Chapter 522

The tone carried a plea for sympathy, and with those deliberately affected lispings, most men couldn’t withstand it.

Yin Tian pondered for a moment.

He wanted to find Zhen Huayi and Zhen Songwen.

But if he used the power of Know-It-All, it wouldn’t be easy to uncover anything.

Therefore, starting from Zhao Wan would obviously be much quicker.

Thinking this, Yin Tian finally nodded slowly, "Okay."

"I’ll go back to get the car."

"Alright."

Zhao Wan acted exceptionally coquettish, but anyone could see through her pretense of innocence.

Yin Tian returned to Yin Mansion to fetch the car, then came back to the Zhen Family’s entrance.

No sooner had the car stopped at the doorstep than Zhao Wan emerged from the gate.

She had changed into a fitting gown that showcased her exquisite figure, radiating a charming grace.

She brazenly opened the car door and sat inside, smiling at Yin Tian, "Why did you still come in such a big car?"

"This is the only one I have."

Yin Tian responded aloud.

Zhao Wan’s gaze flickered slightly, but she said nothing.

However, she started scheming in her heart.

Yin Tian’s family having only this one car, and not even a particularly good one at that, clearly evidenced that Yin Tian wasn’t very well-off.

But, desiring to hitch a ride with Yin Tian to get to the Lin Family, she once again put on a bright smile and said, "It’s getting late, let’s go."

Yin Tian nodded and drove off with Zhao Wan into the distance.

"I heard that a new top-tier family appeared yesterday, did you know?"

Zhao Wan asked casually.

"I did."

"Do you know who it is?"

"Not so sure."

Yin Tian didn’t tell her the truth, "Such families are beyond our reach."

"That’s true,"

Zhao Wan agreed and nodded, "By the way, what’s your relationship with Mr. Lin? He seemed quite nice to you yesterday."

"What if I told you we had no relationship, would you believe me?"

Yin Tian retorted.

Zhao Wan was taken aback and then fell silent.

Soon, the car stopped at a restaurant.

In Central City, the majority of businesses were owned by first or second-tier families, but the service staff were all from fifth-tier families.

Yin Tian felt that everything about Central City was too fake and too utilitarian, blatantly stratifying people into ranks, seemingly reasonable but actually hugely distorted.

He didn’t know who had set up this system or what the ultimate purpose was in creating such rules.

Seeing Yin Tian lost in thought, Zhao Wan reached out, waving her hand in front of him, "What are you daydreaming about? Let’s go inside."

Yin Tian snapped back to reality and walked into the restaurant with Zhao Wan.

"Wan’er, over here!"

A woman just happened to come out of a private room and waved at Zhao Wan upon seeing her.

Zhao Wan instinctively hooked Yin Tian’s arm and walked over with him.

They entered the private room, where another girl was present.

"Gee, Wan’er, it’s only been a few days and you’ve already found yourself a new guy?"

The girl was evidently familiar with Zhao Wan, "I heard that Wu Yuanshan got crippled yesterday."

"That’s all in the past, why bring him up?"

Zhao Wan smiled lightly, then turned to Yin Tian, introducing him, "This is my bestie, Wang Lulu, Lulu, this is my new boyfriend..."

At that moment, Zhao Wan suddenly paused.

Because she realized she didn’t know Yin Tian’s name yet.

Yin Tian noticed Zhao Wan’s embarrassment, smiled slightly, and reached out his hand, "Hello, I’m Yin Tian."

"The Yin surname?"

Wang Lulu disregarded the hand Yin Tian offered, her expression suspicious, "Is there a Yin surname in Central City?"

"With thousands of big and small families in Central City, you think you know them all?"

Zhao Wan spoke bluntly, then changed the subject, "Where’s your boyfriend? Why hasn’t he arrived yet?"

"Some family matters had him grounded. He called me just now, said he sneaked out and is on his way here,"

Wang Lulu spoke indifferently, "I really don’t get it; we’re all adults and yet he gets grounded for a little mistake."

After a while, the other girl also returned to the private room.

"Wan’er, what tier is your boyfriend’s family?"

Wang Lulu asked leisurely, holding a glass of red wine in her hand.

Zhao Wan immediately looked at Yin Tian.

She too wanted to know the answer.

"Third-tier."

As Yin Tian sipped his drink, he replied aloud.

"So it’s third-tier..."

Wang Lulu drew out her words.

Even Zhao Wan’s expression soured a bit.

She had thought at the very least Yin Tian would be from a second-tier family, yet he was only from a third-tier family!

"Third-tier families don’t have the privilege of dining here,"

Wang Lulu remarked with a smile at Yin Tian, "Today you’re really lucky. If this restaurant weren’t owned by my boyfriend’s family, you wouldn’t even have the right to come in."

"Is that so?"

Yin Tian appeared to miss the sarcasm in Wang Lulu’s words, nodding earnestly, "Then later I must properly thank your boyfriend."

At this remark, Zhao Wan’s face lost all pretense of composure.

She had brought Yin Tian here to show off.

But now...

It seemed she was the one being shown off instead?
