The True Thousand Gold Possessions of the Myriad Realms Trading System
Chapter 444 As expected, they are low-class people from humble backgrounds with no manners.
Although it was just Ah Bao's birthday party, most of the people who attended were there to network, so they were all dressed in fancy clothes and adorned with jewels.
Against this backdrop, Ruan Mianmian, dressed in an ordinary dress, still shone the brightest.
The elegant ladies and luxurious crystal chandeliers around her seemed to serve as mere backdrops to her beauty.
Several spoiled rich kids were stunned, bewildered, and involuntarily stepped forward to greet them.
But after only a few steps, they discovered that several familiar figures had already passed them, moving at an extremely fast speed as if strolling leisurely, and walked up to Ruan Mianmian.
The spoiled brats snapped out of their daze and looked at the man who seemed to be flirting with Ruan Mianmian. One of them exclaimed in astonishment, "Zhao Xiaosan, isn't that your older brother? Why is he acting like a peacock, flirting with you?"
Zhao Xiaosan had completely lost his voice; he even suspected that he had fallen into some kind of illusion.
Why would his handsome and dignified elder brother make such an expression?
It's incredible.
Chenchen suddenly exclaimed in shock, "Xia's second brother went up too."
The spoiled brats stared blankly, speechless.
They thought they would be able to go up and chat with her soon, but to their surprise, one person after another went up to talk to Ruan Mianmian, and they didn't know when it would be their turn.
The elites surrounding Ruan Mianmian stopped chatting when the birthday cake was brought out and the birthday girl was about to blow out the candles and cut the cake. But none of them left; they remained standing beside Ruan Mianmian.
Chenchen whispered, "See? Excellent people only hang out with other excellent people."
None of the spoiled rich kids said a word.
Seeing their outstanding older siblings standing beside Ruan Mianmian and befriending her in a friendly manner, they could no longer stubbornly insist that Ruan Mianmian was climbing the social ladder by associating with them despite her lack of family background.
Ah Bao cut the cake, then solemnly placed the first slice aside: "This cake is for the person I admire most!"
When Abao's parents heard this, they assumed it referred to Cheung Chi-hang, and their smiles widened even more.
Although the real estate and shares of each family have already been divided, there are still jewelry and cash that can be negotiated. Ah Bao is already favored by the old man, and if he says something like this now, he might be able to coax the old man into giving him jewelry worth 100 million!
To everyone's surprise, the next moment Ah Bao cut off the second piece of cake and presented it to Mr. Cheung Chi-hang with both hands.
Zhang Zhiheng was also a little surprised that the first piece of cake wasn't his, but he was too old to be angry about it. He smiled and took the cake, asking Abao, "Abao, who do you admire most?"
Abao glanced around the room and saw people everywhere, but couldn't recognize anyone at first. He smiled and said, "Grandpa, I'll tell you when I see them." He then cut a few pieces of cake and presented them to the elders in his family with both hands before walking to the microphone: "Thank you all, grandpas, grandmas, uncles, aunts, brothers, and sisters, for coming to my birthday party."
Then, changing the subject, "Where is Sister Ruan Mianmian? Abao wants to treat you to cake!"
Ruan Mianmian felt rather uncomfortable being surrounded by a group of elite men and women.
Because she really doesn't like this kind of socializing; being surrounded by people in social situations is somewhat painful for her.
Upon hearing Ah Bao call out like that, he immediately seized the opportunity to break out of the encirclement and walk towards Ah Bao.
As she walked toward the small stage, everyone moved aside along the way.
Immediately, gasps of surprise rose and fell from the crowd.
"Too beautiful!"
"My God, she's a hundred times prettier than she appears on TV!"
Everyone has seen Ruan Mianmian on TV, but seeing her in person now, everyone realizes that Ruan Mianmian on TV is far less beautiful than she is in real life.
To those present, her beauty was breathtaking.
From God's perspective, everyone sees Ruan Mianmian as a high-end custom-made face and figure, painstakingly captured by a top director and top photographer. Every frame is exquisitely beautiful, like a close-up in a movie.
This is the effect of Ruan Mianmian's cultivation.
When Abao saw the pretty older sister walking towards him, his face lit up with a smile, and he happily handed her the first piece of cake: "Sister, this is for you!"
Ruan Mianmian accepted A Bao's gift with a smile, thanked him, and handed him a refined mid-grade spirit stone pendant: "Happy birthday, A Bao. This is my birthday present for you."
It wasn't that she was unwilling to give him a high-quality or top-grade spirit stone pendant, but rather that such things looked too valuable, and that A Bao wearing such a fine item might easily bring trouble.
Although the pendant has a protective array, using the pendant meant to protect A Bao in the face of danger caused by the pendant would be like giving away the gift for nothing, and she certainly wouldn't be that foolish.
"It's so pretty, thank you, sister!" Abao happily took the pendant, hung it around her neck, and rubbed the little rabbit pendant with both hands.
He was born in the Year of the Rabbit, so naturally he loved the lifelike little rabbit pendant, not to mention it was a gift from a beautiful lady.
Some people around noticed this and secretly cursed inwardly, looking at Ruan Mianmian with more contempt.
In such a situation, to give a gift without even a gift box is indeed a sign of someone from a poor, lowly family who lacks manners.
Furthermore, the jade they gave as a gift was not a high-quality item at all; I don't know how they had the nerve to give it away.
Anyone with a modicum of manners would have covered it up with a gift box instead of making such a disgraceful gesture.
When Abao's parents saw it, their smiles froze slightly, but they didn't say anything in front of the guests. They just made up their minds to make Abao put the little rabbit pendant away as soon as they got back, and never let him wear it out.
It's beneath the dignity of the young master of the Zhang family to go out wearing such a broken piece of jade.
Ruan Mianmian has too many good things. Only the best ones are worthy of being put in boxes. The ordinary ones are just placed on the shelf of her storage ring. For example, the pendant she gave to A Bao was made in her spare time a few days ago when she was busy. She didn't have time to find a gift box, so naturally, it doesn't have a gift box packaging right now.
She didn't know what others thought of her, nor was she interested in knowing. Seeing that Ah Bao liked the gift, she smiled and greeted Zhang Zhiheng: "Hello, sir!"
She arrived a little late and was surrounded by people talking, so she didn't get a chance to greet Zhang Zhiheng right away. Now that she was in front of him, she naturally wouldn't be impolite again.
Zhang Zhiheng smiled kindly, "Good child, you too." He then glanced at Abao and laughed heartily at Ruan Mianmian, "Our Abao said earlier that she would give the first piece of cake to the person she admires most. I was wondering who it was, and it turns out it's you. Abao, tell Grandpa, why do you admire Sister Mianmian the most?"
I was inwardly praising Abao for being so helpful and looking forward to hearing more good things from him.
At such a young age, he unintentionally became so good at flattery. No wonder he is his good grandson!
Thinking of this, the old man's gaze swept over A Bao's pendant, revealing a deep sense of envy.
