Chapter 253: One surprise after another!
Tang An is now eager to announce this good news to the whole world.
She wanted to tell the whole world that she was about to possess the Ryan family's jade pendant.
Who can compare to her now?
Not to mention the capital city.
It's probably China.
No one in the entire world will ever share the same glory as her.
That's the Ryan family's jade pendant!
With the jade pendant in hand, she could do whatever she wanted in P country from then on. Even if she never worked hard and stayed in bed all her life, she would still have endless wealth!
"Ah!" Upon hearing Tang An's words, Su Xiaoling screamed in disbelief, "Really, An'an? You're the benefactor Miss Ryan is looking for? I didn't hear wrong, did I?!"
Not only was Tang An excited, but Su Xiaoling was also very excited after hearing the news.
The benefactor that everyone else went to great lengths to curry favor with was actually her good friend.
This feeling is so wonderful.
Tang An was very satisfied with Su Xiaoling's reaction. She preferred to be the one others envied. At this moment, Tang An's vanity was overflowing. He nodded and said, "Yes, you heard me right."
Su Xiaoling became even more excited and continued, "An'an! You're such a hidden talent! Not only are you Miss Ryan's best friend, but you've also become Miss Ryan's savior!"
Tang An's face was full of humility, and he spoke in a gentle tone, "I do have some favors to do for Miss Ryan, but I did not expect that Miss Ryan would value me to this extent, and even dare to give me the jade pendant as a gift!"
Shi Nanyue, who was standing to the side, was also very shocked and quickly said, "An'an, you are too low-key. How come I have never heard you mention this before?"
Having spent years mingling in the circles of the wealthy, Shi Nanyue naturally knew what the Ryan family's jade pendant represented.
No joke!
From this moment on.
The Tang family genealogy could all start with a separate page beginning with Tang An.
She is the pride of the entire Tang family.
Su Xiaoling continued, "That's right, An'an, how come I've never heard you mention knowing Miss Ryan before? And you didn't even tell your aunt!"
Tang An naturally couldn't say that she had only recently met Xilia.
It's even more inappropriate to say that she met Xilia through her relationship with Shi Mubai.
Tang pretended to be indifferent, smoothed her hair at her temples, and said nonchalantly, "Because I never thought it was anything to brag about."
Su Xiaoling's eyes widened. "Isn't this something to brag about? That's the Ryan family's jade token! As long as you get it, you can transcend social classes and change your social standing! We might spend our whole lives and still not be able to get the Ryan family's jade token."
Let alone the jade plaque.
Even Miss Ryan isn't someone they can easily get to know in their circle.
It's worth noting that Miss Ryan's best friend was previously the royal family of Country P.
Young ladies from Beijing's elite circles are no match for Miss Ryan.
Tang An remained indifferent, saying, "Although Miss Ryan is of noble status, in my eyes, she is just like us, with only one nose and two eyes."
At this point, Tang An grasped Su Xiaoling's hand and continued, "Xiaoling, don't make a fuss."
Su Xiaoling gave Tang An a thumbs up.
I must say, Tang An was incredibly calm!
She will probably need to cultivate for a very long time to reach Tang An's level.
After saying that, Tang An looked at Shi Nanyue again, "And you, Mom, I know you like to show off, but I want to keep a low profile. You can't go around telling people about the jade pendant!"
Tang An is saying the opposite of what he means.
She deliberately said she didn't want Shi Nanyue to talk about it everywhere, but actually she wanted to make the matter known to everyone.
Suppressing her shock, Su Xiaoling looked at Tang An and said, "By the way, An'an, when you receive Miss Ryan's jade pendant, can you lend it to me to take a look? I've only ever seen what a jade pendant looks like in books."
“Of course.” Tang An nodded. “Not only can I show you the jade pendant, but I can also introduce you to Miss Ryan.”
Su Xiaoling asked excitedly, "Really?"
That's Celia!
