Guan Rui and Guan Ziyao were stunned. What did...Lu Tingxiao mean…?
"What did Lu Tingxiao mean just now? Isn’t that woman just the adopted daughter abandoned by the Ning family?" Guan Rui frowned.
"It seems like she’s not adopted, she’s the biological daughter…" Guan Ziyao mumbled.
Guan Rui sneered, "Even if she’s from the Ning family, she’s nothing compared to you!"
"But according to what Lu Tingxiao said, it seems like the woman has some other more prestigious ident.i.ty..."
Guan Rui thought about it and a.s.sured, "I’ll investigate further later on, pay it no mind. That guy is still too young and he probably just wanted to irritate me plus oppose his family’s arrangement! In the whole of Imperial, how many people are there that the Lu family is not worthy of? There’s only a handful of them! And none of them could ever be related to Ning Xi!"
…
The dinner continued harmoniously and most of the crowd focused on the elusive Little Master of the Lu family. Some people even secretly hoped that the child would embarra.s.s himself out of their jealousy. To their chagrin, they were all disappointed as Little Treasure was really obedient after following Ning Xi. To everyone, there was no difference compared to a normal kid. His condition seemed to have stabilized after two years of treatment. If not, the Lu family would not have let him appear in public…
Aside from the Little Master of the Lu family, the other star of the night could only be the genius from the recently returned Guan family! As expected of a top student, he did not forget about his studies even during the dinner. He heard that some bright people were gathered here today, so he actually brought a few maths question that he was unable to solve. To his delight, some guests were interested and tried to solve the equations with him.
"Oh my gosh, is this really a middle school mathematics question? This is crazy! I pity students nowadays!"
"Hahaha, Mo Lingtian, you’re just an underachiever! You don’t even understand the questions. These are university-level questions, and they are at a compet.i.tive level!" someone mocked Mo Lingtian.
Mo Lingtian's mouth twitched. "Ugh, fine...it’s not the questions that are crazy, this top student from the Guan family is crazy!"
"Ah! I think I solved it! Is the answer to the first question -9?" a young teen with gla.s.ses asked eagerly.
Guan Zhichen replied expressionlessly as he shook his head, "Nope, the answer is 0."
"Ugh...I’m wrong again!" The young teen was disappointed.
"I’ve worked out the solution already. I can teach you, but I can’t solve the second question yet."
…
"Elder Guan! Your grandson is amazing!" A few guests were gawking at the group of brainiac kids, their eyes were full of envy.
Lu Chongshan praised the boy as well, "Like father, like son!"
Guan Rui shrugged helplessly. "He’s going to become a bookworm, I’m really having a headache about it! I brought him here to help him relax, yet now he even brought his questions up when I was not noticing!"
"Elder Guan, you should be glad! My kid at home would not even try to read even if I beat him up!"
"Can your kid compare to Elder Guan’s grandson? His IQ is 180 and he's already received several International Olympic Mathematics Awards at the age of ten…"
