Chapter 3598: Still Didn’t Guard Against the Mechanisms Inside
Editor: Atlas Studios
There were only two shelves in this hidden safe. On the top were some brown folders—probably important contracts.
Qiao Nian did not touch them casually.
Her gaze was mainly focused on the shelf below.
There were only two items on the bottom shelf—an inch-long porcelain bottle and a black agate box. There was also an old photo beside the two items.
Qiao Nian slowly picked up the photo.
...
This should be a photo from decades ago.
Even though it was well-preserved, the edges were yellowed, and the colors had begun to fade.
Qiao Nian narrowed her eyes.
The person in the photo was not Nie Qingru or Ji Qing, but a young man.
When the photo was taken, the man had probably just reached adulthood. His early twenties made him look young and high-spirited.
He smiled brightly at the camera, revealing his white teeth. Even through the photo, she could feel the young man’s momentary happiness.
… Who was this person?
Qiao Nian held the photo, unable to figure out the identity of the person that Nie Qingru had spent so much effort to hide.
She kept the photo and checked the time on her phone.
There were only four minutes left.
In such a short period, she did not have time to think about anything else, nor did she have time to distinguish whether the antidote was in a porcelain bottle or the agate box.
She took both.
Qiao Nian covered her arm and looked up, looking straight at the hidden surveillance cameras in the vault, her face expressionless.
It was almost certain that there was no problem with her chip, but the moment she touched the box, it triggered the alarm system of the entire vault!
With Nie Qingru’s tight control of the box, it was obvious that this alarm must have been connected to her cell phone.
Nie Qingru must have received the news tight after the alarm rang.
**
Reality proved Qiao Nian right.
Outside the charity banquet.
Miss Sapor had just sent this distinguished guest to the intersection and was about to exchange a few last words when Nie Qingru’s cell phone rang. It was not an ordinary call, but a sound similar to a radar alarm.
She was stunned for a moment. Before she could react, Her Majesty’s expression, always arrogant and noble, suddenly changed. She took out her phone and stared at it. Her gaze and aura were terrifying as if someone had stepped on her bottom line.
