Qiao Nian did not overthink. She picked up her baseball cap and put it on. âWait a moment. Iâll change my clothes.â

An hour later.
A small private plane quietly landed in the airport terminal of Continent M.
The ground crew was already waiting. A car was specially parked beside the runway.
It could be said to be against the rules.
However, it could also be seen that the personâs identity was extraordinary.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Ten minutes later, the cabin door opened.
A group of people came down one after another. Among them was an old man in his seventies, with especially eye-catching white hair. His posture was straight, and he did not let anyone help him as he steadily walked down the stairs.
As for the large group getting off the plane with grandiosity, if one took a closer look, one would realize they were actually surrounding this old man.
Everyoneâs attention was on the old man.
The white-haired old master steadily walked down the last step of the stairs. His assistant quickly walked over and carefully said, âMr. Auburn, the car is ready.â
âOkay.â
The white-haired old man was about to get into the car.
At this moment, a woman in a light-colored sweater and knit top walked forward with a smile and blocked his path.
She smiled and said, âGrandpa, an elder asked me out for a meal. Do you have time? Why donât you accompany me later?â
The white-haired old man immediately frowned. âWhich elder?â
Daisy was a little embarrassed by his stern tone. She held his arm and shook it coquettishly. âA-Auntie Nie.â
Auntie Nie.
The white-haired old man immediately understood which Auntie Nie she was talking about. His gaze became sharp as he stared at the woman like a hook.
The people who got off the plane were still there. Daisy felt even more awkward and could only pretend not to see them. She continued to wave her hand and persuade him. âAuntie Nie has a younger brother who is also a physics scientist. Itâs said that heâs young, promising, and very talented. I also want you to meet and get to know himâ¦â
âDidnât you see the recent news?â The old man in white did not buy it at all. Looking at her dumbfounded expression, he said indifferently, âI have my own principles and bottom line. I canât meet such a tainted scientist, let alone know him.â
His words implied there was no room for negotiation.
Daisy was very embarrassed. She blushed and said in a low voice, âBut Iâve already promised Auntie Nie!â
The Auburn familyâs younger generation had many descendants, but she was the youngest and the most favored. She had also grown up by Mr. Auburnâs side.
She was pampered like a pearl.
Daisy naturally thought that a meal was not a big deal. As long as she acted coquettishly, there was no reason for her grandfather to disagree and insist on embarrassing her.
âIâve already agreed to Auntie Nie.â She ignored the people still around and said anxiously with a red face, âIf you donât go, Iâll be very embarrassed.â
Unfortunately, she did not get what she wanted this time. The white-haired old man only glanced at her pouting expression and said frankly, âThatâs because you rashly agreed without asking my opinion. Youâll have to bear the consequences. Besides, even if Iâm willing to meet a tainted scientist, I donât have the timeâ¦â
His granddaughter raised her eyes in confusion. âWhy?â
Auburn said, âBecause I already have an appointment with someone else.â
When the two of them spoke, there were other people around.
