Chapter 3042: Master Wang Is Going to Make a Big Banquet for Sister Nian’s Birthday
Editor: Atlas Studios
“When Jiang Xianrou turned 20, your aunt invited everyone she knew in Beijing. Even Old Master was invited.”
Qiao Nian turned the chair and finally looked at him.
Ye Wangchuan raised his eyebrows. “They hired the respected Old Master Wei to give a speech and booked a hundred tables in the hotel. It was one of Beijing’s most prestigious coming-of-age ceremonies that year.
“Jiang Xianrou can only be considered second-rate in Beijing. 20th birthday parties that are more low-key but of a higher standard than hers also happen all the time.”
The Jiang Family was not considered to be at the top in Beijing. They were better than ordinary families but worse than the top families—somewhere in the middle.
Back then Jiang Xianrou became like that because she successfully infiltrated Qin Si’s small circle. With Ye Wangchuan in charge, most people would give her some face.
Therefore, Jiang Xianrou was glorious when she turned 20.
Jiang Zongnan also used Old Master Jiang’s old connections to invite Old Master Wei to be the most important witness, undoubtedly raising Jiang Xianrou’s status.
Ye Wangchuan’s gaze was like the galaxy as he stared at her. “Even Jiang Xianrou can have such pomp. Of course, your 20th birthday can’t be worse than hers!”
Qiao Nian obediently listened to him finish before turning her head with a helpless expression. “I don’t care about these external things.”
“I care.” Ye Wangchuan’s answer was quick. While she was distracted, he grabbed her pen with elegant and calm movements.
Qiao Nian frowned at him.
He put down the fountain pen and glanced at her from the corner of his eyes. The corners of his lips curled up, and he immediately gave her a reason she could not refuse. “I called Uncle and Old Master Jiang tonight. We discussed it, and they have the same thoughts as me. They want to hold a big birthday party. We’ll talk about the details over dinner tomorrow.”
Qiao Nian was speechless.
He was so toxic!
“Goddess Qiao, do you want milk?” Ye Wangchuan took her cup while she was in a daze.
Qiao Nian returned to her senses and saw he was about to pour milk for her. She raised her eyebrows and turned the chair to face him. “Now you’re discussing it with me.”
Ye Wangchuan was in no hurry. He hummed lazily as his gaze moved from her eye-catching face to her legs. “Because I realized it’s not good for a man to be too much of a freeloader. Occasionally, I have to be more domineering. Otherwise, my girlfriend won’t have any eyes for me.”
Qiao Nian was silent for a moment, her aura suppressed.
Ye Wangchuan put down her cup. “Zhang Yang and the others are cooking hot pot downstairs. Come down to eat if you’re hungry. I’ll heat a glass of milk for you first.”
Qiao Nian watched as he left. After rubbing her swollen temples, she temporarily set aside what she was doing and stood up to follow him. “I’ll come down with you.”
Downstairs.
Zhang Yang and Gu San had already boiled the hot pot. The air was filled with its rich fragrance.
Qin Si was in charge of washing the vegetables. He was wearing funny gloves and carrying plates of chicken tails. Upon seeing Ye Wangchuan and Qiao Nian, he greeted them warmly. “The steak is almost ready. Hurry up, we’re just waiting for the two of you.”
Ye Wangchuan came down first. Zhang Yang made way for him. He was curious upon seeing the cup. “Master Wang, why are you holding a cup?”
Qin Si’s eyes were sharp. He put down the vegetable leaves and said, “Isn’t that Sister Qiao’s cup?”
