Chapter 208: 204. Weiteng Makes Another Move

At the dining table, Bert frowned slightly as he watched the Auston brothers, who were currently competing with Taotao and Susu to see who could eat the fastest. How had they become like this after only a few days apart?

"Sister-in-law, I want to eat this." Arthur pointed at a dish next to Liu Lu and said loudly.

Liu Lu smiled and served it to him. Taotao and Susu immediately wanted some too. The four little ones were now extremely enthusiastic about eating; every time they sat down, they would have a competition, and they were eating much more than before.

Originally, Liu Lu had been worried that Auston and the others wouldn't be used to things here or would feel constrained, but she hadn't expected that in just two days, the two little ones would have completely let go.

Zhang Ran watched all this with a smile. Seeing that Bert seemed to be enduring something quite uncomfortably on the side, he couldn't help but say to him, "Bert, this is our family's habit. Don't mind it, just relax a bit, don't be so reserved."

Bert smiled and said, "Thank you, Zhang Shu, I understand."

Although he said that, Bert still maintained a slow and steady eating pace, and his movements were very elegant.

Taylor nudged Zhang Ran with his elbow and whispered, "Don't waste your effort. He has already integrated so-called aristocratic etiquette into his bones. It's too hard to change."

Zhang Ran shrugged indifferently; he didn't really care about that. And had it really been integrated into his bones?

The influence of the environment was huge. Right now, Bert's way of eating was indeed very elegant and very aristocratic, but it was somewhat out of place with their current situation.

Zhang Ran believed that it wasn't just them who felt a bit uncomfortable; Bert felt the same way. Just wait and see.

"Sicheng, Siyan, take two days off these next two days and take Bert out to look around more," Zhang Ran said.

Zhang Siyan had no trouble with that; after all, her boss was currently still sponging meals at her house.

Zhang Sicheng hesitated, "I'll be a bit busy these next two days. There's a small situation at the company, and I might not be able to spare the time."

It really wasn't that Zhang Sicheng didn't want to accompany Bert, but there was truly something going on, the kind he couldn't pull himself away from.

Bert smiled and said, "No need to trouble Cheng and Siyan. I also have some homework that I need to do recently."

When Bert said this, his expression was very sincere, and he didn't make Zhang Sicheng or the others feel that he had any unhappy emotions.

Zhang Ran didn't say much more about this, only saying, "If there's no time, then forget it. Anyway, Bert is going to stay here for a while longer, no need to rush for this moment."

Zhang Ran took the opportunity to proactively extend the time Bert would be staying here. Bert hesitated for a moment, but still didn't speak up.

The house that Prince Haiman had helped Bert buy here was already finished. Just like with Taylor, they had replaced all the furniture inside.

Therefore, Bert and the Auston brothers would also be staying there tonight, and Susu and Taotao had also returned to live there.

This made Huo Zhiyuan feel a bit reluctant to let them go. She liked these four little ones very much. With these four little ones in her house, she finally felt a sense of home in her own home.

Although this phrasing was a bit awkward, it was Huo Zhiyuan's true feeling.

"Brother, let me tell you, I've made so, so many friends these past few days." On the way back, Arthur kept talking to Bert about his situation over the past few days, his little face full of excitement.

Auston couldn't help but chime in a few times too. Although he was a bit afraid of his brother, blood was thicker than water, and Bert was still very good to the two brothers.

Bert just listened quietly on the side. Originally, he had planned to lecture the two brothers a little when they got back in the evening, telling them to pay more attention to their image.

But seeing the two brothers so genuinely happy and joyful, he didn't know why, but he suddenly didn't want to say it anymore.

When they were at home, he had rarely seen the two brothers have such happy moments, and at this moment, he seemed to understand why the two little ones were willing to run away from home to come here.

The next day, Zhang Siyan and Qian Li came over for breakfast in the morning, and then took Bert out to play.

This was something Zhang Ran had specifically requested Zhang Siyan to do, to bring Qian Li along.

He had also been keeping Qian Li's matter in his heart, but he just hadn't encountered anyone suitable before. Based on his own observations and some opinions he had heard from Taylor, Bert was a very good young man.

Of course, his status might also bring some inconveniences. If Qian Li could get together with Bert, there would likely be a lot of pressure.

But Zhang Ran still decided to try to play matchmaker. If it worked out, he, Zhang Ran, would give Qian Li a dowry sufficient to match him.

This was also what Qian Li deserved!

However, it was clearly Zhang Ran who had overthought it. Qian Li didn't seem to have any of that kind of intention toward Bert at all, simply treating him as a friend.

Before leaving, Zhang Siyan quietly came to Zhang Ran's side and whispered to him, "Xiao Li doesn't like people with Bert's personality. She likes the kind whose personality can get along well with hers."

Zhang Siyan had also seen it, so she told Zhang Ran about Qian Li's preferences.

Zhang Ran didn't mind and said, "I was just trying; if it doesn't work, we can still be friends."

At Biaoxue Company, as soon as Zhang Sicheng arrived at the company in the morning, he discovered that the company's atmosphere was wrong.

He frowned, didn't say anything, and went to his office. Just as he sat down, Wang Tao walked in.

"General Manager Zhang, Weiteng has made a move. Take a look at these." As he spoke, Wang Tao handed over the tablet in his hand.

Zhang Sicheng took a look and found that it was all news about games, but this news was all negative.

Originally, this was a very normal thing. After all, this was Huaxia, and in the public's impression, games still belonged to the category of things that "harm the growth of teenagers."

Such things basically happened once or twice every month, but most of them were concentrated on the games of the two companies, Weiteng and Shengcheng.

But this time it didn't seem to be like that; instead, the focus was vaguely being placed on their company.

The news here was very simple: a child, in order to save face, bought skins, characters, and special effects for characters in a game, spending the 100,000 yuan that the family had worked hard to save.

There had been a lot of such news in recent years. In fact, some of it was deliberately created by people; after all, wanting to do such a thing was very simple, and it didn't require much effort, and as for money, that was even less.

Originally, Zhang Sicheng wouldn't have cared about such news, but in this news, the words were alluding to one game, and that was their company's *PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds*.

It was just that it hadn't been directly expressed yet; it seemed to be brewing something.

"General Manager Zhang, this matter needs to be handled early. This is nothing for big companies like Weiteng, but for us, it counts as a not-so-small crisis. If someone takes the opportunity to let government regulatory departments come in, as long as they pause our game for a few days..."

"Then we will lose a large batch of users, and it will also be an irreparable loss to the company's image." Wang Tao's face was a bit anxious.
