Chapter 3349: Sorry, You Found the Wrong Person

On the other side.

Qiao Nian opened the passenger door and got into the car calmly. After fastening her seatbelt, she returned the jacket to him. “The car has a heater, there’s no need for this.”

“Just leave it there.” Ye Wangchuan also got into the car from the other side and pointed at a spot.

Qiao Nian placed the jacket down where he pointed and leaned lazily against the seat with her eyes closed. There were faint bruise marks under her eyelids.

Her eyelashes were long. Usually, when she lowered her eyelashes, it was difficult for others to notice the fatigue under her eyelids. Only when she relaxed and was as unguarded as now could the faint marks be seen.

Ye Wangchuan subconsciously adjusted the heater to a comfortable temperature. Then, he closed the car window to block out the outside noise and asked her in a low voice, “You haven’t rested well these past few days?”

“Yes.” Qiao Nian’s eyes were still closed. She pursed her red lips and said hoarsely, “The Zhou Zheng’s matter hasn’t been closed yet. I can’t sleep well.”

Ye Wangchuan’s eyes were filled with heartache. Not in the mood to mention the boy who had hit on her just now, his jaw tensed as he put his jacket over her again and comforted her softly. “What are you worried about? Nothing will happen with the Old Master around.”

With Old Master Ye’s status, no one would dare to offend him even if the Zhou family spent money to pull strings.

Furthermore, this case involved Master Cheng and the Ninth Branch. Anyone who knew a little about the situation knew how deep the waters were.

Only a brainless person would get involved in this mess.

Therefore, Zhou Zheng’s verdict was unlikely to be reversed.

Qiao Nian nodded. It was unknown if she had heard him.

Ye Wangchuan noticed she looked tired and sleepy. Not wanting her to get more tired, he did not continue on the topic. Instead, he started the car and asked her, “Where are you going later? Are you going back?”

Qiao Nian opened her eyes. “Rhine.”

Then, she pressed her forehead upon remembering the promise she just made. She turned to him and said, “I still have to go back and write a song.”

It had been a long time since she touched music.

Although she had promised Nie Mi that she would help write a new song, if she really wanted to do it, she would have to find inspiration first. Otherwise, there was really no way to write it.

“Yes.” Ye Wangchuan turned the steering wheel and drove home. His thin lips curled up slightly and he said, “I’ll make you hotpot tonight.”

The corners of Qiao Nian’s eyes went up. She was finally a little interested. Then, she pressed down on her baseball cap, relaxed, and slumped in the front passenger seat.

After Zhou Zheng’s verdict, not only did the Zhou family look for Ye Wangchuan to discuss the terms of a private settlement, but they also found out an important piece of information from others.

They rushed to Rao City overnight.

Then, early the next morning, they knocked on the door of an ordinary residential building in Rao City.

“Who is it?” someone responded.

Mr. Zhou tried to look amiable and hypocritically squeezed out a smile.

The rusty iron door opened, and a middle-aged woman’s face peeked out.

The middle-aged woman looked very simple wearing a knitted sweater. Seeing so many people standing at her door, she frowned, a little surprised and vigilant. “Who are you looking for?”

“Are you Aunt Chen?” Mr. Zhou’s expression became even warmer. He did not mind the middle-aged woman’s poor appearance and reached out for a handshake.

Aunt Chen immediately shook her head and tried to close the door. “I’m sorry, you’ve found the wrong person.”
