In the living room.
Everyone was looking at her.
Qiao Nian walked straight to the sofa, found a corner seat and sat down lazily, opened the can of Coke, tilted his head back and drank half of it.
Ji Lin learned his lesson this time.
He saw Qiao Nian asking Nie Qixing, "He has tried to get the news out through many connections since this morning but to no avail. There is no news for the time being."
Qiao Nian sat on the sofa, rubbing the can of Coke carelessly with his fingertips, and gently shook the can of Coke in his hand: "Give up so soon?"
Mo Xi took over Gu San's job perfectly and made a cup of coffee for everyone.
He first gave a cup to Guan Yan, who was sitting with his legs crossed and looking very charming, then turned around and gave a cup to Ji Lin as well, and kept one cup for himself. He intended to take the last cup to the study.
Ji Lin was not in the mood to drink coffee. He stirred the cup with a spoon, frowned, and said, "I also think he gave up too quickly. It's a bit abnormal."
Before Mo Xi was about to deliver the last cup of coffee to the study, he turned around and asked the girl who was sitting comfortably on the sofa: "Hey~ Miss Qiao, do you want some coffee?"
Qiao Nian raised her eyes slightly, but before she could react, she still held the can in her hand, and heard him continue, "If you want, I'll make you another cup, you drink this first."
He spoke in such a natural manner and at such a brisk and fluent pace that Ji Lin and Guan Yan both looked over.
Guan Yan was a little surprised and almost blurted out: Isn’t Young Master Ye your boss
Ji Lin was obviously used to Mo Xi's behavior. It was no longer surprising to him. He looked calm and looked away after taking a glance.
Qiao Nian finally reacted and raised the Coke in his hand: "I still have some."
Mo Xi nodded readily and walked towards the study: "Then I'll give this to Master Wang."
Guan Yan gave Qiao Nian a thumbs up from behind and mouthed, "Awesome!"
Qiao Nian glanced at her funny expression and simply ignored it. Just as he was about to get up and go upstairs, he received a call. *
ten minutes later.
She appeared downstairs.
There was a Land Rover Range Rover parked on the side of the road, and the lush branches of the sycamore tree cast spots of sunlight on the car body.
The person in the car seemed to see her, opened the door and got out.
Qiao Nian came down alone. Seeing this, he pulled down his cap and walked over: "What a coincidence, we meet again."
When Shadow saw her again, he no longer looked down on her as before. He put himself in a proper position and greeted her politely, "Miss Qiao."
"Tsk." Qiao Nian stood lazily in front of him, not buying into his tricks. She raised her eyelids slightly, her eyes cold and silent, staring at him steadily: "Let's not beat around the bush. Let's be frank. You came to me because of Nie Qixing's matter, right?"
Shadow rarely gets suppressed by others, so he pursed his lips slightly and said, "Yes."
He was also very straightforward: "Miss Qiao can put forward any conditions, such as the whereabouts of Ji Lingfeng."
He thought Qiao Nian must want to know this and had already made up his mind before coming.
Who knew that the girl didn't respond at all, and smiled: "Don't worry about this."
Shadow took a deep breath and tried to look calmer: "So what conditions does Miss Qiao want to propose?"
"Who is Nie Qixing?" Qiao Nian asked him back.
Shadow's expression immediately became unnatural, his eyes began to flicker, and he no longer looked at her: "Sorry, no comment!"
"Okay." Qiao Nian nodded, with no intention of forcing him at all, and turned around to walk back.
