Madam’s Identities Shocks the Entire City Again

Qiao Nian looked at the date and narrowed her eyes.

October 18th.

It wasn't the 19th.

She put the phone back to her ear. There seemed to be a flickering light in her eyes. Half of her face was hidden in the sunlight, and her emotions could not be seen. "Didn't you say that you would be back on the 19th?"

A light chuckle came from the other end of the call. It was sweet and charming. "I stayed up all night last night and finished my work in advance, so I came back early."

Qiao Nian looked away uncomfortably. Then, she remembered that a certain someone was only on the phone and wasn't there.

She calmed down again and asked, "You're at the airport?"

Qiao Nian had just taken a shower when Jiang Li called her, saying that He Congming had come to the hospital, so she rushed over without bringing anything.

She only had her phone with her.

She looked at the cars on the road and started walking.

"Which terminal are you at? I'll take a taxi and come over right away."

Seeing that she was about to leave, Qin Si was stunned for a moment before shouting, "Sister Qiao, where are you going?"

Qiao Nian stopped in her tracks, wondering what to say to him.

The man's clear voice came from the other end of the phone. "I've already left the airport. I have to go back to the Ye family to settle some matters."

Out of the corner of her eye, Qiao Nian saw a taxi and was about to wave it over when she heard this. She raised her eyebrows, not understanding why he called her.

He didn't want her to pick him up, so why did he call her?

Just as Qiao Nian was musing about this…

His voice was neither fast nor slow as he slowly said, "I wanted to call you as soon as the plane landed. Later, I thought that since I still had to go back to the Ye family, I might as well wait until I was done before looking for you. That was my original plan, but I suddenly wanted to hear your voice."

He seemed to sigh again, and his voice was as gentle as water. "Nian Nian, what should I do? I miss you a little."

Qiao Nian's heart raced as if drumbeats were beating against her chest. She didn't know how to answer.

Fortunately, he knew when to stop. He immediately said in a soothing tone, "I'm here. Where are you? I'll pick you up when I'm done."

Qiao Nian turned to look at the hospital and said casually, "City General Hospital."

"Okay," he said. "I'll pick you up later."

Qiao Nian hummed and hung up.

She put her phone back in her pocket and turned around to face Qin Si. Her eyes were frivolous and bandit-like as she said lazily, "I won't go to the birthday party. I'll give Zhang Yang a red packet later. Wish him a happy birthday on my behalf."

Qin Si looked at her. "Then tonight…"

"I have an appointment." Qiao Nian had told Gu San before that she would treat him to a meal when he returned.

Since he was back, Gu San must be back too.

She should be eating out tonight.

Qin Si wanted to ask her who she was going with, but he remembered the voice on the other end of the phone. He couldn't hear it clearly, but he was too familiar with that voice. The person who called Sister Qiao just now was obviously Master Wang.

He immediately felt like he had been stuffed with dog food!

He felt a little stifled.

However, he had good self-regulation ability and comforted himself. Other than Master Wang, he seemed to be surrounded by single dogs. It was nothing.

Qin Si felt better. He looked at Qiao Nian again and said calmly, "Alright, I'll pass the message to him."
