1696 Sister Nian: No, I Don’t Like Taking Photos
Halfway there, Ji Nan thought of something and stopped to ask her, “By the way, SN, do you have a photo on your phone?”
Qiao Nian was dumbfounded.
What?
Photo?
Ji Nan smiled and explained gently, “Do you have your photo on your phone? I want to introduce you to my mother. She’s a good person. I’ll take you to meet her if you’re free.”
The wife of the Ji family’s head in the Independent Continent came from a prestigious family. Xie Yun was not someone that everyone could meet in the Independent Continent.
Ji Nan also remembered that this was Qiao Nian’s first time in the Independent Continent. Even if he didn’t have any intention of being in a relationship with her, it wouldn’t be bad to introduce her to more people.
It would be more convenient for her to work in the Independent Continent later if she caught his mother’s eye.
At the very least, small characters like the Radiant Gang wouldn’t dare to harass her again.
“I don’t mean anything else. I mean, just treat it as getting to know an elder.” Ji Nan was afraid that she would misunderstand him, so he explained further.
Qiao Nian immediately figured out why he wanted to do this. However, she hadn’t investigated her mother’s relationship with the Ji family yet, so it wasn’t convenient for her to have too much contact with them for now.
“I don’t usually take photos. Sorry.”
Ji Nan looked at her deeply. He couldn’t tell if she didn’t take photos or didn’t want to see his mother, but he just smiled. “It’s fine if you don’t have any. I just thought of asking you.”
As he spoke, he continued walking.
Qiao Nian pressed down on her cap and pursed her lips slightly. Catching up with him, she said in a low voice, “I’ll finish what I’m doing first. I’ll visit Auntie if I have time.”
Ji Nan suddenly felt that he had thought too much just now. His handsome face was filled with guilt, but he still smiled. “Okay, let’s see your schedule.”
He thought for a moment and said, “You can visit her if you have time. Forget it if you don’t. Anyway, there will be opportunities in the future. This isn’t the only chance.”
“Yes.” Qiao Nian didn’t say anything else. She nodded as if agreeing with him as they walked out of the restaurant.

Chamber of Commerce Alliance Headquarters.
Torre was working on a file when the computer flashed and the screen went black.
He was almost done. This sudden computer malfunction had wasted all his previous efforts.
Unable to suppress his anger, he picked up the phone and was about to make an internal call to ask what was going on.
However, he realized that the computer was not the only thing malfunctioning.
He couldn’t even use the internal phone in his office!
Torre stood up abruptly and pushed away from the leather swivel chair. He grabbed his phone and prepared to go out and take a look.
However, someone knocked on the door at this moment.
“Come in.”
The secretary rushed in with a flustered expression. “President, all the networks of our Chamber of Commerce Alliance are down.”
“Huh?”
“We seem to have been attacked by a hacker! The network, circuits, and security facilities of the headquarters have all been cut off from the main computer console. The main computer has also been infected with a virus and crashed. The entire Alliance has fallen to a standstill. Everyone is in a mess and asking what’s going on. Other than the elevator and backup electricity, we can’t use anything else.”
Torre listened for a long time before he finally got the gist of what he was saying. “You said we were hacked?”
“I think so.” The secretary lowered his head, not daring to speak loudly.
“Heh!” Torre was so angry that he almost laughed at this series of events. “We asked the Hacker Alliance for the system, and they still found someone to attack our network? Are they crazy? Or are their brains damaged?!”
