Chapter 86 "How's his kissing skill?"
what?
Qiao Lan and her companions were dumbfounded.
The three of them immediately beamed with joy.
Qiao Lan: "Auntie, we're sorry to take your food for free, we'll give you money."
Jiang Wan handed the plate to her, saying, "I don't want the money, eat it while it's hot."
Delicious food was presented to us.
Seeing the girl's resolute attitude, Qiao Lan knew that continuing the argument would ruin the atmosphere.
She took the plate and gave a bright smile.
"Thank you, little girl."
Qiao Lan and her companion picked up a skewer, took a bite, and praised it highly.
"tasty!"
"It tastes really good!"
With their privileged family backgrounds, what delicious food haven't they eaten?
But the barbecue they were eating at that moment was given to them by a kind girl because they were hungry.
The food, which was originally rated 80 points, went way over the top!
After finishing her meat skewers, Qiao Lan took out a tissue from her bag to wipe her mouth and hands, and then took out her phone from her pocket.
"Little girl, can I take a picture with you?"
Jiang Wan paused for a moment, then smiled, "Of course."
She walked to Qiao Lan's side, made a peace sign, and smiled, revealing two shallow dimples.
Qiao Lan held up her phone and looked at several angles before finally choosing the one with the best lighting and pressing the shutter.
She looked through the photos and nodded in satisfaction.
"Young lady, you have such beautiful skin."
Jiang Wan laughed, "I was young then. If I had your skin and figure when I'm your age, I'd be laughing in my sleep."
This wasn't Jiang Wan flattering her; she genuinely admired the woman in front of her.
She takes good care of herself and has a great presence.
Qiao Lan rarely met a girl who was both pleasing to the eye and had a sweet tongue, so she took the initiative.
"Auntie would like to add you on WeChat, is that alright?"
While asking the question, he had already tapped the WeChat QR code.
"Okay~" Jiang Wan didn't hesitate much and took out her phone to scan the QR code to add him.
After the friend request is accepted.
Jiang Wan asked her, "Auntie, what's your name? I'll make a note of it."
"My name is Qiao Lan. Qiao is the character for tall trees, and Lan is the character for mountain with the top part and the character for wind at the bottom."
Jiang Wan nodded and began to introduce herself.
"My name is Jiang Wan, Jiang as in ginger, and Wan as in evening."
"Jiang Wan..." Qiao Lan murmured, looking at her with a smile.
"Ginger's heart is gentle and warm, its charm serene and tranquil in its later years."
"It's a good name."
Jiang Wan smiled sheepishly.
After chatting for a few more minutes, Qiao Lan and her two companions continued their walk along the stream.
Jiang Wan returned to the grill, and Zhou Feiyan came over and said, "Wanwan, that aunt has such a good temperament."
Jiang Wan nodded in agreement, and Li Zhile's leisurely voice rang out from the side.
"Not only does she have a good temperament, but she's also a rich person."
"I've seen that Patek Philippe watch on her wrist in a magazine; it costs over three million."
"Holy crap!"
The corn kernels in Wang Yurong's mouth flew out, and she looked at Jiang Wan.
"Wanwan, you met a female tycoon with just a few skewers of barbecue."
"666~"
As he spoke, he made a six with his right hand and twirled it in the air.
Jiang Wan was amused by her.
Whether he was rich or not, Jiang Wanzhen didn't care.
She was simply adhering to the idea of making many good connections.

Along the stream, Qiao Lan walked while fiddling with her phone.
She put together a nine-grid photo of herself and Jiang Wan, along with the landscape photos she had just taken.
I posted it on my WeChat Moments with a caption—
[I bumped into a beautiful and kind-hearted girl and got a free barbecue meal]
After sending the message, she showed her phone to her two companions.
"How was it? I took a good group photo, didn't I?"
After reading the comments, the woman in the blue dress said, "Your photography skills have improved! But I must say, this young girl is really pretty."
