"Yes. We've been good friends since we knew each other in high school." Tang Xin didn't know why Jiang Qi suddenly asked this.

"Really?" Jiang Qi looked in their direction thoughtfully.

"What's wrong?" Tang Xin was a little curious about what Jiang Qi was thinking. Why did she ask that? The two had always been on good terms since they met, anyway, since she knew them.

"Nothing. I just don't quite understand why they didn't come to me first." Jiang Qi was a little confused, recalling the plot in her mind.

"What's so hard to understand? You just made them so embarrassed, it's normal for them to want to slap you in the face, right?" Tang Xin said jokingly.

"Is that so?" Jiang Qi replied perfunctorily. She was still thinking back to the description of the original plot.

"But this Miss Su is really impatient. She actually dared to slap you in the face like that. I just wonder if those people have the courage to cooperate with her and drink that glass of wine as a matter of course." Tang Xin's temperament of watching the fun and not minding the trouble came up again.

"Don't they know that the person here is not me, but my uncle?" Jiang Qi asked this question very seriously.

"Luo Keke and you, your two families have known each other for a long time. Her father and your mother are childhood friends. She must know about this relationship." Tang Xin laughed. Is Jiang Qi really the real person this time? Why does she seem a little silly?

"Yes, she knows." Jiang Qi, who had been looking at Luo Keke, suddenly realized and figured it out instantly. She couldn't help but smile.

"By the way, I'm quite curious. Your family and Rococo's are old friends, and you've known each other since childhood. Why aren't you on good terms with her?"

Jiang Qi sighed and said calmly, "I can't help it. My dad never lets me play with idiots. Especially idiots who think they are smart."

"Heh." Tang Xin understood and smiled knowingly. She was not a fool, so Jiang Qi would get along with her. The two of them always had a tacit understanding. Although they hadn't seen each other for two years, she didn't know whether it was because Jiang Qi had all the memories and emotions of the original owner, or because their auras were very similar, but this feeling didn't diminish at all.

So some things don't need to be explained too clearly, those who understand will naturally understand. So Tang Xin didn't continue this topic, picked up the teacup, drank a sip of tea and changed the topic.

"By the way, is Mr. Bai okay? Do you want to take a look?"

"No need, someone has already gone to see it."

"So, you knew they had something going on and said that on purpose." Although Tang Xin asked a question, her tone was affirmative. She knew Jiang Qi as well as Bai Qianyu and Gu Jingcheng. If they were compared, she was the one who knew the person in front of her best.

She knew that Jiang Qi was afraid of trouble and would never do anything extra, so she was also very curious why Jiang Qi suddenly said that just now. Even if she wanted to kill Ming Luosheng, there was no need. Ming Yu's attitude also showed that there was no need to worry too much about this matter. Just the two of them were enough to cause trouble. There must be other reasons.

Jiang Qi did it on purpose. She had to get Bai Qianyu out anyway, and if He Sangran went out, she could hold him back, which was just the right way to vent her anger. But she didn't expect He Sangran to throw wine at her. But she couldn't tell Tang Xin directly.

So he compromised and said, "I know they are having an affair. But it is true that he is my intended marriage partner."

"Have you really thought it through?!" Tang Xin felt a little unbelievable. Because Jiang Qi had told her that love was troublesome and she hated it, so she definitely didn't want to get married because she loved Bai Qianyu. What was the point of that?

"Well, I'm at the age to get married. I won't get married anyway. So there's no need for an arranged marriage for me. Instead of waiting for my family to arrange it, I might as well take the initiative and find someone suitable and satisfying. Bai Qianyu is very suitable for me. There is no one more suitable for me right now." Jiang Qi explained slowly in a steady tone.

How can I describe Jiang Qi? She has a relatively good attitude towards adapting to the environment. Since she has come to this world with this identity, she is this person, and everything in the past has nothing to do with her anymore. After completing the main storyline, if she wants to live well with this identity, she must take on the responsibilities and obligations that she has to bear for this person.

"What about Master Gu? You don't want it anymore?" Tang Xin said this as a matter of course, not feeling that there was anything wrong with it.

Jiang Qi couldn't help laughing after hearing this, and subconsciously glanced in Su Muqing's direction. She couldn't help but feel a little sad for her, and it was no wonder she thought so. It seemed that everyone thought her marriage with Gu Jingcheng was just a joke, and now that Jiang Qi was back, she had to wisely get out of the way.

"He's already married. And I remember I told you before that he and I are not suitable. It wasn't suitable before, and it's even less suitable now." Jiang Qi's tone was still gentle and calm without any ups and downs.

"Alas." Tang Xin looked in the direction of Gu Jingcheng and couldn't help but sigh. "Sometimes I really doubt whether you have any feelings at all. We've been childhood sweethearts for eighteen years. Eighteen years! And you're not moved at all."

Jiang Qi smiled and didn't answer.

"Then, is Bai Qianyu willing?" Tang Xin asked tentatively.

"He likes me." Jiang Qi said with certainty.

"I know. But that's what he said before. Now, have you asked him? You haven't seen each other for two years." Tang Xin was a little worried. He Sangran and Bai Qianyu must have something going on, and it shouldn't be simple. There are probably a lot of things to talk about. What if Jiang Qi gets hurt?

