Rebirth: The Doomsday Solitary Favorite Chapter 160

Chapter 160 Hongmen Banquet

Early in the morning, Duan Shuhua sent someone to tell Han Yi that he and Han Jiaojiao could attend her birthday luncheon. The messenger repeatedly emphasized that it was just an ordinary family dinner, saying that Professor Duan had invited several familiar friends and hoped that Han Yi and Han Jiaojiao would definitely be there.

A 50th birthday is quite important, but considering Han Jiaojiao's hatred of the Qin family, Han Yi didn't want to go, but the other party repeatedly emphasized that he hoped that the younger generations could get together to get to know each other.

Han Yi was full of doubts. What did Duan Shuhua mean?

Han Jiaojiao's performance was unexpectedly calm. Not only did she not show any signs of anger, she even joked that she must go with her brother to prevent Qin Nanyi from taking advantage of the situation.

Seeing that there was not much time left for the luncheon, Han Yi took a box of blood swallows from the space as a birthday gift, and the two changed their clothes and went out.

Duan Shuhua booked a private room in the base's special banquet hall. When Han Yi and Han Jiaojiao arrived, everyone else had already arrived.

As Duan Shuhua said, she only invited a few familiar people. Duan Shuhua, Qin Nanyi, Qin Wenhao, Du Wenbo and two other young people she didn't know sat in the private room. Including Han Yi and Han Jiaojiao, there were only eight people at the table.

When Duan Shuhua saw them coming in, she smiled and said, "Hurry up and sit down. We're just waiting for you."

There were cakes and various dishes on the table. Qin Nanyi put candles on the cake and lit a fire. The lights in the private room dimmed, and the music of Happy Birthday floated around. Qin Nanyi sang the birthday song softly along with the music. The whole private room was full of harmony.

After the birthday song was finished, Duan Shuhua blew out the candles, and Qin Nanyi urged her with a smile: "Mom, make a wish quickly."

Duan Shuhua smiled, "I'm old, how can I make a wish like you young people?"

"Oh, who doesn't make a wish on a birthday? Make a wish quickly." Qin Nanyi acted like a spoiled child.

"Okay, okay, my only wish is that you will marry a good family in the future and live a happy life."

"Mom!——" Qin Nanyi stamped her feet with a blushing face.

Everyone laughed.

The lights in the room came back on. Duan Shuhua pointed at the people around her and introduced them to Han Yi: "This is my nephew Qin Wenhao, this is Du Wenbo, the son of Dean Du, and this is Ye Rui and Li Yanliang, both of whom are young and promising researchers in our research institute. You are all young people. If you have the chance, you might as well get to know each other more. People of our generation are already old. In the future, it will still depend on you young people."

Qin Nanyi pouted unhappily beside her, "Mom, it's your birthday, can you stop saying you're old all the time."

Duan Shuhua smiled and nodded, "Okay, no more, no more."

Du Wenbo also echoed from the side: "Aunt, you and Nanyi sitting together are like a pair of sisters, you don't look old at all."

The two young people next to them raised their glasses and toasted Duan Shuhua.

"In the future, Professor Duan will have to provide more guidance for the research institute. We are young and inexperienced, and we cannot do without your help."

"Yes, without Professor Duan's cultivation, how could we have achieved what we have today..."

The atmosphere was very harmonious, and even Han Jiaojiao toasted Duan Shuhua with a glass of wine. She couldn't say anything flattering, so she just said happy birthday, which was considered to be a courtesy.

After that, everyone gave gifts, and Duan Shuhua was very happy and said, "Being old also has its advantages. I can always receive tributes from the younger generation."

Everyone laughed.

Duan Shuhua added, "I also prepared a gift for you. It's the golden taro rolls I made this morning. I haven't cooked for a long time. You can try them and see if they suit your taste." She turned her head and looked at Qin Nanyi, "Xiaoyi, go to the kitchen and get some."

Qin Nanyi smiled and said yes, and got up and walked towards the door of the box. When passing by Han Yi's seat, Duan Shuhua seemed to suddenly think of something and suddenly said, "I remember that Ayi loved this snack the most when he was a child. Once, you couldn't wait to eat it just after I fried it, and you burned your tongue..."

Qin Nanyi's face showed nostalgia, and he smiled and said, "Yes, I remember this too."

"Ayi, help Xiaoyi get some. I made a lot of it, and I'm afraid that two plates can't hold it." Duan Shuhua looked at Han Yi and said gently.

This was not a big deal, but for some reason, Han Jiaojiao's heart skipped a beat.

Then she watched Han Yi stand up and follow Qin Nanyi out of the room——

"It's okay, your brother will be back soon, we are still waiting to eat taro rolls." Duan Shuhua smiled and comforted her.

Du Wenbo couldn't sit still and said, "I'll go get it for Xiaoyi..."

Duan Shuhua looked at him teasingly, "Okay, it's just a few dishes, she will be back soon."

Du Wenbo laughed.

At this time, Qin Wenhao, who had been silent, suddenly stood up, took a few steps to sit in front of Han Jiaojiao, half-closed his eyes and said, "The skirt you are wearing today is pretty."

Han Jiaojiao was stunned and didn't react for a long time. What does he mean?

Qin Wenhao snapped his fingers in front of her, "Are you free later? Take you out to play."

Han Jiaojiao finally came to her senses. ——He is chatting...

The tense nerves relaxed.

Han Jiaojiao tried to act natural, smiled, and said, "...It's too hot recently, so I don't like to go out."

"It's cool at night." Qin Wenhao's smile deepened, and he moved closer to Han Jiaojiao, saying in an ambiguous tone, "I like the night, too."

Duan Shuhua coughed twice on the side, looked at her and Qin Wenhao jokingly, and said, "Wenhao, you can't take Jiaojiao away while her brother is not around. Ayi is keeping a close eye on her. Jiaojiao has never gone out with a boy."

Hearing this, Qin Wenhao looked at Han Jiaojiao with a brighter look.

Han Jiaojiao's mind became clearer after hearing Duan Shuhua's words. So...that's what she meant...

This mother and daughter really did everything they could.

"You've never been out...that's so boring." Qin Wenhao's eyes fell on Han Jiaojiao, looking at her unscrupulously. "But the Beicheng base is really boring. It's not as good as our Yamanan base. I've been here for a few days, and I only think that fishing in the Huai River is fun. Have you been there?"

"No." Han Jiaojiao turned her face away and replied shyly. The fire in her heart kept rising, but in the next moment, she suddenly realized something and calmed down...

Maybe, this is an opportunity.

Just as she was thinking, Qin Wenhao on the other side had already said, "I'll pick you up in the evening. I'm most familiar with the fishing area."

Han Jiaojiao's face showed yearning, and she looked at Duan Shuhua with some trepidation, "If my brother knew, he would scold me."

Duan Shuhua smiled lovingly, "It's good to go out and have fun, don't bore yourself, don't worry, I won't tell your brother."

Han Jiaojiao bit her lip, glanced at Qin Wenhao shyly, and whispered, "Then I'll go there by myself in the evening, you don't have to pick me up, I'm afraid... if my brother knows, I don't know if I can sneak out..." The last tone was as thin as a mosquito's voice, but it was just right for everyone in the box to hear clearly.

Qin Wenhao saw that her shy appearance was very lovely, and when he thought that he would be able to taste the taste in the evening, he felt overjoyed.
