“Because he only invited people he knew, it’s not easy to get this invitation  ”

In other words, Qiao Nian had better give up on attending the birthday party.

Mo Xi touched his nose, looking speechless. He was completely fooled and did not know how to smooth things over.

Fortunately, the girl did not seem to care. She held the can and raised her head slightly. Her black hair slid down her brow bones and covered her beautiful eyes. “Oh, that. I’ve already gotten the invitation.”

I’ve already gotten the invitation!

Ji Lin was momentarily distracted. He stilled for a few seconds before returning to his senses. Then, he stared fixedly at Qiao Nian. “Y-You got the invitation?”

He had just declared how difficult it was to get an invitation to Nie Qixing’s birthday.

But Qiao Nian had obtained the invitation in the blink of an eye.

This

Ji Lin’s throat dried, and his body stiffened.

Although Mo Xi was a little surprised, he did not think anything was surprising about Qiao Nian getting Nie Qixing’s invitation so quickly.

He grabbed Ji Lin’s shoulder, pulled him, and said in a low voice, “I told you to stop talking, but you didn’t listen. What now  ”

Ji Lin’s face burned, and he did not know where to look. Embarrassed, he didn’t say anything and let him pull him.

Fortunately, Mo Xi only teased him a little. He then apologized to Qiao Nian on his behalf. “Miss Qiao, don’t take what he said to heart. He’s just like this—a workaholic who doesn’t know how to think.”

Ji Lin was better than Mo Dong. He was not a brainless single-celled creature.

However, Ji Lin thought too much!

He was too cautious!

Mo Xi knew he had no ill intentions towards Qiao Nian, so he spoke up for him. “I’ll apologize to you on his behalf. I’ll remind him more later. He won’t be like this next time.”

“I don’t need you to apologize for me.”

Ji Lin shook off his hand and pulled a long face. His handsome face was upright as he looked at the girl and apologized. “I’m sorry, Miss Qiao. I was   too impulsive just now. I didn’t think before I spoke. I was also anxious. That Nie Qixing isn’t worth wasting your time investigating him.”

Qiao Nian did not take his words to heart. “It’s nothing.”

On the contrary, she had a headache from their argument. However, since Ji Lin and Mo Xi had helped her a lot, Qiao Nian patiently explained to them, “He’s not as simple as he looks.”

Ji Lin looked at her with a puzzled expression, not seeming to understand what she meant.

However, he had just been slapped in the face and was too embarrassed to question Qiao Nian again. Filled with doubts, Ji Lin was pulled away by Mo Xi.

“Let’s go, let’s go. Don’t you need to see Master Wang?”

Mo Xi was afraid Ji Lin would say something else, so he dragged him out. However, he did forget not to greet Qiao Nian. “Miss Qiao, we’re going to look for Master Wang. We’ll see you later.”

Qiao Nian wasn’t lively, to begin with. She just nodded and watched them leave.

Mo Xi even considerately closed the door.

The room finally returned to silence.

Qiao Nian heaved a sigh of relief and pulled out her notebook. She found the data of the experiment she had sorted out last night and lost herself in it

She had to complete the final experiment as soon as possible. At the very least, she had to get the exact production method!
