As if Qiao Nian knew what he was going to say, she felt guilty for no reason. She looked over with dark pupils and made a rare defense: "I just came out of the shower and it's hot."
Ye Wangchuan still looked at her with a half-smile in his eyes.
Qiao Nian felt uncomfortable being stared at, so he coughed to divert attention and turned his head away: "I only drank a little."
It was rare for Ye Wangchuan to see her lower her head, so he didn't say anything else. He went inside to change the water to warm water for her and stuffed it back to her: "Drink something hot, so you don't get a stomachache."
"Hmm." Qiao Nian didn't comment, but didn't say she wanted to continue drinking the ice drink.
Seeing that they completely ignored him and ignored what he said before, Ji Nan asked Gu San speechlessly: "Are they always like this?"
Gu San looked at his eyes and nose, very calm and frank: "Mr. Ji, aren't you usually here too? Why are you asking me?"
Ji Nan instantly recalled the dog food he had eaten before, and was suddenly speechless, silently giving Gu San a thumbs up.
Gu San was not surprised at all. He played the role of background perfectly and was very experienced in it. He did not feel uncomfortable at all.
He was often ignored anyway.
He felt pretty good.
It's better than always forcing dog food on you.
Ji Nan did not have Gu San's good attitude. He saw Qiao Nian sitting on a high stool, holding a cup and drinking warm water intermittently.
He jumped back to the original topic.
"The Nie family's behavior this time was quite strange."
Seeing that none of Qiao Nian and the other two paid any attention to him.
Ji Nan continued, "They were still looking for my dad yesterday, and today they just left without any warning. I always feel like there's something fishy going on."
The three continued in silence.
Qiao Nian was so kind that she finally paid attention to him: "Why do you think so much? No matter why they come or why they leave, we just have to do our best. Can you ever finish taking care of them? The more you pay attention to some people, the more they will never stop!" Everyone in the Nie family, from Nie Qingru to the rest of the people, has this problem.
Only Jinan cares about what they think.
She looked at Ji Lingfeng and ignored him.
Those people from the Nie family wanted to leave. The fact that Ji Lingfeng opened the airspace to allow the Nie family's private plane to come in was enough to explain everything. Only Ji Nan was struggling here.
"If they want to leave, they can leave. It has nothing to do with me."
"That's right." Ji Nan's anxious heart was soothed when he heard her say that. Although Qiao Nian's attitude was not good, he calmed down all of a sudden.
He did not mention the Nie family's departure again, and instead thought of Guan Yan: "I heard that Guan Yan also plays stocks?"
Qiao Nian glanced at him calmly, probably trying to judge what he was thinking, and then said, "She has a boyfriend, at least they haven't broken up yet."
Ji Nan was stunned for a moment, then he burst into laughter and said, "What are you thinking about!"
He admitted that Guan Yan was quite different from the women he had met before. Beneath her beautiful appearance, her soul was even more moving.
But he only regarded Guan Yan as a good friend of his sister and did not have any bad intentions towards him.
A rabbit doesn't eat grass near its burrow.
He would never touch his sister's friends, so Ji Nan explained: "The Metaverse came out recently, and I just wanted to talk to her about it."
"I'm quite interested in this, and I want to talk to someone to see if there's any interest in investing with me."
"You also know that there are not many people in the Independent Continent who are involved in finance. The only few who are involved are all old guys. These old guys have a lot of things to do. I don't really want to have anything to do with them."
The metaverse is a recently emerging virtual world in which there are still virtual commodities such as real estate and currency.
