Mo Xi didn't mind being ignored. He dragged the other person towards the sofa with a grin on his face while brainwashing him.
"Look, we are all family now, and we should not have different opinions. You have been in the Red Alliance for so long, so you must know something about Miss Qiao's past."
"Brother, come and have a chat. I'll get some information for our boss~"
**
In the study.
Qiao Nian didn't know yet that she had been pulled by Mo Xi and Ji Lin to talk about her past.
When she walked into the study, she saw Ye Wangchuan talking on the phone with his back to the door.
Qiao Nian didn't walk too close, but leaned against the wall and waited for him to finish his call.
During this time, she vaguely heard the words "Beijing City" and "go back", and she guessed that it was someone in Beijing City who was urging him to go back.
Ye Wangchuan quickly finished the call, put away his phone and turned around to go out.
As soon as she turned around and looked up, she saw the man who had been waiting for who knows how long. A fleeting light flashed in his dark eyes, and he walked over and stood in front of the girl, with a smile on his lips: "When did you come back? I didn't even notice..."
Qiao Nian was used to being in close contact with him, and she didn’t feel that they were too close. She raised her chin slightly and her eyes fell on the place where he was answering the phone.
"Well, just now, I didn't go over because you were on the phone."
Ye Wangchuan felt the stars fall into his eyes, and his brows relaxed. He did not miss the tiredness that was well hidden between her brows. He reached out and pushed away her black hair that was blocking her eyes.
"The conversation wasn't going well?"
He has a very nice voice.
This low tone became more and more seductive, as if it was speaking into someone's ear. The small feather fan tickled Qiao Nian's heartstrings.
A tingling electric current ran through Qiao Nian's cochlea. She straightened her legs slightly, changed her standing posture a little uncomfortably, and tried her best to suppress the strange feeling and walked inside.
"She didn't talk to me sincerely, and asked me to let him go right away."
She took two steps, put some distance between herself and the man, and turned around. Her eyes, as black as ink, were unruly and mocking.
"The reason given to me was that she is my grandmother and I should listen to her."
But there was no smile in Qiao Nian's eyes.
In fact, ever since she met Nie Qingru, that irritable and inescapable feeling has been following her.
It’s just that Qiao Nian was used to digesting his emotions alone, so he didn’t show them in front of Jian Jin and Guan Yan.
Mo Xi and Ji Lin couldn't see it even more.
She would only subconsciously relax herself in front of Ye Wangchuan, and those uncontrollable and violent emotions would be revealed.
Qiao Nian leaned back slightly against the desk, supporting herself on the edge with both hands. Her eyes were so dark that no light could be seen. "Sometimes I wonder if everyone is like this. The Qiao family is like this, and so is she."
They habitually use family ties to kidnap others, and no matter whether they are right or wrong, they always stand on the moral high ground and threaten others with their status as elders.
If something does not go as they wish, they will label you as unfilial or cold-blooded.
It seemed as if they were the only ones who had been wronged from beginning to end.
As long as the younger one talks back, he/she is always wrong and should be nailed to the moral pillar of shame.
But why
Everything Nie Qingru did...was there any one thing that an elder would do
Nie Qingru never even concealed her disgust and contempt.
Just like this, a person can stand in front of her and yell at her as if it is her right, using her status as a grandmother to put pressure on others.
Qiao Nian suppressed the rebelliousness that surged up in her heart and quickly returned to normal, saying, "I didn't agree to her request."
