Everyone's faces showed astonishment and shock upon hearing the question posed by Wu Xirui.

They all cast curious glances at Wu Xirui.

Who is this person? The question wasn’t about agriculture, but about Professor Qiao’s private life?

How bold is he to ask about Professor Qiao’s private life?

Wouldn't Professor Qiao be angry?

The corners of Qiao Jing’s mouth twitched imperceptibly, as she completely ignored Wu Xirui’s question.

But she noticed that Wu Xirui hadn’t sat down yet and seemed to be waiting for an answer from her.

Her temples throbbed abruptly.

“Let's skip this question. Next, please.”

She hadn’t expected Wu Xirui to attend the academic exchange, and now she could no longer hide her identity

as Professor Qiao.

Wu Xirui smiled and stared at Qiao Jing for a good while before sitting down.

The experts all wore expressions of astonishment.

Professor Qiao isn’t angry?

And this man seems quite familiar with Professor Qiao, could it be they know each other privately?

“Could Professor Qiao and that man know each other from outside?”

“It seems like it, or else why wouldn't Professor Qiao be angry?”

Zhan Nanging, who was sitting in front of these people, heard what they were saying and was quite angered.

Who asks such personal questions in public?!

She wished she could call security to throw Wu Xirui out!

No matter if he’s the boss of scompany, even if the Heavenly King himself came, he shouldn't covet her

sister-in-law.

And who cares about getting to know Wu Xirui?

She would prefer if Qiao Jing didn’t know Wu Xirui - this man constantly sought out her sister-in-law, trying to

compete with her brother for her.

It was infuriating!

Zhan Nanging controlled her impulse to take out her phone and snitch, knowing that they were not supposed to

use their phones during the exchange unless it was an emergency.

She glared fiercely in Wu Xirui's direction, hoping he would take the hint and back off.

But Wu Xirui, he just kept staring at her sister-in-law.

Without even blinking!

She took a deep breath to suppress the anger welling up inside her.

If her brother were here, he would've definitely had Wu Xirui thrown out already.

The questions continued, and Qiao Jing was answering them one by one.

Gao Lihong, who had prepared a stomachful of pitches and questions, was now speechless.

Thinking back on how proud she had been at the institute, even asking Qiao Jing to pour her water, she now

wished she could crawl into a hole.

What's worse, she had been so arrogant, thinking Qiao Jing was just an old staff member...

Now her face felt painfully hot with embarrassment.

Professor Qiao checked the tand then said:

“Let’s take a ten-minute break. During this time, everyone can interact with each other.”

As her words ended, the sound of discussion gradually grew louder.

Meanwhile, Gao Lihong remained in her dazed posture, out of sync with the lively exchanges around her.

She had prepared so much, even assuredly thinking she could enter the research institute...

She couldn't accept it!

At that moment, her phone began to vibrate.

She had no mood to pay attention to the exchange anymore and simply took out her phone to check the

messages.

It was from a group message sent by her colleagues.

“Professor Gao, did you attend the academic exchange meeting? Have you seen Professor Qiao in person?”

“What kind of person is Professor Qiao? Man or woman? Can you reveal just a little bit to me?”

“Right, Professor Gao, have you signed a contract with Professor Qiao’s Research Institute? When are you

starting work?”

“Yes, Professor Gao, we have prepared our celebration banquet, inviting everyone, of course, except for a certain

someone who acts all high and mighty.”

No need to nnames, it's clear that when someone mentions “a certain someone who acts all high and

mighty,” they're referring to Qiao Jing.

“Hmph!”

Gao Lihong let out a cold snort as she looked at the last message, her face displaying a bitter and complex smile

that was hard to decipher.

Curse all you want, curse to your heart's content, but wait until the day you realize that Qiao Jing is Professor

Qiao—Ilet’s see if you can still spout the swords!

As she thought this, the complicated smile on Gao Lihong’s face grew even more pronounced.

She would absolutely not reveal Professor Qiao’s personal information, and it was not just because of the

confidentiality agreement she had signed.

She also wanted everyone in the group to offend Qiao Jing—it couldn't just be her who made a fool of herself in

front of him!

The exchange meeting didn’t end until two o’clock in the afternoon.

Qiao Jing went backstage for a sip of water and popped a throat lozenge, which finally eased the burning

sensation in her throat.

Just as she walked out the backstage door and was about to leave through a different passage, she ran into Wu

Xirui, who was waiting outside the door.

“What are you doing here?”

She had arranged a separate passage for herself to avoid meeting other people since the academic exchange

meeting was over, and she didn’t want to be disturbed by anyone.

By the way, how had Wu Xirui found this passage?

Wu Xirui’s face bore his signature smile as he looked Qiao Jing up and down several times.

He curved his lips and took a few steps forward, approaching Qiao Jing.

“Of course, I'm here to see our distinguished, Professor, Qiao.”

Qiao Jing rolled her eyes in exasperation and moved a step to the left, intending to bypass Wu Xirui.

She didn’t have tto tussle with Wu Xirui now; she was worried that Ni Yue might not take good care of

Pingping and Anan.

Moreover, she needed to get in the car to have the tto contact Ni Yue.

Wu Xirui, not giving up, strode forward and blocked Qiao Jing’s path once again.

“Why so cold, Professor Qiao? It’s been a while since we last saw each other, hasn't it?”

Qiao Jing grew even more speechless, a vein pulsing on her forehead and her face growing colder.

“Move aside.”

The smile on Wu Xirui’s face deepened as he was about to speak, but then a furious voice erupted.

“What do you think you're doing?!”

Zhan Nanging looked rather unpleasant, bearing a slight resemblance to Zhan Qipei.

She charged over to Qiao Jing’s side with a fierce momentum, shielding her like a hen protecting her chick.

So she simply tiptoed slightly and unabashedly rolled her eyes at Wu Xirui.

“Didn’t you hear my sister-in-law telling you to move? Why are you still shamelessly following her?”

She had just arrived, intending to leave with Qiao Jing, when she saw Wu Xirui chasing after her and even

blocking her way.

How could she endure that?

This Wu Xirui should feel lucky that her brother isn’t here.

Otherwise, with her brother’s jealousy, especially towards men, he might trigger a World War right here!

The smile on Wu Xirui’s face stiffened for a moment upon hearing Zhan Nanqing’s words.

“| just wanted to have a chat with Qiao Jing, she and | are friends. What does my business with her have to do
