After hearing Lu Yan’s words, Qiao Fei calmly replied, “Unfortunately, he is.”
“F*ck…” The swear word came out of her mouth instinctively, and the remaining 10,000 swear words described exactly what Lu Yan was saying.
Qiao Nan was the most influential man in the Qiao family. His methods were despicable and he was cunning.
He was unscrupulous in doing things and had always been favored by the public. He was the most suitable successor to take over the Qiao family business.
After all, Qiao Fei’s older brother, Qiao Mo, was cold and rarely asked about family matters.
Qiao Fei, on the other hand, didn’t care about anyone except Lu Yan.
Hence, Qiao Nan had been getting more and more high-profile in the past few years. To describe it using the northern language, he was too cocky.
Lu Yan had met Qiao Nan a few times and she had a bad impression of the man.
Of course, Lu Yan hated Qiao Nan because of Qiao Fei.
Qiao Nan had schemed against Qiao Fei on more than one occasion. Qiao Fei wasn’t stupid, he just didn’t want to fight with him as he thought that it was lame.
“Why are you afraid of him? You can just eat your food,” Qiao Fei tried to persuade her.
Lu Yan rolled her eyes at him. “Scared of him? You’re really trying to flatter him… I’m not afraid. I don’t even care about him. Who does your second brother think he is?”
“Then let’s go… If we’re late, those old fogeys will nag us again. How annoying.”
Qiao Fei hated those stubborn old men in his family.
To put it nicely, they were the elders of the Qiao Family and the family head’s confidant.
Actually, they were already outdated. Other than his father who listened to them, when it reached Qiao Fei’s generation, none of the three were willing to interact with the elders…
Lu Yan could have rejected this dinner, but she didn’t want to embarrass Qiao Fei’s father.
She braced herself and wore the ballroom dress Qiao Fei had prepared.
She was holding a small bag in her hand. At first glance, she really looked like a top Russian socialite.
But this wasn’t Lu Yan’s true face…
When they arrived at the restaurant, Lu Yan held Qiao Fei’s arm and walked in, giving Young Master Qiao enough face.
The moment they entered the venue, they attracted everyone’s attention.
“Young Master Qiao, Miss Lu…”
Those people greeted one after another.
When they walked near their seats, Lu Yan smiled and said to Qiao Fei’s father, “Uncle Qiao.”
“Yan, I haven’t seen you in a while. How have you been?” Qiao Fei’s father was still smiling.
“Okay. Good.”
“Hurry up and take a seat. You must be tired and hungry. Eat something first.”
Qiao Fei’s father waved and Qiao Fei and Lu Yan sat down.
The 13 elders and Qiao Fei’s second brother, Qiao Nan, sat on either side of them.
There was another woman sitting next to Qiao Fei’s father. She looked to be in her thirties.
She wasn’t very beautiful, but she had a graceful aura. She was fair and exquisite.
Lu Yan guessed that she was Qiao Fei’s father’s confidant.
Because of the three brothers, they didn’t give her an official status, but Lu Yan heard that she had been with Old Master Qiao for a while.
“Sister Yan, why didn’t you tell me you were coming to Russia? I could have picked you up myself,” Qiao Nan said.
With a playful smile…
As soon as he finished speaking, Qiao Fei glared at him…
Lu Yan chuckled. “If I knew you were at home, I wouldn’t have come even if I was paid.”
“Hahaha… Do you have to be so direct? You’re not giving me any face at all.” Qiao Nan laughed honestly.
“Why should I? After all, I hate you,” Lu Yan said with a smile.
Although they were chatting and laughing, the atmosphere was extremely awkward.
Qiao Fei’s father coughed lightly…
