2034 Sister Nian: Accompany Me Somewhere
Mo Xi ordered a drink for the girl the moment Xu Yi left.
The waiter quickly brought over the lemonade with ice. When they saw Qiao Nian's appearance, they could not help but be stunned for a second.
This girl was too good-looking!
At this moment, Qiao Nian happened to raise her eyelids and look in her direction. With just a casual glance, the female shopkeeper's face suddenly turned red. She hurriedly put down the drink and spoke in a weak voice. Then, she quickly walked away with the tray of drinks, not daring to look at Qiao Nian again.
"Miss Qiao, you're too…" Mo Xi saw this scene and sighed.
"Huh?" Qiao Nian picked up her drink. It was cold. Hearing this, she looked lazily in his direction.
It was obvious that she did not get what he meant.
Mo Xi was speechless.
He wanted to say that Qiao Nian was too attractive, but he had a high EQ and knew how to conduct himself better than Mo Dong. Before he spoke, he felt that his words would be too ambiguous. Afraid that Qiao Nian would think wrongly, he tactfully swallowed his evaluation of her.
"No, nothing. It was just something random." Compared to Mo Dong, Mo Xi's temperament was more refined and amiable.
He was also in a suit and leather shoes, but compared to Mo Dong's undisguised bloody aura, Mo Xi was more like a refined businessman.
It was obvious that he was a smart person.
Qiao Nian wasn't familiar with him and didn't care much about what he was about to say.
She lowered her almond-shaped eyes slightly and knocked her fair fingers on the drink cup. Suddenly, she looked up and asked, "Accompany me somewhere?"
"Huh?" Stunned for a moment, Mo Xi looked at her and asked respectfully, "Miss Qiao, where do you want to go?"
Qiao Nian took a sip of her drink and put it back on the table. Then, she picked up her shoulder bag, placed it on her shoulder, and calmly said, "The Ji family."

The Ji family's old residence was halfway up the mountain. It was an ancient manor in a Gothic style.
The manor's exterior building was very dignified. It occupied a large area and almost surrounded the entire mountainside behind the manor.
The manor's exterior looked to be dominated by the European Gothic style, but the inside was hidden.
Small bridges and flowing water in Chinese-style garden buildings were everywhere in the manor. The wooden corridor in the courtyard extended long across the garden and led one directly to the living room of the old residence.
He Lin was the first to know that Qiao Nian had come to the old residence.
"Who did you say is here to visit?" His eyes widened in disbelief as he stared fixedly at the small fry who had come to report.
At first, he thought he had heard wrongly.
"You said Young…"
He almost let it slip, but he reacted quickly and immediately changed his words. "You said that Miss Qiao is here to visit?"
He Lin was really confused by Qiao Nian's actions. Previously, he had tried his best to invite her here, but she had never come to the Ji family.
The person who had been unwilling to come was here now?
"Yes, she came with someone from Bright Gate. She said she's here to get something."
After all, He Lin was Ji Lingfeng's right-hand man. He did not panic when something happened and immediately instructed the lackey to bring him to the living room.
He quickly went to look for Ji Lingfeng.

Half an hour later.
Qiao Nian and Mo Xi were already sitting in the living room. The servants brought them two cups of tea.
Mo Xi looked at the girl as she acted as if she was at home. She picked up the teacup very calmly, lowered her eyes, and took a sip casually.
