His question was inexplicably provocative.
Qiao Nian was in a daze for a moment. Soon, she came back to her senses and did not look at him. “…Not really.”
However, the next sentence was—The question is, why are you looking for me?
Ye w.a.n.gchuan didn’t give her a chance to say anything else. He picked up the red wine and took a sip. His deep eyes seemed able to suck her in. He whispered, “I heard from Gu San that after you performed acupuncture on Master Cheng, he became much better. You even gave him a bottle of medicine.”
For the first time, Qiao Nian realized that Gu San was actually quite talkative. He even had the same problem as Jiang Li. He had a broken mouth and couldn’t hide anything.
As soon as she dried her hair, she threw the towel aside and walked back to the living room with her phone. “I happened to have it with me, so I gave it to him. However, migraine is a chronic illness, not something that can be treated in one or two days. I don’t have so much time to stay here. You can find a Traditional Chinese Medicine acupuncture master for him to do physical therapy when he has nothing to do. It will be more effective with medicine.”
Ye w.a.n.gchuan remembered her words and prepared to get Bo Jingxing to look for her later.
His gaze on her became deeper and deeper. It also had a lazy and provocative feeling. His tone was relaxed. “I owe you another favor.”
Qiao Nian narrowed her eyes. A little tired, she replied disapprovingly, “Not really. I owe you a lot.”
She tilted her head, her wet hair sliding across her eyebrows. She happened to raise her beautiful eyes, and they almost seemed able to speak as she looked at the man on the screen and said in a bandit-like tone, “Besides…”
Ye w.a.n.gchuan retracted his hand from the cup for some reason. He heard the girl’s lazy voice that was a little intentional.
“Besides, aren’t we good friends?”
Ye w.a.n.gchuan was speechless.
“It’s only right for good friends to help each other.”
With that, she successfully saw that the man opposite her had a stiff expression. She was in a very good mood. The corners of her mouth turned up in a devilish smile, and her eyes narrowed as if she had successfully pulled a prank.
It was rare for Ye w.a.n.gchuan to see her in such a good mood. The sadness in his heart slowly dissipated. He put down the cup in his hand and said in a low voice, “I’ll come over tomorrow.”
“Huh?” Qiao Nian didn’t react immediately. She looked at him with her dark eyes. “Where?”
“Ninth Branch.”
“You’re in Beijing?” Qiao Nian then noticed the background on the other end of the video call. It seemed like he was at home. She asked curiously, “Didn’t you say you would only be here in a few days?”
Ye w.a.n.gchuan leaned his head back. His collar was slightly open, revealing his long and straight neck and a lot of honey-colored skin.
Qiao Nian hadn’t planned to look at it, but she couldn’t help but be attracted by the view and looked at it more.
She didn’t know if the man on the other end of the line was doing this on purpose or accidentally, but as he moved, the collar of his s.h.i.+rt parted even more.
“I’m worried about you being alone there.”
“…”
Qiao Nian retracted her gaze and was silent for a moment.
“You…”
She felt like she was in the hospital again. She couldn’t describe it. It was quite complicated. She hadn’t encountered it before, but when she met Ye w.a.n.gchuan, she always had an indescribably complicated feeling.
Before she could finish, she heard the man’s deep voice. “When I reach Ninth Branch, I have something to tell you.”
Qiao Nian came back to her senses and lifted her eyes. When she saw the man’s eye-catching face on the screen, she fell silent. “What is it? You can tell me now.”
She didn’t like it when someone stopped talking halfway.
It was suspenseful.
However, Ye w.a.n.gchuan chuckled. There was a hidden meaning in his words. “Forget about tonight. The ambiance isn’t good enough.. I’ll treat you to a meal when Christmas comes in a few days.”
