1730 Nian Nian, Are You Investigating Your Mother?
Behind the young man stood a black man who looked like a bodyguard. His muscles bulged against his black suit.
When the two of them saw the person who opened the door, the black bodyguard did not react at all. He was like an emotionless robot.
Lu Zhi’s eyelashes lowered slightly when he saw Jiang Zongjin. The corners of his lips curled up and he asked gently, “Hello, does Qiao Nian stay here?”
He looked inside as he spoke.
At a glance, he saw the girl without her cap in the room, revealing an exquisite and eye-catching face.
In addition, he also saw Zhong Yiliu and a few other people.
Jiang Zongjin remembered Jiang Yao mentioned Tian Chen many times before. When Lu Zhi, who was behind Tian Chen, stood in front of him, it was as if he was stepping on cotton. It seemed unreal. He turned his body to the side and made way. His voice was hoarse as he spoke. “Are you Nian Nian’s friend? She’s inside.”

At this moment, Qiao Nian’s standard room was filled with eight people. Originally, it was already very crowded with five people.
In the blink of an eye, three more people arrived. The small room was filled with people.
This time, not only did she have a headache, but her head was also buzzing. She was about to explode.
After Lu Zhi came in, even the usually talkative Nie Mi was dumbfounded. He did not speak for a long time. He was silent for a few minutes before he reluctantly broke the silence, “Nian Nian, Lu…”
He had only said one word, when Qiao Nian interrupted expressionlessly, “WeChat friends.”
The corners of Nie Mi’s mouth twitched. He glanced at her. “You have quite a lot of online friends.”
“So-so. Not many people.”
Nie Mi was speechless. Good lord, Lu Zhi was here. She even said that it was so-so and that she did not have many ‘online friends’.
Qiao Nian was only glad that Ji Nan hadn’t come to join in the fun. If he had come, she would probably have been able to gather two tables of mahjong players today.
Seeing so many people in the room, it was not a good idea for everyone to stay there in a daze. She was the first to speak. She glanced at them and suggested, “I heard that there’s a good Chinese restaurant nearby. Why don’t… we go for a meal together? My treat.”
The Ji family’s banquet was of a high standard and the dishes were exquisite.
However, Qiao Nian had never liked formal things. For example, she wasn’t interested in dishes that were beautiful but tasted average.
She basically didn’t touch the food tonight. She only ate a little to show respect.
The others did not eat much, either.
She suggested that they have a meal together. Master Cheng and the others looked at each other and agreed.
Qiao Nian sent a message to Ye Wangchuan asking about the location of the Chinese restaurant he mentioned.
Soon, she received the location.
Now it was much more convenient to find the place.
Qiao Nian sent the location to Lu Zhi and asked him to lead the way. After all, he came to the Independent Continent more often. He was more familiar with the way here.
With Lu Zhi leading the way and Master Cheng and Zhong Yiliu knowing each other, everyone chatted along the way. The atmosphere was a little uncomfortable at first, but later on, they chatted with ease.
Qiao Nian walked behind them and watched as they chatted. She heaved a sigh of relief as she replied to Ye Wangchuan’s message.
Jiang Zongjin didn’t say much along the way. He didn’t go with Master Cheng and the others to chat with Lu Zhi and Zhong Yiliu.
Seeing that Qiao Nian was walking behind him, he slowed down until she was walking side by side with him. Only then did he hesitantly ask, “Nian Nian, are you investigating your mother?”
