"Alright." Qiao Nian agreed quickly.
Seeing that she was no longer treating him as an outsider, Nie Mi smiled, in a much better mood. He looked at Principal Liang, who was still settling the bill, and said to her, "If you've got something on, you can go first. I'll help you let Principal Liang know. Anyway, he's already achieved his goal. Even if you leave a bit earlier, he'll be fine."
It was rather rude to leave first when dining with someone else. But Qiao Nian was really in a rush, so she decided to go ahead with it. "I'll leave first, then."
Nie Mi waved her away. "Hurry up and go. Do what you need to do."
"Mm."
Qiao Nian left with her cell phone in hand.
When she left, she happened to bump into the huge group of Qiao Family members who had also just finished dining. Cheng Wu wasn't with them. He probably left for the hotel first to catch some rest.
