CHAPTER 32: CHAPTER 32: FAWNING LIKE A PUG

"Alright, shall we go eat? I know a good restaurant."

"Sure!" Yu Man nodded.

Then she gave a sly smile to the production crew, "Mind if I use your show’s money to treat everyone?"

"No problem!"

"Let’s go, this time the production crew is treating us."

Yu Man and Xu Ying happily took the kids over, only to run into Mu Zhi...

Of course, it wasn’t just Mu Zhi there; now all the guests had gathered together.

"Manman sister..."

Yu Manman instinctively hid behind Yu Man.

Mu Yaoyao’s eyes reddened, "Manman sister, I’m sorry, will you forgive me?"

She took a step forward, wanting to grab Manman...

"Don’t touch Manman!" Xu Wanwan blocked in front of Yu Manman, "She’s my good friend! You’re not allowed to bully her!"

Yu Manman’s eyes lit up, Wanwan is so good!

"..." Mu Yaoyao was extremely dissatisfied in her heart, she was merely her defeated opponent, yet dared to get in her way?

If she forcefully dragged Yu Manman and she was pushed to the ground, everyone would side with her.

But Xu Wanwan just had to come and cause trouble!

"I’m sorry, I just want to be friends with Manman..." Mu Yaoyao lowered her head, flashing tears of grievance.

Xu Wanwan exploded in an instant!

"No way! Manman is my friend! You’re not allowed to take her away from me!"

Xu Wanwan looked at her with eyes full of vigilance!

Manman was her only recognized good friend! She wouldn’t let anyone take Manman away!

"Little one, you misunderstood!" Mu Zhi said gently to Xu Wanwan, "Our Yaoyao isn’t trying to take your friend, she’s joining you."

"This way, you have one more friend, don’t you?"

Xu Wanwan was taken aback, it seemed to be the case...

Mu Zhi’s eyes flashed with a hint of a smile as she tried to hold Xu Wanwan’s hand.

Xu Wanwan immediately dodged.

"I don’t want to!" Xu Wanwan huffed, "I don’t like her! I don’t want to be friends with her!"

Mu Zhi’s smile froze.

"Why..."

Xu Wanwan pouted and ran behind her mom.

Xu Wanwan was sensitive to emotions and could sense the hidden malice in Mu Yaoyao.

Like those other kids, she didn’t like her at all! Nor did she like Manman!

She was definitely here because the adults at home had told them to play with her!

Yeah, just like her brother said, to cling onto their family!

Xu Wanwan quietly took another glance at Mu Zhi, this adult definitely wanted to meet Mom!

I’m not stupid!

Manman did say she’s really smart!

"Mom, I’m hungry, I want to eat~" Xu Wanwan whined to her mom.

"Okay, okay! Let’s go eat!"

These days, her daughter had made new friends and was so well-behaved! Xu Ying couldn’t be happier!

It’s just that she didn’t want to play with other kids, so what?

As long as her daughter wasn’t causing trouble, she’d be grateful!

"Yu Man, why don’t we eat together?" Mu Zhi quickly suggested again, "Look, we could gather together."

"I hadn’t seen you today, I thought you weren’t in the amusement park."

"So, you were with this lady."

Yu Man frowned, always feeling like there was hidden meaning in Mu Zhi’s words.

Xu Ying glanced at Mu Zhi, internally sneering.

She’s seen plenty of people like her. In her family, wasn’t there an insidious stepsister?

"Alright, then let’s be together." Xu Ying smiled slightly.

She was curious to see what this woman was up to.

[The scene looks harmonious, but I always feel an undercurrent?]

[Mu Zhi seems to be sarcastically mocking Yu Man for not fitting in?]

[Whoa, fight, fight, I love to see it!]

"And you are?" Mu Zhi asked curiously, "Here with your daughter on a trip?"

"Xu Ying, I live nearby." Xu Ying hadn’t even sat down, just gave the nearby waiter a look, and they immediately poured her a cup of tea.

"Miss Xu, your favorite Cloud Mist Tea."

Clearly a regular.

Mu Zhi was momentarily stunned, her peripheral vision sweeping over Yu Man.

Yu Man’s luck was certainly good, riding on her daughter’s coattails, befriending a ’noble’ young lady.

Anyone living in Land City, they were casually referred to as ’noble’ behind their backs, because they were either wealthy or prestigious.

Having grown up, Mu Zhi had never acquainted herself with these people.

And she always thought she wasn’t any less than those noble young ladies and didn’t want to grovel like those people.

She had her dignity!

"So that’s how it is."

"I’m Mu Zhi, can I call you Xu?"

She thought this young lady might be different from the aloof young ladies she had encountered before and maybe they could connect...

If Yu Man could, why couldn’t she?

"Forget it, I’m not familiar enough with you to have the sister address."

Plus, she disliked so-called sisters.

This Mu Zhi was just like her stepsister, proud inwardly, striving to be competitive.

"Okay..."

A trace of annoyance flickered in Mu Zhi’s eyes, she asked again, "Miss Xu, what would you like to eat?"

"I’m the guest, I’ll go with the host’s preferences. You order, I have no particular dislikes." Xu Ying smiled softly.

"In that case, let’s order." Vivian opened the menu, "Little ones, what do you want to eat?"

As she asked this, Vivian’s gaze was directly on Xu Wanwan.

Xu Ying was hard to approach, so Vivian started with Xu Wanwan.

Just asking the little ones what they wanted and it didn’t count as currying favor...

Being in the entertainment industry, she naturally wanted to know more ’nobles’, and even if they couldn’t be friends, leaving them with an impression and becoming familiar would suffice.

Xu Wanwan said directly, "I want this...this..."

Xu Wanwan sat next to Manman, "This one is super delicious!"

She pointed out four or five dishes and still wanted to introduce more delicious food to her good friend!

"Wanwan, once you’re done ordering, let the aunties order now." Xu Ying said.

Xu Wanwan immediately stopped, she was usually the most afraid of her mom! The family spoiled her, only her mom would scold her! Wanwan didn’t dare to act up in front of her mom.

If only her mom were as gentle as Manman’s mom!

"Manman! There are so many fun things here! Let’s go play together!"

Xu Wanwan pulled Manman away.

"Rock, you should go play with brother Wen Jin too." Vivian urged her own son.

Just as she was about to speak, Mu Zhi was a step slower than Vivian, holding back her breath.

As expected from someone in the acting circle, they knew how to ingratiate...

"Mom, I also want to play with brother Rock!"

Mu Zhi immediately nodded with a smile, "Go ahead!"

Lately, her daughter enjoyed playing with that curly-haired kid.

Yu Man watched her daughter leave, feeling a little nervous.

With so many kids and attendants around, Manman should be fine, right?

She was anxious because of Mu Yaoyao scaring her.

However, a few minutes later...

"N-not good, they’re fighting..."
