The Peerless Beauty Stuck With Me

Chapter 1341 - 1340: Lavish Generosity

The gifts from ordinary guests are taken away at the entrance, while the gifts from slightly more prominent guests need to be personally handed over to the host.When Tang Rao entered, the official at the door initially wanted to collect Tang Rao's gift, but Tang Rao blocked it with one hand.

"The item in this box is extremely precious. If you take it and something happens, not even ten lives could compensate for it."

With just one sentence, Tang Rao scared the official so much that he dared not touch Tang Rao's belongings again.

"Thank you, Tang Family Master, but may I ask what this is?"

Describing the Zhang Family Master as straightforward might not be an exaggeration. Even if Tang Rao doesn't know how to use cosmetics from the Divine Realm, he is roughly familiar with modern items like Chanel's skincare and makeup. The Zhang Family Master, unfamiliar with modern things, has at least some exposure to Divine Realm cosmetics.

To think he claims to love his wife dearly, it seems what he sees isn't necessarily true.

Tang Rao enjoys discovering truth from subtle details, and those moments of discovery are when he is the happiest.

"Don't you know? When I watched live broadcasts in Illusion City, I always wanted to get the items shown. This is called makeup. Besides the premium Divine Realm cosmetics that the Family Head gifted, his makeup is even more priceless, and I absolutely love it."

Saying in front of the Zhang Family Master how great Tang Rao is and how much she loves the gifts from him was enough to make the Zhang Family Master feel envious.

"Thank you, Tang Family Master, for your efforts for my wife's birthday, and thanks to the ladies of the Tang Family."

With two sentences, his smile still remained 'sincere and flawless'.

"You're welcome. I don't know much about these things either. It's my wife who went through a lot of trouble for these items. As long as the Zhang Family Master and Mrs. Zhang like them, it's all good."

All these years, was Mrs. Zhang really happy? Tang Rao didn't know. Seeing Mrs. Zhang smile, Tang Rao realized the Zhang Family Master's kindness to his wife wasn't without reason. At least, despite her age, she could still maintain herself so well.

Unlike Tang Rao, the Zhang Family Master wasn't as attentive, which is the real reason he couldn't truly reach into Mrs. Zhang's heart.

"Tang Family Master, please take a seat; the banquet is about to begin."

The Zhang Family Master still had requests for Tang Rao right now, so he spoke politely. If he gets what he wants, would he just discard Tang Rao with a kick? That's something to see based on the Zhang Family Master's mood later on.

Zhang Yuqi's mouth was twisted in anger. His hard-prepared demon beast skin was torn by his uncle. Not only that, his uncle, in front of Tang Rao and so many people, didn't give Zhang Yuqi any face. How will Zhang Yuqi manage to get by in the future?

Even his own father hadn't spoken so harshly to Zhang Yuqi.

"Big Brother, why aren't you going in to take a seat? Still watching here? Didn't you say you had a good show planned earlier? Has the good show been canceled?"

A boy who usually got along well with Zhang Yuqi, trailing behind him, emerged from somewhere, leaned against Zhang Yuqi, and sneaked glances at the seated guests.

"Nonsense, the good show hasn't even started yet. I'll see how far Tang Rao can still show off later."

For today, Zhang Yuqi put in a lot of effort. He planned to tarnish the reputation of Zhang Yishan's family of three and Tang Rao's reputation, to see if Tang Rao could still be arrogant in the future.

"Great plan from Big Brother. It's certainly not something we underlings could think of. I'm looking forward to seeing the good show Big Brother has prepared."

The flattery hit the spot, and the burning anger in Zhang Yuqi's heart was completely extinguished by the lackey's few words.

"Just wait and see."

Now is the beginning of Zhang Yuqi's great show.

The entire banquet hall was decorated with Purple Perilla, giving Tang Rao the feeling of witnessing someone's wedding ceremony.

To think people of such age still fancy the little romances of youth.

The music played in the banquet hall, and dancers appeared wearing thin clothes, singing or dancing.

Tang Rao had never attended Mrs. Zhang's previous birthday banquets and didn't know if every year was the same. The so-called celebration seemed to just go through the motions, and it was doubtful if there was genuine excitement inside.

"Thank you all for attending my wife's birthday banquet. Today, I heard that my son prepared a surprise for my wife. Before the banquet begins, I would like to give the time to my son, to let him start the banquet."

Zhang Yishan must have informed the Zhang Family Master beforehand, which is why he left such a segment.

"Thank you, Dad."

Zhang Yishan bowed to the Zhang Family Master and then walked onto the stage.

"First, I want to thank Dad for giving me this opening time. As your child, I first wish Mother a happy birthday, wishing her longevity as enduring as the southern mountains."

Zhang Yishan bowed to Mrs. Zhang once again.

Mrs. Zhang was finally moved, looking at the child she had raised since young, dearer than blood relations.

"Child, there is no need for such formalities."

No need for so many rituals, it's the thought that counts.

"Mother, this is a seventh-grade Youthful Appearance Pill that I obtained from a master, gifted to you in hopes that you will like it."

Gasp!

A seventh-grade Youthful Appearance Pill!

Everyone incredulously looked at the silk box Zhang Yishan took out. In a large box, there was only one elixir pill. Even with just one pill, its value should be obvious to any sensible elder present.

"Young Master Zhang, is that really a seventh-grade Youthful Appearance Pill in your hand?"

Seventh-grade elixirs are rare in the Divine Realm. If any exist, they've already been snatched by hidden aristocratic families. The Zhang family's strength isn't above others. Their authority lacks authority, and their wealth lacks Purple Crystal. How could they procure a seventh-grade elixir?

"Of course, it's real."

Tang Rao wouldn't deceive Zhang Yishan; there's no benefit for Tang Rao to lie to him.

"What if it's fake?"

Now that the seventh-grade elixir is in Mrs. Zhang's hands, she knows its value just from the scent. When she heard it was seventh-grade, her hands holding the elixir tightened noticeably.

Even a single seventh-grade elixir is enough to make two families fight. To avoid making those families envious, Mrs. Zhang needs to be cautious.

"In elixir appraisal, the one with the most authority should be the owner behind Kao Shan Shop, the leader of the Kao Shan Sect, Tang Rao. I just saw Tang Rao attending Mrs. Zhang's birthday banquet. Why not let Tang Rao appraise it for everyone?"

That's right; if Tang Rao isn't capable of elixir appraisal, then who is?

"Tang Family Master, what do you think?"

With so many people fawning over Tang Rao, he had no way out. At first glance, it seemed fine, but after careful thought, including the questions, this matter was anything but ordinary.

"There's no need for appraisal. The seventh-grade Youthful Appearance Pill in Young Master Zhang's hand was my gift to him, out of recognition for his filial piety."

Wow!

To bestow such an elixir simply out of recognition for Zhang Yishan's filial devotion—such generosity is truly remarkable.
