When he entered, he saw that the girl's body was covered in fog from the shower. She was pulling out a chair and preparing to sit down. Her originally fair skin was slightly pink because of the hot shower. Unaware of it, she tilted her head slightly to look at her cell phone, revealing a slender neck that was especially eye-catching.
Ye w.a.n.gchuan placed the freshly stewed chicken soup on her desk. From the corner of his eye, he saw two black leather notebooks on the girl's desk. He retracted his gaze and said, "I made a bowl of soup for you. Drink it while it's hot."
"Mm."
The girl responded lazily without looking up. Her gaze was still on her phone, reading a message.
D had sent a WeChat message five hours ago.
He asked her if she wanted to eat hotpot.
Qiao Nian replied with both hands.
After replying to Daji's message, she opened her WeChat Moments and scrolled to Lu Zhi's post. She liked it.
After doing this, the girl put her cell phone back down and noticed a bowl of steaming silver fungus soup on the table.
Slightly stunned, she reached out for it. Her porcelain-white hand held the spoon and stirred the soup. The clear sweetness of silver fungus wafted over.
Qiao Nian relaxed slightly and lowered her head to taste it.
It was not too sweet.
He should have put less sugar.
Coincidentally, she did not like too sweet a taste. This bowl of silver fungus soup was refres.h.i.+ng and delicious, which suited her taste. Qiao Nian finished the soup absentmindedly.
Putting down the bowl, she realized that the half-smiling man had not left. Her eyebrows twitched, and she finally broke the silence.
"Is there anything?"
Ye w.a.n.gchuan watched as she finished the entire bowl of soup and leaned against the chair. At her question, he crossed his arms and raised his eyebrows frivolously. "Mo Xi just left."
"Oh." Qiao Nian looked at him. "Then?"
"I heard that Ji Lingfeng saw that weapons dealer in the afternoon." Ye w.a.n.gchuan dropped another bombsh.e.l.l. "They met at the clubhouse you often go to, the Seaview Pavilion."
Qiao Nian did not even frown. She yawned lazily and stood up to get her shoulder bag. "Got it."
Ye w.a.n.gchuan's gaze followed her. There was a smile on his lips, and his voice was low and hoa.r.s.e. "The people outside are going crazy from investigating this weapons dealer, but G.o.ddess Qiao doesn't seem to be the least bit curious about him?"
Qiao Nian unzipped her shoulder bag and took out a chewing gum bottle. She poured out a small white sugar pill and swallowed it.
Then, she threw the bottle back into her bag, put the bag down, and returned with a calm expression. "I don't need to buy weapons in large quant.i.ties. It's normal not to be curious, right?"
Ye w.a.n.gchuan waited for her to walk back before raising the corners of his eyes. There was a deep smile in his eyes. "But I accidentally saw a person called D looking for you on WeChat today."
Qiao Nian suddenly looked at him.
Ye w.a.n.gchuan leaned against the wall, dignified and lazy at the same time. He seemed to have guessed it long ago. His cold voice was exceptionally clear. "Could this person be David? David from Continent F?"
Qiao Nian's dark eyes stared at him from left to right. She really did not know how he could link the weapons dealer who had recently come to the independent continent to David from Continent F just with the initial D.
… This was not how normal people behaved!
