After the family dinner ended.
The driver first took Teacher Qiu, Ji Hai, and the others home.
Lawyer Gu and the others had originally planned to just grab a cab back to their hotel. But after they declined Jiangg Ning's invitation to stay the night, she insisted they wait. She was too worried to let them go on their own and wanted the family driver to take them once he returned.
She wouldn't be able to rest easy until everyone had been dropped off at their destination.
They couldn't win against her persistence, so they had no choice but to agree.
In the time they spent waiting,
Jiangg Yao went upstairs and carefully selected a few gifts she had brought back from Tokyo for everyone. This, of course, included the skincare products they had discussed at the dinner table.
When the driver returned and it was time to say goodbye, Jiangg Ning personally walked them to the car.
