1854 If Qiao Nian Represents the Nan Family in the a.s.sessment
He paused for a moment and then said, “But the Nan family has never been involved in these things. I’ll help you ask my uncle-in-law. He might be willing to recommend you.”
It had been almost twenty years since the Nan family had recommended anyone to partic.i.p.ate in the a.s.sessment of the First Research Inst.i.tute.
This also caused some newly risen small forces in the Independent Continent to think that this was why they declined.
After all, the First Research Inst.i.tute was too important.
The Nan family had not had a single person partic.i.p.ate in the past twenty years. Compared to the Ji family who could send a person to the First Research Inst.i.tute every three years, they seemed a little down and out…
!!However, those who knew the inside story knew that the Nan family had few members and did not like to cultivate their own power like the other two families.
Under such circ.u.mstances, no one from the Nan family could partic.i.p.ate in the a.s.sessment.
Qiao Nian indeed had something in mind for the First Research Inst.i.tute, so she didn’t stand on ceremony with him. Looking up at him with her dark eyes, she nodded and said softly, “Thank you.”
Ji Nan smiled. He was in a good mood. “You don’t have to be so polite with me. I’m already very grateful that you’re willing to come over.”
Looking at the girl, although he didn’t want to give her too much pressure, for Qiao Nian’s sake, he still said in a low voice, “Actually, as long as you have a way to treat my aunt… No, there’s no need to treat her. As long as you can reduce her pain, my uncle should be willing to help you.”
Xie Tingyun and Nan Tianyi were famous for having a good relations.h.i.+p.
The two of them had been married for twenty years and had been living in seclusion in a manor that was isolated from the world.
When Xie Tingyun was young, she was too exhausted from doing research, causing her to be infertile.
As the only male in this generation of the Nan family, Nan Tianyi was under a certain amount of pressure in this aspect.
However, he forcefully resisted the pressure.
Xie Tingyun was not in good health, so he accompanied her to live in seclusion for 20 years.
Xie Tingyun had never been able to get pregnant, so he had never had a child.
It could be seen how good their relations.h.i.+p was.
That was why Ji Nan said that if Qiao Nian could reduce his aunt’s pain, even if she couldn’t cure her, Nan Tianyi would very likely be willing to recommend her and think of a way to let Qiao Nian partic.i.p.ate in the a.s.sessment of the First Research Inst.i.tute…
However, for Qiao Nian to represent the Nan family in the First Research Inst.i.tute’s a.s.sessment…
There was a high chance that the Independent Continent would have another commotion.
After all, no one from the Nan family had partic.i.p.ated in the a.s.sessment in the past twenty years.
But the moment they did, they would discover that it was an outsider.
The explosiveness of two consecutive heavy bombs would definitely make the Independent Continent lively again.
At that time, all the major forces would probably focus on Qiao Nian again and think of ways to investigate her thoroughly.

Ji Nan’s car had already driven into a beautiful manor before she could reply.
“We’re here,” Ji Nan said as he parked the car. He unbuckled his seatbelt and turned around to say to the girl, “Let’s get out of the car first.”
Qiao Nian looked outside and saw a very beautiful, white four-story villa.
She unbuckled her seatbelt, picked up her backpack, and got out of the car.
Ye w.a.n.gchuan’s messages came one after another, as punctual as if he had installed surveillance cameras to monitor her.
[Y: Are you there yet?]
Qiao Nian looked down at the WeChat message on her phone. For a moment, she suspected that he had installed a location tracker on her phone.
However, she knew very well that the possibility of someone installing a location tracker on her phone without her noticing was almost zero.
It could only be said that he knew her too well.
He had calculated her whereabouts clearly.
