She couldn't imagine how a middle-aged man who liked to wear Tang suits and was usually serious could have the nerve to find these cute and slightly...greasy emoticon characters from the limited symbols on his phone.
She asked Jiang Li privately, and Jiang Li said that he was the one who taught her. He told Jiang Zongjin that little girls like cute things, and using more cute emoticons can quickly narrow the distance between two people.
So Qiao Nian is often bombarded with all kinds of cute emoticons from the Jiang family.
[Jiang Zongjin: Your birthday is coming up in a few days. Your grandfather wants to celebrate your birthday. Do you have time? (*?▽?*)]
[Jiang Zongjin: I also want to celebrate your birthday. I never had the chance to do so before. This time I finally have the chance. If you don’t like too much noise, we can just treat a table of people to a meal. Dad wants to celebrate your birthday. o(╥﹏╥)o]
"Sister Nian, are you a little cold? Let me close the window for you." Shen Qingqing shivered at her and kicked Liang Bowen in front of her.
"Brother, close the window."
Liang Bowen: …
God fucking bro!
He was so angry that he slammed the window shut.
Shen Qingqing thought he was targeting her, and the two started arguing again.
Qiao Nian got goose bumps all over her body and was very annoyed. She was in no mood to care about these elementary school students' quarrel. She couldn't understand what they were up to.
[Jiang Li: Grandpa wants to come back to Raocheng to celebrate your birthday. His legs are not good, and my dad won't let him come. Give him a call when you are free in the evening. Even if others say it is useless, he will listen to you.]
[Jiang Zongjin: Nian Nian, where do you want to eat on your birthday? How about the Shui Xie Xuan restaurant we went to last time? Jiang Li said you liked it. "^o^"]
Qiao Nian hasn't figured out how to reply to them yet.
Jiang Zongnan's message came in again.
[Jiang Zongnan: Nian Nian, what gift do you want for your birthday this weekend? Uncle Er will buy it for you.]
Qiao Nian's eyebrows jumped violently.
Instead of replying to the Jiang family’s message, he directly found someone’s profile picture and quickly typed a line of words in reply.
[QN: Did you ask Jiang Li about my birthday?]
She thought Ye Wangchuan didn't see the news so quickly.
Unexpectedly, after a while, a reply came slowly.
[Ye Wangchuan: When I sent you a message, Chenchen was beside me. He saw it and wanted to celebrate your birthday, so he asked Jiang Li. What's wrong? Did I cause you trouble? Let me talk to him.]
Convex!
Qiao Nian was so depressed that he had no place to vent, but he was reluctant to blame the little brat for being nosy, so he could only frown and suppress the depression.
Replied silently.
[QN: Oh, it’s okay.]
She remembered the little guy hugging her with tears in his eyes and saying that he was a little cripple. Her heart softened, her hands paused, and she sent him another message.
[QN: Don’t talk about Chenchen, he is still sick.]
After she replied to Ye Wangchuan, she rubbed her brows, calmed down for a long time, and then replied to Jiang Zongjim.
[QN: Let’s go to Shuixiexuan.]
[Jiang Zongjin: Okay, I'll reserve a seat. By the way, Nian Nian, you can invite a few friends to come with you. I'll invite the classmates who had dinner with you before. Your class teacher is a good person, invite him as well, as well as the dean of studies, Principal Yu... Well, I'll think about who to invite when I get back.]
Qiao Nian originally wanted to reply that he would not call anyone, but after thinking it over, he gave up and sent a message to Yuan Yongqin, Wei Lou and Su Huaiyuan respectively.
