Chapter 463: Master Wang, You’re Really Profound

Liang Bowen had already opened the App Store. Upon hearing what she said, he was about to ask, ‘Then how did you download it?’

But seeing how bothered Qiao Nian was now, he quietly swallowed his words.

He was standing there with no idea how to comfort Qiao Nian. After some deliberation, he said, “Sister Nian, I don’t think Chen Yuan is the sort to mix around with those people. It’s only been three months, he can’t possibly be hanging out at the bar. There must be some kind of misunderstanding.”

Qiao Nian kept this at the back of her head, took a deep breath, and said, “We’ll talk when we get back.”

…

With this unresolved issue, Qiao Nian was distracted throughout the meal.

The good thing was that Ye Lan was the same.. She was just as distracted.

Qiao Nian could sense that Ye Lan was looking at her, but she couldn’t be bothered to ask what was going on. She barely took two mouthfuls before putting her chopsticks down.

After the whole meal, Ye Lan talked to them for a bit before leaving as something cropped up at work.

Before she left, she recalled the thing in her bag. She looked at Qiao Nian with a complicated expression before saying warmly, “Nian Nian, congratulations on getting into Qing University! I was going to bring you a congratulatory gift, but I forgot it in my rush.”

She had brought it, and it was just lying in her bag. She simply had no courage to take it out.

This was something Qiao Nian ate like it was chewing gum. How could she have the face to wrap it up like a gift and present it to her like that?

Moreover, Qiao Nian wasn’t just anybody. She was the Ye family’s benefactor. She was also her future niece-in-law whom she already acknowledged now. It was important to get her an appropriate gift. If this didn’t work, she would just get her something else.

Ye Lan was firm and stern outside, but extremely nice to Qiao Nian now. “When you come to Beijing again next time, I’ll get you a house.”

Qiao Nian was confused.

Was it a trend to give houses now?

She rubbed her forehead, still thinking about Chen Yuan’s issue. She was slightly distracted when she declined her. “I appreciate Aunt’s thought. But there’s no need for the house, I have one in Beijing.”

Of course, Ye Lan took it that she was declining out of formality. She smiled and said, “It’s your first time in Beijing, how could you have a house here?”

Liang Bowen was sitting by the side and didn’t have a chance to interrupt. He had mixed feelings about this, just like Gu San.

Sister Nian really wasn’t boasting!

She really did have properties in Beijing!

He witnessed it himself when the chairman of Cheng Feng Corporation gifted a few Beijing properties to Sister Nian as a birthday gift.

Ye Lan thought that this was such a good idea and patted Qiao Nian on the shoulder kindly. “It’s settled, then. I have a unit in Wangchuan’s apartment, single-story, 168 square meters. It’s renovated, but no one has lived there. It’s close to Qing University, so it’ll be convenient for you when you’re studying here in the future. And since it’s close to Wangchuan too, the both of you can look out for each other!”

Her cell phone rang again; she really needed to go. Ye Lan couldn’t stay to talk to her anymore and quickly said to Ye Wangchuan, “They’re hurrying me, I really can’t stay any longer. I’ll leave first, you guys have fun.

“Wangchuan, take care of Nian Nian for me.”

“Go on. I’ll send her home later.”

Seeing Ye Wangchuan agree, Ye Lan hurriedly picked up her call while rushing out. She was gone soon enough.

Once she left, Ye Wangchuan leaned back in his seat. He turned around and asked Qiao Nian, “What happened?”

He could tell that Qiao Nian had looked a little off since she returned from the washroom. She was evidently bothered by something.
