The people of the Ji Family, Ji Weitian never paid much attention to them.
If it weren't for the Ji Family finding her and standing on the moral high ground to criticize her adoptive parents for not taking good care of her—causing reporters to constantly disturb her adoptive parents' lives—Ji Weitian wouldn't have wanted to recognize her ancestry at all.
Her adoptive parents were honest people who had diligently run a small eatery their whole lives, using their savings to nurture her. Ji Weitian couldn't bear to see them, in their later years, be forced to leave their hometown due to baseless public pressure.
To her, it was just gaining a cheap father and spending some time to deal with it, Ji Weitian didn't care.
What mattered most to her now was her own experiment at hand, as well as... the suddenly disappeared Qin Nanyu.
"Why are you suddenly concerned about Qin Nanyu? I thought you really disliked him," Leng Jian asked in surprise.
Ji Weitian was still in the laboratory. It was after work hours, and there was no one else in the lab, only her staying behind using the equipment under the guise of taking care of them. Hearing Leng Jian's words, Ji Weitian put down the robot model in her hand and glanced at the lab, which had been newly renovated due to the Qin Technology Group team's presence.
Her eyes sparkled with interest.
"I'm not concerned about Qin Nanyu. I'm just worried that this jinx coming back suddenly will affect the progress of my experiment... Ah!" Ji Weitian's words were cut off by a sudden scream.
Leng Jian was about to ask when, on the other end of the phone, Ji Weitian was stomping her feet in anger, "Sure enough, you can't badmouth someone behind their back. I just asked you to find out about Qin Nanyu, and this jinx called me right away. It startled me so much that I hung up."
She had hung up on Qin Nanyu's call, and given his penchant for pettiness, there's no way he wouldn't think she did it on purpose and take the opportunity to complain about her to the director.
"Leng Jian, I won't talk to you for now. I need to see what this bastard wants."
Ji Weitian urgently hung up, leaving Leng Jian staring blankly at the blackened phone screen, suddenly gripped by a strong sense of crisis.
Meanwhile, Ji Weitian was about to call Qin Nanyu back when her phone buzzed with a new text message.
Qin Nanyu asked her to notify all project team members to gather in the lab at eight o'clock the next morning.
Ji Weitian got serious about the matter, ensuring Qin Nanyu wouldn't use his power for revenge, and quickly disseminated the notification.
Once all the messages were sent out, and she sat back down in the lab, her phone rang again.
This time it was Su Sumei calling her.
To inform her of the welcome dinner the Ji Family had prepared for her, set for the next evening.
What was so special about tomorrow? Her two most disliked people were both showing up.
Ji Weitian immediately lost the mood for experimenting, packed up her things in the lab, and headed home early to spend time with her daughter.
-
On the other side, at the Qin Family Villa.
Qin Nanyu was in the study dealing with business matters. He had just signed a contract and, after confirming everything for the experiment had been arranged via Ji Weitian's message, was about to notify his secretary to cancel all meetings for the next day when the butler burst into the study in a hurry.
His face was full of panic, and he held a letter with shaky handwriting and drawings.
"You... Young Master Yu, something's wrong. The young master left a note, and he's run away from home!"
Qin Nanyu paused his hand on the phone, raising an eyebrow at the butler, "What did you say?"
"This is the letter the young master left. Although the handwriting is unattractive and several characters are misspelled, you can get the gist of it from the drawings."
