Chapter 762: Not Just Acquainted, Somewhat Familiar
"You might as well stop looking, even if I’m standing right in front of you, you won’t be able to find me."
Ji Weitian couldn’t help but grumble in her heart.
At least Lu Jing knew to use Leng Jian to set a trap for her, tricking her into helping design a series of small programs.
She had faced off with Qin Nanyu so many times, yet Qin Nanyu hadn’t gained any advantage from her.
Now, as she stood right in front of him, all he thought about was supervising her homework...
The more Ji Weitian thought about it, the more suffocated she felt.
She picked up the water cup beside her and took a sip, hoping to suppress her anger, only to realize after drinking that the cup in her hand wasn’t hers, it was Qin Nanyu’s.
She didn’t care, since he was now legitimately her boyfriend, what’s wrong with sharing a cup?
If possible, she even wanted to share a brain with him, to make him open his eyes wide and see that the person he was looking for was standing right in front of him!
But the moment she remembered that she had only discovered today that Qin Nanyu was Y, Ji Weitian suddenly felt, she might not be in a position to mock him.
"Qin Nanyu, have you ever wondered why Dr. CC never shows his face in public?"
"..." Qin Nanyu’s dark eyes flickered, not answering immediately, as if he were seriously pondering the question.
Then he slightly parted his lips.
"Have you heard of someone named Leng?"
Ji Weitian: "..."
Ji Weitian didn’t expect him to suddenly mention Leng Jian, and before she could collect her thoughts, Qin Nanyu continued.
"Leng is the most important person next to Dr. CC. Anyone wanting to contact Dr. CC must go through him. You told me last time that the patent authorization from Dr. CC was obtained through a friend’s help. That friend, is it Leng?"
"..."
Ji Weitian hesitated to respond, sensing that if she answered, his next question would be whether Leng was Leng Jian.
At the time, she had been desperate to help Qin Technology Group through a crisis, not minding the details.
She then thought that ordinary people didn’t understand Dr. CC that well and concocted a reason off the top of her head, which should have sufficed since she had helped the lab and no one would likely fuss over the backstory.
She had never anticipated that Qin Nanyu would suddenly bring up old matters.
If he really was Y, he must have been investigating Dr. CC for more than a day or two, knowing quite a bit about Dr. CC, and the excuses that worked on others likely wouldn’t work on him.
Ji Weitian impulsively blurted out.
"I’m talking to you about Dr. CC, why bring up someone else? What does it matter if it’s cold or not, you might as well just ask me directly if I know Dr. CC."
"You know him?" Qin Nanyu raised an eyebrow, his tone playful as he followed her words.
Ji Weitian didn’t hold back, directly responding, "Yes, I know him, not just know him, but also quite well."
She and Dr. CC could be one and the same; how could she not be familiar?
Ji Weitian originally thought that after her statement, Qin Nanyu would ask her to connect him with Dr. CC, but instead, he just stared at her.
His gaze was calm and deep, and upon closer inspection, there seemed to be a trace of anger, faint yet discernible...
Before she could figure out what was going on, he had already reached over, grabbed the armrest of her chair, leaned over, and stared at her intently, articulating each word.
"Are you spouting nonsense in front of me just to protect Leng Jian?"
"..."
"If I told you that I already know Leng Jian is Leng, what else would you plan on telling me?"
