Chapter 1405 - 1404: Tang Xiaobai's Birthday
Five tables mean fifty family clan sects, and Tang Rao only invited two tables; the turnout far exceeded his expectations.No wonder the family is in such a frenzy, not even having time to blame Tang Rao.
"Dear friends and family, sorry to keep you waiting, I just found some wild game to entertain everyone, so I was delayed on the way, please forgive me."
Tang Rao, in front of everyone, pulled out two perfectly seasoned roasted whole lambs from the Space Ring.
"This is it! Today we're having roast lamb to make sure you all eat well, drink well, and have a great time."
Everyone who has a good relationship with Tang Rao has heard of the roasted whole lamb, and has likely mooched off a meal at Tang Rao's place; this roast lamb and beer are hailed as the greatest invention in the Divine Realm, and Tang Rao has not yet publicly admitted that this stuff didn't originate from the Divine Realm.
"Brother Tang Rao, we haven't seen you around, we thought you were joking with me, it's Xiao Bai's birthday, as uncles, we must celebrate properly today."
Anyone who can associate with Tang Rao has a similar personality to him; Tang Rao exchanged greetings with everyone and praised the skills in skewering lamb and roasting whole lamb.
"Sheng Xuan, since it's Xiao Bai's birthday, bring him out to meet the uncles and get familiar."
Everyone understands Tang Rao's intention, ostensibly it's a celebration, but he actually wants these uncles to know this is Tang Rao's son, Tang Xiaobai, and wants them to look out for him.
None of those present are fools, they're happy to agree to Tang Rao's proposal.
Li Shengxuan returned to the room to bring Tang Xiaobai, and for the first time facing such a big scene, Tang Xiaobai was more curious than timid.
"Is this your son?"
Tang Xiaobai was dressed in warm underwear, the latest model, self-heating; in the Divine Realm, where it's either mink or gold that people wear, seeing Tang Xiaobai's 'humble' style of dress, several times they wanted to propose to Tang Rao to cover the child's future clothing.
"This is my undeniable son, and if there's any doubt, I'll pay tenfold compensation."
Tang Rao's bold reply stunned everyone present.
No one would bother to investigate whom Tang Rao had outside to birth a child, it's easier to take his word for it.
"Tang Rao, you really are joking more and more, your own child could hardly be anyone else's, right?"
Wen Jun joked with Tang Rao, and nobody took his over-the-top words to heart.
"Old buddy, why didn't Wen Lei come, is he grounded again?"
Lately, Tang Rao heard from Wen Lei that his dad grounded him for at least a week for messing around in paradise, before releasing him.
Messing around in paradise is actually permissible, his mistake was messing with Wen Jun's favorite one.
Of course, that's a later story, Tang Rao only knew about it when Wen Jun complained later on.
"This spoiled brat is getting out of hand, you were right last time - children need more management, can't be left unchecked, your words made a lot of sense, so I tried your education concept."
What?
When did Tang Rao tell Wen Jun any educational philosophy nonsense?
He doesn't even have time to manage Tang Xiaobai, let alone other families' unruly sons.
"Old buddy, are you sure I said that? Are these profound and insightful words really not your own, but came from my mouth?"
Tang Rao gave Wen Jun a chance, but he never intended on taking it.
He kept looking at Tang Rao with sincere eyes, crediting him with all the success.
"That's right, absolutely correct, it was your words, I still remember, where would I come up with such things?"
Wow, is Tang Rao really going to take the blame for this?
"Well, though I'd rather not admit I never said that, since you're insisted I did, I can't refute it, let's just say I said it."
Tang Rao shrugged, his face written with two repeated words - helplessness.
"Look, fellow dads, how high Brother Tang Rao's awareness is, if I had such insight, my son wouldn't be neglecting his cultivation, Brother Tang Rao, can you give us some tips?"
Tang Rao knew that once he acknowledged it, many would follow, thinking he was an exceptional being, that whatever he said was right.
"The roast lamb's ready, the food's ready, eat first, let's not talk grievances, our common purpose here is to celebrate my son's birthday, enjoy the food and drink, don't stray off topic."
It seemed impossible to dig up some news from Tang Rao today.
"Brother Tang Rao, I heard you're joining the Business Alliance?"
Fan Hua, one of the referees, came second; he's always laid-back, but seizing a chance to speak with Tang Rao isn't easy, otherwise he would have asked privately.
"I thought it was a secret, turns out everyone knows!"
This Family Head Liu is no easy character, Tang Rao hasn't agreed yet, and he's already stirred up interest to promote his Business Alliance.
"Really, I just heard the news, but you all know?"
The words Business Alliance attracted everyone present.
"We just heard, and found it interesting, don't overthink it."
Fan Hua's character, Tang Rao roughly understood, never liked participating in worldly activities, except to be a referee in talent selection events, he would abstain from other topics.
Since Fan Hua couldn't resist asking such a question, it means it's very important to him.
"No worries, you're my friend, I'll answer anything you say, there's no secrets between us."
Tang Rao's straightforward manner made people feel good, suddenly they felt the need to deepen their relationship with him.
"I saved Family Head Liu's life, and saved the Business Alliance too, so he invited me to join it, though I'm still considering, not yet decided, do you have any good advice?"
Since Fan Hua asked about the Business Alliance, he must have certain knowledge of it.
"I want to join."
Fan Hua unapologetically expressed his intent.
This reduced mutual suspicion between him and Tang Rao.
"Ten years ago, due to unpleasantness with the An Family, every time I applied to join, they suppressed it."
Fan Hua felt ten years ago was already ripe for joining the Business Alliance, and if not for the An Family, he would already be quite prominent within.
"I wasn't aware the An Family held such power, quite surprising."
