Chapter 2502 Sister Nian: Good Friends" Anniversary
"Got it." Although the person on the other end of the call did not know why he was suddenly interested in a luxury brand VIP card, he did not say much and directly got to work.
The Bluetooth earpiece in Ji Lin"s ear stopped blinking. He looked ahead, but his mind recalled all the things he had encountered with Qiao Nian along the way.
First, it was the entrance of the Pharmacy a.s.sociation.
Then, it was SEVEN"s VIP card.
Also, the staff"s serious expression.
He kept feeling that Master w.a.n.g"s girlfriend was a little more complex than he had imagined.

"You"re back?"
On the corridor outside of the hotel"s penthouse suite.
Qiao Nian was blocked by someone as soon as she came out of the elevator.
The man was leaning against the wall outside the elevator waiting for her. She walked out of the elevator first and then looked at him. "Have you been waiting for me?"
Ye w.a.n.gchuan was wearing the hotel"s white bathrobe. His collar was slightly open, revealing a beautiful neck. He had his hands in his pockets, lazy and casual, and a smile was on his lips. "Do you hope that I stayed here waiting for you to come back?"
These words…
Qiao Nian raised her eyebrows and walked towards the room.
Ye w.a.n.gchuan touched the bridge of his nose and followed. "Ji Lin sent me a message saying that he met you outside. I estimated the time and came out to wait for you. Did you go to the Pharmacy a.s.sociation again? Did you look for Zhong Yiliu?"
Qiao Nian took out her room card and swiped open the door, but she was not in a hurry to enter. Instead, she turned around and said, "No, I went to see a friend."
Ye w.a.n.gchuan"s eyes were clear and deep. He immediately understood who Qiao Nian had gone to see. "Lu Zhi"s people?"
Qiao Nian looked at his slightly cold eyes and knew that he was bothered about Lu Zhi. She initially did not want to explain, but she changed her mind now. "Not really. Jian Jin is also my friend. We"ve known each other for many years and have a life-and-death friends.h.i.+p…"
Ye w.a.n.gchuan did not speak.
… Another life-and-death friends.h.i.+p.
Qiao Nian seemed to know what he was thinking. "… Didn"t I tell you about my childhood? She"s also one of those children."
Ye w.a.n.gchuan recalled the kidnapping incident that she had mentioned to him when she was young. The slight depression in his heart was instantly defeated by frustration.
He rubbed the s.p.a.ce between his eyebrows. In a tone that sounded like surrender, he changed the topic. "There"s an auction tonight. Are you going?"
"Hm?"
Qiao Nian looked down at the two bags. She was still thinking about how to give him the gift, so she did not pay much attention to his words.
"What auction?"
Ye w.a.n.gchuan also saw the bags she was carrying and said with a distracted expression, "It"s just an underground auction. It"s similar to an auction in the independent continent. Anyway, there"s nothing to do. Why don"t we go take a look tonight? Just treat it as fun."
Qiao Nian thought about it. She did not have any plans for tonight, so she nodded and agreed casually. "Alright!"
Then, she glanced sideways at the man who was blocking her door and unwilling to leave. She pursed her lips and generously handed him the gift. "I went to the mall and saw a cufflink that suits you, so I bought it. Here, for you."
"You bought it for me?" Ye w.a.n.gchuan looked down at the bag with a smile. Then, he looked at the girl deeply and said in a low and hoa.r.s.e voice, "G.o.ddess Qiao, why did you think of buying me a gift? What day is it today?"
Qiao Nian had already pushed open the door. Hearing this, she turned around and looked at him with impatience. "Good friends" anniversary?"
Ye w.a.n.gchuan suddenly remembered how he had casually teased her about being a "good friend" back then. He was instantly speechless, but the corners of his mouth were lifted for a long time.
