Evening in Chengdu.

Inside an Italian restaurant.

Dressed like a wealthy lady, Zhang Yao whispered to her son, "Son, you'd better behave well later, don't embarrass your mother!"

While playing on his phone, Han Lang replied, "Mom, you've said it so many times, I can recite it by heart, I definitely won't embarrass you!"

"That's good! You'd better cooperate with me. If you mess this up, wait till we get back and see how I deal with you!"

Seeing her son's nonchalant attitude, Zhang Yao couldn't help but warn him.

"Okay!"

Han Lang replied somewhat perfunctorily.

Just then, Zhang Yao received a text message and excitedly said, "Your Aunt Jiang has arrived at the parking lot. Stop playing on your phone and come with me to pick her up."

Han Lang didn't quite understand his mother's behavior. If they couldn't stand each other, they should just stop interacting. Why did they have to force themselves to compete with each other? What was the point?

Although he couldn't understand his mother's behavior, Han Lang still got up with her and went to the door to greet the person.

As the mother and son arrived at the restaurant entrance, they saw a group of three people walking towards the restaurant.

The person in the lead was Jiang Tianqin, his mother's best friend and old classmate.

But when Han Lang saw the girl behind Jiang Tianqin clearly, his eyes suddenly widened. He hadn't expected that in just a few years, Aunt Jiang's daughter had become so beautiful. It really was true that a girl changes a lot as she grows up.

What annoyed Han Lang was that Aunt Jiang's daughter already had a boyfriend, and they seemed to be getting along very well!

However, he immediately realized that as long as they were not married, he still had a chance. For a moment, his gaze toward Gao Yan became more hostile!

Gao Yan was always very sensitive to hostile gazes. When he felt Han Lang's gaze, he immediately understood that this kid was probably eyeing his Xiao Zhuo.

"Tianqin, it's been a while! You seem to be getting younger and younger!"

"No one can compare to you; you look more and more radiant!"

At the restaurant entrance, two middle-aged women hugged and then walked into the restaurant together as intimately as sisters.

"My mom and her family are so hypocritical!"

Seeing this, Xiao Zhu muttered to himself, somewhat speechless.

"Plastic sisters!"

Gao Yan chuckled lightly.

Xiao Zhu couldn't help but laugh: "Your description is really apt!"

Seeing Gao Yan and Xiao Zhu whispering to each other in public, Han Lang felt increasingly annoyed, but he pretended to be elegant and said, "Jiang Yue, do you still remember me? I'm Han Lang!"

"I didn't remember, but my mom mentioned you today," Xiao Zhuo said with a light laugh.

"Oh, what did Aunt Jiang say about me?"

Han Lang showed interest.

"My mom praised you as a top student who graduated from MIT and is also a senior researcher at Microsoft!"

"Haha, Aunt Jiang, you flatter me. It's really nothing to mention."

Han Lang smiled, then quickly added modestly, before his gaze fell on Gao Yan: "And this gentleman is?"

"This is my boyfriend, Gao Yan!"

"Hello Mr. Gao, I'm Han Lang, it's a pleasure to meet you!"

Han Lang offered his hand.

"Hello, Mr. Han!"

Gao Yan responded politely and shook hands with the other person.

"Alright, let's go over there first and then talk!"

Neither Gao Yan nor Xiao Zhu had any objections to this.

"Xiao Gao, let me introduce you. This is my old classmate and best friend. You can just call her Aunt Zhang!"

"Hello Aunt Zhang, I'm Gao Yan!"

"Young man, please don't be shy, have a seat. You must still be in school!"

Zhang Yao looked Gao Yan up and down and asked.

"Yes, I'm already a junior in college!"

Upon hearing that Gao Yan was still a student, a hint of disdain flashed in Zhang Yao's eyes.

At this moment, Han Lang said with a smile, "To be honest, I really miss my school days, unlike now, when I have endless work every day."

“No job is easy, after all, your company is a Fortune 500 company!” Zhang Yao said with a proud look.

Upon hearing this, Gao Yan secretly exclaimed, "Good heavens! They've only just sat down, and they're already launching their attack without giving anyone a chance to catch their breath."

Zhang Yao continued, "Xiao Gao, which university did you go to?"

"Nandu University!"

Lofty words are true words.

Is it a 211 or a 985 university?

"No, it's just an ordinary first-tier university!" Gao Yan replied calmly.

"It's just an ordinary university, but it's not bad!" Zhang Yao praised. "However, I've heard that these days, job seekers value academic qualifications quite a bit. With only an ordinary university degree, it might be a bit difficult for you to find a job you like!"

"Pfft!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhu couldn't help but laugh.

"Xiaoyue, do you think what Auntie said is wrong?" Zhang Yao asked with some dissatisfaction.

“Aunt Zhang, you’re wrong, because my brother Yan doesn’t need to look for a job, and no one can afford to hire him!” Xiao Zhu said seriously.

“Indeed, with Xiao Gao’s current income, even the Fortune 500 companies couldn’t afford to hire him!” Jiang Tianqin, who had been holding back for a while, nodded in agreement.

Hearing this, Zhang Yao was somewhat unconvinced: "Tianqin, you're exaggerating. Even if he's outstanding, he doesn't look down on Fortune 500 companies!"

"You've misunderstood!" Jiang Tianqin shook her head with a smile: "Xiao Gao started his own business, and it's doing quite well now, so naturally he doesn't need to look for a job!"

But Zhang Yao was unconvinced: "I've heard that starting a business is quite risky, Xiao Gao, what kind of company are you running?"
