When Lu Chongshan saw Xiaobao was going to write something for him, he was a little worried.
Because of his attainments in calligraphy, everyone had high expectations of Xiaobao. Plus, Xiaobao had just given everyone such an impression of being a genius, so everyone was inevitably harsh on him. But unexpectedly, the result surprised him so much, and he was filled with joy that there would be someone to succeed him!
This surprise was obviously a thousand times greater than the precious calligraphy that Guan Rui gave him!
“Good handwriting!”
Just as the guests were sighing, a deep and powerful voice suddenly came from behind.
Everyone looked in the direction where the voice came from, and saw a middle-aged man in military uniform walking towards the gate with big strides.
The man had a tall and straight figure and a resolute face. He was actually the general of the Zhuang family—Zhuang Liaoyuan!
"Commander Zhuang, I'm sorry for not coming to meet you in person! Sorry, sorry!" When Lu Chongshan saw the person coming, he immediately greeted him with a smile on his face.
"Mr. Lu, you are too polite. I am late because I was busy with trivial matters in the army. Please forgive me!" Zhuang Liaoyuan also said politely.
"Of course it's official business. Chief Zhuang, please come in..."
…
Zhuang Liaoyuan walked straight towards the calligraphy that Xiaobao had just written. After taking a closer look, he was full of admiration, "Was this written by your grandson?"
"Yes! It's a birthday present from my grandson!" Lu Chongshan's face was full of pride.
Zhuang Liaoyuan glanced at the little fellow beside him and nodded, "How rare! At such a young age, he can actually be so interesting! Director Lu, this child has inherited all your teachings!"
Zhuang Liaoyuan was talking to Lu Chongshan, and when he accidentally saw Ning Xi next to Xiaobao, he was stunned for a moment, "You..."
Ning Xi also recognized Zhuang Liaoyuan, but it was not appropriate to talk to him in this situation, so she could only pretend not to know him and continued to lower her head.
Zhuang Liaoyuan did react and quickly retracted his surprised look. However, when his eyes fell on Lu Tingxiao, they instantly turned colder.
Because of Zhuang Liaoyuan's arrival, the atmosphere in the banquet hall suddenly became lively again. After all, such a prominent red family is the one that many people want to make friends with.
The most important thing is that such a top family rarely interacts with wealthy families. Only occasions like Lu Chongshan’s birthday banquet can allow him to show up, and such an opportunity to speak is rare.
As for Guan Rui, his nerves immediately tensed up. He also knew that the Zhuang family and the Lu family had intended to form a marriage, so he thought about finding a way to test what this biggest competitor meant...
…
…
As the night deepened, the birthday banquet finally ended and the guests left one after another.
Xiao Bao followed Lu Tingxiao to see the guests off, and Ning Xi went to the small garden to get some fresh air.
I was sitting on the swing with my chin in my hand, excitedly recalling the scene of the domineering and handsome little baby, when I suddenly noticed that there seemed to be someone slowly approaching from behind, and I could tell from the footsteps that it was a martial artist.
Then, Ning Xi stood up and looked behind her alertly and cautiously...
The next second, vigilance turned into astonishment.
It turned out to be Zhuang Liaoyuan!
Why did he come here? He couldn't have come here specifically to see her, right
"Is that how that boy treated you?" Ning Xi was just wondering when Zhuang Liaoyuan suddenly looked at her and spoke.
When Zhuang Liaoyuan said this, the expression on his face looked very unhappy, even a little cold.
Ning Xi was completely confused by this incoherent question, "Uh... ah? Chief Zhuang, who are you talking about?"
Is he talking to himself
