Chapter 749: Met Miss Qiao a Few Times

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

“…” Qiao Nian didn’t expect him to really wait in line for an hour just to buy breakfast in the Imperial Mansion.

In her daze, her left hand was pulled up again.

His broad hand held her hand, his rough fingers pinching her fingertips. It was itchy and dry as if she had been electrocuted.

She looked up and, before she could frown, she heard the man’s deep and hoarse voice. “Heh, there’s finally some warmth.”

Qiao Nian was speechless.

Ye Wangchuan looked at the girl’s frustrated face and said, “Do you want to go out for a walk later?”

“Now?”

Qiao Nian’s attention was diverted; she had forgotten that someone was still holding her hand.

The weather in Beijing in December was quite cold, especially since the temperatures had dropped over the past two days. The weather had become even colder, so she was unwilling to go out.

“Not really…” She didn’t finish her sentence.

Ye Wangchuan said in a low voice, “I’ll make you hot pot tonight, but there are no ingredients in the fridge. If you want to eat, go out and buy some. Want some?”

The tastes in Beijing were generally mild. Qiao Nian herself was at a stage where she didn’t like spicy food.

She had eaten northern flavors all day yesterday and her food was very bland.

When she heard the word hot pot, she was indeed tempted and hesitated.

Ye Wangchuan had made hot pot once before, and the taste was not inferior to those sold outside. Even Jiang Li couldn’t forget it after eating it once.

At the mention of it, Qiao Nian recalled the taste of the hot pot.

She lowered her eyes and thought for less than a minute before coming up with a plan. She looked up at him and said, “Yes!”

“Then, will you go grocery shopping with me?” the man whispered with a smile.

A man who ate others had a short mouth and a soft heart. Qiao Nian had no objections. She shrugged her shoulders and said valiantly, “Yes, where are we going to buy ingredients?”

“There’s a supermarket outside the Ninth Branch. They have fresh food.” Already expecting her to agree, Ye Wangchuan immediately said, “There’s a cold drink shop beside the supermarket. The aloe vera is good. I’ll buy you a cup.”

Qiao Nian raised her eyes and did not reject him.

Following behind them, Gu San watched as his Master Wang took the opportunity to date with just a few words. He even took advantage of Miss Qiao a few times and made skinship with her. Gu San kept smacking his lips behind them with a wooden face and wondered deeply what was wrong with him. Wasn’t a single man looking for trouble by following the couple?!

“Then I’ll drive?”

Since they had agreed to buy things, Ye Wangchuan took out his car key and stopped in front of her.

“I’ll wait for you.” Qiao Nian didn’t have a car. At least, not for the time being in Beijing. When she came over after the college entrance examination, she would ask Aunt Yuan to get her a car. It would be easier to travel.

Ye Wangchuan drove off.

Gu San pulled Chen Zhu and found an excuse to leave.

Qiao Nian waited alone for the time being. While she waited, she played with her phone and game.

She had just opened it when she received a message from Wen Ruxia.

Qiao Nian raised her phone and looked down.

“Big boss Zhui Guang, I heard from Master Nie that you’re not coming to the event? What’s going on? What’s the reason?”

Qiao Nian’s slender fingers tapped the screen as she replied.

[I’m busy.]

It was quite concise.

Wen Ruxia replied after three seconds.

[Okay, I understand. Go busy yourself with your matters first. You can come again next time if you have the chance. By the way, there’s a final assessment at the event.. It mainly assesses the individual abilities of this batch of newcomers. Is it convenient for you? Can you help with the question?]
