Chapter 2612 Sister Nian: A Little Toy
Gu San silently went to the kitchen and took out a pair of scissors. He pointed at the cardboard box and asked Qiao Nian, "Miss Qiao, do you want to open this?"
Qiao Nian saw the scissors. She had wanted to open them, but after thinking about it, she felt that it would be too troublesome to find new packaging.
She rejected Gu San's good intentions. "There's no need for that for now."
"Oh, okay." Gu San looked at the cardboard box with a disappointed expression. It was obvious that he wanted to know what was in the box.
Ye w.a.n.gchuan could tell that he was disappointed. He raised his eyebrows and handed over the water bottle. Then, he asked the girl, "What's inside?"
Qiao Nian happened to be thirsty, so she took a sip. Then, she lowered her eyes, placed the bottle on the table, and casually said, "A gift."
"Mm?" Ye w.a.n.gchuan was slightly stunned.
Qiao Nian glanced at him with her dark eyes, as if realizing how silly her answer was.
She ma.s.saged her temples and said, "It's just an aircraft model. Just treat it as a miniature toy."
Ye w.a.n.gchuan estimated the height and width of the paper box. He patted it and turned to ask her, "Falcon HTV-2?"
Gu San finally found something he could talk about. He looked at the girl in surprise and asked for confirmation, "The most cutting-edge Falcon Aircraft model?"
Qiao Nian nodded. "It's just a shrunken toy."
Gu San was envious and looked at her eagerly.
Qiao Nian's head hurt. She lowered her eyes to hide her gloom and said, "There's only one."
There was actually only one!
Gu San gave up.
He knew that Qiao Nian was not petty. If there were more, she would definitely give him one.
However, since Qiao Nian said there was only one, then there was probably only one.
Ye w.a.n.gchuan did not say anything else after this.
He was clear of the situation.
Qiao Nian was giving Ji Lingfeng a huge present this time.
However, thinking of what Ji Lingfeng had done for the girl in Country M, he felt that Qiao Nian's gift was suitable.

The next day.
The Intercontinental Hotel's first-floor lobby was booked by the Ji family.
Other than the hotel guests, no one else was allowed to enter the lobby.
Moreover, even hotel guests could only move around in the corners of the hall. Special security guards separated them from the guests coming for the birthday party. It was almost impossible for unidentified people to sneak into the banquet.
This time, the security standards were pretty high. It could be seen how important the guests invited by the Ji family were.
Basically, families above the middle cla.s.s in the independent continent had received invitations. Of course, there was also a limit to the number of people invited guests could bring along. It could not exceed two people.
The people from the Chamber of Commerce Alliance and other a.s.sociations had arrived early.
Some unimportant people from the Ji family also came early.
Ji Hongyuan, who lost his position as the leader of the Punishment Hall and had his status in the Ji family plummet, also arrived early.
Many people had not arrived yet.
He saw Ji Lingfeng's right-hand man, He Lin, waiting for someone outside; he handed all the greetings to his subordinates.
Ji Hongyuan frowned suspiciously.
He Lin had always been smart.
On such an occasion, instead of greeting the guests, he was waiting for someone at the door?
Who was so important?
Such that He Lin did not even care about the other guests.
