1692 Master Wang Discovered That Sister Nian’s in the Independent Continent
The secretary was about to leave when he stopped him again.
“President?”
Torre’s face twitched. He placed his hand on his brow bone. Although he didn’t believe it, he instructed cautiously, “Especially that girl called Qiao Nian! Get someone to do a good background check on her. See if she has any other backgrounds we don’t know about.”
Based on the information he had, the people from Country Z were all involved in scientific research or education.
Background?
That did not account for much in the Independent Continent.
However, the Radiant Gang insisted that Qiao Nian was related to the Ji family.
The Ji Family…
Torre couldn’t afford to offend such a family.
However, at the same time, he did not believe that a country bumpkin from overseas could be related to the Jis and know someone other than from the side family.
The Radiant Gang people had made it very clear to him over the phone that they saw someone from the Ji family!
The Ji family was very low-key. They were rarely seen at banquets in the Independent Continent. How could one of them be in the room of an overseas girl?
“Check if there’s anything different about her other than studying at Qing University.”

In a quiet three-story villa on the Independent Continent.
The white decoration was simple and clear. The furniture was stylish. There was also a one-meter-tall blue and white porcelain vase in the closet. It formed a strong visual impact with the black sofa not far away.
“Master Wang.” Mo Dong had just returned from a call outside. Seeing the young man who hadn’t slept all night and was about to go upstairs to rest, he looked up and reported to him, “Mo Xi just called and told me that Master Cheng’s men offended Torre. Torre seems to have found someone to take revenge.”
Gu San had not rested for a day and night. He had been dozing off just now, so he went to the kitchen to make a pot of tea.
But he came out as soon as he heard Mo Dong’s words.
“Someone from Master Cheng’s team?”
“Yes.” Mo Dong saw that he was holding a cup of tea and took it without hesitation. Gulping it down, he felt much more comfortable. Then, his brows relaxed and he said unhurriedly, “I heard that the person took out a billion yuan to snatch the goods that Torre wanted to buy from the auction. Mo Xi didn’t say the specifics over the phone. I think that’s what he meant.”
Gu San was a generous person and did not mind that he snatched his cup of tea. He turned around and placed the rest of the tea on the table. Then, he was stunned and looked at him in surprise. “There’s such a generous person in Master Cheng’s team?”
Mo Dong walked over and poured himself another cup of tea. This time, he didn’t gulp it down. He took a small sip and looked at Ye Wuchuan, who was walking up the stairs. “That’s what Mo Xi told me.”
At first, his eyes were filled with the hostility of someone who had not slept well. He did not really want to deal with these trivial matters. He wanted Mo Dong and the others to deal with it themselves.
But he frowned slightly and ignored them when Mo Dong said something about taking out a billion guns. He took out his phone, lowered his eyes, and sent a message.
He didn’t have to wait long before a message came back.
He looked down.
[QN: No.]
It was a simple word.
Qiao Nian was too lazy to even type a word more.
His thin lips curled up when he saw her concise WeChat message. He seemed to have seen the girl’s lazy expression when she replied to his message.
However, his smile froze for a moment. His sharp gaze moved up again as he reread the message he had sent.
[Are you in Rao City?]
Below was Qiao Nian’s reply a minute ago: [No.]
The answer was obvious.