Su Xiaoling only hoped to be able to say a few words to the other party at Tang An's tea party.
Unexpectedly, Tang An was able to introduce her to Xilia.
This was an unexpected surprise for Su Xiaoling.
I never expected Xi Tang'an to be so generous.
“Yes,” Tang An said with a smile, “you are my good friend.”
Su Xiaoling hugged Tang An, "An'an, thank you!"
"You're welcome," Tang An smiled very gently. "It's nothing."
Su Xiaoling looked at Tang An and then said, "I've heard that Miss Ryan doesn't have many friends in China. You're the first one. If you introduce Miss Ryan to me, then I'll be the second one."
Clearly, Su Xiaoling had fallen into the dream of becoming good friends with Xilia.
Although Tang An was smiling, he was inwardly mocking Su Xiaoling as a fool.
Everyone knows that Cyril has a bad temper.
Even if she introduced Celia to Su Xiaoling, Celia wouldn't give Su Xiaoling a second glance.
Su Xiaoling, that idiot, actually wants to be friends with Xilia?
Daydreaming.
Tang An snorted inwardly, then corrected, "No, Xiao Ling, you're mistaken. I'm not the first; I should be the second."
Upon hearing this, Su Xiaoling was taken aback and turned to look at Tang An. "An'an, do you mean you're not Miss Ryan's first friend in China?"
“Yes,” Tang An nodded, “I’m not the first.”
Su Xiaoling frowned slightly and asked curiously, "Then who was the first?"
She must be really amazing to be Seria's first good friend in P country!
In an instant, Su Xiaoling was filled with curiosity about that person.
Tang An continued, "Actually, Miss Ryan's first best friend was my sister."
"Your sister?" Su Xiaoling's brain froze for a moment, then she asked, "An'an, are you talking about Shi Sheng?"
“Yes.” Tang An picked up his cup and took a sip of water. “Although my sister has been living in the countryside all these years, I don’t know how she had the opportunity to meet Miss Ryan. But my grandma told my mom that Miss Ryan and my sister are very good friends, and Miss Ryan has known my sister for a longer time than I have.”
Tang An did it on purpose.
She's laying the groundwork.
He deliberately said in front of others that Jiang Ning and Xiliya were also good friends, so that the moment of being proven wrong would be more interesting when the tea party started.
Su Xiaoling is no different from a human-shaped megaphone.
Once Su Xiaoling finds out about something, it will become common knowledge. When everyone knows that Xilia and Jiang Ning are good friends, but Xilia doesn't even glance at Jiang Ning at the tea party, how will Jiang Ning cope?
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!" Upon hearing this, Su Xiaoling's first reaction was that it was impossible. "An'an, you must be mistaken. Although Miss Shi is indeed quite outstanding, she has always lived in the countryside and has never been to P country. How could she possibly know Miss Ryan?"
Even a fool would know it's impossible!
Jiang Ning had no way of getting to know Xiliya.
It is clear.
Tang An was very satisfied with Su Xiaoling's reaction. She continued, "My sister is a very kind person. She wouldn't lie. If she says she knows Miss Ryan, then she definitely knows Miss Ryan. I believe her!"
Seeing how much Tang An trusted Jiang Ning, Su Xiaoling said helplessly, "An'an, I think you're the truly kind person, right? How can you believe everything people say! What if Miss Shi is just bragging?"
No matter how outstanding Jiang Ning is, it cannot change the fact that she comes from a rural background.
Since they are from the countryside, they have inherent flaws.
Boasting and vanity are inherent flaws.
Because of her poor background, Jiang Ning wanted to compete with Tang An in everything and see who was better.
"No, she won't," Tang An said, still with the gentle and kind older sister demeanor. "Sheng Bao would never brag. Xiao Ling, don't talk to her like that. If Sheng Bao hears this, she'll be unhappy."
Su Xiaoling narrowed her eyes. "True gold fears no fire. Whether Shi Sheng is bragging or not, we'll find out at your tea party. Anyway, it's only three days."
