Ye w.a.n.gchuan was surprised that she was willing to go, but not too surprised.

After all, he knew Qiao Nian well. She had always been a stubborn but soft-hearted person, especially when it came to the people she cared about.

A fine light in his eyes crushed the warmth on the floor. Call me at noon, he said in a low, slow voice. Ill pick you up.

Qiao Nian picked up the gla.s.s of milk and slowly lowered her head. She took a sip and put the gla.s.s back. Her voice returned to its previous casual and frivolous tone. No need. Ill call a taxi.

Finished, she said, I have somewhere else to go.

It was Ye Lans birthday, so she had to give her a birthday gift. Speaking of birthday gifts, she still had to look for Jian Jin.

Jian Jin had a full set of jade jewelry in her possession. It was just right to give it to an elder.

It was already close to ten by the time Qiao Nian arrived at school.

In the princ.i.p.als office.

Du Mingwei was getting impatient. He looked around the door three times but saw no one coming.

He paced restlessly around the office.

On the third lap, he stopped and looked worriedly at Liang Conglin. Princ.i.p.al, is Qiao Nian not coming?

I dont know. Liang Conglin didnt know if Qiao Nian would come. He ma.s.saged his temples with a headache and said, I asked her yesterday. She said that she was almost done. I dont know if she finished it.

The latest deadline given by the IT a.s.sociation was noon today. Qiao Nian would be disqualified if they didnt hand in the USB flash drive before noon.

How could Liang Conglin not be anxious?

However, it was useless for him to be anxious about this matter. Qiao Nian still had to give them the USB drive before the deadline.

But that was easier said than done!

There was no point in him panicking!

Liang Conglin was even mentally prepared for them to be disqualified. Lets wait a little longer. Isnt there still two hours? Lets wait.

Du Mingwei took a deep breath and started walking uneasily again.

He also knew that he couldnt blame Qiao Nian this time.

He could only blame himself for not keeping an eye on the flash drive and allowing it to be stolen.

Qiao Nian was cleaning up his mess.

However, this was the first time the country had entered the world-cla.s.s software compet.i.tion finals. He was unwilling to miss this opportunity to prove the countrys technological level!

For the first time, Du Mingwei was annoyed that he hadnt been careful. He couldnt even guard a USB flash drive. How could a student steal it?

But it was useless no matter how upset he was. He knew that he could only wait, wait for Qiao Nian to come to school.

Among the few of them, only Nie Mi was calmly drinking tea. He saw that Liang Conglin and Du Mingwei looked nervous and tense as if the sky had collapsed. He put down his teacup and comforted them. You dont have to be so nervous. Dont worry, Qiao Nian will come.

Du Mingwei was so nervous that his heart was about to jump out of his throat. Hearing this, he couldnt help but ask, Master Nie, how do you know?

Amused, Nie Mi put his teacup on the table. Why wouldnt I know? I sent her a message and she replied.

What did she say?

Nervous, Du Mingwei immediately asked, Did she say if she finished the software?

Nie Mi glanced at him in amus.e.m.e.nt. I dont know. I didnt ask her that. I only asked if she was coming to school today. She said she would come over later.

Du Mingweis heart raced.

Nie Mi immediately comforted him. You dont have to be so nervous. She must have finished it since she said she was coming.
