It was also a recognition of the country, especially since the IT Association had taken the lead to recognize this research result.
He had originally wanted to find connections to help resolve this matter, but the people he had found had been stopped by Hengfeng Corporation. They couldn’t help at all.
Until now, he still had not figured out who Qiao Nian had found to help them. After the incident, Hengfeng Corporation actually readily approved of the IT Association’s decision. The Qi family, which had an arrogant and domineering style of doing things, did not dare to say a word this time!
Jiang Li thought about it and recalled that Gu San had told him that Master Wang was also in the illegal district… He instinctively thought that Qiao Nian had asked Ye Wangchuan for help, so he didn’t think too much about it. It was mainly difficult to mention.
Qiao Nian’s reaction was very calm. She only picked up the pot of fragrant oil beside her and pulled the tab of the pot with her fair hand, pouring the oil into the bowl.
When she looked up again, her legs were bent under the table. Her eyes were beautiful and dark under the brim of the cap. She looked at the middle-aged man who had become much more haggard recently and placed her elbow on the table. She supported the side of her face and narrowed her eyes. “You can tell me about these things the next time you encounter them.”
“…” Jiang Zongjin was a little stunned when he met her clear and arrogant eyes. He didn’t react for a moment.
Qiao Nian grabbed her chopsticks and picked up a piece of beef to put down as she talked casually. “Maybe I can help.”
“Oh!” Jiang Zongjin came back to his senses this time and nodded. He promised seriously, “Okay. I understand. I’ll definitely tell you no matter what happens next time.”
He paused again. Thinking of how Qiao Nian had especially followed Liang Conglin to such a dangerous place as the illegal district to look for him, he felt even more guilty and uncomfortable. He promised again with mixed feelings, “I promise I won’t hide things from you like this again!”
As the two of them were talking, Jiang Li’s phone rang, breaking the warm atmosphere in the room.
He frowned. “Who is it?”
He found his phone and took it out to take a look.
Seeing the number on the caller ID, he looked in the direction of Qiao Nian and Jiang Zongjin. He seemed to have a headache. He pulled out a chair and stood up. “Uncle, Nian Nian, eat first. I’ll go out and answer a call.”
Jiang Li nodded and rushed out with his phone.
When Qiao Nian held the school promotion banquet, Jiang Zongjin was in a mess because of the chip matter. He didn’t know what had happened in Beijing.
However, he was there at that time and knew very well what his biological sister had done.
They were clearly family.
Nian Nian’s results were so good, and she had successfully entered Qing University. Her family should be happy.
However, his mother and Jiang Xianrou did not seem to be happy. Jiang Xianrou even found an excuse that day to not attend the banquet.
If not for Master Wang and the others bringing a large group of people, as well as Nian Nian’s friends, the school promotion banquet would probably have been a joke.
Jiang Li was more belated in the ways of the world, but he had been in the circle since he was young. He could see Jiang Xianrou’s hostility toward Qiao Nian.
However, both of them were sisters. It wasn’t good for him to be sandwiched between them.
He could only go out to answer this call.
Jiang Li took a long time answering the call. When he returned, Qiao Nian was almost done eating. She put down her chopsticks and leaned back in her chair tiredly.
During this time, Jiang Zongjin chatted with her about school and some miscellaneous life matters.
Qiao Nian’s attitude was quite good as she answered them one by one.
