Qiao Nian had no interest in the auction.
She probably wouldn’t stay here for too long. When Liang Conglin and the others finished the procedures and picked Jiang Li and the others up, she would return to Beijing.
She lowered her eyes and casually put a hand in her pocket. Before she could reply, her cell phone vibrated again.
[I heard that a small pill will be auctioned at that time. It’s quite valuable. Previously, this pill was circulated every month on the black market. For some reason, it suddenly decreased. It’s been more than half a year, and there’s finally news of an auction for it.]
Qiao Nian heard about the small pill he was talking about and narrowed her eyes. She placed her fingers on her cell phone and became even more casual.
She had been too busy recently.
Wei Lou was also busy.
She hadn’t been making the small pills, and she had given away everything she made in the past to others.
The small pills circulating on the black market should have been sold by the people who had bought them previously.
Wei Lou had told her before that the price of the small pills on the market had soared recently. The seven-figure price they had sold at previously had now risen to eight figures.
Even with the money, one might not be able to get hold of it.
Qiao Nian didn’t care about this.
It was fine as long as she had enough money. Since Wei Lou didn’t ask her to continue this business, she was happy to rest for a period of time.
Slim Waist Control even sent her some messages. Qiao Nian didn’t look at them anymore and went offline. Her cell phone didn’t have much battery left, and there was no place to charge it here. She had to conserve some battery to answer the calls, at least.
She had just put away her cell phone when Qin Si’s faint voice came from her side.
“Sister Qiao?”
Qiao Nian looked up and saw the three familiar people.
Qin Si and Gu San were both present.
Another person was standing at the entrance of the banquet hall. He had an outstanding oriental look and a tall figure. It was none other than Ye Wangchuan.
Qiao Nian raised her hand and tugged at the brim of her cap in frustration, covering her eye-catching face. Her eyes were extremely dark.
What was this?
How did she end up meeting them here?!
…
In the blink of an eye, Ye Wangchuan and the other two walked over.
Qin Si rubbed his eyes to make sure that he wasn’t seeing things this time. The girl standing in front of him was Qiao Nian. His mouth opened slightly, and it took him a long time to find his voice. “Sister Qiao, didn’t you say that you went to pick up a relative?”
Silence.
Qiao Nian quickly raised her head and glanced in someone’s direction. She held her cell phone in one hand, her beautiful eyes unreadable. In any case, her eyes didn’t show that she was pleased.
Ye Wangchuan met her gaze and raised his eyebrows. He smiled faintly and was in a good mood. “I guessed.”
He spoke without rhyme or reason.
Only Qiao Nian understood.
What he meant was that he did not mean to betray her. He only guessed that she was also at Jin Chen Hotel, so he sent her a message to go to the entrance.
Who knew it would be such a coincidence?
She really bumped into him!
Qin Si didn’t notice their interaction. He was still wondering why Qiao Nian was here. He frowned. He simply couldn’t understand it no matter how he thought about it. He only thought of one possibility. “Your relative is… from the illegal district?”
Then Qiao Nian’s extended family was really too wide!
Qiao Nian was rendered speechless by his question. She didn’t seem to know how to deal with this situation. Her head hurt quite a bit now. She wanted to pull the cap off, but she felt that it wasn’t a good time. She looked up at the confused Qin Si and briefly told him about the chip.
Hearing Qiao Nian’s explanation, Qin Si regained his senses from the shock of meeting her at the banquet. “So, Sister Qiao, you came with Principal Liang and the others?”
