Chapter 351: Chapter 351 Heartless Woman!
She turned around cautiously and found the group of people who had been embracing in celebration just moments ago now standing uniformly behind her.
Before she could react, they had already stepped forward, lifted Ji Weitian into the air, and tossed her up.
"Ah—"
Ji Weitian couldn’t help but yell out, realizing everyone wanted to celebrate with her and quickly urged them to put her down.
"I just got lucky; you all did the hard work. If the experiments earlier hadn’t gone so well, I wouldn’t have been much help," Ji Weitian modestly deflected all credit to the others.
Although there was an intentional understatement, what she said was also true.
Such an important experiment couldn’t be completed in a short period of time by any individual alone.
The strength of the laboratory team shouldn’t be underestimated.
Without her, they still deserved praise from others.
"Didn’t someone just say that Re Group has published new data? Do you want to organize the experimental results first and notify the Qin Technology Group?"
With one sentence, Ji Weitian successfully diverted everyone’s attention away from herself.
Seeing them all disperse to attend to their tasks, she suddenly remembered something and reached for her cellphone.
It was getting late; she might not make it back in time to take her daughter to kindergarten; she needed to inform the housekeeper.
Ji Weitian grabbed her phone, just about to call the Qin Family Villa, and noticed many missed calls.
All from Qin Nanyu.
She instinctively thought something serious had happened, worried about her daughter who was with him, and hurriedly returned the call.
The call connected, but no one answered.
Moreover, she seemed like she could hear the ringtone on Qin Nanyu’s side...
Worried about disturbing everyone at work, Ji Weitian walked outside with her phone. Just as she started to doubt whether she was hallucinating from fatigue, the ringtone, along with a familiar set of footsteps, became clearer.
Suddenly, a tall figure appeared in front of her.
Qin Nanyu held his phone, his stern face covered with a layer of gloom, and he coldly eyed the stunned Ji Weitian.
"Ah?" Ji Weitian, seeing the man who seemed to drop from the sky, got so frightened that she hiccupped.
Qin Nanyu just gave her a glance, his eyes narrowed, with a coolly curved lip corner.
"You didn’t come home all night and didn’t answer your phone."
His tone was haunting with a touch of grievances.
Ji Weitian was only stunned for a second, then she immediately pointed to her own phone, earnestly explaining, "I didn’t know it was on silent."
After speaking, she furrowed her brows, annoyed at herself for seeming so weak in front of him.
They had no relationship; why did she owe him any explanation about not coming home?
However, seeing that he seemed concerned about her, Ji Weitian’s resolve softened again.
She comforted herself internally with "better less trouble than more" and tried to soothe him.
"Have you had breakfast yet? Want to have breakfast together?"
"..."
Qin Nanyu didn’t respond to her invitation but instead looked past her towards the laboratory.
She had stayed with the team in the laboratory all night?
Qin Nanyu lowered his gaze, lifting a hand to rub his brow.
He had overseas meetings last night and was busy until he learned from the housekeeper that she hadn’t been home all night.
And not being able to get through on the phone.
Worried that something had happened to her, Qin Nanyu hadn’t dared to rest and had come directly to the laboratory.
Seeing that she was fine was a relief, but realizing that she hadn’t been concerned about him at all left him somewhat frustrated.
