Chapter 697: Boss Qin
Tong Yue nodded slightly, sat obediently in her seat, and behaved herself, just like Si Yang at her side, who also didn’t fidget.
Looking around, aside from Han Enzhen and Tong Yao, no one else had brought children. In this era, it was rare for anyone attending a high-class banquet to bring their children, fearing that they might misbehave and damage the hosts’ impression of them.
After all, most of them attended this event to network and get familiar with others.
To their surprise, seeing Tong Yao arrive with her children puzzled them. It’s either the person didn’t know the ropes, or they had a close relationship with Han Enzhen or Fu Sen. As they watched Han Enzhen approach Tong Yao several times to chat, they deduced it was the latter.
Some people even recognized that Tong Yao had attended Han Enzhen’s art exhibitions and wedding ceremonies. They speculated about her background but found that no one in the circle of wealthy ladies knew her.
Some people tried to probe Han Enzhen about Tong Yao’s identity, but they only received vague responses that Tong Yao was a good friend of Han Enzhen.
Although they couldn’t work out Tong Yao’s background, they were certain that she had a good relationship with Han Enzhen and knew Fu Sen. Noticing that the hosts were too busy to entertain them, some came up to introduce themselves to Tong Yao and get friendly with her.
Tong Yao, guessing their motives, politely yet distantly responded to them.
Although Si Yang and Tong Yue were young, they too noticed these people intentionally trying to become friendly with Tong Yao, somewhat attempting to ingratiate themselves with her.
When there was a moment of peace, Tong Yue leaned in, whispering to Tong Yao, "Mommy, why do all these people want to curry favor with you? Are we very rich?"
