Qiao Nian had one hand in her pocket. She was about to pull down her baseball cap in frustration when she remembered that she had just taken a shower and was not wearing a cap at all.
She did not look into Jian Jin's eyes and tried to look calm.
"I hate betrayal the most.
"Especially a friend's betrayal.
"Because we will only give our backs to the people we trust. If I'm stabbed in the back, even if I won't hate them, we can't go back to the past."
The girl's voice was calm and composed. Her tireless tone made people calm down for no reason, but the discomfort was no better than a slap from Qiao Nian.
At the very least, Jian Jin hoped that Qiao Nian could slap her. It was better than this sentence: We can't go back to the past.
"Qiao, Big Boss Lu never wanted to hurt you, and neither did I." Jian Jin's starry eyes flickered as she said with difficulty, "He had his own difficulties. I—"
She could not say her difficulties.
Qiao Nian nodded and did not refute her. She only asked, "Does Lu Zhi know that the K Organization is related to my mother's death back then?"
Jian Jin suddenly looked up, her pupils trembling violently.
"In the end, my mother died at the hands of the people from the K Organization." Qiao Nian was expressionless as she said calmly, "In other words, no matter who was behind the K Organization, they were at least the knife that killed my mother back then. Do you and Lu Zhi know about this?"
Jian Jin lowered her head in silence.
Because… she knew.
Lu Zhi knew it too.
What they were thinking did not matter. They had already hurt Qiao in their actions.
Jian Jin left on her own.
Before she left, she did not mention Lu Zhi again. She only said, "I won't tell him about what happened today. Qiao, I'm sorry."
Qiao Nian watched her leave and did not say anything else.
Jian Jin could only leave sadly.

The door of the suite opposite opened after Jian Jin left.
Wearing refres.h.i.+ng home clothes, Ye w.a.n.gchuan leaned against the door. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly as he said to her, "Have you made it clear with them?"
Qiao Nian looked up and was speechless. "You know about it again?"
Ye w.a.n.gchuan smiled and did not speak.
Qiao Nian was even more speechless. She supported her forehead with her hand and pinched the bridge of her nose. She looked at the man for a long time before saying, "No, did you install a listening device on me? How do you know everything?"
She remembered that she had never told him about Lu Zhi. He had guessed 70 to 80% of it just by seeing Jian Jin come and leave.

This was completely illogical!
Ye w.a.n.gchuan did not answer her directly. He walked forward and touched the end of the girl's wet hair. Then, he lowered his head and said gently, "Your hair hasn't dried yet. You'll catch a cold."
He held the girl's hand with his large hand and wrapped her slightly cold hand in his large palm before pulling her back into the room.
"Let's go. I'll dry it for you."
Qiao Nian followed him into the room.
Ye w.a.n.gchuan let go of her hand and went to the bathroom to find the hairdryer. Then, he walked to the plug and inserted it. He dragged a chair in front of him and waved at the girl. "Nian Nian, sit here."
Qiao Nian paused and walked over. She sat on the chair and suddenly lowered her eyes. "Aren't you going to ask me what I told Jian Jin?"
Ye w.a.n.gchuan untied the rubber band and put it on his wrist. His fingers gently pa.s.sed through the girl's hair as he turned on the hairdryer. He turned the wind to the minimum and began to blow her hair gently. "Do you want to say it?"
