Nan Qiao keenly sensed his gaze. Hence, she didn’t like Cheng Jie very much and kept a certain distance from him. At this moment, Murong Chen seemed to sense his Little Sister’s uneasiness and put a hand on Nan Qiao’s shoulder.

His gentle gaze met Nan Qiao’s dark eyes.

Don’t worry, Big Brother is here.

Nan Qiao was relieved. Big Brother had said that as long as he was around, everything would be fine.

After passing through a garden, they arrived inside. Because the Cheng family was an old family, be it the renovation style or the home design, they were all ancient.

Thus, it made everyone look a little out of place. On the contrary, Nan Qiao’s outfit matched the theme of the main hall coincidentally.

The banquet had yet to begin, so everyone stood in the hall to admire the calligraphy paintings hanging on the walls and some sculptures.

“President Murong, it’s really rare to see you at Old Master Cheng’s banquet.” As soon as Murong Chen entered, the others immediately came up to him and talked to him. Out of politeness, he had to respond to them and answer from time to time.

There were a few people in the hall who were either admiring calligraphy and paintings or using their connections to talk about work. Only Nan Qiao seemed to have nothing to do.

However… didn’t Nuo Nuo say that she would come too?

Nan Qiao began to look for An Nuo.

She didn’t see An Nuo, but saw Cheng Jie walking towards her.

“It must be boring. There are more people here, and the environment is more oppressive. Shall I accompany you for a walk?”

Nan Qiao was very wary of this person. She took two steps back and distanced herself from him.

In a distant voice, she said, “I don’t like others being so close to me.”

“Sorry, I was rude.” He apologized with a bright smile.

Tonight, he was dressed very solemnly in a white suit, which matched his image as a bright boy. He had a scholarly aura and looked gentle and refined. It was obvious that he was a child of the Cheng family.

However, Nan Qiao felt that this person was not as simple as he looked. No matter how well he hid it, his eyes would not lie. The sharpness in his eyes from time to time made her feel uncomfortable.

Nan Qiao glanced at An Nuo, who had followed her parents through the door, and her expression softened. “Thank you for your kindness, but I don’t need it.” Watching the girl leave, he touched his chin and couldn’t help but wonder if his charm had decreased.

Why was she not moved at all?

“Cheng Jie.” A girl called out and patted him on the shoulder.

Then, he turned around.

“Luo Wanbai, you’re back?” He was a little surprised in his heart to see his former foreign alumnus appear at his family’s banquet.

“You are…” He immediately searched among the guests tonight for anyone with the surname Luo and quickly confirmed his target. “The Luo family’s daughter?”

“Yes, even if you didn’t invite me, I still came. How is it? Are you surprised?” She smiled sweetly. Tonight, he was really handsome. She had never seen him so handsome before.

He was becoming more and more charming. She had to capture this man’s heart.

“Of course, I’m very happy that you’re here.” He smiled to cover up the strange feeling in his heart.

He knew that Luo Wanbai had always liked him.

However, apart from celebrating his grandfather’s birthday tonight, his family also wanted to choose a suitable wife for him. The Luo family was definitely not suitable, so they would naturally be excluded.

However, since Luo Wanbai had not confessed her feelings for him yet, he could not reject her directly.

Just like that, it dragged on.

It was really a waste of his patience, and he couldn’t help but feel a little frustrated.

“I still have to go out and receive guests. I’ll go out first.”

“Okay, go ahead.” She tried her best to maintain the image of a lady, even though Cheng Jie didn’t seem to care about the expensive dress she was wearing.

When he left, disgust and disdain flashed in his eyes.

They used to be friends, but ever since he found out that she liked him, Cheng Jie started to feel annoyed by her.

However, he had always been concerned about his image, so he did not fall out with her.

Previously, Luo Wanbai had clearly said that she would stay overseas to develop, but for some reason, she was back now.

Cheng Jie glanced at the aqua-blue figure. Beside her stood a girl in a pink short skirt. The two of them were chatting and laughing unlike how Nan Qiao was earlier with him. When she was in front of him, she was like a little hedgehog, ready to fight.

She looked so pretty when she smiled.

Of course, Luo Wanbai understood what was going on. Before she came over just now, there was a girl standing beside Cheng Jie. From the looks of it, Cheng Jie was clearly the one who had been rejected.

She clenched her fists indignantly. Because of the special color of her clothes, she found Nan Qiao almost immediately.

She wanted to get to know what kind of person could seduce Cheng Jie.

“Everyone on the Internet is saying that Xu Qinsang will be the male lead of ‘Fearless’, but our idol’s image is clearly more suitable for the role. I wonder who will get such a top-notch resource.”

An Nuo was like an old mother. She was really worried about Xian Yu’s resources.

She whispered into Nan Qiao’s ear, “Qiao- Your brother hasn’t posted for a long time. Let him post on Weibo the next time you see him. It’s best if he can take selfies.”

If he didn’t consolidate his fans, the others would really run to Xu Qinsang. “Alright, the next time I see him, I’ll definitely ask him to post a selfie!” Nan Qiao promised.

“Your fan is really beautiful. Where did you custom-make it?” An Nuo held Nan Qiao’s fan and looked at it repeatedly. She liked it very much.

“If you like it, I’ll give it to you after the banquet.”

“Oh yeah!”

An Nuo was no longer polite to Nan Qiao.

After all, in An Nuo’s heart, Nan Qiao had already risen several levels and became a rich woman who could provide for her.

An Nuo stuffed the dark blue folding fan back into Nan Qiao’s hand, her eyes indicating that someone was approaching from behind her.

The person was already behind her, but she had no intention of stopping.

Nan Qiao decisively dodged and immediately left the spot where she was standing.

“Ah…”

Luo Wanbai only wanted to bump into Nan Qiao, but she didn’t expect Nan Qiao to dodge. She tripped on her high heels and almost fell.

She had to pat her chest to calm herself and regain composure after that.

Luckily, she did not fall.

In the end, she looked up and met Nan Qiao’s bright little face and sparkling eyes.

She shouted in disbelief, “It’s you!”
