Chapter 512: 466 Wen Fengmian’s wife and daughter, she wants to return your file? [3 updates] Chapter 512: 466 Wen Fengmian’s wife and daughter, she wants to return your file? [3 updates] Ji Li truly did not expect to hear such a sentence from Yan Ruoxue, her expression changed, “Professor Yan?”
Before this, Ji Li had no contact with Yan Ruoxue whatsoever.
Because the Ji Family had always stipulated that only after reaching adulthood one could begin preparations for various experints.
Only a small portion of the Ji Family mbers chose to go out into the world to practice like Ji Xun did.
Another part consisted of those who, due to their parents’ rits, were directly promoted from the Inner Court.
The rest were like Ji Li, who had to attend university while participating in experints at the Ji Family.
For many years, Wen Fengmian was the only exception.
The several experintal classes at Imperial Capital University all collaborated with the Ji Family.
As it happened, Yan Ruoxue’s research was also in the field of biochemistry, and she also held a professorship at Imperial Capital University.
Although Ji Li had never t Yan Ruoxue, she had heard Ji Yihang ntion Yan Ruoxue many tis.
Yan Ruoxue was known to be obstinate and had a strange temper.
This year, at 29, she was one of the youngest professors at Imperial Capital University.
On the Ji Family’s rit List, no one could surpass her achievents at her age.
Naturally, Yan Ruoxue was very prideful.
She wouldn’t even regard Ji Yiyuan highly, otherwise, she wouldn’t have chosen Ji Li to participate in the experint project despite the opposition between Ji Yihang and Ji Yiyuan.
“Alright, seeing as you are one of the few young people I rather admire, I’ll give you one more day to consider,” Yan Ruoxue picked up the docunts again, not looking at Ji Li anymore, “I don’t want to hear a ‘no’, Ji Li. You should know how dangerous your family’s situation is.”
“If Wen Fengmian hadn’t returned it would be fine, but now that he’s back, you’re all wearing the mark of cri.”
Upon hearing this, Ji Li took a deep breath, “Professor Yan, I won’t say sorry. Not only will I definitely not participate in this experintal project, but I also won’t be joining any of your future ones either.”
Yan Ruoxue raised her head, her gaze suddenly turning cold, “What did you say?”
Ji Li had already pushed the door open and left, leaving only a silhouette behind.
Yan Ruoxue’s expression turned even colder.
“Professor, don’t be angry,” the assistant, very adept at reading the room, brought over a cup of tea, “Kids always need to walk the wrong path first, before they know who is looking out for their best interests.”
Yan Ruoxue scoffed coldly, “Do I look like I would get angry over a little girl?”
The assistant paused, “Professor, speaking of Wen Fengmian, don’t you think he looks sowhat familiar?”
Because he needed to submit the experintal project proposal report, Wen Fengmian had gone to the Inner Court.
The assistant had just happened to see him and thought that Wen Fengmian’s facial features looked very familiar.
He had followed Yan Ruoxue to many places; he had visited The Four Great Financial Groups of O Continent and had been to the Ancient Martial World, having seen many people.
So for the mont, he couldn’t recall, but he was sure there was a strong impression, and it was significant.
“Wen Fengmian?” Yan Ruoxue looked indifferent, “Why should I care about him? Does his resemblance to soone pose a threat to ?”
When she ca to the Ji Family, Wen Fengmian had already been branded with the “death” label following the failure of the island experint.
His na had beco a taboo, the experint he was involved in had been shelved, and to this day it remained in the hands of the Inner Court, not approved for anyone else.
Yan Ruoxue had reviewed that experint—it was indeed difficult and a long-term battle.
But she was confident that under her guidance, there would be no catastrophic blunders like the one Wen Fengmian made.
“I also heard from Mr. Ji Yiyuan that he had a wife and daughter,” the assistant spoke again, “But it’s also tragic for him, his wife and daughter ran away with soone else, never coming back to see him, that’s why he adopted a child from another family.”
“We don’t need to worry about these things. I’m going to the Inner Court,” Yan Ruoxue was completely uninterested, standing up, “If Ji Li doesn’t co tomorrow, let know, and I’ll call Imperial Capital University.”
The assistant nodded, “Understood.”
Yan Ruoxue, in her high heels, picked up the files she had just organized and left.
The assistant stayed in the laboratory, helping her watch over the equipnt.
He thought carefully and agreed.
The current Wen Fengmian was already finished, completely non-threatening.

anwhile, elsewhere.
Imperial Capital University.
“Classmate Ying, I really didn’t expect that you would go to the Ji Family,” Zuo Li was evidently aware of the Ji Family, “It’s incredible, Mr. Wen is a mber of the Ji Family, no wonder he knew about the DEATH poison fog.”
The Ji Family’s research strength could be said to be among the top few in the entire Asia-Pacific Region.
