There was a man walking side by side with her. The man was wearing a casual suit and had an extremely pleasing appearance, with a clear and prominent bone structure.
Ye Wangchuan discovered them first.
He lowered his head and seemed to say something in the girl's ear.
Jiang Yao and Jiang Zongnan both saw the girl looking up at them from a distance, with no emotion in her eyes, and then she looked away.
Then the two men walked up to them and passed by them.
Qiao Nian didn't even say hello the whole time. He walked in an extremely arrogant and casual manner, and he didn't even glance at the two of them once.
All her actions seemed to be as if she just happened to meet two strangers who came to visit Mr. Jiang in the nursing home where he lived.
We are not familiar with each other, so there is no need to greet each other specifically.
"Qiao..." Jiang Yao felt as if he was slapped hard in the face. His whole body stiffened in an instant and he couldn't even call out the name that was on the tip of his tongue.
Jiang Zongnan also looked embarrassed. He knew in his heart that Qiao Nian was still indifferent to them because of the previous unpleasantness, but Jiang Xianrou had done things that even he, as a father, had nothing to say. He could only say dejectedly, "Let's go."
**
Jiang Weishang was indeed extremely surprised to see Qiao Nian and Ye Wangchuan coming back together, and he was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling the whole time.
Qiao Nian doesn't talk much.
After entering the ward, he dragged a chair and sat next to him to peel fruit for him. Most of the time, Ye Wangchuan was chatting with Jiang Weishang.
The two of them talked about everything under the sun.
Ye Wangchuan is knowledgeable and experienced.
No matter what topic Grandpa Jiang brought up, he would always chat with the old man for a few words, and every time he would hit the nail on the head, causing Grandpa Jiang to nod frequently, and look at him with more and more satisfaction.
Qiao Nian peeled the apple in her hand and handed it to Mr. Jiang, asking casually, "I just ran into my second uncle outside."
Jiang Weishang's smile faded a little, he frowned and looked over: "They didn't say anything to you."
"No." Seeing that he didn't take the apple, Qiao Nian turned around, took a plate, and put the peeled apple on it.
When she turned around again, her eyes were clear: "What happened?"
Jiang Weishang said in a bad tone: "Hey! It's nothing... It's just the group's business, it has nothing to do with you. You don't have to pay attention to them."
Qiao Nian didn't ask any more questions, and handed him the plate of apples, saying patiently, "Eat some fruit to supplement your vitamins. The doctor said you are deficient in vitamin E, so you should eat more fruit."
"Haha, you're the only one who likes to meddle in my affairs." Jiang Weishang said this, but he couldn't stop smiling. He obediently took the apple that Qiao Nian had peeled and ate it.
Qiao Nian leaned against the wall with her legs crossed, watching him eat fruit quietly. Her drooping eyelids hid her dark eyes, and no one knew what she was thinking.
Later, the doctor came to give Mr. Jiang daily training. Qiao Nian asked him about Mr. Jiang's health condition and sat with him for a while. When she saw that it was almost time, she stood up and prepared to leave.
…
Outside the ward.
Qiao Nian stopped only after making sure he was far enough away that Mr. Jiang couldn’t hear him. “Is the Jiang family in trouble?”
Ye Wangchuan came back with her.
But when Qiao Nian was talking to Jiang Weishang, he sent a message to ask people in the circle. At this moment, Ye Wangchuan followed the girl and stopped, put one hand in his trouser pocket, and said in a relaxed tone: "Jiang Group has taken a fancy to a piece of land and wants to develop it together with Hongwei Group, but the president of Hongwei Group refused to meet, so the joint development was delayed."
