Chapter 895: An Online Friend

Nian Nian, let me introduce him to you. This is Mister Ji Nan. Hes here to attend your banquet.

He smiled slightly again and properly introduced Ji Nan to Qiao Nian. There was a faint sense of pride in the depths of his eyes. He then spoke to the young man. Mister Ji, this is my granddaughter, Qiao Nian. She was studying in Rao City and has just arrived today.

Jiang Zongnan was secretly sweating by the side.

He knew that the purpose of todays banquet was to introduce Qiao Nian to this circle and to tell other people in Beijing that there was one more person in their Jiang family.

It was just that Ji Nan could only be here on the Ye familys account. He might not even put the Jiang family in his eyes.

Since the Jiang family might not even be in Ji Nans eyes, what if the Old Master abruptly introduced the two of them to each other and Ji Nan didnt care about Qiao Nian? Wouldnt it be embarra.s.sing for her?

Worried, he asked himself if he should interrupt.

Unexpectedly, the young man glanced at Qiao Nian and smiled slightly. He spoke slowly and with a soothing tone. I know who she is. Were acquainted.

Old Master Jiang was speechless.

Jiang Zongnan couldnt speak.

Did he not come because of the Ye family?

Was he here because of Qiao Nian?

Jiang Zongnan reacted relatively quickly and subconsciously looked in the girls direction.

The girl pulled the brim of her cap down and did not speak.

It could be seen as her silently agreeing.

Was Ji Nan really here for Nian Nian?

He was in a daze and took a long time to recover.

Qiao Nian felt their gazes on her and explained dryly, Hes an online friend. I invited him.

He was an online friend?

Online?

If Jiang Zongnan didnt know the ident.i.ty of the man in front of him, he would have felt that the friend she met online was a normal person.

Young people were fas.h.i.+onable, and it was normal to make friends online.

However, Qiao Nian managed to make friends with a person at the top of the circles in Beijing online. He was unable to accept this fact for a long time.

Haha. Ji Nan smiled heartily. He wasnt angry at Qiao Nian for labeling him as just an online friend. He smiled and agreed. Thats true. S and I have been online friends for a long time. I only knew about this banquet when she called me. I then came uninvited. Please forgive me, Old Master Jiang.

He paused for a while. He appeared lighthearted, and his outstanding features couldnt be ignored. He said, I didnt prepare a proper gift as I came in a hurry. Ill have to make it up to you next time.

Old Man Jiang couldnt speak for a long time, not knowing how to react. He originally meant to introduce Qiao Nian to Ji Nan, but he never thought that it would be the other way around. Now, he felt like his granddaughter was introducing Ji Nan to him.

This situation was so sudden that he did really not know how to react.

Fortunately, Ji Nan didnt insist on an answer. He turned his head and said to the girl in a familiar tone, Im in a hurry, so I wont stay.

The relations.h.i.+p between him and Qiao Nian could be cla.s.sified as online friends since they generally only contacted each other online.

However, they werent simply online friends.

Ordinary online friends were not qualified enough for him to visit them personally.

However, this online friend was Qiao Nian, Ji Nan felt that he should give her the proper respect.

However, he did have an urgent matter at hand, so he couldnt stay for the banquet.

I have been waiting for you for a long time. I just wanted to come here to give you a gift and congratulate you. I will make it up to you next time.
