Chapter 1702: Chapter 1702: Thanks to You
The wife of the councilman is actually his mother, so he is the son of the Grand Councilman. No wonder he cares so much about the councilman’s wife, and no wonder he could bring me to the villa without handing me over to the judicial authorities.
She understands that he is in a bad mood now, and she also hopes she truly knows, because at least then she could save the councilman’s wife and help relieve his worry and pain.
But she really doesn’t know.
Ji Lingkong’s eyes, as cold as ice, glanced at her coldly: "You can continue pretending, but I will find a way to make you speak!"
Jun Yiyi’s gaze dimmed, she lowered her head, feeling bitter inside.
The car sped to a place that looked like a hospital or maybe a research institute.
Upon getting out, an elite team immediately came up, and after greeting Ji Lingkong, they turned their sharp probing gaze onto Jun Yiyi. Their eyes were more like looking at a corpse about to be dissected rather than a person, to the extreme indifference.
Being watched by their strange eyes gave Jun Yiyi goosebumps. Even for someone as brave as she was, a sense of tension and unease arose. What do these people want to do to her?
She instinctively moved closer to Ji Lingkong, standing beside him, in this unfamiliar place where she knew no one and everyone seemed hostile to her.
Being close to him, she could feel a bit reassured, a sense of reliance. For some reason, she always felt he wouldn’t harm her.
Ji Lingkong was slightly stunned watching her fearful little movements, but he turned his head away, avoiding looking at the fear faintly shown in her expression.
Those people chatted with Ji Lingkong for a while, all about the councilman’s wife’s medical course. Judging from their tone, her condition was very bad, already in a sterile room, under constant monitoring to prevent various emergencies.
Jun Yiyi felt uncomfortable hearing this as well. She thought her actions that night saved the councilman’s wife, didn’t expect she would still be in such a perilous situation. Fengye Wuyin was truly meticulous; it seemed her unexpected action didn’t hinder his plan at all.
"If this bacterium still cannot be detected, I’m afraid... the councilman’s wife’s life might be at stake." The people looked gravely serious.
A pale look covered Ji Lingkong’s face, making it turn pale inch by inch, his eyes filled with anxiety and worry.
He clenched his fist, eyes sharp, tone even more firm and fierce as he spoke to those people:
"No matter what method you use, you must save my mother’s life! You very well know whether your future ends here or you rise step by step depends on your own performance!"
The researchers’ faces also turned white as they nodded vigorously.
Jun Yiyi sympathetically looked at the heavily hit expression on Ji Lingkong’s face, seeing his so tense and sorrowful eyes, the councilman’s wife is his mother, her life is hanging by a thread, he must be very worried.
"With technology so advanced now, there must be a way. Your mother will be alright." She sincerely comforted, patting his shoulder.
Ji Lingkong coldly pushed aside her comforting hand, turning back with icy eyes glaring at her, he shouted:
"I don’t need your sympathy, honestly speaking, this matter is really thanks to you. If you hadn’t gone out of your way to win my mother’s attention and invited her on stage to perform with you, that person wouldn’t have found a chance to hurt her! Do you think you can escape responsibility?"
The fierce and icy gaze from him made Jun Yiyi’s heart tremble, her lips turned pale, and she instinctively took a step back.
If before, this man was only interrogating her out of national duty, even if his attitude was cold, it was simply because of different standpoints.
