Chapter 465
The One Word team’s headquarters is in the suburbs, with not much around, just trees.
Several teams had also been sent out, and training for new players was over at this point in time.
Now, indeed, there is no one.
Not even birds.
Fu Yunshen’s question was polite and restrained, not like his usual coaxing tone of voice.
It was a rare moment of seriousness.
Even Ying Zidian was momentarily confused by the question.
Fu Yunshen’s fingers slowly stroked her face and lowered his forehead to rest against hers.
Their breaths intertwined with each other, and a faint emerald fragrance fell down.
Ying Ziji could clearly feel his breath.
It was calm and gentle.
After a few seconds, Fu Yunshen asked once more, his voice smiling: “Can I?”
His voice was always good, and at this time it was even lowered, making it even more loving and soft.
Ying Ziji rubbed her ears and looked into his naturally flirtatious and affectionate peach blossom eyes, and was silent for a moment: “Can I?”
No sooner had these two words fallen than a kiss fell on her lips.
Ying Ziji’s eyelashes trembled slightly.
Fu Yunshen lowered his head slightly, one hand over her head, the other clasped her waist and continued to bring her into his arms.
His movements were strong.
But his kiss was gentle, just like the man he was.
Like snowflakes falling on his lips, flakes melting.
And little by little, they sank in, almost drowning.
All her senses were all taken up by him in this moment, unable to feel anything else but him.
“Little friend, close your eyes.” Fu Yunshen paused and couldn’t help but laugh again, his voice taking on a slightly restrained mute tone, “If you keep looking like this, I won’t be able to stand it.”
He was not a decent man.
Especially when it came to the person he liked.
It was a long time before he stopped kissing, but didn’t let go of her.
The girl’s eyes became heavier with watery mist, clear and brimming with confusion.
Fu Yunshen: “Let me hold you more while you can before the long-distance relationship.”
Being able to have someone to lean against and not have to walk, Ying Ziyin did as he wished.
She leaned against his chest and yawned, “If other real long-distance lovers hear you say that, they’ll get beaten up.”
She and Wen Fengmian were doing experiments together, and half a month was enough at most.
Ling Mianxi and Nie Yi, that could see each other once a month, were considered a short time interval.
“Hmm-” Fu Yun Shen mused and smiled. “Who let my girl, who couldn’t let me suffer so much.”
“I’m leaving.” Ying Ziji poked the teacup pig’s head, “See you in half a month.”
Dudu’s eyes contained hot tears as he stretched out his little piggy hoof.
Fu Yunshen picked up the car keys, “See you off.”
The two of them got into the car.
As he started the car, Fu Yunshen glanced at his phone, lazily, and began to send out WeChat.
[There’s nothing going on lately, starting a half month long distance relationship].
I heard that you and your little girlfriend only see each other once every few months?
On the other end of the phone, Nie Yi, who again thought there was some urgent news: “……”
**
At 9pm, Ying Ziji returned to Ji Yihang’s house.
The Ji family’s family members’ houses were all a*signed uniformly by the inner courtyard.
Ji Yihang was not a key caretaker and naturally did not have an estate like Ji Yiyuan, who was allocated a two-storey villa.
The eldest son, Ji Xun, practiced outside
“Eh, Ying Shen.” Ji Li was doing a problem, when he saw the girl return, he raised his head and covered his chest with a hand, “Ah I’m dead.”
Ying Ziji’s eyes changed slightly, “What?”
She stepped forward and shook Ji Li’s shoulder with a motionless hand.
There was nothing unusual about it.
Ying Zidian wrinkled his brows.
Only after a few seconds did Ji Li say, “I… I said your face is too high… Ying Shen, don’t… don’t get so close to me, I’m going to die again.”
Ying Zigui: “……”
“No wonder all those fans in your super talk say you’re a god face.” Ji Li still couldn’t stop looking, “What lipstick number are you wearing, it looks good, tell me about it, I want to buy it too.”
Ying Ziyi paused, “I might not be able to buy it.”
Tailor-made.
Fu Yun dark colour.
“Ah.” Ji Li scratched her head and didn’t continue to ask, changing the subject, “Ying Shen, I heard from the Imperial University side that you are going to the Imperial University, is that right?”
“Hmm.” Ying Zidian sat with her on the sofa, “I don’t plan to go abroad at the moment.”
“That’s good.” Ji Li was pleased, “Which major did you apply for? We should all be in the early batch.”
“I didn’t choose a major.” Ying shook his head slightly, “The headmaster said he wouldn’t limit my major anymore, so I can study whatever I want.”
