Chapter 686: Looking at a Nemesis

That was when Ye Wangchuan chuckled and asked her, “You need the laptop?”

Qiao Nian turned to him and then diverted her gaze quickly. She felt slightly annoyed that he was flirting with her. “I didn’t bring my USB and can’t copy it. I definitely need the laptop.”

“Alright. I’ll get Gu San to pass it to you later.” Ye Wangchuan smiled. His eyes softened when he noticed her avoiding his gaze.

Zhou Wei was losing it. She looked at this handsome man incredulously and felt her heart palpitate.

Was Master Wang joking?

The laptop contained information that the Ninth Branch was researching. Automated technology was one of the most popular technologies in the world, and everyone was vying to catch up.

Their progress wasn’t exceptionally fast. If they accidentally leaked any information at this point…

Zhou Wei didn’t dare to imagine it.

She also couldn’t understand why Ye Wangchuan would believe that a high school student would be able to solve a problem in two days when she couldn’t even in three months! He even wanted to let her take such an important device back with her!

More shocking things followed.

After talking about the automated technology, Ye Wangchuan casually mentioned, “Oh right, I need your help for one more thing.”

“Mm?” Qiao Nian side-eyed him with some annoyance. She almost said: You’re asking for a lot, huh.

But she held it in.

“What’s the matter?”

Ye Wangchuan looked at her beautiful side view and couldn’t help but smile. His voice went lower as he said, “It’s not anything big. One of my elders is ill and suffering from migraines. I want to ask you to have a look at him. If you have the time, I’ll take you to him.”

Bam.

Zhou Wei accidentally knocked over the cup by her hand. Her pretty face went pale, and she spat: “Master Wang, we’ve consulted so many experts in and outside the country, and none of them has proved effective for Master Cheng. How could a high school student do anything about it?”

She looked at Qiao Nian unpleasantly, took a deep breath, then continued, “Liang Lu has also attended to Master Cheng, but to no avail. Can she be better than Liang Lu?”

What a joke. How could a high school student be better than a leading neurologist! Who would believe this!

If Master Wang wanted to take Qiao Nian to Master Cheng, that would mean bringing her to the Ninth Branch.

The Ninth Branch wasn’t a place that anyone could visit!

This was her bottom line, and she couldn’t accept it.

Bo Jingxing and Luo Qing didn’t say anything, but they had mixed feelings about it too. They shared Zhou Wei’s sentiments and felt that Qiao Nian wouldn’t be able to be of help for Master Cheng.

Only Gu San looked at Zhou Wei like she was a nemesis!

He was short of retorting her.

Who said that Miss Qiao couldn’t do it, or that she wasn’t as good as Liang Lu?

Haha!

Miss Qiao was indeed better than Liang Lu.

Old Master Wei’s condition said it all!

Back then, when the Wei Family turned to Liang Lu, it was Miss Qiao who eventually saved him!

Miss Qiao was also the Rao City Miracle Doctor on the black market whom everyone was looking for.

What was wrong with someone of this status taking a look at Master Cheng?

Qiao Nian could sense Zhou Wei’s unfriendliness, and also the skeptical glances from Bo Jingxing and Luo Qing.. She looked away and pulled down her cap, then said coldly, “I’m not free.”
