Chapter 169: Didn’t you get a call from Beijing University?
Qin Yan saw Qin Mufeng standing on the door. She did not wish to see him right now but he strode towards her, "Yan Yan, congratulations!"
Qin Yan forced a smile on her face, "Thank you, brother!"
Qin Mufeng observed Qin Yan’s forced smile and felt helpless and guilty. He knew that today morning’s call had estranged his relationship with his little sister but there was nothing else he could do.
He was shocked to see Qin Yan’s result and wanted to ask her why hadn’t she informed him about anything but when he thought about his own actions, he understood that he had lost the right to question his sister. This made him frustrated but he still chose to congratulate her.
However, seeing a forced smile on Qin Yan’s face, he realised that he was not needed there. He nodded at Qin Yan and said, "Yan Yan, I will leave now. You can continue with your gathering." Qin Mufeng did not want his little sister to get uncomfortable in front of her friends, so he left after saying goodbye.
Qin Yan, on the other hand, wanted time to adjust her mind so that she could understand her brother’s point of view. But because her mind was clouded with disappointment now, she needed time to sort out her emotions. Thus, she also did not stop Qin Mufeng.
Qiao Qing observed the estranged conversation of the brother and sister but she did not comment anything so as to not put Qin Yan in a difficult position.

Downstairs.
"Muran, Yaohua, you’re back! Have you found out? What’s happening upstairs?" Lu Yaran asked impatiently.
"It’s an important event. The guests who left probably went to show their faces there..." Qin Muran only mentioned the important event, but she did not bring Qin Yan up at all. Nobody in her group mentioned anything about Qin Yan. They all hated her to the core so nobody crossed Qin Muran’s words.
