After playing outdoors, Le Bao took the children indoors.

In one corner of the hall, Lu Jianguo had cordoned off an area early on, which was filled with toys piled up like a small mountain.

"Wow, it's a Transformer, Le Bao! Can I play with it?"

Robots for boys, dolls for girls, you name it.

Le Bao looked at the robot that a male classmate was holding; she didn't think she had ever played with one before.

She instinctively wanted to say no, but as the words reached her lips, she remembered what her mother had said:

"Baby, you're the host today, so you need to take good care of your little guest. Therefore, you can't take things from your friends today; it's polite, understand?"

"Okay."

Le Bao nodded painfully; she would wait until he was done before playing.

"Le Bao, you're so generous! My little brother never lets me play with these things at home."

When she heard other children praising her, the little one immediately puffed out her chest, beaming with pride.

A group of children rushed into the toy section, and some even got into arguments over a single toy.

As the little master, Le Bao fully demonstrated her master's authority and easily resolved everyone's conflicts.

The birthday party officially began at 12 noon.

Lu Jianguo led Le Bao to the front of the stage, followed closely by Lu Chenyue and Shen Wanning, with Lu Feng's family following behind.

The conversation stopped, and Lu Jianguo not only introduced his beloved granddaughter, but also emphasized Shen Wanning, the second daughter-in-law of the Lu family.

The people below were all unfamiliar with this name. Considering that there seemed to be no wealthy family with the surname Shen in City A, they all speculated about this person's identity.

Seeing the people gossiping, Shen Shilan couldn't help but want to step forward and defend her sister, but was stopped by her older brother, Shen Xizhou.

"Don't be impatient."

He believed that the Lu family would not let his sister suffer any injustice.

Sure enough, the next second, Lu Jianguo's voice rang out again:

"My Lu family is extremely honored to have two such outstanding daughters-in-law. Their coming to our family is truly a step down for them. You are all probably familiar with my eldest daughter-in-law, but today I want to focus on introducing my youngest daughter-in-law, the daughter of the Shen family in Hong Kong—Shen Wanning!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than the crowd erupted in heated discussion once again.

"The Shen family of Hong Kong? The richest family in Hong Kong?"

"Is the Shen family of Gangcheng very famous?"

"Holy crap, she's actually Shen Shilan's sister?"

"..."

The Shen family is not very well-known on the mainland, but those who know them understand that their status in Hong Kong is no less than that of the Lu family in City A.

Although the Shen family does not hold political power, they have a lawyer named Shen Shilan who has connections in both the legal and illegal worlds. He is a legend in the legal profession and has never lost a case since his debut.

His reputation even surpassed that of his business genius elder brother, Shen Xizhou, at one point.

After Lu Jianguo finished speaking, he invited his in-laws to come up on stage.

When Shen Shilan spoke into the microphone, both married and unmarried people below fluttered their hearts.

"Hello everyone, I am Shen Shilan, Shen Wanning's second brother, and Le Bao's uncle. Wanning and Le Bao are both treasures of our Shen family. No matter what, we will always be there for you."

This was undoubtedly a warning to the Lu family and everyone present: their Shen family's precious child was not someone anyone could bully. Before you mess with them, consider the power behind them.

Now, all the doubts that had been raised before have completely disappeared, leaving only naked envy, jealousy, and hatred.

After he finished speaking, several waiters pushed in a cake that was more than ten layers high.

The children present exclaimed in surprise upon seeing such a huge cake, broke free from their parents' hands, and gathered in front of the cake.

Shen Wanning put a birthday hat on Le Bao's head, and with the pianist playing, the whole audience sang "Happy Birthday" to the little guy.

"Baby, close your eyes and make a wish."

"Is making a wish like Sen Yao?"

The little guy looked at his mother with a blank expression.

"Making a wish is hoping that what you want to do or get will come true on your birthday."

After listening to her mother's explanation, Le Bao knew what she needed to wish for.

The little guy put his hands together, closed his eyes, and said loudly:

"I want to eat lots and lots of candy, I don't want to go to school, I don't want to..."

A burst of laughter erupted in the lobby, and Shen Wanning quickly covered the little one's mouth.

"Alright, alright, that's enough."

If this goes on, who knows what shocking things this chubby boy will say?

"Mommy, I'm still slurping, I haven't finished yet."

Le Bao pried her mother's hands off, indicating that she still had many wishes to express.

"You've already said it twice. Saying it more won't work anymore. Come on, let's eat cake."

Shen Wanning put the cake knife into Le Bao's hand, and Lu Chenyue picked her up. The three of them used Le Bao's little hand to make a cut on the bottom of the big cake.

When the utility knife was taken out, it was covered in a lot of cream. The chubby boy immediately put it in his mouth and licked it. After only two licks, Lu Chenyue took it away.

"Dad will cut it for you."

The little guy, with cream still stuck to the corners of his mouth, stared at Lu Chenyue's hand without blinking, just like a group of tiny toddlers.

Seeing this, Shen Wanning called over a few servants to help distribute the cake to the children.

The little ones who received their cakes immediately buried themselves in their work, and soon the entire hall was filled with little guys with their faces covered in cakes.

It's unclear when it started, but the little ones began attacking people with cakes.

At first, it was just playful fighting between children, with each of them smearing the other with their own fingers, nothing serious.

After all, their parents had told them not to be naughty before they came.

But when they saw Le Bao chasing Shen Shilan with cream, the mischievous side of the little guy was also activated.

They started imitating Le Bao, attacking adults they knew, such as their parents.

Then, Le Bao was furious after being retaliated against by her uncle. She summoned her brother Lu Shulang, her best friend Rou Rou, her loyal protector Yu Muchen, and her good friend Le Le.

Several children chased after Shen Shilan, surrounding and blocking him.

As expected, when Le Bao's underlings saw their leader being bullied, they all abandoned attacking others and turned to attack Shen Shilan instead.

When facing Le Bao alone, Shen Shilan was in complete control and could even counterattack Le Bao; when facing several little ones, he could easily dodge; when he saw a group of little ones running towards him, he thought to himself, this is bad.

He dodged and jumped around, but with the help of Lu Yifan and Shen An, the little guys finally managed to capture him.

Shen Shilan, who was being relentlessly humiliated by a group of kids, never dreamed that he, a lawyer with connections in both the legal and illegal worlds, would one day be humiliated by a bunch of little brats, and that he would be completely powerless to resist.

At first, the children's parents were worried about what would happen if Shen Shilan got angry, but they were relieved when they saw that the two eldest grandsons of the Lu and Shen families had come down to the scene.

They should thank Shen Shilan for diverting the children's attention, otherwise they might have been the ones to suffer.

After the banquet, Le Bao was having so much fun that she wouldn't let the other children leave and wanted to keep playing.

The children, who were also having a great time, didn't want to leave and cried loudly, but were eventually forcibly taken away by their parents.

Shen Shilan emerged covered in handprints, footprints, and cream, prompting everyone to secretly take out their phones and turn on their cameras.
