2090 Everyone Is Waiting for Sister Nian to Return

Qiao Nian had just returned home when she received Shen Qingfeng’s call. Just as she stepped into the villa, her phone rang in her pocket.

Qiao Nian picked up the call. “h.e.l.lo.”

Gu San, Qin Si, Mo Dong, and Mo Xi were still waiting for news in the villa. At first glance, the girl came in as if nothing had happened.

Qin Si was the first to notice her. “Sister Qiao—”

He suddenly braked and swallowed what he wanted to say. It was mainly because Qin Si saw that she was on a call with someone.

After Qiao Nian entered, she glanced in his direction from the corner of her eye, but she wasn’t in a hurry to greet him.

Instead, along the way, she picked up a bottle of water on the table, unscrewed the cap, looked up, and took a sip unhurriedly. Then, she tilted her ear, as if listening to something. Her expression was a little lazy, and her emotions were unclear. “Huh? Your Grandma said that?”

Qin Si’s ears were p.r.i.c.ked, waiting for her to finish the call. Hearing this, he was stunned and couldn’t react for a long time.

Hadn’t Sister Qiao gone to look for the Ji family?

Why was she talking about an elder on the phone? Grandma? Whose Grandma?

Holding the mineral water bottle, Qiao Nian didn’t stand there for long. She lowered her gaze and seemed to think for a while. Then, she pursed her lips and said to the person on the other end of the call, “I understand. Thank her for me.”

She hung up not long after.

Qin Si couldn’t wait any longer. He immediately asked her, “Sister Qiao, who was that just now? Who were you talking to? Whose Grandma? Didn’t you go out—”

He held back the second half of his sentence.

Qiao Nian put her phone back into her pocket and took another casual sip of water. Then, she put down the bottle and leaned over to lean on the coffee table before answering lazily, “A friend. His Grandma was concerned about me. She’s an elder. Shouldn’t I thank her politely?”

“Of course, you should.”

Qin Si answered without thinking. He looked at her with a burning gaze, but he still couldn’t hold it in. “Sister Qiao, are… are you done with your task?”

Qiao Nian had returned so openly. There was a high chance that she had finished her business.

Qin Si wasn’t the only one who wanted to know the answer.

Gu San, Mo Dong, and Mo Xi also wanted to know the answer.

The Hacker Alliance and the technicians of Bright Gate had temporarily returned, but there were still many people in the living room. Hadn’t they been waiting for Qiao Nian’s safe return?

In addition, they also wanted to know how she would settle scores with the Ji family.

“Miss Qiao, have you seen Ji Hongyuan?” Mo Xi was more tactful than Qin Si, but in the end, he still wanted to know the outcome.

Qiao Nian was a little tired. She rubbed her temples, suppressing most of the frustration in her eyes. She looked calmer now. “I didn’t see him.”

She answered Mo Xi first.

Then, she turned to look at Qin Si, who was waiting for her answer. She pursed her lips, feeling a headache, but she still answered him, “It’s done.”

Qin Si was utterly stunned.

Uncle Jiang almost suffered an accident because of Ji Hongyuan’s men. She didn’t see Ji Hongyuan in person. How could she have finished her business?

He opened his mouth to ask.

However, the girl lowered the brim of her baseball cap. With one hand in her pocket, she turned around and walked upstairs. “I’m tired. I’ll go rest.”

Qin Si touched his earlobe and looked at her back as she went upstairs. In the end, he couldn’t bear to pester Qiao Nian.

He watched as the girl went up to the second floor. The door opened and closed upstairs. Then, the place fell silent.
