Hidden identities of the AI Heiress
Chapter 851 - Chapter 851 Chapter 851 Did you tell her on purpose

Chapter 851: Chapter 851 Did you tell her on purpose? Chapter 851: Chapter 851 Did you tell her on purpose? Jiang Jing subconsciously asked, “Mom, what are you planning to do?”

Xu Qiao’s eyes shimmered with cunning as she spoke in a gentle voice, “Of course, I will tell everyone about the injustices you’ve faced. My daughter is so outstanding; she couldn’t possibly have been rejected. I don’t believe there wasn’t the slightest bit of nepotism involved.”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Jing’s heartbeat suddenly quickened, so fast it felt like it might leap out of her throat.

Reason told her that she should stop her mother’s actions.

Qiao Yun was the future daughter-in-law the Li Family valued, and Li Hanzhou was so protective of her.

Plus, with the Qiao Family backing her, her becoming a special invited examiner at Tianqi might be due to the Qiao Family’s influence.

After all, Qiaose Research Institute’s close relationship with Tianqi Research Institute was well known.

Considering the pros and cons, provoking them would be very detrimental to the Jiang Family’s development.

Moreover, given Tianqi Research Institute’s reputation, they shouldn’t blatantly ignore Qiao Yun’s nepotism.

Perhaps due to jealousy towards Qiao Yun or an unwillingness to accept the situation, Jiang Jing swallowed and said with some nervousness, “This isn’t a good idea. If Qiao Yun managed to become a special invited examiner for Tianqi, there must be some connections behind it.”

However, Xu Qiao’s focus was, “So she also got in through the back door. Tianqi isn’t as fair and impartial as everyone says.”

Jiang Jing bit her lip, “That shouldn’t be the case…”

“Why couldn’t it be?”

Xu Qiao looked at her beloved daughter, who was enduring the injustice, and sighed, “Silly child, you are too naive. Do you think everyone is as upright as you? How old is she? Even if she has the ability and skills, could she really be better than those veteran professors? Why would Tianqi specifically invite her to be a special examiner? There’s something quite puzzling about this.”

After a pause, she continued muttering, “I remember you said that Tianqi’s assessments usually only had one examiner. Why is there an extra one this time, and right after your bet with Qiao Yun? Maybe it was specifically aimed at you, and you’re still innocently letting people take advantage of you.”

It must be said Xu Qiao was half right.

It was indeed because Jiang Jing wanted to bet with Qiao Yun that she remembered the Tianqi assessment and, coincidentally, was returning to Yuncheng, so she casually came to oversee it.

It wasn’t like what Xu Qiao suspected, solely to annoy Jiang Jing.

Jiang Jing wasn’t worth that much of Qiao Yun’s time and effort.

However, Jiang Jing was already obsessed, and after Xu Qiao’s analysis, her mind began to muddle.

She thought hopefully, if she was rejected, maybe it wasn’t because her skills were inadequate but because Qiao Yun was intentionally targeting her?

Jiang Jing was used to smooth sailing and suddenly faced failure. No matter how she tried to console herself, she couldn’t convince herself of the possibility of failure,

Now that someone offered her a justifiable reason, she naturally delved into it.

Xu Qiao babbled, “The whole circle knows you were going for Tianqi’s assessment. Mom was at a gathering recently, and they were praising our Jiang Family for raising a genius like you. Now that you’ve suddenly been rejected, who knows how they might kick you while you’re down. Jingjing, Mom is just looking out for you, not wanting you to be the subject of gossip.”

Jiang Jing understood this all too well.

“Just leave this to me, and don’t worry about it,” assured Xu Qiao, determined not to let Jiang Jing become a laughingstock.

Jiang Jing’s lips moved, but before she could speak, she suddenly caught sight of Qiao Yun. Her pupils contracted, her gaze growing colder as she found herself unable to look away from Qiao Yun.

…

Qiao Yun also saw Jiang Jing. She initially wanted to ignore her; however, something seemed to cross her mind. She paused, asked Li Hanzhou and the others to wait, and turned towards Jiang Jing.

Jiang Jing hadn’t expected Qiao Yun to approach. She wore a defensive expression and spoke with hostility, “What more do you want to do? Have you come to mock me?”

Qiao Yun lifted an eyebrow. In contrast to Jiang Jing’s anger, her expression was calm, and she said with a meaningful tone, “Do you know why you failed?”

Jiang Jing was stunned for a moment.

Xu Qiao frowned, her voice laced with disgust, “It’s all because of you.”

“That’s right.”

Jiang Jing snapped back to reality, her gaze on Qiao Yun was as if she wanted to devour her, and she said through clenched teeth, “I could have succeeded, but it was because of you that I failed to be selected. Are you so afraid that Tianqi would admit me? Is that why you went through such great lengths to become a special guest examiner?”

Tianqi is the top research institute in the country, and for anyone wishing to achieve success and fame, entering Tianqi is the best choice.

Of course, even if not selected, she could still go to other research institutes.

But with Qiao Yun around, she couldn’t settle down to focus on her research, and whatever she did, she was reminded of Qiao Yun’s suppression of her.

If things continued this way, she figured she’d have to leave the country in disgrace.

Jiang Jing’s breathing became slightly rapid, and with angry eyes, she stared at Qiao Yun’s beautiful face. Although it showed no emotion, she felt like Qiao Yun was mocking her.

Suddenly…

Jiang Jing’s expression paused.

She couldn’t help but think, did Qiao Yun become a special guest examiner for Tianqi with the intention of ruining her?

What had she done to offend Qiao Yun?

The more Jiang Jing thought about it, the more it seemed to be the case. Her vision darkened, and her hands clenched tightly, almost drawing blood from her palms, but she couldn’t suppress the anger she felt towards Qiao Yun.

How could there be people in this world who, while outwardly innocent, harbored such malice inside?

Li Ye had truly lost his sight.

Even Professor Xu was senile, not taking her as a student but favoring Qiao Yun instead.

Jiang Jing took a deep breath, forcing the rage in her heart down, and said with forced composure, “Don’t worry, I won’t fall into your trap, and maybe I should even thank you for giving me more motivation. Given time, I will definitely surpass you.”

Qiao Yun had no idea what Jiang Jing was talking about. Her tone neutral, she said, “Oh, then good luck.”

Jiang Jing’s expression darkened further.

Qiao Yun didn’t want to say much more, her voice even as she told her purpose, “You failed because someone implanted a virus into the software you carried.”

Jiang Jing was astonished, not comprehending.

Qiao Yun watched Jiang Jing’s rapidly changing expressions leisurely and said, “However, not discovering it also means you’re less skilled.”

Jiang Jing was shaken to her core and, regaining composure, her emotions somewhat agitated, she said, “You’re lying to me! How could there be a virus in the software I created myself.”

Qiao Yun gave an indifferent ‘oh’, “You’ll have to ask yourself.”

She just wanted to inform Jiang Jing about this matter; what Jiang Jing thought afterward was none of her concern. After speaking, Qiao Yun returned to Li Hanzhou’s side.

Li Miao leaned in close to Qiao Yun, her eyes glancing at Jiang Jing’s ghastly expression not far away, “Qiaoqiao, what did you tell her? Look at her; she seems like she wants to eat you alive.”

Qiao Yun replied nonchalantly, “I told her the truth.”

Li Miao pondered the expression on Jiang Jing’s face and said, “Why do I feel like this truth of yours is about to infuriate her to death? Qiaoqiao, did you do it on purpose?”

Qiao Yun with an innocent face, “I simply told the truth.”
