Entwined by Dawn: The CEO's Relentless Obsession

Chapter 1004: 80th Birthday Banquet 25

Before Tian Tian could speak, Old Madam Mu led them forward, greeting those noblewomen while lowering her voice to talk to them.

"Haiyun is right, you haven’t seen this kind of scene before. No matter how tired you are today, you must endure it!"

Tian Tian silently scoffed to herself. Back when she was a little follower, she’d seen far more exhausting scenes than this, countless times. Although it wasn’t she walking the red carpet, she had to wait around!

Knowing that if she retorted, Old Madam Mu would have ten rebuttals ready, Tian Tian acted like she hadn’t heard.

Listening to Old Madam Mu repeatedly mention how excellent and outstanding Mu Haiyun was to those noblewomen, Tian Tian had no thoughts.

As for when she was mentioned, just like Grandpa said, it was simply brushed over, saying she had just returned to the country and had a lot to learn.

The way everyone looked at her versus Mu Haiyun was very different.

When they looked at Mu Haiyun, their eyes were full of envy and jealousy, thinking how fortunate the Mu Family was to have such a capable, beautiful, elegant, and graceful granddaughter.

As for her, their gaze was like they were examining cabbage at a market, full of criticism and dissatisfaction, some even unabashedly mocking her.

Tian Tian saw this and her smile became even brighter.

The more Tian Tian smiled brightly, as if nothing was wrong, the more Old Madam Mu burned inside.

She didn’t bring Tian Tian here with the sincere intent of introducing her to people, to make it easier for her to integrate into this circle later, but rather hoped Tian Tian could never integrate into this circle.

A wild girl from the countryside should return to the countryside to live. Such gatherings of high society women are not suitable for Tian Tian!

But surprisingly to Old Madam Mu, despite being scrutinized by so many eyes and occasionally mocked, Tian Tian not only didn’t get angry or show displeasure, but instead her smile became even sweeter and more adorable. How could Old Madam Mu not be angry?

Upon seeing her good friend Old Madam Shen, Old Madam Mu stopped and greeted Old Madam Shen with Tian Tian and others.

Old Madam Shen came specifically to greet her and also to see her daughter and niece.

Seeing Tian Tian immediately filled Old Madam Shen’s eyes with unconcealed contempt, as if looking at trash.

Thinking that such a look would make Tian Tian dissatisfied, who would have thought that Tian Tian, with a bright smile, greeted her as Old Madam Shen and then turned her gaze away, no longer looking at her.

Old Madam Shen didn’t even have a chance to mock her before the words stuck in her throat.

Seeing Old Madam Shen’s displeased expression, Old Madam Mu smiled inwardly, with some apology on her face.

"Shi Min, Tian Tian has just returned to the country, doesn’t understand much, don’t take it out on a child."

Old Madam Shen’s surname is Shu, called Shu Shimin.

The Shu Family is a family of military doctors. Many years ago they intermarried with the Shen Family. Being spoiled from a young age, Old Madam Shen, Shu Shimin, is arrogant, used to looking down on people.

Old Madam Mu also has the same arrogant demeanor, and since the two families have a fairly good relationship, Old Madam Mu comes from the Song Family, although not as renowned as the Shu Family, Old Madam Mu is habitually flattering Shu Shimin, thus they became close friends.

Listening to Old Madam Mu’s words, Old Madam Shen’s face looked even worse.

"Such a girl could actually be a child of your Mu Family, Huanfang’s granddaughter, truly surprising!"
