The Goddess is a Little Pitiful, I Invested in Her!

Chapter 95: Graduation Banquet or Wedding Banquet?

There were quite a few close relatives in Qi Yuns family. Qis father had two brothers and one sister, and Qis mother was similar.

Perhaps because they lived far away and there werent many conflicting interests. Their relationships were quite good.

Qi Yun and Qis father picked up Qi Yuns cousin and her family from the train station.

Brother Qi Yun? Qi Yuns cousins daughter, Li Ya Jie, was the liveliest among the relatives, and she had the best relationship with Qi Yun. Before Qi Yun passed away in his previous life, he specifically entrusted this cousin.

Now Li Ya Jie was no longer the young girl who tried to comfort Qi Yun by the bedside while holding back her tears. She was now in her first year of high school, and when she saw Qi Yun, she was a bit afraid to recognize him.

Qi Yuns appearance hadnt changed much from the perspective of his features, but for someone like Li Ya Jie, who hadnt seen him in a long time, it felt like seeing two different people.

Li Ya Jie became even more restrained after getting into Qis fathers new Audi.

Second Brother, when did you buy a car?

Qi Yuns cousin was also curious, feeling around in the car.

Its not me who bought it. Its Qi Yun who bought it. Didnt I tell you before? He opened a milk tea shop.

Qis father drove the car and didnt turn his head.

Qi Yun saw from the rearview mirror that Li Ya Jie was secretly looking at him in the back seat.

When he looked over, the little girl seemed startled like a frightened hamster, and she quickly shrank her head.

They arrived at the hotel. Qi Yun got out of the car and opened the door for his cousin and her family.

Looking at his cousin avoiding him, he rubbed her head forcefully and asked, Whats wrong? Why are you so scared of me?

Li Ya Jie relaxed after being teased by Qi Yun and regained the familiar feeling!

I think you dont look like my brother anymore! The little cousin hummed and shook off Qi Yuns hand, following Qis father to the banquet hall.

When they reached the entrance, she saw a red banner with a line of words: Qi Yun and Qingxues Graduation Banquet.

Li Ya Jie scratched her head, feeling that something was off.

Who was Qingxue? She asked.

Also, the banner looked familiar, but it didnt quite resemble the style of a graduation banquet.

Qi Yun also entered the lobby.

Qi Yuns graduation banquet didnt have grand intentions, but quite a few people came.

Qis father and Qis mothers friends and colleagues were present, and many of Qi Yuns classmates also came, filling three to four tables.

Qingxue and Wang Shang were receiving guests over there. Qi Yun walked over and patted Wang Shangs shoulder. Youve worked hard today.

Tch, were brothers! When I had my graduation banquet, didnt you help out too? Wang Shangs graduation banquet had already taken place. He had been admitted to a prestigious university in Shanghai, which was much better than his previous life.

At the graduation banquet, Qi Yun noticed that Aunt Zhous face had stiffened from smiling too much.

Qi Yun glanced at Qingxue and said, Qingxue, my mom wants to talk to you.

Huh? Qingxue, who was talking to a girl from their class, was a bit puzzled.

She walked toward the table where Qis mother was.

Seeing Qingxue approaching, Qis mothers eyes lit up.

Qingxue! Come, come! She grabbed Lian Qingxues hand and introduced her to the people at the table, This is Qingxue! Isnt she beautiful? Let me tell you, Qingxue is not only good in academics but also has a good character! She chatted excitedly with the people at the table.

Qingxue heard Qis mother praising her to the sky and couldnt help but lower her head.

The colleagues around the table exchanged puzzled looks.

Werent they here for her sons graduation banquet?

Why were they only hearing praises for Qingxue from Qis mother?

Qis mother pulled Qingxue from this table to another, introducing her to each relative individually.

Seeing the somewhat embarrassed expression on Lian Qingxues face, Qis mother spoke up, Qingxue, Auntie wants to tell you that Im not worried about that brat Qi Yun. Hes thick-skinned and rough, but youre different. Auntie truly sees you as a child of our family.

Today is not just Qi Yuns celebration for entering university. Its also yours! Youre also a special person today! Were here. No need to be shy or hide in the corner. Besides, you are excellent, and if Auntie said anything wrong, I want you to know that our Qingxue is outstanding!

Li Qingxue nodded. She understood that Qis mother was concerned that she might feel lonely and neglected here, as everyone present was Qis relatives.

Many people knew Qi Yun, but only a few knew Lian Qingxue.

Although Lian Qingxue didnt mind, she appreciated Qis mothers kindness. As they moved to other tables, she didnt feel as timid anymore, leaving a deep impression on the guests.

Qis mother walked up to the last table, where Qis relatives were seated. They were waiting for the banquet to begin and became curious when they saw Qis mother leading a beautiful girl towards them.

Li Ya Jie was the most curious one, and as she looked at Lian Qingxue, a hint of admiration flashed in her eyes.

What a pretty girl! Even though I dont consider myself someone who judges by appearances, its hard not to turn into a fanboy/girl when you see Lian Qingxue. For example, Li Ya Jie had transformed into a fangirl.