Qiao Lan proudly raised her eyes. "Right? Let me tell you, I felt an instant connection with this girl the moment I saw her."
"I didn't expect that his personality would be even more attractive after getting to know him."
"When she said she wasn't selling it, I thought she really wasn't selling it, but then she said she'd give it to us for free."
"I like this little bit of humor."
"Ms. Qiao, are you trying to find another goddaughter?" the woman in the gray tracksuit teased her.
Qiao Lan sighed, "I'd like to, but my son would definitely disagree."
"From a young age, he was adamant that I should not acknowledge him or adopt him, saying that if there were more girls in the family, he would move out."
As Qiao Lan said this, a look of surprise appeared in her eyes.
"However, someone who is so averse to the opposite sex has actually started dating."
"Huh?" The woman in the blue dress stared in disbelief. "Which girl has caught your son's eye?"
Qiao Lan shook her head. "I don't know either."
He said he'd bring her home after he won her over.

At 6 p.m., Jiang Wan and her group returned to school.
She changed out of her clothes, which had been marinated in the barbecue sauce, and took them to the sink to wash.
After washing clothes, I took a shower and then put on a face mask.
After tidying up completely, I sat down at my desk and breathed a sigh of relief.
Outdoor outings are fun, but they're also really tiring.
Jiang Wan opened her phone and glanced at the time in the upper left corner.
7:30.
At this point, Shang Shixu hadn't even gotten off the plane yet.
She was about to open "TT" to accept an order when her phone suddenly rang.
The name Gu Manning caught Jiang Wan's eye. She pressed the answer button, "Hello?"
"Where are you now?" Gu Manning's voice was weary from the long journey.
"dormitory."
"I'm downstairs, come down."
"it is good."
Jiang Wan put on a jacket over her pajamas, changed into slip-on shoes, and walked out of the dormitory.
A few minutes later, I arrived downstairs.
The streetlights illuminated the open space in front of the building, where a white Porsche was parked.
Gu Manning, dressed in a formal suit, waved to Jiang Wan.
Jiang Wan walked out, and Gu Manning opened the car door, took out a cup of milk tea from the passenger seat and handed it to her.
"I brought this for you. I didn't know what you liked to drink, so I bought the best-selling one in the store."
Jiang Wan took it; it was still warm. "You just got off the plane?"
"Yes, things in Ancheng are temporarily settled." Gu Manning leaned against the car door, opened her glass, and took a sip.
Jiang Wan noticed the faint dark circles under her eyes.
"You can go back and get some sleep first, and we can talk again after you've had a good rest."
Last Friday, Jiang Wan used an allergy as an excuse and told Gu Manning about her plan to meet Shang Shixu while wearing a mask and sunglasses via mobile phone.
But Gu Manning couldn't wait to know what happened next.
"If I don't talk to you first, I won't be able to sleep when I get back."
"Let's go to the playground and talk as we walk."
Jiang Wan took a step and walked with her towards the playground.
Gu Manning spoke up, "Tell me in detail what happened between you and Shang Shixu these past two days?"
She turned her head to look at Jiang Wan, her face showing an expression that said, "I'm prepared to accept any shock."
Jiang Wan paused for two seconds before dropping a bombshell.
"I kissed him."
Gu Manning stopped in her tracks.
"...What did you say?"
"I kissed Shang Shixu."
Jiang Wan walked forward without changing her expression, her face flushed red to the roots of her neck.
Gu Manning quickly caught up, almost dropping the milk tea in her hand.
"You two kissed? Does he even know who you are?"
Jiang Wan shook her head.
Gu Manning felt a little relieved and continued to ask for details.
Jiang Wan took a deep breath and briefly recounted what had happened in the two days since she left.
After listening, Gu Manning remained silent for a long time.
The two walked around most of the playground without saying a word.
After digesting all the information, Gu Manning decided to lighten the mood.
"How's his kissing skill?"