“Yes.” Tang An nodded, a sinister glint flashing in his eyes.
Jiang Ning should just wait and see how she makes a fool of herself on that day.
At this point, Su Xiaoling seemed to remember something, "By the way, An'an, I heard that Si Qiming, the thirteenth young master of the Si family, will also be attending your tea party?"
“Yes,” Tang An nodded.
Su Xiaoling immediately grabbed Tang An's hand, "An'an, I heard that the thirteenth young master of the Si family is still single. We are such good friends, could you, could you, could you introduce me to him?"
Tang An smiled, a flash of mockery in his eyes. "Xiao Ling, I know what you're thinking, but this matter might be a little difficult..."
snort!
Someone like Su Xiaoling dares to dream of marrying Si Qiming.
It's really overestimating one's abilities.
They don't even look in the mirror to see how much they weigh.
Doesn't she know that Si Qiming's greatest love is her?
Even though she's lame, she's still someone Su Xiaoling can't compare to!
"Difficult?" Su Xiaoling immediately asked, "Why?"
A hint of embarrassment flashed across Tang An's face, her eyes filled with hesitation, as if she didn't know how to begin. "Xiao Ling, you... how am I supposed to bring this up!"
Su Xiaoling is a very curious person.
Hearing this only fueled my curiosity!
"An'an, tell me quickly! Tell me quickly!"
"There are some things I shouldn't have said beforehand, but since you asked, I'll tell you." Tang An hesitated for a moment before continuing, "Actually, Si Qiming came here this time to confess his feelings to me."
It is said that lovers have a telepathic connection.
This was absolutely true. Tang An had a strong premonition that Si Qiming, who had come all the way from Hong Kong to attend her tea party, would definitely confess his feelings to her in front of everyone at the tea party.
They were already living apart, which made Si Qiming feel insecure. This opportunity was once in a lifetime, and Si Qiming would definitely seize it, confess his feelings directly, and declare his ownership to everyone!
Upon hearing this, Su Xiaoling's eyes widened, her gaze filled with disbelief. "What? An'an, you're not kidding me, are you?"
She never imagined that the person Si Qiming liked was actually Tang An.
"I'm not kidding. Qiming really did come here to confess his feelings to me. If you don't believe me, you'll find out at the tea party."
Su Xiaoling swallowed hard, her face full of shock. "I... I still can't believe it. Did you and Si Qiming know each other before?"
Although Tang An is quite pretty, she can only be described as a girl from a modest family.
But Si Qiming is different.
Su Xiaoling met Si Qiming at Jiang Ning's family reunion banquet.
The other person has broad shoulders and a narrow back, thick eyebrows and big eyes; he is a true outstanding individual!
Tang An lowered his eyes slightly, a hint of mockery flashing in them.
What did Su Xiaoling mean by that?
Do you suspect she's lying?
“Although Si Qiming and I didn’t know each other before, he fell in love with me at first sight.” Tang An paused here, then continued, “Facts speak louder than words, Xiao Ling. If you don’t believe me, you’ll know I’m not lying at the tea party.”
Since Tang An had said so, Su Xiaoling naturally had no more doubts.
After all, Tang An's tea party was in three days, so there was no reason for Tang An to lie.
I have to say, Tang An is incredibly lucky!
Not only was she Xiliya's savior, but even Si Qiming wanted to confess his feelings to her.
Su Xiaoling always thought that Jiang Ning had the best life. Not only was she the heir of the Shi family, but she was also a veritable little princess in the Si family. However, compared to Tang An, she was still somewhat inferior.
Su Xiaoling couldn't help but exclaim, "An'an, you really surprised me one surprise after another!"
Tang An grasped Su Xiaoling's hand, "However, Xiaoling, Si Qiming's confession to me is my secret, and I haven't decided whether to accept Qiming's confession yet. For his sake, please don't tell anyone else for the time being."
