Xiao Ruanruan and the others followed Su Yiqing into the Li family's spacious living room, where they saw Li Wanjun wearing a white princess dress and a dazzling crown on her head. However, from Xiao Ruanruan's perspective, which had been spoiled by her older brothers, the crown looked really cheap and smelled strongly of plastic.
Li Wanjun greeted the guests with a dignified and elegant smile. When she saw Xiao Ruanruan and the others, she lifted her skirt and walked towards them.
Su Xixi leaned close to Xiao Ruanruan's ear and said, "Tsk tsk, Xiao Ruanruan, Li Wanjun really went all out tonight. She even dared to wear a princess dress. You have no idea how dark her face was after she planted a thousand trees."
Xiao Ruanruan blinked her big, bright eyes and looked at Li Wanjun carefully. The lights at the banquet were bright, and Li Wanjun's face was covered with thick powder, so she couldn't tell that Li Wanjun was as dark-skinned as Bao Gong.
However, she had already decided that if Li Wanjun dared to provoke her, she would make Li Wanjun perform a makeup removal demonstration in public.
"Hanhan, Qianqian, and Ruanruan, you're here! The other girls are playing over there. Would you like to come and play with me?" Li Wanjun said in a deliberately soft voice with a hint of coquettishness.
Sisi took the soft little hand in her hand.
Little Ruanruan, holding onto Sister Qianqian with one hand and Qin Sihan with the other, looked up with a bright smile and said, "Okay, Sister Li, please take us there!"
As Su Xixi walked alongside Xiao Ruanruan, she leaned close to Xiao Ruanruan's ear and said somewhat nervously, "Xiao Ruanruan, I always feel like she's smiling like an old witch. She must be up to something."
Xiao Ruanruan said helplessly, "Sister, don't worry. Today is Li Wanjun's birthday banquet. The Li family wants to use this birthday banquet to build relationships, so they definitely won't allow Li Wanjun to cause any trouble."
Li Wanjun was walking ahead of them, affectionately pulling Qin Sihan's hand and asking, "Sister Hanhan, is Brother Qin Huan very busy with school lately? Why didn't he come?"
Qin Sihan broke free from Li Wanjun's grasp, her eyes darting around mischievously as she deliberately provoked her by saying, "Oh, Brother Qin Huan said he doesn't attend birthday parties of people he dislikes."
Li Wanjun almost lost her elegant smile. Although she managed to maintain it, she couldn't respond to Qin Sihan's words and could only give an awkward laugh.
She led the three little sisters into the playroom next to the hall, which was specially designed for children.
This game room is like a small amusement park, with all kinds of amusement facilities and many video games.
Many children are already having a great time inside.
But Xiao Ruanruan's gaze was drawn to the little girl sitting quietly on the leather sofa next to her, her fingers carefully swiping across the tablet.
She couldn't help but sigh that the social circles in Beijing were indeed not very large; she never expected to see Chen Danqing here.
However, Gu Chen's brother said that he would not let Chen Danqing join them to participate in the Youth Science and Technology Competition, so she and Chen Danqing are two strangers.
However, while she felt they were strangers, Chen Danqing didn't see it that way.
When Chen Danqing heard Li Wanjun invite her to go play, she suddenly looked up at her.
After staring at her for two seconds, he got up and walked straight toward her.
When he reached her, he looked down at her with an arrogant and indifferent gaze, and extended his hand to her. "Su Ruanruan, hello. You should have already seen my information. I am Chen Danqing."
"Hello!" Little Ruanruan stretched out her little hand and shook hands with her, greeting her in a sweet, childlike voice.
"I want to talk to you," Chen Danqing said, getting straight to the point.
Little Ruanruan nodded and replied crisply, "Okay."
Then, she gave her sister Qianqian a reassuring look, and walked out of the game room with Chen Danqing, all the way to the end of the corridor.
Chen Danqing stopped and turned to look at her. "You refused my offer to join you in the finals of the Youth Science and Technology Competition?"
When this topic came up, Xiao Ruanruan put away her smile and tried to be serious.
However, her chubby little face was just too cute, making it impossible for her to give off a sense of pressure.
"Yes, I refused." Little Ruanruan puffed out her little chest, trying to make herself look more imposing.
"Afraid I'll slack off and steal your credit?" Chen Danqing said with a hint of sarcasm.
Little Ruanruan frowned slightly. "Not entirely."
"Are you afraid I'll steal your designs and technology?" Chen Danqing asked knowingly.
He then nodded and said, "That's right, anyone would have that kind of worry."
"So, do you still insist on joining us?" Little Ruanruan tilted her head, looking up at Chen Danqing with adorable cuteness.
Actually, because of Chen Danqing's words, she had a pretty good impression of her.
"No!" Chen Danqing said decisively, "Besides, joining you in the first place wasn't my original intention. It would be great if you could help me refuse this offer."
"Oh, right, I'll show you something that might be useful for your finals," Chen Danqing said, handing the tablet to Xiao Ruanruan.
Xiao Ruanruan took it and saw that the tablet computer contained an analysis of the teams from various countries that had entered the finals of the Youth Science and Technology Competition.
She had originally planned to look up these materials when she got back tonight, but Chen Danqing gave them to her directly.
She suddenly realized that she had been petty in trying to guess Chen Danqing's thoughts.
Chen Danqing slightly raised her chin. "Send it to your own email. We'll be classmates in the future, and I look forward to the day when I can compete with you."
