1927 Master Wang: Aren't You Going to Reply?
She called the waiter to pay the bill and was about to return to the research institute.
Unexpectedly, when she walked out of the café, she saw the girl across the road. She didn't go far and walked to a black coupe.
A man was standing beside the sedan.
From afar, she could see a young man wearing a long black windbreaker. His figure was outstanding, and his aura was strong. He was very eye-catching.
She saw the other party naturally take Qiao Nian's shoulder bag and open the car door for her.
Then, the girl got into the car.
The man walked around to the driver's seat and also got in.
Soon, the black sedan disappeared around the corner, completely out of sight.
Zhou Zhou stood rooted to the ground for a long time before she remembered where she had seen that person before. It was on the day Qiao Nian went to the research institute to register for the assessment. She had picked her up and seemed to have seen this person.
She remembered… that person was the big boss' boyfriend.
The kind she personally verified.
As Zhou Zhou walked back to find her car, she found her cell phone and hurriedly sent a message in the group chat, telling that she had met the big boss's boyfriend today.
Black Mandala had a small group.
Usually, no one spoke in the group chat.
Today, Zhou Zhou appeared and posted gossip about Qiao Nian.
The group chat became abnormally active.
[Guan Yan: Did you see him? What does that person look like?]
[Going against the current: Handsome!]
[Emperor Qing: Is he as handsome as me? o(⊙_⊙)o]
[Guan Yan: No picture means it's not the truth. I don't believe you! I'll believe you if you post a picture.]
Zhou Zhou glanced at the car running on the road. There was no trace of exhaust left. She had already walked to the car, opened the door, and inserted the car key. Only then did she reply happily in the group chat.
[Going against the current: She's already gone. Don't goad me. I can't take the photo. @Guan Yan]
There was another call from the research institute.
Zhou Zhou did not look at the group chat anymore as she stuffed her Bluetooth earpiece into her ear and said, "I'll be right back."
Then, she hung up, started the car, and drove toward the First Research Institute.

On the other side.
Qiao Nian was also in a car.
Not long after she got into the car, she received a private message from Guan Yan.
Qiao Nian looked down, opened it, and saw the vicious words.
[Guan Yan: Boss, have you changed your man? Zhou Zhou just said that she saw your boyfriend picking you up. I remember that you're in the Independent Continent. Did you dump the man in the illegal district I saw last time?]
Qiao Nian placed her hand on her phone, speechless for a long time.
Previously, when she was in the illegal district, she had asked Guan Yan to send something to Ye Wangchuan.
Guan Yan only bumped into Qin Si. She left the things at the door and left, not seeing Ye Wangchuan.
However, she knew that Qiao Nian asked her to give it to someone else in the room.
Hence, Guan Yan had always known that Ye Wangchuan existed.
"Why are you looking at your cell phone?" Ye Wangchuan's hands were long and well-proportioned. There was no fat on their backs, and his knuckles were well-defined. He looked exceptionally beautiful.
As he drove, he could still notice the girl's every move. He lowered his eyes, his thin lips curving up in concentration. His face was extremely perfect, handsome and unique.
Deciding not to reply to the message, Qiao Nian put down her phone and replied lazily, "A friend asked about something."
"Aren't you going to reply?" Ye Wangchuan raised his eyebrows.
Qiao Nian nodded and said lazily, "Ah, I'm not going to reply. There's nothing to reply to…"
She didn't want to cooperate with these people's gossipy desires. Once she did, they would post her reply in the group chat.
