Madam’s Identities Shocks the Entire City Again



The next round would be held the day after the first round. Firstly, the people who participated in the first round were tired, and secondly, the research institute needed time to prepare.

Therefore, the people who stayed behind mostly wanted to see if they had entered the second round or not. They also wanted to see their scores.

They were not going to undergo the second round of assessment immediately.

"Yes." Ji Ziyin's expression softened a little, but her overall expression still looked heavy.

* * *

The second round of the assessment would be held tomorrow.

Qiao Nian went back with Qin Si and the others after she finished looking at the scores.

She received a call from Nan Tianyi as soon as she arrived at her residence.

Qiao Nian got out of the car and picked up her bag with one hand. "Uncle Nan."

She had become familiar with him during this period of time. As she called his wife Aunt, Nan Tianyi also asked Qiao Nian to call him Uncle.

"I heard that you passed the first round of the assessment? You even scored full marks?" The male voice on the other end of the cell phone was filled with joy for her.

Qiao Nian entered the residence and informed Qin Si and the others before going upstairs with her bag.

After getting upstairs, she casually answered Nan Tianyi's question. "Yes, I was lucky."

"This is not something that can be done with luck."

Xie Tingyun was in the First Research Institute back then. How could Nan Tianyi not know how abnormal their assessment was?

Therefore, he did not believe her explanation at all.

However, he was all smiles and did not insist on arguing with Qiao Nian about whether she was lucky or not. Instead, he said, "Just now, the people from the research institute called me to ask about you. I didn't say much. I only said that you were studying at Qing University."

Qiao Nian had already returned to her room and pulled open the curtains. Sunlight shone in through the glass window, illuminating the room.

Then, she went to the desk and pulled out a chair to sit down before answering him. "It doesn't matter if you tell them. They'll know why I came to the Independent Continent sooner or later."

"That's true," Nan Tianyi replied. He pondered for a moment and added, "Then, I'll tell them the truth when they call again later."

Qiao Nian's eyes were filled with arrogance as she hummed softly and said casually, "Tell them the truth."

Right on the heels of that, Nan Tianyi told her that the entire research institute was shocked about her results.

Qiao Nian was not interested in this. Instead, she asked him about Xie Tingyun's health.

After understanding that Xie Tingyun's health had been good for the past few days and that her various indicators were gradually recovering, she told Nan Tianyi about the medicine and hung up.

Qiao Nian had just hung up when an unfamiliar number called in.

She held the phone with her slender fingers with narrowed eyes as she looked at the Independent Continent number displayed on the screen.

She waited a full five seconds before picking it up. "Hello?"

The person paused for half a second before reacting. Then, he hurriedly said, "Hello, Miss Qiao. I'm He Lin, the one who sent you a message previously. Have you seen my message? It's like this. The Ji family wants you to come back. Look at your…"

Qiao Nian did not wait for him to finish and hung up expressionlessly. She then immediately blocked the number.

Next, she threw her phone on the desk, picked up the hard-shell notebook Xie Tingyun gave her, flipped to the question that Ye Wangchuan had told her yesterday, and looked at it again.
