Chapter 781: 307 Regretful Wang Xin, The Ji Family’s Secret _3

Zhou Wenqing said he had no time and hung up the call.

Next to him, his assistant asked in confusion, “Have there been so many people inviting you to dinner recently?”

The news that Zhou Wenqing’s laboratory received 30 kilograms of palladium had spread.

And of course, the Gao Family was not kept in the dark.

Gathering so much experimental material in such a short time, it was easy for people to connect the dots to Wang Youfeng.

In the evening.

Bai Lian helped Hu Yue and the others move their laboratory.

Zhou Wenqing was promoted; his research was published ahead of schedule, and his territory naturally expanded as well.

After moving the laboratory, she went back to the apartment with Tang Ming and the others, packed her things, and prepared to leave the next day.

“Bai Lian, Ding Wenyang,” Wang Xi had been sitting on the steps at the entrance of the research center. When he saw Bai Lian and the others emerging, he stood up, his gaze fixed on them, “I’m sorry for what I did, but I had no choice at that time. Could you forgive me just this once and speak to Professor Zhou on my behalf, to let me rejoin the team?”

What the heck?

Bai Lian didn’t look at him, just lazily wrapped her scarf around her neck and went to find Jiang Fulai’s car.

Her eyes low, she exuded an air of unhurried departure.

Ning Xiao never cared much about others; after greeting Ding Wenyang, she too left.

Leaving only Ding Wenyang and a few others standing coldly on the stairs, looking down at Wang Xi, “No choice? You had ‘no choice’ but to deliberately take note of our paper? To make us look foolish in the first literature report meeting, in front of President Huang and all the faculty and students? To receive the lowest score?”

“But you were also guarding against me, weren’t you?” Wang Xi pursed his lips, “Deliberately showing me the paper you didn’t need, sending out a false lead to Gao Yuan? And thanks to that, you became famous throughout the school. That wasn’t entirely a bad thing for you, was it?”

“Deliberately?” Ding Wenyang tugged at the corner of his lip, his glance icy, “Wang Xi, we never lied to you. The paper that Sister Bai later reported was her own work; it had nothing to do with us. If it hadn’t been for her, all of us would have been tarnished with the stigma of imitating you. You’re not unaware of the impact this would have in the academic world, are you?”

In academia, plagiarism is a serious matter.

Having said that, Ding Wenyang didn’t look at him again but turned around, descended the stairs, and left.

Wang Xi remained standing in place, unable to come to his senses for a long time.

He and people like Gao Yuan always thought that Ding Wenyang and the others deliberately handed them a low-quality report. Only today did he realize…

Was that paper really sorted out by Bai Lian alone?
