Meng Si’s expression changed for a moment when she saw Mrs. Tao. Then, she smiled again. “Good afternoon, Mrs. Tao!”

“Miss Meng, it’s been a long time.” Tao Yan’s mother smiled and greeted her. Meng Si hated Mother Tao. Why? Meng Si’s mother and Mother Tao were competitors. They were both socialites in the Capital back then, and after they got married, they were also noble ladies. There was indeed competition between them in every aspect.

For example, Mother Tao had won the title of the Capital’s most beautiful woman, and Meng Si’s mother was about to win the title of the Capital’s most talented woman.

“I heard the noise from afar.” Mrs. Tao stood in front of the children and said in a very serious tone, “Today is my husband’s 50th birthday. It’s a very important day. We invited you here to celebrate my husband’s birthday and to build a relationship with everyone. If you cause trouble here, please leave!”

“We’re just exchanging a few words with the young masters and young ladies of the Tao family in a friendly manner. We don’t have any other intentions,” Meng Si said. “It was my sister’s fault last time, but they were the ones who rejected our apologies.”

Mrs. Tao knew that Meng Si’s apology was definitely not sincere, but she didn’t want to dwell on this issue today. The banquet was about to start, and she couldn’t waste her energy here.

“We’ll talk about the apology later. Now, let’s invite Eldest Miss Meng and Second Miss Meng to take their seats!” Mrs. Tao extended her hand and made an inviting gesture.

Meng Si didn’t insist anymore. She directly brought Meng Xiao into the venue.

Although Tan Rou was angry, she knew that now was not the time to teach the Meng sisters a lesson.

“Mom, this is the trophy that my sister went to get today.” Tao Zheng opened the bag he had been carrying and showed it to his mother.

Originally, Tan Rou had planned to show her parents the trophy and certificate after her birthday, but Tao Zhi said that her trophy could be used as a birthday present for her father, so Tan Rou brought her bag over.

Upon hearing that Tan Rou had won the trophy, Meng Si and Meng Xiao stopped entering the venue. They stood not far away from Tan Rou to see what kind of trophy she had brought back.

“Show your trophy to your dad later. He’ll definitely be happy.” Mrs. Tao smiled.

Meng Xiao had learned from Tao Yue that Tan Rou was an idiot who only knew how to fight and did not know how to study at all. Therefore, when she heard that Tan Rou had won an award, she subconsciously thought that it was some small award. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“What trophy did you get? It can’t be the ‘Best Female Gangster’ award, right?” Meng Xiao asked.

Meng Si didn’t stop Meng Xiao from talking nonsense because she had heard about Tan Ron’s past. She heard that she had a messy private life and was a female hooligan who didn’t study hard.

Tao Zheng took out the trophy from his bag and handed it to Tan Rou. Tan Rou took it and showed it to Mrs. Tao. “This is the trophy and certificate for the first place. The prize money hasn’t been transferred to our account yet.”

“Your hard work for so many days has finally paid off.”

Tan Rou smiled and said embarrassedly, “Actually, it wasn’t that hard.”

Meng Xiao leaned over and stretched her neck to look at the words on the trophy. “What award is it?”

Tan Rou glanced at her and said coldly, “The Gold medal of the National Physics Competition.”

Mrs. Tao placed the trophy under Meng Xiao’s eyes. “Can you even read?”

Of course, Meng Xiao could read, but she didn’t understand how Tan Rou could get first place. Shouldn’t Tao Yue get first place? After the physics competition ended, Tao Yue kept hinting that she was first. Meng Xiao thought Tao Yue had already seen the results.

“How can you be first?” Meng Xiao did not believe it. “You must have made this fake trophy yourself!”

Tan Rou was speechless. Was there a need for her to make a fake trophy to deceive people? If she faked it, with so many people present, as long as someone watched the live broadcast, they would be able to expose the fake trophy.

“It’s not fake, right?” A girl who looked like a high school student whispered, “I watched the live broadcast the entire morning. When the first place was announced, I saw it too. The first place is indeed Tan Rou. There’s even a photo of her next to it. If you don’t believe me, you can take a look on your phone.” “Shouldn’t the first place be Yue Yue? She told me that she would definitely get first place!” Meng Xiao asked.

“Who is Yueyue?” someone asked.

“Tao Yue?” One of them answered.

“So who is the first place?” All of a sudden, everyone present was involved in the conversation..
