“Qingqing went to the airport to pick up a friend,” Ye Zhenmian explained, hanging the ‘Closed for Business’ sign outside the door. “Please have a seat, I’ll have the kitchen bring out the snacks we’ve prepared.”Rêađ latest cha/p/ters on
Xiao Wenjian nodded in acknowledgment, “Mrs. Nian, you are too kind.”
Mu Qingmeng instructed the guards to bring in the gifts they had prepared.
Lowering his voice, Xiao Wenjian glanced around and whispered to his wife, “Lady, is Miss Si really as miraculous as you’ve said?”
“Of course,” Mu Qingmeng replied. “You know of my condition, which was thought incurable, yet Qinqin effortlessly cured my heart ailment with her herbal teas. If that’s not the work of a divine doctor, what is?”
“Such ability at a young age, and yet not boastful like some. Very good indeed,” Xiao Wenjian remarked. “Lady, what do you think about discussing a marriage alliance with Mrs. Nian? Our son is already twenty-two.”
“That’s not possible,” Mu Qingmeng decisively rejected the idea. “He’s not worthy, and you’re dreaming.”
Xiao Wenjian was left speechless.
He should have told his son earlier that he, too, held no significant status within the family.
Outside, Ye’s father had passed out.
With a bruised face, Ye Huai’an was in a state of panic as he blurted out, “Who exactly are you people? You know this is illegal, right? I’m going to sue you!”
“Sue us?” JIANG Shuihan smiled elegantly, his voice as light as a breeze. “You’re welcome to try.”
In the city of Sijiu, the Thousand Army Alliance was the law.
“We’ve called an ambulance for you,” JIANG Shuihan added indifferently. “Good luck.”
He instructed a few guards to clean up the mess and then saw Ji Qingyao staring at an advertisement on a large screen ahead.
It was a trailer for ‘Crossing the Demon Realm’.
JIANG Shuihan raised an eyebrow, “Miss Ji, are you also a fan?” Ji Qingyao paused briefly, then pursed her lips and nodded slightly.
“The alliance leader and his wife are here to celebrate Miss Sits birthday,” JIANG Shuihan explained. ‘Miss Si is very approachable, and Miss Ji, you are welcome to join us inside.”
Ji Qingyao had not expected Xiao Wenjian and Mu Qingmeng to make a trip to An City just for Si Fuqing’s birthday. She bowed, “Thank you, Captain JIANG.”
Meanwhile, at An City International Airport.
Si Fuqing was picking up JI Xingzhi and had not yet left the airport. Xie Yu, Xie Yanqiu, and Yun Fengzhi, the family of three had also arrived.
She decided to pick them up as well.
“Youth With You” was a hit, and Xie Yu, having signed with the director and producer Roz during the final night, had released an album this year that ranked high on the music charts.
In the Great Xia Empire, he was the only one who had achieved such instant fame after debuting.
Xie Yu currently had more fans than Si Fuqing and was almost catching up to Su Yang.
He had secretly returned to An City, and fortunately, not many knew about it.
Otherwise, the airport would have been swamped with fans.
Fashion-forward as ever, Xie Yanqiu removed her sunglasses, “Yo, you’re here too? Didn’t wear you out last time you flew back, did it?”
Xie Yu pondered as he glanced at the Pixiu sunbathing on his shoulder.
He had thought it was a mischievous boy.
Si Fuqing sighed, “The whole internet knows I’m broke.”
All because of a gluttonous dog-like Pixiu.
Little Bai innocently licked its paw, blinking.
“No use trying to charm me,” Si Fuqing picked it up with one hand, “Be good these next few days, or no food.”
Just eating and no change, truly money down the Pixiu’s stomach never to return.
By six in the evening, various groups had arrived at Ye Zhenmian’s restaurant.
After school, Nian Yi’an and Lin Jihuan also arrived.
He glanced around the restaurant, puzzled, “Do your relatives seem a bit reserved?”
“Huh?” Lin Jihuan was confused, “What are they reserved about?”
Lin Bojian truly hadn’t expected to encounter JIANG Shuihan here.
Everyone in Sijiu knew that JIANG Shuihan was the spokesperson for the Thousand Army Alliance’s leader and his wife when they were away.
Xiao Wenjian and Mu Qingmeng rarely appeared in public, and those visiting the alliance usually saw JIANG Shuihan the most.
With JIANG Shuihan here, standing behind a woman, her identity was clear.
The wife of the Thousand Army Alliance leader.
The man beside her could only be the leaderhimself.
Lin Bojian nearly dropped his glass.
He dared not share a table with the leader of the Thousand Army Alliance, excusing himself to sit at a different table.
Ten minutes later, Lin Bojian’s hands were still shaking, unable to calm down.
The leader of the Thousand AnnyA11iance himself, attending Si Fuqings birthday banquet—it was supposed to be just a simple family dinner!
Lin Jihuan sat down next to Lin Qingchen, “Dad, do you have Huntington’s disease?”
“Nonsense,” Lin Bojian was angered by her words, then he quickly stabilized himself, before he declared, “You don’t understand, and it’s better that way.”
Just as Lin Qingchen was about to speak, the door to the private room opened.
Gu Huiyan sauntered in cheerfully, “Girl, I brought my vase as a gift for you this time, don’t refuse it—”
His words halted abruptly.
Everyone in the room turned to look his way.
Among them were a few very familiar faces.
Xiao Wenjian coughed, reining in his surprise, and rose to bow, “Elder Gu, it’s an honor..”
