Chapter 2585 I Heard You’re Leaving in the Afternoon聽聽"Are you really letting me go?" Yu Xinlan looked at her deeply, as if she did not believe she would keep her promise.
But she saw that Qiao Nian had no intention of going back on her word.
Yu Xinlan suddenly pursed her lips and ran away without another word.
Ji Lin’s men were still guarding outside to prevent any accidents from happening inside. Qiao Nian could call for them if needed.
They looked at her in unison when Yu Xinlan came out.
Yu Xinlan’s heart was beating like a drum. It was so fast that it was about to come out. She walked close to the wall, afraid that they would catch her again.
Unexpectedly, although Ji Lin pouted at her, he turned around and asked the person beside him, "What’s wrong with her? Go ask Miss Qiao."
"Yes." The man hurried inside the room.
However, Yu Xinlan realized that no one tried to stop her the entire time.action
Her oval face was flushed. No longer able to suppress her agitation, she quickened her pace and jogged out of the Pharmacy Association.***
Ji Lin’s subordinate saw Qiao Nian standing in the room unscathed and went back to report the situation.
Puzzled, Ji Lin went to look for Qiao Nian himself. Seeing that half of the girl’s face was shrouded in shadow, and her face could not be seen clearly, he lowered his eyes and said, "Miss Qiao, Yu Xinlan has left."
"Mm."
Qiao Nian walked out of the shadows. There was no emotion on her exquisite face. She nodded and looked no different from usual.
"Are we going to let her go just like that?" Ji Lin vaguely sensed that she was in a bad mood and followed her.
Qiao Nian suppressed her frustration and pulled her baseball cap down, revealing only her fair chin. "She made a deal with me and I agreed to let her go."
’A deal?’ Ji Lin looked at her.
The girl’s cold back looked especially thin. Her cold aura had faded a lot, as if she was enveloped in annoyance.
Qiao Nian rarely revealed this side of her.
Ji Lin did not know how to respond for a moment. Instead, he hesitated for a moment before walking in front of her and blocking the girl’s path. He said in a low voice, "Miss Qiao, are you alright?""Huh?" Qiao Nian was immersed in her thoughts when she was suddenly stopped. She raised her thin eyelids slightly and saw the unconcealed concern on Ji Lin’s face.
Qiao Nian pressed the corners of her eyes. Frowning, she lowered her hand and looked into his eyes. "I’m fine. I was just thinking about something."
Ji Lin smiled. "It’s good that you’re fine."
He was not sure what Qiao Nian and Yu Xinlan talked about in the room, but since Qiao Nian said that it was fine, it should not be a big deal.
Qiao Nian’s plane was leaving Country M in the afternoon. There were still a few hours before takeoff.
She first returned to her hotel room and took a warm shower to wash away her fatigue.
The sound of water splashing sounded in the bathroom.
When the sound gradually stopped, the girl came out in a bathrobe.
Her thin collar bones peeked out from the bathrobe’s open collar. Her black hair dripped with water, and her entire body was enshrouded in steam.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
The girl pulled up her wet hair and secured it with a hair tie. Then, she strode over and opened the door.
"Qiao." Jian Jin greeted her. "Uh, were you showering?"
"Come in." Qiao Nian turned to let her in.
Jian Jin closed the door and followed.
"I heard from the Pharmacy Association that you’re leaving in the afternoon?"
