Madam’s Identities Shocks the Entire City Again

Chapter 1400: Aren’t You Coming Down For Lunch With Us?

Qiao Nian lowered her eyes and said politely, “There’s really no need. A friend is coming later. I’ll wait for them to come and eat together.”

A friend…

For some reason, Liang Conglin recalled that Qiao Nian had said something similar when they were in the illegal district. She said that a friend was coming.

It wasn’t long before one of the main members of the Red Alliance arrived.

!!
“Alright, then. Send a message to me or Teacher Du if you need us to bring some food back.”

Liang Conglin didn’t ask who her friend was. Instead, he seemed to have thought of something. He looked at Qiao Nian for some time and found it difficult to speak. “Um… Qiao Nian, do you know that the contestant from Country D, Aiden, has withdrawn from the competition?”

Qiao Nian sat there cross-legged, with one hand supporting her face. She turned her head, and a hint of surprise flashed across her dark eyes. Her voice was slightly hoarse, and she sounded surprised. “He withdrew from the competition?”

Seeing that she didn’t seem to know about this, Liang Conglin breathed a sigh of relief and said, “Yes. I just heard the news half an hour ago.”

Liang Conglin glanced at her again. “… Qiao Nian, I heard from Teacher Du that you met him before you came up. Aiden even greeted you.”

Qiao Nian frowned, her eyes filled with frustration.

Slim Waist Control…

He could probably go to the red-light district of the independent continent to develop himself.

If his brain wasn’t working well, he could raise money to take a look at his brain so that he wouldn’t be like a lame youth every day. He could even cause trouble for himself in the illegal district…

Seeing that she was silent, Liang Conglin’s heart was in his throat again. He looked at Qiao Nian with a complicated expression. “You…”

He couldn’t help but think of Qiao Nian’s… friend in the illegal district!

Aiden was in the top 20 of the Heaven Leaderboard, and he was also a member of the Red Alliance. Although he wasn’t a main member, Qiao Nian knew the Red Alliance’s main member, Slim Waist Control.

He couldn’t help but wonder if Qiao Nian had privately asked Slim Waist Control to make Aiden withdraw from the competition.

He didn’t think too much about this.

He just didn’t expect Qiao Nian to have such a good relationship with the Red Alliance!

“Don’t feel pressured. I’m just asking casually. If you don’t want to tell me, then forget it.” Liang Conglin was very considerate. Seeing that Qiao Nian was silent, he was worried that she would feel awkward because of his words. He quickly waved his hand and raised his eyebrows. With a smile on his lips, he gently changed the topic. “Are you really not going out to eat with us?”

This time, Qiao Nian moved. She changed her posture and sat down. Her fair face was very eye-catching. “I’m really not going. My friend will be here soon.”

“Okay.” Seeing that she really wasn’t going, Liang Conglin nodded and didn’t insist on it. He walked over and silently patted the girl’s shoulder. “Don’t feel too pressured about tomorrow’s competition,” he said softly. “Since Aiden withdrew, the only you have to look out for is Mas. He’s definitely going to win this competition. Teacher Du and I only expect you to be happy.”

Other than asking Qiao Nian if she wanted to eat, Liang Conglin had come to make her relax and comfort her.

“We’ll be satisfied as long as you have fun and grow from this competition.” He patted the girl’s shoulder. “So, don’t stress yourself too much,” he said firmly.

“Yes. Thank you, Principal Liang. I’m not stressed.” Qiao Nian was wearing a baseball cap. Thus, her eyes were covered by the brim when she lowered her head.

Liang Conglin was relieved upon seeing that she was indeed not under any pressure.

“As long as you’re not stressed.”
