1661 I Heard That There’s a Spot to Visit the Independent Continent
He glanced at her moist lips and paused for a moment. However, he did not say it explicitly. He only said, “It’s nothing. You’ll know in the future.”
Qiao Nian found him inexplicable. He only spoke halfway, and when she asked him, he was so mysterious that he refused to explain clearly.
She was not someone who liked to dwell on things. Ye Wangchuan had only said half of it, and she was too lazy to investigate the rest.
“Oh,” she replied readily. “Then we’ll talk about it later!”
Ye Wangchuan’s eyes were deep. Seeing that the girl was defenseless, his smile deepened. He took the towel and straightened her shoulders. “Sit down. I’ll dry your hair for you. It’s easy to catch a cold with wet hair.”
Qiao Nian had rarely been taken care of like this. She was also used to taking care of herself alone. Her shoulders stiffened, but she didn’t move. “Mm.”
He wiped the water droplets on her hair and said, “Remember to drink that glass of milk.”
A little tired from his gentle drying of her hair, Qiao Nian narrowed her sleepy eyes and responded lazily, not wanting to move.
She did not move.
She didn’t really want to drink it.
However, he was still thinking about her age. He urged her softly, “Be good. Get up and drink a little. Just a little. You’re still growing. You don’t have to drink it next year.”
He mentioned next year again. She wanted to ask him what was going on next year, but she was so sleepy that she soon forgot about it.
Although she was reluctant, she reached for the glass of milk and casually drank half of it.

The Jiang family.
Over the past few days, the house had been busy with the moving process. Things were piled up everywhere in the four-story villa. It was a mess.
“Xianrou, your assessment results for the Pharmacy Association are out? How is it?” Tang Wanru video-called Jiang Xianrou as she sat on the sofa in the living room.
Jiang Xianrou had just come down from the second floor when he heard her cheerful voice.
“It’s okay. I got first place.”
“You got first place?!” Tang Wanru stood up and danced excitedly. She was even happier than her daughter. “That’s great. I knew you could do it. You’re the best.”
She saw Jiang Yao coming downstairs from the corner of her eye. She couldn’t stop smiling and called out, “Jiang Yao, come over quickly. Your sister got first place in the Pharmacy Association’s assessment this time. Do you want to say a few words to her?”
In the past, Jiang Yao would definitely congratulate her and encourage her to continue working hard.
However, he was exceptionally cold this time. He walked straight towards the entrance and said, “You can continue chatting. I’m gonna see Jiang Li.”
Tang Wanru’s eyelids twitched. She wanted to reprimand him, but she was still on a video call with her daughter and could not speak.
She could only watch as the young man left the house.
Naturally, Jiang Xianrou heard their conversation. She had just come out of the Pharmacy Association and was walking towards the dormitory. Her happy expression turned cold, but she was still calm. “Is Brother angry with me?”
“Don’t worry about him. He has a bad temper. He’s probably in a bad mood because things didn’t go well with Tian Chen. It has nothing to do with you. Don’t think too much.”
Tang Wanru was unhappy and changed the topic. “By the way, I heard the country has a spot to go to the Independent Continent this time. I wonder who will get it.”
