Chapter 1250 - Dad Said He Wasn’t Coming

Jiang Yao had arranged the main seat for her. The seat beside her was also one of the main seats. He had originally planned to leave it for Qiao Nian.

However, Yuan Qing pulled Jiang Xianrou to the seat that originally belonged to Qiao Nian like an old fool.

Jiang Yao’s eyebrows immediately twitched. He couldn’t help but shout, “Grandma, that seat…”

Yuan Qing pretended to be stupid and looked at him in confusion. She even asked him shamelessly, “Seat? What seat? Am I sitting wrongly? Aiya, let me give up my seat.”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

She looked as if she wanted to give up the main seat.

How could Jiang Yao let an elder sit at the side? He endured it and his face twitched. “No, Aunt, sit.”

Yuan Qing continued the game. “Ah, I didn’t make a mistake. Then, I’ll sit down?”

She sat down and immediately grabbed Jiang Xianrou’s hand. She did not give Jiang Yao a chance to ask to say anything and started nagging.

Jiang Xianrou also knew whose seat this was from Jiang Yao’s reaction, but she had no intention of giving it up. She pretended not to know and chatted with Yuan Qing casually, not looking at him.

Tang Wanru also found a seat and sat beside Jiang Zongnan. Seeing this scene, a mocking sneer flashed across her eyes. She did not remind Jiang Xianrou to give up the main seat and instead turned to the middle-aged man. “Zongnan, why isn’t Dad here yet? Do you want me to get the driver to pick him up?”

Due to Yuan Qing’s seniority, Jiang Zongnan was as embarrassed as Jiang Yao to make things too clear. However, seeing that Qiao Nian’s seat had been taken by Jiang Xianrou, he felt a slight headache coming on. He replied absent-mindedly, “Dad said that his health wasn’t good, so he didn’t come.”

A trace of coldness flashed across Tang Wanru’s eyes. Heh, what did he mean by not feeling well? The old fox was clearly angry with them and was unwilling to come.

She didn’t mind. Anyway, Old Master Jiang was already old. The Jiang family’s connections were basically in their hands, and the family had split up.

Since everyone was unwilling to do their job well, she also couldn’t be bothered to do her job!

She smiled and did what a daughter-in-law should do in front of Jiang Zongnan; she pretended to be concerned. “What’s wrong with Dad again?”

She paused for a second and asked worriedly, “The climate has changed a lot these past few days. Did Dad catch a cold? Should we get a doctor to take a look at him?”

Look how concerned he was.

No one could find any fault with her.

Jiang Zongnan’s tense nerves also relaxed because of her concern. He looked at her with a gentle expression. “It’s fine. Dad’s been much stronger than before ever since he started taking the health supplements Nian Nian bought for him. He probably didn’t rest well tonight.”

He knew very well why Old Master Jiang did not come. However, his head hurt as if an electric drill had drilled through it when he thought about it.

“Forget it, don’t worry about Dad. He’s old, and it’s good for his body to do less. It takes a lot of time to come and go. It’s nighttime, too. If he doesn’t come, so be it. We’ll just eat. It’s just that Big Brother and Nian Nian haven’t arrived yet. We don’t know when they’ll come. We can only wait for them and start the banquet when everyone is here.”

Of course, Tang Wanru saw that Qiao Nian was not here yet.

She had already mentally prepared herself. Her reaction was indifferent when Qiao Nian was mentioned. She did not comment. “It’s okay. Let’s wait.”

“Yeah.”

The door of the private room was pushed open from the outside as soon as Jiang Zongnan finished speaking.