Jiang Qi seemed to think seriously for a moment: "Well...then I'll ask him?"

Tang Xin was helpless. It turned out that this young lady had never considered the thoughts and feelings of the other party?

Tang Xin was still trying to decide how to discuss this way of doing things with this young lady, but Jiang Qi suddenly asked her, "Do you want to have a fight?"

"Ah?" Tang Xin didn't follow Jiang Qi's thoughts.

But Jiang Qi didn't explain, nor did he give her time to respond, but continued to ask. "Let me ask you, if I'm going to quarrel with Su Muqing or even fight with her later, will you help me?"

"Ha." Tang Xin's brain was completely frozen and he replied stupidly with one word.

Su Muqing was very upset now, and all she could think about was the red mark on Gu Jingcheng's neck that she had accidentally seen earlier, which was deliberately covered by Gu Jingcheng's collar. And the unique fragrance that she could faintly smell when she got close to him, all belonged to that person. Gu Jingcheng didn't wear any perfume, so it was easy for him to be stained with other smells.

So now Su Muqing knew very well who he was with just now? How did the red mark on his neck come from? She was very confused now, but she had to go to toast. Grandma, mother, father, uncle and aunt were talking to other people at other tables. Fortunately, Keke was there to take care of her.

When she went to the first table, her mind was still in a mess. Unable to calm down, she just greeted them and said a few words. The faces of those old ladies were obviously not very good. Fortunately, Rococo was there to smooth things over.

After leaving, Luo Keke asked worriedly, "Qingqing, are you okay?"

Su Muqing couldn't talk about this now, so he just smiled and shook his head at her, saying comfortingly: "I'm fine. Maybe I drank a little too much just now, and the alcohol took effect. I'll be fine in a while."

"Why don't you go sit at my table and take a rest before you toast." Luo Keke looked at her with concern.

"It's okay. I feel much better now." Su Muqing tried to calm himself down. He shook his head slightly. He ignored the confusion in his head and took a deep breath to cheer himself up. Then he said to Luo Keke, "Let's go."

Seeing that he couldn't persuade her, Luo Keke said, "Then drink less and stay at the back while I go forward."

"Okay~." Su Muqing smiled sincerely and agreed. Rococo was really her best friend. Whenever she was sad, Rococo could always bring comfort to her heart.

Because the seats at the banquet were arranged according to seniority, they came one table at a time. But for some reason, it seemed that the people at each table looked at them with a bad look. Su Muqing noticed that they seemed to pretend not to notice anything, so she looked in Jiang Qi's direction.

Until they came to Madam Jing's table. Madam Jing was Jing Hui's mother and she had watched Rococo grow up. Although she and Jing Hui were unable to get married because of that incident, she and Madam Jing were still very close.

As soon as she arrived, Rococo called out enthusiastically, "Mom Jing!" and hugged Mrs. Jing.

Madam Jing was an elegant woman. She raised her hand and patted Rococo gently, saying in a gentle tone, "Okay, okay."

Then Rococo let her go and stood up straight. Madam Jing reached out and straightened her clothes naturally. She warned her in an elder's tone: "You are so old, but you are still so impatient."

Rococo smiled embarrassedly.

The ladies nearby laughed and said, "Madam Jing and Miss Luo, you two have such a good relationship. If you don't know, you would think you are mother and daughter."

Mrs. Jing smiled and didn't reply.

No one spoke for a moment, and Su Muqing greeted them, "Hello, Madam Jing." Then he said to the ladies next to him, "Hello, ladies."

The ladies next to her just smiled at her, said hello and didn't say anything else.

Madam Jing smiled and said gently, "Qingqing is here." Su Muqing was good friends with Luo Keke. They had met several times and Madam Jing gave people a very gentle impression.

Su Muqing smiled and said sincerely: "I'm here to toast you."

Madam Jing stood up, reached out and took Su Muqing's hand, patted it gently and said softly: "Don't worry, we old people don't have to worry yet. Have you taken care of your little friends?"

"I came to my elders first. My little friend hasn't gone yet. I'll go there later." Su Muqing didn't understand and could only answer accordingly.

"It's okay, go greet your little friend first. We old people talk very slowly. You can take your time." Mrs. Jing still had a smile on her face and her tone was gentle.

"I..." Su Muqing was still thinking about how to reply. Luo Keke on the side said directly: "It's okay, just wait over there, the elders are more important." Luo Keke said while supporting Madam Jing.

Mrs. Jing did not respond to Rococo's words, but looked at Su Muqing.

Su Muqing then replied, "Yes, we will be there in a moment. It won't take long. We are here first so as not to interrupt your conversation."

Madam Jing smiled and said, "Okay." Then she let go of Su Muqing and turned back to pick up the wine glass on the table. She glanced in Jiang Qi's direction and then said to her, "Well, we old people can't drink much. Let's just give it a try, okay?"

Su Muqing smiled and replied, "Of course. Thank you." After that, he toasted everyone one by one with his wine glass.

The ladies also raised their glasses and took a symbolic sip. After finishing the drink, Su Muqing and Luo Keke said goodbye and went to the next table.
