However, things did not go as smoothly as Nie Qingru had planned.
After they arrived at the hospital, they were forcibly stopped and told that they had to ask the old couple of the Jin family whether they were willing to see them before they were allowed to visit the ward.
"Do you know who I am? How dare you talk to me like that?" Nie Tao was so angry that he wanted to step forward to argue.
"Alright." Nie Qingru recognized the person who stopped them at a glance, raised his hand to block Nie Tao, and said calmly: "We'll wait outside."
"Qingru?!" Nie Tao looked at her in surprise, his brows furrowed and his eyes confused, as if he didn't understand why she was so compromising.
Nie Qingru didn't even look at him and walked straight to the outside of the corridor to wait for the person inside to respond.
Fortunately, the people inside didn't make them wait too long.
Nie Tao suppressed his anger and saw the young man who had stopped them before came out of the ward. He walked up to them and said in a gentle manner: "I'm sorry, the patient doesn't want to see you. Please go back."
"You!" Nie Tao's forehead veins bulged and he tried to force his way in.
The young man refused to budge, and once again opened his arms to block him, with a smile that did not reach his eyes: "Mr. Nie, are you here to cause trouble?"
"I'm here to apologize to Mr. Jin on behalf of my son!" Nie Tao gritted his teeth.
The young man showed an expression of sudden enlightenment, and then said in a mocking tone: "Oh, seeing Mr. Nie's attitude, I thought you were here to cause trouble."
"After all, this is the first time I've seen someone apologize so arrogantly."
If Nie Tao didn't hear the sarcasm in the first half of his sentence, he could still hear the obvious sarcasm in the second half.
His face suddenly turned extremely ugly. He clenched his fists and stared at the young man standing in front of him, as if he would attack him at any time.
Until Nie Qingru called his name again: "Nie Tao, don't forget what you promised me. If you can't do it, go back."
A very calm tone.
There was a rage of thunder underneath.
Nie Tao's whole body stiffened. He slowly forced himself to turn around, returned to Nie Qingru without saying a word, and stopped arguing with others.
"I haven't forgotten what I promised you."
"That's good."
Nie Qingru had no expression on her face and turned to look at the young man who was still there.
The young man was probably in his early twenties. He wore a suit vest over his shirt with the vest buttons buttoned, outlining his good figure with broad shoulders and narrow waist. He looked elegant and always had a faint smile on the corners of his lips. He was very amiable, like a businessman.
Nie Qingru recognized him: "Ji Lin."
Ji Lin finally showed a hint of surprise, as if he did not expect that the Queen, who was so busy with all kinds of affairs, would know his name.
However, he reacted quickly, nodded slightly, and said very gentlemanly: "Does Her Majesty have any instructions?"
This is equivalent to telling Nie Qingru.
He also knew her identity.
We are still standing at the same starting point.
Nie Qingru didn't care about these details. She cast a sharp gaze on him and said concisely, "Who asked you to come? The one from Beijing or...Qiao Nian?"
The two words "Qiao Nian" came out of her mouth with undisguised disgust, as if they had dirty her mouth, and she even frowned involuntarily.
She rarely showed her emotions, so that moment of uncontrollable disgust and resentment was particularly noticeable.
Who is this annoying
Ji Lin looked at her reaction at that moment, and the faint smile on the corner of his lips faded.
