Jiang Li was about to say "How could I?" when Qiao Nian's cell phone rang.
The girl took her phone from her pocket and looked at the caller ID. Then, her expression suddenly turned serious. She stood up and said, "I'm going to take a call."
"Ah, okay," Jiang Li replied.
Qiao Nian walked out of the garden to find a quiet corner.
Seeing that she was in a hurry, Jiang Li turned to his brother with a worried expression. "Who do you think it is? I think Nian Nian's reaction was a little strange just now."
Jiang Yao knew he was not wele and did not speak all this time. He leaned back in the chair with his broad shoulders and looked at Jiang Li with his dark eyes. "Her circle of friends is too plicated. It's probably a friend. Don't worry about her. She's more mature than you and me."
Jiang Li said, "That's true."
Jiang Yao rubbed his face before asking, "You have three VIP tickets?"
"Mm?"
Jiang Li paused before quickly realizing he was asking about the premiere tickets. He nodded in surprise. "What's wrong?"
Jiang Yao expressionlessly said, "Give me one."
"You?" Jiang Li looked as if he had seen a ghost. He frowned and shrugged. "Why do you need tickets? Haven't you been uninterested in the entertainment industry since you were young?"
Jiang Yao was influenced by Tang Wanru. Like Jiang Xianrou, he looked down on the entertainment industry.
Back then, when he wanted to enter the entertainment industry, Jiang Yao had helped his parents and tried to persuade him many times to give up. Several times, because he was disobedient, Jiang Yao was so angry that he wanted to hit him.
Jiang Li remembered it very clearly.
Jiang Yao did not like the entertainment industry and was not interested in movies, celebrities, and so on.
His mind was filled with business and finance, and his personality was like his father's. He was old-fashioned, dull, and boring.
"Didn't you want her to attend the premiere?" Jiang Yao's tone was calm. "There will be so many reporters and media personnel at the event location. If someone recognizes her, with her identity, do you think she will be less popular than you?"
"Uh..."
"I have nothing to do, so I'll go take a look." Jiang Yao's tone was indifferent. "I can help block them if someone pesters her for an interview."
Jiang Li finally understood.
Jiang Yao did not ask him for VIP tickets to watch the premiere, nor was he suddenly interested in celebrities. He just felt that Nian Nian would not be fortable in that situation.
"When did you bee so concerned about Nian Nian?" Jiang Li asked in a low voice.
A trace of embarrassment flashed across Jiang Yao's face, but he quickly hid it. He said with a poker face, "At least we're not enemies."
At his ambiguous answer, Jiang Li understood that he and Qiao Nian still needed a long time to get used to each other and repair the rift.
He did not insist and sat back in his seat. It was rare for him to calm down. "Alright, I'll tell my manager to send you a ticket."
"Yes." Jiang Yao looked at the gift box at his feet and said, "Give this to her later. I won't look for her alone. It's more convenient for you."
Jiang Li had no objections to this arrangement. "Okay."

On the other side.
Qiao Nian walked to the long corridor behind the garden and accepted the call. "Hello."
Jian Jin said, "I want to tell you something."
Qiao Nian looked at Old Master Jiang and the others in the garden courtyard and nodded. "What is it? Is it related to Lu Zhi?"
