Chapter 214: Heading to the Tang Family
Chen Tianlong didn’t continue asking Lin Wushuang any more questions; after all, he was just a bodyguard, and completing the task was enough.
Soon, Chen Tianlong’s BMW X6 slowly drove out of the South Sea No.1 Middle School gates. The old security guard habitually opened the gate, recognizing the car. He knew exactly who was inside—Miss Lin from the Lin Family. How could he dare be negligent?
After the car exited the school gate, Lin Wushuang began to speak to Chen Tianlong in front in a nonchalant manner: "Chen Tianlong, we’re going to the Tang Family. Today is my fellow student from No. 2 Middle School, Tang Xiaoyan’s birthday party."
"The Tang Family?"
Chen Tianlong was taken aback. He knew a friend named Tang Bing. He wondered if it was the same Tang Family that Lin Wushuang was talking about.
"Is there a problem? Hurry up and drive. If we’re late, who knows how Tang Xiaoyan will mock us." Lin Wushuang pouted and said.
Whenever she thought of Tang Xiaoyan’s arrogant demeanor, she felt a surge of anger.
Tang Xiaoyan and she were classmates in middle school. Tang Xiaoyan was the class monitor, while she was the academic officer. But every time, Lin Wushuang’s grades would surpass Tang Xiaoyan’s, causing some minor conflicts between them, preventing them from being good friends.
However, even so, they still kept in touch often. At that age, it was all about competition; there was no real animosity.
Now, two years had passed in a blink, and this time Tang Xiaoyan called her up, inviting the two girl friends over, so Lin Wushuang had no choice but to accept the invitation.
If she didn’t go, people would say she was afraid of her.
This time, they were not competing over grades or who was wealthier, but rather... who had the cooler bodyguard!
If Chen Tianlong found out about this, he would definitely be speechless. Geez, calling me over just to see who’s cooler—is it really necessary?
Chen Tianlong gave a wry smile. According to the navigation, it was about twenty minutes to the Tang Family Mansion, and soon, they arrived at the entrance.
It wasn’t as lively as the Zhang Family’s earlier, after all, it was just a regular birthday, not a match-making event or business gathering.
Most of the people invited by Tang Xiaoyan were her good friends, good buddies, and some classmates she liked to hang out with.
Of course, she also invited some classmates she had conflicts with. This way, she could boast a bit at this birthday party because her brother had gotten her a badass bodyguard, rumored to be a young soldier who recently retired.
Not only was he tall and handsome, but also skilled in martial arts, even her brother Tang Bing couldn’t match him.
So, driven by intense competitiveness, Tang Xiaoyan, who hadn’t been in contact for the past two years, invited Lin Wushuang again along with some of her good friends. Everyone, hearing about the bodyguard competition, spent a lot to hire a professional to impersonate, hoping to earn the admiration of others in this rivalry.
"Excuse me, are you here to attend our lady’s birthday party?"
The gatekeeper was a man in his fifties, responsible for the security of the Tang Family. Seeing the three young people dressed so luxuriously, he got a rough idea of the situation.
"Yes, uncle, we’re here for Miss Tang’s party."
Lin Wushuang quickly replied.
"Haha, then come in. It seems everyone else has arrived too." The old security guard said.
The group nodded and didn’t delay further, directly entering the Tang Family Mansion.
Upon entering, there wasn’t much movement at first; however, at this moment, a servant approached and said, "Are you here for the lady’s birthday party? Please follow me!"
Immediately, the three followed, bypassing the large villa in front, and walked further inside.
At this point, they finally heard some noise from the front. Approaching closer, they realized that a party was indeed being held.
This was a small villa specifically for Tang Xiaoyan’s use. Although called small, it still had three floors, each at over two hundred square meters.
Thus, the entire hall appeared quite spacious, just perfect for holding a party.
At this moment, the hall was brightly lit, with music and laughter intertwining, creating a very boisterous atmosphere.
Chen Tianlong frowned slightly. He evidently didn’t like this kind of setting, after all, such parties by wealthy people were just for showing off to make themselves look affluent and capable.
Walking into the hall, they saw a group of men and women drinking and chatting, some even flirting. Had Chen Tianlong not seen them enter through the Tang Family gate, he would have thought they mistakenly walked into a bar.
"Wow, isn’t that the beauty Wushuang? Hey, all you handsome guys, go greet her quickly."
Suddenly, a high-pitched female voice rang out, followed by a stunning woman walking out from the crowd. She was tall, wearing red high heels, and her face was evidently heavily made up, looking unnaturally fair.
Wearing a sexy strap dress with a short hem, exposing a section of her fair thigh. It was hard to tell if it was natural or enhanced, but she was definitely impressive, not losing to Lu Xiaoyu at all.
Seeing this, Chen Tianlong couldn’t help but swallow, and this action was just caught by Lu Xiaoyu, who leaned over and said, "Chen Tianlong ge, there’s no need to drool. Let me tell you, hers are fake. Last year, they were just two small tangerines. Xiaoyu’s are the real deal!"
"..."
Chen Tianlong was speechless; Lu Xiaoyu was indeed formidable. To speak like this to a big man like him? Didn’t she know it could provoke crime?
Sure enough, after hearing this, Chen Tianlong couldn’t resist glancing at Lu Xiaoyu’s front.
"Come on, Tianlong ge, you can’t see anything now. Next time I’ll wear something looser, and you can take a good look, okay?" Lu Xiaoyu remained just as formidable.
Chen Tianlong was utterly defeated, blushing unconsciously, then he earnestly looked ahead: "Ahem, Xiaoyu, don’t talk nonsense, there are so many people here."
"Oh, don’t mind these people, they’re just a bunch of pretentious folks, all just showing off."
Lu Xiaoyu seemed to see through the situation and didn’t care about the people around, but followed Lin Wushuang straight ahead.
At this time, Tang Xiaoyan had also arrived in front of Lin Wushuang, with two handsome guys following her behind.
"Wushuang, long time no see."
"Long time no see!"
Facing Tang Xiaoyan’s welcoming smile, Lin Wushuang didn’t quite know what this girl was up to, but it felt a bit strange.
"This is my boyfriend and bodyguard, Cao Meng."
Tang Xiaoyan began introducing the handsome guy beside her.
"My boyfriend is so considerate. As soon as he got discharged a few days ago, he came straight to see me, insisting on being my personal bodyguard, and even gave me a sports car. I really don’t know how to repay him!"
Lin Wushuang was about to speak when she was interrupted by Tang Xiaoyan.
"Hehe, is this Miss Chen? I almost didn’t recognize you. I think I saw you in South Korea a while ago. No wonder your face is so pretty!"
Suddenly, a female voice cut in from the side. It was Lai Xiaofei, Tang Xiaoyan’s close friend.
