When he saw this scene, Fang Jin's face couldn't help but reveal an expression of amazement. Qin Xiu, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but laugh and say, ”Today's banquet will be attended by many people. Some government officials from Jiangling City and some business celebrities will all be here.”
”So that's how it is.” Fang Jin nodded, indicating that he knew. However, when he looked at Qin Xiu, there was a trace of curiosity and doubt in his eyes.
To be able to hold such a big banquet, it was sufficient to show that the organizer's family background was extraordinary. Fang Jin thought over and over again. She didn't know which family in Jiangling City was surnamed Qin.
If it were any other place, Fang Jin would have told Qin Xiu about the doubts in her heart.
However, there were many people here, so Fang Jin naturally wouldn't recklessly ask questions. Thus, he could only suppress the doubts in his heart and linger around the hall with Qin Xiu.
Although Qin Xiu's father was one of the organizers of this banquet, Qin Xiu usually didn't participate in such banquets, so there weren't many people who knew her.
As for Fang Jin, a few months ago, he was still a diaosi through and through. He had never been to such a place before, so it was naturally impossible for anyone to know him.
At this moment, he and Qin Xiu were slowly walking in the great hall, feeling quite pleased with themselves. Whether it was Qin Xiu or Fang Jin, none of them actually liked this social occasion.
”Xiu!” While Fang Jin and Qin Xiuzi were walking in the hall, a man's voice suddenly came from behind them.
Hearing this voice, both Fang Jin and Qin Xiu couldn't help but stop and turn their heads. He immediately saw Qin Ming standing not far away.
Qin Ming's face also revealed a hint of astonishment. Never in his wildest dreams did he expect to encounter Fang Jin here.
Although Qin Ming admired Fang Jin's skills, only someone of status would be able to come to such a place. From Qin Ming's point of view, Fang Jin was just an ordinary university student. It was not enough for him to come here.
However, Qin Ming was also a smart person, he naturally wouldn't say those words out loud.
A smile appeared on Qin Ming's face. At this moment, he quickly walked in front of Qin Xiu and said, ”Xiao Xiu, I've been looking for you for a long time. When did you come?”
”Fang Jin and I just arrived not long ago.” Qin Xiu whispered.
Qin Ming smiled and nodded, as his gaze fell on Fang Jin. He extended his hand towards Fang Jin and said, ”Fang Jin, I didn't expect that we would meet again. When are we free to play? ”
”Let's talk about it when we have the chance.” Fang Jin smiled faintly and said softly.
Although Qin Ming was Qin Xiu's older brother, Fang Jin did not intend to have too much contact with him. Qin Ming and Qin Xiu were different. Although Qin Xiu's family background was astonishing, she was still a simple girl.
On the other hand, although Qin Ming had been acting extremely calm and indifferent the entire time, he would always reveal an expression of arrogance when he was not paying attention. This also showed that Qin Ming was a person with a strong sense of merit.
To such people, Fang Jin always kept her distance. If it were not for the fact that Qin Xiu was standing by his side today, Fang Jin probably would not have said anything to Qin Ming.
After saying that to Fang Jin, Qin Ming's gaze landed on his little sister again. He said, ”Hurry up and leave with me. Father has been waiting for you for a long time.” If you don't come, Father will be angry. ”
”This, alright.” Qin Xiu hesitated for a moment before she nodded. Evidently, Qin Xiu was still fearful of her father.
She turned her head to look at Fang Jin, softly saying, ”Fang Jin, why don't you come with me?”
As they heard this, both Qin Ming and Fang Jin couldn't help but be taken aback. Qin Ming could not help but guess what the relationship between Fang Jin and his sister was. It was obvious that Fang Jin was invited by her little sister. And now, her little sister, Qin Xiu, was bringing Fang Jin to her father. What exactly was the meaning behind this? Qin Ming couldn't help but ponder.
Fang Jin was also surprised by Qin Xiu's words. What was going on if they ran over after meeting each other? After all, he and Qin Xiu were only ordinary friends.
Thinking of this, Fang Jin couldn't help but laugh and shake his head, saying, ”Forget it, your family will meet, I won't go and join in on the fun.” ”I'll wait here for you. If you find me later, you can come straight over.”
Hearing Fang Jin's words, Qin Ming could not help but let out a sigh of relief in his heart, secretly thinking that Fang Jin was sensible. If Fang Jin really came begging for help, Qin Ming would definitely think of a way to get her to leave.
However, if that were the case, Fang Jin's face would be unsightly. This was not something that Qin Ming wanted to see. Now that Fang Jin had automatically chosen not to follow them, everyone was overjoyed.
In contrast to Qin Ming's heart, when he saw Fang Jin's refusal, Qin Xiu couldn't help but pucker her lips as a hint of disappointment flashed across her face.
The reason she brought Fang Jin here today and participated in this banquet was to let Fang Jin see her father.
Qin Xiu knew that there were definitely many people at her father's side. Qin Xiu hated those people, but with Fang Jin by her side, her father's attention would be attracted to Fang Jin, and those young people wouldn't harass her any further.
But now that Fang Jin had refused, Qin Xiu was naturally helpless in her heart.
She didn't open her mouth to plead any further, only lightly nodding her head at this moment. She said to Fang Jin, ”Okay, then you must wait here for me. When I'm done, I'll come over.”
