Tian Chen’s people could come into contact with the world’s most advanced technology, the best scientific research laboratories, and obtain first-hand information.
The environment he came into contact with was different from Jiang Xianrou’s. It was not only Beijing and China. The people he came into contact with were all elites among elites in the world.
As the pride of the Jiang family, this was the first time Jiang Yao had suffered such a loss. However, the person who embarrassed him was none other than his own cousin.
Jiang Yao rubbed his throbbing forehead and sighed.
Since Qiao Nian was not answering his calls, he could only use other methods to contact her.
Fortunately, he had added the girl on WeChat through Jiang Li’s QR code. Jiang Yao scrolled through Qiao Nian’s profile picture on WeChat.
The girl’s posts over the last three days showed up.
It was empty.
It was obvious that she was not someone who liked to post about her private life.
Jiang Yao looked at the girl’s profile picture next. It was white and as clean as her feed. If not for the nickname on WeChat, he would have thought that it was an unused account.
[QN].
Jiang Yao stared at the WeChat account and thought for a moment. He really didn’t know what he could say.
He transferred some money via WeChat.
The transfer could be accompanied by a message, so he left a message.
…
By the time Qiao Nian was done editing the remaining scores, it was already 10 PM.
She tested the tone of the revised score and sent it to Wen Ruxia’s email after making sure it was okay. She tossed her pen and went to the bathroom to take a cold shower. Then, she came out in a bathrobe and poured herself a glass of hot water.
Qiao Nian held the glass in one hand and picked up her cell phone, which she had switched off and was charging, with the other. She stood casually.
Her cell phone lit up.
Several notifications came in.
Du Mingwei sent her the time of the group competition, the questions they were predicting this time, and some information.
Shen Yugui did not say anything. He only said that she had been given half a month of leave to prepare for the competition.
The other messages were from Liang Bowen and the others.
Liang Bowen asked if she was going to release a new song.
Without another word, Qiao Nian sent the newly written song to him. She scrolled through the other messages.
The penultimate message was from Jian Jin. “Qiao, when are you free? I’m in Beijing. Shall we meet? I have something for you.”
Qiao Nian narrowed her eyes and rested her elbow on the desk. She called her back and arranged a time to meet. Then, she took a sip of hot water and clicked on the last notification.
It was from Jiang Yao.
She clicked on it casually and saw a transfer record.
99,999.
There was also a message: [Nian Nian, why aren’t you here for dinner? Congratulations on entering the group stage. This is a token of my appreciation. Don’t feel pressured and take it.]
Qiao Nian raised her eyebrows. After looking at them for a long time, she felt that the amount was a little funny.
How much did Jiang Xianrou’s family look down on her that they felt that she would feel pressured if they sent her just 100,000 yuan?
Qiao Nian did not accept it or reply.
She quickly deleted the message.
Initially, she wanted to drag Jiang Yao into the blacklist. However, she thought better of it.
She didn’t like Jiang Xianrou and the others, nor did she care to be associated with them. However, no matter what, Jiang Li and Jiang Zongjin had an inseparable blood relationship with the Jiang family, including her grandfather.
She couldn’t go too far even if it just meant giving these people face.
