Chapter 10 His Ex-wife Stunned Him
After lunch, at half past one, Li Zhinan took Cheng Yan away from the old villa.
After they left, Cheng Qian handed Xiao Ye to Jiang Meng: "Mom, I have something to do this afternoon, Xiao Ye, you take care of him."
Jiang Meng held his fat grandson in his arms, his face full of joy: "Don't worry, just go and do what you need."
Only then did Cheng Qian drive away with peace of mind.
Medical University!
The students of the school have already had their winter vacation. Those invited today are all medical industry experts and academic masters. It is difficult for ordinary people to have the opportunity to attend such a solemn and rigorous meeting.
Cheng Qian parked the car and walked towards the building.
As soon as I turned a corner, I saw a group of people gathered under the big tree at the door and talking.
Cheng Qian looked up and saw some very prestigious academic experts surrounding a father and daughter.
The most outstanding body among them belonged to Li Zhinan, the leader of the Li family.
He was wearing a business suit, tall and handsome, with a noble temperament. He was like a god, standing beside Cheng Yan, protecting her.
Cheng Yan talked to people confidently, and her elegance and charm coexisted in her conversation and laughter.
When Cheng Qian saw this scene, she felt depressed and walked around them and entered the main venue.
There was also a group of people surrounding Ji Nan. When he saw Cheng Qian coming, Ji Nan quickly called her over.
The focus was on introducing Cheng Qian to those people she knew.
"So you're the daughter of Dr. Cheng and Dr. Ye. Nice to meet you."
"With such outstanding parents, their daughter is bound to be even better than them."
"I heard that Miss Cheng's laboratory has received generous support from the Li Group. She is truly young and promising."
Cheng Qian responded with a smile, with a calm and unhurried temperament, just like a solitary orchid in a valley, independent and beautiful.
As the meeting was about to begin, Cheng Qian arranged for her to sit next to Ji Nan in the first row.
When Li Zhinan and the Cheng family father and daughter entered the venue, they saw Cheng Qian at first sight.
The faces of Cheng's father and daughter froze instantly. They couldn't believe it. Why was Cheng Qian here?
Cheng Yan took a peek at Li Zhinan's expression, and sure enough, he was also attracted by it.
Presumably, she was given a seat in the first row because of the success her parents had achieved, which was why she was given this special arrangement.
Cheng Yan curled her lips in disdain, followed her father gracefully, and sat in the first row.
The person sitting next to Cheng Qian is Li Zhinan.
Sitting on the other side of Li Zhinan was Cheng Yan.
After Li Zhinan sat down, he turned sideways to Cheng Qian and asked her in a low voice, "Why didn't you tell her you were coming?"
Cheng Qian treated him as air and pretended not to hear his questions.
Ji Nan received a call at this time, and after a while, Ji Yichen's handsome figure appeared at the entrance.
Ji Nan waved his hand and Ji Yichen strode over.
As one of the representatives of the investment companies, Ji Yichen was also seated in the first row.
When Ji Yichen walked over, he nodded to Li Zhinan, and Cheng Yan also winked at him with a smile.
Ji Yichen was about to sit down when Ji Nan suddenly stood up and made room for him: "You and Xiao Qian should sit together. You will represent the company to give a speech later."
Ji Yichen delivered a speech as an investor, while Cheng Qian spoke on behalf of the research institute.
Li Zhinan glanced at Ji Yichen sideways and pursed his thin lips.
A hint of surprise also flashed across Cheng Yan's beautiful eyes.
Ji Yichen was a foreign company introduced by investment promotion, and he had just returned to China less than a month ago.
How did he know Cheng Qian?
Cheng Yan immediately looked at the middle-aged man next to Ji Yichen. At this moment, Cheng Zhifei said to her, "That's Ji Nan, the top research doctor in my eldest brother's laboratory."
Cheng Yan was shocked. She had always wanted to visit Dr. Deji since she was abroad. She didn't expect that he had returned to China, and he was also a core member of Cheng Qian's parents' team.
Cheng Yan sneered in her heart. This explained why Cheng Qian had the opportunity to sit in the first row.
Moreover, Ji Yichen and Ji Nan have the same surname, so they are most likely father and son.
Ji Nan introduced his son to Cheng Qian, which also makes sense why Ji Yichen was sitting with Cheng Qian.
This exchange meeting is organized by the government. Participants are representatives from medical research institutions and major hospitals, as well as heads of large companies that are interested in investing in research. Domestic medicine is in a period of stagnation. In order to promote scientific research and bring new hope to mankind, this exchange meeting will have several important topics.
Among them, several major domestic scientific research institutions, led by Chengshi Biology, took the stage one by one to deliver academic speeches.
Cheng Yan stood on the stage on behalf of Cheng's Biology, wearing a light-colored and dignified suit that showed off her perfect curves. Her long hair was tied up high behind her head. Her luxurious temperament and professional academic skills made her radiant on the stage and won applause from the audience.
