Chapter 954 - 956: Lin Fei and Mu Shanshan Escape
CHAPTER 954: CHAPTER 956: LIN FEI AND MU SHANSHAN ESCAPE
Wang Hongjun, a Major General, had quite a relationship with Grandpa He during his leadership days. This time he came not for anything else, just to celebrate with his old subordinate, He Rongxuan’s eldest son, He Zhengming.
He Rongxuan has one son and one daughter. His son, He Zhengming, is gaining experience in the military, while his daughter is studying abroad. For certain reasons, his daughter did not attend.
"Incredible! The power of the He family is deeply rooted. Although Grandpa He has already stepped into the background, his descendants are extraordinary. Not only has his son become the mayor of a city, but even his grandson is a military representative. Looking at those stars, it’s clear he is a Lieutenant. Moreover, the network includes veteran generals in the military, which cannot be underestimated, truly cannot be underestimated!" Someone sighed, deeply shocked by Grandpa He’s lineage.
But Lin Fei watched this scene with disdain and turned away. Major General? Hmph, just an old timer. The youngest Major General is standing right in front of you! No eyes for the true Buddha.
"General, please, today is my father’s 70th birthday, and having the good fortune to invite you, it’s truly an honor!" He Rongxuan temporarily didn’t bother with Lin Fei and Mu Shanshan. After all, the status of a Major General is much higher than people from two conglomerate companies. Even if they were Grandpa He’s close relatives, at this moment, they couldn’t match the importance of receiving a Major General.
In the He family’s row of villas, at this moment, the crowd parted like a river, revealing a large open space.
Two people slowly walked through, one tall and burly, with white hair yet still looking energetic. On his face, a long-time hardened smile from joy tugged at his stiff skin. With his straight shoulders and back, he walked as though he were a mighty tiger in the forest, imposing and mighty.
A step behind was a middle-aged man with bristly beard, with every strand of his hair and clothing meticulously arranged, about thirty-odd years old. His square face was full of a happy smile.
He Rongxuan led the way to greet them while they also noticed Lin Fei and Mu Shanshan who wanted to leave, though Wang Hongjun did not show it.
Only He Zhengming whispered to He Rongxuan, "Father, who is this?"
"You don’t know. The old man is nostalgic and wants your aunt to return to the He family and be entered into the family register. Taking advantage of his 70th birthday, he thought of bringing her daughter back to recognize her." He Rongxuan whispered in explanation.
"Oh, that’s how it is, but, father, if that girl is aunt’s daughter, then who is this man? Could he be the cousin’s boyfriend?" He Zhengming asked puzzledly, having sensed something amiss. Clearly, the cause was with that man.
"Don’t mention it. He’s just a dolt. I really don’t know how Mu Hong could find such a son-in-law. Isn’t this pushing Shanshan into the fire pit?" said He Rongxuan with an angry demeanor, harboring absolutely negative sentiments towards Lin Fei.
"Oh! This kid has such abilities?" He Zhengming became interested.
"Just an arrogant brat, not worth bothering about." He Rongxuan really didn’t want to mention his embarrassing matters.
Meanwhile, Wang Hongjun had already met with Grandpa He.
"Major General Wang’s visit, apologies for not coming out to greet you! Xiuli, go, find a seat for Major General Wang." Grandpa He maintained a serious face, but clearly, he was very happy about Wang Hongjun’s visit.
And Wu Xiuli, upon hearing Grandpa He’s instructions, dared not delay and quickly arranged a master chair.
"Old man, I wish you happiness as vast as the East Sea and longevity as enduring as the Southern Mountain!" Wang Hongjun exclaimed heartily, embodying the grand style typical of a military person, which matched Grandpa He’s demeanor.
"Haha, Wang, you must be nearing fifty, yet you still call me ’Old Man’? Your grandson is crawling all over, isn’t he?" Grandpa He laughed heartily, the depth of his eyes showed a profound understanding of life’s trials.
"Oh dear, I can’t match you now, you’ve retreated, and I can’t compete with you either. How comfortable you are! Children flocking around you." Wang Hongjun sighed genuinely. Truly he felt both comforted and envious of Grandpa He, having retired with children providing joy around him. Unlike him, not coming home for most of the year, and with his dedication to work, almost treating the military camp as his home.
"Don’t say that, I still have my worries!" Grandpa He, upon hearing Wang Hongjun say this, showed a helpless expression.
"What’s wrong? Is there something even you can’t solve?" Wang Hongjun asked, surprised.
Meanwhile, Lin Fei, already impatient and fearing trouble, spoke up, "Old man, my wife and I have things to handle, let’s chat next time! We’re leaving." Having said this, Lin Fei pulled Mu Shanshan up and turned to leave.
Grandpa He was startled by the voice and almost stood up, but he thought of something and heavily sat back down with a sigh.
"Huh!" Wang Hongjun heard the young man’s words, involuntarily casting a surprised glance at Lin Fei. This kid truly has guts! Daring to be so disrespectful to Grandpa He. But what shocked him more was Grandpa He’s expression.
However, after these tumultuous emotions, Wang Hongjun was once again taken aback. "This person? How do I feel like I’ve seen him somewhere before?" Wang Hongjun pondered "That’s right." He suddenly focused tightly on the direction Lin Fei disappeared to "It’s him, it’s him. Dragon Soul Junior Group."
Wang Hongjun was about to get up. After all, the impact of the Dragon Soul Junior Group was too massive, establishing connections wouldn’t hurt! But quickly, Wang Hongjun regained his composure. Seeing Lin Fei’s guise, it was clear he didn’t want outsiders to reveal his true identity.
"But, what’s the connection between the Junior Group and Grandpa He? It wouldn’t hurt to inquire."
So Wang Hongjun asked Grandpa He inquisitively, "Old man, who is this?"
"Ah! That’s my granddaughter coming to pay respects on my birthday." Grandpa He didn’t mention Lin Fei, not wanting his old friend to see a joke.
"Then, who is that young fellow?" Wang Hongjun wouldn’t give up without an answer, quickly pursued the question.
"Hmm! Ahem! I’ll be honest with you! This young man is called Lin Fei; he’s my granddaughter’s husband. But he absolutely doesn’t deserve to be my grandson-in-law, too arrogant, behaves like nobody else exists." Grandpa He replied fervently.
"Hmm!" Hearing Grandpa He say this, Wang Hongjun considered deeply, hesitating. Yet he thought, it couldn’t be helped to let the He family and Dragon Soul Junior Group become foes. He decided to give Grandpa He some insight.
"Old man, do you know the real details about this Lin Fei?"
"Hmph! I investigated, this Lin Fei is some punk my supposed good son-in-law found from who knows where, spends every day doing nothing, still just a small security guard." Grandpa He responded with resentment, his expression full of dissatisfaction with Mu Hong, and displeasure at Lin Fei.
