The God of Wealth: Her Top Game of Thrones

Chapter 1240 Some Invitations

Tang Tang glanced at Edmund with a complicated expression, then slowly said, "It's not that much..."

Edmund knew Tang Tang quite well. He raised an eyebrow upon hearing this, chuckled, leaned closer to her, and winked, saying, "Why are you hesitating? Have you adopted a lot of small animals?"

“Ah, this,” Tang Tang said tactfully, “there are indeed many kinds. If you don’t mind, I’ll bring them all.”

“All of them,” Tang Tang said, “maybe there are quite a lot, and some might be a little scary… but I assure you they won’t harm humans.”

A question mark slowly appeared on Edmund's face.

He felt he might have misunderstood something, so Edmund asked cautiously, "For example?"

Tang Tang's eyes darted around, "Like a very pretty little snake... or a very burly crocodile... or a tiger or something..."

"snake?"

Edmund said, "The crocodile... OK."

He steadied himself and demonstrated remarkable emotional control. "And a tiger? That's so cool."

"Of course, darling, you can bring it with you then if you want, but I have a small problem."

Edmund looked at Tang Tang earnestly and spread his hands towards her, "Baby, if I remember correctly, federal law stipulates... that private individuals are not allowed to keep tigers or anything like that... right?"

Especially since Tang Tang is a foreign national entering the country, it's clear that the crocodiles and tigers she mentioned... could not possibly have entered the country through legitimate channels.

Tang Tang touched her nose and looked at him. "Then why don't you call the police and have me arrested?"

Edmund grinned mischievously and snuggled closer to Tang Tang, then whispered to her, "How could I bear to arrest you... Even if I were to arrest you, I would secretly lock you in my bedroom with pretty chains, baby."

"You're dreaming." Tang Tang rolled her eyes and kicked Edmund mercilessly under the table.

Now not only were there dust marks on his leather shoes, but there was also a dust mark on his trousers.

Edmund pouted and said in a pitiful tone, "I was just thinking about it."

Who told her to have so many lovers, and even bring them along to spend Christmas with him? What a wicked woman.

Edmund was genuinely curious, though. How exactly did Tang Tang manage to legally bring those little pets she mentioned into the country? Did she smuggle them across the border? Hmm, that's interesting.

Edmund didn't care at all; his eyes were full of curiosity and excitement at the thought of "I'm about to find out my dear baby's little secret."

After all, in the US, the law is made for those below the social class. And those above the social class have never taken the law seriously.

They make the rules, they break the rules, they manipulate the rules, and they just don't follow the rules.

Not to mention Tang Tang keeping some small pets, Edmund has heard of even worse things.

Therefore, he was just using this as an opportunity to flirt with his dear baby.

“Anyway, I’m going to take them with me,” Tang Tang said. “There are quite a few, so we need a larger place and to keep them isolated from other strangers.”

Edmund rested his chin on his hand and thought for a moment, “Actually, there are also private villas in the ski resort... more like small estates, but Theodore mentioned that the villas there may not have as many facilities as those outside.”

Moreover, being in the mountains, far from outside patrol teams, is somewhat unsafe.

But Tang Tang's eyes lit up. "That doesn't matter. How unsafe do you think it would be if there were two tigers around?"

Edmund raised an eyebrow. "Two?"

Tang Tang tilted her head. "One big and one small, believe me, Edmund, you'll like them."

……

“Miss Newman, hello, this is…”

"I wonder if I would be honored to invite you..."

"Hello, Miss Newman..."

"My birthday party..."

"The on-campus charity auction is organized by the student council..."

Out of respect for the professor, no one approached Tang Tang before class. However, to Tang Tang's surprise, after the teacher announced the end of get out of class, one person after another came to her and handed her various invitations or invitations.

The reasons were varied, ranging from birthdays to parties...

Tang Tang was somewhat surprised. Most importantly, no one invited Edmund, who was sitting right next to her. It turned out that the group of people had all ignored Edmund.

It wasn't until he left Harvard and got into the car that Edmund shrugged and explained, "Because before you even came to the US, I spent the entire last year making everyone understand one thing."

He said lazily, "Inviting me is doomed to fail. I'll almost certainly not go. They know their place."

Tang Tang rolled her eyes. "Are you saying they think I'm easier to invite?"

“No, no, no,” Edmund shook his head. “Baby, you haven’t attended many parties since you came to Harvard, so your invitations are now about as difficult as mine.”

He chuckled sarcastically, "It's just that unlike me, you haven't sent out any signals of rejection, so they still want to give it a try."

"If you're lucky enough to be noticed by someone, wouldn't you be on a meteoric rise?"

Tang Tang remained silent.

So, are there any parties you'd like to attend?

"No," Tang Tang said coldly, casually tossing the invitations into a roadside trash can. "They're all..."

Edmund chimed in, "They're all meaningless people, aren't they?"

Tang Tang shrugged slightly, tacitly agreeing.

“That’s the downside of being famous,” Edmund said with a smirk. “After the successful launch of Telos Labs’s miracle drug, you’ll no longer just be a young tycoon… you’ll also represent the future, and you’ll represent a voice…”

So these people began to abandon their previous reserve and wait-and-see attitude... They began to try to please Tang Tang in order to get an opportunity.

This is actually very common in the US, where it's a world of capital, and money buys everything.

Take Hollywood as an example: as long as you're popular, have a lot of fans, and a lot of box office success, then everything in Hollywood will be open to you unconditionally.

Everyone will talk about you, worship you, and follow you. Staff, agents, production companies, directors... will all treat you very, very well, even flattering you and praising you, treating you as a pillar of strength.

But when your influence declines and your popularity drops... OK, you'll quickly lose everything and be forced to accept a completely different world.

This is the reality of this capitalist land, which is why countless people fight for an opportunity, just to crush everyone else.

Here, as long as you have power, money, and influence, you can truly change everything and command the wind and rain.
