Tang Wei did not give a direct answer, but only said: "I have known her for decades. I heard that she was not in good health recently. She asked me to meet her, so I went out to meet her. I didn't know she would send me an invitation letter in advance."
"I have seen the girl from the Qiao family before. Qiao Chen's grades were average. It would have been difficult for her to get into a top university based on her previous grades. I didn't expect that she would be admitted to Tsinghua University in this joint entrance examination. It was quite unexpected."
"Tsing Hua University is a good school, but grandma, didn't you say before that you would no longer have anything to do with the Qiao family? Even if Qiao Chen is admitted to Tsinghua University, you don't have to go there..."
Tang Qi curled his lips in disapproval. He had also seen Qiao Chen. How could he say that she was hypocritical and ambitious? He didn't think that Qiao Chen would be a big deal if she was admitted to Tsinghua University. Her qualifications were too poor! And her ambitions were too big. Such people were most likely to fall from the heights.
Tang Wei picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip of water, moistened her throat, then raised her head, looked at him and said, "You don't know. It is said that Wei Ling of the Wei family thinks highly of her. For her graduation banquet, Wei Ling invited many people, and many families in Beijing will also come... The Tang family is in a bad situation recently. If they can establish good relations with these families in Beijing, it may not be a way out..."
She was privately quite hesitant about this matter.
After what happened with Liang Heng, and the big setback she suffered at the birthday party at Shuixiexuan, she was really scared and didn't want to provoke Qiao Nian again.
She didn't want to provoke Qiao Nian, so she had to draw a clear line between herself and the people in the Qiao family.
But the Tang family has been under great pressure in the past six months, and nothing has been going smoothly from business to career. In the past six months, her originally gray hair has turned snow-white, which shows that her life has not been smooth.
She also wanted to get out of trouble and restore the Tang family's former glory.
Tang Wei was hesitating. She sat there drinking water intermittently, with her eyes lowered, thinking about whether she should go or not.
Tang Qi's cell phone rang.
He picked up the phone and said "Hello" to the person on the other end. He didn't know what the person said. With a complicated expression, he handed the phone to the exhausted old man on the sofa.
"Grandma, Tangning called. She asked me to give you her phone."
"Ningning's call?"
Tang Ning was the hope of the new generation of the Tang family. Tang Wei had high hopes for Tang Ning. When she heard Tang Ning's name, she smiled, a rare smile on her face. She took the phone from Tang Qi's hand and put it to her ear.
"Hello?"
Tang Ning didn't waste any words and went straight to the point. She briefly talked about how she met Qiao Nian in Beijing when she followed someone to Qin Si's game. She then focused on the fact that Ye Lan would come over and treat them to dinner in the evening.
At the end, she told her grandmother directly that Qiao Nian should not be messed with. She saw it clearly that night that Qin Si, Ye Lan and their gang all supported Qiao Nian. This group of people was the most core and powerful circle in Beijing. Qiao Nian was able to enter this group of people and be supported. No matter what Qiao Nian's background was, with this group of people around, they would treat him like a ancestor!
In addition, she also told Tang Wei about Nie Mi's acceptance of a disciple, saying that the news spread throughout Beijing and that Nie Mi admitted at his birthday party that he had accepted a disciple.
The last disciple.
His name is also Qiao Nian!
I came from outside the city and I am currently in my third year of high school!
She almost said explicitly that this Qiao Nian and that Qiao Nian were the same person, leaving room for Tang Wei to figure it out herself.
Tang Wei hung up Tangning's phone and was silent for a while. She handed the phone back to Tang Qi, and her hesitation disappeared completely. She looked at the big red invitation on the table and said to Tang Qi calmly, "Please tell your grandmother He that I'm sick. We won't be attending Qiao Chen's graduation party!"
