But why should she help Qiao Nian
Mr. Jiang looked at her with cloudy and shrewd eyes, as if he could see through her innermost thoughts. His voice was quite tired: "Xianrou, can you really not help me find Zhou Hengfeng?"
"It's not that I don't want to help." Jiang Xianrou looked at Old Man Jiang and asked softly, "Grandpa, doesn't Old Man Nie know someone from the Zhou family? Qiao Nian has such a good relationship with Old Man Nie, she can contact Uncle Zhou through Old Man Nie."
Everyone knows that the Zhou family hates Qiao Nian to the core!
Although the Zhou family was afraid of Ye Wangchuan who was behind Qiao Nian, and hated him but dared not do anything, Qiao Nian would only be asking for humiliation by going to them for help.
Jiang Xianrou could understand such a simple truth.
How could Jiang Weishang not have thought of this
Seeing that she was unwilling to help, Jiang Weishang closed his eyes, looking very tired. Without saying much, he waved his hand at her and said, "It's okay. If I can't help, forget it. I'll think of a way. You can go out now."
Jiang Xianrou raised her eyes and glanced at him. She hesitated for a moment, but it was only for a moment, and was soon covered by the jealousy in her eyes. She hummed and said softly, "Then Grandpa, I'll go out first."
"Go ahead." Jiang Weishang nodded.
Jiang Xianrou went out without looking back.

The Lanting box was bustling with activity.
Qiao Nian occupied a corner of the sofa, wearing a baseball cap and with a flamboyant look.
Tang Ning and He Wang, who was the first person in the group to greet Qiao Nian, all arrived. They didn't look at the girls on purpose, but their eyes kept drifting in that direction while they were chatting.
The three words "call me sister-in-law" that Wang Ye personally stamped in the group are still vivid in my mind.
But the bunch of second-generation rich guys in Beijing's top circles looked at the girl curled up on the sofa, lazily, and they really couldn't associate the title of "sister-in-law" with the girl's overly young face.
This was He Wang's first time meeting Qiao Nian. He had heard that Tang Ning had met Qiao Nian several times before he came. While playing cards, he took the opportunity to ask, "Tang Ning, do you know how old is Wang Ye's younger sister who came from outside the city?"
He was sent abroad by the He family to study early on, and just came back a few days ago. He didn't know much about Qiao Nian. When he saw Qiao Nian at first glance, and then looked at Qiao Nian's eye-catching and overly eye-catching face, his expression was quite complicated, and he lowered his voice; "You are not still a high school student?"
Tang Ning is a junior this year, one year younger than Jiang Xianrou, but her demeanor seems very mature and steady, much more mature than her age.
Hearing this, she pulled out a pack of ladies' cigarettes from her pocket, took out a cigarette, and glanced in the direction of Qiao Nian. She pursed her red lips and silently put the cigarette back into the cigarette box, picked up the cup, drank a sip of water to calm her nerves, and said, "18?"
"18?" He Wang was shocked: "Doesn't that mean he is only in the third year of high school?"
Tang Ning raised her eyelids and glanced at him. She thought he might be an idiot, but the He family was quite powerful in Beijing and was considered a branch of the Ye family. Their situation was similar to that of the Qin family, both of which were headed by the Ye family. However, He Wang had received a Western education since childhood and was educated very simply. He would say whatever he thought.
Since Wang Ye has recognized Qiao Nian's identity, but he still dares to call her "sister", it can be seen that this guy has no brains.
Tangning didn't want to talk to him at first, but when she saw the innocent look on his fair face, she thought it would be easier to get along with someone like him, so she bought him a favor and said slowly, "Ms. Qiao was just admitted to Tsinghua University this year, and she will be a freshman in September. I don't know what month her birthday is, but if it's early, she could be 19."
