As Xu Huanyan dawdled over, Jiang Yun glanced behind her, looked at a waiter, and gave him a look. The waiter nodded slightly and followed Xu Huanyan.

Over here, Xu Da Shao and Xu Er Shao left one after the other, while Xu Bai and Xu Huan Yan brushed past each other.

Xu Huanyan approached Su Ning and Gu Jingchen, and she saw Gu Jingchen pushing Su Ning to a corner where there were few people.

Xu Huanyan breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that not many people would see her being rejected by Gu Jingchen.

Hello!

Xu Huanyan felt awkward standing in front of Su Ning and Gu Jingchen.

Su Ning gave her a smile, but Gu Jingchen's expression remained calm and expressionless.

It was obvious that her appearance displeased Gu Jingchen.

I'd like to raise a toast to you all!

The waiter came over, and Xu Huanyan took two glasses of red wine from the plate he was carrying.

The red wine was handed over, and she turned it around and gave it to Su Ning.

Gu Jingchen might not accept her offer, but Su Ning would.

Just like Xu Huan had thought, Su Ning smiled, accepted the bottle, and drank it too.

Following Jiang Yun's advice, Xu Huanyan came over to toast Gu Jingchen, which could be considered a success. Xu Huanyan breathed a sigh of relief. As she turned to leave, her phone rang in her handbag. She took it out, saw the message, and looked at Jiang Yun, who was talking to Xu Bai, with a puzzled expression.

Jiang Yun noticed her looking over and gave her a cold look, signaling Xu Huanyan to obey her.

Xu Huanyan hesitated for a moment, then turned to look at Su Ning, who was chatting happily with Gu Jingchen. She bit her lower lip and had no choice but to go back.

"Su Ning, can I talk to you alone?"

"no!"

Before Su Ning could agree, Gu Jingchen refused first.

He was worried because it was Jiang's territory and Xu Huanyan was Jiang Yun's daughter.

Xu Huanyan lowered her head. She also felt that Su Ning and the others would not agree to chat with her alone. Then she thought of Jiang Yun's instructions and didn't know what to do.

"Can!"

Seeing the conflict on Xu Huanyan's face, Su Ning responded.

"Ningning!"

"I know what I'm doing!"

Su Ning gave Gu Jingchen a smile, indicating that he didn't need to worry.

"Huanyan wouldn't hurt me."

She said it with certainty.

Without Jiang Yun's explanation, Xu Huanyan was unwilling to talk to Su Ning.

Her and Su Ning's status and position were reversed in a short period of time.

She used to be the eldest daughter of the Xu family; now, she is Su Ning.

The banquet is too noisy; it's unlikely we'll be able to have a quiet chat.

Xu Huanyan led Su Ning away from here, and the two of them went to the house behind.

Unlike the Xu family, the Jiang family preferred to enjoy a life of luxury, and the layout of their residence exuded an air of wealth and extravagance.

They went to the quiet house, where there was no one else but Su Ning, Xu Huanyan, and Ya Ya.

Without any opening remarks, Su Ning first asked Xu Huanyan, "Did your mother send you to talk to me?"

Xu Huanyan was taken aback, looking at Su Ning's smile, not understanding how she had guessed it.

"What does she want from me bringing you here?"

Su Ning asked again.

Throughout the entire banquet, among the Jiang family members, only Xu Huanyan evoked some goodwill from Su Ning.

"She wants me to pursue Mr. Gu!"

Xu Huanyan lowered her head and said softly.

Jiang Yun asked her to come over and offer a toast, and also asked her to talk to Su Ning about Gu Jingchen. She was afraid that Jiang Yun would be angry, so she couldn't refuse.

"Do you want to think about it yourself?"

Su Ning thought Xu Huanyan was a kind-hearted person, but Xu Huanyan cared too much about Jiang Yun.

She did whatever Jiang Yun said, never having her own ideas.

This is not a good thing for Xu Huanyan; on the contrary, it's terrible.
