Ji Ziyin had come prepared. Of course, she wanted to leave a good impression on him, so she politely refused. “Elder Yu, please sit. I’ll just stand.”
Yu Qingliu hadn’t expected her to be so calm and composed even after he had left her hanging for an hour. Yet, she was still trying to express her goodwill to him. “Are you the junior from the Ji family who sent me the email?”
Ji Ziyin lowered her head, neither servile nor overbearing. “Yes. I’m very sorry to disturb Elder Yu.’
Yu Qingliu sized her up again. He unhurriedly picked up the water on the table and asked, “Why do you have my email?”
Ji Ziyin unhurriedly told him what she had prepared beforehand. “My teacher once met you. He gave me your email.”
“Is your teacher Gu Hengbo?” Without changing his expression, Yu Qingliu lowered his head and took a sip of water. Then, he put the cup back down and asked her.
Ji Ziyin was clearly nervous. “Yes.”
“Gu Hengbo’s reputation in the independent continent has been ruined, but
you’re still willing to associate with him.” These words were clearly a tease and a test.
Ji Ziyin looked up and said with a serious expression, “A teacher for a day is a father for life. He treats me very well.”
Yu Qingliu glanced at her again. He didn’t reveal the same high opinion Ji Ziyin had of him. Instead, he said nonchalantly, “Of course, he treats you very well. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have monopolized the research results of his team members for you.”
Ji Ziyin’s expression changed slightly. She suddenly looked at him.
Yu Qingliu was also looking at her.
Their gazes met. It was as if he saw through her. She quickly lowered her head like a fleeing dog.
“l didn’t know what Teacher did for me. I thought he gave me his research results.’
“Heh, stop bluffing.” Yu Qingliu did not give her any face. “l don’t care about what you’re saying! I’ll just ask you a question. Answer me honestly.”
Ji Ziyin’s heart sank, but when she heard him say that he didn’t care about the incident from before, she felt slightly relieved. She looked up and said, “Elder Yu, please speak.”
Yu Qingliu did not beat around the bush. “Are the contents of the email yours?”
Millions of thoughts ran through Ji Ziyin’s mind, but in just a short moment, she made a decision. Under Yu Qingliu’s gaze, she nodded slowly and firmly said, “Yes, they belong to me.”
Yu Qingliu had suspected her in the beginning. Seeing that she dared to look him in the eye and admit that they belonged to her, he believed her 30%.
Not long ago, he received an unfamiliar email. Ji Ziyin wrote to him about many projects related to weapon manufacturing.
The reclusive families had always valued the development and research of high-tech weapons, but all these years, the First Research Institute had not developed anything useful.
Ji Ziyin’s appearance was undoubtedly an excellent opportunity for him.
The reclusive family was a group of more than a hundred forces. The Yu family had spent three generations of effort just to barely squeeze into this circle.
They enjoyed endless glory outside, but among the reclusive families, they were only one of the lowest-ranking families. Therefore, the descendants needed to play a “role” to ensure that their family would not be kicked out of the ranks of reclusive families.
Martin’s failure this time made the higher-ups very angry.
If he could seize the opportunity to prove himself, even if he couldn’t let the Yu family take another step forward… it would be good if he could replace Martin as the new external hub!
He decided that Ji Ziyin would help him open the path to take the Yu family further..
