The Genius Sweetheart of the Abstinent Goblin Boss

Chapter 72 Is That Counted as Love?

Ji Ran had just finished taking a shower, opened the bathroom door, and walked out wearing a T-shirt and a headscarf.

Chi Tao hugged him tightly.

"What the hell!" Ji Ran was startled, her whole body tensed up, and she glanced at the person next to her inexplicably:

“Did you take the wrong medicine?”

"Wow, my poor little thing, you suffered so much last night, let me hug you and comfort you!" Chi Tao cried.

Ji Ran couldn't help but roll his eyes, and helplessly glanced at Jiang Baishen beside him, and asked casually:

"Is your sister okay?"

"Hmm?" Jiang Baishen realized that she was talking to him, and immediately responded with a smile: "It's okay, thank you Xiao Leng, if it weren't for you, I don't know what would have happened to Man Xi. She said she would definitely thank you in person!"

"It's not necessary."

Ji Ran had a ruthless look on his face.

After listening to the conversation between the two, Chi Tao was surprised, let go of Ji Ran and shouted:

"Huh? So many things happened in one night?"

Ji Ran was too lazy to pay attention to her, and when she let go of him, he quickly slipped away.

"No!" Chi Tao quickly pressed on again: "Did you catch a cold when Zeng Yichen pushed you into the river yesterday?"

As she spoke, she quickly reached out and touched Ji Ran's forehead. She was relieved to make sure it wasn't hot, and then she started to curse again: "This Zeng Yichen is really a piece of shit! Not only did he allow others to frame you, but he even dared to push you into the river?"

Hearing this, Ji Ran's hand that was wiping his hair suddenly slowed down, as if he was lost in memories.

Chi Tao felt a little regretful when she saw this, fearing that she would recall the unhappy things that happened yesterday.

"Ji..." Before the comforting hand could even reach her shoulder, Chi Tao watched the woman in front of her drying her hair inexplicably smile a sweet smile...

She couldn't help but reach out and touch Ji Ran's forehead more carefully.

"What are you doing again?" Ji Ran turned his head away speechlessly.

"You don't have a fever. How could you be so happy after being pushed into the river?" Chi Tao was very confused.

Ji Ran rolled his eyes speechlessly, turned around and went to the bathroom to blow dry his hair.

She just felt that she had caught a cold.

But when she thought that it was Qi Mu who held her so gently and fed her medicine attentively, she was happy.

She was too lazy to waste her precious brain cells thinking about useless things. What's more, she jumped into the river on purpose, so Zeng Yichen was just a tool to take the blame.

"Hey!" Chi Tao quickly followed and stuck to the door frame. She turned her head and secretly glanced at Jiang Baishen twice, then smiled slyly and whispered, "Tell the truth! What's going on between you and the handsome guy next door?"

Ji Ran just plugged in the hair dryer and his face suddenly felt hot:

"What could be going on?"

Chi Tao said, "Didn't they kiss? Did they confirm their relationship?"

Ji Ran frowned and thought for a few seconds, then asked, "Confirm what relationship?"

"Just..." Chi Tao suddenly choked up: "...boyfriend or girlfriend?"

"Boyfriend or girlfriend?" Ji Ran thought for a moment, "Does that count as... being in love?"

"Of course!" Chi Tao affirmed.

Then she asked with a sly look on her face:

"Now you know what he does and what his family background is, right? Is he still reliable?"

If it's too bad, then she will still support Mr. Jiang.

"do not know."

Ji Ran said with a nonchalant look on his face.

"Ah!!!!" Chi Tao yelled in shock.

Jiang Baishen didn't know what was going on, and ran over nervously: "What's wrong?"

"It's okay, it's okay...hehe..." Chi Tao smiled awkwardly.

Damn! Is this girl really innocent or really sincere? ? She didn’t even know the other person’s background and it has come to this…

But Mr. Xiao Jiang happened to come over and stand here, so Chi Tao couldn't open her mouth to educate him.

Seeing that nothing happened, Jiang Baishen breathed a sigh of relief and said:

"By the way, Xiao Leng, our project is progressing rapidly. The first half of the research is about to be completed, so Jiang's decided to publicly announce it in the next few days. Once they have planned the specific content and process in the next two days, I will go to Beijing University to confirm with you, okay?"

"So urgent?"

Ji Ran was a little surprised. In the past, they would only hold some pretentious press conferences after the final research results were released.

Jiang Baishen smiled helplessly. How could he not know what his father meant?

But now…his father’s wish was probably unfulfilled.

Hearing this, Ji Ran nodded indifferently. After all, press conferences were nothing uncommon.

After blow-drying their hair and changing their clothes, the three of them went out together.

Jiang Baishen went back to Jiang's company alone. Chi Tao originally wanted to take Ji Ran to school with him, but Ji Ran got on his motorcycle and disappeared without saying a word.

After parking the car at the college, Ji Ran went straight to the inspection room.

Looking at the screen, in addition to the components that river water should have, almost half of the periodic table appeared.

Initial inspection with the naked eye revealed the presence of at least several special biochemical reagents, an ingredient similar to a bulking agent, and a large number of suspected unknown virus corpses.

Ji Ran curled the corners of her lips unconsciously, it seemed that she had made the right bet.

This river water really has something to it.

I had guessed it was not simple, but I didn't expect it to be this simple.

She immediately operated again and directly advanced to a more detailed special category analysis system.

She wanted to see what huge secret was hidden behind the Zeng family.

It was so cruel that he dared to attack a national-level professor again and again.

After finishing all this, she returned to the office to complete the summary of the research project.

Only then did Chi Tao arrive late.

"Professor Ji!" Chi Tao's voice came before he even entered.

Ji Ran was used to it and continued typing calmly.

"Zeng Yichen is here!" Chi Tao rushed in breathlessly.

Ji Ran sighed silently, not even bothering to raise his head.

Chi Tao took a large glass of water and drank it all in one breath, saying proudly:

"I specifically told the security guards before I came up here that this person must not be allowed in in the future."

Hearing this, Ji Ran couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, as if he was very satisfied with this sentence.

Chi Tao was still cursing: "How dare you come here? Aren't you afraid that I will throw two basins of shit on him?"

After saying that, Chi Tao looked up at the thin little figure who was concentrating on typing on the keyboard. Her nose was sore again, and she rushed over to give Ji Ran a big bear hug:

"Wow, wow, wow! My poor little thing! You must have been very lonely and helpless yesterday!!"

Ji Ran continued typing on the keyboard with her arms folded under her shoulders with an expressionless face, but when she heard the words "lonely and helpless", she subconsciously paused for a second.

The only moment she felt lonely and helpless was when she imagined that Qi Mu would distrust her like Zeng Yichen.

But after he told her so firmly that he trusted her, all that was gone.

Chi Tao looked at her and saw her lips curl up in a sweet arc. Suddenly, she remembered something:

"By the way, Xiao Jiang didn't say anything bad to you just now even in front of me! How can you date someone without even knowing her family background? This is too outrageous!"
