"Panyu." Jiang Ci suddenly spoke, bringing Jiang Panyu, who was immersed in her own emotions, back to her senses. She pursed her lips and said, "Brother..."
"Yeah." Jiang Ci didn't look at her, but just said: "Today is your birthday, be happy."
Jiang Panyu realized that her emotions had already surfaced, otherwise Jiang Ci would not have reminded her. She lowered her head and took a deep breath, and when she looked up again, she had put on a smile.
Jiang Rong's biggest purpose in coming back was to slap Jiang Peihong in the face. Now that the matter was done, she didn't want to stay in the banquet hall and be treated like a monkey. Although she knew that Qiao Yixuan had bad intentions, she still nodded and agreed to her proposal.
Just as Qiao Yixuan walked a few steps out, a servant suddenly came in hurriedly: "Miss! Miss, please wait!"
Jiang Rong turned around and saw a servant running towards him, panting, holding a box in his hand that looked very valuable.
"How can you be so flustered in front of the guests!" Jiang Peihong scolded.
The servant quickly apologized and added, "Sir, it's really the person who sent the gift...who is of high status. I dare not delay."
Jiang Peihong frowned: "Is your status noble? How noble is it?"
The servant swallowed and said, "Yes, he is the only son of Director Song of the National Security Bureau's Third Bureau, Young Master Song Yanzhen."
Everyone looked at each other.
Although many people know that Song Yanzhen is not favored at home, after all, he is Song Baihuan's only son, and the blood relationship is there, so basically no one will offend him openly. To the Jiang family, Song Yanzhen is truly of noble status.
In other words, for most people at today's banquet, the Song family is an unattainable existence.
"Young Master Song..." Jiang Peihong was stunned for a moment and asked, "What did Young Master Song send?"
The servant said, "It is this box. The visitor also asked me to bring a message to the young lady."
He cleared his throat and said solemnly, "He said he had something to do and couldn't come in person. He will apologize to the young lady another day and send her a small gift. I hope she likes it."
Those who had some dirty thoughts about ginger immediately stopped thinking about it.
It seems that Jiang Rong has a close relationship with the young master of the Song family, and they don't have the courage to snatch him from the Song family.
Under everyone's envious gazes, Jiang Rong took the box and curled his lips slightly.
Song Yan's words sounded nice. He couldn't come in person, so he sent a small gift. Jiang Rong could guess that the reason he couldn't come in person was probably because he was put in solitary confinement by his father.
Today was clearly Jiang Panyu's birthday party, but Jiang Rong stole the show. After Song Yanzhen brought a gift, there was a lot of discussion. Jiang Panyu whispered, "Xiao Rong, you and Young Master Song have a really good relationship. Are you in love?"
Jiang Rong: “…”
But don't let Song Yanzhen hear it. In Song Yanzhen's opinion, dating her would be like a horror movie.
Jiang Panyu smiled and said, "Look at this box. The things inside are very valuable. Can you open it and show it to us? The things Young Master Song gave me must be very precious."
Jiang Rong was a little confused.
Do these people really have such a thick filter for Song Yan?
According to her understanding of Song Yan, this person probably heard about the Jiang family's birthday party and was afraid that she would be wronged, so he sent her some things to show her support. The most valuable thing was probably this carved box. It wouldn't be surprising if there was nothing inside except ginger.
Therefore, she certainly wouldn't open it to show Jiang Panyu, saying, "It's nothing, just a small thing. I'm sure everyone has seen it."
"Okay." Jiang Panyu sighed softly: "Since you don't want to, then forget it."
Jiang Peihong said unhappily: "Look at your petty look. Xiaoyu just wanted to take a look, not steal it from you!"
At this time, another servant came in hurriedly, his expression even more frightened than the last one: "Sir!"
"..." Jiang Peihong scolded, "Can you please be a little more polite? Does Young Master Song have to send his gift in two installments?!"
"No, it's not Young Master Song!" The servant looked cautiously at the tall man in black beside him and said, "This... is from the merchant family."
There was a sudden thunderclap, and Jiang Peihong staggered. Fortunately, Jiang Panyu supported him and he did not fall to the ground.
The guests were also extremely shocked.
I'd heard a long time ago that the Jiang family and the Shang family were engaged, but the two families hadn't interacted at all in recent years. Everyone thought the engagement was off, but unexpectedly, on this special day... the Shang family actually sent a gift?!
Jiang Panyu was delighted. She softly asked the merchant, "Who sent this?"
"Of course it's the current head of the family, Mr. Shang." the man replied.
Jiang Panyu's heart beat rapidly, almost jumping out of his chest.
Shang Shaoheng...it's actually Shang Shaoheng!
Her fiancé, with whom she had been engaged but never met, sent her a gift on her nineteenth birthday!
Her joy almost overflowed, she reached out to take the box and slowly opened it——
There lay quietly a jade bracelet, purple all over, without a single flaw!
Under the light, the bracelet shone brightly and was extremely beautiful. Someone who knew jade immediately said, "Such a fine thing... I've only seen it once in my life!"
Even if you don't know much about jadeite, you know that this thing is definitely worth a lot of money. How could what Shang Shaoheng sent be a cheap item?
Jiang Panyu carefully took out the bracelet and murmured, "So beautiful..."
It would be hard for anyone who sees this bracelet not to like it.
Purple jade is rare to begin with, and jade of this quality is one in a million. The best part is that it has no other colors, it is all warm and translucent purple, and it looks like something that should be placed in a museum.
Qiao Yixuan was also very surprised that Shang Ye had come to give her a gift. She urged, "Since Mr. Shang has sent you a gift, Xiaoyu, try it on and see for yourself."
"Okay." Jiang Panyu smiled shyly, handed the bracelet to Qiao Yixiuan, and asked her to help her put it on.
The ring size was a little small for Jiang Panyu, and it took some effort to put it on. But that was normal. After all, the size of a jade bracelet was fixed, and it was considered suitable if it could fit.
The bracelet made her skin look incredibly white. Jiang Panyu couldn't let it go. She stroked the cool jade bracelet twice, then raised her eyes and asked the merchant, "Did Mr. Shang... bring any message?"
The man thought for a moment and said, "I do have something to say... Mr. Shang said, wait for your legs to be broken."
Jiang Rong, who was drinking water, said: "...cough cough cough cough!!"
Everyone was puzzled when they heard this and looked at Jiang Panyu. Jiang Panyu had no idea what this meant. She herself was also quite confused, but with so many people watching, she could only smile and say, "I understand. Thank you for making such a special trip. How about having a meal before leaving?"
"No need, Miss." The man said with a smile, "I'm still waiting to return and report to you."
Jiang Panyu's smile froze: "What... did you call me?"
