Chapter 3045: Didn’t Receive the Invitation
Editor: Atlas Studios
Qiao Nian’s birthday was coming up at the end of the month.
People in Beijing received invitations one after another.
This time, Ye Wangchuan had full authority to handle the invitations.
He handed the Jiang Family’s relatives’ invitations to Jiang Li. He would personally select the others and invite only those he thought were suitable.
Master Cheng of the Ninth Branch and Nie Mi of Qing University received invitations to Qiao Nian’s birthday one after another, followed by Yuan Yongqin and Wei Lou. He even considered Xu Jishen.
As most people received invitations, one family was an exception.
At the Jiang Corporation.
Tang Wanru entered the office in her high heels.
The secretary followed her carefully. “Madam, President Jiang is in a meeting. Please rest inside for a while. I’ll inform President Jiang you’re here when he comes out.”
Tang Wanru walked straight to the mahogany guest sofa and sat down. She placed her bag aside and instructed the secretary, “Get me a cup of coffee.”
“Okay.” The secretary didn’t dare to refuse and quickly went out.
After a few minutes, the secretary gently placed the coffee cup on the table beside her. “Madam, I’ll return to my post. Call me if you need anything.”
“Mm.”
Tang Wanru picked up the coffee and took a sip, not bothering to look as the secretary turned to leave.
The secretary closed the office door on the way out.
About two hours later.
A middle-aged man in a suit finally entered the office. He immediately loosened his tie and impatiently asked, “What are you doing here?”
Ever since Jiang Xianrou was sentenced.
Tang Wanru and Jiang Zongnan were at a stage where they looked united but were emotionally separated. The couple did not divorce because of Jiang Yao and Jiang Li.
Tang Wanru watched as he brushed past her to the desk and sat down. She suppressed her anger and walked over. “Did you receive an invitation from that person?”
“Who?” Jiang Zongnan did not look up. He put down his fountain pen, took a folder, opened it, and buried his head in his work.
Seeing that he did not even want to look at her, Tang Wanru pinched her palm and could not hold back her resentment. “Do you really not want to see me?”
Jiang Zongnan finally looked up at the woman standing opposite him.
Tang Wanru had aged a lot. The corners of her eyes and eyebrows were still the same, but she was no longer as vigorous as before. She looked exhausted no matter how expensive her makeup was.
He looked at his wife, whom he had loved for decades and who had given birth to his children. His heart softened. Sighing, he put down the pen and asked, “Tell me.”
Seeing that he was finally willing to put down his work and listen to her, Tang Wanru quickly said, “I had tea with a few friends outside this afternoon. They said the Zhang family received an invitation to your niece’s birthday. How can we as her family not receive her birthday invitation?!
“I didn’t know how to answer them. I could only pretend to have received the invitation long ago.” Tang Wanru’s face was ashen and ugly. “What do you think she means by this?!”
Jiang Zongnan understood now. He raised his head and asked, “Nian Nian?”
“Heh. If not her, who else can it be?!” Tang Wanru was unable to hide her disgust and hatred, but she still fussed about not receiving Qiao Nian’s birthday invitation.
This behavior was extremely contradictory.
In fact, it was ridiculously contradictory.
