The True Heiress Is The Real Bigshot novel Chapter 531

Chapter 531: 480 Slap in the Face, Identity Restored [1 Update]_2

There are many people internationally who are more formidable than Yan Ruoxue, and they also know how to keep a low profile.

Wen Fengmian simply smiled in response.

He had never worried about Ying Zijin’s academic problems.

She was eager to learn, and she studied seriously.

In such matters, he trusted only Ying Zijin.

The dean hesitated for a moment but still called out to the girl, "Miss Ying, how did you know that the C virus had already been discovered?"

This time Ying Zijin didn’t stop but replied, "Read more books, go to bed early, and don’t go bald."

"..."

A crushing blow.

The dean, having hit a wall with Wen Fengmian, was even more at a loss for words with Ying Zijin and could only watch as they left.

"It seems we underestimated the champion of the ISC finals," the dean sighed. "We thought this was just a theoretical knowledge competition, at most at a college student’s level, but her knowledge is indeed profound."

After all, even with so many people in the Ji Family, including professors, none knew that the C virus had been discovered long ago.

Hearing this, two vice-deans exchanged looks and both became more alert.

It seemed that Wen Fengmian was really coming back to restore his former status.

**

The three of them left the Inner Court.

Although Ji Li felt quite satisfied, she was still a bit worried, "Yan Ruoxue was able to cut off our family’s supply of experimental materials just because I didn’t go to her lab. Now that she’s been angered, she won’t start trouble again, will she?"

Ying Zijin replied indifferently, "Let her try, like playing Whack-a-Mole."

Completely not understanding, Ji Li was perplexed, "???"

Wen Fengmian coughed twice and said with a slight smile, "Your cousin means that every time she pops up, she’ll be knocked back down, until she’s defeated. The process is very delightful, and the outcome is very comfortable."

Ji Li: "..."

Ying Zijin: "..."

Although that was indeed her intention, why did it feel strange when her father explained it like that?

"Yaoyao, take a good rest now that the experiment is at a pause," Wen Fengmian nodded, "You haven’t seen Yunshen for a while, right? Go meet him, young people should get out and about more."

"Mmh," Ying Zijin paused, "I’m going to get some sleep first."

The previous day, Fu Yunshen had asked to stay over, and he indeed came.

But by the time he arrived, she had already sent Wen Fengmian and Ji Li to the guest room next to the lab, leaving her alone in the lab continuing her experiments.

So Wen Fengmian didn’t know about this yet.

In the end, she didn’t sleep; she listened to stories all night long.

Suddenly, Ji Li stopped and pointed excitedly at the large screen at the entrance, "God Ying, look, the Merit List has changed."

The Merit List displayed the top one hundred names.

Yan Ruoxue was originally ranked 49th, but after being deducted two thousand Merit Points, she fell to 64th place.

The higher up the list, the larger the gap in Merit Points.

Between the first and second place, there was a difference of a whopping fifty thousand Merit Points.

Ying Zijin looked up and glanced at it, "What’s the use of the Merit List?"

"It’s for the Main House to see," Wen Fengmian replied, his tone light, "The higher the merit value, the more the Ancient Martial World will provide, including resources from ancient martial arts and Ancient Medicine."

Some martial arts moves in ancient martial arts can be practiced without Inner Strength.

But those moves are also not shared with outsiders.

Ying Zijin pondered, "Ancient Medicine resources?"

"Ah, I know about that," Ji Li nodded, "The Main House really values biochemistry because they want to see if they can match Ancient Medicine by leveraging high technology."

Ancient Martial Families do not favor using external high tech, but it’s not that they don’t have any.

The Ling Family is an example, and so is the Ji Family.

Upon learning of this, Ji Yiyuan once again flew into a rage, slamming the table: "Damn it, to think they even managed to get past Miss Yan, they’re just lucky."

Moreover, even though Yan Ruoxue had Manuel block off Ji Yihang’s supply channel for experimental materials, Ji Yihang somehow still got his hands on them, which was absolutely inconceivable.

Ji Yiyuan was even angrier, "If that experiment of Ji Yihang ever succeeds, it will truly be bad news."

For many years, he had always wanted to drive out Ji Yihang’s faction from the Ji Family.

"Dad, I have an idea," Ji Yundong thought for a moment, "Didn’t the Main House send you two auction invitations?"

Ji Yiyuan frowned, "What about them?"

"I remember the auction list includes a medicine that can cure many diseases," Ji Yundong said, "Ji Yihang’s father-in-law, doesn’t he have an incurable disease?"

"Dad, you instruct Ji Yihang to drop out of the experiment, then you can give him the invitation. After all, we only need one invitation."

Ji Yiyuan’s expression brightened, "Not bad, Yundong, you really are clever."

Having said that, he took out an invitation and immediately went to find Ji Yihang.

**

At that moment, Ji Yihang was still conducting an experiment.

The arrival of Ji Yiyuan made him more vigilant, "Ji Yiyuan, what tricks are you trying to pull now?"

"I’m not playing tricks, I’ve brought you something. Do you know about the annual auction in the Ancient Martial World?" Ji Yiyuan shook the invitation in his hand, "There’s an item up for auction that can cure your father-in-law’s illness. How about this, you declare the experiment a failure, and I’ll give you the auction invitation, how’s that?"

"You wouldn’t want your father-in-law to die early, right? If he dies, do you really think you alone can protect your wife?"

Because of her beauty, Madam Ji had once attracted the attention of a member of the Ancient Martial World’s Main House.

But Madam Ji’s father had also made many contributions to the Ji Family, so the Main House had not yet acted, though that member had never given up.

Ji Yihang was always aware of this and never let Madam Ji go to places with few people.

In crowded places, ancient martial artists, intent on hiding their secrets, would not reveal themselves.

Ji Yihang’s eyes turned red, "Ji Yiyuan!"

"Don’t think just because your niece returned to the Ji Family and got Merit Points," Ji Yiyuan clicked his tongue, "She’s indeed quite powerful, but do you think she can give you an invitation to the Ancient Martial World auction?"
