"I want to stay with you anyway, so you can't chase me away!" Tang Keke's lips were pouted so much that a soy sauce bottle could almost be hung on them. She hugged Tang Li's arm and shook her left and right in a coquettish manner.
"...Forget it." Tang Li poked Tang Keke's smooth forehead helplessly and said unhappily: "Anyway, I don't know anyone here, so I can only let you, a popular little queen, accompany me as an air person."
“Hehe…” Hearing this, Tang Keke raised her head proudly and said smugly, “It doesn’t matter if you don’t know me. With a little diva like me around, it won’t be long before someone will come looking for you…”
"Eh? Isn't this Xiaoli?"
Hmm? Someone came to me so soon?
That shouldn't be the case. Although she is a little diva, in terms of celebrity status at the banquet, she is not someone who would be noticed immediately.
Moreover, the place where they were standing now was in the corner of the banquet, the least conspicuous position.
What's more...it seemed like the person who came didn't call her name?
Tang Keke looked in the direction with some confusion and found that it was an elderly man. He was wearing a well-fitting suit, his light gray hair was combed back, his equally gray beard was trimmed into a delicate shape, his back was straight, and he looked energetic.
This made Tang Keke even more confused. Her fan base consisted entirely of young people, and it was basically impossible for a particularly elegant elderly wealthy fan to suddenly emerge.
Could this old man be here to look for Old Tang?
As if to verify her guess, Tang Li blinked and suddenly smiled in surprise.
"Grandpa Qin, what a coincidence! I didn't expect to meet you here!"
"Oh my, it's really Xiaoli. I haven't seen you for almost a week. When are you going to play chess with Grandpa again?"
The old man called Grandpa Qin suddenly smiled like a blooming chrysanthemum, and even the wrinkles on his face were reduced a lot.
When the young man following him saw this smile, his expression suddenly changed, and he looked at Tang Li with awe involuntarily.
Perhaps it was because the old man's voice was too loud, Xiao Li's words immediately attracted a lot of people's attention.
"Xiao Li? Where is Xiao Li? Let your uncle go quickly... Ahem, wife, let me introduce you to Xiao Li, the girl who often plays chess with me and Old Master Qin, and who often dances square dance with Madam Yang..."
"Yes, yes, yes. He's the one who plays mahjong with Ms. Li. Do you know him? Have you ever played mahjong together?"
"Oh, I didn't expect that we all know each other. There's no need to introduce each other. Come on, Xiaoli, come here quickly so that uncle and aunt can take a good look..."
Tang Li was suddenly surrounded by a group of people and was at a loss as to what to do. She responded to everyone with a helpless smile.
"Grandpa Qin... Uncle Zhang... Sister Wang... Aunt Yang... Sister Li..."
"You...you are all here?"
"What a coincidence..."
"Alas, what's so lucky about us being here? Basically, we have been invited to almost any banquet of any importance. It's so annoying. If it weren't for the face of Mr. Jiang, I wouldn't have come to this kind of lousy party where there's not enough food to eat."
"It's a coincidence that we meet you here."
Uncle Zhang's wife waved her hand and pinched Tang Li's little face with a smile.
"Oh, not bad. You've gained a lot of weight after not living in the community for two weeks. Could it be that your uncle and aunt treated you badly?"
"No, no..." Tang Li quickly waved her hand with a sullen smile.
Even though she has decades of life experience, she looks one or two generations younger than these uncles, aunts, grandparents, and naturally cannot put on airs as her peers.
She had never expected that the uncles and aunts who usually chatted with her, played chess, Tai Chi and square danced with her would suddenly become the focus of this party...
The old man, who usually dressed simply and wore slippers, combed his gray hair back tonight and wore a well-tailored suit. Even the unkempt expression on his face turned into the majesty and seriousness of someone who has been in a high position for many years.
The aunties who used to wear baggy clothes and dance square dance with him every night also put on noble and gorgeous dresses today, with all kinds of exquisite brand-name bags slung on their arms wrapped in white silk gloves.
