Chapter 304: Mr. Xiao!
Qin Jiang's faint mockery immediately left Wen Tian utterly humiliated!
He really hadn't expected that Qin Jiang was the very instructor he had always admired.
Thinking about what he had said earlier, he wished he could find a hole to crawl into!
Compared to Qin Jiang,
he wasn't even worth dog shit.
Every year, the Martial Arts Department might have the first in assessments, but there are also many who turn out quite mediocre after joining, not achieving much significance.
Put bluntly, the future is still an unknown.
But Qin Jiang, he had already stood at the pinnacle of this system.
Defeating three special-appointed instructors by himself, such strength, you couldn't find three others like him in the entire Martial Arts Department!
He wasn't even qualified to lick Qin Jiang's boots...
The atmosphere was exceedingly awkward.
The relatives who had just been mocking Qin Jiang all shut their mouths, not daring to make a sound.
They may not fully understand what it means to be a special-appointed instructor of the Martial Arts Department, but anyone with a brain would know that such a person is far beyond their capacity to offend.
Nor someone they could hope to meet!
To put it unpleasantly, if it weren't for the fact that Qin Jiang was coming to the birthday banquet today, even if they knelt before him and their knees turned to mush, they wouldn't qualify to meet him!
In contrast to their silence, Old Mr. Wen and Old Madam Wen were beaming with utter joy!
"Good! Good! Jiang, I had no idea you were so impressive! You've truly made your grandfather happy!" exclaimed Old Mr. Wen, greatly moved.
The Wen Family had raised so many descendants, with very few standing out, yet unexpectedly, the one who brought glory to their family was the son of Wen Wenling!
"Wenling, your choice back then was right indeed…" Old Mr. Wen sighed with a touch of melancholy.
"Dad, let's not bring up the past," said Wen Wenling with a smile.
No matter what, Qin Jiang's limelight at the birthday banquet did let her have her moment of triumph, and seeing her brothers and sisters all looking dejected and not daring to meet her gaze, she felt like laughing.
"Ah," Old Mr. Wen gave a bitter smile and silently poured himself a glass of wine.
Wen Xiaobai was the first to react, picking up a glass of wine, "Jiang, ah, just now your uncle was blind, my mistake! My mistake! Let me punish myself with a drink!"
"Absolutely, we looked down on you with our dog eyes; it's our fault! From now on, you must look out for us, right?"
"Your fourth aunt will also punish herself with a drink. Jiang, I was just joking with you earlier, you won't take it to heart, right? We are relatives, sharing the same bloodline!"
Several people immediately changed their demeanor, shamelessly trying to ingratiate themselves with Qin Jiang.
Qin Jiang set down his wine glass indifferently, "I can't handle my liquor, so I won't be joining you," he said placidly.
When they were all pressing him and his family with mockery, why didn't they remember their family ties?
Now, having learned of Qin Jiang's true identity, they switch faces and come groveling.
Isn't it disgusting?
Qin Jiang didn't even know how these people could have such thick skin!
Qin Sisi said indifferently, "As the saying goes, 'Shamelessness is invincibility.' I've really seen it all now."
The attitude of the siblings left Wen Xiaobai and the others with faces full of displeasure, "This must be what they call a nobody getting arrogant; they don't even recognize their own family anymore. Well then, it seems our Wen Family has reached too high and inconvenienced Instructor Qin!"
"Alas, if I were at that level, not to mention anything else, at least the entire clan would ride on my coattails, not like some people who turn up their noses at their own kin!" Bai Shuang'er mocked as well.
Qin Jiang couldn't help but laugh in derision; he had truly witnessed the depth of their shamelessness, putting on such a two-faced performance for him.
The birthday banquet had lost all its flavor.
Wen Tian still wanted to save face, not coming up to fawn over Qin Jiang, just sitting there not knowing what to do, his face full of embarrassment and awkwardness.
"Old Mr. Wen, I trust you've been well. Today's birthday banquet was a bit of a rush for me, so I didn't bring a gift – my apologies."
A young man walked in with several others.
He greeted everyone casually.
Instantly, everyone stood up and respectfully saluted the young man, "Mr. Xiao!"
