But the question now is…
"I can't tell anyone my identity yet."
Moody knew she would say that, so he said, "I can come forward."
Elena looked at him, seemingly pondering the meaning of his words.
Moody said directly: "I just happened to come to Beijing City for business. You can do what you want in the name of my sister..."
Elena just frowned, and then she heard him say: "I will hold a special banquet to introduce you out. This way, it will be much more convenient for you to do anything."
Elena probably guessed what he wanted to do, rubbed her brows, and didn't say she agreed or disagreed, but just asked him: "Will it cause you trouble?"
Moody looked at her with eyes full of pity: "Don't worry, just like you said, my family situation is better than yours. It's just a small favor. My dad would only say a few words to me if he knew about it. It won't be a big deal..."
Elena raised her face and said to him seriously: "Thank you."
Moody had the urge to stand in front of her and block all the storms for himself.
But he took all of this in. On the surface, he still cooperated with Elena and treated her as a close friend. He nodded and said, "There's no need to talk about this between the two of us."
Elena rubbed the body of the goblet with her fingertips, lowered her head, and half of her face was shrouded in shadow, making it difficult to tell what she was thinking.
Moody just thought that she was hurt by the unpleasantness during this period, and felt even more distressed about her experience. He secretly made up his mind to help her out.

Qiao Nian arrived at the airport two hours in advance and did not ask Grandpa Ye and others to pick her up. She went directly back to Rhine with Ye Wangchuan and Gu San.
She didn't sleep well, especially on planes.
It looked like she slept for more than ten hours and never woke up, but in fact, she slept very poorly and was just too lazy to get up and take off her eye mask.
When he arrived at his own territory, Qiao Nian immediately went back to his room to take a shower, changed into new clothes, and felt refreshed before going down from the second floor.
When she went downstairs, Qin Si and Zhang Yang had already arrived.
As soon as Qin Si saw her, he excitedly waved his hand: "Sister Qiao, here."
When Qiao Nian saw him, he felt his ears hurt from the noise and walked towards him.
Zhang Yang stood up politely: "Ms. Qiao, long time no see."
"Long time no see." Qiao Nian was good-tempered, but a little lazy. He went straight to the sofa and curled up on it.
Gu San brought out a fruit plate from the kitchen, and saw Qiao Nian coming down. He made her a cup of fresh tea and placed it on the coffee table in front of the girl.
Qin Sigang asked, "Sister Qiao, what do you want to eat tonight? I'll treat you."
The next second, the screen of his mobile phone, which he had casually placed on the coffee table when he entered the room, lit up. Qin Si bent down to pick it up and took a casual look at it.
The man who was originally slacking off suddenly sat up straight, his brows furrowed. "Fuck, what does he mean?"
His voice attracted the attention of other people in the living room.
Qiao Nian just picked up the teacup and drank the tea slowly, not caring much. His half-closed eyes showed his sleepiness.
Zhang Yang was more concerned and immediately came over to ask, "Mr. Qin, what's wrong?"
Qin Si handed him the phone and looked at it with an unpleasant expression: "Look at the message I received."
Zhang Yang took a look and saw only a text message with an invitation letter attached, inviting Qin Si to attend a family dinner the day after tomorrow and to introduce his sister to everyone.
This time coincides with Qiao Nian's birthday party, which is held on the same day. (End of this chapter)
