Nan Mufeng stopped and looked at Qiao Jiaying with unfamiliar eyes, "Do you know me?"
"Uh..." Qiao Jiaying was a little embarrassed, but quickly smiled and said, "I'm Qiao Jiaying. I often heard Grandpa Nan mention you and I've seen your picture."
"The Qiao Family?" Nan Mufeng frowned slightly, "The one associated with the Jian Corporation?"
A flush of embarrassment appeared on Qiao Jiaying's face.
In Jiangcheng, everyone who saw her would ask: 'The Qiao Family from Jian Corporation?' Because her dad, Qiao Yonghui, was a son-in-law who had married into her mother's family!
For ten years, she had finally overshadowed Jian Xi and become the young mistress of Jian Corporation. But the shadow of the Jian Family always lingered. Now that Jian Xi had returned, her status as the young mistress was in jeopardy again.
"Yes..." Qiao Jiaying said with an awkward smile, "We even played together when we were kids, don't you remember?"
"Sorry, I don't."
"No problem, getting to know each other again now is also fine." Qiao Jiaying quickly added, "Brother Mufeng, I'm here to pick up my sister. She's also returning to the country today, rushing back for the engagement ceremony tomorrow..."
"Then you can wait all you want."
Without waiting for Qiao Jiaying to finish her words, Nan Mufeng turned and walked away.
Qiao Jiaying quickly stepped in front of him, blocking his path: "Brother Mufeng..."
The admiration in her eyes couldn't be more obvious.
The people around Nan Mufeng tactfully stepped back, but unfortunately, Nan Mufeng didn't get it: "Is there something else?"
"Brother Mufeng, my sister has already left. I also didn't see anyone from the Nan Family here to pick you up, why not go with us?"
"No need."
After Nan Mufeng left, Qiao Jiaying dazedly watched his retreating figure, unable to regain her composure for a long time.
Ah! How wonderful it would have been if it were she who was getting engaged to Nan Mufeng tomorrow.
This man wasn't just handsome, he also had an irresistible aura, making her heart melt in an instant.
"Yingying." Song Jia approached and observed her daughter acting lovesick, contemplating.
"Mom, when will we be able to escape from the shadow of Jian Corporation?" Qiao Jiaying pouted, dissatisfied, "It's always 'The Qiao Family from Jian Corporation' that they mention, which sounds like a stab to the heart."
"One day we will, don't worry!"
——————
Outside the airport, a black Bentley glided up, perfectly blocking the hurried Nan Mufeng.
The car window rolled down, and a young, sunny face appeared: "Brother Nan, get in!"
"How come you're here?"
Upon seeing his good friend Rui Kun, Nan Mufeng's cold face finally showed a hint of a smile.
"To pick you up!" Rui Kun chuckled, "Grandpa was worried you'd run away from the wedding, so he specially ordered me to come and wait."
"The flight was delayed..."
"Exactly! I've been waiting for you for over an hour, man, you owe me."
Rui Kun stretched out his hand to open the passenger-side door.
Nan Mufeng got into the car and leisurely buckled his seatbelt, asking, "Owe you what?"
"My precious time!"
"Understood." Nan Mufeng nodded, took out his phone, and immediately sent Rui Kun a red packet of 199 yuan.
"199? What's that supposed to mean?" Rui Kun was totally baffled.
Nan Mufeng kept a straight face, "Compensation."
"Compensation?"
"To buy Viagra, so you last a long, long time."
The car fell silent for three seconds. Then Rui Kun exploded, "Go to hell! Don't ruin my reputation. I don't need Viagra for my physique!"
"Then give me the red packet back."
"..."
Rui Kun's lips twitched.
"A red packet once sent, like water poured out, can't be taken back!"
"Hmm, last a long, long time." Nan Mufeng added.
Rui Kun was seething with rage, and if it weren't for driving, he would have loved to fight it out with him!
His eyes darted around craftily, and with a sly smirk, he said, "Young Master Nan, rest assured, I will make good use of this red packet."
