After receiving permission, Qin Xiaoya greeted her parents and left the hospital.
"Sasha, are you still with Mr. Jiang? Oh, you're playing in the Forbidden City? I'll come pick you up. Mr. Jiang's medicine is very effective, and I want to thank him properly," Qin Xiaoya called Qin Xusha.
Upon learning that the three of them were at the Forbidden City, Qin Xiaoya instructed the driver to take her there. When they arrived, Jiang Chen, Jiang Lu, and Qin Xusha had already exited the Forbidden City.
Qin Xiaoya invited them into the car, placing Jiang Chen in the front passenger seat while the three ladies settled in the back. Throughout the journey, Qin Xiaoya was clever enough to engage Jiang Lu in conversation since she knew Jiang Chen was not very talkative.
Before long, Jiang Lu affectionately called her "Sister Ya," which made Qin Xiaoya beam with joy. Building a good relationship with Jiang Chen's sister was undoubtedly a fortunate opportunity for her. She planned to visit Peking University whenever she had time to hang out with Jiang Lu and Qin Xusha.
Jiang Chen sat in the car, fully aware of Qin Xiaoya's intentions but chose not to dwell on it.
After more than half an hour, they arrived at a private club specifically designed to host prominent figures from the capital. Even wealthy individuals could not gain entry without an invitation.
Inside the private club, the environment was serene and elegantly decorated in an antique style. The gentle sound of flowing water and soft music filled the air.
Soon, exquisite dishes were served—delicacies that were quite extravagant and unattainable for ordinary people. The meal lasted over an hour. Although Qin Xiaoya had something to say to Jiang Chen, it clearly wasn't the right moment.
After finishing their meal, Qin Xiaoya informed Jiang Chen that she had arranged a hotel for him—one of the best in the capital—with a nightly rate of one hundred thousand yuan. Jiang Chen asked if Jiang Lu and Qin Xusha wanted to stay over, but both insisted on returning to school, so he did not press further.
Qin Xiaoya thought this was for the best and arranged for the driver to take Jiang Lu and Qin Xusha back to school, mentioning that she might invite them out again tomorrow.
As night fell and the moonlight bathed everything in a soft glow, after sending off Jiang Lu and the others, Qin Xiaoya turned to Jiang Chen and said, "Mr. Jiang, I will be getting engaged in a few days."
"Oh? That's great; congratulations," Jiang Chen replied with a slight smile.
"But my fiancé is not someone I like," Qin Xiaoya said, gazing at Jiang Chen with a complex expression.
"If you don't like him, then don't marry him; it's quite simple," Jiang Chen said casually. He was used to living freely and didn't care much for worldly rules or expectations.
"Mr. Jiang, if it were that simple... The other party comes from a prominent background; he is a descendant of the Martial Arts Family—the Yan Family. Although he was born into this family, he is nothing but a good-for-nothing playboy. If he were even one-tenth as capable as you are, I would willingly marry him; unfortunately, he is not," Qin Xiaoya said with a troubled expression.
"In my eyes, everything in this world is simple; there’s nothing I can’t do if I choose to do it. Your situation is no different; however, between us—let's be honest—we're not even friends. I have no obligation to help you," Jiang Chen replied with a faint smile.
Mentioning the Yan Family sparked some recollection in Jiang Chen. Last year at the Songnan Martial Arts Tournament, Ancestor Yan Lianwei from the Yan Family had attended. Given that Yan Lianwei knew about Jiang Chen's abilities, helping him would indeed be easy if he chose to do so.
Qin Xiaoya looked at Jiang Chen in shock, sadness spreading in her eyes. "Mr. Jiang, what do we need to do to be considered friends?" Qin Xiaoya asked.
