"Everyone has come from afar, and I hope you will forgive me for not being able to welcome you from afar!" Chen Guoliang said to the crowd, clasping his fists.
Chen Keer hurriedly bowed slightly and saluted, calling: "Second Grandpa!"
Chen Guoliang nodded and said with a kind smile: "Ke'er doesn't need to be polite!"
"Thank you, Grandpa Second!" Chen Keer said briskly.
Before everyone came, they had already done some understanding of the Chen family and knew that the second grandfather Chen Ke'er mentioned was the head of the Chen family and Master Chen's biological grandfather.
Moreover, everyone also knows that Master Chen respects his grandfather very much.
Therefore, when facing Chen Guoliang, everyone did not dare to show any slightness and returned the favor one after another.
"I've met Master Chen!"
"I've met Mr. Guoliang!"
Those who are junior to Chen Guoliang all call the Chen family leader. And people who are senior to Chen Guoliang, for the sake of Master Chen's face, don't dare to call him Mr. Guoliang.
Chen Guoliang was secretly surprised by everyone's attitude. Although Chu Wenxiong and Jia Jing'an were of lower generation than him, their power was equivalent to that of his Chen family. In the shopping mall, strength was far more important than generation, so basically everyone acted according to strength. Rank seniority.
But Chu Wenxiong and Jia Jing'an's attitude towards him was obviously the attitude that juniors have towards their elders, which surprised Chen Guoliang!
As for those who were older than him regardless of generation or age, they actually called him Mr. Guoliang, which made Chen Guoliang a little flattered!
"You don't need to be polite, please take a seat!" Although Chen Guoliang was surprised in his heart, he greeted everyone with a calm expression on his face.
"Please!" everyone said politely.
Chen Guoliang said with a smile: "The visitor is a guest, everyone invites you first!"
"I don't dare, it's the head of the Chen family who should invite me first!" Everyone insisted.
Chen Guoliang was helpless and really didn't understand why these people respected him so much.
"Okay, let's all work together." In front of these big guys, Chen Guoliang didn't dare to make excuses at all.
"Okay!" Everyone didn't insist this time. Otherwise, who knows how long they would have to give in
Just after Chen Guoliang and everyone took their seats, Chen Donghua also walked over.
"Dad!" Chen Ke'er called out reluctantly. The little girl had always complained about this eccentric father.
Chen Donghua changed his usual lukewarm attitude towards Chen Ke'er, and said with an affectionate smile: "Ke'er, there's no need to be polite, sit down quickly!"
Chen Kerr sat silently next to Chen Guoliang and Chen Guozhong, without even looking at Chen Donghua, which made the father very embarrassed.
A flash of anger flashed in Chen Donghua's eyes. If it were in the past, he would definitely reprimand Chen Ke'er, but in front of so many important people, he would not dare to be presumptuous.
Chu Wenxiong and others looked at Chen Donghua with smiles on their faces and said nothing. However, according to their previous understanding, Chen Donghua was obviously classified as unpopular.
"Master of the family!" In front of outsiders, Chen Donghua called Chen Guoliang the master of the family in a formal manner.
Chen Guoliang smiled and nodded: "Sit down!"
"Thank you, Master!" Chen Donghua said.
Chen Donghua did not sit down immediately, but looked at Chu Wenxiong and his group, and said to everyone, "You have come all the way to wish my little girl a happy birthday. I would like to thank you all on my behalf!"
"Yeah." Everyone didn't know whether they were snorting or not, and their attitude towards Chen Donghua was very cold.
Chen Donghua was stunned for a moment, somewhat confused about the situation.
Logically speaking, these people came all the way to wish their daughter a birthday. As a father, his presence must be more important than that of his daughter. But these people are indifferent to me. Why is this
However, Chen Donghua cannot afford to offend any of these people here. So Chen Donghua pretended not to notice anything and found a seat nearby to sit down.
Chen Guoliang naturally saw Chen Donghua's situation, and he was secretly wondering in his heart, wondering what the situation was in front of him
"Donghua, you are Ke'er's father, why don't you toast everyone?" Chen Guoliang was trying to save Chen Donghua.
Chen Donghua was not stupid, so he could tell it. He quickly picked up the wine glass and said, "I would like to propose a toast to you on behalf of my daughter. Thank you for your love for my daughter!"
After saying that, Chen Donghua finished it in one gulp.
"I'll do it first as a courtesy!"
Unfortunately, Chen Guoliang's trick didn't work, and everyone still didn't buy it. He didn't even bother to pick up the glass of wine and just sat there with a sneer on his face, not even looking at Chen Donghua.
Chen Donghua's face instantly turned red with embarrassment. This time, everyone's disregard for him was so obvious that even Chen Keer's classmates could see it.
Chen Donghua wanted to get angry, but looking at the people here, there was no one he could offend. Chen Donghua could only hold back his anger. He couldn't sit there, walk, or stay. It was extremely embarrassing.
Chen Guoliang had no choice but to speak out again to save the situation: "Donghua, just let me greet Ke'er here. You go to Ke Xin's side to greet the guests from Yanjing!"
This was to find a way out for Chen Donghua. Chen Donghua was eager to leave immediately. He could tell that these people only had Ke'er in their eyes, not him at all!
"Yes, I'll go over right away!"
"Everyone, excuse me!" Chen Donghua left dejectedly.
Everyone didn't bother to chat with him and let him leave.
Chen Guoliang probably saw what was going on. Obviously, these people did not treat the Chen family equally.
However, the visitor is a guest, especially since everyone has a distinguished status, so he cannot lose his etiquette.
"Come, let me toast you all!" Chen Guoliang said, picking up the wine glass.
"Don't dare, I will respect Master Chen!" Everyone regained their previous respect for Chen Guoliang.
After three rounds of drinking, everyone was talking politely, saying something about a dragon coming out of the Chen family, etc. Chen Guoliang was confused.
Chen Guoliang originally wanted to find out who the mysterious Mr. Chen was from the crowd, but he had to give up.
Helpless, Chen Guoliang had no choice but to speak frankly and asked: "Everyone, I am very curious, who is the Mr. Chen you are talking about? Why does he love us Ke'er so much?"
Everyone looked at each other with mysterious smiles on their faces, but no one answered Chen Guoliang.
"Brother Xue, you are a humble gentleman, do you still hope to clarify Chen's doubts?" No one answered, so Chen Guoliang had to choose someone to answer, and Xue Qianhe's character is naturally well known.
Xue Qianhe smiled faintly and said: "Haha, forgive me, Mr. Guoliang, but Mr. Chen's name is not something I can mention casually! I believe everyone present is the same, so you don't have to ask."
Hearing this, everyone quickly nodded in agreement.
Chen Guoliang frowned, looking at everyone's expressions, it didn't look like they were deliberately making excuses to fool him.
Chen Guoliang became even more curious: "Who is this Mr. Chen? Xue Qian and others dare not even mention his name!"
"Even the one with the highest status in China cannot achieve such a deterrent effect!"
As a result, Chen Guoliang wanted to find out who the mysterious Mr. Chen was even more.
However, these people have a strict manner of speaking, and it is extremely difficult to ask questions from them. It seems that the only way to find out is from Ke'er.
"You just don't know that Ke'er knows the origin of Mr. Chen?" Chen Guoliang secretly guessed.
At this time, a voice sounded from outside the door: "On the order of Mr. Chen, I am here to give Miss Chen Er a birthday gift!"
