The other party rejected him twice in a row, so Cao Yanhua was too embarrassed to continue inviting her for dinner. He could only nod. “Alright, next time.”
The girl responded, Then, she noticed Ji Ziyin was still standing there. Without much of a change in expression, she pulled the strap on her shoulder and said to the two of them, “Senior Brother Cao, go ahead. I won’t disturb you anymore.
I’ll leave first.”
‘Why don’t I send you out?” Cao Yanhua was still feeling guilty about what had happened and took the initiative to suggest it.
However, Qiao Nian declined. “There’s really no need. You guys chat. ‘ Then, she left.
Xue Zhu, Xu Yi, and Shen Qingfeng also said goodbye to Cao Yanhua and quickly followed her.
Moreover, like Qiao Nian, the three of them pretended not to see Ji Ziyin and left without even greeting her politely.
Ji Ziyin endured it again and again, and her expression finally changed a little.
However, she was extremely good at enduring and would not show her emotions on her face. After they left, she pretended to ask casually, “Senior Brother Cao, do you have an appointment tonight?”
Cao Yanhua did not expect this batch of newcomers to have such strong personalities. After watching them leave, he retracted his gaze and scratched his head. He answered her awkwardly, “No. I wanted to invite Qiao Nian and the others for a meal to welcome them. It’s considered their first day in the Level 8 laboratory, but she’s meeting someone else today. I can only postpone
‘
He spoke simply and did not mention what had happened. He also did not say that he had neglected them in the lounge for the entire day.
Ji Ziyin could not maintain her smile upon hearing this.
She lowered her eyes slightly, her thick eyelashes trembling. Then, she chuckled and whispered, “That’s a pity.”
She did not know who Qiao Nian was going to meet with tonight. She only felt that the other party was a little too stupid!
The people from the Level 8 laboratory were not easy to interact with. So far, she only knew Cao Yanhua and Xie Xinyao. It was difficult for her to enter their small circle.
Cao Yanhua had specially given Qiao Nian this opportunity, but she did not even cherish it and still wanted to eat with an outsider.
What a joke!
Ji Ziyin felt a little better.
However, Cao Yanhua did not see through her thoughts. He looked regretfully in Qiao Nian and the others’ direction and sighed. ‘Yes. Although they’re not members of the Level 8 laboratory, I think highly of these newcomers, especially Qiao Nian. I think she’s quite talented. If there’s a chance, I still want to help her.”
Ji Ziyin’s smile instantly froze. Forcing it, she said stiffly, “Yes, she does have some talent.”
On the other side.
After Qiao Nian and the others left the Level 8 laboratory, they returned to their small laboratory and put down their things.
Shen Qingfeng put his things away and turned around. He smiled and took the initiative to invite her. “Since we’re not eating with Senior Brother Cao and the others, why don’t the few of us go for a meal alone? My treat.”
Xue Zhu also placed her things on the table and responded positively, “Okay, I have no objections.”
She turned to ask Xu Yi, “Xu Yi, what about you? ‘
Xu Yi did not seem to be in high spirits. He declined. “I won’t go.”
“Oh.” Xue Zhu was used to him being unsociable, so she did not force him. She nodded and looked in Qiao Man’s direction expectantly. “Qiao Nian, do you have time? Let’s go eat together.”
Qiao Nian had just picked up her phone when it vibrated.. It was an unread message from an app with a red symbol..
