From Sidekick to Bigshot

After the incident with Jian Yiling's team, news came from Zhang Xin's side that their research had made great progress. They were now entering the final clinical validation phase.

If the clinical phase went well, Zhang Xin's team would announce the results of their research and thereby, achieve results before Jian Yiling.

This meant Jian Yiling's team would likely lose the competition.

However, a week later, Jian Yiling was the first to submit an application to verify her research to the national medical institution.

As long as the national medical institution confirmed the validity of Jian Yiling's research, then Zhang Xin, who had not yet submitted an application, would lose.

However, everyone knew Jian Yiling's research lab had just gotten destroyed and all her data had been wiped clean.

Hence, in just a week's time, it was impossible for Jian Yiling to catch up to her previous progression.

Zhang Xin did not become nervous when he heard Jian Yiling submit an application to the national medical institution. Instead, he began to laugh.

As expected, Jian Yiling fell for his trap!

This was in his plan.

He deliberately let out the word that his team had made progress.

This would make Jian Yiling stressed. After all, any data she previously had was utterly destroyed.

"Master, what if Jian Yiling's team actually has research results?"

Zhang Xin laughed when he heard this: "Are her research results not taken from me? I deliberately chose to let them know what medicine I gave Qin Chuan. After her data got destroyed, she definitely grasped as straws and tried to grab onto her last hope of victory."

"How are you sure that she must be using the information you leaked to them?"

"Although she has no evidence, she definitely could guess someone from the Zhang family destroyed her data and research lab. As she can't do anything without evidence, she would want to retaliate against me through other means. Knowing this, I created this opportunity for her. She would definitely take the risk as she believes that I am at fault first. Hence, she wouldn't have to feel guilty taking my research. But what she doesn't know is that this is a trap I set for her."

Zhang Xin's face was full of smiles.

Jian Yiling was still way too young.

In order to be fair and impartial, when the national medical institution verified the results provided by Jian Yiling's team, Zhang Xin's team also had to be present.

As Qin Chuan was concerned about Jian Yiling, he also requested to be there.

And thus, Yun Song who was the representative of the national medical institution decided to set the verification location at the hospital where Qin Chuan was hospitalized.

Zhang Xin arrived at the hospital with a big smile on his face.

The smile on his face gave Yun Song a bad feeling.

Intuition told Yun Song that this matter would never be that simple. The Zhang Xin he knew would never meekly admit defeat.

Zhang Xin had a strong desire to win. He would never let someone win over him especially if the matter affected the entirety of the Zhang family.

When Yun Song realized this, he wanted to warn Jian Yiling that this was possibly a trap.

However, as Jian Yiling's team began presenting, he as the judge, should not be whispering to her.

Despite this, Yun Song was incredibly worried about Jian Yiling.

Jian Yiling seemed completely unaware that she walked into Zhang Xin's trap.
