Qiao Anhao stepped into the clubhouse and handed over her invitation. Immediately, a waiter brought her to the ballroom, which was decorated like a crystal palace. Inside, the lights were dazzling, and there was a gentle piano playing in the background. Almost all of the prominent families in Beijing were present. Everyone was dressed luxuriously, and those they knew were gathered together, chatting and laughing.
Qiao Anhao wore a nude spaghetti strap dress. She handed her jacket to the waiter, picked up her handbag, and stood at the entrance, looking left and right. In the end, her gaze landed on mother Qiao, who was holding a glass of red wine and laughing with a few other rich ladies. Then, she elegantly walked over in her high heels.
"Auntie."
When mother Qiao heard her voice, she immediately turned around. When she saw Qiao Anhao, she immediately reached out to hold her hand affectionately. "Qiao Qiao, you're here?"
"Yea." Qiao Anhao took a wine glass from the waiter's tray, and obediently stood beside mother Qiao. She waited for mother Qiao to introduce everyone in front of her one by one. Then, she immediately raised her wine glass and greeted them one by one.
Qiao Anxia and Chen Yang had gone to Japan, so they weren't able to attend tonight's party. But because Qiao Anhao was there, even though she wasn't as flamboyant as Qiao Anxia, she was very gentle. On top of that, the two movies she had accepted had already been released, and the reviews were very high, so the rich ladies couldn't stop praising her.
Even though Qiao Anhao wasn't mother Qiao's biological daughter, she had raised her for more than ten years. Hearing people praise her like this, she was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth.
Qiao Anhao smiled and stayed with mother Qiao for a while. Then, she looked around, and finally found Han Ruchu, who was clinking glasses with others and exchanging greetings. She leaned over to mother Qiao's ear and said in a low voice, "Auntie, I'll go say hello to Aunt Xu."
Mother Qiao smiled kindly and nodded.
Qiao Anhao gave a friendly smile and nodded at the noble madams. She said, "Excuse me", then turned and walked towards where Han Ruchu was standing.
Even though Xu Enterprise's biggest shareholder was Lu Jinnian, the person in charge was Xu Jiamu. In the past five months, Xu Jiamu had accumulated more and more Xu Enterprise shares, and his authority grew. Han Ruchu, who had once suffered a disastrous fall, must have been comforted. Now that they hadn't seen each other for over a month, she looked a lot better than last year's birthday. She must have used her methods to clear up the conflict between Han Ruchu and Xu Jiamu and his mother on the night of her birthday.
Actually, it was normal.
Qiao Anhao had never hoped that the events of that night would break their mother-son relationship. After all, blood was thicker than water. Even if Han Ruchu had done something wrong, Xu Jiamu would still be soft-hearted.
However, the conflict could be resolved, but the estrangement could not be erased.
And tonight, she had deepened the estrangement between the mother and son by one step!
At that thought, a cold light flashed in the depths of Qiao Anhao's eyes, but it was only for a split second before she returned to her usual warm and gentle self. She took a few more steps towards Han Ruchu, and said as intimately as she could, "Auntie Xu."
When Han Ruchu heard Qiao Anhao's voice, the smile on her face clearly froze for a moment. After about ten seconds, she looked over at Qiao Anhao and smiled warmly. "Qiao Qiao."
After last year's birthday incident, her heart must have been very miserable!
