2340 Domineering Sister Nian, Who Are You Looking for?
Ye Wangchuan happened to be looking over, so he saw Ye Shanâs expression freeze. She did not even dare to reveal her indignance and immediately lowered her head.
Soon, the waiter served the dishes Ye Lan had ordered one by one.
Old Master Ye poured Qiao Nian a glass of fruit juice, gently saying, âJust drink the fruit juice. Tell Grandpa if any dishes suit your taste later. Iâll bring them to you.â
Qiao Nian saw him place the fruit juice in front of her and turn to talk to him, sensing that he was taking extra time to take care of her.
Qiao Nianâs heart warmed. She lowered her head slightly, picked up the chopsticks on the table, and began to eat unhurriedly.
Qiao Nian was the quiet type.
When Ye Keji or Old Master Ye brought the topic to her, she would only answer with one or two sentences.
If Old Master Ye and the others were talking about something else, Qiao Nian rarely interrupted. She just quietly ate her food with her head lowered.
Because Ye Wangchuan was also asking Wang Fei something, Ye Shan heaved a sigh of relief. Her gaze landed on the happy girl and she smiled gracefully. âQiao Nian, I heard that you want to enter the First Research Institute? I know a few people. Do you want me to help you ask them?â
The entire private room fell silent.
Old Master Ye and Ye Lanâs eyebrows twitched at the same time as they looked at the girl.
Qiao Nian had just picked up a piece of boiled meat with her chopsticks. Hearing this, her expression did not seem to change, and she only said lazily, âThereâs no need.â
However, Ye Shan misunderstood her. She thought that since she could not show that she did not like Qiao Nian on the surface, she could disgust her behind her back. Hence, she pretended to be enthusiastic. âYou really donât want to enter the First Research Institute? If you donât find connections, you probably wonât be able to enter by yourself. I just want to help you. Who asked you to be Wangchuanâs girlfriendâ¦â
Old Master Ye put down his chopsticks and said in a low voice, âYou canât shut up anymore, right?!â
Ye Shanâs face turned pale and her face flushed in embarrassment. She hurriedly opened her mouth. âI was just asking out of kindness.â
Ye Keji touched his forehead. He admired Ye Shanâs courage to court death even though she knew that she could not win it. He tried to smooth things over. âBy the way, have you contacted the Chamber of Commerce Alliance yet?â
Old Master Ye was annoyed to death by Ye Shan. Upon hearing Ye Kejiâs question, he knew that the other party wanted to ease the mood.
He retracted his gaze and said, âIâve asked Ye Lan to contact them. Thereâs still no reply.â
Ye Keji nodded, not surprised. âThe large factions on the independent continent are all so arrogant. Iâll go look for them with Ye Shan later. I wonder if theyâll give us face.â
Qiao Nian casually put down her chopsticks, wiped her mouth, and said, âAre you looking for someone from the Chamber of Commerce Alliance?â
Ye Keji turned to look at her, a little surprised that she would talk to him.
After all, when Ye Shan spoke just now, the girlâs expression remained indifferent. She had no intention of paying attention to her.
Ye Keji could not understand why Qiao Nian would suddenly ask him this, but he answered the girl good-naturedly, âThe Ye family has a business deal to discuss with them, but they havenât given us a reply for a long time. They didnât say if they were willing to come out and meet us, so weâre very passive.â
Qiao Nian nodded and took out her cell phone. âI know someone from the Chamber of Commerce Alliance. Who are you looking for?â
