Madam’s Identities Shocks the Entire City Again

2131 I’ll Find Out
He didn’t even look at Ji Ziyin. Staring in the direction Qiao Nian and Zhou Zhou left, his face darkened and he said expressionlessly, “Why did you ask her about Wednesday’s meal just now? Is something important happening on Wednesday?”

Ji Ziyin fiddled with the hair by her ear and pursed her lips, as if in a difficult position. “I… Actually, Wednesday isn’t a special day.”

Gu Hengbo looked at her.

Ji Ziyin took a deep breath and decided not to hide anything anymore. She looked straight into his eyes. “I heard that Xie Tingyun has chosen an heir and wants to acknowledge that person as her goddaughter. She chose Wednesday to hold a filiation banquet at the Intercontinental Hotel and introduce the heir she chose to everyone.”

Gu Hengbo’s expression became unnatural the moment he heard Xie Tingyun’s name.

Ji Ziyin could tell that he was very concerned about this news.

She increased her weight. “…It’s said that the dean will also be attending.”

Not everyone could invite Feng Yu.

Ji Hongyuan had once tried to invite Feng Yu to dinner on her behalf, but he was rejected on the spot.

This time, she had long confirmed that Feng Yu would attend Xie Tingyun’s filiation banquet.

All the major forces in the independent continent had their attention on the banquet.

“You said the dean is going?” Gu Hengbo’s heart was a mess after Ji Ziyin nodded. He frowned for a moment before letting go. “…You suspect that the person Xie Tingyun chose is a newcomer to the research institute this year?”

He seemed to disdain mentioning Qiao Nian’s name, using “newcomer” to replace it.

Ji Ziyin’s eyes flickered and the corners of her lips curled up. However, she controlled herself, so it was difficult for others to tell.

She nodded and said sincerely, “I heard that the person Xie Tingyun wants to acknowledge is surnamed Qiao, so I suspect it’s her.”
She immediately added, “But Teacher, I only suspect her. I don’t have evidence.”

Gu Hengbo understood why Ji Ziyin had stopped Qiao Nian and asked her where she was eating on Wednesday.

His expression was dark and his emotions couldn’t be guessed.

No matter how anxious Ji Ziyin was, she couldn’t continue at this time. She could only suppress her nervousness.

Gu Hengbo lowered his head and pondered for a moment. Then, he placed his hands behind his back and walked forward.

Ji Ziyin had no choice but to follow him. Just as she caught up to him, she heard him speak to her in a low voice.

“I’ll find out.”

Wednesday arrived in the blink of an eye.

Qiao Nian’s days in the laboratory became much better after Feng Yu went to look for her.

At least, Xie Xinyao and the others were afraid and didn’t openly target her like before.

However, they continued to do cheap tricks.

For example, when she walked past them, she could always see Xie Xinyao gathered with a few people around her. Every time she passed by, Xie Xinyao would pull a long face, as if someone owed her millions.

However, Qiao Nian didn’t care about this.

She just wanted Xie Xinyao not to look for trouble.

Nan Tianyi called early in the morning.

Qiao Nian had applied for leave from Shi Fu as she wanted to sleep in, but she was woken up by his call.

Angry, she got out of bed and reached for her cell phone in her half-asleep state. “Hello, Uncle Nan.”

The girl’s voice was obviously hoarse. Anyone could tell that she wasn’t up yet.

Nan Tianyi said in embarrassment, “Nian Nian, did I wake you up?”

“Hmm?”

Qiao Nian was a little confused and couldn’t think straight.
