They soon arrived at the Si family's gate and went inside.
Tang Wan noticed that the tables around her were lower than the tables she usually touched, and she could reach the food on the tables simply by stretching out her hand.
It seems that the CEO of the Si family might be someone who really likes children.
Just like Grandma Si.
She is not good with words, but she likes children.
Not everyone present had good intentions.
This is a battleground for adults, but also an opportunity to fight for resources.
Carrying invitations from the Si family and holding the chip called "children," they hoped to gain the favor of some "quiet monsters" on this chessboard.
However, their goals were too eager for quick success and instant benefits, making them seem like greedy monsters.
The enormous chandelier in the center of the stage is a visual feast that attracts everyone's attention.
Countless fine wines and desserts, exquisite makeup, and perfectly timed greetings are the invincible weapons for adults in the world of fame and fortune.
They used the most standard Jingjiao dialect to blend into this grand and lavish feast, making themselves appear to have entered the upper class.
Only Tang Wan watched their actions with her dark eyes, as if she were learning.
For a moment, Tang Wan felt as if she had entered a more brutal world.
They are better at disguising themselves and telling the same lies.
only……
"What are you thinking about?" Lu Lin grabbed Tang Wan's hand, pulling her out of that lonely and disoriented world.
Tang Wan blinked, then subconsciously took a bite of the dessert Lu Lin handed her, and shook her head.
Everything around me is real.
She lives in a real world.
While Tang Wan was lost in thought, the people around her were actually watching her.
The Lu Group and the Si Group are actually quite similar, except that the Si Group is more mysterious.
After all, the Si Group has always been associated with the red (political) community.
While the Lu Group may not be as prominent as the Si Group, it is still a well-established, local conglomerate that has never made any major policy mistakes.
When they heard that the unmarried young master of the Lu family had adopted a little sister, they thought it was a joke.
After all, it's such a large corporation, who wouldn't be tempted? To actually go looking for someone to divide the assets is just too foolish.
So when they learned that Si Enzhi had specially invited this little brat to the banquet, they all greeted their own child.
We need to see what's so charming about this little brat that makes the usually stern Si Enzhi like him so much.
So as soon as Tang Wan walked in, she felt many eyes on her.
These gazes fell upon her, as if scrutinizing her.
The kids who can get involved in this circle are probably not stupid.
They are incapable of throwing a tantrum in public.
Lu Lin felt a sense of irritation as he looked at the people walking towards him.
He shoved Tang Wan into Lu Ze's arms and said, "Keep a close eye on your aunt and don't let anyone bully her, or I'll beat you up when we get back."
Lu Ze had been wanting to take Tang Wan to visit his friends for a while, so he quickly nodded and left with Tang Wan.
They jogged through several corridors, then pushed open a door and entered a private room.
The furniture here is specially customized according to children's height, so it is thoughtfully designed with two floors, like a small castle.
The three children sitting on the second floor of the room, one girl and two boys, looked at the child Lu Ze was holding, nodded casually, and then, as if they hadn't seen Tang Wan, said to Lu Ze, "Did your family find you a child bride?"
"We even take a stroll when we go out to play."
Lu Ze was surprised that his friend would say such things about Tang Wan. He shook his head, his face no longer showing the innocent look he had when facing Tang Wan and Gou Xi, but instead becoming more serious.
Just like his mother, he looks like someone you don't want to mess with.
"What nonsense are you spouting? Can't you speak properly? I'll teach you."
He proudly pulled Tang Wan out and loudly proclaimed, "This is my aunt!"
"The cutest and prettiest aunt in the world!"
He looked so arrogant.
One of the kids sitting on the second floor was fiddling with a tablet, ignoring the group of bored brats.
His hair was chestnut brown, his eyes appeared slightly bluish from the blue screen, and he wore a pair of Bluetooth earphones, seemingly indifferent to everything around him.
The little boy who had just spoken was embarrassed after being "stern" by Lu Ze.
He jumped down from the second floor with a loud bang, startling the children on the first floor.
He shook his leather jacket, his hair was all wild, and his gaze toward Lu Ze was anything but friendly.
After all, the Lu family had seized a lot of his family's resources during this period. Even his father, who had such a good temper, couldn't help but curse the Lu Group for being unethical at home.
"Lu Ze, do you really think I wouldn't dare to hit you?"
Tang Wan felt that the little boy's actions and tone were very similar to those of the hooligans who often roamed outside the orphanage.
But his clothes were much nicer.
Tang Wan tilted her head, finding it quite amusing.
It turns out that people can change their identity by wearing different clothes.
Lu Ze didn't give him a friendly look, his tone even fiercer than before. But before he spoke, Lu Ze pulled Tang Wan behind him to prevent her from getting hurt if they started fighting.
"You're really barbaric. I don't know why they invited you in the first place."
The little girl in the princess dress sitting on the second floor suddenly changed her expression and looked somewhat unhappy.
At this moment, the little boy who had been wearing headphones spoke up: "I told you from the beginning not to let Zhou Po come, and now look what happened, you're arguing."
The little girl rolled her eyes and said irritably, "You don't use headphones, so why are you wearing them?"
"Besides, I never expected him to be so impatient, provoking Lu Ze right away. He really isn't afraid of causing trouble for his father."
The little boy reached out and pushed the earphones into his ears, saying, "It's quiet here, and no one will bother me with questions."
"So annoying."
As they were talking, the atmosphere between Lu Ze and Zhou Po below grew increasingly tense, as if they were about to start fighting at any moment.
However, just as Zhou Po clenched his fist, Tang Wan raised the tablet in her hand, which had the following text written on it.
[This is someone else's home; you're being very rude.]
Tang Wan knew that once people put on clothes, they would pay extra attention to the face that was exposed.
These children, in a way, also represent the face of the family.
Therefore, if this little boy makes a move and Lu Ze fights with him, it will be a double loss of face.
It's okay for the little boy to be embarrassed.
Tang Wan didn't want Lu Ze to lose face.
So she gently swiped the screen, which read...
[After all, even if it's two against one, you still can't win.]
But Tang Wan could embarrass herself along with Lu Ze, since she hadn't put on that "robe" yet.