At this table, Qis mother felt even more at ease.

Come, Qingxue. These are all our relatives! Let me introduce you. He is Qi Yuns uncle.

He is the third uncle.

She is the younger aunt.

Qis mother introduced each relative at the table to Lian Qingxue one by one.

Lian Qingxue was very well-behaved, greeting each of them individually. The relatives at the table became even more curious.

Who is this young girl? Qi Yuns uncle asked.

Shes Qi Yuns girlfriend! Qi Yuns mother replied.

Li Ya Jies eyes instantly lit up. She sensed the scent of gossip in the air. Qi Yun has a girlfriend?

Li Ya Jies mother, Qi Yuns aunt, was surprised.

Qis mother proudly smiled and asked, What makes me most satisfied with Qi Yun?

What? Did he become the top scorer in the province? Uncle guessed.

Not to mention Qis father and mother, these relatives are talking about how their nephew has become the top scorer in the province for the past two months. It always elicits a round of admiration.

They thought Qis mother would be most satisfied with that.

No! Its that he found such a good girlfriend as Qingxue!

Wow!

How satisfied must she be?

Is it even better than becoming the top scorer?

Qis mother continued, You dont know, if it werent for Qi Yun and Qingxue dating, I would have adopted Qingxue as my goddaughter! Qis mother seemed a bit regretful.

As the group of people listened, they couldnt help but feel a tinge of jealousy.

Is she here to show off her daughter-in-law?

After talking for a while, the food was served.

Lian Qingxue and Qi Yun took their seats.

Li Ya Jie was happy because Lian Qingxue sat beside her

Li Ya Jie suddenly spoke up while watching Lian Qingxue eat small bites. Can I call you Sister Qingxue?

Sure! Lian Qingxue looked at her with bright eyes and asked, You must be Ya Jie, right?

Yes, Im Li Ya Jie. Do you know me?

Qi Yun told me about you. He said the most lively girl at the table is you. Lian Qingxue replied.

Hmph! He wouldnt be so kind. He must have said Im the naughtiest! Li Ya Jie said.

Li Ya Jie didnt believe it. She and Qi Yuns relationship was based on the fact that they had fought and played together since they were young.

How can Qi Yun say anything nice about her?

She didnt believe it!

Lian Qingxue chuckled.

Qi Yun said something similar to what Li Ya Jie had just said. However, Lian Qingxue couldnt bring herself to say it out loud. Unexpectedly, Li Ya Jie had already guessed it.

Sister Qingxue? Are you really dating my brother? Li Ya Jie couldnt help but ask curiously.

Yes! Lian Qingxue replied.

How long have you been together? Li Ya Jie asked Lian Qingxue.

Officially, it should be after the college entrance examination, but we confessed our feelings for each other early on. Lian Qingxue replied.

Huh? Confessed? Li Ya Jies eyes lit up. Who confessed to whom? Was it my brother? Li Ya Jie asked in surprise.

No, it was me, Lian Qingxue replied.

Lian Qingxue remembered her impulsive confession and couldnt help but laugh.

Li Ya Jies mouth dropped open.

It was you who confessed, Sister Qingxue? She didnt expect Lian Qingxue, who appeared gentle and fragile, to have such courage.

Not only that, but I confessed in front of the entire school. Lian Qingxue said.

Amazing! Li Ya Jie exclaimed.

This sister is fierce!

Sister, what do you like about my brother? Li Ya Jie asked Lian Qingxue.

In Li Ya Jies young heart, Qi Yun was still the older brother who pulled her pigtails, snatched her snacks, and took her everywhere.

She couldnt think of any reason why her brother Qi Yun would be deserving of someone like Lian Qingxue as his girlfriend!

In the heart of little fangirl Li Ya Jie, not only was Lian Qingxue, not someone Qi Yun could match, but she hadnt even thought of someone who could match her big sister Qingxue!

Lian Qingxue smiled and said, Qi Yun is great!

What makes him great? Li Ya Jie wanted to know more.

He hes great in every way. Lian Qingxue replied.

Li Ya Jie:

It seemed like she had shown up.

At this moment, she finally remembered why she felt the banner was so familiar!

It didnt look like a banner to celebrate entering university at all!

It looked like a wedding banner!

Where would you find a university entrance celebration banner with two names placed together like that?

Thinking about it again, Qis mother introduced the new person, Lian Qingxue, to them, right?

What was the difference between that and a wedding?

Li Ya Jie felt that she had seen the essence of it!

The university entrance celebration, err no, it was over.

Li Ya Jie didnt leave the city and stayed at Qi Yuns house for a few days. She revolved around her sister Qingxue for a few days. Wherever Qingxue went, she went too.

She didnt even bother hiding her fangirl nature.

She was only taken away by Qi Yuns younger aunt. When she left, tears rose in her eyes, especially because she didnt want to leave Qingxue and the milk tea. But Lian Qingxue and Qi Yun didnt have time to play with her anymore.

They had reached the time to go to the capital city.
