A few days ago, she was still excited about becoming a member of the Pharmacy Association. She was full of expectations and thought that she could trample Qiao Nian under her feet and see another world.
Now, when she saw Robert reply to her with the words "ordinary member", Jiang Xianrou's heart sank to the bottom of the valley. She pinched her fingernails so hard that they dug deeply into her flesh.
It would be fine if Qiao Nian only knew Zhong Yilu, but if Qiao Nian had other connections with the Pharmacy Association, she... Jiang Xianrou couldn't accept it just by thinking about it.
Qiao Nian probably just happened to know Dean Zhong, so it’s impossible for him to have any other connection with the Pharmacy Association, right

The next day.
Qiao Nian got up early in the morning, went downstairs to check out, and then took a car to the airport to pick up the plane ticket.
Country M has only two flights to Capital International Airport every day.
She bought the earliest one.
The flight starts at 10am and lasts for 10 hours, arriving in Beijing around 7pm.
The weather in country M changes a lot. It is quite cold today.
Qiao Nian wore a denim jacket over her sweatshirt, with the hood pulled up, which looked quite warm. However, after arriving at the airport, she still bought a cup of hot drink and held it in her hands.
Because the plane was not due to take off in an hour, Qiao Nian was in no hurry to leave.
She found a seat and sat down.
Zhong Yiliu called.
Qiao Nian plugged in her earphones, her white fingertips slid across the phone screen, answered the call, and her voice was hoarse from just waking up: "Hello."
"Your flight this morning?" Zhong Yilu was still the same as before, speaking quickly and urgently, and doing everything in a hurry.
Qiao Nian looked up at the flight information above his head, tilted his head back, and replied lazily: "Ah, ten o'clock in the morning."
"Ten o'clock? Let me see what time it is now." Zhong Yilu probably checked the time and said after a while, "Only one hour left? Why didn't you tell me in advance? Wait for me, I'll come and take you there right away. Don't go through the security check yet."
People who pick up and drop off passengers can only be at the airport. If Qiao Nian goes through the security check, Zhong Yilu will not be able to enter.
It’s not that there’s no way to get in.
Considering the status of the Pharmacy Association in Country M and Zhong's status as the president of the First-Class Pharmacy Association, it would only take him a few minutes to find someone at the airport.
However, neither Zhong Yilu nor Qiao Nian are the kind of people who like to make trouble. They prefer to solve problems in a simple way.
Qiao Nian leaned casually on the rest seat at the airport, lowered her eyes and spoke to him in a low voice: "Don't bother, I'm leaving soon."
Zhong Yiliu put on his coat in the lab. When he heard the girl's words of dissuasion, a look of hesitation flashed across his face: "You came here, and I didn't even see you off..."
Qiao Nian thought it was nothing: "I'm in a hurry this time, maybe next time."
Zhong Yilu looked at the time and realized that he was indeed a bit rushed.
It would take at least half an hour to drive from the Pharmacy Association to the airport, and if he rushed there now, he might not be able to catch the drop-off.
In addition, Qiao Nian said that he was in a hurry, so he gave up the idea of seeing him off. Instead, he glanced at the things sent to him by other members of the Pharmacy Association on the computer. As if remembering something, he said to Qiao Nian, "By the way, the Pharmacy Association has a few new members this time, and one of them is from your country Z."
He thought of Qiao Nian who was there yesterday, and said in a gentle tone: "It's the one you saw yesterday, his name was...what was his name?"
Qiao Nian suppressed the wantonness in his eyes: "Jiang Xianrou."
"Oh, yes, that's the name." Zhong Yiliu said, "She wants to learn Chinese medicine. Do you want to take her with you?"