With just one glance, she recognized many of the brand names that Tang Youyou had wanted to buy for her but she had refused because she was reluctant to let her daughter spend money on them.
There were also other people of all kinds, most of whom were kind and friendly in the community. But when they came here, they seemed to have changed their appearance and showed the temperament of being a wealthy family.
But when they saw her, they all restrained their sharpness and went back to chatting with her while carrying vegetable baskets in the community.
Tang Li then truly realized that the true identities of these neighbors who usually enjoyed their old age life with her were people whom even her, the eldest daughter of the president, could not afford to offend. They were half of the wealthy circle in Jinling.

107. Two Families
Of course, because of her preconceived impression of the uncles and aunts, even though Tang Li had realized that her group of sunset friends had a profound background, she was not too moved.
Instead, Tang Keke was shocked. After all, she had only known the true identity of her own old Tang for a week. She only knew that after Tang Li was reborn, she lived in the old house for two days and then moved to Tang Youyou's large flat in Binjiang Linyuan. For this, she was secretly jealous all night.
But in her opinion, Tang Li had just been reborn and turned into a woman again. During that time, she would most likely stay at home and doubt her life. But now she was told that Tang Li not only did not doubt her life, but even made a group of friends with very high taste?
Most of the people who can appear in this banquet are either rich or noble. These uncles and aunts also look extraordinary. Several of them often appear on TV. She even saw a super investor who many celebrities in the entertainment industry want to curry favor with!
That's not right. Wasn't Old Tang a diligent worker before his reincarnation? When did he get to know so many wealthy and powerful emperors?
Could it be that our family is actually a wealthy one, and I am the second daughter who can inherit billions of assets, and I will be told my true identity when I turn 25?
Well, Tang Keke was just thinking about this kind of thing.
She saw the hardships Tang Li had gone through over the years and felt the pain in her heart, so she didn't care whether Tang Li was rich or poor, she only cared about Tang Li.
It's just that she originally wanted to use her queen halo to build momentum for Tang Li at this party, so that she wouldn't be affected by her lack of celebrity status when acting opposite her.
As a result, there is no need for her to stand up now. After all, there is a huge gap between her, a little queen who barely has some status, and these business tycoons.
If you build good relationships with these people, not to mention starring in a web drama, you can even be the leading lady in an Oscar-winning film.
Just based on the sight of Tang Li surrounded by a group of retired emperors, chatting and laughing tonight, the entire Jinling wealthy families and entertainment circles would know about this person's existence the next day.
Tang Keke is feeling a little strange right now.
He was relieved that Tang Li did not feel unable to integrate into her new life after her rebirth, but he also felt depressed because he still could not help Tang Li in any way.
Just like now, Tang Li was surrounded by those wealthy bosses, but she couldn't participate in it. The younger generation brought by those bosses could only stand outside and watch. This made her feel uncomfortable as she wanted to stand shoulder to shoulder with Tang Li.
When will I be able to stand beside you with my head held high?
Tang Keke lowered her eyes and clenched her fists slightly.
"Oh, by the way, let me introduce you to——"
Just when Tang Keke was feeling sad, Tang Li suddenly reached out and grabbed her arm, pulled her into the chat circle, then supported her shoulders and smiled.
"This is what I've been telling you about before. My second niece, Tang Keke, is so pretty. I wasn't kidding you, was I?"
"Come on, Coco, this is Grandpa Qin."
"Oh, this little girl is really pretty. What does she do?"
"I'm a singer now, and recently I seem to want to enter the film and television industry. Young people always like to try their luck."
"Oh! I remember now, you are the little diva who endorsed my store before, right?"
Tang Keke looked at the person who answered the question, and the corners of her mouth twitched suddenly.
My store?
Your company's cosmetics occupy the entire Jinling and even the national market. It is no exaggeration to say that you are the leading domestic cosmetics company. Can you please not talk about it as if you were an ordinary person opening a milk tea shop?
"Hello, Grandpa Qin, I...I did endorse your products..."
"Hey, now that you mention it, I remember that...that little sweet diva, right? My granddaughter really likes your songs. She even dragged me to your concert a while ago!"
