Qiao Nian arrived at the sanatorium half an hour later.

Jian Jin walked her to the outside of the sanatorium and stopped the car. She watched as the girl unbuckled her seatbelt and whispered, “Qiao, do you want me to accompany you in?”

She felt that there were many troublesome things in Qiao’s biological parents’ house!

Uneasy, Jian Jin added, “Anyway, I’m free tonight. Should I accompany you?”

At this moment, Qiao Nian had already unbuckled her seatbelt. She opened the door and picked up her shoulder bag. She got out of the car first and placed a hand on the door. Standing outside, she said, “No need. Go back first. I’ll just take a look.”

“You really don’t want me to go in with you?” Jian Jin was still worried.

Qiao Nian had already closed the door. Slinging the bag over her shoulder bag, she raised her hand and casually pulled down the brim of her cap. Her eyes were dark and deep like a cold lake. It was impossible to tell her emotions. They were quite cold. She faced the rolled-down car window and restrained her bandit aura. “Go back first. I’ll call you if anything happens!”

Jian Jin could tell that Qiao Nian didn’t want her to get involved in the Jiang family’s matters. She didn’t insist and nodded. Her fair oval face looked ordinary, but her eyes were sharp and cold. “Okay, I’ll go back first. Remember to call me if there’s anything. I live not far from here. I’ll be there in ten minutes.”

The sanatorium chosen by Old Master Jiang had a good environment. This area belonged to the wealthy area of Beijing, and there were many villas scattered around the sanatorium.

Qiao Nian thought that she was staying in a hotel. Suddenly, she realized that she was staying in a nearby villa. There was a hint of surprise in her black eyes.

But she understood in the blink of an eye.

With Jian Jin’s personality, she would definitely choose to stay in a hotel. It was convenient and fast. It was less troublesome.

However, Jian Jin did not come to Beijing alone this time. Lu Zhi was among her companions. He was not someone who could stay in a hotel casually.

Qiao Nian also knew that Lu Zhi was obsessed with cleanliness, and it was quite serious. His residence in the illegal district was always meticulously cleaned. There was no trash on the floor or the sofa. Even the cover of a book was wiped clean by him. He would even put a disposable cushion on the chair in the study.

Qiao Nian understood who lived in the villa nearby. The surprise in her eyes gradually dissipated. She stuffed a hand into her pocket and said arrogantly, “I understand. You can leave first. I’ll go in after you leave.”

As she spoke, she took a step away from the car. Unable to dissuade her, Jian Jin rolled up the window and the red sports car disappeared in the blink of an eye…

Qiao Nian watched as the car was driven away. Only then did she raise her hand and lower her cap again to hide the coldness in her eyes. She then turned around and walked into the sanatorium.

The sanatorium where Old Master Jiang lived was a garden-like scene. There was a neatly trimmed lawn, and a big ginkgo tree was planted on the lawn.

A breeze blew through the treetops, and the leaves swayed with it.

A ripple also appeared on the lake not far away.

The overall environment was quiet. It was very suitable for old people to live here and recuperate.

This was not the first time Qiao Nian had come to the sanatorium. Ever since she had been admitted to Qing University, she would come to the sanatorium from time to time to accompany Old Master Jiang.

She was very familiar with the environment as she crossed the stone path on the lawn with ease and walked all the way to the ward where Old Master Jiang was staying.
