Chapter 456: Huading Revolving Restaurant
Xia Qinghuan quickly hid the exquisite gift box in her hand behind her back and said proudly, âNo, Iâll give it to you later!â
In her eyes, there had to be a ceremony when giving gifts on oneâs birthday. How could she give it out on the streets so casually?
Jian Ai smiled and called for them to enter first.
Xia Qinghuan and Yan Tian naturally saw Si Yuehan as well. Over the past two days, Si Yuehan had been going to school with Jian Ai every day. The two of them also knew that they had become friends now, but Jian Ai did not say that Si Yuehan would come to this birthday party.
Moreover, he was a strange person. Previously, she took the initiative to greet him, but did not receive a response. This time, she did not have the intention of greeting him.
The boys walked in front while Xia Qinghuan held Jian Aiâs arm from behind. She lowered her voice and asked, âWhy is he here too?â
Jian Ai looked at Si Yuehanâs back and whispered, âI invited him. Heâs my friend now.â
Xia Qinghuan had a meaningful look on her face, and her gossipy heart was about to burn again. However, thinking that it was Jian Aiâs birthday today, she suppressed it and didnât pursue the matter.
The birthday girl had all the rights. Even if Jian Ai invited Jian Yiyi, she wouldnât say anything!
Of course, Xia Qinghuan knew that this was impossible.
The elevator reached the thirty-second floor, the top floor. As soon as the elevator door opened, a server in charge of receiving guests at the elevator door came forward.
âWelcome to Huading Revolving Restaurant. Do you have a reservation?â
Jian Ai nodded. âYes, Jian Ai!â
The server said, âAlright, please follow me!â
The revolving restaurant had floor-to-ceiling windows at a 360-degree angle. One could see the bustling cityscape of Baiyun City at a glance.
Every ninety minutes, the restaurant would rotate once. It was probably the time for a proper meal. Because it was slow, if the angle of the scenery outside the window was not changing, one would not feel the restaurant rotating.
The server confirmed Jian Aiâs reservation information at the front desk and led them to a long table with a good view.
This was Jian Aiâs first time here, and she was quite satisfied with the high-end and tidy dining environment.
As soon as everyone sat down, Guan Tao arrived. To their surprise, she didnât come alone but appeared with Gao Yang.
Without waiting for them to reveal their gossipy radar, Guan Tao rushed to explain, âI bumped into Gao Yang downstairs. Otherwise, I wouldnât know which floor this restaurant was on.â
Gao Yang didnât say a word. He wasnât someone who liked to explain things like this. Even if others misunderstood, he couldnât be bothered to say anything.
Guan Tao was holding an enormous box. She had prepared a gift for Jian Ai.
The box attracted Xia Qinghuanâs gaze at a glance. She couldnât help but ask, âOh my, Guan Tao, your gift is too big. Is there a person inside?â
Yan Tian smiled and said, âMaybe when we open it, Lin Yi will jump out from inside!â
Everyone laughed when they heard this, but Guan Tao couldnât help but feel embarrassed. She stuffed the gift under the chair and didnât give it to Jian Ai immediately.
âCan we serve the dishes now?â The server walked over and asked Jian Ai.
Jian Ai had already ordered the dishes when she made the reservation. When she heard this, she looked at the time. It was just past noon.
However, Lin Yi had not arrived yet. As such, she said, âLetâs open the wine bottles first. We still have people who havenât arrived yet. Weâll serve the dishes later.â
The server nodded and retreated.
When Yan Tian heard this, he couldnât help but ask Jian Ai, âYou still want to drink?â
Jian Ai raised her eyebrows. âOf course. Itâs my birthday. I have to drink a little!â
