Miss Qin's birthday banquet was rather unconventional. She wanted it to be lively, with guests arriving one after another. Besides the invited ones, some also brought their friends along. The young lady was naive and easy to speak to; she didn't mind these things.
The party was scheduled to start at dusk, but the venue was already bustling. The soothing piano music served as a backdrop while people chatted incessantly with acquaintances. As the young lady's appointed "responsible person," Qin Fang had to make an early appearance.
Fu Songzhi arrived a bit later, holding a glass of champagne. His first question was directed at Pei Yu, "Has Brother Pei not arrived yet?"
"Not yet," Qin Fang shook his phone, "soon."
Suddenly, everyone fell silent, puzzled. It was clear who the "Brother Pei" in their conversation referred to. Miss Qin indeed had significant influence; she could get Pei Yu to attend her private birthday banquet.
