Chapter 1072: A Gift

Qiao Nian restrained her aura and stood up lazily from the bar. She walked to the table and picked up her backpack from the coffee table. Then, she walked to the door with her straight and long legs.

She pulled open the door.

She thought that it was Liang Conglin who was knocking on the door, asking her to prepare to leave.

Unexpectedly, it was a young man. The man looked ordinary. He was 175 centimeters tall, the kind that could not be seen in a crowd. He was dressed very formally in a black shirt and a sharp suit. He seemed to have a Bluetooth earpiece in his ear.

Qiao Nian looked up and saw that the Bluetooth earpiece he had stuffed in his ear was shining. Someone should be instructing him remotely.

The young man saw the door open.

A girl who looked very young came out. She had a cap on her head, and the brim of her black hat was down, making her look quite casual.

He was stunned for a moment before he immediately composed himself. He lowered his head respectfully and did not dare to look at her again. He handed Qiao Nian an envelope with both hands. “Hello, Miss Qiao.”

“This is a gift from my master.”

Liang Conglin, Tian Jing, and the others had just returned and were walking to the room when they saw Qiao Nian open the door. There was an unfamiliar man standing at the door, handing her something.

“Who is this?” the physics professor asked curiously.

Liang Conglin pursed his lips and shook his head. He did not know either. “I don’t know. Maybe he’s Qiao Nian’s friend?”

When Tian Jing heard the words ‘Qiao Nian’s friend’, she looked in the direction ahead and quickly retracted her gaze. She had dark eye circles and it was obvious that she had not slept well last night like Liang Lu. She had also woken up early in the morning, making her expression look even more stiff and numb.

After Qi Rongguang’s visit yesterday, she no longer wanted to understand the background of this freshman from the Chinese Medicine Faculty.

She just wanted to return to Beijing safely.

She would never provoke this girl called Qiao Nian again and would focus on her research.

When Qiao Nian saw the envelope in front of her, she did not reach out to take it immediately. Instead, she raised her eyebrows and glanced at the symbol on the envelope.

Her tone was quite calm. “Go back and tell him that there’s no need. I’ve already bought a plane ticket.”

The young man blocking her door seemed to be in a difficult position. He looked up again and straightened his back a little.

Qiao Nian saw the light in his left ear flicker. She guessed that the person on the other end should have heard her.

Indeed, after a few seconds, the young man lowered his eyes and handed the envelope over respectfully.

“Miss Qiao, our master said that this is your and your teachers’ plane tickets. He helped you board the plane and helped you and your teachers upgrade to first class.”

Qiao Nian did not speak.

The other party looked up again and said word by word like a recorder, “He asks you to accept this gift. He said that he’s busy this time and doesn’t have time to see you personally. This is a token of his appreciation. You don’t sleep well. The flight is long, and the first-class cabin is a little more comfortable than the business class. At least you can rest more on the plane.”

Qiao Nian looked up and happened to see Liang Conglin and the others not far away. Her eyes darkened and she was quite frustrated. She took the envelope from him and did not say anything else. She said, “Help me thank him. I’ll transfer the money to him later.”
