Chapter 874 Qiao Nian’s School Promotion Banquet
The skin on her palm was almost torn apart by her nails. No matter how unwilling she was, she did not dare to talk back to Shen Jingyan. She silently closed her eyes as tears rolled down.
Qiao Nian was really an unkillable scourge!
In the living room, Qiao Chen was sobbing softly.
However, Shen Jingyan was in a rage and did not want to bother with her.
Wei Ling ignored her and sat there, rolling her eyes.
Only Qiao Weimin and Shen Qiongzhi’s hearts ached for her, but they couldn’t say anything.
Seeing that the atmosphere in the room had fallen to a freezing point, Qiao Weimin stood out to change the topic. “By the way, did you guys receive the invitation to Nian Nian’s school promotion banquet?”
“Qiao Nian is holding a school promotion banquet?” This was the first time Shen Jingyan had heard of it. After being surprised, he raised his eyes to look at Qiao Chen, who was standing there crying only. He became even more vexed. “No, I didn’t receive it.”
“She didn’t send you an invitation?” Qiao Weimin was extremely shocked.
Wei Ling combed her hair and said strangely, “Don’t tell me you think it was Qiao Nian who sent you the invitation?”
“What do you mean?” Qiao Weimin looked at her, not understanding what was going on. “If it was not Nian Nian, who was it?”
“Hmph.” Wei Ling sneered and said in a disdainful tone, “That wolf cub Qiao Nian can’t wait to cut ties with us. No one will acknowledge her, so how could she possibly send you an invitation? I’ve also heard about the invitation. The banquet is being organized by the Jiang family. Old Master Jiang wants to hold a school promotion banquet for Qiao Nian. Many people in Beijing received an invitation from the Jiang family. Old Master Jiang probably wants to use this opportunity to acknowledge his kin and push Qiao Nian to everyone in Beijing. He wants to tell everyone that their Jiang family’s bloodline has been found… The invitation you received should have been sent by Old Master Jiang.”
Old Master Jiang probably didn’t send this invitation to Qiao Weimin and Shen Qiongzhi to invite them for a meal. Old Master Jiang knew how biased Shen Qiongzhi and Qiao Weimin were against Qiao Nian while she was at their place. As for why he still sent an invitation to Qiao Weimin, he probably had the intention of helping Qiao Nian seek justice.
He wanted the Qiao family to see that the girl they treated like grass was now someone they couldn’t reach!
Old Master Jiang’s move was lethal.
However, he had put in so much effort, but he couldn’t stop some of the Jiang family’s own people.
Wei Ling was full of smiles at the mention of this. Her mood, which had been depressed earlier, became much better. She laughed softly and said, “I heard that Jiang Xianrou isn’t going back on the day of the Jiang family’s banquet. She ‘happens’ to be following her teacher, Liang Lu, to do a very important medical experiment. She doesn’t have time for that banquet…”
Tsk, if she had the heart, no experiment would be that important for her to miss this banquet.
To put it bluntly, she didn’t welcome her cousin who had come all the way here.
Miss Jiang didn’t think much of her.
Wei Ling was happy that this drama was taking place in their family. With a mocking tone, she said to everyone in a low voice, “Besides Jiang Xianrou, a few others invited by Old Master Jiang aren’t going too. After all… not many people in Beijing would care about a girl who came all the way here just for a meal. I think Old Master Jiang’s banquet is destined to be cold and empty!”
At the Jiang Residence.
Old Master Jiang was also troubled by this matter. He had just finished speaking to a person who was on good terms with the Jiang family. He put down his phone and his smile faded.
He threw his cell phone on the table and raised his hand to press on his temple with a frustrated expression.
Jiang Zongnan was also on the phone outside. He came in after the call and walked to his side. Seeing his troubled look, he hesitated for a moment and then said softly, “Dad, the Ji family can’t come either. They said that they were going to visit their relatives that day. I’ve contacted all the people I can contact on my side. Only two or three people are free that day. What about you?”
