Chapter 210 Two people??
Chapter 210 Two people??
Ji Ran was silent for a moment, then nodded. "Then... be careful."
Zeng Yichen was somewhat surprised that she would care about him, then smiled helplessly and nodded.
It seems that after she stopped having those unrealistic fantasies, she became kinder to herself.
Having said that, Ji Ran immediately wanted to go to the laboratory to extract the DNA from the ring to prevent any further accidents.
She pulled Qi Mu toward the laboratory building.
As we approached the building entrance,
"that……"
Zeng Yichen suddenly came over and called out to them.
The two turned around, only to see Zeng Yichen suddenly bow 90 degrees to Qi Mu.
"sorry."
Ji Ran and Qi Mu were both taken aback and couldn't help but exchange a glance.
After Zeng Yichen stood up straight again, he looked at Qi Mu with great sincerity, his eyes full of guilt, but his aura was open and honest.
Although he didn't know who the other party was, he was certain that they had a great connection with Commander Qi.
Even though his apology was insignificant, his heart compelled him to do so.
Qi Mu's expression remained calm and composed, but when he looked at Zeng Yichen, the hostility in his eyes had unconsciously dissipated considerably.
The next second, a voice completely shattered the silence.
"Yichen?"
Zeng Yichen was immediately jolted, and the hairs on his body stood on end.
Ji Ran's internal alarm bells rang loudly, and he subconsciously pulled Qi Mu behind him.
Qi Mu, who had already sensed the change in the magnetic field, showed no emotional fluctuation. He simply turned his gaze slowly to Zeng Nian, who was walking towards them.
"Dad...why are you here?"
Zeng Yichen took the initiative to speak, and leaned closer to Ji Ran, wanting to play the role of Ji Ran's boyfriend.
At the same time, she tried to shield Qi Mu, and her mind started racing.
He was troubled about how to explain to Zeng Nian why this man, who looked just like Commander Qi, was so intimate with his girlfriend.
To his surprise, Zeng Nian didn't even glance in the man's direction.
"It's because the leader's granddaughter has returned to China and wants to join the biology department at Peking University, so he asked me to come and smooth things over."
Zeng Nian answered with a kind and gentle expression, showing no signs of being a twisted demon.
After answering, he shifted his gaze to Ji Ran.
"You're here to see Professor Ji again? Don't delay Professor Ji's work."
A barely perceptible killing intent flashed in his eyes.
Upon sensing this murderous intent, Qi Mu's aura immediately darkened, and his pupils began to turn blood-red.
Zeng Nian and Zeng Yichen both inexplicably felt that the air had suddenly become much colder, and Zeng Yichen just felt a little strange.
But Zeng Nian's face stiffened, and a hint of fear inexplicably appeared on his face, but he didn't think too much about it.
“It’s just a meeting; I won’t interfere with her work,” Zeng Yichen replied.
Zeng Nian smiled and didn't respond to that question, instead shifting the topic to yesterday's press conference.
"I attended Professor Ji's press conference yesterday. He truly lives up to his reputation as a renowned genius at Peking University. He is absolutely fantastic."
Zeng Nian stared straight at Ji Ran, praising him as if in genuine sincerity.
Ji Ran smiled slightly, "Thank you."
There was no smile in his eyes.
Zeng Yichen glanced nervously at Ji Ran, admiring her composure immensely.
She remained calm and fearless in the face of someone who wanted to kill her.
However, Zeng Nian hasn't asked that man a single question yet...
But then,
"However..." Zeng Nian's tone became doubtful:
"In Professor Ji's research report, the experimental subject... was it a real person?"
Ji Ran's eyes widened with amusement. "Why do you ask that?"
Zeng Yichen was even more confused.
Isn't it standing right in front of you? Why ask why it's real? It's like you're sick in the head.
But Ji Ran didn't expose him; instead, he asked a question in return.
Zeng Nian was taken aback, and a hint of ruthlessness crept into his smiling face.
"Of course, it's because I've never seen such a 'perfect' person."
The word "perfect" was emphasized quite heavily, whether intentionally or subconsciously.
However, one could detect a hint of resentment and bitterness in his voice.
"Really? Then you'll see me once my experiment is successful."
Ji Ran's smile spread to her eyes.
Zeng Nian swayed slightly, his smile gradually stiffening: "Okay."
Zeng Yichen was completely puzzled, and glanced at Qi Mu behind Ji Ran again.
What are they talking about?
Isn't the person standing right here?
Ji Ran turned to look at Zeng Yichen, her tone softening slightly, "I'm going to work now."
Zeng Yichen came to his senses, still a little confused as to why Ji Ran would greet him before going to work. But he immediately remembered that in front of Zeng Nian, they were boyfriend and girlfriend.
"Okay," he replied.
"See you this weekend, Professor Ji." Zeng Nian also took the opportunity to say goodbye to Ji Ran.
Ji Ran nodded with a hint of amusement, without replying with a single word.
Zeng Yichen watched as Ji Ran and that man turned around together and walked away side by side.
Suddenly, another question came to his mind.
Ji Ran actually pretended to be the girlfriend of the man she liked...
But if Ji Ran is pretending to be her boyfriend, wouldn't walking side-by-side with that man give them away?
But the strangest thing was that Zeng Nian didn't ask about that man at all during the whole process.
No, he did ask.
But the question was about what happened at yesterday's press conference.
And the questions he asked were completely random...
Oh no, no, my brain is completely blank.
"And you? Are you going back to the barracks now?" Zeng Nian asked again at this moment.
"Huh?" Zeng Yichen turned his head to look at him.
"Why are you so absent-minded? Can't you leave him?" Zeng Nian teased.
"Ah...yes...yes," Zeng Yichen admitted, going along with the conversation.
Zeng Nian smiled like a loving father and said, "You little rascal, you've forgotten your father now that you have a wife."
Zeng Yichen scratched his head, feigning ignorance: "Hehe, I can't forget~"
"Did you two just go out to eat? If not, why don't you go eat with your dad? I heard the steamed buns at Peking University are pretty good."
Zeng Nian proposed it.
Zeng Yichen was taken aback, feeling that something was off about the question, but he still answered aloud:
"Okay."
So the father and son walked towards the cafeteria.
“Oh, right,” Zeng Nian suddenly remembered something else: “Why did you bow to Professor Ji just now?”
"Oh...that...because I..." Upon hearing the word "bow," Zeng Yichen immediately felt a little guilty, afraid that Zeng Nian would continue to question him about the reason, and wanted to quickly make up an excuse to skip the topic.
and many more! !
Zeng Yichen suddenly stopped in his tracks. "Should I...bow to Ji Ran?"
“Yes.” Zeng Nian saw Zeng Yichen stop and turned to look at him, saying:
"I saw it from a long way off, just the two of you. What were you doing if not bowing to her? What new kind of fun is this?"
Zeng Yichen felt as if he had been struck by lightning, his scalp tingling.
Two...two people?
What's the meaning? ?
There were clearly three of them standing there, so why did Zeng Nian say it was just the two of them?
