Chapter 2922 The Person Who Talked to Qiao Nian Was Feng Yu  

Su Zhe did not expect the young girl to be his girlfriend. She was stunned and felt even more awkward.

"Hehe, is that so?"

The others quickly livened up the atmosphere and changed the topic. "Alright, alright. Speaking of which, we came to the independent continent this time to see Elder Feng…"

Seeing that someone helped by changing the topic, Su Zhe quickly returned to her seat. She did not pay much attention to the latter half of the conversation.

After sitting restlessly for more than 10 minutes, she said to the person beside her, "I'm going to the washroom."

The others naturally understood her awkwardness and cooperated very kindly, asking her to go quickly.

Qiao Nian saw that her cell phone's screen lit up.

Upon seeing the flashing caller ID, she said to Zhou Zhou, "I'm going out to take this call."

Zhou Zhou had already caught a glimpse of the caller from the corner of her eye, so she just nodded. "Alright, go ahead."

Qiao Nian left the private room.

Outside the private room.

Su Zhe had just gone to the bathroom to splash cold water on her face and touch up her makeup.

She was comforted by a friend of the WLA forum who was close to her. "She's just his girlfriend. She just has a beautiful face. Why are you competing with her?"

Su Zhe looked at the mirror in the corridor and patted her face. Then, she took a deep breath and left the washroom.

Suddenly, she saw a familiar figure leaning against the wall outside the private room talking to someone. That girl?

Su Zhe unconsciously sneaked closer.

The person handed the girl a document bag while saying a few words to her.

The corridor was dimly lit. Su Zhe looked at the person's face—Feng Yu?!

Standing in front of the girl was an old man in his sixties. The old man looked hale and hearty. His skin was dark and ordinary, and he was of medium height. His white hair was combed neatly behind his head, and he wore a green trigram shirt.

Who else could it be but Feng Yu from the First Research Institute?

Everyone who came to the independent continent this time wanted to see Feng Yu, but he had never had the time to see them. Feng Yu actually appeared here?

Su Zhe really could not believe her eyes. She rubbed them and looked again, but the scene did not change. The old man's attitude towards the girl was warm as if they knew each other.

She bit her lip and was about to get closer to hear what they were talking about when the old man's sharp gaze landed on her hiding place.

Su Zhe broke out in a cold sweat and subconsciously hid behind the wall. Afraid of being discovered, she hurriedly returned to the private room.

"Someone is eavesdropping." Feng Yu raised his chin slightly, indicating for the girl to look behind her.

Qiao Nian hummed and turned around in boredom to see a figure running away.

Initially, she did not recognize them. However, Su Zhe's outfit was too special—a pearl dress.

Qiao Nian recognized the dress, and realization flashed across her eyes. She turned her gaze back to Feng Yu. "It's fine. I know her."

Feng Yu was quite puzzled as to how she knew that person. However, he had never interfered with her matters. He retracted his gaze and looked at the leather bag in her hand. "The Empress is not to be trifled with. She'll find out sooner or later if you start looking into her private assets…"
