Sister Nian, You Know Ji Qing?
However, the girl was wearing a sweater and a cap, and her hands were in her pockets. She only had a black shoulder bag and nothing else.
But who else could it be other than Qiao Nian?
“Why are you here?” Wei Ling thought of her brother’s matter and still had a knot in her heart about Qiao Nian. At the very least, she couldn’t act as if nothing had happened. Her expression was tense as she spoke.
Wei Ying was even more restrained. She didn’t say a word and was expressionless. Her mean eyes stared at the girl sharply.
“Nian Nian, why are you here?” Shen Jingyan was much more natural than the two of them. He walked over and asked gently, “Are you here to eat?”
He asked again before Qiao Nian could speak, “You’re alone? No friends with you?”
Shen Jingyan’s brows relaxed, and he looked very sincere as he invited her. “Today is your Grandma Wei’s birthday. We’re holding a banquet here. Since you’re alone, why don’t you come with us?”
Wei Ying’s expression changed slightly as soon as he finished speaking. At the thought of her youngest son, who had yet to come out of prison after being sent there by Qiao Nian, she gritted her teeth in hatred. She also thought about her current dire situation. Even the Ye family refused to come, and Qiao Nian had a good relationship with them.
Especially with Ye Wangchuan… Their relationship was not ordinary.
She took a deep breath and thought about the pros and cons. She forced herself to show a ‘kind’ expression and continued, “Yes, you’re already here. Why don’t you go in and we eat together? I’ll get your uncle to arrange a seat for you.”
“There’s no need. I’m here to meet someone.” The face under the hoodie was exquisite and violent. Her sharp black eyes looked at Wei Ying and she asked concisely, “Do you know Ji Qing?”
Wei Ying’s expression changed drastically. She immediately frowned, and her attitude changed 180 degrees. She said coldly, “Qiao Nian, today is my birthday party. Don’t cause trouble here.”
Qiao Nian didn’t waste any time. She took out her phone from her pocket and played a conversation she had intercepted from the black box in front of her.
Wei Ying’s name was mentioned.
The recording was not long, only about ten seconds.
However, Wei Ying’s reaction was intense. At first, she wanted to act like an elder, but when she heard the recording, her expression changed drastically. She asked her sternly, “Where did you get this recording?”
It was fine if she asked a question, but she even wanted to snatch the phone.
Qiao Nian put away her phone and asked calmly, “You know Ji Qing?”
Shen Jingyan didn’t understand what was going on at all. In a dilemma, he turned to ask Wei Ying, “Mom, what was that recording just now? Was the person they were talking about you?”
Wei Ying didn’t say anything, but her expression was still ugly. She couldn’t hide her ruthlessness when looking at Qiao Nian.
Seeing her reaction, Shen Jingyan was basically certain that the “Wei Ying” mentioned in the recording was his mother-in-law.
He rubbed his temples and tried to smooth things over helplessly. “Nian Nian, are you talking to the wrong person? There are so many people with the same name outside. They might not be talking about your Grandma Wei. Perhaps it’s someone with the same name.”
Qiao Nian’s gaze was annoyed as she raised her eyes.
She wanted to question the Wei family ever since she received the recording from the black box.
However, she was busy going around the city to get something, so she pushed this matter back until now.
