1497 No Wonder Master Wang Likes Her
“This…” The Qi family driver was used to being domineering in Country M. He didn’t expect a young girl to speak to him like this.
He thought of Qi Yan’s instructions and his eyes turned cold. “If Miss Qiao doesn’t cooperate, I’ll have to invite Miss Qiao to go!”
He emphasized the word ‘invite’.
Although he said that he was inviting Qiao Nian, he was actually coercing her.
Qiao Nian raised an eyebrow, her dark eyes cold.
It had been a long time since she’d seen anyone threaten her so openly.
Qiao Nian was about to ask him how he planned to “invite” her when a clear voice suddenly interrupted.
“Miss Qiao, you’re finally back.”
Qiao Nian looked in the direction of the voice and saw a man in a suit walking over. The man was tall, with a high nose bridge and deep facial features. From his appearance, he seemed to be of mixed race.
The other party walked in their direction and stopped in front of her as if he was very familiar with her. “Master Wang said that you went to the Pharmacy Association and asked me to wait for you here at the hotel.”
Qiao Nian roughly understood what was going on when Ye Wangchuan was mentioned.
After saying this, the other party looked at the Qi family’s driver and asked her softly, “This is? Do you know each other?”
The Qi family’s driver seemed to recognize him. He revealed a fearful expression. Without waiting for Qiao Nian to speak, he said, “Since Miss Qiao has an appointment today, I won’t disturb you anymore. I’ll come and look for you another day.”
With that, he didn’t dare make eye contact with the man and immediately ran off.
Previously, the Qi family’s car had driven over arrogantly. Now, it drove away again. There was no sign of its previous arrogance.
…
The other party waited until the Qi family’s car had completely driven away before heaving a sigh of relief. He turned to Qiao Nian and asked, “Are you alright?”
He thought for a moment and was afraid that Qiao Nian would misunderstand. He immediately explained, “I’m under Master Wang. He should have given you my phone number.”
“He did give me a phone number,” Qiao Nian said unhurriedly.
Seeing that she was not frightened, Ji Lin was slightly relieved and explained, “Master Wang guessed that you might encounter someone ignorant, so he instructed me to keep watch here. Fortunately, you’re fine.”
His facial features were tough, and he looked to be of mixed blood. He was very outstanding. He introduced himself gently. “Hello, Miss Qiao. My name is Ji Lin. I’m Master Wang’s subordinate. I’m mainly in charge of the matters in Continent O.”
Ji Lin had received news from Ye Wangchuan asking him to protect Qiao Nian during her time in Country M.
This was the first time he had seen Master Wang so concerned about someone.
Seeing that the other party was a young girl, he didn’t understand why Master Wang wanted him to put down what he was doing and her.
It was only at this moment that Ji Lin saw Qiao Nian’s striking face clearly. He finally understood.
Miss Qiao was really good-looking. No wonder Master Wang liked her.
Ji Lin smiled and extended his hand politely. “Nice to meet you.”
Qiao Nian raised an eyebrow. Seeing the other party’s gaze on her face, she lowered her cap lazily.
She shook Ji Lin’s hand and retracted her hand. “Qiao Nian.”
“I know. Master Wang told me your name.”
Ji Lin then looked at the time on his watch and then at her shoulder bag. He thought for a moment and asked, “Miss Qiao, you haven’t eaten anything, have you? Why don’t I take you to dinner first?”
