Chapter 3683: Received The Items

In the independent continent.

Qiao Nian was in the living room getting water when she accepted the call. Hearing this, she opened the fridge door, took out a bottle of Evian, then walked to the sofa and sat down.

“So far, there’s been no movement from Continent M.”

“Oh.”

She responded, placed her phone on the coffee table, unscrewed the cap, and took a sip of water. “I understand.”

Bo Jingxing looked at the girl’s exquisite eyebrows and said in a low voice, “Qiao Nian, I apologize for what I said back then.”

The girl’s eyes were frivolous, but upon hearing the man’s apology, they moved slightly. She slowly put down the water bottle and casually said, “What did you say that night?”

“I…”

“I didn’t take it to heart. You don’t have to take it to heart either.”

Bo Jingxing instantly understood what she meant. A bitter smile flashed across his lips, and he could not help but shake his head with a smile. “I feel even more sorry if you say that.”

If Qiao Nian scolded him or gave him a hard time…

He would feel better.

However, Qiao Nian was magnanimous and tolerated his overboard words that night. It made him unable to let go.

Qiao Nian was direct. “You don’t have to overthink. We’re just ordinary friends. It’s normal for you to have your own concerns.”

Bo Jingxing looked at her deeply and apologized gentlemanly. “I’m sorry.”

Qiao Nian did not respond this time.

She didn’t like accepting apologies, especially from Bo Jingxing, who insisted on apologizing to her. It was quite meaningless.

She knew very well that she and Bo Jingxing were only acquaintances who had met a few times. In fact, they might not even be ordinary friends.

This time, upon their cooperation being interrupted in Continent M, Bo Jingxing, as the person in charge of the Ninth Branch, asked her for a countermeasure. Actually, there was nothing to apologize for.

If the person who had asked her that night had been Ye Wangchuan, she might have felt a little uncomfortable.

But she did not feel offended since it was Bo Jingxing.

Some people were closer, and others were more distant.

She had never felt that this was wrong.

Bo Jingxing could also tell the girl was suppressing her impatience and indifference and did not continue this topic. “These two from Continent F…”

Qiao Nian relaxed her brows. “There’s no need to keep them. I told David to leave after delivering the things.”

Bo Jingxing heaved a sigh of relief. “Thank you.”

“Mm,” Qiao Nian replied. “You don’t have to thank me. I was the one who caused this conflict. I should be responsible for it.”

“Elder Ye talked to me about this. He said that this day would come sooner or later. I also think it makes sense.” Bo Jingxing’s eyes were filled with a smile. “So, Miss Qiao, you don’t have to take responsibility for yourself. You’re the youngest among us. I didn’t face as much pressure when I was your age. You don’t have to shoulder so many things either.”

“Alright.”

Qiao Nian did not explain her thoughts to him. She only nodded and looked quite easy to talk to.

Bo Jingxing knew that she had agreed so quickly because she did not take his words to heart. He was not sad. He smiled and chit-chatted before hanging up.

Qiao Nian hung up and received a call from Jian Jin.

“Who were you on the phone with, talking for so long? I’ve called you several times.”

“A friend.”

Qiao Nian did not beat around the bush.

“Is there anything?”

Jian Jin turned serious. “Didn’t I say I’d help you investigate that person last time? I found something.”
