Chapter 456: Huading Revolving Restaurant
Xia Qinghuan quickly hid the exquisite gift box in her hand behind her back and said proudly, “No, I’ll give it to you later!”
In her eyes, there had to be a ceremony when giving gifts on one’s birthday. How could she give it out on the streets so casually?
Jian Ai smiled and called for them to enter first.
Xia Qinghuan and Yan Tian naturally saw Si Yuehan as well. Over the past two days, Si Yuehan had been going to school with Jian Ai every day. The two of them also knew that they had become friends now, but Jian Ai did not say that Si Yuehan would come to this birthday party.
Moreover, he was a strange person. Previously, she took the initiative to greet him, but did not receive a response. This time, she did not have the intention of greeting him.
The boys walked in front while Xia Qinghuan held Jian Ai’s arm from behind. She lowered her voice and asked, “Why is he here too?”
Jian Ai looked at Si Yuehan’s back and whispered, “I invited him. He’s my friend now.”
Xia Qinghuan had a meaningful look on her face, and her gossipy heart was about to burn again. However, thinking that it was Jian Ai’s birthday today, she suppressed it and didn’t pursue the matter.
The birthday girl had all the rights. Even if Jian Ai invited Jian Yiyi, she wouldn’t say anything!
Of course, Xia Qinghuan knew that this was impossible.
The elevator reached the thirty-second floor, the top floor. As soon as the elevator door opened, a server in charge of receiving guests at the elevator door came forward.
“Welcome to Huading Revolving Restaurant. Do you have a reservation?”
Jian Ai nodded. “Yes, Jian Ai!”
The server said, “Alright, please follow me!”
The revolving restaurant had floor-to-ceiling windows at a 360-degree angle. One could see the bustling cityscape of Baiyun City at a glance.
Every ninety minutes, the restaurant would rotate once. It was probably the time for a proper meal. Because it was slow, if the angle of the scenery outside the window was not changing, one would not feel the restaurant rotating.
The server confirmed Jian Ai’s reservation information at the front desk and led them to a long table with a good view.
This was Jian Ai’s first time here, and she was quite satisfied with the high-end and tidy dining environment.
As soon as everyone sat down, Guan Tao arrived. To their surprise, she didn’t come alone but appeared with Gao Yang.
Without waiting for them to reveal their gossipy radar, Guan Tao rushed to explain, “I bumped into Gao Yang downstairs. Otherwise, I wouldn’t know which floor this restaurant was on.”
Gao Yang didn’t say a word. He wasn’t someone who liked to explain things like this. Even if others misunderstood, he couldn’t be bothered to say anything.
Guan Tao was holding an enormous box. She had prepared a gift for Jian Ai.
The box attracted Xia Qinghuan’s gaze at a glance. She couldn’t help but ask, “Oh my, Guan Tao, your gift is too big. Is there a person inside?”
Yan Tian smiled and said, “Maybe when we open it, Lin Yi will jump out from inside!”
Everyone laughed when they heard this, but Guan Tao couldn’t help but feel embarrassed. She stuffed the gift under the chair and didn’t give it to Jian Ai immediately.
“Can we serve the dishes now?” The server walked over and asked Jian Ai.
Jian Ai had already ordered the dishes when she made the reservation. When she heard this, she looked at the time. It was just past noon.
However, Lin Yi had not arrived yet. As such, she said, “Let’s open the wine bottles first. We still have people who haven’t arrived yet. We’ll serve the dishes later.”
The server nodded and retreated.
When Yan Tian heard this, he couldn’t help but ask Jian Ai, “You still want to drink?”
Jian Ai raised her eyebrows. “Of course. It’s my birthday. I have to drink a little!”
