Could He Be Young Master Wen's Lover?

"Although the Zhong Household head only had one daughter, he also had a younger brother. That brother had a grandson about your age, who was also a celebrity and usually rather scatterbrained."

Thinking about it, it was probably him.

Since it was not because of anything else, the three Wen men finally breathed a sigh of relief.

But Wen Chengze still felt something was off as he looked at those things. "I wasn't even injured. These gifts are too valuable. We should find a way to return them."

"Of course. We'll return them after this period has passed. The Lineage gathering is coming up soon, and having close dealings with the Zhong Household right now isn't a good thing." Father Wen considered his words.

"Mm."

Because of this interruption, Wen Chengze no longer had the mood to keep watching television downstairs. He had indeed grown tired from shopping today, so after telling his father and older brother, he went upstairs.

The aftereffects of that first day of shopping left Wen Chengze without leaving the house again until the day of the Zhong Household banquet.

The banquet was set for eight in the evening. The Wen father and sons had no desire to attend early and put on an act of scheming and deceiving with that crowd. Besides, their younger son did not like crowded occasions, so they simply arrived later.

The family did not arrive until ten minutes before the banquet began.

Father Wen and Mother Wen walked ahead, with their two sons following behind.

The Wen Household had not been as prosperous as it was now a few years ago. But later, Wen Chenglin joined the company. Young people had drive, and Father Wen had keenly sensed that the future might change. That was how the Wen Household attained its current status.

At least two-thirds of those present knew the Wen Household's name.

From the moment they entered the hall, quite a few gazes fell upon them.

Wen Chengze's hand at his side began trembling faintly again, and his lips pressed together more tightly.

"Up front are President Wen and Madam Wen. Behind them is Young Master Wen. Who's the person beside Young Master Wen?"

"He's so pretty. Could he be Young Master Wen's lover?" someone said with a teasing glint in his eyes.

"Probably not. What kind of place is this? Would President Wen let his son fool around like that? Not to mention he brought a man with him. How embarrassing."

Quite a few people at the banquet were whispering among themselves.

Wen Chengze was not the least bit curious about what they were saying. He only hoped the banquet would end sooner, so he could form an initial impression of these people and know how to deal with them in the future.

Since Wen Chengze had not formally taken part in the company's affairs, Father Wen did not force him to socialize and simply told him to go amuse himself for a while.

Wen Chenglin did remind him, "This is the Zhong Household's villa. Don't wander around."

Wen Chengze nodded. Right now, he only wanted to find somewhere to catch his breath.

After looking around, Wen Chengze spotted a windowsill in a secluded corner. There was a sofa there, but no one was sitting on it.

After all, everyone came to this sort of banquet with the purpose of socializing. Who would run off to a corner for no reason?

But to Wen Chengze, this place was truly a treasure.

He casually took a glass of champagne and sat down.

Through the clear champagne, Wen Chengze surveyed the banquet hall.

He had noticed as soon as he entered that this villa covered at least three times the area of an ordinary villa. But he had also observed that this was probably not where the Zhong Household normally lived, since the place seemed to lack any warmth or life.

No wonder they were a super Aristocratic Clan. Such a villa was used solely for entertaining guests.

Wen Chengze took a small sip of champagne, his gaze continuing to sweep across the room.

He had not been idle these past two days. At the very least, he had looked into the current circumstances of the various Lineages.

Wen Chengze was recalling the situations of each Lineage and had no idea that someone on the villa's second floor was watching him.

"Cousin, look! Isn't that the boy from that day?!"
