Yaoyue Tower was extremely bustling because it was newly opened and had some connection with some powerful official in the court. Therefore, the people who came to attend the event almost packed the house. Jiang Ranli was lucky to have arrived early. If he had arrived at this time of meal, there would definitely be no place to stand.
Sitting comfortably in the box, listening to the occasional quarrels coming from outside, Jiang Ranli chuckled while holding a cup of honey tea. Although it was wrong to build one's happiness on the pain of others, it was forgivable to be unkind occasionally.
"Miss, listen to those people outside. After they have finished comparing their family backgrounds, now they are comparing who has more concubines. It's really hilarious." Listening to the noise outside, Qiu Die bent over with laughter.
Jiang Ranli had heard all that, and now her eyes curved, but with a hint of disdain. She felt that comparing family backgrounds was understandable. What was the point of comparing the number of concubines? It was just a matter of comparing who was more despicable, right?
Dongxue noticed that Jiang Ranli looked unhappy, so she said, "It's getting late now, I think the young master should be here by now."
Hearing Dongxue mention her elder brother, Jiang Ranli instantly became energetic and quickly asked Qiudie and Dongxue to call the waiter over. She wanted to order the food first, in case the business of Yaoyue Tower was too good and the kitchen would be unable to prepare the food.
When most of the dishes were served, the door of the private room was opened and Jiang Fan walked in with his characteristic rogue smile. When he saw Jiang Ranli, he said unhappily, "What girl is like you? Your brother runs around for you, but you don't even want to treat me to a meal, and you specially ask your brother to come and pay the bill."
Listening to Jiang Fan's 'complaint', Jiang Ranli raised her eyebrows slightly, with a cunning look on her fair face, "You are still blaming me, then look at whose brother is the same as you, what's wrong with treating his sister to a meal?"
Jiang Fan sat down next to Jiang Ranli and unceremoniously took the tea she had just brought and started drinking it. After finishing the tea, he wiped the water stains from the corners of his lips and then said, "Do you think these dishes are enough?"
Jiang Ranli originally thought that Jiang Fan would continue to "retort" to her, but she didn't expect him to say such words. She was a little stunned for a moment and looked at the dishes on the table.
"There are two of us eating. I ordered four dishes and one soup. One dish and one soup haven't come yet. Is that enough? Qiudie and Dongxue ordered some separately." Jiang Ranli looked at Jiang Fan suspiciously, wondering if he hadn't eaten all day.
Seeing Jiang Ranli's puzzled look, Jiang Fan listened to the footsteps outside and said at the right time, "Look, there are three of us now. Aren't four dishes and one soup a little too few?"
Jiang Ranli looked towards the door of the box following Jiang Fan's voice. As footsteps approached, the door opened, and then an elegant and handsome figure walked in.
Looking at the figure, Jiang Ranli was stunned for a moment, then stood up, his eyes full of joy, "Yanqing, when did you come to the capital?"
The person who came was Wu Yanqing. He left Beijing for business a few months ago. Jiang Ranli hadn't seen him for a long time. Naturally, he was happy to see his good friend now.
Wu Yanqing sat down on Jiang Ranli's left and said, "I just arrived today."
"You've been busy outside for several months. Why don't you take a good rest after arriving in Beijing? Did Afan go to your place to cause trouble?" Jiang Ranli said, looking at Jiang Fan.
Looking into Jiang Ranli's eyes, Jiang Fan slapped her on the head in annoyance, "Am I still your elder brother? Why do you push the blame on your elder brother for every bad thing? Afan rushed here without stopping because he was worried about you."
