Chapter 380: Chapter 369: Qiao Jing is Pushed into the Water

By the poolside.

Qiao Jing glanced at the azure pool. The water was crystal clear and of excellent quality.

However, it was probably because everyone was here for the banquet that no one was swimming.

The guests around the pool were standing by the edge, engaging in conversations with one another.

Upon seeing the pool, Zhan Nanqing’s eyes lit up even brighter. She hurried to the edge of the pool, squatted down, reached out to touch the water, and then looked up in surprise.

“Mom, Qiao Jing, I suddenly really want to swim. Do you want to join me?”

She looked around at the other people and, realizing that no one else wanted to swim, stood up.

“Strange, why isn’t anyone swimming?”

Su Manhan poked Zhan Nanqing’s forehead with her finger.

“Are you here for the banquet or to swim? If you swim alone, wouldn’t that be awkward?”

Zhan Nanqing covered her forehead, sulkingly “oh”-ed in agreement, thinking that it indeed made sense. If everyone watched only her swim, she’d probably be extremely embarrassed.

Qiao Jing stood on the side, watching the interactions between the two, and couldn’t help but smile.

While the mother and daughter were still bantering, a richly dressed and equally dignified lady approached.

“Mrs. Su, I spotted you from afar, but I just got caught up chatting with someone. Now, I’ve finally got the chance to come over and find you.”

When Su Manhan saw the newcomer, she put away joking expression and revealed a proper smile.

“Good evening, Mrs. Liu.”

Mrs. Liu took a few looks at Qiao Jing, and remembering Su Manhan’s demeanor toward Qiao Jing, she asked indirectly.

“It seems you’re quite fond of your daughter-in-law.”

Su Manhan nodded, her gaze towards Qiao Jing filled with pride.

“She’s the only daughter-in-law I have, of course, I like her.”

Her daughter-in-law is skillful and beautiful, with a proper demeanor. If she doesn’t like Qiao Jing, who would she like?

Now that Mrs. Liu knew Su Manhan’s attitude, her gaze towards Qiao Jing also took on a pleasing intention.

“That makes sense. Mrs. Su, would you like to join me for a glass of wine? I heard that Elder Mr. Lou has prepared a batch of particularly rare red wines from abroad today. I’ve been wanting to try them and never expected to get the chance at the banquet.”
