1708 The Other Party Wants You to Attend
It was rare for her son to introduce someone to her so seriously.
After a moment of surprise, she put down her hand and smiled. She patted his shoulder and said elegantly, “I’m already curious because of what you said. You should bring her to see me someday.
“I also want to see what kind of person you want to acknowledge as your sister.”
Ji Nan saw that she seemed to be really interested in the SN, but he did not dare to promise. He only said, “I’ll ask her if she’s free later.”
In the Independent Continent, Xie Yun had always had people begging to see her. She had never waited for anyone. This was a novel experience.
She didn’t say anything and just nodded. “Okay, ask her.”

The next day.
Qiao Nian was woken up by a knock on the door.
She had always been hot-tempered when she woke up.
If it was in Beijing, she would definitely not open the door for anyone and continue to sleep.
However, this time, after she temporarily covered her head with the blanket and pretended to be dead, she remembered where she was and suppressed her anger. She lifted the blanket and got out of bed.
She picked up her coat from the bedside table and put it on, then got up and washed her face.
Cold water splashed onto her face, and Qiao Nian finally sobered up a little. However, her eyes were cold, and her face was expressionless. It was obvious that she had been forcefully woken up.
She walked over and opened the door.
Nie Mi and Master Cheng were outside.
Qiao Nian stepped aside to let them in.
“Master Cheng, let’s go in and talk,” Nie Mi said politely to the person beside him.
“Yeah.”
The two of them entered one after another.
Although Qiao Nian had just woken up and had yet to suppress her anger, she controlled her emotions and had no intention of throwing a tantrum at her elders.
She gave Master Cheng and Nie Mi a bottle of water each. Then, she found a corner and opened a bottle for herself. She raised her head and drank half of it. Then, she looked up at them and asked in a hoarse voice, “What’s the matter?”
Nie Mi looked at her and knew that she had been woken up by them. He covered his mouth with his fist and coughed to hide his embarrassment. Then, he glanced at Master Cheng and asked, “Master Cheng, do you want me to do it?”
Master Cheng’s aura was transcendent as he nodded with no objections. “Okay, go ahead.”
Nie Mi retracted his gaze and turned to look in Qiao Nian’s direction. He said bluntly, “It’s like this. We received an invitation this morning. The other party asked you to attend. We wanted to discuss it with you, so we came to look for you.”
Qiao Nian raised her eyebrows.
There was some surprise in her eyes.
Who asked her to attend what?
If Nie Mi didn’t care about this matter, he wouldn’t have been in such a hurry to chase her out of her bed so early in the morning. He didn’t hide anything and said directly, “It’s the Ji family.”
Qiao Nian paused in her actions, her voice slightly hoarse. “The Ji family?”
“You’ve heard of them?” Nie Mi knew from her reaction that she must have heard of the Ji family. He was a little surprised, but he reacted quickly and continued, “It’s good that you’ve heard of the Ji family. I don’t have to introduce their background to you anymore.
“The Ji family’s banquet is different from the banquet we attended yesterday. They usually don’t hold banquets at this juncture. They only hold banquets and other gatherings once a year. They also have very high requirements for the guests. Ordinary people can’t attend.”
Ordinary people really could not attend them.
Nie Mi was very surprised this time!
