Jiang Xianrou wished she could find a place to hide under such gaze. She opened her mouth with difficulty and uttered a dry and unpleasant note.
"I… "
Robert looked at her with burning eyes, as if he wanted her to introduce him to Qiao Nian.
Jiang Xianrou had no idea what was going on in her mind, it was a mess, her breathing was rapid and nervous, she didn't know how to answer.
She kept looking in Qiao Nian's direction.
The other person looked defiant and lazy, and seemed to have no intention of paying any attention to her.
Jiang Xianrou withdrew her gaze in humiliation, bit her lips tightly, her eyes wandering, and it felt like there were ten thousand ants crawling in her heart.
She quickly weighed the pros and cons, and despite the immense humiliation, she decided to admit it.
"We know each other…"
As soon as she finished speaking, the girl's lazy and casual voice sounded at the same time: "I don't know her."
Robert was listening to her at first, but as soon as Qiao Nian opened her mouth, his attention was immediately drawn to Qiao Nian, and he didn't hear clearly what Jiang Xianrou said.
"You don't know them?" Robert was not surprised. He nodded and explained, "I thought you knew them."
This "they" does not include Qi Yan.
But Qi Yan still felt embarrassed as if she had been slapped in the face.
Not to mention Jiang Xianrou, her face turned pale, and soon turned red. Her fingernails were about to pierce her palm, but she didn't feel any pain. She just felt that Qiao Nian's words "I don't know him" were like a slap in her face. Her face turned red and blue, and when she thought of the word "I know him" that she said at the same time, the humiliation doubled.
Qiao Nian did it on purpose!
Deliberately embarrass her!
Jiang Xianrou didn't want to say another word, she even wanted to leave here immediately.
But she didn't dare to leave. She had just come to the Pharmacy Association to report. In front of Zhong Yiliu, she didn't dare to act presumptuously...
Qiao Nian didn't look at Jiang Xianrou and Tang Wanru's reactions, and answered calmly again: "I don't know him."
Qi Yan curled the corners of her mouth. If nothing else, she felt embarrassed for the Jiang mother and daughter.
But she herself was quite embarrassed at the moment and had no time to feel embarrassed for others.
When Robert heard that she didn't know Jiang Xianrou and the others, he said "Oh" in disappointment, and his enthusiasm for Jiang Xianrou and the others obviously dropped.
But after thinking about it, he decided to give both sides a brief introduction.
"Let me introduce them to you! This is our new member of the Pharmacy Association, Jiang Xianrou. The one next to her is her mother. The other one is the Countess, whose last name is Qi. They are both from Country Z, just like you."
Robert immediately said to Qi Yan and the others, "This is the dean's friend, Q."
Zhong Yilu was not interested in these social matters. When he heard that Qiao Nian didn't know these people, he didn't have much patience and it was obvious that he was quite impatient.
Qi Yan had never been humiliated like this before, but she was much better at socializing than Jiang Xianrou and the others. She immediately put away her complicated feelings, smiled, and said, "Hello, Miss Qiao, it's our first meeting. Please take care of me in the future."
Qiao Nian had no intention of being polite to her and said coldly, "It's not like I'm taking care of you."
What this means is... not that familiar!
Qi Yan's smiling expression froze. She had never thought that Qiao Nian would be so merciless to her, so she endured it and didn't show it.
"Haha, Miss Qiao, you are too polite. You are young and promising, and we will need your care in many areas in the future."
