These were all families who were on good terms with Mr. Huang. Why were they all here at the Imperial Mansion? Wei Ling didnât understand for a moment and lowered her voice to ask him, â⦠Could it be Mr. Huangâs birthday today?â
She had not heard any news of Mr. Huangâs birthday previously, but with so many people gathered here, she couldnât help but think in this direction.
âI donât know.â Shen Jingyan couldnât guess what was going on. He was more pragmatic. He only thought for a moment before looking up and saying to the two of them, âMr. Huang and the others are on the second floor. Since we bumped into them, letâs go down and greet them.â
His wishful thinking was loud. He said to Wei Ling and Qiao Chen in a deep and powerful voice, âIf Mr. Huang and the others arenât celebrating their birthday, weâll invite them again and see if theyâre willing to come up for a meal.â
Today was Qiao Chenâs apprenticeship banquet. If Mr. Huang, Nie Mi, and the others were willing to come for a âmealâ, it would undoubtedly raise Qiao Chenâs status!
In any case, it wouldnât hurt to go down and greet him. Shen Jingyan had been in the government for many years. He was naturally willing to do this kind of thing that could be done without effort and also to curry favor.
In the beginning, Qiao Chen did not know who her uncle was talking about. When she realized who he was talking about, her eyes flashed as she recalled that Qiao Nian had chosen the Chinese Medicine Faculty.
Mr. Huangâ¦
She smiled and her mood became better.
Qiao Nian couldnât reach him even if she stood on tiptoe, but she herself could go down to greet him with Shen Jingyan and Wei Ling like this. It could be seen how important her background was.
The Jiang familyâs background was not bad. Unfortunately, they didnât think highly of Qiao Nian. Even if they did, compared to the Shen family, the Jiang family was still a little less confident!
â¦
It was almost ten in the afternoon when Qiao Nian received a call from Shen Yugui to remind her that it was the apprenticeship banquet Mr. Huang had arranged for her today. He asked her to remember to go to the Imperial Mansion.
Qiao Nian had not slept at all last night to draw the design plan SEVEN wanted. She only finished the final draft at eight oâclock and sent it to Yuan Yongqin.
When she received the call at ten oâclock, she had basically only slept for two hours before getting up again. In order to stay awake, she took a cold shower and changed her clothes before coming downstairs.
Downstairs, Gu San was moving things. Seeing her coming down, he immediately greeted her. âMiss Qiao, youâre up? What do you want to eat for lunch? Iâll get the nanny to make it.â
âNo need. Iâm going out for a while.â She had taken a cold shower and was actually not very awake. She was extremely sleepy and with her eyes narrowed. Fortunately, she was wearing a sweater. Qiao Nian pulled her hat up and covered her eyes a little. However, she was still sleepy. Looking up, she did not see that familiar figure.
âMaster Wang went out because he had something on today.â
When Gu San heard that she was going out, he was quite surprised. After all, Qiao Nian had not gone out much since she came to Beijing. However, he reacted quickly and immediately put down the things he was busy with. He said thoughtfully, âWhere are you going, Miss Qiao? Iâll send you there.â
âImperial Mansion.â Qiao Nian had no intention of hiding it from him.
Imperial Mansion? Gu San was a little curious as to why Qiao Nian was going there. However, he was only a little curious. He didnât ask and picked up his car key to driveâ¦
Shen Yugui had already mentioned to her that the apprenticeship banquet today was only a small meal. Not many people would be invited.
Qiao Nian wasnât used to crowds. If it became like the last school promotion banquet, she might not have agreed.
Therefore, she had no objections to Shen Yuguiâs suggestion to have a small meal.
