“Your sister passed the initial review of Master Cheng’s laboratory?” Xu Jishen looked at him in surprise and smiled. “Impressive!”
“Are you free tonight?” Jiang Yao asked again.
Although Xu Jishen was not stingy when he praised Jiang Xianrou, his eyes immediately revealed hesitation when Jiang Yao mentioned inviting him to attend Jiang Xianrou’s friend’s gathering. He did not really want to attend.
“Tonight…” Xu Jishen leaned back casually with one hand on his lap, his fingers tapping casually. His rejection was already on the tip of his tongue. “I’m afraid tonight…”
He didn’t get to finish his sentence.
Jiang Yao interrupted him and looked at him shamelessly. He pleaded, “Come with me. We’ll play for a while before leaving.”
Xu Jishen’s words were stuck in his throat. He couldn’t refuse, but he was actually unwilling to go.
He had seen Jiang Yao’s biological sister last time. Jiang Xianrou was not bad-looking, and her temperament was not bad. However, there was an arrogant look in her eyes. She thought that she had hidden it well and was polite to others, but Xu Jishen had ordinary feelings for her and was unwilling to interact with Jiang Xianrou.
After all, the Xu family was not inferior to the Jiang family. He wouldn’t go so far as to curry favor with Jiang Xianrou.
Therefore, Xu Jishen was not interested in pleasing Jiang Xianrou even if she had entered Ye Wangchuan’s circle and knew Qin Si and Bo Jingxing.
He was not interested and was not willing to carry the sedan chair for the Eldest Miss even though she had passed the initial trial of Master Cheng’s laboratory.
However, he couldn’t resist Jiang Yao’s repeated invitations no matter how unwilling he was.
Jiang Yao had a good relationship with him and they were both in Tian Chen. Xu Jishen reluctantly relented and said, “Sigh, seriously, I didn’t say I wouldn’t go!
“I definitely have to congratulate your sister. Accompany me to the mall to buy a gift. I can’t go there empty-handed since I’m going.”
Jiang Yao relaxed at Xu Jishen’s reply. He nodded, knowing that Xu Jishen had changed his words because he was giving him face. He reluctantly said, “Young Master Xu, thank you.”
Xu Jishen smiled and exchanged a few more pleasantries with him.
Jiang Yao took the opportunity to get up and say, “I’m going to the washroom.”
“Go.” Xu Jishen shrugged without any objections, indicating that he could do as he pleased.
Jiang Yao got up and went to the washroom.
He did not go far after leaving the cafe. He took out his phone again, lowered his head, and clicked on the girl’s profile picture on WeChat.
He sent another message.
[Qiao Nian, I saw the trending searches. I heard that you entered the finals. Congratulations on your good results. Good luck in the finals.]
After sending the WeChat message, Jiang Yao thought for a moment and asked, [Xianrou passed the initial trial of Master Cheng’s laboratory today. She invited her friends to dinner. I’ll go over too. Do you want to go? I can pick you up, or you can come over yourself.]
He sent the location of the clubhouse to the girl.
The girl’s profile picture was still silent and there was no reaction. After his message was sent, it was like a stone sinking into the sea. There was no reaction.
Jiang Yao’s mood worsened.
He had been trying to contact Qiao Nian over the past few days. However, her attitude towards him was cold. She didn’t answer his calls or replied to his messages.
Deep down, Jiang Yao still wanted to repair his family’s relationship, but he did not know where to start.
After thinking about it, he thought of inviting Qiao Nian to attend Jiang Xianrou’s friend’s gathering.
