1709 They Might Think You Know Someone From Bright Gate
âThis morning, Master Cheng and I received an invitation from the Ji family inviting us to their banquet.
âHowever, the other party has a condition. You have to go with us.â
Nie Mi was a little confused.
âYou used to live around the city and never came out. I donât understand why the other party insisted that you go. Itâs probably related to the auction yesterday.â
It wasnât as if Nie Mi and the others didnât have any connections in the Independent Continent. After hearing some news, he said to Qiao Nian in frustration, âI heard that the president of the Chamber of Commerce Alliance has been captured. They might think that this matter has something to do with you, so they want to see you.â
The girl had been holding the bottle cap in her hand as she listened to him. The arrogance in her eyes was restrained as she heard what he said. She raised her eyebrows slightly and inadvertently revealed a faint light, but she did not interrupt.
Nie Mi didnât believe that Torreâs matter had anything to do with Qiao Nian at all. He only thought that it was a coincidence. He looked at her and asked seriously, âNian Nian, Iâve discussed it with Master Cheng. We both think that this is an opportunity.
âThe Ji familyâs status in the Independent Continent is extremely high. I havenât come into contact with anyone on their level yet. To be able to attend a banquet of this level at your age, I think the benefits outweigh the disadvantages!
âEven if you donât know anyone through the banquet in the end, you can at least meet the top circle of the Independent Continent.â
Nie Mi only analyzed the pros and cons with her briefly. He had no intention of forcing Qiao Nian to choose. He asked her gently, âNian Nian, what do you think?â
He turned to look at Master Cheng, then turned back and said to the girl, âWeâve agreed to follow your decision. If you want to go, weâll go. If you donât want to go, we wonât go. Donât feel any psychological burden. The other party is mainly inviting you, and weâre just here to bring you along. It doesnât matter if you go or not.â
This was indeed a rare opportunity.
They were probably the only ones on the team who had received this invitation.
Logically speaking, they had no reason to reject such an opportunity.
However, Nie Mi, Master Cheng, and the others had already discussed it. It was up to Qiao Nian.
If Qiao Nian wanted to go, she could. If she didnât, they wouldnât go.
After all, at their age, they didnât care much about fame and fortune. If they were fated, they would embrace it. If they werenât fated, they wouldnât harp on it.
Coupled with the other people in the scientific research team, such as Jiang Zongjinâs younger generation of middle-aged people, most of them had the same values as him.
Buddhism!
He had the same thoughts as them.
If she wanted to go, they would go. If she didnât go, they wouldnât be disappointed.
Nie Miâs eyes were gentle as he asked her softly, âSo, you can slowly think about whether you want to go or not. We came to look for you to tell you about this.â
âWhat time is it?â
Qiao Nianâs faint voice sounded as soon as he finished speaking.
Nie Mi was stunned for a moment before he reacted. âThe day after tomorrow.â
âThe day after tomorrow?â
Calculating the time, Qiao Nian capped the bottle and put it back on the table. Then she looked up at him and said, âIâll go.â
The other party had already invited her.
They even invited her by name.
Qiao Nian couldnât find a reason to refuse!
She would go.
Why not?
Coincidentally, she also wanted to see them.
âHuh?â She agreed so readily that Nie Mi couldnât keep up for a moment. He was stunned for a moment. Seeing that the girl had indeed agreed to go, he rubbed his nose. âThen, Iâll tell them that weâre going.â
