Shui's birthday banquet arc (9)

A few minutes before.

This wasn't supposed to happen. This wasn't what Jin had planned. He arrived at the banquet with Jian's gift in his hand. But the moment he entered, he noticed people rushing here and there from one place to another. It seemed to him like everybody was finding somebody.

He didn't care. He just wanted to hand over the gift and end Jian's whining once and for all. But he couldn't find him anywhere. So instead he thought to give it to anybody he would meet from his family first and leave.

From a distance, he did catch Nuo's sight and was walking towards her when a man bumped into him in a hurry.

The man widened his eyes as he recognized Jin. "Oh Liu Jin. I am so sorry!"

Jin also knew him as an heir of one of the rich families. "No problem."

He shrugged and began to walk away when he saw a chit flutter by his foot's side which he realized probably fell from the man's hand who he had bumped into just now.
