Shen Qiongzhi stood beside her and watched her drink milk. She was silent for a while before suddenly mentioning, âOh, right, Chen Chen. When you saw Qiao Nian todayâ¦â
She also knew that Qiao Chen had sent an invitation to Qiao Nian. She had been busy greeting guests the entire day and did not have the energy to notice who had come today or not.
Now that she suddenly remembered, she asked Qiao Chen.
Before she could finish speaking, Qiao Chen slowly put down the mug in her hand. Her gentle eyes looked quite cold. Before she could finish, she said, âShe didnât come.â
âShe didnât come? Sheâ¦â Shen Qiongzhi subconsciously frowned, not hiding her disgust.
Qiao Chen placed the cup on the coffee table. Her eyes were gentle as she said casually, âI asked her classmate. They said that she applied for a long leave for the school.â
âItâs almost time for the college entrance examination, but sheâs still taking leave.â
After Shen Qiongzhi finished speaking, she realized that Qiao Nian didnât need to take the college entrance examination, unlike Qiao Chen. She could still enter a famous school, and her results were even higher than Qiao Chenâs.
The stifled feeling she had during dinner today surfaced again. She was feeling extremely uncomfortable, but she still had to force herself to look like she didnât care about this matter as much as Qiao Chen.
âSheâs probably fooling around somewhere again!â
Shen Qiongzhi was angry, and her tone was naturally unfriendly. âIsnât she that kind of person? She canât stop for a day. If she doesnât fool around outside, she canât possibly know Yuan Yongqin and the others.â
Talking about Cheng Feng Corporation and Yuan Yongqin was like a fishbone stabbing into her heart. It made her feel terrible every time she thought of it.
Naturally, she didnât have a good impression of Qiao Nian. She said coldly, âJust let her be. I want to see how sheâll fare. The Jiang family has never admitted to having a person like her. When we get to Beijing, youâll have the support of your uncle and the others. If she doesnât have a backer, thatâll be all. Beijing is filled with crouching tigers and hidden dragons. There are many talented people. When we get to Beijing, sheâll know that Yuan Yongqin is nothing there! She can only dream if she still wants to rely on her relationship with Yuan Yongqin to be able to do whatever she wants in Beijing like in Rao City!â
Qiao Chen didnât reply, but the corners of her mouth curled up.
Saying nothing was equivalent to admitting it.
Shen Qiongzhi was filled with anger at the mention of Qiao Nian. She simply couldnât be bothered to think about it and spoke to Qiao Chen, who had her eyes lowered. âBy the way, Chen Chen, you should be preparing for that reggae music you mentioned just now. If you can prepare in advance, you must do so in case you suffer.â
âI know, Mom, donât worry.â Qiao Chen hadnât clung to her arm for a long time. This time, she rarely held her arm. She smiled gently and said shyly, âBrother Fu helped me find a music teacher. Heâs also a top student from the music department at Qing University. He was hired by the Wen family. Iâll discuss it with the teacher and see what he says.â
Shen Qiongzhi felt completely relieved when she heard this. She patted her arm and smiled slightly. âItâs good that youâre confident. I trust you.â
âMm.â
Qiao Chen restrained the arrogance in her eyes and lowered her eyelashes.
As long as she couldnât chase after the limelight, she was confident that she wouldnât lose to anyone. She was definitely going to be in the limelight at this event!
As for going to Beijing in the future, she wasnât afraid of Qiao Nian.
Qiao Nian was going to the worst Chinese Medicine faculty at Qing University. She was going to major in the Music Department, followed by the Finance Department. Double majors in university were popular majors. It wasnât certain who would be more outstanding!
â¦
In Beijing, Ninth Branch.
Qiao Nian had no idea that she would be remembered despite not being in Rao City.
