I couldn't help but whispered, "Sun, don't push yourself too hard. Even if you don't tell me, I know roughly what you are talking about. Anyway, if you need help, just tell me. Don't worry, I can protect myself."
Qiao Nian just slid the screen and solved a lot of blocks at once. Hearing this, he raised his head slightly, his clear eyes fell on her, and suddenly softened. He didn't say anything touching, just softly: "Yeah."
Thousands of words, all unsaid!
Guan Yan smiled, knowing that she had listened to him, and stopped talking about this heavy topic. Instead, he talked about what he had done in the Independent Island in the past few days.
Qiao Nian played games while listening to her, responding occasionally. Then he remembered that he seemed to have not told someone that he was going to have dinner out in the evening.
She quit the game again and sent a WeChat message to Ye Wangchuan, telling him that she was with Guan Yan and would be back later, so he didn't need to wait for her for dinner.
Then switch back to the game and continue to the next level.
Guan Yan saw this action clearly. She ate it silently without saying it out loud or asking again.

At the same time, in Continent M.
After receiving David's reply, Nie Tao went to find Nie Qingru.
His car stopped under the Smith Bank Building. He hurried in and took Nie Qingru's exclusive elevator directly to the first floor of the president's office.
The banking system was extremely busy, not to mention Smith Bank, which was the financial hub of Continent M. Everyone was busy answering calls and handling their work.
At this critical moment, the elevator door opened.
The scene where Nie Tao ignored his assistant's obstruction and forced his way in to see Nie Qingru was seen by everyone.
Everyone exchanged glances, and saw the usual contempt in each other's eyes. Some people quickly hid in the tea room to report the excitement here to familiar shareholders.
…
Inside the office, Nie Qingru was on a video call with an overseas partner.
There was a bang in front of the glass door.
Nie Tao rushed in from outside.
Also coming in was his assistant who was following him anxiously, and it seemed that he was not stopped.
Nie Qingru's face suddenly darkened, and he cut off the video call, and forcefully questioned the intruder: "Who let you in?"
Nie Tao was startled by his eyes, and then he felt dissatisfied. However, due to Nie Qingru's power, he could only force himself to shout: "Qingru, I have something urgent to talk to you about."
Nie Qingru's forehead was throbbing with veins, and he pointed at the door: "Get out."
Nie Tao looked unhappy. He stood still, pinching his palms and said with a heavy heart, "I really have something urgent to talk to you about. My father asked me to come."
Yingzi quickly poured a glass of water for Nie Qingru and gently handed it to her, signaling her not to get sick from anger.
He raised his head and looked directly at Nie Tao, saying in a not-so-polite tone: "Mr. Nie, you should also learn to understand the Queen's situation. How will those people outside view the Queen if you barge in so rashly?"
"Who do you think you are?" Nie Tao asked back, unable to suppress his anger.
“Bang!”
Nie Qingru slammed the table, locked eyes with him, and said sternly, "If you have something to say, just say it. If you can't say it, get out of here."
Nie Tao's chest was heaving violently. He walked to the sofa and sat down. He glared at Shadow fiercely, then spoke to Nie Qingru unwillingly, "What's going on between you and Qiao Nian?"
When Nie Qingru heard the name, she got a migraine reflexively, and her nerves were tense: "Why are you mentioning her all of a sudden?"
