Madam's Identities Shocks the Entire City Again novel Chapter 2131

2131 I’ll Find Out

He didn’t even look at Ji Ziyin. Staring in the direction Qiao Nian and Zhou Zhou left, his face darkened and he said expressionlessly, “Why did you ask her about Wednesday’s meal just now? Is something important happening on Wednesday?”

Ji Ziyin fiddled with the hair by her ear and pursed her lips, as if in a difficult position. “I… Actually, Wednesday isn’t a special day.”

Gu Hengbo looked at her.

Ji Ziyin took a deep breath and decided not to hide anything anymore. She looked straight into his eyes. “I heard that Xie Tingyun has chosen an heir and wants to acknowledge that person as her goddaughter. She chose Wednesday to hold a filiation banquet at the Intercontinental Hotel and introduce the heir she chose to everyone.”

Gu Hengbo’s expression became unnatural the moment he heard Xie Tingyun’s name.

Ji Ziyin could tell that he was very concerned about this news.

She increased her weight. “…It’s said that the dean will also be attending.”

Not everyone could invite Feng Yu.

Ji Hongyuan had once tried to invite Feng Yu to dinner on her behalf, but he was rejected on the spot.

This time, she had long confirmed that Feng Yu would attend Xie Tingyun’s filiation banquet.

All the major forces in the independent continent had their attention on the banquet.

“You said the dean is going?” Gu Hengbo’s heart was a mess after Ji Ziyin nodded. He frowned for a moment before letting go. “…You suspect that the person Xie Tingyun chose is a newcomer to the research institute this year?”

He seemed to disdain mentioning Qiao Nian’s name, using “newcomer” to replace it.

Ji Ziyin’s eyes flickered and the corners of her lips curled up. However, she controlled herself, so it was difficult for others to tell.

She nodded and said sincerely, “I heard that the person Xie Tingyun wants to acknowledge is surnamed Qiao, so I suspect it’s her.”

She immediately added, “But Teacher, I only suspect her. I don’t have evidence.”

Gu Hengbo understood why Ji Ziyin had stopped Qiao Nian and asked her where she was eating on Wednesday.

His expression was dark and his emotions couldn’t be guessed.
