"This…" Zhang Yin's mind raced.
He knew Nie Qixing was very polite to this person, so he naturally did not dare to be careless. He quickly said, "Young Master Qi is over there. Why don't you wait for him? He'll be back after the call. You should at least see him before leaving."
Shadow had no objections.
He turned sideways and looked in the direction Zhang Yin had ntioned.
Suddenly, a figure walked past the corner of the stairs and disappeared at the end of the corridor.
Shadow's usually expressionless face showed rare surprise. He turned to Zhang Yin, who was serving him tea and water, and asked, "Did you invite any strangers today? For example, a girl…"
Zhang Yin was confused by the question. "No, Young Master Qi only invited his friends and colleagues. He did not ntion inviting any unfamiliar faces, nor did he ntion… a girl."
He discreetly observed Shadow's reaction as he spoke.
He was curious why Shadow would ntion the guest list.
With a special emphasis on a girl.
A girl, not a woman.
He was smart and imdiately deduced the person Shadow ntioned should be young. Otherwise, he wouldn't have used the word "girl".
But this age did not suit Young Master Qi's taste…
He was very perceptive and imdiately said, "I'll go ask Young Master Qi. He might know who you're talking about."

At the sa ti.
Qiao Nian had already found the day's main character.
Nie Qixing was still dressed elegantly and casually on such an important occasion. The simple white shirt looked quite stylish on him.
He was on the phone with soone, and his voice sounded gentle. "I know. You don't have to worry about ."
"When I'm not by your side, you have to take care of yourself. Otherwise, I'll be worried."
"Yes, don't worry."
He spoke slowly and patiently, maintaining a respectful and intimate attitude.
Qiao Nian's sixth sense instinctively guessed the other party's identity—Nie Qingru!
At this mont, Nie Qixing also noticed soone standing behind him from the corner of his eye. He imdiately turned around, his face cold and solemn, and his gaze swept over sharply.
Seeing Qiao Nian, he frowned, and a trace of surprise flashed across his eyes.
However, he was not soone who showed his emotions easily.
Nie Qixing did not hang up at a stranger's sudden appearance. His tone was still calm as he continued speaking on the phone. "Cumr, I'll hang up first."
Cumr, godmother.
Qiao Nian raised her eyebrows slightly, and her expression beca unreadable. Nie Qixing walked up to her, but she spoke first. "Professor Nie, I've heard a lot about you."
Nie Qixing looked at the girl he had noticed at the front desk a few days ago and lowered his eyes. "You are… Miss Qiao?"
Qiao Nian's voice was unique.
Her tone had a kind of casual laziness as if nothing could make her take it to heart.
It was very unique.
Nie Qixing looked at her face partially covered by the brim of her cap. From his angle, he could only see a rough outline, but he could feel it was as eye-catching as a blooming rose.
"Why did you co here?" Nie Qixing acted like a gentleman. Even though he was very interested in Qiao Nian, he remained calm outwardly. He even took the initiative to say, "Have you not found a seat yet? I'll bring you there."
