It was already one o’clock in the afternoon.

Elder Xue still had to visit the Ji family.

After leaving the Seaview Pavilion, he said goodbye to Qiao Nian before going on his way.

Qiao Nian also returned to the research inst.i.tute.

Coincidentally, she received a video call from Old Master Jiang. She found a corner at the stairs and picked it up. Old Master Jiangs face quickly appeared on the screen.

“Nian Nian, have you eaten?”

Old Master Jiang was as loving as ever. He looked good, a little better than before. He was sitting in a wheelchair and being pushed by a nurse into the garden of the sanatorium. Seeing Qiao Nian, he was all smiles, and his eyes lit up.

“Why haven’t you eaten yet?”

Jiang Weishangs sharp eyes noticed the stairs. He frowned and worriedly said, ‘You must remember to eat on time. Don’t be so busy that you don’t even have time to eat. It’s fine that you’re young now, but what will happen when you’ve become old?”

“I’ve already eaten. 1 just came back from outside.” Qiao Nian was good-tempered. She did not complain and even explained herself.

Old Master Jiang did not sav anything else. He looked at her young face and asked, “Nian Nian, when are you coming back? Are you still busy with your matters in Rao City?”

Until now, Old Master Jiang still did not know that she was not in Rao City.

“Huh?” Qiao Nian did not know what to say. She quickly supported her forehead with her hand and smiled. “Soon.’

Her progress in the experiment was very fast. She had almost figured out what Ji Qing was researching back then.

It would not be long now.

Old Master Jiang was reluctant. “You’re still busy…”

Qiao Nian replied softly, “Yes.”

Old Master Jiang quickly perked up. “By the way, Jiang Yao told me that Tian

Chen wants him back. He didn’t agree for now. Nian Nian, is this your idea?”

Ever since the last time, everyone in the family knew that Qiao Nian and Lu Zhi were life-and-death friends. Tian Chen was also Lu Zhi’s territory.

Tian Chen had come knocking on his door for no reason and wanted Jiang Yao to go back.

Everyone felt that Qiao Nian was behind this.

Jiang Yao temporarily rejected Tian Chen, but he still told Old Master Jiang about it. “Why did you suddenly think of asking him to go back? Do you want his help?”

Old Master Jiang was still confused by Tian Chen’s actions. He could not understand the twists and turns. Just in case, he simply video-called Qiao Nian to ask.

Qiao Nian did not expect Lu Zhi to ask Jiang Yao to return to Tian Chen. Her bright eyes were covered in a layer of frost, and her gaze was dry. She pursed her lips and said, “It wasn’t me.”

Old Master Jiang was even more puzzled now.

Qiao Niao could not explain it clearly and only said, “Don’t bother with Lu Zhi and Tian Chen for now. I had a conflict with him. Tell me if he looks for you.

I’ll handle it.”

Seeing that she was in a bad mood, Old Master Jiang was considerate and did not continue asking. He nodded and said solemnly, “Don’t worry, I’ll tell Jiang Yao.”

“… Jiang Yao also felt that this matter was a little sudden, so he didn’t agree right away.” Old Master Jiang was very satisfied with Jiang Yao’s handling of this matter. At least he had considered Qiao Nian and knew his duty as a brother.

“You have to take good care of yourself outside…”

He reminded the girl to be careful outside and wear more clothes so that she would not catch a cold and fall sick. Only then did he hang up.

Still worried about the matter with Lu Zhi, Old Master Jiang sat under the tree for a while and then, after some hesitation, called Ye w.a.n.gchuan..
