The Glamorous Comeback of the Ousted Heiress novel Chapter 864

Chapter 864: 337 plus one

Assistant Wang finished speaking and peered through the door crack at Bai Lian inside.

Vice Dean of the Physics Department at Jiang University.

This type of esteemed professor, Assistant Wang had only heard about from the Gao Family members, as well as from Ren Wanxuan previously.

At its peak, the Mu Family was able to invite one or two academicians to preside over their affairs.

Now, they were hardly able to invite Professor Yin; who knew that instead of Professor Yin, they ended up inviting Zhou Wenqing.

Having followed Mu Yining for seven years, Assistant Wang only understood the company’s matters and was unfamiliar with the three research institutes.

But even he,

could sense Zhou Wenqing’s oppressiveness through the Qian Du Qian Ke platform.

He felt a bit dizzy, having started at the grassroots level of the Mu Family’s sea water engineering project; he always had a sense of unreliability, and now...

he was very hopeful.

Mu Yining calmed down and returned the cell phone to Assistant Wang.

Into the office.

In the office, Ji Shaojun’s secretary poured a cup of tea for Bai Lian, and the office no longer had the previous urgency and tension.

Bai Lian stood in front of the office’s floor-to-ceiling window, casually picked up the cup of tea, tilted her head to thank the secretary, and watched the vehicles coming and going below with her dark pupils.

"Why isn’t Miss Chen with you today?" Ji Shaojun suddenly remembered Chen Beixuan.

Lately, wherever Bai Lian was, Chen Beixuan would follow her.

But today she was nowhere to be seen.

Bai Lian shook her head.

Nevertheless, it was just as well that Chen Beixuan wasn’t here.

Meanwhile,

At the Jiang Family.

Opposite the massive gate stood a well-equipped medical research institute.

At that moment below the institute, a crowd of men in black stood guard.

Jiang Xijue, Ming Dongheng, and Chen Beixuan gathered outside the top-floor intensive care room, only able to look through the glass at the person lying on the bed.

The elevator door opened.

Gao Shu didn’t wait for the elevator and hastily climbed the stairs to the fifth floor.

Dressed in a black dress with a colorful scarf fluttering at her neck and high heels on, she stood breathlessly in front of Director Ma and looked up, "Director Ma, what’s his situation?"

Information about Jiang Fulai had always been blocked; the moment he arrived in the capital, the Chen Family had notified Gao Shu.

"Just like when he was eight," Director Ma took the report handed over by a doctor and looked up, speaking seriously, "No external injuries, indicators normal, but he’s fallen into a coma."

Gao Shu took a step back.

Falling into a daze, she didn’t dare to think back to what happened when Jiang Fulai was eight.

Rebirth from a desperate situation.

Back then, Gao Shu had also sought many specialists for him, and it wasn’t until a week later after treatment by the old traditional doctor of the Luo Family that he regained consciousness.

Afterward, twice a year, two medical research institutes would check Jiang Fulai’s blood for problems, but they never found any.

The Luo Family didn’t provide any answers either.

Everyone, including Gao Shu, was relieved, afraid that he would lapse into a coma again; fortunately, it never happened after that.

"We need to keep this a secret," Gao Shu took a deep breath, "we can’t let others find out."

Otherwise, the Jiang Family would be torn apart overnight.

"Also," Gao Shu remembered something else, she turned her head to look at Ming Dongheng, "the situation is tense right now, Alian, you need to go there, be careful not to reveal any information; the Mu Family is also at a critical moment, we can’t distract her."

No one knew whose hand was behind the matter with Jiang Fulai and Ma Institute.

There must be a group of people aware of Jiang Fulai’s condition, and they wouldn’t fail to find Bai Lian; her safety during this time was of utmost importance.

"Let Xiaoming stay here on guard," Chen Beixuan, well aware of Ming Dongheng’s superior abilities, narrowed her eyes, "Ms. Bai has always been under my protection; we can’t change that."

Bai Lian wasn’t foolish; the moment Ming Dongheng showed up, she should’ve known that Jiang Fulai had returned to the capital.

Now, given the matter involved the circle, they couldn’t let Bai Lian and her group of students get involved.

Gao Shu stared through the glass window.

"When is the Luo Family coming?" Gao Shu recalled something and asked Director Ma again.

The Luo Family, a leading name in traditional Chinese medicine, was now subtly being replaced by Xuan Kang.

However, with over 300 years of heritage, Gao Shu had heard about the Luo Family’s acupuncture techniques.

Director Ma slightly turned his head, "They have replied, but they have a condition."

"What is it?"

Director Ma: "They want to acquire Xuan Kang."

They continued their conversation at the door.

Downstairs,

Xu Nanjing also hurried over.

He walked through the heavily guarded yard and at the first-floor main entrance, he saw an elderly man.

He stopped, respectfully greeted, "Butler Jiang."

The butler, with his back to Xu Nanjing, turned around upon hearing him, "Young Master Xu."

Butler Jiang stayed with the Jiang Family and rarely came out, even Xu Nanjing rarely saw him.

"How is Brother Jiang?" he inquired.

"The same as before," the butler pondered for a moment and shook his head.
