Chapter 231: Charity Dinner (2)

She couldn’t pretend to not know her niece in public. If she did, that would make it seem like she had a guilty conscience.

However, when He Yan arrived in front of Jian Yiling, she realized that Jian Yiling had come alone. She didn’t come with her parents or anyone else.

“Yiling, why did you come by yourself?” Jian Yummin asked her out of curiosity.

“I came to look around,” Jian Yiling replied.

Jian Yiling didn’t know why that person wanted to meet her today. Furthermore, she didn’t know why the meeting was on such an occasion as well.

She didn’t come here for any other reason. As such, she had decided to take a look around.

“Where is your mother? Why did she let you come by yourself?” Jian Yumin asked in a hurry. His burrows were furrowed. If someone didn’t know better, they’d assume that he was angry.

In Jian Yumin’s mind, Jian Yiling was still a child. She could get lost if she went out by herself.

“Yeah, that’s right. Where is Wen Nuan? Why is she not with you?” He Yan had the same question in her mind. However, her intentions were completely different from Jian Yumin’s.

“I’m by myself,” Jian Yiling replied.

“How can you go out by yourself? To such an occasion as well!” Jian Yumin cried out. It was dangerous for his sister to be alone. There were wolves and tigers [1]at such an event. As a result, it was unacceptable for Jian Yiling to be here by herself.

Fortunately, the host of the charity dinner did not hear this. If she heard this, goodness knows what she would say.

“Yeah, why would Wen Nuan let you come here by yourself?” He Yan asked deliberately. She saw that there were people nearby.

“I’m not a child,” Jian Yiling replied. However, her face and innocent eyes made her words incredibly unconvincing.

“What do you mean you’re not a child? You’re still a crybaby!” Jian Yumin said quickly. “Okay, for now, you should stay with me. After the event ends, I’ll take you home.”

At this moment, Ms. Qin had walked out. The people at the entrance had informed her that someone had arrived with a special invitation.

There were two kinds of invitations that Ms. Qin sent out. Most of them were ordinary invitations.

However, there were a few special invitations. The people at the entrance could differentiate between the two. As a result, as soon as they saw someone with a special invitation, they immediately informed Ms. Qin.

However, when she arrived at the door, she didn’t see the person that she expected to see.

Ms. Qin was a beautiful woman in her early forties. She wore a lilac trumpet gown that made her appear dignified and elegant. She had a unique air of classical beauty around her.

Although she felt the matter was quite strange, Ms. Qin still acted in good manners. She greeted the three people standing in front of her at the door with grace and ease.

“May I know your name?”

He Yan, Jian Yumin, and Jian Yiling appeared as though they were together. They had been chatting quite intimately before Ms. Qin had approached them. As a result, Ms. Qin assumed that they were the ones who had arrived with a special invitation.

“My husband’s surname is Jian. He’s the second son of the Jian family,” He Yan replied with a smile. She was incredibly happy.

She hadn’t expected for Ms. Qin to personally come out and greet her. It was rare for people to have such an honor.

“Oh, so it’s Ms. He Yan. You look incredibly young. Are the two people beside you your children?”

Ms. Qin instantly figured out He Yan’s identity. There was only one prominent Jian family in Hengyuan City.

However, what she didn’t understand was how He Yan had arrived with a special invitation.

She remembered that she did send an invitation to He Yan. However, that was just an ordinary invitation.
