2316 Ji Ziyin Lost
“Is there… anything special about her?” Martin could not help but ask curiously.
Feng Yu retracted his gaze. Then, he looked at Martin and slowly said, “She’s Ji Qing’s daughter.”
Martin instantly revealed a stunned expression. It could be seen how shocking Feng Yu’s short sentence was!
“The Ji family never mentioned this…” Martin blurted out.
Feng Yu nodded, not surprised. “He probably doesn’t want those people to notice Qiao Nian. It’s just that I’m different from him. There’s no point in hiding. I want to take a gamble!”
Martin’s expression was one of disbelief, but he was smart enough not to ask Feng Yu what he wanted to do. After all, that was a reclusive family that had not fallen for a hundred years.

There was no more doubt about the winner of the selection.
Ji Ziyin’s second experiment failed.
Her back and forehead were already covered in a cold sweat.
Not caring about her disheveled appearance, she looked at the time and tidied up the utensils on the experiment table, as if she wanted to try again.
Her mind raced as she tried her best to recall the contents of Ji Qing’s notebook, trying to remember something useful.
However, no matter how Ji Ziyin thought about it, Ji Qing’s notebook did not seem to have any such content. She did not even mention it.
Ji Ziyin’s hands began to tremble.
She almost lost her grip on the test tube. The sweat on her forehead gathered into a stream and suddenly trailed down.
Now what?
She could not lose.
Martin was here, too.
She had to show off to the reclusive family. Otherwise, how could she curry favor with them and trample Feng Yu, Qiao Nian, and the others under her feet…
The more Ji Ziyin thought about it, the more nervous she became, and her hands trembled even more.
Her heart beat so fast that it was about to rush out of her throat.
She wanted to scream, but she could not do that. She forced herself to calm down, but she could not even complete the simple act of placing the test tube on the rack.
Her hands were shaking too much.
She was trembling too much.
She could not continue.
Just as Ji Ziyin anxiously forced herself to start the third experiment, a voice came from the small loudspeaker in every laboratory.
“Someone completed it.”
Ji Ziyin’s hand trembled, and the test tube slipped from her hand and fell to the ground, shattering into pieces.
Glass shards flew everywhere. A shard accidentally scratched the back of her hand, and blood immediately welled on her fair skin.
Ji Ziyin felt a sharp pain on the back of her hand before she could take a look.
Then, she heard Shi Fu’s voice on the loudspeaker.
“The person who completed it is in Laboratory 9, Qiao Nian.”
Ji Ziyin’s ears buzzed, and her mind instantly went blank. She completely forgot about her injured hand as she became dazed.
It was as if her bold words to Gu Hengbo in the parking lot three hours ago were just a dream and a complete joke!
She said that this time, she wanted everyone to see who was the true genius of the independent continent. She wanted to crush Qiao Nian in public and tear apart the true face of the so-called Newcomer King of the First Research Institute.
In the end, she was the one who was crushed and her dignity was torn apart!
Ji Ziyin’s shoulders trembled uncontrollably. She could not accept this outcome.
Her dream was once again shattered when it was about to come true!

In the next few days, Qiao Nian’s name was the focus of the independent continent’s attention.
Everyone once again focused on this bumpkin that they had thought had never been to the independent continent.
