She looked at the rebellious girl opposite her and felt a surge of anger between her eyebrows.
Nie Qingru suppressed her temper and sat back down with a cold expression. Her gaze never left Qiao Nian as she asked oppressively, "Where's Xicheng? What did you do to him?"
Jian Jin entered at this moment.
She walked up to Qiao Nian and handed her the glass of water. "It's warm."
Qiao Nian acted as if she did not hear Nie Qingru's aggressive question and gently took the water from Jian Jin. "Thank you."
Jian Jin smiled intimately. "I'll be outside. Call me if there's anything."
"Alright."
Qiao Nian placed the glass on the table.
Before leaving, Jian Jin glanced in Nie Qingru's direction. Without saying anything, she silently retreated and closed the door.
Only the three of them were left in the office.
Nie Qingru's face darkened even more upon being completely ignored. The veins on her neck bulged. It was obvious that she was trying her best to suppress her emotions.
