Chapter 1083 - I Don't Know Where Qiao Nian Lives

Qiao Nian propped her straight and long legs up and stood casually. She retracted her gaze and had no objections. She only said, "There's no need. I can go back by myself."

"How could…"

He wasn't done speaking when Qiao Nian spoke simply and naturally, "I'm not staying at the Jiang family's house."

Before Qiao Nian came to Beijing from Rao City, Jiang Zongjin had gone to the illegal district with his team to participate in the scientific research exchange. He didn't know anything.

He was stunned upon suddenly hearing that Qiao Nian had come to Beijing but did not stay at home. "If you're not staying at home, where are you staying? A hotel?"

He frowned. Although he had already restrained himself in front of Qiao Nian, his expression still revealed dissatisfaction and shock.

What was the meaning of this?

Nian Nian came to Beijing to study, but she was actually staying in a hotel?

Ever since Jiang Zongjin lost his daughter, he had been immersed in research and often did not return.

He had a small apartment for school boarding not far from the laboratory. It had a room and a living room. He would sleep in the small apartment when he was busy. There was food and accommodation there. His life was simple and busy, but he used this busyness to greatly relieve the pain of losing his daughter…

He could live a simple life and did not care about material things

However, he wouldn't allow Qiao Nian to be treated lightly!

Jiang Li was beside him. Clearly feeling that he was a little angry, he quickly mediated by the side. "Nian Nian isn't staying in a hotel."

When Jiang Zongjin was not facing Qiao Nian, he was still very serious and dignified when facing others. His hands hung by his side, clearly not a person who was easy to fool. "She's not staying in a hotel or at home. Then, where is she staying?"

Qiao Nian saw that he was furious and that he wanted to stand up for her. She lowered her eyes and suppressed the warmth in them. Not making things difficult for Jiang Li, she said, "I'm staying in my apartment."

"Apartment?" Jiang Zongjin was still worried, but his attitude was not as serious as towards Jiang Li. His firm aura instantly dropped as he asked worriedly, "Are you living alone? Why are you living in an apartment and not at home? You live alone outside with no one to take care of you. There are so many people at home, and you have someone to take care of you there. I…"

"I'm not used to interacting with too many people." Qiao Nian placed her hands in her pockets and turned to the side. Her posture was clearly casual, but she forcefully revealed a hint of banditry. She explained to Jiang Zongjin, "I like to stay alone. Grandpa knows that too."

"Dad knows?" Jiang Zongjin fell silent.

He frowned, clearly not agreeing with Qiao Nian living outside alone. He couldn't understand what Old Master Jiang meant.

He hesitated for a moment and seemed to compromise. He looked up at Qiao Nian and said gently, "Where's your apartment? I'll send you there and take a look."

In his heart, this was the first time Qiao Nian had come to Beijing from Rao City. She was unfamiliar with the city, and the prices in Beijing were high. He had been overseas previously, and no one had helped Qiao Nian arrange her residence.

Of course, he believed in his father's love for his granddaughter, but Old Master Jiang was not in good health after all. He needed to stay in the sanatorium all year round and could not leave it.

Jiang Li was also a public figure…

Jiang Zongjin was afraid that Qiao Nian would materialistically, so he decided to follow her to see where she lived. If the environment was too bad, he would immediately change Qiao Nian's residence!
