Mo Xi frowned when he heard his words, and repeatedly used his eyes to signal him to speak properly.
But Ji Lin was a straightforward person and didn't notice the looks he kept throwing at her. He stared at Qiao Nian with a sharp gaze, demanding an answer.
Qiao Nian raised his head and took another sip of Coke, and was about to put the can down carelessly.
"Ding ding." At this moment her cell phone suddenly rang.
Qiao Nian casually put the Coke on the table, raised his eyelids slightly and said to Ji Lin: "Sorry, I have to take a call."
She said as she stood up and walked outside.
Ji Lin and Mo Xi moved aside to make way.
Qiao Nian went out first along the path they made way for.
Wait until she goes out.
Mo Xi frowned and pushed Ji Lin on the shoulder: "What did you just do? What did you say? Can't you just speak properly?"
Ji Lin didn't think he was wrong: "I was speaking properly the whole time, and I didn't say anything wrong."
"Oh, you!" Mo Xi shook his head and didn't want to say anything about him.
He turned sideways and said solemnly, "That Nie Qixing is not worth our trouble. Miss Qiao wants to go to his birthday party, so I must ask clearly."
Finally.
He also said to Mo Xi: "You are not one of us, you don't understand the situation in Country M. It's very difficult to get a place in Nie Qixing's birthday party!"
"I am also asking Miss Qiao more out of serious consideration."
Mo Xi was speechless for a while, and waved his hands to beg for mercy, but his face was not happy, and he said unhappily: "Okay, what you said makes sense. Anyway, remember what you said today, and don't ask Miss Qiao for help in the future!"
Wasn't Mo Dong the same character at the beginning
They have been following Wang Ye for many years and think they have seen people and things, so they have developed a character that is arrogant when encountering things.
Anyway... just don't slap yourself in the face, Ji Lin!
Seeing that he was speaking in a sarcastic tone, Ji Lin also frowned and turned away, ignoring him.
… Outside.
Qiao Nian was unaware of the dispute in the room.
She just picked up the phone and heard the elegant and polite voice of the man on the other end of the phone asking her: "I just received the express delivery."
"Excuse me for calling you."
"Miss Qiao, did you send the wrong person?"
Qiao Nian half-lowered her eyelashes, leaning against the wall at the emergency staircase in the hotel corridor, listening to the voice of a well-educated man. She didn't know what she remembered, and a trace of sarcasm flashed across her eyes. The corners of her mouth curled up, and she sneered softly: "No, it's a gift for you."
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a few seconds.
"I don't seem to know you?" Nie Qixing still had the same elegant attitude, but his tone was tighter and sounded much more cautious.
Qiao Nian ignored his temptation and said, "It's enough for me to know you."
Nie Qixing was silent for a long time again, narrowing his eyes slightly with a dangerous look as he was thinking about where Qiao Nian came from.
The girl continued in a casual tone: "I have seen your article on atomic energy in the journal Nature, and I really want to make friends with Professor Nie."
"Have you read the article in Nature?" Nie Qixing obviously relaxed his guard.
"kindness."
Qiao Nian responded in a rather casual tone: "That painting is my gift to you. I hope Professor Nie likes it."
…
In a villa in the city center.
Nie Qixing untied the tie at his collar, loosened his neck, and breathed much easier.
The servant quietly approached him at this time, and seeing him on the phone, he asked cautiously: "Master Qi, do you want to check this person?"
"… "
Nie Qixing gave him a cold look.
Didn't he see he was on the phone?!
