Ye w.a.n.gchuan had used a private plane this time.
As soon as the plane landed at the airport of the independent continent, Qiao Nian received a call from Zhou Zhou. "Yes, I just arrived. Let's talk after I get off the plane."
Qin Si went down first.
He had a lot of luggage and was asking Gu San to help him move it.
They worked together to drag out a large box. Qin Si looked up and saw the girl walking out of the cabin with a black bag slung over her shoulder. He wiped off his sweat and stared enviously. "Sister Qiao, didn't you buy any specialties?"
Qiao Nian tugged at her shoulder strap. "I didn't. What's wrong?"
She only bought a cat brooch for the little guy and did not have time to shop at the mall.
Qin Si shook his head. "Nothing."
He smiled and said, "I bought a lot of local specialties this time. A few brands of skincare products are included. Aren't they good? I brought my family a few sets. Take a look at what you want later. Don't stand on ceremony with me."
Gu San was still helping him enter the luggage compartment to get his things. Seeing that he was standing there leisurely and chatting with Qiao Nian, he pulled him back. "Young Master Qin, don't be lazy. I can't do it alone!"
"I didn't say I was going to be lazy." Qin Si was forcefully dragged away by Gu San.
Qiao Nian went down from the cabin.
Coincidentally, Zhou Zhou called again.
She looked down at her cell phone but did not pick it up.
She turned around and saw a man coming out of the cabin a step slower than her.
Ye w.a.n.gchuan was as charming as ever. The beige-striped thin sweater looked outstanding on him, and he was very attention-grabbing.
Tall and with long legs, he walked up to Qiao Nian in a few steps and glanced at Qin Si and Gu San, who were moving their luggage. He put his hands in his pockets and said to the girl n.o.bly and lazily, "Let's go eat before going back. What do you want to eat?"
Qiao Nian's cell phone vibrated again, but she still did not pick up. She denied the call and looked at him. "You guys go eat. I'm going to the First Research Inst.i.tute first."
Ye w.a.n.gchuan saw Zhou Zhou's name jumping on her phone screen and guessed Feng Yu was looking for her. He did not say anything and walked over to Gu San to get his car keys. He came back and said to the girl, "I'll send you there."
Qiao Nian looked at her cell phone again. She pressed her eyebrows before following him. "Mm."
***
Half an hour later.
Qiao Nian arrived at the First Research Inst.i.tute.
After saying goodbye to Ye w.a.n.gchuan, she went straight to Feng Yu's office.
She was wearing a long beige windbreaker of the same color today. It was waist-hugging and matched with jeans and Martin boots. She looked especially refres.h.i.+ng and cool.
A lot of heads swiveled toward her on the way.
However, Qiao Nian habitually wore a baseball cap with the brim lowered.
The people from the First Research Inst.i.tute had not seen her for a long time, so no one recognized her.
However, her aura was still attention-grabbing.
Qiao Nian was already used to these gazes and ignored them. She walked to Feng Yu's office door, raised her hand, and knocked.
"h.e.l.lo, may I come in?"
A lazy and polite voice.
It was quite firm.
Very unique.
…
In the office.
Feng Yu, s.h.i.+ Fu, and Zhou Zhou were all there. Their expressions were solemn, and they did not speak much.
Zhou Zhou was in charge of contacting people.
She called a few times in a row, but Qiao Nian did not pick up.
Zhou Zhou walked back with her phone.
"How is it?" Feng Yu immediately asked.
Zhou Zhou shook her head. "Nothing."
