Chapter 3244: Direct Confrontation

Editor: Atlas Studios

If it weren’t for Master Auburn, Nie Qingru would have crushed this girl to death without hesitation just based on what she said. However, for Nie Qixing’s sake, she endured it with all her might. “Does your Auburn family like this kind of performance art?”

This question was very sharp.

Daisy immediately retracted her gaze and shook her head frankly. “No, we don’t.”

Nie Qingru’s temples throbbed fiercely again. Afraid she would be angered to death, she stood up and said to the two of them, “I’m going out to wash my hands.”

With Shadow in the room, Nie Qingru felt more at ease leaving.

After leaving the private room, she felt like she had breathed fresh air. Her expression softened slightly, but her mood was not much better.

She had originally wanted to matchmake them, but based on Daisy’s performance tonight, she had given up on that idea.

This Daisy was indeed Mr. Auburn’s favorite granddaughter. However, Nie Qingru’s evaluation of her at this moment was not only mediocre, but there was also a hint of disgust, blindness, and low EQ.

She wanted to find a powerful ally for Nie Qixing.

But this Daisy…

As Nie Qingru walked towards the washroom, deep in thought about how to get Nie Qixing close to Mr. Auburn through Daisy, she b.u.mped into someone.

“I’m sorry.” The other party dodged quickly and spoke in a low and hoa.r.s.e voice.

However, Nie Qingru was very familiar with this voice. She looked at the person and saw a face she had been dreaming about recently.

“Qiao Nian?”

Nie Qingru did not expect to b.u.mp into her here. Her already bad mood was instantly covered in a layer of gloom.

Especially when she saw the girl’s face that looked a little similar to someone else’s, disgust surged from the bottom of her heart, and she had the urge to strangle her.

“Why are you here?” Since she did not like it, Nie Qingru’s tone was also bad.

She spoke in a high and mighty tone, as if this was her territory and Qiao Nian needed her permission to be there.

Since she was so tactless, the girl had no intention of spoiling her.

After seeing clearly who she had b.u.mped into, the girl only raised her eyebrows in surprise. Then, her gaze turned calm. “I can go wherever I want. In addition, since I’ve already come to Continent M, there will be many accidental encounters like this in the future.” Her tone was slightly raised, full of arrogance and carelessness. “If there’s no need, I hope the Empress can pretend not to see me. Don’t greet me, lest others misunderstand.”

Actually, it would have been better if she had not said this. Nie Qingru had originally thought so and did not want anyone to know about their relations.h.i.+p.

However, Nie Qingru’s face darkened since Qiao Nian was the one who said this. She gritted her teeth and reminded her, “I’m your grandmother!”

However, the girl only picked her ears and glanced at her impatiently. “Keep your voice down. Be careful not to be heard.”

People were indeed pa.s.sing by here. If one was not careful, they would be heard.

However, Nie Qingru did not feel like she was being cared for. There was only a strong sense of… provocation.

She was the one who should be conscious about being a.s.sociated with someone like Qiao Nian.

She had not even brought that up.

And Qiao Nian had the audacity!

“Let’s part here.” Before she could figure it out, the girl waved her hand and left without looking back.
