Chapter 251: Chapter 251: Birthday Banquet Face-Slapping (9)
Miss Jiang Zhe had not personally t Qin Qing yet, but she had already heard about her countless tis from the lips of Qin Hai and knew that several of Qin Yan’s lapses were because of her, so Qin Qing didn’t dare to be negligent.
He too had changed into a black suit and tied a bowtie.
The only difference was Qin Yan, among the four brothers, Qin Yan was the tallest and largest in size.
He was even taller than Qin Yan himself.
However, due to his size, he appeared sowhat simple-minded.
The excessively sturdy body wearing a white suit and a white bowtie.
He usually dressed very casually, so such attire made him look sowhat unnatural.
In his mouth, he was mumbling, “Miss Jiang, I wish you a happy age, everlasting youth, as today the sun, the moon, and the stars converge, converge, all to wish Miss Jiang…”
Qin Qing couldn’t help but laugh.
When Qin Yan was interrupted, he was not annoyed and started reciting again, “Miss Jiang, best wishes, best wishes, the sun, the moon, and the stars, no, that’s not right…”
Jiang Zhe received a ssage on her phone, and when she heard that Qin Jingchen had arrived, she walked out of the private room at a leisurely pace.
She had thought he would just co over as usual, accompanied by Fen Ye and Qin Hai, but to her surprise, as soon as Jiang Zhe stepped out, she saw a grand entourage of many people.
Xiao ng and Xia Enci were also startled by the scene.
Qin Jingchen was still walking in the forefront, with everyone surrounding him on both sides.
Apart from Fen Ye and Qin Hai, whom everyone commonly saw, there were also several young masters from noble families, the dashing He Zizhou, the naive and handso Liang Tian, the refined Han Dongliang, and additionally, Qin Qing and Qin Yan, whom the crowd had seen for the first ti.
There were also many people following them.
It looked like a large group of people coming toward Jiang Zhe.
Jiang Zhe had not expected them to make such a grand gesture, all dressed and adorned as if they were attending a banquet for an international finance conference.
In contrast, she was still just wearing a semi-new school uniform.
But even wearing a school uniform did not affect Jiang Zhe’s temperant in the least or detract from her beauty.
On the contrary, maybe because she had been around a lot of people and had moved more than a few steps, her cheeks were tinged with crimson, whether from the heat or being in a flustered mood—adding a touch of delicate charm and softening the typically cold aspect of her deanor.
If she resembled a fox before, today she seed more fittingly cat-like.
Thinking of the ticklish sensation of a cat’s paw in the palm of one’s hand, Qin Jingchen felt a tingling sensation in his heart.
He subconsciously wanted to fiddle with the Buddha Beads, only then realizing it had been a very long ti since he had worn them.
Jiang Zhe saw admiration brimming in Qin Jingchen’s eyes before he swiftly returned to calm.
It was as if the turbulent rapids feared sweeping away so secret and forcibly cald down, returning to the usual still waters run deep.
Qin Jingchen reached out and took Jiang Zhe’s hand, “Happy birthday.”
A simple four words, but coming from his mouth, in a deep and llow voice, those words were imbued with enough charm.
“Thank you,” Jiang Zhe tried to withdraw her hand from his grasp.
But he held on very tightly.
Before she could move again, Fen Ye, He Zizhou, and others had already crowded around, each expressing their good wishes, and the scene suddenly beca lively.
The gifts also ca one after the other like flowing water, and Xiao ng and Xia Enci not exaggeratedly said that just receiving these gifts was enough to make their hands go soft.
This was Qin Qing’s first ti seeing Jiang Zhe, and he stepped forward to greet her politely, “Miss Jiang, hello.”
“Qin Qing, my assistant,” Qin Jingchen introduced briefly.
With one glance, Qin Qing could tell that Jiang Zhe’s temperant was extraordinary. Although Qin Hai’s bragging about her seed a bit exaggerated, compared to her actual aura, it didn’t seem too far-fetched after all.
Finally, it was Qin Yan’s turn. He had finally managed to squeeze in.
Because he was exceptionally strong, he stood out conspicuously.
Qin Jingchen briefly introduced Jiang Zhe to everyone.
That also ant that the most important people around Qin Jingchen had now t Jiang Zhe.
What this ant, Jiang Zhe wasn’t unaware.
She looked up at Qin Yan to find his face beet-red, “Jiang, Miss Jiang…”
Compared to the smooth naturalness of others, Qin Yan’s manner ca across as a bit too unsophisticated.
But no one interrupted him; instead, they all fell silent, waiting for her to finish.
Peaceful and serene.
Jiang Zhe thought of this phrase, knowing that these four n could beco Qin Jingchen’s most capable assistants, each with their own abilities and strengths.
She had plenty of patience, whereas Qin Yan was the nervous one, “Blessings to you, may your youthful, youthful beauty remain forever…”
The most florid congratulatory words were his, and once he finished the sentence, he appeared to forget the rest, even more embarrassed, anxiously at a loss, but he couldn’t rember what ca next.
Qin Jingchen spoke calmly, “Your blessings have been received by Jiang Zhe, they’re sincere enough.”
“Yes, thank you,” Jiang Zhe followed with a sentence.
Qin Yan then wiped the sweat that had ford on his forehead.
It was only then that Jiang Zhe realized Qin Jingchen had been holding her hand the whole ti, accepting these blessings – the posture almost seed as if…
“Jingchen!” Jiang Yaowang ca out.
Director Song followed behind him, “My apologies for not eting you further out, Mr. Qin.”
Both knew Qin Jingchen was coming, but with many guests in the private room, Jiang Yaowang had his hands full exchanging pleasantries and was incredibly busy.
Director Song had thus taken the initiative to greet the distinguished guest, which is why they only now noticed Qin Jingchen’s arrival.
“Grandfather, Director Song,” Qin Jingchen nodded in greeting.
Both noticed Qin Jingchen and Jiang Zhe’s tightly clasped hands.
Jiang Zhe always appeared nonchalant, while Qin Jingchen held her hand very tight, as if afraid she would pull away.
Jiang Yaowang looked on with full approval.
Director Song was sowhat surprised by their relationship but quickly regained his composure, “Mr. Qin, please co inside.”
When Qin Jingchen entered, the whole private room was still filled with laughter and talking.
Many had never seen him in person, but upon seeing the four n of Peaceful and Serene and others like Fen Ye following him, who would doubt his identity?
Suddenly, a good half of the people in the room couldn’t help but stand up.
Fen Ye, with the attitude of half a host, told everyone, “Please sit, no need to be courteous.”
Everyone then slowly sat back down.
Clearly, no one had expected Qin Jingchen to co.
But seeing him holding Jiang Zhe’s hand, beneath their surprise, it seed as if his coming wasn’t so surprising after all.
Still, they inevitably found it strange, Jiang Zhe and Qin Jingchen…
Two people with no connection whatsoever, what was the situation that had brought them together?
Qin Jingchen wasn’t concerned with what the people around him thought and walked straight to the main seat in the private room. When he saw Wu Jiang, he was slightly astonished.
The leading figure of the National Calligraphy Institute, who lived reclusively and hadn’t socialized for a long ti, had actually appeared at Jiang Zhe’s birthday party.
