When the car arrived at the city center.
Qiao Nian half-rolled down the window to look outside, then said to Gu San, "Stop the car."
Gu San didn't understand what was going on and still parked the car on the side of the road.
Qiao Nian waited for the car to stop, unbuckled his seat belt, picked up his cell phone and was about to get out.
When Qin Si saw that she was about to get off the car, he stuck his head out to look at the sky outside and said with some concern: "Sister Qiao, aren't you going back with us?"
Qiao Nian had already gotten out of the car, closed the door, put on his cap, lowered the brim, put his hands in his pockets, and said casually, "You guys go back first. A friend asked me to meet him nearby."
Ye Wangchuan watched the girl close the car door, and thought of someone, so he asked her: "How long do you want to talk? I'll wait for you here."
Qiao Nian looked back at the place where she and Lu Zhi had agreed to meet, then turned her head and looked at him with her black and white eyes: "Not necessarily."
"Don't wait for me, go back first, I will go back by myself."
Qin Si and Gu San were both worried and looked at the young man in the car: "Master Wang, let's wait for Miss Qiao. Anyway, we have nothing to do when we go back, so there is no rush to go back..."
Ye Wangchuan did not insist on following them, and said generously: "Mo Dong and his men are doing some work nearby. When you are done, you can send him a message and ask him to take you back."
Qiao Nian was going to meet Lu Zhi, and it was not convenient for her to bring them along. Seeing that Ye Wangchuan was not going to follow her, she breathed a sigh of relief and gave him an 'OK' gesture.
He looked at Qin Si and the others again, said hello, and said, "Let's go."
Girls are always quick and decisive in doing things. After saying hello to the people in the car, she turned around and walked towards the sidewalk.
Qin Si looked at the girl's back as she walked away, then glanced at the man who was sitting there motionless. He couldn't help but say something more, "Master Wang, Sister Qiao has to meet her friends at this time, aren't you worried..."
He wanted to say, 'Aren't you worried that this friend might be interested in Sister Qiao?'
But before he could finish his words, Ye Wangchuan gave him a sidelong glance, and Qin Si immediately shut his mouth.
Woo woo, he was just talking casually. If you have the guts to glare at him, go glare at Sister Qiao!
Ye Wangchuan rolled down the car window and placed his arm halfway on it. His facial features were particularly outstanding under the light, with a high nose bridge and attractive lips.
The young man still had a lazy expression, and didn't seem to be worried. He told Gu San: "Let's go, drive back."
Gu San looked at the girl who was gradually disappearing at the other end of the sidewalk. He didn't dare to say anything more. He just responded, stepped on the accelerator, and drove away from the city center.
…
In a restaurant in the city center, the sound of the piano is melodious.
In the light luxury restaurant, all the waiters are wearing uniform suits and standing straight, which shows that the style here is extraordinary.
It's just strange that in a restaurant like this, there are few customers at 9 o'clock in the evening when it opens.
Looking at the entire restaurant, there were only two guests sitting by the window, and they seemed to be having a pleasant conversation.
"The taste of this private restaurant is still as impressive as ever. I thought I must come here to eat when I came to Independence Island this time, but I didn't expect you to invite me."
The speaker was a foreign man in his thirties but not yet forty.
The man had a typical Nordic appearance, with three-dimensional facial features and relatively thick hair. His thick beard was neatly trimmed, and he looked very clean. He did not look sloppy at all, but instead had the unruly air of a Nordic gentleman.
