Chapter 1339 - 880: Low Pressure
"The number you dialed is powered off, please call again later.....sorry....." Jiang Nian made five calls in a row.Xu Qianqian went from hanging up to not answering, and finally just turned off her phone.
"Boss." Zhang Wei noticed the situation was getting awkward and wanted to sneak away, "Should I step out for a bit?"
"Wait."
Jiang Nian rubbed his temples and put the phone aside, "No need. What were you saying about the sample clothes?"
The situation was already beyond his control.
Even if he bought a plane ticket to fly back, he would still have to wait for the flight. Being anxious wasn’t going to help, better to finish work first.
"Oh, oh, the feedback from over there....."
After Zhang Wei left, Jiang Nian sat in his chair. After some thought, he called over Fan Yixuan to ask about the choices for the live broadcast.
"Have you found new people?"
"Scheduled a few for interviews today, they will be here soon. New ones are easy to find, what about the old ones?"
"Keep them on for now."
"Alright."
After handling the miscellaneous tasks, Jiang Nian was left alone in the office. His chest felt sore and hot, even breathing was painful.
"Don’t panic, the more you panic the worse it gets." He mumbled to himself, gently rubbing his fingers, "Ask Xiao Song for help."
"No, she probably is already packing up."
The two women have a good relationship, it was simulated by the system. Even after twenty years, it’s still a knot in their hearts.
So, they are sure to stick together.
Find someone else...
Jiang Nian thought for a long time, yet in the vast Beijing City. He couldn’t find anyone who could help him.
This was the price of double-edged sword.
On the contrary, on Zhang Ningzhi’s side, he could ask Yao Beibei for help to calm down the same table’s mood.
After all, he’s been good to Yao Beibei.
Helping out a bit is still possible.
Xu Qianqian....
"I should have known more people from my hometown, in a place so unfamiliar...who can I find."
Afternoon.
After completing interviews with new employees and taking care of miscellaneous tasks, Jiang Nian quickly left the company and flew back to Beijing City.
Upon landing, night had already fallen.
"Over here."
Zhao Yiqiu waved and sent a message to the boss, indicating that he had picked up Jiang Nian.
"Why are you here?" Jiang Nian was surprised.
"The boss told me to come and get you." Zhao Yiqiu took out the keys, smiling brightly.
"I’ve been too idle lately, finally something to do."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Nian was intrigued.
"Doesn’t Xu Shuang need the car?"
"The boss is staying in the dormitory lately." Zhao Yiqiu said, glancing at the recently busy Jiang Nian.
"Alright, thank you." Jiang Nian glanced at her, having roughly figured out the situation.
He’s indeed been busy lately, with no time to find Xu Shuang.
The car slowly left the airport parking lot, with Zhao Yiqiu in the driver’s seat, cheerfully talking about recent amusing events.
Most of them revolved around food or places with discounts.
Having no worries is truly great.
After returning to school, he went to the apartment first. Late at night, there was silence inside after unlocking the door.
Squeak.
The lights were off in the living room, with no sound at all.
Jiang Nian took a deep breath and clicked the switch. The living room was empty, all the room doors were open.
"Hoo~~"
Upon walking in, he saw that Xu Qianqian and Song Xiyun had already moved out, leaving only empty rooms.
The once warm little home turned into ruins overnight.
Jiang Nian bent down to pick up scattered pieces of paper on the ground, realizing they were sticky notes he had written before.
There was even a footprint on it, probably made by Xu Qianqian.
"She got angry, it’s good she’s able to be angry." He murmured, "Going silent and disappearing is the scariest thing."
Jiang Nian entered the room and found a small box on the table. After opening it, there was a thick stack of cash inside.
"Damn!!"
...
On the other side.
Xu Qianqian was resting in the dormitory, having removed her SIM card and was connected to the dorm’s WiFi, scrolling through short videos.
After crying it out, her emotions gradually calmed.
The thick curtains blocked all light. Xiyun’s messages halted two hours ago.
"Did you leave the money on the table?"
"I did."
"Okay."
Xu Qianqian swiped away the screen, turning off her phone. Staring at the dark curtains, her mind was in a chaos.
Bits and pieces of the past arose in her heart involuntarily.
Why did he treat me like this.....
On the other side.
Zhang Ningzhi cried until her eyes were swollen, lying on the bed without even the strength to move.
Feeling both aggrieved and sad.
Originally thinking that Jiang Nian at Beijing University was merely unclear with the class monitor, but who knew he actually had a hidden lover.
Instantly, her heart collapsed into ruins.
Knock knock knock.
Yao Beibei came in with some food, "Zhizhi, get up and eat something."
"I’m not hungry." Zhang Ningzhi said, about to cry again, "He doesn’t really care about me."
"It’s been so long, and he hasn’t even called."
Yao Beibei paused, reminding her.
"Honey, your phone is turned off."
"Really?" Zhang Ningzhi stopped crying, "But he didn’t contact you either, he still doesn’t care about me."
"My phone is off too." Yao Beibei waved her hand, "Jiang Nian keeps calling every now and then, it’s annoying."
"Really?" Zhang Ningzhi asked.
Yao Beibei nodded, Jiang Nian indeed called several times, and she did find him annoying and hung up.
It’s just that the way it’s said makes the result different too.
However, from this moment on. The truth didn’t matter much anymore, Zhizhi clearly couldn’t let him go.
Yao Beibei thought it over, letting nature take its course might be better.
"Alright, just eat something first."
"Okay." Zhang Ningzhi said, took her phone and turned it on, the moment she did a call came through.
It was Jiang Nian calling.
The young girl pursed her lips, hesitated for a few seconds. After refusing him for a day, she finally answered.
"Hello~"
Her voice was a bit hoarse, she herself was startled, "What do you want?"
"I reached the villa area."
"What...what are you doing here?" Zhang Ningzhi stammered, "I was already.....getting ready to sleep."