So of the experintal projects at Imperial Capital University were also conducted in collaboration with the Ji Family.
“Professor Zuo, I heard from Teng Yunng and the others,” Ying Zijin nodded slightly, “Here at Imperial Capital University, so DEATH poison fog is preserved. Could you take to see it?”
“You want to see it?” Zuo Li instantly beca alert, “No, it’s deadly, every ti those professors from the Departnt of Biochemistry visit, they need to recuperate for several months at least.”
It’s hard to imagine that this poisonous fog, after twenty years, still poses a serious threat to human health.
“I have an idea.” Ying Zijin nodded, “I want to study its composition, right here in the lab, and help you guys out.”
Too many people were seeking her, so she temporarily cut off contact with Norton University.
Most importantly, after Norton left Norton University, the professors in the Alchemy Departnt were nowhere near Norton’s level of proficiency in alchemy.
The origins of alchemy date back very far; it already existed the last ti she visited Earth.
But strangely enough, it left no traces to be found.
She needed to do so research on her own.
Zuo Li hesitated for a mont, “It’s not that it’s not okay, I’m just afraid that sothing might happen to you, sigh, alright, the Departnt of Biochemistry is also fighting for you.”
He made a call to the Departnt of Biochemistry.
“Classmate Ying?” The professor answering the call from the Departnt of Biochemistry brightened up upon hearing Ying Zijin’s na, his legs suddenly spry as he jumped with excitent, “Great, great, I will report this imdiately and expedite the results.”
The principal had also said that they would try to fulfill Ying Zijin’s requests as much as possible.
Except that the professors of the biochemistry departnt hadn’t expected Ying Zijin to still be interested in their faculty.
So he added, “Old Zuo, thank you, thank you so much, our whole Departnt of Biochemistry thanks you.”
Zuo Li: “…”
He was the one who discovered this treasure student, and yet, suddenly, universities across the globe knew about her.
His heart really pained him.
Not even hair growth shampoo could comfort him now.
**
In the evening, at Ji Yihang’s house.
After a whole day, Ji Li was still very downcast, slumping over the couch in a state of dejection.
She really liked Imperial Capital University, and it had been her dream since childhood to make many discoveries and contribute to human society.
Madam Ji stroked her head and sighed deeply.
“Mom, maybe I just won’t attend school.” Ji Li pursed her lips, “Or should I try for a university abroad?”
It was July now, and the submission of the college entrance examination docunts had already ended.
In a few days, early admission batches would be released.
Yan Ruoxue, one of the person-in-charges of the biochemistry experintal class, would not have made such remarks without good reason.
Yan Ruoxue could indeed withdraw her student file.
If Ji Li wanted to attend a university abroad, she would have to wait until next year.
“This Yan Ruoxue!” Hearing this, Madam Ji grew even angrier, “She really becos more lawless by the day, I just don’t understand why she has taken such a keen interest in you, who cares anyway?”
But there was no helping it; in the Ji Family, that was the iron rule.
The more rits one has, the higher their status, and the Main House of the Ancient Martial World would place greater importance on them.
Yan Ruoxue was always obsessive, whenever anyone made the slightest mistake in her research projects, she would not hesitate to take action.
Yan Ruoxue was still valued by the Ji Family because she could practice Ancient Martial Arts.
But after all these years, Yan Ruoxue had only just started to gather Inner Strength and hardly knew how to use it, not even qualifying as a low-level martial apprentice.
Yet, she was still far beyond ordinary people.
Madam Ji would rather that Ji Li had nothing to do with Yan Ruoxue.
If Ji Li angered Yan Ruoxue one day, wouldn’t she be beaten up?
“Don’t tell your father or your cousin just yet.” Madam Ji sighed, “I’ll ask your grandfather to see if we can transfer you to a regular class in the Departnt of Biochemistry, or perhaps you could go to the Departnt of Chemistry.”
But the prospects were very dim.
Madam Ji’s father had already stepped down from the position of vice president, and he had very little real power left, with no position at Imperial Capital University either.
Yan Ruoxue was in the lilight, and the dean of the Inner Court also held her in high regard.
The Inner Court would not conflict with Yan Ruoxue just for the sake of Ji Li.
Ji Li nodded, her heart still heavy.
At that mont, the door handle turned, and soone pushed the door open.
Ji Li quickly wiped her tears and changed her expression, “God Ying, dinner’s ready, we’ve just been waiting for you guys to co back.”
Madam Ji also stood up, “Yaoyao, please take a seat and wait for a bit, your dad and your Second Uncle are still outside.”
“Sorry, Second Aunt, I overheard unintentionally.” Ying Zijin’s hand was still on the door, and she slowly lifted her head, “Xiao Li, did you say soone nad Yan Ruoxue wants to withdraw your student file from Imperial Capital University?”
