Chapter 2928 You Brought The Painting, Right?
Feng Yu was sitting upright. He touched the bridge of his nose uncomfortably and said, "I was worried, so I contacted Xiao Ye. We will accompany you."
Qiao Nian looked at the additional person and felt a splitting headache.
Ye Wangchuan turned around in the front seat and looked at her innocently. "The dean insisted on coming along. I had no choice. We'll wait for you in the car later. It shouldn't affect anything."
Qiao Nian looked at Feng Yu, but he refused to meet her eyes, so she pretended not to see anything.
Qiao Nian's head hurt again. She pressed her forehead, knowing that Feng Yu was going with her today no matter what.
Without another word, she bent down and got into the car.

Feng Yu finally relaxed as he looked at the scenery outside the window. He secretly exhaled and turned to the girl. "I wonder if Leonard's already there? I'm afraid that besides the painting, he also wants to settle scores with you because of the East Pole Organization."
The Ji family had brought the head of the East Pole organization, Ronko, back for a few days, but they still could not get anything out of him.
Ronko's mouth was sealed tight.
He refused to say anything even under threat.
However, everyone knew Ronko's backer was Leonard.
They just wanted to know if Ji Ziyin was involved.
Qiao Nian's eyes narrowed as if she was still half-asleep. Hearing this, she only drooped her eyelids and casually said, "He's not that senseless."
Feng Yu looked at her.
Qiao Nian sat up slightly. "If he wanted to settle scores, he would have done so long ago. He wouldn't have waited until now. Leonard probably just wants the painting."
"It's just a painting…" Feng Yu didn't understand.
Qiao Nian raised her eyebrows slightly and casually said, "That just goes to show this painting is very important to him."

Five o'clock.
The car steadily entered the underground garage of the Intercontinental Hotel.
Leonard was already there. Beside him stood an ordinary-looking man—Leonard's trusted aide.
Seeing the headlights, the man's eyes narrowed, and he reported to the old man, "She's here."
"Yes." Leonard naturally saw a car driving in. He said to his confidant, "Stay here. I'll talk to her alone."
His confidant immediately tried to dissuade him. "Elder Leo, isn't this too risky? That Qiao Nian…"
Leonard was confident. "She probably wants to ask about the reclusive families' secret. I'll talk to her."
Seeing that Leonard's expression was serious, the man did not insist and solemnly said, "Then call me if you need anything." Coincidentally, the car stopped 20 meters away from them.
Ye Wangchuan kept his car at a distance.
"We're here," he said to the girl.
Qiao Nian had already unbuckled her seatbelt and was about to open the door.
Feng Yu could not help but say, "Be careful."
Qiao Nian gave him an "OK" sign before getting out and walking towards Leonard.
Leonard said something to his confidant before walking towards Qiao Nian alone.
The moment they met, Leonard sharply asked, "You brought the painting, right?"
