"Alright, alright, I won't tease you anymore. But this little guy played quite well just now."

She's comparable to our previous partner, otherwise I wouldn't have given her such high praise.

Perhaps in his heart, this was also a kind of barrier for Lu Fan. He also felt that such things might be okay once in a while, but if they happened too often, it would inevitably cause Lu Fan to feel resentful.

After all, Lu Fan is now a married man, and too much flirting would make her seem somewhat promiscuous.

In his view, sometimes it's necessary to maintain a certain degree of moderation.

"Don't worry, I know my own size. Besides, it's my birthday today, so I can just make do."

Having said all that, what else could Lu Fan say? He could only silently accept the situation. After the two had eaten and drunk their fill, they went to the amusement park again that afternoon.

After touring around, Nangong Qi was a little tired.

Lu Fan truly never expected that a young lady from such a wealthy family would come to a place like an amusement park.

As the sun set, Nangong Qi, perhaps having had enough of the day's madness, looked slightly tired.

"I never expected someone like you to come to an amusement park for their birthday."

"What do you know? Don't be fooled by how much my family dotes on me; they hardly ever have time to play with me."

Birthday gifts usually involve money or something, which I don't care about at all. It's much better to spend time with me.

As Nangong Qi spoke, his tone became somewhat melancholy, clearly indicating that these words had a profound impact on his mind and spirit.

He tried hard to control his emotions, looking at Lu Fan, and could only use rebuke to cover up his true feelings.

"Alright, it's time. Let's go back now. My father is waiting for me there."

Hearing this, Lu Fan felt somewhat helpless. After delivering Nangong Qi to the Nangong family's place, Tian turned and left.

He just received news that Nangong Qi is ready, and he needs to go back and bring her over as well.

In his view, the other party was the true protagonist, and he didn't want the Nangong family to know his thoughts.

Although he needs to win this person over, he has no right to interfere with the Nangong family's attitude.

He treats others the way they treat him; this is his basic principle.

As soon as he arrived downstairs at the company, he noticed the changes in Jiang Manyue's entire body. She had gone out to get her hair done and had a beauty treatment to moisturize her skin.

It has to be said that money really does nourish people!

"Hey beautiful, what are you doing in my car? I'm looking for my wife! She'll be jealous of someone as young and pretty as you."

Hearing this, Jiang Manyue cursed under her breath.

"What are you talking about? You've been acting so frivolous all day. How come you've become so energetic after going out with that Miss Nangong?"

You still have the nerve to flirt with me? I think you're overthinking it!

Upon hearing this, Lu Fan was slightly taken aback, then immediately pretended that his clothes had suffered a great injustice.

Looking at Jiang Manyue beside him, he saw her holding her leg with one hand and touching her waist with the other, groaning in pain.

“My dear Jiang Manyue, you have no idea how much inhuman torture I have endured today. In the end, I wanted to find some comfort in you, but this is the kind of person you are.”

The moment he finished speaking, he looked like he was about to cry, and his fast hand movements made Jiang Manyue laugh.

"Alright, alright, none of you are serious. It seems like it's about to start too. Let's hurry over there."

This time, we need to show some sincerity. I went out today and bought something that would be perfect as a gift for him.

Although Lu Fan spent the whole day with the other party, he only thought of attending the ball afterward. This plan was to use his identity as the birthday celebrant, and he had to show his sincerity in some way.

"You're so thoughtful; I had almost forgotten about that."

Jiang Manyue didn't speak, but glanced at Lu Fan. After all, this guy was completely replacing him in another way, so whether he did it or not wouldn't have much of an impact on him. However, she still felt a little uneasy.

"Where did you go today? What did you do? You didn't even tell me!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Fan immediately told Jiang Manyue the whole story, because he couldn't afford to offend her.

"Don't worry, everything I said is true. If it's even slightly false, may I be struck by lightning!"

Jiang Manyue didn't press the matter further. It was just a formality, and she trusted Lu Fan enough. There was nothing between them that couldn't be discussed.

The two soon arrived at the ball that day. It has to be said that the place was completely different from the Lu family villa in terms of appearance. Lu Fan could feel that every part of it exuded luxury.

Everything was not on the surface, yet its inherent nobility was evident. This was perhaps the profound heritage that the Nangong family wanted to showcase.

"I think the Nangong family is also aware of the other party's purpose this time, and they are thinking of using this opportunity to make the other party understand the strength of the Nangong family!"

Looking at the furnishings around him, Lu Fan noticed that many of them symbolized power and money, something that would never appear at a girl's birthday party.

Jiang Manyue, who was standing to the side, also observed that there was definitely something else involved, otherwise, the other party would not have been able to display such great strength based on this alone.

"However, if that's the case, the Nangong family might not want to get involved in this matter, and demonstrating their strength is part of their reconciliation with the other party!"

This is not a good thing for Lu Fan. If the Nangong family were to participate, it would be a good thing for them.

This immense strength also meant they had absolutely no worries about the future.

"It's alright. Even if they don't participate, we are confident that we can handle this matter perfectly!"

After the two finished speaking, they went to the middle of the ball, where Lu Fan saw many government officials.

When they looked at Lu Fan, they didn't take the initiative to greet him, which shows that they were doing very well in the entire Nancheng City.

To outsiders, they are all representatives of successful people, but here, anyone could make them feel uncomfortable.

Some of them even felt very embarrassed when they were pulled out.

The two of them were hesitant and dared not make too many moves here, after all, these were people from all walks of life, celebrities, and they did not dare to be too presumptuous.

Jiang Manyue looked at the item in her hand. She had gone to great lengths to make him stand out and leave a good impression on these people.

As the ball began, not many members of the Nangong family were present.

On the contrary, Lu Fan found it rather simple.
