“I haven’t asked for the details yet. The person I’m looking for is still investigating the inside story. I’ve booked a flight back. Let’s talk about it when I get back.”
This matter seemed to be quite complicated. It involved the people in Beijing. Yuan Yongqin still didn’t know which family was involved. She had left Beijing 10 years ago to work and had been in the business circle all these years. Qiao Nian lived in Rao City, and she had also set up the headquarters of the Cheng Feng Corporation here. She had spent most of the year with Qiao Nian to develop in Rao City and had hence grown gradually unfamiliar with the people and matters in Beijing. Some of the connections that her family had formed in the early years had been cut off after such a long time. It wasn’t easy to pick them up again. She could only try her best to get someone she knew to help investigate, but had not received a reply for a while.
She was afraid that Qiao Nian would be impulsive, so she got Su Mo to book her the earliest flight back.
However, international flights weren’t as good as domestic flights. There were several flights a day between every city. International flights took a long time, at least five hours, and a little more than ten hours at most.
She would usually take two flights a day.
The flight route she was going to take was the route for two flights a day. Today’s tickets had all been sold out. If she wanted to come back, she had to wait until tomorrow afternoon.
The flight would take about ten hours. By the time she got to Rao City, it would probably be two or three in the morning.
“I’ll be back the day after tomorrow. I’ll be back as soon as possible.”
Qiao Nian pursed her lips. She hadn’t thought that Chen Yuan would cause much trouble. Seeing her reaction, her heart sank instead. She narrowed her eyes and held her phone. “I’ll go to the police station to see him first.”
“…Alright.”
Knowing about her relationship with the Chen family, Yuan Yongqin knew that it was unrealistic to not let her visit Chen Yuan. She immediately said, “I guessed that you would visit him, so I called Chief Cai in advance. He will go over after a meeting. When he brings you along, it’ll be easier for you to meet Chen Yuan.”
“Okay. Thank you, Aunt Yuan,” Qiao Nian said softly. Yuan Yongqin had arranged everything so meticulously for her.
The woman on the other end of the line let out a deep laugh and said reproachfully and dotingly, “What’s there to thank? I didn’t help much. Anyway, Nian Nian, you can go see Chen Yuan, but don’t be impulsive when something happens. We’ll talk about everything when I’m back. At least, if there are some things that you can’t handle, I can help you resolve them.”
Only she and Wei Lou knew that Qiao Nian was the big shareholder of Cheng Feng Corporation. Wei Lou had gone back to his hometown some time ago because of his family matters and had not returned yet. Wei Lou wasn’t around and she was overseas, for the time being, so she was worried that Qiao Nian would face all these alone.
“I told Su Mo to take the plane tonight back to Rao City. If it really doesn’t work out, you can get him to come forward.”
“I know.” Qiao Nian knew that it was inconvenient for her to do many things. She was young, and there were always people who did not take her seriously.
She rarely made an appearance, either. Usually, Yuan Yongqin would be the one to resolve matters for her. Of course, she herself would be the one to help behind the scenes.
Qiao Nian’s heart softened. Her bandit aura was no longer as strong as before. It was as if her sharp edges had been removed, revealing her true soft side. “I’m just going to take a look at Chen Yuan’s situation. Even if I have to cause trouble, I have to find out what’s going on first.”
“It’s best if you don’t cause trouble. You’re about to take the college entrance examination. It’s better to keep a low profile. When you go to Beijing, you can cause trouble wherever you want.”
She already knew Qiao Nian’s results this time. It was both unexpected and reasonable.
She wasn’t surprised that Qiao Nian could get into Qing University, but 650 points still shocked her. After thinking about it, she felt that it wasn’t strange for her to get full marks!
Therefore, it was both unexpected and reasonable.
