3102 Sister Nian Guessed Right, Lu Zhi Is After the Ninth Branch
Jian Jin had a headache when she saw who it was, but she picked it up patiently. “h.e.l.lo.
“She left?” Lu Zhi’s voice was emotionless.
Jian Jin immediately looked at the surveillance camera and understood that. Lu Zhi had long hacked into the hotel’s surveillance system. Everything in the entire hotel could not escape his eyes.
She snapped. “Ah, Qiao just left:
Lu Zhi was silent for a while.
Jian Jin did not feel good listening to the static. She couldn’t help but ask him, “Boss, what do you want?” “Mm?”
‘Just tell me the truth. Do you still want to make up with Qiao?”
Lu Zhi did not say anything.
Jian Jin said, “If you want to make up with Qiao, I’ll apologize to her. If you don’t want to make up with Qiao, just say it! I don’t want to be stuck in the middle.
She vented all her dissatisfaction in one go.
She thought that Lu Zhi would answer her directly. Unexpectedly, he was silent for a few minutes before saying, “Someone from the Ninth Branch is coming. Bring him up!
“The Ninth Branch?
Jian Jin’s mind buzzed!
Wasn’t that Ye w.a.n.gchuan’s territory?
Moreover, the Ninth Branch was a top-secret organization in Beijing. The areas they were involved in were all top-notch secrets in Country Z.
Why was anyone from the Ninth Branch looking for them?
Jian Jin recalled what. Qiao Nian had said and her scalp went numb. “Didn’t you… come to Beijing for Qiao?”
“He’ll be here soon. Bring him up! Lu Zhi did not tell her his motive.
Jian Jin opened her mouth, but no sound came out of her mouth.
She originally thought that she was the person who understood Lu Zhi the best in the world after being by his side for so long. However, she never even noticed what Qiao was talking about…
Jian Jin suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. A sour feeling surged into her heart and almost engulfed her.
To hide her sadness, she agreed readily. “Got it!”

Qiao Nian returned to her residence.
Master Cheng had just come out of the study. He smiled warmly and thanked her sincerely upon seeing her. “Nian Nian, thank you for this. Fortunately, I could speak to Elder Feng and Madam Xic with your help… Qiao Nian changed her shoes, returned the car keys to Qin Si, and casually replied, “It’s fine. As long as I can help you.”
“You’ve helped me a lot this time!” Master Cheng thanked her generously.
Qiao Nian’s head hurt. Still thinking about Lu Zhi, she went to the fridge and took out a bottle of iced c.o.ke. Facing Master Cheng’s grat.i.tude, she was a little distracted. “You’re my elder and have contributed to the country’s scientific research. There’s no reason not to help you!
Master Cheng was emotional at her reply. Ile did not continue with the pleasantries. After all, it would seem like he had let Qiao Nian down,
“Then I won’t thank you further!
“Mm.” Qiao Nian opened the can and realized she had only taken one bottle. Hence, she looked up at Master Cheng and the rest. “Do you want some?”
She looked scrious.
Master Cheng couldn’t help but laugh. He quickly shook his head, smiled, and said, “Torget about my old bones… I have a headache every time I drink these high-calorie things.”
Qiao Nian remembered he did not sleep well. Indeed, he needed to drink less carbonated drinks. She looked at the unfamiliar face beside him. “What about you?”
