At the same time, Su Manhan and Zhan Yao were busy receiving guests who came to the banquet.
Su Manhan had just finished greeting a distant relative, and when she turned around, she found that everyone from the research institute had also arrived.
It's Professor Qiao's research institute where Qiao Jing works.
Originally, Su Manhan thought that Qiao Jing had invited some colleagues over, but when she took a closer look, she found that not only ordinary employees were here, but even big shots at the leadership level were also present!
When she first recognized these people, Su Manhan was still a little suspicious.
Logically speaking, when a subordinate gets married, there is no need for the unit leader to be present in person.
What's more, he is the leader of a national-level research institute.
In her opinion, although Qiao Jing works in the research institute, he is just an ordinary employee. Why would these big shots come here to congratulate him?
After being confused for a moment, Su Manhan suddenly thought that these people must have made this trip specifically for the sake of the Zhan family and her son!
Thinking of this, Su Manhan smiled and stepped forward to greet him.
After standing in front of several leadership members of the institute, she smiled and said: "I'm glad you can come to today's wedding. I welcome you on behalf of the Zhan family!"
The leading man smiled back, and then said casually: "Mrs. Zhan, you are too polite. We are honored to come to this wedding!"
After saying that, something suddenly occurred to him and he spoke again, "By the way, let me introduce, I am Qin Jinghua, and the four people next to me are Deputy Director Lin, Director Xu, Director Wu of the scientific research office, and the academic team
Captain Bai."
The one who was speaking was Qin Jinghua, the director of the institute.
Because Qiao Jing only wanted to focus on research, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, she hid the identity of the person in charge and did not want people to know that she founded Professor Qiao's research institute.
Therefore, in the eyes of the outside world, the main leaders of the institute are Qin Jinghua and others.
Su Manhan greeted several people one by one, and then added, "Qi Pei is preparing for the ceremony and is temporarily unable to come. If there is any inconvenience in greeting me, please forgive me."
Su Manhan thought Qin Jinghua and the others came here for Zhan Qi Pei's sake, so she explained it specifically.
However, Qin Jinghua and others didn't care at all whether Zhan Qi Pei could come over. Instead, they looked around for Qiao Jing.
Several people looked around, but no one saw Qiao Jing at the scene.
So, they all asked Su Manhan.
"Mrs. Zhan, why didn't you see the bride? Where is she now?"
"Yes, Professor Qiao—ahem, why isn't Miss Qiao here? I also want to congratulate her in person."
"Mrs. Zhan, please tell me the bride's current location. We all want to congratulate her in person."
Listening to the questions from several people, Su Manhan was a little bit unresponsive and was completely confused.
All they asked was Qiao Jing, and they didn't even mention her son. Aren't these people here for her son?
However, isn't Qiao Jing just an ordinary employee in the research institute?
Why do these people sound so respectful when they mention Qiao Jing?
Just when Su Manhan was puzzled, Qin Jinghua saw that she was still silent, so he guessed: "Mrs. Zhan, is it that Miss Qiao is also busy preparing for the meeting, so she doesn't have time to see us?
"
After hearing this, Su Manhan came back from her thoughts.
Although she was still confused, she replied truthfully: "Yes, yes, Qiao Jin is dressing up. The bride, of course, has to dress up beautifully, so the dressing time will be a little longer. You can first
Come sit aside for a while."
Qin Jinghua said "Okay" and then went to the rest area with the other four people.