Cheng Yan bent down, expressed her gratitude in many ways, and looked at Li Zhinan in the front row with gentle eyes. Her heart was pounding. Just now on the stage, she was stared at by his eyes. She felt that at this moment, she was embraced by love and welcomed her whole world.
Cheng Yan looked at Cheng Qian's expressionless face again and sneered in her heart.
So what if I have excellent parents? I am still not as good as others in academics.
The research laboratory that the Li family invested 300 million in has achieved nothing in her leadership. It’s time for Cheng Qian to reflect on herself.
Cheng Yan walked back to her seat with confident and graceful steps. Next, Cheng Zhifei gave a speech on behalf of the biological company's boss. Cheng Zhifei had great ambitions and spoke freely on the stage, painting a grand blueprint. Everyone present was infected by his ambition and won a wave of applause.
The second person to be invited to the stage was the Li Group, which had been attracted to return to China through investment promotion. As the company's executive president, Ji Yichen stepped onto the high podium with steady steps.
Cheng Qian was watching from the stage. Ji Yichen was indeed Uncle Ji's son. He had the demeanor of a great general. His words and actions were calm and confident, and his words were powerful. He returned to China with nearly 50 billion yuan in funds for development, which caused quite a stir.
Ji Nan turned his head and whispered to Cheng Qian, "Xiao Qian, it's your turn next. Don't be nervous."
Cheng Qian nodded with a smile: "Uncle Ji, I won't be nervous."
"As long as you can roughly tell me the content of the information I gave you, you will pass." Ji Nan was still worried that Cheng Qian was too young and could not keep her composure, and would speak incoherently in front of so many experts and scholars.
Cheng Qian smiled and nodded: "Okay, Uncle Ji, I have read your manuscript carefully."
After Ji Yichen finished his speech, he walked off the stage and his eyes fell on Cheng Qian.
In a while, this young woman will give a speech on stage on behalf of her father's laboratory. I am really worried that she will not be able to control the situation and cause a joke.
It’s not that Ji Yichen underestimated Cheng Qian, it’s just that Cheng Qian’s face looked too young, and her facial features were bright and delicate. Her looks were too gorgeous, which always overshadowed her other advantages and made people only focus on her appearance.
The host has started reading the words, mentioning Cheng Qian's name and the research institute she represents.
"Yichen, give a copy of the speech to Xiaoqian." When Ji Nan saw Cheng Qian was about to get up, he reminded his son urgently.
Ji Yichen immediately wanted to look for the briefcase he brought with him, but found that he had left the car in such a hurry that he had forgotten to bring it with him.
Ji Yichen's handsome face turned pale. He endured the risk of being criticized and looked at his father: "Dad, I forgot to take it."
Hearing this, Cheng Qian smiled calmly and said, "Uncle Ji, that's not necessary. I have prepared a manuscript myself."
After Cheng Qian finished speaking, she stood up and went on stage. She inserted a USB drive into the computer on the stage and found and opened the file as quickly as possible.
Then, Cheng Qian turned to face the audience with a smile on her face. The microphone hanging on her collar transmitted her clear and pleasant voice to every corner of the meeting.
"The theme of today's discussion is: Facing medical challenges and exploring the path forward for scientific research."
"As a vital field in protecting human health, we are constantly battling various diseases. Numerous medical challenges are like roadblocks, hindering the progress of human health..."
Cheng Qian, wearing a khaki trench coat, a high ponytail, and flat shoes, with her back straight like a pine tree, spoke with clear and penetrating pronunciation, and calmly constructed a firm understanding of the field, instantly capturing the attention of the entire audience.
The highlighter sometimes lingers on the clearly listed data, and sometimes emphasizes the key arguments.
The audience was silent.
Cheng Qian spent more than ten minutes conveying the charm and challenges of medical research to everyone. Her confident demeanor also made everyone see the courage and wisdom of women in scientific research.
Cheng Yan and her father's expressions changed in shock, and they looked at each other.
I didn’t expect that the data published by Cheng Qian today is actually related to cancer, and the theory she proposed is supported by data.
Cheng Yan's face looked extremely ugly, but then she thought about it and sneered silently.
Cheng Qian's powerful theory must not have been tested by her personally. She knows exactly what her research institute has done in the past four years.
Taking the hard work of your parents and jumping onto the stage to show off your treasure, is this also considered a form of living off your parents?
There was warm applause from the audience. Ji Nan's eyes were red with excitement. Just now, he seemed to see the elegance of his senior brothers and sisters in the past. He was really moved.
Ji Yichen was worried all the way because he forgot to bring his speech manuscript. It was not until Cheng Qian finished her speech and received recognition from everyone that he came to his senses.
It seems that his worries were unnecessary.
Li Zhinan pursed his lips. He had never participated in the investment in Cheng Qian's laboratory in the past four years, so he had no idea that she was so calm and confident on the stage. Today's performance made him shine.
Cheng Yan withdrew her gaze and inadvertently caught a glimpse of the man next to her staring at the stage without blinking. Cheng Yan was shocked.
