Mihir blinked her beautiful blue eyes and made an exaggerated shrug: "I really don't understand you people."
Liang Conglin and Liang Feng looked at each other and smiled.
The three of them just chatted for a few words, and it didn't take much time. There was only one person involved in the conversation, and that was Qiao Nian.
Those compliments for Qiao Nian were like steel needles piercing the heart of Dai Jiaqi, who overheard their chat. She couldn't help but think...
If Qiao Nian was ruined.
If she is no longer the all-powerful person in everyone's eyes.
Will these people, including those in China, still regard Qiao Nian as a 'god-like' existence?
If she loses her external halo, will everyone discover her strong and withdrawn side, and find that she is not so worthy of being liked.
That person...will also realize that Qiao Nian is nothing special?
Once these thoughts emerge, they grow wildly like weeds that have taken root, growing into thorns that pierce the human heart and speed up the blood flow throughout the body.
Dai Jiaqi's heart beat like a drum.
She heard her own breath in a trance, and said calmly to Zhou's mother who was about to leave: "Aunt, you go over first. I want to get breakfast before going over."
"Hey, you won't come with me?" Zhou's mother turned around and looked at her niece who was stuck in place strangely, and saw Dai Jiaqi shaking her head.
"I took the same one I used to have."
Mother Zhou didn't see anything unusual and nodded quickly: "Okay, I'll go find your uncle first. You can just come over and sit at the same table with us later."
"good."
Dai Jiaqi was very calm. The hands hidden behind her back were clenched into fists. The blood vessels on the back of her hands were bulging, which showed that beneath the calm surface, her heart was boiling like boiling water.
Mother Zhou walked away.
Dai Jiaqi took a dinner plate from underneath, turned around and picked up a piece of black forest mousse, and began to silently observe the three people standing not far away. I don't know if she is lucky.
Liang Feng picked up the baked bacon and walked away to talk to Liang Conglin. In a blink of an eye, only the blond and blue-eyed foreign man was left.
Dai Jiaqi tightened her fingers holding the plate and walked steadily towards Mihir...

The court session started at ten o'clock today. Qiao Nian didn't get up until nine o'clock. After washing up in the bathroom, she rinsed her face with cold water to wake up from her drowsiness.
When she casually picked up the cap button on the table and went out, she found that the door to the concierge was closed. He didn't know whether he was still in the room or not.
Qiao Nian rested her elbows on the entrance to change her shoes. Her long and thick eyelashes drooped to cover the emotions in her eyes. She mentally planned to find an opportunity to find out what he was hiding after Zhou Xuxing's lawsuit was resolved.
At this moment, Liang Conglin's phone call urging her to come over lit up.
Qiao Nian didn't have time to think too much, so she closed the door and went to find someone.

She was the last one to arrive at the restaurant.
Everyone else had basically finished breakfast.
She became the center of attention as soon as she appeared, and others quickly gathered around her without her having to do anything.
Dai Jiaqi watched everyone from Liang Feng to Liang Conglin, then the members of the legal team who came this time, and even the old lady pass by.
She was about to be overwhelmed by the tide of jealousy, and then she remembered what she had done, and gently moved her eyes away, shrinking back with a guilty conscience, afraid that Qiao Nian would notice her.
She had been like this these past few days, and no one cared about her abnormal behavior at this time. Mother Zhou even patted the back of her hand and whispered.
"I know she said something to you last time, and you feel bad about it. But after all, she is here to help your cousin, so just be patient and give her some mercy. When your cousin is safe and sound, we won't follow her. She's dating again." (End of chapter)
