"Won't this make Rong Dai suspect you?"
After Gao Cai left, Lan Qian, the assistant who had returned from abroad together with Xin Ziqing, frowned and asked while handing her hot water and special medicine.
Xin Ziqing took the medicine, twisted it open and took it, and only answered her two or three minutes later.
"Isn't making her suspect what we want?"
"She's not like my body...not like Princess Up Yuan in your records here. Just based on those clothes and names, I really don't dare to confirm."
"But I don't believe there could be such a coincidence."
"Besides, isn't this what you and the professor have been researching?"
"If this matter succeeds, you and the professor know better than me what it would mean for you."
Lan Qian nodded. "That makes sense. As long as you have a plan in mind."
"I'm just worried that Yang Wanwan's body might get exposed. You know the project we're researching is prohibited."
"If it gets discovered, the consequences would be more than we can bear."
She solemnly warned Xin Ziqing.
Xin Ziqing smiled charmingly and stroked her own cheek. "That's why we need people to do certain things."
"Just order me in the future when you need something done."
Lan Qian frowned. Xin Ziqing was her and the professor's "test subject".
Unfortunately, Xin Ziqing's condition was unstable and required medication to maintain.
Plus, they had no way of sending Xin Ziqing back to her era yet, nor could they keep her here indefinitely.
The medications were specially configured for her. Once Xin Ziqing went off the medications, the body she was using now would die, unable to continue being a vessel, and Xin Ziqing would also completely die.
If Xin Ziqing's guess was right, this would be a very important matter for her and the professor, and spending more time was understandable.
This was not the result they wanted, nor was it the result desired by the financial backers supporting their research.
"Your hands and brain are for research. It's more effective to have these people do such things. You going would only alert them prematurely."
"If she really is the useless waste who spent ten years in the Cold Palace, then I understand her too well."
"I could make her die once, and I could make her die a second time, just not before her value is drained."
A poisonous glint flashed in Xin Ziqing's beautiful eyes. She didn't expect there to still be this kind of connection between her and that useless Empress!
That fool really was haunting her!
Dying once wasn't enough, she still wanted to die a second time by her hands.
Then she would just have to oblige her.
But this time she wouldn't let that waste off so easily.
"Go prepare. I need to go see Shi Ning. She can't be missing from this game."
"Also, were you able to get your hands on President Huo's information? I don't want to see what's publicly available. I want to see what others can't."
Xin Ziqing planned in her mind as she instructed Lan Qian.
Lan Qian didn't show any dissatisfaction. She went to grab the information and handed it to her.
"The Huo Corporation had an internal purge last year. There are irreconcilable conflicts between Second Master Huo's family and Huo Shaoting. There's also Lu Zheng."
"Not long ago there was a falling out with the Huo and Lu families because of Rong Dai, and the person was sent to Hainan."
"I've heard of this. Can you get Huo Linjing's whereabouts? I need this person."
Xin Ziqing asked as she looked through the information.
"No problem. Huo Linjing is attending a small cocktail party tomorrow. You can make contact. I'll arrange it for you."
"Also, I'll need some time on President Huo's side."
"I have to warn you, this man is very dangerous. It's best not to make contact lightly before you're sure you can handle it."
Lan Qian arranged while also reminding her.
Xin Ziqing's newly remade face was no longer Yang Wanwan's pretty face, but was still charmingly beautiful.
But Lan Qian didn't think Huo Shaoting was the kind of man who could be so easily enchanted by a beauty, otherwise he wouldn't have such frightening capabilities at such a young age.
If it wasn't absolutely necessary, she was unwilling to offend Rong Dai, who was Huo Shaoting's wife.
"I have my own methods for President Huo. Don't worry about that. Did you get that invitation card to Trends Magazine I asked for last time?"
