Aunt Chen thought she knew: "Ah, Master Ye accompanied us for a long time and took us to see the Forbidden City. It was really beautiful there, even more spectacular than what I saw on TV before."
Qiao Nian was silent for a moment, feeling indescribably touched.
She didn't expect that he had done so much in private while she was in seclusion for a few days.
Qiao Nian didn't show it on her face, she just nodded, patted Aunt Chen's shoulder and comforted her, "Let's have a home-cooked meal at noon, don't be nervous, I'm here."
Aunt Chen didn't expect Qiao Nian to notice that she was nervous. She was stunned for a moment, then lowered her head embarrassedly and whispered, "I'm not nervous either."
She was afraid that Qiao Nian might misunderstand, so she quickly raised her head and said, "Mr. Ye and the others were very nice to us. I just...have never seen so many people before, and I don't know where to put my hands and feet."
Aunt Chen has been staying in the Ring City. She goes around the biggest places she has seen, and the most powerful people are the Qiao family and the Fu family. She has never seen such a scene before.
She got off the plane yesterday and Ye Wangchuan came to pick them up and took them to visit various scenic spots and historical sites by car. Today, when they came to the Peace Hotel for dinner, she felt like she was stepping on cotton, a feeling that was unreal.
Fortunately, her husband and son were there, and now seeing Qiao Nian again, Aunt Chen's anxiety was finally relieved.
Qiao Nian comforted her a few more words, talked to Uncle Chen for a few more words, and then got up to find Ye Wangchuan.
Ye Wangchuan was still chatting with Jiang Weishang. He raised his eyes slightly and noticed that Qiao Nian came to find him at some point.
He immediately said a few words to Mr. Jiang, then turned to look at the girl with deep eyes: "What's wrong? Why didn't you talk to Aunt Chen?"
"We're done talking." Qiao Nian's voice was low and hoarse. He reached out and pulled down the brim of his hat, a little absent-mindedly: "You..."
She wanted to ask, 'How long have you been preparing for this birthday?'
Qiao Nian tried to say something, but somehow he couldn't.
Ye Wangchuan kept looking at her until the girl flicked her fingertips and said irritably, "Forget it, it's nothing."
Only then did he let out a faint laugh from his throat, as if he could see through her thoughts, his eyes were full of smiles: "What do you want to say."
Qiao Nian raised his eyes and looked at him from the side. There was a clear height difference from his brow to the bridge of his nose, and the lines of his nose bridge and nose tip were as sharp and clean as if they were drawn.
Tsk, beauty is so alluring.
She looked away, thinking about how to explain why she had impulsively come to see him.
At this moment, Gu San came over and whispered in Ye Wangchuan's ear: "Master Wang, it's almost time."
Ye Wangchuan raised his wrist to check the time.
There are five minutes left until twelve o'clock.
He didn't waste any more time. After saying something to Mr. Ye and the others, he asked Qiao Nian to sit down first and walked straight to the stage.
Soon, the lights in the banquet hall dimmed.
Because there were too many guests, the banquet hall was a little noisy, but the noise was suppressed by the man's deep and powerful voice.
"First of all, I welcome everyone to my girlfriend's birthday party despite their busy schedules. Secondly, I want to say that today, 20 years ago, was a very lucky day..."
Ye Wangchuan's voice was superior and he always maintained his grace, neither fast nor slow, like a gentle breeze blowing across your face, reducing the noise in the banquet hall.
People can't help but turn their attention to him and stop whispering to each other.

On the main table.
Ye Maoshan looked at his own disappointing boy, curled his lips, turned his head and lowered his voice to Ye Lan beside him: "Was he so enthusiastic when I celebrated my 60th birthday?"
