Ye w.a.n.gchuan took the opportunity to pour him a gla.s.s of wine and toast him, then continued to tell him some interesting stories about Qiao Nian’s time in Rao City.
The tension in the private room disappeared.
Qiao Nian watched as a certain someone coaxed her father into a daze with just a few words. She drank one gla.s.s after another with him. The corners of her mouth twitched. She placed her hand on the dining table and tapped twice, then picked up her chopsticks again and did not disturb them. Letting them chat, she lowered her head to continue eating.
She ate without being pretentious.
She would eat and drink what she wanted, and would not bother to restrain herself just because she was out.
!!
Qiao Nian enjoyed the meal to her heart’s content. After finis.h.i.+ng the plate of spicy chicken in front of her, she slowly put down her chopsticks.
Seeing that the two of them were still drinking, she raised her hand and pulled down the brim of her cap. “Are you done eating?” she asked rather irritably. “It’s almost time to go back.”
She had a design to draw tonight.
Aunt Yuan was waiting for her to hand in her draft.
It would be almost 10 PM when she arrived home. She would take another shower. If everything went well, she could sleep at one o’clock. Otherwise, she might have to stay up late again.
Qiao Nian had been staying up late recently and had not had a good night’s sleep in a long time. She wanted to sleep early tonight.
“Dad, let’s go.”
Jiang Zongjin’s fair face was flushed from drinking. It was rare for him to be so happy. However, since Qiao Nian called him, he immediately stopped drinking. He put down the cup and said to Ye w.a.n.gchuan, “Let’s meet again next time.”
“Okay.”
The man looked quite normal. He had also drunk a lot of white wine, but it did not show on his face. His handsome face did not look abnormal at all. If it weren’t for the pinkish skin that was revealed from the side of the collar of his s.h.i.+rt, he would have looked like nothing had happened. “Uncle Jiang, let’s exchange numbers.”
Jiang Zongjin thought of his relations.h.i.+p with Qiao Nian and felt a little startled. However, his nature made him admire the young man in front of him very much. After a short hesitation, he exchanged numbers with Ye w.a.n.gchuan.
Gu San sent Jiang Zongjin back to the school dormitory near Qing University before driving back to Rhine Apartments.
As soon as she got home, Qiao Nian changed into her slippers and said succinctly, “I still have something to do. I’ll go back to my room first.”
Ye w.a.n.gchuan nodded. “Go ahead. I’ll make you a cup of tea later. What tea do you want?”
Qiao Nian glanced at him lazily. “I’ll drink plain water. Just get my bottle of mineral water.” Ye w.a.n.gchuan smiled, his eyes filled with affection. “Okay.”
She went up.
Only then did the man put away the gentleness in his eyes. He narrowed his eyes and walked towards the living room. As he walked, he said in a low and hoa.r.s.e voice, “I heard that Jiang Xianrou went to the Ninth Branch today and pa.s.sed Master Cheng’s laboratory’s recruitment trial? Who pa.s.sed her?”
Gu San followed behind him and thought for a moment before answering, “I think it’s… Young Master Bo.”
He immediately explained, “Young Master Bo doesn’t know about the grudge between Miss Jiang and Miss Qiao. He thought that Miss Jiang was the same as before.”
In the past, Jiang Xianrou was the center of attention in their small circle. It wasn’t that she was of the highest status, but she was the only girl and Jiang Li’s sister. The others more or less took care of her.
Bo Jingxing did the same.
“Mm.” Ye w.a.n.gchuan hummed. His voice was calm and emotionless. “Tell Bo Jingxing to remove Jiang Xianrou from the recruitment list.”
