Chapter 1595: You Are My Little Love Song (162)

This hotel had always had a good reputation in Hai City. The restaurant on the first floor of the hotel was open to both the inside and outside. Right now, other than Shi Niange and Auntie Bai, there were many people eating here.

However, the people who came to such a place were not here to have a meal. They usually came here to socialize and discuss cooperation. After all, the hotel’s environment was high. Therefore, the people who sat here to eat were mostly famous people in Hai City.

There was a very tall partition between each table. They could not see who was sitting at the next table, but they could hear a few words from Shi Niange.

“The matter of the two children should be settled like this, right?” An unfamiliar middle-aged man’s voice seemed to be in a good mood. “Our Xuan Er has been thinking about your Qin Siting for many years. There are so many young men chasing her, but she doesn’t like any of them. She only likes Qin Siting. As a father, I could only thicken my skin to talk to Old Qin about the two children. I didn’t expect Old Qin to have such intentions. That’s really great.”

Father Qin smiled. “The child has grown up. He is indeed approaching the age of marriageable age. Xuan’er should be twenty this year, right? Let’s get engaged first, and then get along well together. After a few years, when Si Ting’s studies are done, we can arrange a wedding. Our Qin family’s daughter-in-law can’t be mistreated. Old Ling, don’t worry. In the future, if Xuan’er is bullied by Siting in our family, his grandfather and I will be the first to stand up and beat him up.”

“Hahahaha, it’s not that serious. Xuan’er has been spoiled by us since she was young. Her character is very delicate. It’s fine as long as Si Ting can tolerate her.”

“Why can’t I stand it? It’s good for a girl to be more delicate. At least she has the appearance of a girl. She’s much better than those girls who roam outside like men.” Mr. Qin smiled kindly.

“En, that’s true. Especially when we’re in the business world, how many of those women who show their faces in the company are clean? Women should indeed behave like women. I’d rather you be more delicate than to show your face outside.”

The next table fell silent.

The person who spoke seemed to have realized that he had accidentally brought Qin Siting’s mother into the topic. Although he didn’t say it explicitly, anyone who heard it would misunderstand that this person was beating around the bush. He quickly said, “I’m talking about those young ladies from the public relations department. Each of them is more improper than the other, haha.”

After a while, Mr. Qin sighed. “Old Ling, it’s been so many years, but you still don’t know what to say. You’re the only one who knows about my family. BrotheR, your mouth is the worst.”

The middle-aged man who was addressed as Old Ling smiled and said, “We’ve really been brothers for so many years. I’ve never treated you as an outsider. But about Sister-in-law… let’s not talk about it. Every family has its own difficulties. Xuan’er’s mother’s health has always been poor. She often has to rely on medicine to keep her life. I don’t know how long she can accompany me. Although she is not by your side, at least she is all alive and well. There’s nothing bad about each other. Be more open-minded.”“Let’s talk about the children.”

“All right, I’ll leave the engagement to your Qin family. Our Ling family won’t interfere. I’ll leave my daughter to you.”

“All right, from now on, Xuan’er belongs to our Qin family. A married daughter is like spilled water. Don’t even think about taking it back.”

“Hahahaha, no, no. As long as Si Ting treats her well, I won’t accept…”

…

“Nian Nian?”

“Nian Nian?”

Shi Niange suddenly heard a voice and looked up to see Auntie Bai looking at her with a pained and worried expression.

Seeing that she had returned to her senses, Auntie Bai said softly, “What’s wrong? Are you still thinking about your mother? You seem to have a lot on your mind. I called you several times, but you didn’t respond. If your mood hasn’t eased, we can talk about the investment another day. There’s no need to rush. You should adjust your state first.”

Shi Niange picked up the cutlery and composed herself before saying, “I’m fine, Auntie Bai.”

She seemed to be fine, but Shi Niange was indeed sitting there listening to something. However, her eyes were dim, and it was clear that she was not in a good mood.

Afterward, she tried her best to maintain a calm and composed mood. After a simple chat with Auntie Bai, Auntie Bai saw that she was still in a bad state and told her to return to her room to rest after eating. She also said that she had already booked a room in this hotel with her identification number and could directly take her room card to rest.Shi Niange was not in a hurry to leave. She continued sitting there. Auntie Bai got up and went to the bathroom. She sat there and listened to the conversation between the two good friends at the next table.

The Ling family.

So it was Ling Xuan’er.

In her memory, when she was young, she had attended a few banquets with her parents in Hai City. Although they did not attend many, the people attending the same banquet were not simple.

And at that time, she had some impression of the two girls who were as young as her.

For example, Hai City’s Ji family’s young lady, Ji Nuan. Back then, it was likely that Ji Nuan’s father did not allow her to drink and only brought her daughter to attend the party. However, Ji Nuan was craving for alcohol, so she secretly took a glass of champagne and hid in a corner to drink it. It was especially interesting. Shi Niange happened to pass by and Ji Nuan’s face was red from drinking. She placed her finger by her mouth, indicating that she should not be exposed.

Shi Niange blinked and left with a smile.

The other was the Ling family’s Ling Xuan’er.

The Ling family seemed to be involved in the jewelry business. Their business was very large in the country. Although they were not ranked among the top families in Hai City, these four families were famous because they had been in the country for a long time. They were not famous families that could be squeezed into the family with just a little money and profit. Thus, even though the Ling family had a large family and business now, they were still a head shorter than the Qin family.

Her impression of Ling Xuan’er was also at the banquet. She was indeed a very delicate girl. As her mother’s health had been poor since she was young, she had subconsciously followed her mother. Her words and actions were all very soft and weak, but her temper was not small. An attendant had only passed by her. As her skirt was too long, he had accidentally stepped on the edge of her skirt. Her expression immediately turned bad. She said something to the manager of the banquet hall at that time and called the attendant to apologize to her. Then, she seriously said that her skirt had been stepped on. She did not have any intention of making things difficult for others, but as an attendant, she was walking so carelessly. She should not have done anything here. In short, at such a young age, she spoke about a lot of reasons. Then, the manager seemed to have fired the attendant that night.

Although Ling Xuan’er did not make a big fuss, at the banquet, the people standing near her also heard what happened.
