puff.....

Gao Ren's answer made Commander Liu extremely uncomfortable; his entire face turned bright red.

Even her body trembled slightly.

It seems to be saying,

Holy crap!

How can you be so shameless? We were just being polite to you, but you really didn't stand on ceremony with us at all!

But these reporters all seemed to have received instructions; they didn't dwell on the issue.

Instead, while asking the question, they intentionally or unintentionally helped explain why Gao Ren had so many wives...

The interview lasted for almost half an hour before it ended.

During that half hour, all of Gao Ren's wives, except for Gao Ren himself, were interviewed by reporters.

But just like when these reporters interviewed Gao Ren, they didn't make things difficult for them...

"Alright, fellow reporters!"

"It's time for the interview; it's time for the conferment ceremony!"

Upon hearing Commander Xu's words, the reporters immediately and consciously put away their cameras.

Leave a path for Gao Ren to walk onto the stage.

*Slap slap slap slap slap...*

Almost simultaneously, as Ruby and the others began to applaud, everyone in the audience who wasn't holding anything started clapping.

They also started clapping.

In a short time,

The entire playground erupted in enthusiastic applause once again.

Amidst the enthusiastic applause, Gao Ren, who hadn't been excited in a long time,

But a burning desire ignited within me, as if I knew that once the conferment ceremony was over...

It's like letting him take a gun and fight Yoho all by himself. Gao Ren is willing to go alone!

"In recognition of Major General Gao Ren's heroic performance in the Maru Maru Special Operation,"

"This is a special statement from the Headquarters of the Three Services!"

"Major General Gao Ren has been promoted to Lieutenant General!"

Centered on the stage, Commander Zhao finished speaking with a serious expression.

Commander Xu then strode confidently toward Gao Ren.

brush!

After a standard salute, Commander Xu personally removed the epaulette with only one gold star from Gao Ren's shoulder.

Then from the red tray held by the bodyguard beside him,

He picked up the epaulettes with two gold stars representing a lieutenant general and put them on Gao Ren's shoulders!

"Xiao Gao!"

"From today onwards, you are the Lieutenant General of this household!"

"Personnel transfers between the Southeast Peninsula, Maru Maru, and Hong Kong Island are entirely up to you!"

"This is the family's response to your loyalty!"

Faced with Commander Xu's earnest words, Gao Ren lost his usual carefree demeanor.

He first returned Commander Xu a standard salute before speaking.

"Commander Xu, don't worry!"

"I will absolutely not let down this uniform I'm wearing!"

Upon hearing this answer, Commander Xu revealed an expression that said, "I absolutely believe you."

He patted Gao Ren on the shoulder.

Just when Gao Ren thought Commander Xu would let him say a few words, suddenly,

The other four commanders, in front of the cameras of the reporters in the audience,

They marched in unison to Gao Ren's side.

"Xiao Gao, it was our fault as uncles for not being able to publicly support you a while ago!"

"this time!"

"Here's one for you!"

After Commander Liu finished speaking, Gao Ren was deeply shocked.

The reporters in the audience began taking pictures of the six people in the center of the stage...

This moment!

Gao Ren knew why the other four commanders had traveled such a long way to attend his conferment ceremony.

The purpose is to let everyone know!

Commander Xu wasn't the only one standing behind Gao Ren!

And these four too!

After all, attending the conferment ceremony in person is completely different from calling to congratulate Gao Ren on his promotion!

The conferment ceremony lasted for more than an hour before it finally ended.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the food and drinks are ready!"

This way, please!

Led by Commander Xu, the group arrived at a private room in the restaurant.

The huge round dining table was already filled with all kinds of delicacies and Moutai liquor!

As everyone took their seats, Commander Xu, as the host, was the first to raise his glass.

"Xiao Gao, Mr. Eight-Faced Buddha, Mr. He, and all my nieces-in-law,"

"Our conditions here aren't as good as yours, please don't mind!"

Upon hearing this, Gao Ren was the first to raise his glass and say,

"What you eat isn't important, what matters is who you eat with!"

"It's like in Hong Kong Island, if I were to have dinner with that Welsh foreigner, even if it was dragon meat, I wouldn't be happy!"

"But when eating with family, even if it's just peanuts and Erguotou (a type of Chinese liquor)!"

"I, Gao Ren, am also smiling happily!"

Gao Ren's answer revealed that both Eight-Faced Buddha and He Xin were seasoned veterans.

He immediately followed up with a few flattering remarks.

Then, amidst laughter and cheerful conversation, the first glass of wine was downed.

The casual conversation lasted for five or six minutes, then Commander Xu waved to the guard beside him who was pouring wine.

The guard carrying the Moutai first poured Moutai into Gao Ren's cup, then handed Gao Ren a photograph.

After seeing Gao Ren finish looking at the photos, Commander Xu immediately spoke.

"Xiao Gao, the foreigner in this photo is Walton, a subordinate of William of the Rothschild family."

"His mission in Hong Kong Island this time is very simple!"

"It was while you were pinning all the blame on Wales for Hong Kong's problems that they were able to take advantage of to reap the benefits from the stock market and the economy!"

After speaking, seeing that Gao Ren didn't show any particular surprise on his face,

After a few seconds of silence, Commander Xu spoke.

"Xiao Gao, you knew all along?"
