Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After the general arrangements were done, Qiao Nian moved into the Eleventh Building with Qiao Mo. Although Qin Geng was reluctant to leave, he had made arrangements with Qiao Mo to see her every day. What surprised Qiao Nian was that Claud, the foodie, was not willing to move away! 

Claud was a fan of all things Chinese. He loved everything about China to the point of madness. And of course, he loved delicious food the most. 

Although Qiao Nian was an excellent cook, she was not willing to cook for him every day! Qiao Nian was extremely busy. She had so many things to do. Just entertaining him once a month was more than she could manage! 

“Qiao Nian, don’t be sad. I’m still your friend.” Claud said hypocritically, “If you’re having a party, don’t forget to invite me!” 

“Ingrate!” Qiao Nian said hatefully. 

However, Claud didn’t move in, which was what Qin Geng wanted. Although Claud looked silly, he seemed to be quite rich, patient, and gentle! This was completely in accordance with his mother’s criteria for choosing a spouse! 

Qin Geng did not want Claud to move into his mother’s house. What if his mother and Claud developed feelings over time? 

Qin Geng silently gave himself a task. In addition to reforming his father to help him pursue Qiao Nian again, he also had to keep an eye on Claud! 

On the third day after Qiao Nian moved to Eleventh Building, there were uninvited guests at home. The housekeeper of her house hired on a loan basis from the Purple Jade Villa. At this time, the housekeeper came to look for her and said that the people who claimed to be her sister and brother-in-law had come to visit. 

Qiao Nian took a look and saw that it was Qiao Shi and Qin Xiao. 

Qin Xiao had a very difficult week. First, a project on hand was inexplicably investigated by the relevant departments. Then, the person in charge of a project that was originally agreed upon suddenly disappeared… Qin Xiao was in a terrible state, he knew that the problem must be with Qiao Nian. 

Last time, Qiao Shi had failed to humiliate Qiao Nian. Not only had she failed to humiliate her, but she had even given Qiao Nian an advantage. Now, there were all sorts of rumors about Qiao Nian in the capital’s rich circle. She and her son each had a black card! 

Since no one was familiar with Qiao Nian at the moment, they picked on Qiao Shi. 

Thus, Qiao Shi and Qin Xiao had been having a hard time recently. If this continued, it would be difficult for them to go on! They could not delay the search for Dr. Celeste any longer. They urgently needed to contact Dr. Celeste to surrender to the Qin family to resolve the current situation. 

“Qiao Nian, is this how you treat your guests? Even when we are here, they didn’t know how to pour a cup of tea?” Qiao Shi was still an arrogant witch! 

When she saw Qiao Nian’s elegant appearance as the hostess, as well as the gorgeous décor in the Eleventh Building, she was so jealous that she was about to go crazy! How could she, Qiao Nian, live in such a good house? Was she worthy of such a thing? 

“Would you even drink the tea I made?” Qiao Nian looked at Qiao Shi and said, “Aren’t you afraid that I’ll put some poison in the tea?” Qiao Nian looked at Qiao Shi as if she was looking at a clown. 

“Shi Shi!” Qin Xiao interrupted Qiao Shi. They still had business to attend to today. 

Qiao Nian looked at Qin Xiao and recalled how he had just appeared in her life six years ago. At that time, her parents had met with a car accident on a cliff by the sea and were declared dead by the police. She was in a daze when Qin Xiao appeared. 

He said that he was Yingzhao God. Seeing that Qiao Nian was in trouble, he no longer hid his identity and went to help her. 

Six years ago, they had a good time. At that time, Qin Xiao took very good care of her. Although he said that he had also been in a car accident and had forgotten a lot of things due to the damage to his temporal lobe, many of the details he said could be compared to what Yingzhao God had said. 

Qiao Nian, who was not yet eighteen years old back then, did not have the ability to distinguish things as well as she did now. In addition, her family was also in trouble… 

Qin Xiao, who was sitting in the living room of the Eleventh Building, was also secretly observing Qiao Nian. Qiao Nian had changed. The past five years had changed her a lot. She had become elegant and charming and even more beautiful than Qiao Shi! What exactly had happened to her? 

“Qiao Nian,” Qin Xiao said, “I want Dr. Celeste to work for me.” 

“Have you two lost your minds?” Qiao Nian was almost angered by the shameless couple and laughed. “Where did you get the confidence to think that I would help you? Do I have the word ‘idiot’ written on my face?” 

“Don’t brag too early,” Qin Xiao said coldly. “What if I told you that your mother didn’t die back then?” 

“What did you say?” Qiao Nian was shocked!
