Zhong Yilu and Ji Lin both looked at Ye Wangchuan again and asked, "Yes, why can't I get through to you on the phone?"
Ye Wangchuan took out his cell phone under the gazes of three people, shook the screen in the direction of the girl, and said calmly, "It's out of battery."
"Ah."
Qiao Nian instantly retracted the sharpness in his eyes, not knowing whether he believed it or not. He walked up to the old man in green, his eyelids drooping.
"Are you here to see him?"
"… "
Zhong Yiliu was very reluctant to take the blame, and after a brief silence of two seconds, he said, "I came here to look for the equipment, and Master Ye helped me find the way."
"Oh." Qiao Nian didn't know if he believed it or not, but it looked like he did: "Is there something wrong with the liquid?"
"You should have read it before you had them brought back. They are conducting anti-human research. What normal things can be produced from experiments that exceed the bottom line of human conscience?"
Zhong Yilu mentioned this in a more serious tone: "They want immortality and they want to change the human gene sequence. This is crazy!"
Qiao Nian chuckled and said, "They are just a bunch of lunatics."
Seeing the two of them chatting back and forth, Ji Lin secretly breathed a sigh of relief for his own master, but at the same time he felt infinite worry.
If Mr. Wang refuses to tell Miss Qiao, doesn't that mean he has to endure it until Mr. Zhong develops a special medicine to stop the spread of the poison
He was really worried about whether Ye Wangchuan's body could bear it, so he looked in the man's direction frequently.
"...I will find a way to stop their experiment, you don't have to worry." Ji Lin didn't notice that Qiao Nian was talking to Zhong Yilu, but he noticed him out of the corner of his eye. He took in his restless expression and had deeper suspicions.
She has always been a good hunter, and is best at lying in wait until her prey lets down its guard before biting the prey's fragile neck.
Now is not a good time.
She could sense that the three people present were trying their best to conceal the truth from her. She simply went along with it, pretending not to notice, and casually brought the topic back to a safe range.

Two days later.
W Hotel.
Early in the morning, Michelle brought people to find Qiao Nian and others.
He arrived too early and only met the Zhou family and Liang Feng and others who had gotten up early.
Liang Feng regarded him as his career beacon and took the initiative to greet him. After a few pleasantries, Michelle was warmly invited to have breakfast together.
"Ah, actually I..." He was about to refuse.
Liang Feng grabbed his shoulder and advised: "Miss Qiao hasn't gotten up yet. When she gets up, she will come to the restaurant to meet us. You can go with us to wait for her and have some breakfast."
Michelle couldn't refuse his enthusiastic invitation, and when she heard Qiao Nian get up and go over, she reluctantly nodded and agreed.
"…Fine."
The two walked back to the crowd, and Michelle only greeted Liang Conglin and Old Lady Zhou, and ignored everyone else.
Since Zhou's father and mother had something to ask of him, they naturally wouldn't demand a good attitude from him. Only Dai Jiaqi, who was following behind them, quickly raised her head and looked with resentment at the foreign man who was like a fish in water in the crowd, then silently lowered her head and stared at the tip of her shoes.
Ever since Qiao Nian embarrassed her in public that day, she has been extremely depressed for the past two days and doesn't talk much when there are many people around.
Zhou's mother cared about her several times, but seeing that she said nothing, she just thought she was an adolescent girl who had lost face and was in a bad mood, and she no longer paid attention to her.
Dai Jiaqi didn't go to the law firm these past two days, so no one paid much attention to her. In the conversations, we only heard words like "Qiao Nian" and "Miss Qiao". (End of this chapter)
