Xu Yi didn't want to argue with her about this nonsense. He turned on the tap and rinsed the test tube before calmly saying, "Since it wasn't mentioned, it's just wordplay. Let's wait and see."
Xue Zhu's restless heart calmed down for no reason upon seeing him throwing himself into the next set of data collection.
She didn't know if Xu Yi was right. After some hesitation, she went to the cabinet and grabbed her cell phone before sending a message to Qiao Nian.
——[Are you alright?]
There was no response even after she waited for some time.
Xue Zhu couldn't sit still and found an excuse to see if the dean had returned.

In fact, Qiao Nian had been so busy these past two days that she had no time to care about the boring gossip in the First Research Institute.
Since she had decided to help the Ji family through its most difficult time, she had to take action.
Bright Gate had a certain deterrent force in the independent continent, and she could indeed ask Ye Wangchuan for help... However, what happened at the pier was an anomalous event. It was impossible to stabilize the Ji family's internal chaos by relying on this alone, and others couldn't give up on the Ji family.
For the past two days, most forces had sent people to the hospital to visit Ji Lingfeng.
Xie Yun and Nan Tianyi discussed the news of Ji Lingfeng's hospitalization and agreed to let these people visit. However, after careful consideration, they still used the excuse that Ji Lingfeng had just undergone surgery and it was not suitable for him to receive visitors to keep them out of the ward.
This approach seemed impeccable.
However, people also realized that Ji Lingfeng's health was pretty bad.
Some of them, intimidated by Qiao Nian's tough methods at the harbor, began to think again.
"So there aren't many obedient people in the Ji family now?"
"... You're right to think of it that way."
In the past two to three days, Xie Yun had watched Qiao Nian rush around dealing with the series of trivial matters caused by Ji Lingfeng's sudden hospitalization. She felt a little guilty looking at her tired expression.
"Nian Nian, why don't you go back and sleep? Anyway, these things can't be rushed. When Lingfeng wakes up..." She couldn't continue.
Not to mention that they didn't know when Ji Lingfeng would wake up, even if he woke up right now, he couldn't do anything in his current condition. It was even difficult for him to get out of bed.
Qiao Nian knew this too. She waved at Xie Yun. "I'm fine."
She just hadn't rested, and her mind was buzzing. Coincidentally, Qiao Nian remembered something Ji Nan had inadvertently mentioned.
