Jiang Xianrou didn't know what she said to Jiang Li on the phone. After Jiang Li came back, he was very silent. When he saw Qiao Nian put down his chopsticks, he didn't have much appetite so he put down his chopsticks as well and stood up and asked, "Niannian, are you done eating? I'll pay the bill when you're done."
"Let me go. I'll go. How can I let you two pay for the bill while I'm here?" Jiang Zongjim quickly stood up to stop him, wanting to rush to pay the bill.
Qiao Nian looked at the two people who were fighting over the bill and sat up straight. Her pure black and white eyes concealed the fatigue from not getting enough sleep and she said calmly, "You don't have to fight anymore. One of my friends has paid for it."
Jiang Zongjin and Jiang Li, who were vying to be the first to pay the bill, were both stunned.
No one was scrambling to get out.
Jiang Li finally came to his senses and smiled. "Niannian, how come you have friends wherever you go... You are so popular."
Even in illegal areas.
Principal Liang said that they were able to successfully resolve the chip issue because Qiao Nian asked a friend to help.
They returned to Beijing to eat hot pot, and Qiao Nian had friends to pay for it...
Jiang Li couldn't describe the complicated feelings in his heart. After all, this was the first time that Jiang Li, who grew up in Beijing, experienced the feeling of being guarded by others when he went out.
The one who protects him wherever he goes is none other than his own sister!
He tilted his head and said it jokingly, then turned to say cheerfully: "Is your friend eating here too? Invite him to join us next time, I'll treat you! We can't eat for free, it's not nice."
Qiao Nian just changed her posture, stood up, picked up the backpack that she had thrown aside when she sat down, and looked at him uninhibitedly: "Let's talk about it next time."
She was halfway through her meal when she saw the message Zhang Yang sent her saying that the bill had been paid. She transferred the money to him, but Zhang Yang did not accept it.
Qiao Nian half-closed his eyes, not yet awake.
She knew exactly why Zhang Yang didn't take the money. It was probably because of the relationship between Qin Si and Ye Wangchuan.
But one thing is for sure, she and Jiang Li have the same idea, they are not willing to take other people's things for free, and the same goes for friends, they cannot always take advantage of them, otherwise there is no point in being friends.
Qiao Nian suppressed her thoughts and raised her head again. Her white face looked exquisite and her jawline was smooth and beautiful. "Where are you going next?"
"I'm going to go take a shower. I haven't taken a good shower in the hotel these few days." Jiang Li said, and then asked Qiao Nian; "What about you?"
Jiang Zongjin also looked at Qiao Nian sincerely: "Yes, Nian Nian, what about you?"
Qiao Nian didn't bring many things in her backpack, so she held it lightly in her hand. She raised her other hand, revealing a white wrist from her sleeve. She pulled the brim of her hat and said nonchalantly, "Go back to bed!"
She didn't sleep well and was in a bad mood. She probably wouldn't go anywhere and would go back to her apartment to get some sleep first.
"…" Jiang Zongjin was stunned for a moment and then said, "I'll take you back."
After saying that, he looked at Qiao Nian lovingly again. He wanted to reach out and touch the top of the girl's head, but he was worried that his action was too abrupt and would cause her disgust. He could only endure it, but his eyes were gentle and doting: "I'll take you home first, and then go to school."
Jiang Zongjin saw Qiao Nian looking over and explained, "I haven't written the follow-up report yet, so I can't leave it to Principal Liang alone."
After all, Liang Conglin is not a professional in this field, so he is here so that the two of them can discuss how to write it.
