Chapter 2012: No, I’m Meeting a Friend Tonight Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios At this moment, the girl pulled down her baseball cap, revealing an exquisite and eye-catching face. Her beautiful black eyes were clear and cold as she said, “I don’t have time tonight. I’m meeting a friend.” She rejected him directly! Cao Yanhua was even more embarrassed. “Ah, Qiao Nian, everyone from the Level S laboratory wants to welcome you… You…” Qiao Nian slung her black shoulder bag over her shoulder and hummed. She stood cynically and said in a very casual and cold tone, “I’m sorry, I have an appointment tonight. Next time.” Cao Yanhua was speechless. He knew in his heart that it was not that she did not have time, but that she did not accept his form of ‘compensation’. He was not a difficult person to get along with. It was just that he had been in the Level 8 laboratory for too long. Although he realized that he had gone a little overboard today, he could not apologize to a group of newcomers. Cao Yanhua pondered for a moment and looked up at her. “Then, I’ll send you out. ‘ “Okay.” Qiao Nian had no objections. She took the lead in rejecting today’s meal. Shen Qingfeng, Xue Zhu, and Xu Yi had no objections and stood on her side. They followed Cao Yanhua out of the laboratory. Cao Yanhua’s heart was in torment along the way. When he sent her to the corridor outside the Level 8 laboratory, he couldn’t help but stop and invite the girl again, “Qiao Nian, are you really not coming? I’ve already made an appointment with the others. Xie Xinyao and the others have agreed to go. I can introduce you guys then.” He was talking about a group of people from the Level 8 laboratory. Logically speaking, it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for them to meet people from the Level S laboratory and build a good relationship with them. After all, ordinary people could not come into contact with the members of the Level S laboratory. Cao Yanhua’s eyebrows moved slightly. He thought that Qiao Nian did not know the twists and turns inside and was about to give her a pointer. “Senior Brother Cao.” At this moment, a voice came from the corridor. Cao Yanhua saw Ji Ziyin walking towards him when he looked up. In the blink of an eye, she was already in front of them. Ji Ziyin also noticed the girl beside him. She previously met Qiao Nian because of the conflict over the WAL forum post. In the past few days, Qiao Nian did not come to the First Research Institute, and she did not see her again. At this moment, seeing Qiao Nian standing with the three people from Team 10 and Cao Yanhua, she secretly clenched her fists. Walking up to Cao Yanhua, she raised her head slightly and returned to her usual magnanimity. She greeted him as if she hadn’t seen Qiao Nian and the others. “Senior Brother Cao, I was about to look for you. I didn’t expect to meet you here. It’s like this. I’m holding a birthday banquet in a few days. Are you free? I want to invite you to attend it. ‘ She was generous and well -spoken. It was obvious that she had been nurtured by a wealthy family. Ji Ziyin even gave Cao Yanhua the invitation. “This is the invitation. Senior Brother Cao, you have to come if you’re free.” She greeted him with a smile and gave him an invitation. Cao Yanhua could not refuse and could only accept the invitation first. He did not say whether he would go or not. He turned around and asked the girl, “Qiao Man, tonight, you. Before he could finish speaking.. The girl had just finished replying to a message. At this moment, she looked up and saw Ji Ziyin. She only raised her eyebrows before retracting her gaze. With an arrogant attitude, she said concisely, “My friend has booked a place. Next time..”