Ji Li: “……”
Is this the difference between Ying Shen and her, the school bully?
Ji Li was a bit sad.
Ying Zigui nodded slightly: “What are you studying?”
“I’m enrolled in the experimental biology cla*s.” Ji Li said, “Our families all study this, and I’m also interested, so I can help dad when the time comes.”
Members of the Ji family had privileges over at the Imperial University.
They chose all their own cla*ses, and their leave slips could be granted at will.
“Ying Shen, sign me up for that experiment of yours as well.” Ji Li spoke again, “I can help.”
Ying Zigui didn’t refuse, “Okay.”
**
The news that Wen Fengmian had taken over the experimental project also quickly reached Ji Yiyuan.
Ji Yiyuan’s brow furrowed: “Did he really take it, or is he going to work with Ying Zidian?”
Is Wen Fengmian out of his mind?
He was going to die himself, and he was dragging others with him?
“Master, could there be something fishy?” The steward was also puzzled, “Could it be that they have bought the materials?”
“Bought the materials?” Ji Yiyuan waved his hand and snorted lightly, “How can they buy things that the inner courtyard can’t even buy? Wen Fengmian has also been in the country, so it’s hard to think that he still knows the top international professors?”
“Even if they knew each other, without joining their labs and not being insiders, they wouldn’t buy the materials.”
The steward thought about it for a moment and thought it was right.
There were only a few top international professors, and the Kee family only had a relationship with Professor Manuel.
“It’s just as well they took it, they asked for it, why should I stop them? I’m happy to see Qi Cheng.” Ji Yiyuan sneered and asked again, “Where is Miss Yan?”
“Miss Yan is in the laboratory.” The steward respectfully returned, “I called her just now, she is in a very bad mood.”
Ji Yiyuan was stunned, “What’s going on?”
He and Yan Ruoxue were also only in a cooperative relationship.
Although Yan Ruoxue was not a member of the Ji family itself, her status was very high.
Especially a while ago, Yan Ruoxue had entered Manuel’s lab and became a researcher.
Although the core experiments were not yet accessible, at least there was a name there.
No one else in the Ji family has been able to squeeze into the labs of those few top international professors.
So even Ji Yiyuan had to respect Yan Ruoxue a little bit
“Miss Yan still has an experimental project.” The steward answered, “She chose a few juniors, and Ji Li was among them, but now Ji Li is also going to participate in that experimental project of Wen Fengmian’s, and Miss Yan is very angry.”
Yan Ruoxue had a bad temper and was very eccentric, this was well known in the Ji family.
When Ji Yiyuan invited her, he had to speak nicely too.
Yan Ruoxue would not allow others to infringe on her authority, especially a junior.
“Ah Ji Li, how short-sighted, Miss Yan chose her, that’s her honour, and she still refuses?” Ji Yiyuan also remembered and shook his head, “But it’s a pity, who let her be the offspring of Ji Yihang.”
The steward smiled, “It’s still the master who has the eyesight, when the deadline set by the experimental project comes, Ji Yihang and Wen Fengmian’s family, both will be finished.”
**
At this time, the laboratory.
“Professor Yan, I’m really sorry.” Ji Li was apologetic, “My cousin she just got into the experiment, I need to bring her up. So it’s going to be a disappointment to your kindness.”
If the experiment failed, it would involve everyone in their family.
She could not stay out of it.
When Yan Ruoxue heard this, she slapped the document in her hand on the table, “Ji Li, are you serious?”
“Yes, I’m serious.” Ji Li pursed her lips, “Professor Yan, there are many people of the same generation as me, you can choose them.”
She didn’t expect Yan Ruoxue to choose her either.
So after learning the news, she immediately came over.
The two experimental projects were at the same time and just happened to clash.
If they were staggered, Ji Li would definitely participate.
To be selected by Yan Ruoxue to enter the lab was indeed a confirmation of strength.
“You should be clear that you will be able to have merit and your parents will be able to be rewarded for coming to this experiment of mine soon.” Yan Ruoxue suppressed her fire, “I’ve even reported your name, and now you’re giving me the word no?”
It was still because of an impossible experiment.
How would the inner court look at her?
Wen Fengmian was a person that Yan Ruoxue naturally knew.
But after twenty years had pa*sed, Wen Fengmian had no status at all in the Ji family.
Ji Li still didn’t retreat: “Sorry, Professor Yan, you didn’t speak to me when you gave my name.”
“Ji Li, I am all patience is limited.” Yan Ruoxue’s gaze was cold, “With one word from me, I can make Imperial Capital University return your academic file, do you believe me?”
