Novel Full Chapter 1695 - 1695 Mom, We're Just Friends!
1695 Mom, We’re Just Friends!
Ji Nan picked up the jacket on the back of the chair and said gentlemanly, “I’ll send you back.”
Qiao Nian’s phone kept vibrating at a small frequency. She wanted to go back and talk about it, but she was annoyed by the vibrating phone. A thick layer of surliness appeared under her eyes. She picked up her phone with one hand and started typing again.
Ji Nan saw how quickly she wrote the text message.
Seeing that Qiao Nian was busy, he considerately didn’t rush her. With the coat draped over his arm, he stood there patiently, waiting for her to finish writing her message.
Five minutes later, the girl finally ‘replied’. She picked up her cap, pulled out the chair, and stood up. “I’ll go pay the bill.”
Seeing that she was done with her work, Ji Nan called out to her, “SN, the security in the Independent Continent is not better than in Jing City. It’s not safe for you to go back alone. Let me send you back.”
“There’s no need.” Qiao Nian put on her cap and refused.
However, Ji Nan was exceptionally persistent. He restrained his smile and said with a serious expression, “I’m telling you the truth. The Independent Continent is not safe. I’m worried about you going back alone. Let me send you back.”
Qiao Nian twirled her cap around her wrist. She hadn’t put it on yet. Hearing his words, she fell silent, raised her eyelids, and finally took a step back. “Alright.”
Ji Nan watched her as she went to pay the bill.
His phone on the table rang at this moment.
Ji Nan walked over and picked it up. He lowered his eyes to take a look and dropped his smile. He picked up the call. “Hello, Mom.”
He looked up in Qiao Nian’s direction and only saw the girl’s tall and arrogant back. Ji Nan retracted his gaze and said, “I’m eating outside with a friend.”
“A female friend?” Ji Nan rubbed his temples. “No, you don’t know her. She’s an online friend of mine. I’ve known her for a few years. I’ve never met her before, but we’re very close. She’s no different from a friend in real life.”
The other end of the phone said something, but he quickly denied it. “No, we’re not in the relationship you think we are. She went to the bar to counter the bill. Forget about the photo.”
No matter what, he had only met Qiao Nian twice in reality. Previously, they had only communicated online.
Ji Nan had an indescribable feeling and a natural liking for Qiao Nian.
However, he was very clear.
He knew very well that his love for Qiao Nian was not the kind of love a man would have for a woman. He saw her as his younger sister.
He would want to protect Qiao Nian every time he saw her.
However, from a certain perspective, Ji Nan still did not know why he felt this way.
From what he knew, SN was unfathomable.
SN herself didn’t look to have the same kind of soft and cute personality as his little sister at home gave him.
In any case, none of the little sisters from the Ji family’s side branches fought for the bill when eating with him.
“… Hmm? A banquet? I don’t know if she’s free.
“She came with her teachers. She has some private matters to attend to here. She should be leaving in a few days.”
Ji Nan saw the girl walking back. He lowered his voice and said to the person on the other end of the phone in a helpless tone, “Mom, I’m not talking to you anymore. I’m hanging up.”
Coincidentally, Qiao Nian saw him putting down his phone.
Ji Nan picked up his coat again and said to the girl gently, “Let’s go back.”
“Mm.” Qiao Nian didn’t mind and followed him.
