2364 Ji Ziyin Fell Over with Gu Hengbo

Qin Si quickly cut a plate of fruits and brought it out. He placed it on the coffee table in front of Feng Yu and Ye Maoshan. “Elder Ye, Dean Feng, take your time chatting. I won’t disturb you. I’ll go back to my room.”

He was quite perceptive. He put down the fruit platter and slipped back to his room to play games.

At the same time.

Ji Ziyin’s situation was worlds apart.

Gu Hengbo suddenly failed. Under wave after wave of stone hammers, his reputation in the independent continent collapsed.

Gu Hengbo’s failure had brought up Bai Hui’s matter.

Bai Hui exposed Gu Hengbo for using his authority to gild Ji Ziyin. In an instant, rumors about the Ji family and Ji Ziyin spread.

Some people even suspected that Ji Ziyin was an idiot who did not have any skills and that all her research results were obtained by seizing other people’s research results…

Once this rumor spread, Ji Ziyin was like a cat on a hot tin roof every day and could not sleep at night.

She also tried to contact Bai Hui, hoping that the other party would stand up and ‘clarify’ for her.

However, Bai Hui did not answer her call. She answered it once before but hung up the moment she heard her name.

Her attitude was unyielding!

No matter how angry Ji Ziyin was, she knew that Bai Hui would not stand up to clear her name this time.

She did not think that she had made a big mistake in this matter. In her eyes, the independent continent was a world where the strong preyed on the weak.

People like Bai Hui and Xu Yi, who had no background or backing, were destined to be trampled on.

She was just an ordinary person among millions of people.

Besides, she had never asked Gu Hengbo to steal Bai Hui’s research results for her. It was all Gu Hengbo informing her that there was an ‘extra’ research result.

Of course, Ji Ziyin knew the origin of these research results. However, it was a waste not to take free pickings.

She was not the main perpetrator. Bai Hui did not have to be so dissatisfied and malicious towards her…

Ji Ziyin had been placed under house arrest during this period. She wanted to personally talk to Bai Hui to at least salvage her reputation.

However, what frustrated her was that she could not get out at all, let alone talk to Bai Hui herself.

Ji Ziyin received a call from Ji Xiao just as she was feeling extremely frustrated.

“Hey.”

“Have you seen the Patriarch?”

Ji Ziyin was baffled. “Patriarch is coming to look for me?”

Ji Xiao was silent for a long time. He seemed to be having a hard time. “You’re on your own.”

He hung up before Ji Ziyin could figure out what he meant.

She listened to the busy tone and was thinking about what was going on when there was a knock on the door. The servant jogged over to see who it was.

Ji Ziyin turned around and saw Ji Lingfeng at the door.

“Patriarch?”

“Your father removed Ji Ziyin from the younger generation.” At Ji Nan’s house, Xie Yun suddenly came to visit and said this as soon as she sat down.

Ji Nan was wearing casual clothes and was getting water for her. He was extremely surprised to hear this. “Hasn’t he always thought highly of Ji Ziyin?”

Xie Yun took the water from him and scoffed at this statement. “Heh, everyone in the family thinks that he values Ji Ziyin. I’m afraid Ji Ziyin thinks so too.”

Xie Yun elegantly took a sip of water before continuing, “All these years, Ji Ziyin has always relied on him to intimidate others outside and has never taken you seriously. In fact… who does she think she is?! I just can’t be bothered to argue with her.”
