Chapter 62 Who would look at his sister with such affectionate eyes?
Ji Yichen looked at her distressedly: "Xiao Qian, I'm sorry, I have tried my best. I know your relationship with him, but my father and the director don't know. I can't stop this."
Cheng Qian quickly adjusted her mood. It turned out that Ji Yichen had just quarreled with Uncle Ji outside because of this matter.
"Brother Yichen, thank you for thinking of me. I'm fine." Cheng Qian forced a smile.
Ji Yichen immediately lowered his voice and said, "How about you tell my dad about your relationship with him..."
"No need!" Cheng Qian shook her head: "I don't want Uncle Ji to worry about me, and I don't want to embarrass Uncle Ji. I just need to do my own thing."
When Ji Yichen heard this, the color in her eyes deepened.
Such an independent and sensible woman is really special.
Since someone is blind, let him remain blind. That's fine.
At the 9:30 board meeting, Li Zhinan showed up as expected. As the second investor, he sat next to Ji Yichen.
He Xue secretly took a photo of Li Zhinan and sent it to Cheng Yan.
Because of the information she learned, Li Zhinan is Cheng Yan's prospective boyfriend.
At this moment, she naturally wanted to send Li Zhinan's charm to her admired senior schoolmate as soon as possible.
Cheng Yan immediately replied: "He discussed this with me, I already knew about it."
He Xue was extremely envious. Li Zhinan, the head of one of the top conglomerates, discussed everything with his girlfriend, which showed how deeply they loved each other.
He Xue looked at Ji Yichen with obsessive eyes.
He looked handsome and charming today in an iron-gray suit, almost stealing her heart.
Just now I saw him and Cheng Qian talking in low voices, and they seemed to be in a good relationship.
He Xue's eyes almost popped out, knowing that Ji Nan doted on Cheng Qian like a half-daughter, and Ji Yichen also said that he treated her like a younger sister.
But who would look at his sister with such affectionate eyes?
It's just like trying to cover up something by trying to hide it.
He Xue would never believe that there could be pure friendship and sibling relationships between adults.
Li Zhinan stepped into the meeting room in a businesslike manner, not even glancing at Cheng Qian.
Cheng Qian naturally wouldn't take his presence seriously. She would speak when it was her turn and vote when it was her turn, without any personal feelings.
The lengthy meeting didn't end until half past twelve.
After the meeting, Li Zhinan suddenly said, "Mr. Ji, Cheng Qian and I have something to talk about. See you in the restaurant later."
Ji Nan was startled, looked at Cheng Qian, then looked at Li Zhinan, and nodded: "Okay! You guys chat."
Cheng Qian's heart sank, and her beautiful eyes were filled with anger as she looked at Li Zhinan.
Since they are unwilling to admit their relationship in public, why bother?
Qiao Silin glanced at Li Zhinan meaningfully, curious about why he wanted to talk to Cheng Qian alone.
Qiao Silin waited until everyone left before he slowly closed his notebook and stood up.
He said to Cheng Qian, "Will you take my car to the restaurant later?"
Cheng Qian nodded: "Okay, then please wait for me."
"Okay!" Qiao Silin said, then strode away.
There was silence in the conference room.
Cheng Qian lowered her head to pack her things and said calmly, "What's the matter? Tell me."
Li Zhinan suddenly reached out and pressed down the notebook she was about to close, staring into her eyes and said, "Are you sure about Xiaowei's condition?"
Cheng Qian looked up at him and said, "No, genetic mutation is a problem in itself."
"Is there any record of this in the notebook your parents left behind?" Li Zhinan was really anxious.
Cheng Qian was stunned for a moment: "If there is one, I will take it out and do research as soon as possible."
"Cheng Qian, have you ever thought about...what if this kind of genetic mutation appears in Xiaoye..."
"No." Cheng Qian said calmly: "I have checked him for this and he doesn't have it."
"Okay, Xiaoye doesn't have one. But Xiaoye is going to get married and have children in the future. What about his children?" Li Zhinan asked her in a deep voice.
Cheng Qian opened her lips slightly, but remained silent.
Yes, no one can predict the occurrence of a disease like gene mutation.
"You'd better speed up the research and development of a cure. I invested in the Seed Research Institute to provide Xiaowei with a better guarantee for his condition. I already have several biotechnology companies under my control, but I still don't have the confidence at all..." Li Zhinan's eyes suddenly reddened as he said this: "I don't want to lose Xiaowei, do you understand?"
Cheng Qian lowered her eyes to look at the table and nodded.
The next second, she picked up her things, put them in her bag, and prepared to leave.
"Don't mention our relationship in the research institute." Li Zhinan suddenly said when she was about to open the door.
Cheng Qian's fingers gripping the door handle froze instantly. She turned back to look at the indifferent man and said, "Don't worry, it won't happen."
Li Zhinan suddenly became irritated and slammed his fist on the table.
Cheng Qian already knew Li Zhinan's purpose of investing in the seed research institute, so she wouldn't let her imagination run wild.
Moreover, he had just expressed his concern. No one knew whether Ono was carrying the cause of the disease.
Maybe it won’t happen in this generation, but there is a chance it will happen to future generations.
Thinking of this, Cheng Qian's steps became heavy and the pressure on her shoulders suddenly doubled.
As a scientific researcher, she absolutely does not want to see her children's future be bleak.
Cheng Qian walked to the parking lot. Qiao Silin was standing under a sycamore tree talking on the phone with someone. When he saw Cheng Qian, he just gestured to her to wait.
Cheng Qian leaned against the back door of his car and waited.
Under the warm midday sun, Li Zhinan, dressed in a neat suit, walked down the mottled steps with a few assistants.
He glanced over here, then took his people into his business car, a black Mercedes-Benz business car, and drove past her.
Inside the business car, the man reached out and took out a diamond ring and slowly put it on his ring finger.
He turned around and glanced at the car window behind him, watching Cheng Qian quietly waiting for Qiao Silin.
His fingertips gently turned the diamond ring on his ring finger, his eyes dark and deep.
Cheng Qian didn't drive today. Early in the morning, she gave her car to her aunt to take Xiaoye to school.
She came here by taxi, so she could only take Qiao Silin's car to the restaurant.
Today's lunch is a business dinner, and many great medical experts will be attending.
Cheng Qian cannot leave the table.
There were three large tables in the huge private room. When Cheng Qian came over, the sumptuous lunch had already been served on the tables.
"Xiao Qian, come to this table." Ji Nan waved to her.
Cheng Qian didn't want to refuse Ji Shubu's kindness, so she sat over, and Qiao Silin happened to sit next to her.
On the way here, Qiao Silin was very curious about why Li Zhinan left Cheng Qian alone.
However, he has a rather aloof personality and is not the type of person who likes to ask about other people's privacy.
At this moment, Qiao Silin's eyes were darting around, and finally, he suddenly saw something extraordinary.
Li Zhinan wore a shining men's ring on his ring finger.
