Her left hand was still wrapped in gauze, and the beige windbreaker wrapped around her thinner figure made her look quite decadent.
But the whole person's momentum is still there.
Ji Ziyin bit her lip and looked towards the gate of the research institute with flashing eyes. She suppressed the unwillingness and hatred in her eyes, pinched her palms, and walked in step by step.
…
Everyone from the institute is here today.
Many people heard that she would come back today to pick up something.
Many people were discussing the fact that she and Xie Xinyao were expelled from the institute.
Along the way, Ji Zinyin heard all kinds of rustling sounds floating into her ears.
"Ji Ziyin came to get her things. Tsk, who would have thought she would be expelled? I thought she was going to enter the Level 8 lab some time ago, but she was expelled in the blink of an eye. This is too tragic!"
"When Qiao Nian first entered the institute, she privately pressured other newcomer groups not to accept Qiao Nian. Only the worst and most insignificant Group 10 resisted the pressure and allowed Qiao Nian to join... Not long ago, all the members of Group 10 stayed in the Level 8 laboratory, while Ji Ziyin, who had been so successful before, was kicked out of the First Institute. This is what they call "Thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west... Don't be too arrogant."
"In fact, if she hadn't been so against the 'Newcomer King' at the beginning, things wouldn't have turned out like this. The 1st group she was in at the time was the best group. If Qiao Nian had joined their 1st group instead of the 10th group, she would have been the one to enter the Level 8 laboratory. Why did she have to go through so much trouble just to get into the Level 8 laboratory..."
"Everyone says that she is a once-in-a-century genius in the Ji family. I don't think she is as good as the 'newcomer king'. If she is really as talented as they say, how could she not be able to enter the Level 8 laboratory? The dean would not be willing to give up on her."
"It's blown."
"I always feel that Ji Ziyin is not really a genius compared to Qiao Nian. The two are so far apart."
Ji Zinyin felt as if she was being stabbed all the way, and her heart was torn.
She felt like she was walking on a fire when she walked on the road, and countless humiliations drilled into her ears with every step.
She didn't want to listen, but the discussions came flooding in like a tide.
In order to maintain her remaining dignity, Ji Zinyin could only pretend not to hear anything, with a stern face, walking step by step towards the Level 5 laboratory.
Gu Hengbo was waiting for her in the office. When he heard the knock on the door, he looked up and said, "Come in."
Ji Ziyin walked into the office, looking somewhat pale and weak, and said, "Teacher, I'm here to get my things."
She didn't actually have much to take away, she mainly wanted to take the files that recorded her experiments at the institute over the years.
Gu Hengbo stood up and took out the file he had prepared long ago from the drawer and handed it to Ji Zinyin.
Ji Ziyin took the file bag silently, raised her head, and was about to speak.
Gu Hengbo said before her: "I have fought for you."
Ji Ziyin looked up at him.
Gu Hengbo's usually stern face rarely showed a trace of annoyance, but he soon returned to his usual cold and distant attitude: "The dean and his men insist on expelling you. It's useless for me to speak for you alone, because no one else is on my side."
Ji Ziyin tightened her grip on the file bag, lowered her head, and said in a low voice: "I know, thank you, teacher."
Seeing her being so 'well-behaved', Gu Hengbo felt a fire rising in his heart.
He finally found a good seedling and cultivated it carefully, but in the end, it was gone. Who would be happy
