Chapter 5406 Sister Nian Is Here Too
“…Ah!” Ye Maoshan sighed as he looked at him. His eyes had countless words to say, but they were swallowed back when he touched Ye Wangchuan’s eyes that resisted indifference.
…
Qiao Nian heard the news on the car on the way here. The news flash talked about Li Zhou’s death in a car accident this morning.
She found Ye Maoshan as soon as she arrived at the old house. As expected, she saw Ye Wangchuan here, and she also saw Liang Conglin unexpectedly.
“Miss Qiao, please take a seat.” The old housekeeper led her to pull out a chair and waited respectfully on the side for the girl to take a seat.
The girl did not sit down immediately, but raised her eyes and greeted Liang Conglin first: “Hello, principal.”
“Hey, hey, hey!” Liang Conglin knew her status and dared not accept her politeness. He quickly stood up and responded, showing that he was very respectful.
Qiao Nian's dark eyes turned, and then fell on Ye Maoshan and called out: "Grandpa Ye."
Ye Maoshan relaxed his eyebrows and invited her: "Come to see Wangchuan? Since you are here, sit down and have breakfast."
Qiao Nian sat down.
Ye Wangchuan took her hand and handed her the tableware, poured her a cup of morning tea, and put the crystal shrimp dumplings that Qiao Nian liked in a place where she could easily pick them up.
During the period, no words were said, and it seemed that everything was implied.
There was a faint tacit understanding between the two, and it was difficult for a third party to insert it.
Ye Maoshan watched them sitting together, and after worrying for a whole morning, he finally saw some pleasant scenes, and his mood was much better.
"Why did Nian Nian come here? Is there something to do with him?" Ye Maoshan's tone was much gentler, and it was different from talking to Liang Conglin and Ye Wangchuan, and it was as warm as the breeze blowing in spring.
"I heard from the news that one of our top scientists was detained by the FBI?" Qiao Nian asked directly.
Ye Maoshan looked into her eyes and couldn't tell a lie, so he could only be truthful and say: "...That's right. What happened this morning spread so quickly?"
Qiao Nian didn't answer directly, her eyes were burning with fire: "In addition to this, we also lost a national defense science and technology talent this morning?"
Ye Maoshan looked unnatural: "Ahem, because of a car accident..."
The girl interrupted him: "Old man, do you believe it?"
Ye Maoshan looked at her.
Qiao Nian took a sip of the teacup and met his eyes again; "Car accident. Do you believe it?"
Ye Maoshan didn't know how to answer for a moment. If he said he believed it... he was lying. If he said he didn't believe it... he didn't want to involve Qiao Nian.
The girl saw the embarrassment on his face and said it more clearly: "I plan to take a team of lawyers to Country M."
"Nian Nian..." Ye Maoshan hesitated: "You just helped solve the problem in your province, and now you have to do it for..."
Qiao Nian looked at him directly: "I am a Z countryman, and the blood of this country flows in my body. I grew up here, learned the history and culture of this place, drank the mountains and rivers here, and ate the rice raised here. I stand on this 9.6 million square kilometers of land, and have seen the vast mountains and rivers of this land. Protecting this land is the most basic belief of every Z countryman. I am not that special. If I have the ability, I will do more, and if I don’t have the ability, I will do less. I only do what I should do, and I don’t think I am helping."
Ye Maoshan’s heart was reverberating, and he couldn’t squeeze out a sentence for a long time: "...What a belief."
What a person who doesn’t think he is helping.
What a person who steps on 9.6 million square kilometers of land should stand up for this land. (End of this chapter)
