"Pa pa pa." He was answered by a series of applause. The girl tilted her head back, revealing her fair and delicate face. Her chin was slightly raised. Her bright eyes stared at him, and she did not hesitate to praise him.
"well said."
Nie Tao's face suddenly turned red and his neck became thick, like a clown pushed onto the stage. He wanted to explode but was afraid of the person in front of him.
"Qiao Nian, what on earth do you want to do!"
The girl raised her eyes and looked at him with a surprised expression: "I wasn't listening to you. What did I do?"
She turned her head and looked at the guard tower beside her inquiringly.
Wei Lou raised the corners of his lips and gave her a satisfactory answer: "You didn't do anything. You just came in from outside, greeted people, and asked a few questions. Mr. Nie got angry and looked like he wanted to eat you. Tsk! He even brought up filial piety to pressure him. I don't know if you thought he was some kind of legitimate relative of yours."
… If they are not proper relatives, then they are unproper relatives, or people who are completely unrelated to you.
Qiao Nian propped her chin with her hand and nodded vaguely, as if she had heard it: "Oh, I also think I didn't do anything."
Nie Tao couldn't bear the humiliation and shouted angrily: "Qiao Nian!"
The girl instantly put away the smile on her face and glanced over with her dark eyes. Just like the light of a snowy night in the dead of winter, one glance was enough to freeze one's soul.
"Did I give you face?"
With just one sentence, Nie Tao's furious momentum was suppressed.
Nie Tao stiffened his neck, his face flushed, seemingly aggressive, but in fact he was weak and not to be feared: "Why did you have people detain us here? I've already said that your affairs have nothing to do with me, and I don't know what you are talking about. I need to go back to Country M to discuss business now!"
"Do you think I would come to you without any evidence?" Qiao Nian asked back.
Nie Tao was panicking, but he quickly sorted it out in his mind and felt that he could not have any evidence, so he answered confidently: "I said, I don't know! Release him immediately."
"Your country's laws require evidence. If you insist that I did it or that it has something to do with me, you can bring evidence to the police and ask them to arrest me."
"If you don't have evidence, don't waste everyone's time here. Let me go now. I need to catch a flight back."
"I have things to do at home. I'm not like you. I don't have any family and don't care about anyone. I still have to go back to take care of your great-grandfather."
Qiao Nian looked at him with deep wrinkles on his brow as he brought up the matter of Old Master Nie. She looked at him deeply for a few times, put her legs off the table, stood up, and walked up to him.
After what happened before, Nie Tao had already developed a psychological trauma towards the man in front of him, and was afraid of this "madman" in his heart.
He leaned back in fear the moment Qiao Nian approached. He didn't want to show his fear for the sake of face, so he gritted his teeth, lowered his voice, and hissed from the depths of his throat: "Qiao Nian, don't forget. You have the blood of the Nie family flowing in your body! You have already killed your grandmother, what else do you want? Do you want the entire Nie family to be buried with your mother, so that you will feel comfortable?"
"If you don't want to die, why do you come to provoke me?" The girl was not affected by his emotions at all, and was not led by him: "I said, as long as you don't provoke me, I won't care about you. But you keep coming to me again and again, giving me the opportunity to deal with you again and again..."
