Hidden identities of the AI Heiress-Chapter 1088: Separation

Li Hanzhou, feeling a pit in his heart, decided to change the topic and asked, "Did you watch the video I sent you?" 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

Qiao Yun closed her laptop and replied, "I did."

Li Hanzhou, intrigued, continued, "Are you satisfied?"

Recalling the scene where Andrew fainted from anger in the video, Qiao Yun nodded with delight, "Satisfied."

Hearing this, Li Hanzhou held Qiao Yun’s hand and said with meaningful intonation, "So, Professor Qiao who is satisfied, shouldn’t you give me a reward?"

Qiao Yun blinked, thought for three seconds, then turned her head slightly and leaned forward.

Looking at Qiao Yun, who was just inches away, Li Hanzhou’s breath paused for a moment, followed by a slight disruption...

But in the next second.

Qiao Yun raised her hand and, under Li Hanzhou’s expectant gaze, patted his head kindly, saying in a gentle tone, "You’re so good."

Li Hanzhou: "..."

"Alright, it’s time to rest."

With that, she retracted her hand, got up contently, and went upstairs, leaving Li Hanzhou with a baffled look.

Li Hanzhou’s handsome face was full of indescribable emotions.

Was he just teased by Qiao Yun?

If Qiao Yun knew what Li Hanzhou was thinking, she would definitely tell him seriously.

She was sincerely giving Li Hanzhou a reward.

The kids in her research lab loved getting head pats as a reward the most.

Of course, Li Hanzhou didn’t know this, and he couldn’t help but chuckle softly.

Professor Qiao, who can tease, is quite adorable.

...

Just as the internet users were discussing Nolan kidnapping Herbert and also dragging Shengqiao Group’s Pei Ya into it, You’en, acting very swiftly, issued a statement after completely reorganizing the Andrew Family.

He officially announced that he would take over all affairs of the Andrew Family, and stated that Nolan would henceforth have nothing to do with the Andrew Family.

When the statement was released, the netizens hadn’t reacted yet, wondering how the Andrew Family could have undergone a major change overnight?

The next moment.

They noticed that Shengqiao Group had simultaneously reposted the statement to congratulate and even expressed looking forward to cooperating with the new chairman.

Netizens: !?

Wait, weren’t you supposed to be enemies?

How did you end up cooperating?

Nevertheless, because of Shengqiao Group’s repost, the public opinion against the Andrew Family quieted down a bit.

The only one of the parties involved, Herbert, was left nearly terrified upon seeing the change in the Andrew Family.

Outsiders weren’t aware, but he knew of the enmity between You’en and Andrew, so You’en’s sudden rise to power must have deeper hidden implications.

It wasn’t until Shengqiao Group’s repost that he realized.

So it was Shengqiao Group pulling the strings behind everything.

And the person behind Shengqiao Group is Professor Qiao...

Herbert trembled all over and nearly fell off the bed, only now realizing how fortunate he was not to have used tough measures to force Han Wang to stay.

Otherwise, it would not be the Andrew Family experiencing a major change today.

Imagining relying on being pitiful to win Han Wang’s sympathy, Herbert now dared not think about it at all.

He didn’t want to provoke such a group of monsters.

Weighing the benefits and losses, he finally took out his phone and sent Han Wang the last message.

[Xiya, I agree to let you go free.]

...

When Han Wang received this message, she was only momentarily surprised, but thinking of the recent news about the Andrew Family, she understood Herbert’s motives.

It was merely an excellent choice out of fear, not a genuine wish to grant her freedom.

She did not regard this message as important.

Not needing anyone’s permission, she was naturally free.

Han Wang moved her fingers to delete the message and looked up at Qiao Yun, who was reluctant to part with Simon and Volkov.

"Q, do you really have to go? Won’t you stay a bit longer? There are still many places I haven’t taken you to."

Simon tried to persuade Qiao Yun to stay.

Before Qiao Yun could speak, Li Hanzhou very mercilessly took Qiao Yun’s arm, "It’s boarding time."

Qiao Yun nodded and waved to Simon and Volkov, "I am leaving, see you next time."

Under their reluctant gazes, the four of them set off on their way home.

...

After a long flight.

Qiao Yun finally set foot on Chinese soil again.

The Lu Family, knowing Qiao Yun was returning today, almost everyone came out.

Once out of the airport, Qiao Yun was surrounded by the Lu Family, even pushing Li Hanzhou aside.

Su Mian took Qiao Yun’s hand and asked gently, "Qiaoqiao, did you have fun?"

The Lu Family naturally knew about the recent events, but they didn’t mention any of these bothersome matters to prevent ruining the mood.

Seeing her family made Qiao Yun very happy, and her eyes curved into a smile: "Yes, very much."

Lu Zhanxing, who managed to squeeze out the time to pick up his precious sister he hadn’t seen in a while, quietly asked, "Nobody bullied you, right?"

He gave a glance at Li Hanzhou.

The implication of who the ’nobody’ was couldn’t be clearer.

Qiao Yun answered in a hushed tone, "No, I bullied him."

The voice was soft and endearing, not at all like someone who would bully others.

Li Hanzhou, who had overheard but pretended not to hear it: "..."

"Sister, let me help you with your luggage."

Lu Jingzhi, unable to cut into the conversation, could only show he missed Qiao Yun with his actions.

He took Qiao Yun’s small suitcase from Li Hanzhou’s hand without waiting for her answer.

Qiao Yun paused for a moment and slowly said, "Okay."

That simple word left Lu Jingzhi happy for a few days.

Han Wang quietly watched Qiao Yun being cared for and loved by family, and unknowingly, a small smile formed on her lips.

Pei Ya, observing Han Wang’s unintended expression of envy, paused slightly.

Noticing the time, Han Wang had to interrupt the warm moment between Qiao Yun and the Lu Family.

"Teacher, I have to go now."

Han Wang had been away from the research institute for too long, and she needed to return. Although she could fly directly back, she chose to layover in Shangjing City to spend more time with Professor Qiao.

"Contact me if you need anything."

Qiao Yun referred to anything in every sense of the word.

Han Wang smiled, "Okay."

Pei Ya earnestly offered, "I’ll take you."

Han Wang glanced at him and didn’t refuse.

Pei Ya exhaled lightly in relief, his steps lighter as he followed Han Wang.

The past few days, everything between him and Han Wang had been too normal.

So normal that he even suspected whether Han Wang was merely asking about international marriages in passing.

On the way, Han Wang didn’t say a word.

Pei Ya scratched his head, wanting to say something, but he inexplicably felt nervous.

Until the announcement started broadcasting the boarding call.

Han Wang finally spoke, "I’m going now."

"Oh."

Pei Ya didn’t react immediately and just nodded dumbly.

Seeing Pei Ya’s hesitant expression, Han Wang opened her mouth to say things like, "Wait for me to come back," but it felt too pretentious to say.

In the end, she simply raised her hand to wave at Pei Ya and then turned to leave.

Pei Ya watched Han Wang’s departing figure, his fingers clenched then released.

The next moment, he suddenly called out, "Han Wang..."
