Chapter 104: Chapter 104: Gathering at the Birthday Banquet (2)
Old Master Qin was seriously ill, but fortunately, he was no longer in a coma. Aware that Old Master Su was holding a birthday banquet, he had all three of his sons attend, and Qin Jiran was the earliest to arrive among the three great families.
Qin Jiran immediately spotted the man dressed in a black suit with a stern expression on his face, his biological father Qin Zhenyi. Seeing him here was not a surprise, so he merely glanced at him briefly before looking away.
Su Yanyi’s gaze, however, was much sharper than Qin Jiran’s, as she scrutinized the Qin family group that came. She wondered what the Qin family was thinking, coming to pay their respects in such a group—nine people in total, three families of three, truly a full mobilization of their household.
"Should I go?" Big Brother Su volunteered proactively. He felt that his younger sister and brother-in-law would certainly not like to see these people, so it had to be him who went.
"Who sent out so many invitations to the Qin family? What a waste of food," commented Su Yanyi, neither confirming nor denying her thoughts. She definitely did not intend to entertain the Qin family, especially not this uninvited group.
"The invitations were sent by Mom. Since everyone was invited, it wouldn’t be good to leave anyone out," Su Yanmo explained as he advanced to greet them.
Su Yanyi looked in the direction of the Qin family members, her eyes suddenly brightening. Pulling Qin Jiran’s hand, she walked over towards them.
The members of the Qin family naturally noticed the reaction of the three people on the Su family’s side, particularly Qin Zhenyi, who stared straight at Qin Jiran, standing still without any intention of moving as if he was waiting for Qin Jiran to come over.
At first, Qin Jiran and Su Yanyi had no intention of greeting them, which made the faces of Qin Zhenyi and his group turn rather unsightly. But just as they were considering what to do, they saw Qin Jiran and Su Yanyi suddenly walking over, prompting them to reveal satisfied smiles.
However, when Su Yanyi and Qin Jiran passed by their side, directly greeting the people behind them instead, the expressions on the Qin family group’s faces grew even uglier.
"Uncle Bai, long time no see," said Su Yanyi with a cold and distinct voice that still carried a hint of familiarity.
Clearly, this was a deliberate move by Su Yanyi—she wanted to slap the Qin family’s face in front of everyone. Coming in a group or not, being unwelcome was unwelcome. She was not the kind of person who would greet someone with a smile even if she disliked them. Since they had provoked her, they should be prepared for the consequences.
The Uncle Bai mentioned by Su Yanyi was Bai Bolun, the current patriarch of the Bai Family, one of the Four Great Families. The Bai Family had long cooperated with the Su family, and their relationship was quite good. Bai Bolun and his family came to celebrate at the perfect time, which Su Yanyi used to her advantage.
Bai Bolun, a shrewd figure, quickly grasped the situation with a sweep of his eyes, and greeted Su Yanyi warmly, "Yanyi, you’ve become more and more beautiful."
"You flatter me. Please come in, Father and Mother are both waiting for you," Su Yanyi led the Bai family inside. As they passed by the Qin family members, she didn’t spare them a glance, treating them as if they were mere decorations.
As the Bai family entered, Young Master Bai, Bai Qing, swiftly walked alongside Su Yanyi and spoke with a familiar tone, "Yanyi, it’s been a long time."
"I knew you were abroad. What made you think of coming back?" Su Yanyi’s tone was relatively friendly. Bai Qing could be considered a childhood friend who grew up with her. Given the good relationship between their families, the children naturally kept in touch. However, since Bai Qing went abroad for his studies after reaching adulthood, he rarely returned.
"I heard you got married. I wanted to come back and see what kind of man is worthy of you," Bai Qing’s tone held a hint of melancholy as his eyes drifted towards Qin Jiran, filled with inquiries and envy.
