1707 So You’re a Spare Tire?

Ji Nan’s expression was complicated. “Her name is Qiao Nian.”

“Qiao Nian. This girl has a nice name!” Xie Yun was in a good mood and praised her with a smile.

Ji Nan replied perfunctorily, “Yes, it sounds pretty good. She’s also good-looking.”

Xie Yun rebuked him, “You still know that she’s good-looking? Not bad, I thought you didn’t pay attention to these things.”

As she spoke, she thought for a moment and frowned. “But why does the name of your friend sound so familiar?”

Ji Nan looked at her and moved his lips. He really wanted to say, “You just mentioned her. How can it not be familiar?”

His mother looked at him in shock and asked in surprise before he could speak, “Your friend is the girl who had a conflict with Torre at the Paradise Hotel?!”

No wonder Xie Yun had such a big reaction.

Now, all the forces in the Independent Continent were focused on Qiao Nian!

She didn’t expect the person who caused such a huge commotion to be Ji Nan’s friend. She had just leisurely gone out for a meal with her son.

While Xie Yun was surprised, she couldn’t help but admire her in her heart. Instead, it washed away the surprise on her face.

“How did you meet?”

Xie Yun glanced at him again, adjusted her shawl, and walked to the sofa. She elegantly picked up the red teacup on the table and lowered her head to take a sip of black tea. Then, she put the cup down slightly and looked up at him.

There was even more curiosity in her eyes now. “I heard that she has always lived in Rao City and has never left the country. She lives a simple life at school and home.

“Logically speaking, you wouldn’t be able to come into contact with her. I’m puzzled. How did you two meet?”

Xie Yun understood her son.

Ji Nan was not the kind of person who would easily get along well with anyone.

He was always smiling and looked easy to get along with, but in fact, he was not easy to get along with at all.

There were so many people in the Ji family’s side branch, and many of them were about Ji Nan’s age. Xie Yun had never seen him get along well with anyone of them!

He was already so cold to his relatives. Xie Yun couldn’t imagine what charm Qiao Nian had to make Ji Nan so concerned about her.

“Did you just say she was beautiful?”

The young lady was beautiful, but she might not be able to catch her son’s eye with just beauty!

Xie Yun was halfway through her sentence when Ji Nan quickly stopped her. “Mom, stop!”

Xie Yun looked at him in confusion.

Ji Nan rubbed his temples. He helplessly walked to her side and put down his coat. He was tall and handsome as he looked up at her. “She has a boyfriend.”

Xie Yun was stunned for a second and blurted out, “So you’re a spare tire?”

Ji Nan was speechless.

Xie Yun looked at her son’s outstanding appearance and felt that he didn’t need to be someone else’s spare tire. She frowned. “Then you guys…”

Afraid of what she may say next, Ji Nan immediately explained, “We’re online friends.”

Xie Yun obviously didn’t believe him.

Ji Nan still didn’t understand how Qiao Nian was related to Bright Gate. He didn’t want to reveal too much, afraid that he would cause trouble for her.

He vaguely said to his mother, “Didn’t I tell you on the phone that we’ve been online friends for many years? Although we’ve only met once before, we hit it off at first sight. We’re considered friends in life.”

Afraid that his mother would misunderstand his relations.h.i.+p with Qiao Nian again, he added, “Also, my relations.h.i.+p with her isn’t what you think.”

Ji Nan found a precise way to define it.

“She’s… younger than me. I don’t know why I keep feeling that she’s like my younger sister. I can’t help but want to take care of her. If you have to insist… then she’s my younger sister!”
