Gu Zhou’s gaze fell on the last line of words on the document.
“Qiao Nian and Su Yan used to date.
Because Qiao Xin stepped in, Qiao Xin got together with Su Yan instead.”
Gu Zhou closed the file and stuffed it into Lin Nan’s hands.
Calmly, he said, “Go and investigate the reasons behind Qiao Nian and Su Yan’s breakup.
Investigate Su Yan as well, and find Mr.
W.”
“Yes.” Lin Nan committed everything Gu Zhou said to memory.
When Qiao Nian went downstairs, she saw Gu Zhou and Lin Nan following her downstairs as well.
She was surprised but did not show it on her face.
Gu Zhou caught up with Qiao Nian in two or three steps.
He walked closer to her and said into her ear, “Mr.
W has left again.
Something cropped up.”
Qiao Nian froze for a moment and looked at Gu Zhou in confusion.
She didn’t know any Mr.
W.
“The owner of the jade pendant.” Gu Zhou said, standing on the stairs.
He looked down and saw Qiao Xin standing in the living room.
He frowned unhappily.
A little girl who had stolen her sister’s boyfriend must have some ulterior motive.
“Ask your sister to return home first!”
Qiao Nian agreed and followed Gu Zhou down the stairs.
She was curious why Gu Zhou had even brought Qiao Xin here in the first place.
Was it really because of the owner of the jade pendant?
Gu Zhou went downstairs and politely exchanged a few words with Matriarch Gu before leaving.
“Sister!” Qiao Xin quickly went up to Qiao Nian and looked at her ingratiatingly.
In a stark contrast to the disdain that Qiao Nian was used to, Qiao Xin stepped forward and grasped Qiao Nian’s arm affectionately.
Who didn’t know how to act?
Sisterly love?
Qiao Nian looked at Qiao Xin with a smile and slipped her arm out of Qiao Xin’s grasp in a smooth motion.
She said languidly, “Xin Xin, your brother-in-law told me that the owner of the jade pendant, Mr.
W, is busy and will only come over after some time.
Why don’t you go back home for a while?”
Qiao Xin naturally understood that Qiao Nian wouldn’t dare to give her the wrong information under Gu Zhou’s name.
She lowered her gaze slightly, the corners of her lips still raised, hiding the disdain in her eyes.
Sweetly, she replied.
“Alright, I will.”
Qiao Nian glanced toward the door.
Seeing that Qiao Xin was still standing there, unmoving, Qiao Nian raised her eyebrows and said, “I have other things to do, so I won’t accompany you!”
Qiao Nian then walked towards Matriarch Gu.
Qiao Xin stood there coldly, her hands clenched into fists.
She turned back and saw Matriarch Gu gazing at Qiao Nian dotingly.
