1665 Thinking That Big Boss Would Find Someone From His World
Gu San nodded. “Yes.”
He then asked him, “What’s wrong with Miss Qiao being Master Wang’s girlfriend?”
Mo Dong’s expression was indescribable, but as a man, he could not do something like gossip behind people’s backs. He only shook his head with a regretful expression. “I’m just asking.”
He had always thought that someone like Master Wang would definitely find someone of equal social status who he could walk side by side with.
Unexpectedly, he found a 19-year-old student.
Mo Dong did not say that in his eyes, the two of them were more or less not compatible. Ordinary people like Miss Qiao would most likely never understand Master Wang’s world. He did not know why Master Wang had fallen in love with an ordinary student.
Coincidentally, the elevator arrived at this moment.
Mo Dong shook off his doubts, bid farewell to Gu San, and left in a hurry.

The following day.
Nie Mi contacted Qiao Nian at eleven in the afternoon and said that they had changed the time at the last minute. They were going to the Independent Continent a day earlier.
Qiao Nian didn’t have much luggage, so it didn’t take her long to pack. She arrived at the airport terminal in about an hour.
She was early.
Nie Mi and Liang Conglin had yet to arrive.
Only a few people from the research institute came, including Jiang Zongjin.
When the middle-aged man saw Qiao Nian coming over with only a school bag in her hand, he immediately stopped talking to the person beside him and went up to help the girl carry her things.
Qiao Nian was used to doing things herself. She didn’t ask him to help her. Instead, she calmly slung her bag over her shoulder.
Jiang Zongjin estimated that her bag was light. Perhaps she did not even have many clothes in it. He felt guilty when he thought about how his niece always carried many bags when she went out. He tugged a corner of his clothes, unable to raise his head. “It’s all Dad’s fault for being too busy these few days. I should have bought you a few clothes and helped you prepare your luggage. In the end, I didn’t do anything. You often have to worry about me.”
He had a lot of things to do in the research institute. There were many things that he had to do personally.
Even if he did not do it personally, he had to at least be present to command the others. Otherwise, a screw loose could cause irreparable losses to the country during scientific research.
Jiang Zongjin had always wanted to spend time with his daughter, but the project was already in progress. He often felt helpless.
In addition, Qiao Nian didn’t need anyone to take care of her. He didn’t know how to interact with his daughter… The more Jiang Zongjin thought about it, the more guilty he felt. He was too ashamed to face her.
He made up his mind.
After finishing the negotiations on the Independent Continent, he would take leave from the research institute and spend more time with his daughter.
Jiang Zongjin felt a little less upset after deciding. He smiled again and said to Qiao Nian, “So be it. It’s okay. I’ll buy you more when we reach the Independent Continent.”
Qiao Nian had only brought one or two sets of clothes and had never thought of buying more. However, she didn’t refute him.
Jiang Zongjin asked worriedly, “Nian Nian, did you bring your toothbrush?”
“Yes.” The girl’s voice was low and pleasant.
Jiang Zongjin looked at the girl’s beautiful face and felt proud. “I also brought you a set of toiletries. By the way, I also got someone to buy you a set of face wipes. They’re in my suitcase. I’ll give them to you when we get there.”
He knew that Qiao Nian liked simplicity. Jiang Zongjin had seldom seen her with makeup.
He didn’t know how to take care of his daughter, but he had heard his colleagues talk about their daughters in the past. They mentioned what brands of skin care products and what perfumes they liked.
