Hearing the girlâs low and hoarse voice talking to his aunt casually, he couldnât help but raise his thin lips. In a good mood, he said, âBe more low-profile next time. You donât have to be so sincere and scare her. Itâll give her a chance to get in through the back door.â
Qiao Nian raised her eyebrows and looked at him with pure eyes. She nodded. âNext time.â
This time, she had already said it. It was too late to tell her to be less straightforward.
Ye Wangchuan chuckled. The green light happened to light up.
Qiao Nian looked at the road in front and turned to say to him, âI want to see Uncle Chen first.â
She had been busy with the college entrance examination recently and did not have time to go to the hospital.
Now that the exams were over, she definitely had to go to the hospital to take a look.
âOkay.â Ye Wangchuan turned the car around and drove in the direction of the city hospital.
On the other end, Ye Lan finally returned to her senses from her âsincereâ assessment. She said, âSince the exams are over, Nian Nian, do you want to come to Beijing to play?â
â...â Beijing?
Qiao Nian did not answer immediately.
Ye Lan tried her best to invite her over the phone again. âSince you have nothing to do after your exams, why donât you come to Beijing to play? You havenât had fun the last few times you came to Beijing. Iâll accompany you to visit the attractions this time. A few attractions here are pretty good. Do you like culture, shopping, or the natural scenery?â
âEither way is okay.â
She did not particularly like or hate any.
Ye Lan smiled. âI like nature. The beach is fun. Iâll bring you there to play. Itâs just a day of traveling back and forth. Itâs fun but not tiring.â Qiao Nian thought for a moment.
She heard a familiar old manâs voice coming from the other end. He was quite spirited and dignified. He coughed and said to her, âA few ancient buildings nearby are not bad. If you like that, I can bring you around. Some places are not open to the public. If I bring you there, there will be no tickets. I can even bring you inside to play.â There were only a few famous ancient buildings in Beijing. Qiao Nian knew what buildings he was talking about. Hearing this, she raised her eyes and looked to the side.
Ye Wangchuan did not expect Old Master Ye to be there, too. He was already so old, but he was still so thick-skinned to come over and join in the fun. Before Qiao Nian could say anything, he whispered, âGo if you want to. If you donât, just reject them. Thereâs no need to stand on ceremony with them.â
His voice was low, but the other side still heard him. Old Master Ye heard him clearly. He almost scolded his unfilial grandson!
Fortunately, he remembered that he was still on the phone, so he endured it in the end. However, his eyebrows were twitching very badly.
Qiao Nian glanced at him and changed her posture. She said to Ye Lan and Old Master Ye politely, âAunt Ye, Grandpa Ye, I want to wait until the results of the college entrance examination are out.â She did not plan to go to Beijing before the results of the college entrance examination were out.
However, she definitely had to go there. Qing University was in Beijing. If she wanted to study at a university, she had to stay in Beijing often.
Ye Lan immediately said, âItâs okay. You can consider it when your results are out. Anyway, let me know if you want to come over and play. Weâll pick you up at the airport. Iâll make time and bring you around.â
âOkay.â Qiao Nianâs eyes softened and she agreed readily.
Ye Lan chatted with her for a while longer before Qiao Nian hung up. She put away her phone and pressed the window with one hand.
Ye Wangchuan had already stopped the car at the entrance of the hospital. Before she got out, he raised his eyes and leaned forward elegantly. âYou promised me that you would give me an answer...â
The college entrance examination was over. Was it time for her to give him an answer?