Tang Keke looked in the direction of the voice and felt a slight sweat on her forehead.
How could she not know that the top arranger who was very influential in the circle had also heard her concert? Fortunately, she sang positive and sweet songs, otherwise if this big shot knew what kind of messed-up star his granddaughter liked, she might as well just retire.
Old Tang...what kind of monsters are those you know? !
She complained a little in her heart.
In front of this group of big guys, she was like a pet and could only tremble under their gaze.
However, while complaining, she felt a little warm in her heart.
I didn't expect that Old Tang would specially introduce her to these big guys.
There's no need to borrow this kind of favor...
"Young girl wants to act? It's not easy for a singer to act. Without a foundation, it's hard to find any good resources."
"Yes, Sister Ting, this kid has been in trouble recently. He finally got a chance to act in a web drama, but he has to bring his own money to join the crew."
Tang Li cried helplessly, her voice involuntarily carrying a hint of grievance.
"As an elder, I can't do anything to help my child when she's in trouble. I can only watch her suffer..."
"Oh, it's not a big deal. It can make my little Li so distressed." Sister Ting looked at Tang Li's aggrieved face and immediately felt distressed. She quickly nudged Uncle Zhang beside her with her elbow in annoyance.
"Old Zhang, don't you always brag about how great the movies you directed are? Now Xiaoli's niece needs a stepping stone, don't you have something to give her as a gift?"
"Do you have any skills?"
"Yes, yes, yes, this is really great."
Although Uncle Zhang looked big and strong, he was thinking about his wife. When he heard Sister Ting say this, he nodded quickly and said with a smile: "Well, is it possible?"
"Ah, yes, I'm Tang Keke, Director Zhang, very happy to meet you. I have watched the movies you directed many times! Especially..."
"Yeah, not bad."
Listening to Tang Keke talking about all the movies she had directed, Uncle Zhang couldn't help but nod with satisfaction.
If his previous view of Tang Keke was just a little star, and Xiaoli's niece, he now admired this young girl.
Having been in the entertainment industry for a long time, he has seen all kinds of life and knows that what young people look down upon the most are the mainstream dramas he has filmed. They usually know that he is a famous director, but can only name a few of his representative works and don't even know what the content is about.
Tang Keke not only knows all the movies he has made, but can also talk briefly about their contents, which shows how well prepared she is.
Even if Tang Keke has never seen his movies, based on this attitude, her future achievements cannot be low.
All he was doing now was giving her a push.
He is very happy to support the younger generations who have a promising future, and most importantly, Xiaoli's younger generations.
"Look, Keke, I see that you have good looks, and I happen to have a leading role in a martial arts drama. Do you want to give it a try?"
Tang Keke: ???
No, this happiness was too sudden. Even though she acted in a movie one moment and then took on an online drama the next, in fact, that was either due to the resources of Muse Media or her money-making ability to force her way through.
Judging from her personal abilities alone, she is actually not qualified to act in a serious drama.
Not to mention her acting skills, the producers who are capable of directing serious dramas that can be shown on TV screens are unwilling to use her as a newcomer.
As a result, now, with just a few words, she can not only star in a serious drama, but also become the protagonist?
What kind of good thing is this that fell from the sky?
"Keke, why don't you thank Uncle Zhang..."
Seeing that Tang Keke was in a daze, Tang Li pushed her daughter in annoyance.
She actually didn't know how important Uncle Zhang was in the entertainment industry, but seeing Tang Keke suppressing her excitement, she thought he should be pretty good...
She still felt happy that she could help her daughter.
After Tang Li's reminder, Tang Keke suddenly woke up from her surprise and quickly nodded in agreement.
"I'll take it! Director Zhang, I will never let you down!"
"Hahaha, easy to talk about."
"Oh, by the way, that martial arts TV series is very popular, you must act well when the time comes, and don't embarrass me, Uncle Zhang!"
Tang Keke couldn't help but blink. With Uncle Zhang's status, what other TV series could be considered highly regarded? And he even specifically told her to act well.
She couldn't help but be curious.
