Chapter 1148: Chapter 1148-schoolmate!
Her emotions came and went quickly. After talking to Qiao Yu for a while, Xia Ning’s mind returned to normal.
The restaurant was a high-end hotel. The waiter pushed open the door of the private room, and Qiao Yu and Xia Ning walked in. Someone immediately looked over and stood up,””President Qiao is here!”
At this point, the others also noticed Qiao Yu’s arrival and stood up.
“President Qiao.”
Of course, they had also noticed Xia Ning’s presence. Everyone was stunned for a moment, then someone spoke first,”President Qiao’s wife is here too.”
Although Xia Ning’s status as an actress made them look down on her, they still had to give her some face since she was the woman Qiao Yu had his eyes on.
“h.e.l.lo, everyone!” Xia Ning nodded at the crowd.
“h.e.l.lo, Madam Qiao.” Everyone laughed and said.
“President Qiao, Madam Qiao, please take a seat.”
Qiao Yu held Xia Ning’s hand and walked towards the two empty seats.
...
Xia Ning looked past the people in front of her and her gaze suddenly fell on the figure sitting by the table. A subtle emotion flashed in her eyes. Was he a lingering spirit?
Li Xiao saw Xia Ning and Qiao Yu coming over and immediately stood up with a smile,””Senior, senior.”
“Oh, so President li is from the same school as President Qiao and Mrs. Qiao.” Someone said in surprise.
Boss Yuan immediately explained,””President li graduated from Cambridge University. So did President Qiao and Mrs. Qiao.”
“Madam Qiao looks about the same age as President li. Why did President li call her senior?” Someone else asked. These people were usually busy, whether it was with women or with social events, but they never paid attention to entertainment gossip, so they didn’t know Xia Ning’s background. They only vaguely knew that she was Qiao Yu’s schoolmate.
This time, President Yuan didn’t say anything. He looked at Qiao Yu and Xia Ning. This was an answer that only the person in question could answer.
Li Xiao interrupted.”Of course it’s because our Mrs. Qiao is talented and intelligent. I was twenty when I was a freshman in United Kingdom, but she was already a first-year master’s student by the time she was twenty.”
“So that’s how it is. That Madam Qiao is quite powerful.” Someone immediately praised her. It was absolutely right to praise her at this time. If Madam Qiao was happy, President Qiao would be happy, and the business would be better in the future.
Qiao Yu and Xia Ning sat down, their faces expressionless.
On the other hand, Li Xiao continued,””When I was in University, I asked my seniors in my Department. Although she is young and often skips cla.s.s, her grades are among the top in all subjects. She is known as a top student and has always been the object of our wors.h.i.+p. Even though she took a year off due to some reasons, when she graduated, she was still on the list of outstanding graduates of Cambridge.”
“Of course. Madam Qiao is not a simple person if she can make President Qiao like her.”
“I’ll have to ask my girl to learn from Mrs. Qiao. I’ve been so worried about her studying abroad. ”
“That’s what I wanted to say, boss ke. My girl has been having some trouble choosing a school recently. I’m hoping that you and Mrs. Qiao can help her.”
Xia Ning filtered out the compliments from the crowd and looked at Li Xiao with a cold glint in her eyes. The rest of the people present might not understand what she had just said, but she and Qiao Yu did. It was obvious that she had said it for them to hear, no, it was mainly for Qiao Yu to hear.
