1806 Master Wang: Nian Nian, I’m Here
He was about to explain further when a voice suddenly interrupted, “Sister Qiao, what are you doing standing here?”
Qiao Nian turned her head and saw Qin Si walking towards them in a hurry.
Qin Si was indeed anxious. He approached them in a few steps and stood between Qiao Nian and He Congming. Then, he greeted He Congming with a fake smile. “Uncle He, why are you here?”
The He and Qin families had some interactions, but they did not have a deep relationship.
Qin Si had only met He Congming a few times, so he politely called him uncle out of respect.
It was different from him calling Bo Zheng Uncle.
When He Congming saw that someone was coming, he knew that he would definitely not be able to talk today. A little anxious and angry, he nodded and glanced in the girl’s direction before saying perfunctorily, “I came to see Old Master Jiang.”
“I see.” Qin Si then said, “Uncle He, have you seen him? Why don’t we go up together?”
He Congming couldn’t possibly talk to Qiao Nian about the Independent Continent and Ji Ziyin in front of Qin Si. He only let out a shaky breath and hurriedly refused. “I’ve already seen him. You guys can go up.”
Still not giving up, he told Qiao Nian, “Miss Qiao, I hope you can consider what I told you before. This is a very rare opportunity. If you don’t know much about the situation over there, you can ask Elder Nie and the others. They should know.”
Then, he looked at Qin Si and said gloomily, “I won’t disturb you anymore. I’ll leave first. Miss Qiao, I’ll wait for your news.”
He Congming left in a hurry, and it was obvious from his back that he was a little hunched and disheveled.
Qin Si watched until he got into the Land Rover on the side of the road and drove away before turning around and pointing in the direction he had left. He said to the girl, “Sister Qiao, how did you provoke him? No, that’s not right.” His mind worked quickly, and he immediately thought of Bo Zheng. Then, he looked at the girl with bright eyes. “Uncle Bo has recently raided a few of the He family’s strongholds. I thought they had provoked him.”
Qin Si circled her. After a long time, he hesitated before asking, “Hey, are you going to stand up for Jiang Xianrou?”
Qiao Nian thought he was going to say something useful, but he just spoke nonsense. After holding it in for a long time, she pulled down her cap handsomely. Her eyes curved up slightly as she glanced at him and asked calmly, “Do I look like a fool to you?”
Qin Si was speechless. Not to that extent.
“He Congming didn’t look for me because of Jiang Xianrou,” Qiao Nian said indifferently as she put her hands back in her pockets.
“Huh?” Qin Si scratched his head. He didn’t understand why He Congming came looking for her, but he had never liked to get to the bottom of things. He immediately gave up and relaxed his eyebrows. Then, he put his arm around Qiao Nian’s shoulder and asked with a smile, “It’s Zhang Yang’s birthday today. He booked a private room at Lan Pavilion tonight and invited a few friends. Do you want to join us?”
Qiao Nian was about to reply when her phone suddenly rang in her pocket.
Her attention was temporarily diverted. She took out her phone and looked down.
Ye Wangchuan’s name popped up on the screen.
Shouldn’t he be in the Independent Continent at this time?
A little distracted, Qiao Nian turned around and picked it up. “Hello.”
The man’s clear and charming voice rang out. “Nian Nian, I’m here.”