Chapter 466
Ji Li was really not expecting her to hear such a sentence from Yan Ruoxue, and her expression changed: “Professor Yan?”
Before this, Ji Li had not had any contact with Yan Ruoxue.
It was because the Ji family had always stipulated that only after reaching adulthood could they start preparing for the various experiments.
Only a small portion of the members of the Ji family chose to go out and practice like Ji Xun did.
There was also a portion who had risen straight up from the Inner Academy because their parents had enough merit.
The last ones left were the category of Ji Li, who had to go to university while conducting experiments at the Ji family.
After many years, there was only one exception, Wen Fengmian.
There are several experimental cla*ses at the Imperial University, all of which have cooperation with the Ji family.
It just so happened that Yan Ruoxue’s research was also in the field of biochemistry, and she also had the title of professor at the Imperial University.
Although Ji Li had never come into contact with Yan Ruoxue, she had heard Ji Yihang repeatedly mention Yan Ruoxue.
Yan Ruoxue was paranoid and had an eccentric temper.
At 29 years old this year, she was one of the youngest professors at the Imperial Capital University.
There was also no one on the Ji family’s merit list who could surpa*s her at her age.
Naturally, Yan Ruoxue was very arrogant.
She wouldn’t even put Ji Yiyuan in her eyes, or else she wouldn’t have chosen Ji Li to participate in the experimental project despite the hostility between Ji Yihang and Ji Yiyuan.
“Well, seeing as you are one of the few juniors I admire more, I’ll give you an extra day to think about it.” Yan Ruoxue picked the document back up and stopped looking at Ji Li, “I don’t want to hear a single word of no, Ji Li, you need to know how dangerous your family’s situation is.”
“It’s fine if Wen Fengmian doesn’t come back, if he does, you guys are the ones wearing the guilt.”
Hearing this, Ji Li took a deep breath, “Professor Yan, I won’t say sorry either, your experimental project, not just this one, all the ones in the future, I definitely won’t participate either.”
Yan Ruoxue lifted her head, her eyes turning steeply cold: “What did you say?”
Ji Li had already pushed the door and left, leaving only a back shadow.
Yan Ruoxue’s expression turned even colder.
“Professor, don’t be angry.” On the side, the a*sistant was very good at reading people’s opinions and sent a cup of tea over, “Children, they always have to all go down the wrong path before they know who is doing it for her good.”
Yan Ruoxue snorted, “I don’t need to be angry with a little girl?”
The a*sistant paused: “Professor, speaking of Wen Fengmian, do you think he looks a bit familiar?”
Wen Fengmian had gone to the inner courtyard because he had to submit a report on his experimental project.
The a*sistant just happened to run into him and at that time, he felt that Wen Fengmian’s features were familiar to him, Bain.
He had followed Yan Ruoxue to quite a few places, the four major zaibatsu of the O Continent, and the ancient martial arts world, and had seen many people.
So for a moment, he couldn’t recall, but the impression was that there was indeed one, and it was not a low presence.
“Wen Fengmian?” Yan Ruoxue looked cold, “Why should I care about him? Who does he look like and does he pose any threat to me?”
When she came to the Ji family, Wen Fengmian had already been branded as “dead” because of the failed island experiment.
His name had become a taboo, and the experiment he had conducted had been shelved and was still in the hands of the Inner House, not being granted to anyone.
Yan Ruoxue had seen the experiment, and it was indeed difficult and a long battle.
But she was confident that if it was in her hands, there would never be a big blunder like Wen Fengmian’s.
“I also heard from Mr. Ji Yi Yuan that he has a wife and daughter.” The a*sistant spoke again, “But he is also miserable, his wife and daughter have all run away with other people and don’t even come back to see him, that’s why he adopted another family’s child.”
“Don’t worry about that, I’ll go to the inner courtyard.” Yan Ruoxue didn’t care at all, she stood up, “If Ji Li doesn’t come over tomorrow, you give me the word, I’ll call the Imperial University.”
The a*sistant nodded, “Understood.”
Yan Ruoxue stepped on her high heels, picked up the papers she had just sorted and left.
The a*sistant stayed in the lab and helped her look after the instruments.
He thought carefully about it.
The current Wen Fengmian was already wasted, and was simply not enough to be feared.
**
The other side.
Imperial Capital University.
“Student Ying, I really didn’t expect that you would actually go to the Ji family.” Zuo Li was obviously well aware of the Ji family, “It’s incredible, Mr. Wen would be a member of the Ji family, no wonder he knows about the death poison mist.”
The research strength of the Ji family could be said to be among the top few in the entire Asia Pacific region.
