Chapter 2883 The Last Experiment on the USB Drive
Ji Hongyuan arrived an hour later.
The matters at the Ji family were settled, but it was not what Ji Ziyin expected.
Her body went cold. She pinched her palms and questioned sharply, "How can they go back on their word? They agreed to let me take over Ji Lingfeng"s position. How can they deny it just like that?"
Leonard"s face was ashen. He stood up and looked down at Ji Hongyuan with narrowed eyes. "Who did this?"
Under his murderous gaze, Ji Hongyuan"s aura weakened. He hunched his back and said with an embarra.s.sed expression, "It"s Qiao Nian."
Leonard was slightly surprised, but not very much.
With a dark expression, he silently walked away to make a call.
Ji Ziyin knew he had gone to report the changes here to the Empress in Continent M.
She was so distraught that she was not in the mood to care what Leonard was going to say to the Empress. She felt as if a huge mountain was pressing down on her, and she could not move it no matter how hard she tried.
This pressure came uniquely from Qiao Nian.
It made it hard for her to breathe.
"I won"t give up." Ji Ziyin faced Ji Hongyuan with a vicious look in her eyes.
Ji Hongyuan was stunned. "What do you plan to do?"
Ji Ziyin remained expressionless and did not answer his question.
However, she knew clearly well that her only value to the Empress was to control the Ji family. If she failed, the Empress and the reclusive families would give up on her forever.
Ji Ziyin pinched her palm and closed her eyes, feeling powerlessness from her right leg…
Her face gradually contorted as she pinched her palm hard and coldly said, "In short, I won"t give up."
**
The next day.
Qiao Nian received a message from Leonard asking her out to meet him.
"Tsk."
Qiao Nian knew what he wanted to say. Her eyes turned cold. She deleted the message and blacklisted him.
After was.h.i.+ng up, she took her bag and went to the First Research Inst.i.tute.
Qiao Nian spent the entire morning in the laboratory.
It had been a long time since she worked on her experiments. A little rusty at first, she quickly adapted and got back on track.
Qiao Nian"s experiments became faster and faster.
There were 15 experiments on Ji Qing"s USB drive in total.
She had already completed 14 experiments with Xu Yi.
There was only one experiment left. Qiao Nian did not ask for Xu Yi"s help this time because she had thoroughly studied this experiment.
If she had deducted correctly, this experiment was the key to Ji Qing"s a.s.sa.s.sination!
Xu Yi would be in danger if he partic.i.p.ated in this experiment.
She had never liked to trouble others!
Especially for such matters.
Qiao Nian was already used to facing danger alone. This time, she also did not intend to implicate unrelated people.
She did not make much progress in the morning. She had only roughly constructed the outline of the reactor. There were still many details that needed time to be perfected.
She took a photo of the reactor model with her cell phone and saved it. Then, she noticed the WeChat symbol in the top-left corner of the screen.
Qiao Nian opened her WeChat and sure enough, a new message from Ye w.a.n.gchuan was waiting for her.
Y: [Are you awake?]
Qiao Nian raised her eyebrows and leaned against the experiment table. One leg was on the ground, and the other was in midair. She sat sloppily and focused on the message.
