2286 Just an Ordinary Reception Banquet

Qiao Nian did not understand why he had this orange-flavored candy on him, but it tasted good.

Her frustration was diluted by the sweet taste in her mouth. She looked at Ye Wangchuan and lazily asked, “Shall we have dinner together tonight?”

Ye Wangchuan put the cup down and turned to ask her, “With whom?”

Qiao Nian told him what she had just told Qin Si. “Feng Yu, and also my teacher and a few people from the research institute.”

Ye Wangchuan paused for a moment when he heard that Shi Fu was also going. He was a little helpless.

Qiao Nian noticed his momentary pause and thought that he was not free. “Forget it if you don’t have time. I’ll go with Qin Si.”

Ye Wangchuan had already adjusted his mentality. Hearing this, with his white shirt and casual pants outlining his slender legs, he looked down at her and said lazily, “No, I’m fine. I’ll go with you.”

Qiao Nian glanced at him suspiciously and picked up her cell phone again. In the end, she just nodded.

At Lan Pavilion, the private room Feng Yu booked.

6:00 PM.

Qiao Nian and the others arrived at Lan Pavilion on time. The waiter quickly led them to the private room.

Feng Yu and Shi Fu had already arrived.

In addition, Cao Yanhua, Shen Qingfeng, and the others were also there. Shi Fu must have brought them with him.

Each one of them was more excited than the other upon seeing Qiao Nian. Xue Zhu was a woman, so she was more direct. She ignored Ye Wangchuan, who was beside Qiao Nian, and greeted the girl directly, “Qiao Nian, sit here.”

She enthusiastically invited the girl to sit beside her.

Qiao Nian said to the person beside her, “I’ll sit over there.”

Ye Wangchuan raised his eyebrows and looked at Xue Zhu’s face. Elegant and noble, he nodded and said, “I’ll sit with Elder Feng.”

Shi Fu was sitting on Feng Yu’s right. He walked over and pulled open the empty seat on Feng Yu’s left to sit down. Feng Yu happened to block Shi Fu’s angry gaze.

He was calm and composed.

Qin Si also saw Shi Fu staring at Ye Wangchuan the moment they entered. It seemed like the two of them knew each other.

“Ahem! I’ll sit here.” He coughed and touched the bridge of his nose. He could only sit opposite Shi Fu and look at his dark face.

Gu San chose the last empty seat.

The waiter quickly served the dishes.

Feng Yu ordered a lot of dishes, and it did not take long for the table to be filled.

Xue Zhu was a talkative person. She asked Qiao Nian where she had been for the past month and told her about some interesting things that happened in the research institute recently.

She was just like a chatterbox.

Shen Qingfeng was more tactful. He thought of Feng Yu and Shi Fu and would find a topic to bring up the two elders from time to time.

Xu Yi had his head lowered to eat the entire time. If not for his outstanding appearance and cold and eye-catching temperament, he probably would not have any presence at the table.

At first, Qiao Nian thought that Feng Yu had called her out to talk about something. She did not expect it to be a simple welcome banquet.

After three rounds of drinking, the air conditioner was not working as hard, and the air was not circulating much. It was a little hot.

Xue Zhu even shared some gossip about the research institute.

Qiao Nian took her cell phone and stood up. “I’m going to the washroom.”

“Ah? Mm.” Xue Zhu immediately asked her, “Do you want me to go with you?”

Qiao Nian was sitting right in front of the air conditioner and her head hurt from the wind. Her temples were throbbing. She pulled out her chair and said, “No need. I’ll be back soon.”

Ye Wangchuan was talking to Feng Yu when he saw the girl walk out of the private room with her cell phone.

Guessing that Qiao Nian was going to the washroom, he retracted his gaze and continued to chat with Feng Yu.
