Chapter 2924 The Painting Was Snatched by Qiao Nian
Shi Fu’s car arrived.
He frowned at Su Zhe and stopped, letting Zhou Zhou enter the car first. "Professor Su, what’s the matter?"
Su Zhe was embarrassed. Mustering her courage, she asked, "Um… I want to ask if Mr. Ye’s girlfriend knows Elder Feng?"
Shi Fu looked at her in surprise.
Feeling even more awkward, Su Zhe clenched her fists and explained, "I bumped into Elder Feng when I went to the washroom. Mr. Ye’s girlfriend was with him. I wonder if they know each other…"
She had originally thought that it was unlikely for Qiao Nian to befriend someone at Feng Yu’s level. However, Qiao Nian was Mr. Ye’s girlfriend, so it was hard to say.
However, that wasn’t why Su Zhe wanted to clarify this matter. She mainly wanted to prove that she was better than a superficial girl!
After all, Ye Wangchuan had rejected her. She was still very embarrassed.
Shi Fu did not understand her thoughts and replied seriously, "You mean Qiao Nian? She’s from the First Research Institute, the heir chosen by Elder Feng, and one of the WLA members." Su Zhe did not believe her ears and looked at him dumbfoundedly. "S-She is…"
"Q." Shi Fu’s eyes were indifferent as he said a code name.
The almighty Q.
Su Zhe’s face turned pale. Her lips trembled, and her smile was uglier than crying. "Thank you, Deputy Director. I won’t disturb you anymore."
She stepped aside.
Shi Fu nodded and entered the car.
The car drove away.
Her good friend’s expression was terrible. She worriedly clung to her shoulder and asked, "What’s wrong? Why are you so pale?"
Su Zhe looked at her and shook her head bitterly.
That girl was superficial?
Initially, she thought she was quite impressive, but in the end, she realized she was arrogant to the wrong person. Now, she was embarrassed and wished she could find a hole to hide in.
Fortunately, no one knew what she talked about with Shi Fu, so Su Zhe could barely maintain her dignity.
She just wanted to quickly leave this place.

At the same time, at the Four Seasons Hotel. Ji Ziyin’s celebration banquet had also ended.
Her celebratory banquet this time was comparable to a public event. Throughout the entire banquet, not a single WLA member came to congratulate her.
The degree of awkwardness was comparable to a moon crashing into Earth.
Ji Ziyin finally made it to the end of the banquet before leaving with a dark expression. She did not even care about the guests and left everything to Ji Xiao to handle.
She did not leave. Instead, she took the elevator to the top floor to Leonard’s place.
Leonard had not rested for the night yet.
She knocked on the door before entering.
"Elder Leo, I have something to tell you."
Leonard sat on the sofa and asked, "Where’s my painting?"
Ji Ziyin had long expected him to rush her. Previously, she had been hiding it, but now, she had changed her mind and spilled the beans.
"Qiao Nian snatched the painting."
Leonard was opening a bottle of wine. Upon hearing this, he suddenly narrowed his eyes. His gaze was dangerous. "Didn’t you promise you would get the painting?"
Ji Ziyin immediately avoided his gaze and lowered her head, looking weak. "I’m sorry, Elder Leo. She snatched the painting forcefully. I had no choice. I’ve already told her you wanted the painting, but she still refused to give in."
Leonard’s face darkened.
He did not expect Qiao Nian to snatch the painting. Wasn’t she deliberately going against him?
