Martin frowned and subconsciously wanted to refuse.
After all, there are many people who want his contact information, but he doesn't give it to everyone.
He also doesn't like being bothered.
But when his gaze met the girl's extremely cold eyes, Martin paused, hesitated, and quickly agreed.
"sure."
Qiao Nian walked over and exchanged phone numbers with him.
Martin saved her phone number, said goodbye to her, and left.
…
"Why do you want his phone number?" Lu Zhi asked slowly after Martin left. His expression didn't show, but he didn't look very happy.
Qiao Nian didn't care whether he was happy or not. She turned back, looked at him, and said nonchalantly, "You asked me to come here just to introduce us to each other. It's normal for me to leave the other person's phone number."
It's normal indeed!
But this is not Qiao Nian's usual style.
No matter how deep Martin's background is, Qiao Nian is not the kind of person who would cling to power.
On the contrary, she would classify people like Martin as "troublesome", but Qiao Nian never likes trouble!
So her final action of asking Martin for his contact information seemed somewhat unusual.
Lu Zhi said nothing.
Qiao Nian packed up his things, walked up to him, looked at him again, and asked, "Why did you think of letting me meet Martin?"
Lu Zhi came back to his senses and returned to his usual smiling, harmless look: "There's no special reason."
He turned the wheelchair, lowered it, left the table, and said slowly, "I just want you to get to know more people and have more connections."
Qiao Nian looked at him deeply, raised his cap with his hand, and concealed his awkwardness in expressing his feelings: "Thank you."
Lu Zhi rarely heard the word "thank you" from her mouth, so he frowned but didn't ask: "When will you come back?" Qiao Nian leaned sideways, knowing that he was asking when she would return to the illegal area.
He lowered his eyes, thought seriously, and said, "I will consider it after I have found out the cause of my mother's death and finished the things I have on hand."
When Lu Zhi saw that she didn't take the matter to heart, he felt angry and didn't want to talk anymore.
Just then Qiao Nian's cell phone rang.
It was a call from Mo Dong.
Qiao Nian picked up the phone and said, "Hello."
Mo Dong had finished his work and called to ask her how long it would take her to leave. He then told her that he was waiting for her outside.
Qiao Nian also happened to be going back to check Martin's information, so he said to him, "I'll be right out."
When Lu Zhi heard that she was about to leave, he frowned and said, "You're leaving? Jian Jin, come over later, why don't you go to the bar with us for a drink?"
As soon as Qiao Nian hung up the phone, she heard Lu Zhi's words.
She put away her phone and said, "I've been running all day today and I'm a little tired. I want to go back and rest early, so I won't go."
Lu Zhi saw a layer of dark blue marks under her eyelids, which were indeed the marks left by not getting enough rest. He was silent for a moment and said, "Are you still taking your medicine?"
He was talking about sleeping pills.
Qiao Nian relied on the strong sleeping pills prescribed by Wei Lou to fall asleep for a long time while circling the city.
Lu Zhi suddenly mentioned the medicine.
She then remembered that she hadn't relied on sleeping pills for a long time.
Qiao Nian supported her chin with her hand and lowered her eyes, still wondering when she started to get rid of sleeping pills.
Lu Zhi changed the subject and said, "I will be back to the illegal area tomorrow morning at nine o'clock."
