1619 Leaving for Rao City
Jiang Yao recalled what Tang Wanru said this morning and he felt even more complicated.
He didn’t see Jiang Xianrou come out with them when he went out in the morning and asked casually. Tang Wanru said that she had caught a cold and was resting at home.
He actually knew very well that Jiang Xianrou was not sick.
Being sick was just a cover.
She didn’t want to come to the hospital because she didn’t like Jiang Li.
He had a thousand reasons to understand her behavior, but he couldn’t accept that she didn’t come to the hospital to see Jiang Li the entire time.
Jiang Xianrou was too cold this time.
It was as if Jiang Li was her enemy and not her biological brother.
Jiang Yao’s heart was heavy, but he couldn’t say these words in front of his parents. He could only suppress them in his heart.

Qiao Nian completed the discharge procedures for Jiang Li and temporarily handed him over to his manager to take care of. In addition, she used the money Qi Yan gave her to find Jian Jin.
He asked Jian Jin to find a few agile people to squat beside Jiang Li and protect him.
Jian Jin and the others had been in contact with people in the illegal district and the independent continent.
Few people in the country were as skilled and quick-witted as the people she interacted with.
Of course, it would cost a lot to hire these people as bodyguards.
However, since someone was footing the bill, Qiao Nian didn’t hold back at all. The bodyguards she found for Jiang Li were all among the top in the independent continent.
With these people watching over Jiang Li, a small character like Qi Yan could forget about touching him like before in the future.
Basically, anyone who came would be crippled.
Qiao Nian prepared for her trip to Rao City after arranging the bodyguards for Jiang Li.
She didn’t have much to bring, but there was something she needed to take with her.
Qiao Nian threw her laptop, charging cable, and the medicine she carried with her into her shoulder bag. Then, she zipped it up, put her phone to charge, got up, and went to take a shower.

The following day.
Qiao Nian got up early and arrived at the airport at 6:30 in the morning.
Because Ye Wangchuan had something to attend to at the last minute, he didn’t send her to the airport. Arriving at the airport, Gu San got out of the car and opened the door for her, reminding her worriedly, “Miss Qiao, remember to call me when you get there.”
“Okay.” Qiao Nian agreed readily. Without further ado, she took her shoulder bag and slung it over her shoulder. Then, she lazily waved at him. “I’m going.”
Gu San said a few more words to her and watched her enter the airport before getting into the car and driving away.
Jiang Xianrou arrived at the airport almost at the same time.
However, she did not see Gu San. She pulled her suitcase and got out of the car, then looked at her watch and said impatiently, “Mom, I’m going in. Otherwise, I won’t be able to catch the plane.”
“Alright.” Not bearing to let go, Tang Wanru tidied her collar and said softly, “Just do your best for this assessment. Don’t tire yourself out, understand?”
“Mom, don’t worry.” Jiang Xianrou’s lips twitched and she forced a smile. Her eyes were filled with ambition as she said confidently, “I’ll definitely get first place in this new member assessment! And I’ll definitely let them know that I can still succeed even if I don’t go to the independent continent!”
Didn’t Qiao Nian think that by suppressing her and not letting her go to the independent continent, she would be able to prevent her from making a comeback?
