Chapter 887 Your Boyfriend’s Concern
Outside the hotel, the black sedan had just arrived and was parked steadily in front.
The chauffeur still had to go park the car and did not come down. Gu San got down first and helped the people in the back to open the door. He looked up at the steps of the Imperial Mansion and said in a low voice, “Master Wang, Miss Qiao, we’re here.”
After playing a game, Qiao Nian put away her cell phone and realized that the car had stopped. They had already arrived at the restaurant.
She got out of the car calmly and looked at her cell phone.
As soon as the game was closed, she saw many unread messages.
Yuan Yongqin and Nie Mi asked her if she had gotten off the plane.
Qiao Nian replied.
Only Qin Si’s message came last. (Sister Qiao, are you there yet?]
Qiao Nian had not replied.
Ye Wangchuan saw that the girl was playing with her cell phone the entire way and did not watch where she was going. He held his brow bone helplessly and walked beside her to remind her, “Be careful of the steps. Don’t trip.”
Qiao Nian, who was reading her messages, looked up. Her eyes narrowed slightly. She was no longer as distant and polite as before as she replied evilly, “Uh, are you cursing
me?”
Ye Wangchuan tidied her hair under the brim of her hat. He was in a good mood, and his deep eyes seemed to be able to swallow people up. He brushed her hair back easily. “Sister Nian can’t tell that this is your boyfriend’s concern.”
Qiao Nian was speechless.
To be honest, she had never realized that he was so flirtatious in the past.
She was probably feeling a little frustrated because of the teasing. With Gu San around, she quickly looked away and seemed to be escaping as she replied to Qin Si’s message.
Ye Wangchuan looked at the girl pursing her lips and looking quite impatient. However, she avoided him and did not dare to look at him. His chest heaved and he chuckled. Clearly, his good mood was written all over his face. Even though Qiao Nian had already put on an attitude that said, “I can’t afford to offend you, but I can surely hide.” He even slowly added, “Actually, you don’t have to be so careful. I’ll definitely not let you fall while I’m beside you.”
Hmph!
Qiao Nian was originally typing. She was typing ‘lobby’ when he annoyed her and caused her fingers to slip. She had a typo.
The issue was… she was used to reply to messages without checking through them. When she regained her senses, the message had already been sent.
Qin Si asked if she had arrived.
She replied with ‘lobe’.
‘Lobe’ instead of ‘lobby’!
Qiao Nian looked at the message she had sent and took a deep breath. She automatically ignored the people around her and prepared to send another message.
Halfway through her message, she went up to the third floor and walked towards the banquet hall.
She was about to enter when a familiar voice called her name.
“Qiao Nian?”
This voice?
The warmth in her eyes quickly froze. She looked up and indeed saw a familiar face.
Shen Qiongzhi was still her usual self. She was dressed in a wealthy and imposing manner. Not only was she wearing a branded dress and carrying a branded bag, but there was also a round pearl necklace hanging on her neck. If it wasn’t for the wrinkles and oldness at the corners of her eyes and mouth, her attire would present her to be at least be 10 years younger than her actual age.
It was a pity that her life had not been smooth-sailing in the past year. She couldn’t think straight and often sulked. She aged very quickly.
She was dressed like a rich madam with heavy makeup. Compared to the clean and refreshing Wei Ling standing beside her, she looked overdressed and vulgar, like a nouveau riche from the countryside who was uncultured.
Shen Qiongzhi suddenly shouted Qiao Nian’s name, giving Wei Ling a fright. When she saw the man beside the girl looking over at them, her pair of bottomless eyes darkened.
