Chapter 1075: Chapter 1074: 1074: Confrontation Head-On

Jian Dan didn’t know when she had fallen asleep, but she knew it was already after three in the afternoon when a phone call woke her up~

Opening her eyes, she noticed Mu Yi looking at her.

As soon as Jian Dan opened her eyes, Mu Yi quickly looked away from her.

Jian Dan didn’t dwell on it and picked up the phone, “Zimo sister~”

“Where are you? I’ll come pick you up now!”

“Huh?”

“I found a really good restaurant, I’ll take you there!”

“Oh! Sure! I’ll send you my location!”

After hanging up the phone, she sent her location to her sister.

After sending it, she noticed that there were many messages from Uncle on WeChat: Jian Jian, How did the negotiation go? What time will you be home?

Remember to eat!

Have you eaten yet?

What are you doing?

Let me know when you’re done, I’ll come pick you up!

After reading them, Jian Dan replied to Chu Liyuan with a message: Uncle, Zimo sister is taking me out for something delicious, she’ll send me home afterward, don’t worry!

Chu Liyuan had been distracted all day today, he wanted to talk to Jian Jian about Xiao Ying’s situation but feared that he might mess things up, so he could only send her those messages, and yet he never received a reply from Jian Jian.

Finally, when he got one, it turned out to be the news that she would be home late.

Frustrated, Chu Liyuan slammed his phone down on the desk, his thumbs massaging his temples… “Mu Yi, I have something else to attend to later. I have to go now. Thanks for today!”

“No problem!”

Mu Yi watched Jian Dan’s retreating figure, stretching out his hand, wanting to ask how her back was, but in the end, he held back until Jian Dan had completely disappeared from his sight before he left.

When Jian Dan was changing clothes just now, she noticed her entire back was bruised; no wonder it hurt so much.

While waiting for Qiu Zimo, moving her arms even slightly made her feel excruciating pain.

“Lass, get in the car~”

Jian Dan got into the car, enduring the pain~

“What’s wrong?” Qiu Zimo’s eyes would not be easily fooled.

“Hehe~ Zimo sister, you noticed?”

“How could I not?”

“I just went diving, and accidentally hit the water with my back first~”

“Why did you go diving if you had nothing else to do?”

“Just curious, I wanted to try it!”

“Tell the truth!” Who does Qiu Zimo think she is?

Jian Dan’s little tricks couldn’t possibly escape her eyes.

Jian Dan kept her head down and remained silent, So Qiu Zimo said, “Then I’ll ask Chu Liyuan!”

Seeing Qiu Zimo take out her phone, Jian Dan hurriedly stopped her.

“Am I the one talking, or is he?”

“I~ I’ll talk!”@@novelbin@@

Jian Dan then told Qiu Zimo everything from top to bottom.

Qiu Zimo’s expression didn’t change much, just a slight furrow in her brow.

“Why would you, the empress, be afraid of someone who couldn’t even be considered a concubine?”

“Ah?”

“What’s with that ‘ah’? Why are you so spineless? In this situation, you should confront it head-on!” Qiu Zimo said assertively.

“Confront it head-on!”

“You have the looks and the brains, and most importantly, you have the evidence! With such an inherent advantage, why wouldn’t you confront the issue? Bring out the same spirit you have when dealing with green tea bitches; there’s no difference from before!”

“Zimo sister, you’re absolutely right, why didn’t I think of that?”

“You’ve been overthinking it!”

“Thank you, Zimo sister~”

“I just don’t want my little sister to embarrass me, that’s all.”

Seeing her sister’s tough exterior but tender heart, Jian Dan’s mouth curled into a slight smile, “I won’t embarrass you, I won’t embarrass you!”

“Are we still going to eat?”

“Of course, I have to refuel, how else will I fight when I get back!”

Qiu Zimo’s lips secretly curved into a slight smile.

After eating with Qiu Zimo, Qiu Zimo personally escorted Jian Dan back to Li Garden

“Remember! Confront it head-on!”

“I remember, don’t worry! Zimo sister!”

After Qiu Zimo left, Jian Dan took a deep breath and walked into Li Garden…
