3076 You Won’t Be Called That Name Anymore, Your Name Will Be Yuan Dai

Zhou Zheng saw he did not want to let it go. He didn’t want to be burdened nor lose his backer, so he anxiously tried to persuade him.

Nie Qixing pulled the woman over.

The woman cried out in surprise and fell onto his lap. She was so frightened that her shoulders trembled. Her eyelashes were filled with tears, and she looked beautiful.

Nie Qixing lifted her chin roughly and admired her face. He carefully examined every inch of her face.

The woman’s facial features were exquisite and her appearance was outstanding…

She did look 60% similar to the person he was looking for. She even looked 70% to 80% similar from one or two angles.

He stared at her face. His tone was as cultured as ever as he asked, “What’s your name?”

The woman forced herself to calm down and did not dare to look him in the eye as she bit her lips and whispered a name.

Nie Qixing did not listen. It was as if he was just asking casually. He opened his mouth and domineeringly said, “You won’t be called by that name anymore.”

The woman raised her head and looked at him in confusion.

Nic Qixing caressed her face as if he were looking at someone he loved deeply. “Your name is Yuan Dai!

This name came from a poctic line.

Secing that he did not seem to care about Qiao Nian anymore, Zhou Zheng tactfully stood up and smiled. “Young Master Qi, I still have something on, so I’ll be leaving first.”

He slipped out without waiting for Nie Qixing’s reply, closing the door on his way out to give the two of them some privacy.

The next day.

Qiao Nian went to Qing University to find Nie Mi and test the arrangement in the big music cla.s.sroom. The girl was still dressed simply, revealing her bone-deep unruliness. Her ten fingers plucked the strings of the konghou.

The song was majestic. Be it in terms of her skills or the rhythm, it was perfect!

After the song ended, Qiao Nian put the konghou down, stood up, walked towards the old man, and asked him, “How is it? Can this arrangement be used?”

Nie Mi was still mesmerized. Only now did he come back to his senses. His eyes lit up and he said regretfully, “I heard from the princ.i.p.al that you have to take another six-month leave?”

Qiao Nian lowered her head and untied the bandage on her finger before casually replying, “More or less. We can resolve that matter in half a year if everything goes smoothly. Otherwise, I might have to take another half a year off.”

She did not want to drag it out for too long.

According to her estimation, it would be best to settle the matter within a year.

Nie Mi didn’t know what she was talking about. He only knew it had something to do with her mother, so he did not probe further. He stood up and asked, “When are you leaving?”

‘In the next two days.” Qiao Nian threw the used bandage into the trash can.

Seeing that she had pulled down her baseball cap to cover her eyes again, Nie Mi nodded and answered her first question. “This arrangement is fine. I’ve already submitted it. By the way… Because of you, we’ve taken in

dozens more students for the Traditional Music Department, this year. Everyone is working hard to nurture them. I’m checking to see if there are any children with the potential to be nurtured. In the future, I’ll let outsiders see that our traditional konghou is not inferior to the cello!”

Qiao Nian took her things and put her phone in her pocket before turning to him and saying, “Then I’ll be leaving”
