Feng Chen didn’t make an immediate decision when he heard Jiang Hao’s invitation. Instead, he lowered his head and looked at Yu Qing Qian.
This inadvertent move surprised Jiang Hao and the others.
One must know that although Feng Chen entered the Academy later than them all, but he was superior to them in both talent and background. He usually took the main lead when going out to complete missions, and had always been decisive in doing things, never showing such a look of inquiry.
They knew that this also indirectly showed that Yu Qing Qian’s position in Feng Chen’s heart wasn’t low.
Xie Feng Zhi didn’t reveal it, but she was very uneasy inside, while Che Fei Fei showed a somewhat playful smile.
Yu Qing Qian considered that Feng Chen and these people often had to complete missions together, and it’d be unreasonable to refuse, so she said with a smile: “Then we’ll intrude on Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters.”
“Haha, it’s not an intrusion, just treat this meal as a welcoming meal.” Jiang Hao smiled and made a gesture of invitation, and the group entered the reserved private room.
‘A Ray of Sky’ was the best restaurant in Central City, and had its own special features. Be it the environment in the lobby, the pavilion, or the private rooms, each had its own uniqueness.
The private room that Yu Qing Qian and the others entered was spacious and had a table on the side with a guqin1 on it.
The room was connected to a small courtyard. In the courtyard, golden lotuses were in full bloom in a spring. The sun shone and scattered, and the golden lotus shone brightly, as the spring water flowed.
There were precious flowers planted all around, which were pleasing to the eye when matched with the entire private room. The environment was graceful and had a low-profile luxury.
Jiang Hao wasn’t born into one of the top Seven Great Clans, but he was also a legitimate son of a first-class clan in the Central Continent. The receptionist at the restaurant was a manager and his attitude was very polite.
“Dear guests, would you like to listen to the qin?” After the several people finished ordering, the manager asked with a smile.
There was a smile on Jiang Hao’s face, “I heard that Miss Zi Yan has composed a new piece, manager invite her over.”
“Yes, distinguished guests, please wait a moment, I will invite Miss Zi Yan to come over now.” The manager said respectfully and left.
After the several people sat down, two beautiful maids entered the private room, set out the tea sets, and one began brewing tea for them.
After a while, the aroma of tea overflowed.
Che Fei Fei took a sip of tea, looked at Yu Qing Qian and asked with a smile: “Junior Sister Yu came to the Central City this time to enter the Holy Academy to cultivate?”
“Mm, that’s indeed the plan.” Yu Qing Qian nodded with a smile.
“The Holy Academy is rich in resources and is indeed better than staying at the Royal Academy.” Che Fei Fei’s attitude was relatively friendly.
From a simple point of view, she wasn’t disgusted with Junior Sister Yu.
Although Yu Qing Qian’s family background wasn’t prominent, but she wasn’t born as an ordinary commoner either. Coupled with the devilish talent, as long as nothing unexpected occurred, she would definitely be extraordinary in the future.
Except for Xie Feng Zhi among the four, they all displayed kindness and friendliness.
Xie Feng Zhi held the teacup with a calm expression, her attitude was very cold towards Yu Qing Qian, and she never spoke to her.
Yu Qing Qian had long discovered Xie Feng Zhi’s attitude towards her. Her mental energy was very sharp, and she naturally knew that Xie Feng Zhi was hostile to her.
Coupled with the wistful and complicated expression that Xie Feng Zhi occasionally showed when looking at Feng Chen, what was there not to understand. This was another rotten peach blossom of Sick Beauty’s.
But Yu Qing Qian wouldn’t blame Feng Chen. If one liked the other person, then one must give them absolute trust.
Jiang Hao knew Xie Feng Zhi’s thoughts, but feelings weren’t something one could force to happen. In order to liven up the atmosphere, he asked with a smile: “Junior Sister Yu, have you been to the Underground Palace yet? There’s a treasure snatching event in the Underground Palace tonight. It’s very interesting, how about you two also go there for some fun?”
1琴 (qín) is often translated to zither (or the modern piano, depending on context and word pairings). More specifically, if it’s 钢琴 (gāng qín), then it’s definitely a piano. However, the word zither can also be used to translate the instrument 古筝 (gǔ zhēng), which is the 21 or 25-stringed zither. Meanwhile 古琴 (gǔ qín) is a 7-stringed instrument as seen in the picture above. A guqin has a more mellow sound compared to a guzheng.
