Chapter 37 : Banquet
That was the commander in chief! He was the person in charge of the military base in Jiang District!
He knew Chi Yang was not just an ordinary guy.
He was an officer who became the captain when he was just 26 years old. Aside from his excellent physique, if he did not have any background to support him, he would be able to remove Zhong Kuijun’s head and kick it around like a ball.
But he needed to be patient in finding out Chi Yang’s background. He needed to slowly discover this himself.
Now that Chi Yang was willing to help him pull strings with the commander in chief, his future would be bright.
“Alright, thank you very much.”
Zhong Kuijun was more enthusiastic planning the banquet now knowing that the commander in chief was coming.
“The most luxurious five-star hotel in Jiang District right now is the newly built Lijing Mansion. Why don’t we hold our banquet over there? What do you think?”
“There’s no need for it to be that luxurious.”
Zhong Kuijun was perturbed. “But we’re inviting the commander in chief...”
“The commander in chief won’t mind. Plus, the star of the banquet is Nuannuan. I think the banquet should be warm and welcoming.
“Oh? And how should we do that?”
“The courtyard of the Zhong Mansion is very big. There’s a garden outside of the courtyard. We can discuss this with the property management so that we can combine that large public area behind the courtyard and the courtyard together to hold one big lawn party. I think it should be able to fit about 300 people.”
“Alright, we’ll do just that.” Zhong Kuijun did not consider much. As long as Chi Yang could help him invite the commander in chief, anything was fine with him.
However Jiang Shuwan’s face fell and she said, “No way. We only have Aunty Zhao and one butler, and the butler doesn’t know how to cook. It would be illogical to ask Aunty Zhao to cook for everyone.”
“That’s no problem. I’ll hire someone for that.”
“But... are they as good as the chefs in a five-star hotel?” Jiang Shuwan did not dare to agree with what was being proposed.
“Aunty, don’t worry. I will make sure that the matter won’t become an embarrassment.”
Jiang Shuwan smiled lightly, “That’s good.”
Zhong Qianqian was sitting on the sofa in front of the television. When she saw that they were happily chatting and planning a banquet for Zhong Nuannuan, her face got dark with anger.
Chi Yang could easily invite the commander in chief that her father was not close to. It was obvious that the two of them had an unusual relationship and Chi Yang’s identity was not just an ordinary person.
He was the captain of the army at age 26. With his overbearing ability and unusual background, it would not be surprising that he would become a major general by the age of 35, and then a lieutenant general like the commander in chief in the military base at 45.
The military base called the shots in Camino. If one could marry Chi Yang and become the wife of a general, then their status would be incomparable to the rich and famous in Jiang District.
But too bad, Zhong Nuannuan snatched away what was rightfully hers.
The more Chi Yang showed how amazing he was, the more Zhong Qianqian was unable to let him go without doing anything.
Since young, she would get anything that she wanted. She did not want to lose to some hill billy that was brought back from the mountains!
So what if Zhong Nuannuan had Big Brother Chi Yang’s heart after having that relationship with him?
After dinner, Zhong Kuijun brought Chi Yang and Nuannuan to the living room to have a chat with them. When he saw Zhong Qianqian on the sofa, he felt like her existence was unnecessary so he said, “Qianqian, go help your mother clean up the bedroom so that Chi Yang could rest later.”
Zhong Qianqian’s face fell. She wanted to ask on what grounds would she do that but when she thought of something and smirked.
“Alright. Big Brother Chi Yang, please chat with my dad. I’ll go clean up the room for you.”
