Chapter 2302 Gu Hengbo Doesn’t Have the Ability to Put Ji Ziyin in the Limelight

Qiao Nian sneered and lowered her voice, speaking at a volume that only the two of them could hear. "I know what you’re thinking. But I’m sorry, I want the First Research Institute. The reclusive family, tsk, if you want to go to them, I won’t stop you.

"We have different goals."

Ji Ziyin’s expression changed when Qiao Nian mentioned the ’reclusive family’. She turned sideways and looked in Feng Yu’s direction.

She now suspected that Feng Yu had introduced Martin to Qiao Nian.

At the thought that she was already one step behind, her confidence immediately turned into uneasiness and impetuousness, and her expression was filled with surprise.

Not long after Ji Ziyin left, Gu Hengbo also found an excuse to leave. Feng Yu asked Shi Fu, Zhou Zhou, and the other laboratory heads to leave first, leaving Qiao Nian alone with him.

After everyone left.

Feng Yu immediately walked over. "Why did you let Ji Ziyin sign up? She came prepared this time. You were too rash. You should have asked me."

Qiao Nian walked to the desk and sat down. Using the computer to check the information, she casually answered his question. "I heard that Ji Ziyin has been in the limelight recently."

Feng Yu avoided her gaze and covered his mouth with his fist to cover up a cough. "Don’t worry about this."

It was not that he wanted to cover up for Ji Ziyin, but he did not want Qiao Nian to be impulsive and settle scores with her and the rest.

After all, Ji Ziyin had the Ji family backing her up.

Qiao Nian would be at a disadvantage if she was alone.

Moreover, there was no evidence.

If he had evidence, he would have said everything openly and asked Ji Lingfeng for an explanation.

As Qiao Nian spoke to him, she pulled up the SCI official website. Then, she entered Ji Ziyin’s name in the search column and hit the Enter button. Three research results popped up.

Qiao Nian looked at the screen and clicked on the links, reading through the SCI results one by one.

"Hmm."

"Semiconductor light source technology?"

The girl’s voice was light.

"How did you know?" Feng Yu’s hair stood on end as he craned his neck to look at the screen. "Y-You found it?"

Qiao Nian moved her chair back generously and made way for him to see.

When Feng Yu saw the SCI official website displayed on the screen and the public news that Qiao Nian had opened, he knew that Qiao Nian discovered everything.

He rubbed his temples. "…It’s the one you’re looking at. You know that semiconductor technology is the focus of global attention. She ’conquered’ three core technological research in the semiconductor field in a row and even produced results. How can the outside world not pay attention to her? Therefore, many people have been looking for her recently. She’s getting more and more famous in the independent continent."

Qiao Nian sat on the chair with her arms crossed. Her fingers tapped her arms as she patiently listened to him.

Just as Feng Yu thought that she had not noticed…

She said softly, "So, Ji Ziyin took my mother’s research results from somewhere."

Feng Yu opened his mouth. His expression changed, but he could not deny her guess.

Qiao Nian knew that she had guessed correctly when she saw his reaction. She stood up and said, "20 years ago, everyone in the Level 8 laboratory had a notebook to record experimental data. Auntie Xie gave her notebook to me. Gu Hengbo’s notebook should be firmly in his possession. It’s impossible for him to give it away easily. Moreover, Gu Hengbo is good at the physics field. His achievements in the physics field are even inferior to Zhou Zhou’s. He doesn’t have the ability to put Ji Ziyin in the limelight."
