1457 Sister Nian Might Not Even Meet the Person You’re Climbing For
Tang Wanru knew that she must still be thinking about the fact that her greeting gift had been broken. She added, “I’m telling you the truth. I’m not lying to you.
“As long as you enter the Pharmacy Association, your future development won’t be worse than theirs. Qi Lanyin secretly broke your things because she’s jealous of you entering the Pharmacy Association.
“And Qiao Nian.” At the mention of Qiao Nian, her expression was filled with disgust and jealousy. “She won first place in the medical competition. So what if she won glory for the country in a world-class competition? She won’t even be able to touch the door of the Pharmacy Association!”
Jiang Xianrou’s mood finally eased a lot. The sinister look in her beautiful eyes faded, and the corners of her mouth curled up again. “I understand. I’ll perform well in front of the people from the Pharmacy Association.”
Tang Wanru placed her hand on her shoulder and smiled. “It’s good that you’ve thought it through. The Qi family is just your stepping stone. The Pharmacy Association is where you can truly display your abilities.
“Mom believes you.”
…
On the other side.
The dishes that Lu Zhi ordered were basically all served.
Embroidered balls of dried scallops, stir-fried chicken with pearls, sliced fish with milk sauce, golden hand rolls… A dazzling array of dishes filled the table.
Jian Jin saw the table full of dishes and couldn’t help but look at the young man sitting opposite her. She clicked her tongue and asked, “Boss Lu, you didn’t order every dish on the menu, did you?”
Lu Zhi looked down and picked up his chopsticks. He said calmly, “I don’t know what you like to eat.”
“You don’t know what Qiao likes to eat, do you? I’m just a ribbon-cutter.”
Jian Jin scanned the table full of dishes and sighed silently.
In a way, Lu Zhi was also a talent.
She took a look. There were so many dishes on the table, but they perfectly avoided what Qiao liked to eat. They were all light dishes.
How could his flattery compare to that person from the Ye family?
Qiao Nian acted as if nothing had happened. It was as if she had no objections to Lu Zhi’s orders. She grabbed her chopsticks and picked up a dish to try.
Then, she put down her chopsticks, looked up, and gave Lu Zhi an affirmative look. “Not bad.”
Jian Jin was speechless.
As expected, Lu Zhi lowered his long eyelashes and said in a good mood, “If you like it, I’ll order more next time.”
“These are enough.” Qiao Nian picked up the teacup beside her and took a sip of tea. Her body honestly didn’t touch her chopsticks. “My appetite is average. It’s a waste to order too much.”
Her phone vibrated on the table as they spoke.
Qiao Nian placed the teacup on the table and picked up her phone with one hand. She leaned back and opened the message.
[You’re in Beijing?]
[QN:?]
Qiao Nian sent a question mark.
The phone she’d put down vibrated again.
Qiao Nian picked it up again and looked down.
The other party had replied to her.
[My apprentice also went to Beijing. His name is Robert. I asked him to bring you something. Do you have time? If you do, meet him.]
Qiao Nian frowned and lowered her head to play with her phone. Her fair neckline was very eye-catching.
She typed quickly.
[QN: What is it?]
This time, she had learned her lesson. The other party was probably replying to her message on his phone. She might as well lean back in her seat and see what the other party said.
The message came back within a minute.
[Some ancient recipe.]
[I found it in the Association’s library. I figured you’d like it, so I asked him to bring it to you.]
