Chapter 161 Celebrating Birthday
Chapter 161 Celebrating Birthday
On the other side of the banquet, Grandpa Jiang, Grandma Jiang, and Jiang Linkai also turned their attention to the rest corner.
Grandma Jiang exclaimed in amazement, "I've known for a long time that Xiao Qiao is something special, but I never imagined she would be so extraordinary that even the leader would take time out of his busy schedule to attend her birthday party."
Grandpa Jiang nodded in agreement, his eyes filled with thought: "It seems that Xiao Qiao's identity is much more complicated than we previously suspected."
As he spoke, he looked at Jiang Linkai with a serious expression: "Lin Kai, you must treat Nan Qiao more carefully from now on. Don't slack off in the slightest."
Jiang Linkai nodded quickly, but his gaze on Nan Qiao became more and more passionate.
Jiang Linkai's eyes inadvertently noticed Fang Xuyao. He walked over slowly with a hint of envy on his face.
He said, "I didn't expect that classmate Nan Qiao actually knew General Wang. General Wang is a great hero with many achievements. It's really enviable that Nan Qiao can have such a friendship with him."
Fang Xuyao frowned slightly, a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.
He stared at Jiang Linkai and asked in a strange tone, "Are you just envious? No other feelings?"
It seems that Jiang Linkai is interested in Nan Qiao, but he didn't notice the special emotion in General Wang's eyes when he looked at Nan Qiao?
Jiang Linkai shook his head in bewilderment and asked in equal surprise, "What do you feel? I don't feel anything else."
"I just think it's great to be so familiar with General Wang. I wish I had such an opportunity."
Fang Xuyao couldn't help but click his tongue and thought to himself: Is this guy really stupid, or does he just not care at all?
After thinking about it, Fang Xuyao's expression became stern, and he said bluntly: "Qiao Qiao's affairs don't require you to worry about them, you'd better not meddle in other people's business."
Jiang Linkai was displeased when he heard this. He snorted coldly, "Nan Qiao's identity is destined to be extraordinary. Look at yourself, what abilities do you have?"
"You are of no help to Nan Qiao. I think you are the one who should consciously stay away from her."
Fang Xuyao was stunned at first, then he laughed out of anger. He narrowed his eyes slightly, with a glint of anger in them, and said word by word: "Whether I can help or not is not your turn to tell me what to do."
"Why, just because your family is in politics, you look down on us businessmen? Is being in politics so great? What's there to be proud of?"
When Jiang Linkai heard this, he took a deep breath and tried hard to suppress the anger in his heart.
He disdained to quarrel with Fang Xuyao here. Not only would it be too ungraceful, but it would also bring shame to the Jiang family in front of the leaders.
He responded coldly, "Then we'll wait and see. In the days ahead, will I be able to provide more help to Nan Qiao, or will you, the son of a businessman, be able to help her?"
"I believe that time will tell."
Fang Xuyao raised the corners of his mouth slightly, raised his eyebrows uninhibitedly, and his eyes were full of provocation: "Just watch, I want to see what tricks you can come up with."
"Don't cry if you lose then."
……
It was almost time. Lin Yue came to the rest corner and whispered, "Dear leaders, it's almost time to cut the cake."
Everyone gathered around the exquisite cake. The cake Zhao Gang prepared for Nan Qiao was like a work of art, with delicate cream and embellished with juicy fruits.
The cake has layer after layer, like a princess's cake skirt, and on the top of the cake, there is a little princess dancing.
Zhao Gang carefully inserted the colorful candles on the cake, and each candle seemed to carry his best wishes for Nan Qiao.
The lights went out and darkness instantly enveloped the place, with only the flickering candlelight shining.
Nan Qiao slowly closed her eyes, clasped her hands together, and made a silent wish.
She hopes that her motherland will always be prosperous and peaceful; she hopes that she will live up to the trust placed in her on the road ahead; and she hopes that those she loves and those who love her will be safe and happy.
Amidst everyone's cheerful birthday song, she gently blew out the birthday candles.
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining 50 points of Zhao Gang's love value, and the total love value is 260 points. Please keep up the good work, host."
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining 50 points of Wang Qi's love value, and the total love value is 310 points. Please keep up the good work, host."
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining 50 points of love from Fang Xuyao, bringing the total love to 310 points. Please keep up the good work, host."
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining 30 points of love from Lin Yue, bringing the total love to 340 points. Please keep up the good work, host."
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining 30 points of love from Jiang Linkai, bringing the total love to 370 points. Please keep up the good work, host."
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining 30 points of love from Wang Xiaoxuan, bringing the total love to 400 points. Please keep up the good work, host."
……
A series of system prompts sounded in my ears, and the protection value instantly reached 560 points.
Nan Qiao's eyes were filled with tears. This was the first time she had held such a grand birthday party.
Everyone really likes her and hopes she lives a good life.
With them, no matter how unfortunate her childhood was, it was complete.
The moment the lights came back on, Fang Xuyao suddenly opened the firework tube as if he had been prepared.
With a "bang", colorful confetti fluttered down like gorgeous flower rain. The atmosphere on the scene suddenly became lively and laughter echoed in every corner.
Nan Qiao picked up the knife, gently cut the cake, and distributed pieces to everyone present.
Her movements were graceful and smooth, and there was always a sweet smile on her face.
After the cake was divided, everyone was enjoying their cake in a warm and joyful atmosphere.
Fang Xuyao raised a wicked smile and suddenly stretched out his finger to dip some cream, then smeared it on Nan Qiao's rosy cheek in the blink of an eye.
After succeeding, he ran away without stopping.
"What are you doing, Fang Xuyao!" Nan Qiao was stunned at first, then frowned immediately after reacting, and then chased after Fang Xuyao with a piece of cake.
The two chased each other around the dessert table, laughter and shouts intertwined.
Fang Xuyao was very agile and Nan Qiao couldn't catch up with him at all, which made her face puffed up with anger.
Suddenly, Nan Qiao caught a glimpse of Wang Xiaoxuan standing aside, and an idea came to his mind. He rushed over and smeared the cream in his hand on Wang Xiaoxuan's nose.
Wang Xiaoxuan was both angry and amused, and shouted, "Alright, Qiao Qiao, since you can't mess with Fang Xuyao, you're going to mess with me, right? You're dead."
As he said this, he pretended to fight back and chased after him with the cake plate in his hand.
Wang Qi watched these young people playing quietly from the side, his eyes full of smiles, and he exhaled lightly.
I sighed in my heart: "Great, it's great to be young."
In those eyes, there is envy for youthful vitality, as well as cherishment for this beautiful picture.
