The brim of the girl's hat was pushed down so low that she couldn't see her face clearly, but she still felt the disgusting aura from the straight figure in front of the camera.
Qiao Nian!
"Mom, I won't be back this month. I'm going to attend an awards event with my teacher in a few days. I'm one of the invited guests. Let me tell you in advance. Please help me tell Dad too."
Shen Qiongzhi came back to his senses, stopped watching TV, and returned his attention to the phone call: "Ai Ai, you won't come back?"
Ever since the joint entrance examination, Qiao Ai followed Wei Ling back to the capital city, and has not been back even once since then.
After all, she is his biological daughter, and Shen Qiongzhi only takes her with him. It would be a lie to say that he does not miss her.
"You can't spare a day...it's not far from the city and the capital, and the flight only takes three hours."
Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted impatiently by Qiao Ai: "The flight only takes three hours, but the round trip also takes six hours. In half a day, I still have to go to the airport to board the plane and go through security check. After all, it will take a whole day." I've been on the plane all day just to come back for a meal, and then I'm busy leaving after dinner. Mom, I've been busy arranging music recently, as you know."
When Shen Qiongzhi heard what she said, what else could she say, and her tone weakened: "...I know."
She was quite unwilling to do so. She held the phone with her knuckles turning white and said softly: "But your dad and I miss you very much..."
On the other end of the phone, Qiao Ai seemed to be very busy. He could hear the sound of turning pages in a book. He paused and then spoke to her: "I understand. I'll find a time to come back after I finish participating in that activity."
Shen Qiongzhi immediately grinned, showing a smile that could not be concealed, and was extremely happy: "Okay. When you will come back, tell your mother in advance, and I will clean the room again and put on new sheets and quilts for you."
"...Hmm." Qiao Ai was very busy. She was busy writing arrangements. Steven had been urging her harder and harder these days, but her new arrangement had not made any progress at all, even though she had just started working with Shen Qiongzhi. After less than five minutes on the phone, she already frowned, with an impatient expression on her lips: "Mom, I won't tell you anymore, I'm going to hang up."
"Ah, so fast?"
Shen Qiongzhi didn't want to hang up the phone yet, but the camera on the TV happened to be still focused on the girl who was being blocked by reporters for an interview. The girl seemed to be extremely impatient when she was asked. For a moment, she raised her head, revealing her cold and delicate face under the brim of her hat. She was stunning. The reporter didn’t come back to his senses for quite a while.
Then came that extremely arrogant answer.
Don’t ask, just ask and you’ll get full marks!
Shen Qiongzhi looked at the carefree girl in front of the camera, pursed her lips, with disgust and hatred in her eyes, and whispered to Qiao Ai: "Qiao Nian is on TV."
Qiao Ai was about to hang up the phone, but when he heard this sentence, he paused: "What?"
"Didn't she go to take the college entrance examination? In the last exam today, she was the first to hand in her paper and was interviewed by reporters standing outside."
Shen Qiongzhi held the mobile phone in one hand and clenched it into a fist with the other hand hanging by his side, saying disdainfully.
"She was asked how difficult she thought the exam was and how many points she could get. How do you think she answered?"
"How did she answer?" When Qiao Ai heard the name he hadn't heard for a long time, his tone was very cold, similar to Shen Qiongzhi's, with the same tone that he didn't even want to mention it.
Shen Qiongzhi sneered, picked up the remote control and turned off the TV. She rolled her eyes in disbelief: "She? She said she wanted perfect scores."
