Chapter 491 - Chapter 491 Chapter 491_1

Chapter 491: Chapter 491_1 Chapter 491: Chapter 491_1 Glancing at the time, it was already half past three in the afternoon. The fashion-themed Dora Party would begin at five and attendees would start to trickle in. Qiao Xiaren calculated her timing precisely, not wishing to arrive late and leave a bad impression on others.

The party was set up at the upscale club under the Lan Group, in the luxurious VVVIP hall. By four-thirty, there were already hundreds of luxury cars parked at the entrance.

A red carpet extended from the spacious hall to the end, with several security guards standing solemnly on both sides to prevent any stampede incidents at this time.

Today can be considered a significant event that mobilized all sectors. After all, it was a dinner gathering political, commercial, military figures, as well as celebrities from the entertainment industry. Its predecessor was a banquet for charity and auctions, but now it has evolved into a gathering of the elites.

Of course, numerous interests were intertwined within this. Businessmen would use this opportunity to communicate with influential figures from the political scene, while celebrities would use this chance to expand their network and clear any obstacles in the entertainment industry.

Madam Qiao knew that Xiaren would be attending this banquet today. However, just thinking about the possibility of encountering Mrs. Lan at the event, Madam Qiao felt a lump in her throat.

Though they were mother and daughter, Madam Qiao did not want her granddaughter to have any contact with that kind of woman. The villa’s gate slowly opened and a black Ferrari drove in.

Blue skies, azure seas, and white clouds.

From the gate to the main villa, it took Qiao Xiaren about five minutes to drive.

It was rumored that this garden was constructed with an investment of several million by the old man as a gift for his soon-to-be-born granddaughter. Unfortunately, an accident occurred, and the construction was not completed.

Qiao Xiaren made a special trip back today, as her aunt and uncle had just returned from America. This would be their first meeting; they were supposed to meet on a flight back from Japan, but due to an emergency in their American company, they had to hastily fly to America.

Once they were finished, the couple hurried back to China.

“Miss.” The maids who were cleaning the swimming pool and the fountain stopped their work, placed their hands on their waists, and greeted her with restrained politeness.

Qiao Xiaren responded with a slight smile, took off the sunglasses on her nose, and asked: “Have my aunt and uncle arrived?”

“Yes.” The maid answered with a smile, “Miss, all four major families are inside today, and your aunt and uncle just arrived. They have been looking for you.”

“Then I will go in first.”

Qiao Xiaren nodded and smiled, heading straight for the villa.

There were faint sounds of conversation coming from the hall; Madam Qiao’s voice was particularly distinct, sounding very cheerful: “Old Gu, I just want to ask you if you acknowledge our little princess is pretty!”

“Really or not? Bragging, right?” Grandmother Gu was happy for Madam Qiao’s reunion with her granddaughter but could not help but want to make a few sarcastic comments.

“Of course, it’s true. Wait till our Ranran comes back, I guarantee she will dazzle you!”

No sooner had the words left her mouth than the butler’s joyful voice came from outside: “Madam, the young lady is back.”

“Really?”

Madam Qiao was overjoyed. She had just stood up when she saw Qiao Xiaren elegantly stepping into the hall. The entrance was laid with a layer of hard rice-white carpet that was sound-absorbing, and the magnificent bronzed door had elaborate luxury relief carvings. All eyes were instantly on her.

“Grandfather, grandmother, brother.”

Qiao Yi’an was sitting in the wheelchair; he looked much better. Qiao Xiaren wore a serene and graceful smile on her face, she squatted down: “Brother, you seem to be in a good spirits today.”