Some of the experimental projects of the Imperial University were also conducted together with the Ji family.
“Professor Zuo, I heard from Teng Yun Meng and the others.” Ying Ziyi nodded slightly, “There is some death poison mist kept here at the Imperial Capital University, can you take me to have a look?”
“You want to see it?” Zuo Li was instantly wary, “No, it’ll kill you, those professors in the biochemistry department have to recuperate for at least a few months before they can go there every time.”
It was hard to imagine that this kind of poisonous mist, after twenty years, was still seriously harmful to the human body.
“I have it in mind.” Ying nodded, “I want to study its ingredients, right here in the lab, to help you.”
There were so many people looking for her that she had temporarily broken off contact with Norton University.
Most importantly, after Norton left Norton University, those professors in the alchemy department were too far behind Norton’s alchemy level.
The origins of alchemy were very early, before her last visit to Earth.
But offhand, there was no trace of it.
She needed to do some research on her own.
Zuo Li hesitated for a moment, “It’s not a no, it’s just that I’m afraid something will happen to you, alas, it can, and the Biology Department is robbing you anyway.”
He called the biology department over.
“Student Ying?” When the professor in the biology department answered the phone, his eyes lit up and his legs became nimble, he jumped up all of a sudden, “Good, good, I’ll report it now and get the results out as soon as possible.”
The headmaster also said at that time that they would meet Ying Zigei’s requests as much as possible.
But the professor from the biology department didn’t think that Ying Zidian was still interested in their faculty.
So he spoke again: “Old Zuo, thank you, thank you, thank you so much, all of us in the biology department thank you.”
Zuo Li: “……”
It was obviously a treasure student that he had found, but it had suddenly become known in universities all over the world.
This heart of his really hurts.
Hair growth shampoo couldn’t comfort him anymore.
**
At night, Ji Yihang’s house.
It’s been a day, and Ji Li is still very disheveled, her whole body sprawled out on the sofa, bereft.
She loved the Imperial University and her wish since childhood was to research a lot of things and contribute to human society.
Mrs. Ji stroked her head and sighed heavily.
“Mom, or I won’t go to school.” Ji Li pursed her lips, “Or I’ll go to a foreign university?”
It was now July, and the college entrance examination file delivery had all ended.
The early batch would come down in a few days.
Yan Ruoxue was one of the heads of the experimental biology cla*s, so if she said that, it couldn’t be nothing.
Yan Ruoxue could indeed have her academic records returned.
If she wanted to go to a foreign university, she would have to wait until next year.
“This Yan Ruoxue!” Hearing this, Mrs. Ji became even more angry, “She really is becoming more and more lawless, and I don’t know how you came to be valued by her, who cares?”
But it couldn’t be helped, that was the iron rule in the Ji family.
The more meritorious the person was, the higher their status would be, and the Ancient Martial World’s present family would value them more.
Yan Ruoxue had always been paranoid, and she would take action against anyone who made a half-hearted mistake in her experimental project.
The reason why Yan Ruoxue is still valued by the Ji family is because she is able to practise ancient martial arts.
Only after all these years, Yan Ruoxue had only just gathered her internal energy and was not yet very good at using it, not even the lowest level of martial arts apprentice.
But that was still far more than an ordinary person.
Madame Ji would also prefer that Ji Li did not have any involvement with Yan Ruoxue.
In case she angered Yan Ruoxue that day, wouldn’t Ji Li be beaten up?
“Don’t talk to your father and your cousin and the others yet.” Madam Ji sighed, “I’ll ask your grandfather to see if you can be transferred to a normal cla*s in the biology department, or if you can go to the chemistry department.”
But the hope was very slim.
Madame Ji’s father had retired from his position as Vice Dean, with very little real power in his hands and no position over at Imperial University.
Yan Ruoxue was in the ascendancy, and the dean of the Inner Academy thought highly of her.
It was impossible for the Inner Academy to clash with Yan Ruoxue for Ji Li’s sake.
Ji Li nodded her head, still having a hard time in her heart.
The door handle was turned at that moment, and someone pushed the door in.
Immediately, Ji Li wiped her tears away and changed her expression: “Ying Shen, the meal is ready, just waiting for you to come back.”
Mrs. Ji also stood up, “Yaoyao, sit and wait for a while, your father and your second uncle are still outside.”
“Sorry, second aunt, didn’t mean to hear.” Ying Ziji’s hand was still holding on the door as she slowly looked up, “Xiao Li you said that there was a Yan Ruoxue who wanted to withdraw your school records from Imperial University?”
