Chapter 13 The first vest fell off
He saw that Qiao Nian had already put away the medicine and didn't dwell on the topic. He worried and advised, "Try to take this medicine as little as possible. If you really can't sleep at night, take another one. If you have nothing else to do, try not to take it."
"Line."
This is not the first time Qiao Nian has taken this medicine. With a clear understanding, she readily agreed.
She picked up her things, picked up her shoulder bag, threw the medicine in, and was ready to leave.
When Wei Lou saw her leaving, he stopped her and asked, "Where are you going?"
"Go home," Qiao Nian said casually as she picked up her things.
Wei Lou immediately frowned and said, "Where did you come from? Didn't the Qiao family kick you out?"
He remembered the phone call he had made to Joe before and stared at her in an instant: "Are you saying you're going back to live with your biological parents?"
Qiao Nian didn't like to get too close to the opposite sex, so she couldn't help but take a step back and casually admit, "Hmm."
Wei Lou naturally saw the small gesture of taking a half step back that she was not used to. Her eyes darkened, and she felt depressed but helpless. She could only pretend that she hadn't seen it, out of sight and out of mind, and said, "You just hung up on a few of my phones and were having dinner with your biological parents' relatives? You saw them, what kind of person are you?"
Looking back, Qiao Nian slowly said, "I haven't had any contact yet. I only saw my biological father, and my biological mother seems to have passed away. The specific reason is still unclear, I will investigate. The rest... Grandpa is very kind to me."
"Grandpa..." Wei Lou knew from her address that she didn't acknowledge her biological parents, but she recognized this grandfather.
Wei Lou's heart sank for the most part and asked seriously, "Do you really want to stay and investigate your background?"
Qiao Nian didn't know why he kept asking the same question, but he was still very patient with him. He nodded and said, "Hmm. Ye Luo has roots. At least I need to know who I am and where I come from."
This reason is impeccable!
Even if Wei Lou wanted to take her away again, he swallowed his breath and frowned, saying, "So what about you next, going back to Luohe County with your biological father?"
Qiao Nian said, "They are people from the surrounding city."
Wei Lou looked puzzled and said, "Beltway people? Didn't it mean that your biological father was from Luohe County?"
Qiao Nian couldn't explain clearly, "I haven't figured it out yet. Qiao Weimin told me that they are from Luohe County, but it seems they are not."
"What is your biological father's name?"
Qiao Nian thought back for a moment, but didn't remember. She rubbed her nose and didn't like this kind of questioning like chat: "... surnamed Jiang."
"Jiang?"
There is a big surname surnamed Jiang around the city, which is deeply rooted in the surrounding trees. Their older generation even has intricate connections with the Ye family in Beijing.
Wei Lou looked deep into Qiao Nian's eyes and put away his speculation.
Qiao Xiaonian's biological father should have nothing to do with that family.
Qiao Nian has already collected his things and threw a medicine bottle out of his backpack for him.
Wei Lou suddenly caught it.
Qiao Nian slowly picked up her shoulder bag and whispered, "This month's medicine."
A pill that can recuperate the root and bone has been circulating on the black market of China since three years ago. It is said that the effect is comparable to that of Ginseng fruit in Journey to the West. Eating it can prolong life and refresh the mind.
Once this medicine appeared on the black market, major powers wanted to take it for themselves. Only three are auctioned off on the black market every month, and each auction can cause quite a stir.
"Are there three more?" Wei Lou carefully checked the pills in the bottle. The white small pills looked no different from sugar beans.
But one can sell for sky high prices on the black market!
