, then they can’t be published. I… I devoted all my heart and soul to these projects as if they were my own child. I don’t want them to be buried forever, never to see the light of the sun.”

She could be nameless, but she hoped that the results of her efforts could shine in the vast scientific field of the world.

This thought kept supporting her.

“I think… even if I wasn’t the one to publish them, at least… everyone in the world knows about them.”

From the moment Qiao Nian found out that the person behind the black market ID was Gu Hengbo, she got Guan Yan to investigate his background. It was not difficult to investigate Gu Hengbo’s background, but even Qiao Nian felt disgusted by what she found.

On the surface, Gu Hengbo was focused on his research. Over the years, other than Shi Fu, he was the person who produced the most results in the research institute.

However, who knew that he would often seize the research results of his subordinates and announce them to the public as his research results?

Gu Hengbo was a complete hypocrite. His sanctimonious style of doing things was a perfect match for Ji Ziyin!

After figuring out why Bai Hui did not say anything after Gu Hengbo snatched her research results, Qiao Nian decisively asked her, “Do you want your research results back?”
