2451 Guan Yan Asked Qin Si Out to Buy Tonics However, Qiao Nian only looked at her. The corners of her lips curled up into a faint smile. She raised her baseball cap, revealing a pair of dry eyes. “I won’t go back to the Ji family.” “I’m not done talking.” Qiao Nian paused and looked up, revealing her cold jaw. Her lines were strong and sharp as she looked at her mockingly. “Ji Ziyin, don’t tell me you think I don’t know where the experimental project you’re talking about came from?” Ji Ziyin’s expression changed slightly. Stepping aside and quickly turning cold, she put on airs. “I’m just giving you a chance. If you don’t want to cooperate, forget it.” “Alright.” Qiao Nian sized her up as if she couldn’t be bothered to argue with her. Then, she walked around her and left. An inexplicable sense of uneasiness surged in Ji Ziyin’s heart as she watched the girl leave. She clenched her fists and called out, but Qiao Nian had no intention of stopping. She only left her with a cold back view and ignored her. Feeling even more uncertain at her reaction, Ji Ziyin shouted at her departing figure, “The First Research Institute will decline sooner or later. You’d better consider my suggestion.” The girl walked away without looking back. It was as if her words were nonsense! … Qiao Nian walked out of the restaurant and was about to take out her phone to make a call when she bumped into a man and a woman. She was surprised. Guan Yan also saw her. She left the man behind and walked towards her. “Boss, why are you here?” She craned her neck to look inside, then turned back to look at the girl. “Out on a date?” she asked in an uncertain tone. “No.” Qiao Nian guessed that Ji Ziyin would come out soon. She did not want to meet such a self-righteous fool again, so she said, “Let’s go.” Qin Si followed. He was also a little surprised to see Qiao Nian. He thought that Ye Wangchuan was nearby and looked around for a long time, but he did not see him. “Sister Qiao, you’re here. Where’s Master Wang?” Qiao Nian left the restaurant with Guan Yan and found a place to sit. Guan Yan ordered two glasses of water and brought them over for her. Then, she pulled out a chair and sat down. Qin Si and Guan Yan sat opposite her and watched as the girl typed on the keyboard. However, Qin Si could not help but exclaim at her typing speed every time he saw it. Qiao Nian only logged into an app and sent a message to someone. The reply came back quickly. It was a simple ‘OK’. Retracting her gaze, she closed the dialog box and casually knocked on the computer. Seeing that she was done, Guan Yan asked, “Boss, what happened?” “Nothing.” Qiao Nian closed the computer and put it in her backpack. Then, she zipped it up and replied with a casual expression, “I want to take something back.” The corners of Guan Yan’s mouth twitched as she recalled what Qiao Nian did not long ago. At that time, Qiao Nian had also told her that she wanted to take something back. In the end, she brought her alone to barge into the Ji family’s Punishment Hall to find the USB drive Ji Qing had left behind. This time, Qiao Nian wanted to take back something again. She guessed that the independent continent was about to turn upside down again.
