Chapter 119 Being Targeted
Under the blazing sun, with not a breath of wind, the two had just stepped out of the office when a wave of heat hit them. The sunlight was blinding, and Ji Sisi squinted.

The sun was strong, but not as hot as I had imagined; it was still bearable.

Ji Sisi and her friends were lucky; they only waited for about ten minutes before the car came wobbling out from the other end.

It was past 2 p.m. when they arrived in the county. Ji Sisi led Shen Zichen to his destination and then returned to the agricultural supplies office.

Agricultural supplies institute.

"Comrade, what do you do?"

As Ji Sisi approached, the gatekeeper, wearing a red armband, rushed out of the guardhouse and stretched out a hand to block her way.

"Sir, I'm also from the institute. I'm here to see Director Wu and Professor Chen."

The eyes beneath the blue cap were filled with suspicion. "I've never seen you before. Show me your work ID."

Ji Sisi was helpless; she hadn't thought about this and hadn't mentioned it to Director Wu.

Neither Chen Chen nor Director Wu mentioned the matter of obtaining the certificate.

Ji Sisi could tell that the old man in front of her didn't seem like someone easy to talk to, someone who followed the rules, so she had no choice but to back down.

"Sir, I was in a rush to start this job and haven't had time to get my certificate yet. If you don't believe me, why don't you go upstairs and ask Professor Chen or Director Wu? Tell them that a woman surnamed Ji is looking for him."

The old man wanted to refuse, but he was worried that his rigidity would delay his boss's business, so he pulled the iron gate and prepared to go upstairs to ask.

A little while later, Ji Sisi heard footsteps and voices, thinking that she could finally go in.

Upon seeing the person, Ji Sisi remembered who the man next to the old man was; he was one of the people who had come to the test site with Chen Chen before.

The man wasn't very tall, about 1.7 meters, and was very thin. He wore rectangular black-rimmed glasses.

The old man said to Ji Sisi, "Director Wu and Professor Chen are not here."

"Xiao Xiao, do you know this woman?"

The man's next words shattered Ji Sisi's smile.

Xiao Jingye's gaze lingered on Ji Sisi for only a few seconds. "I don't know her. I don't remember her."

Ji Sisi frowned. Was this person face-blind?

"Comrade, I am Ji Sisi, the liaison officer of Huaihua Commune. We have met several times when you came to the experimental site. I even spoke to you a few times before. I visited your institute just recently. Don't you remember me?"

She had seen him more than once, even twice. Ji Sisi didn't believe this person didn't remember her.

She wouldn't call herself a stunning beauty, but she wasn't bad either, so how could I not remember her at all?

Either she has face blindness, or she did it on purpose, but she didn't provoke this person, so it's unlikely that she would deliberately target her?
Xiao Jingye shook his head again, "I'm sorry, I really don't remember you, comrade. No matter how angry you are, I don't know you."

The old man is definitely on his side; Xiao Jingye has already said so much.

If he, the gatekeeper, doesn't kick them out soon, things will get complicated.

"Alright, lady, you're not one of us, and you don't have a letter of introduction or any identification. I can't let you in. You can leave now."

Ji Sisi was speechless, her tone helpless, "Regardless of whether we know each other or not, where did you see that I was angry? You even have two extra eyes than normal people."

She had been very polite and even suspected he was face-blind at first, but then the man started stirring things up and provoking conflict with his next sentence.

Or perhaps she's overly kind; she's clearly pretending not to know him.

Since he was being impolite, Ji Sisi promptly abandoned all manners. Xiao Jingye, having been subtly criticized for being bespectacled, finally showed some emotion on his usually cold face.

"Miss, please don't attack me personally just because I didn't cover for you. No matter how much you humiliate me, I won't lie through my teeth."

Ji Sisi glared at the man opposite her. Without her threats or humiliation, he had already started to lie through his teeth.

"Okay, you don't remember me, but you must remember the greenhouse cultivation plan, right? Don't tell me that someone who works at the Agricultural Materials Institute under Professor Chen wouldn't know about this key project."

Greenhouse cultivation? The old man looked at Xiao Jingye curiously; even he knew that the institute was working on an important project.

I heard that if it succeeds, we can eat whatever we want without having to wait for it to be in season.

Xiao Jingye's attitude remained unchanged; instead, he noticed the old man's wavering stance.

“This is a confidential project of the institute. How did you find out? Uncle Zhou, don’t worry about this person. If she continues to pester you, just report her to the police.”

Xiao Jingye glanced at Ji Sisi with disdain.

"I have things to do upstairs, so I'm going up now."

Xiao Jingye turned and left without even looking back.

"Lady, you've seen it yourself. If you were one of our staff, Xiao would definitely recognize you. Since you've already been exposed, don't waste your time at the door. I won't let you in."

Now the old man disliked Ji Sisi even more, thinking she had come to the station to inquire about secrets or something, and slammed the door shut as he entered the guardhouse.

Being treated like this, even Ji Sisi, who doesn't have a short temper, became angry.

Under the scorching sun, she felt chilled to the bone, and her heart was filled with pent-up anger.

Ji Sisi had no choice but to go to the nearby agricultural machinery bureau, find Song Yiping, borrow paper and pen from her, and write down the precautions and some details for greenhouse installation. Finally, she added that she had been kicked out today and asked Director Wu to help her get a work permit as soon as possible.

Finally, I asked Song Yiping to pass it on to Director Wu. I had heard her say that the two families lived close by, so it would save her the trouble of going to the agricultural supplies office again.

"Don't worry, I'll deliver it to Old Wu's house tonight. But who's so clueless? You didn't offend anyone, did you?"

Song Yiping also felt something was wrong after hearing this.

Ji Sisi's lovable personality and appearance clearly indicate that she is being targeted.

"I don't know either, Sister Ping. I need to catch the bus, or I'll miss my chance to get home."

Ji Sisi looked up and saw that it was already 3:30 pm. The last bus was leaving at 4 pm. If she didn't get to the bus station soon, she would be too late.

Song Yiping didn't try to stop her, and assured her, "Okay, go ahead, I promise I'll get it done for you."

Not only did she get it done for Sisi, she also wanted to take the opportunity to humiliate Lao Wu. She had finally caught that old guy red-handed.

They even said everyone in the institute is an outstanding elite, tsk tsk, is this what a good elite is?
When Ji Sisi arrived at the bus station, Shen Zichen was already on the bus waiting for her.

Ji Sisi boarded the train after having her ticket checked and saw Shen Zichen sitting at the back, carrying a large bag of medicine.

"When did you arrive?"

Ji Sisi didn't sit in the last row, as the last row is the most bumpy and she gets carsick, so she chose to sit in a seat near the front.

The two were talking several seats apart.

Shen Zichen replied, "I just got in the car a little while ago. Have you resolved your issue yet?"

Thinking of the bespectacled man, Ji Sisi waved her hand irritably, "Don't even mention it, I didn't check the almanac before I went out today, and I ran into a weirdo."
