Seeing Lu Qi's smile, Qiao Nian couldn't help but smile as well. Her mood was now much better than usual. "You don't have to treat me like an outsider. Just call me by my given name."
Lu Qi's eyes lit up. "You're older than me. I'll call you Sister Nian Nian, okay?"
Suddenly, an aged voice came from the side.
"Qi Qi, you only have one elder sister!"
Qiao Nian looked over and saw an old lady with white hair. She appeared to be reserved and taciturn, unlike Matriarch Gu's natural amiability.
Lu Qi's expression turned awkward. She quickly said, "Nian Nian, this is my grandmother."
Lu Qi had changed the way she addressed Qiao Nian.
Qiao Nian smiled at Matriarch Lu and greeted politely, "Madam Lu, how do you do?"
When Matriarch Lu heard Qiao Nian's voice, she shifted her gaze to Qiao Nian, sizing her up. Then, she nodded indifferently. "So you're Professor Qiao Nian. I heard from Qi Qi that you're a knowledgeable young lady."
