He is usually disciplined in his diet and generally dislikes greasy meat.
But for some reason, this braised pork knuckle tastes strangely delicious today.
Just as everyone was enjoying their meal, Yu Shan, with Zhang Shi gently pulling her shoulders close, glanced at Chen Jinheng and spoke up.
"Yushan, didn't you always say you admired the Second Young Master when you were a child? Today you have a rare opportunity to eat with him, why don't you go up and offer him a toast?"
Upon hearing this, Yu Shan's fair face flushed pink. She shyly picked up the wine glass in front of her and said softly,
"Respectfully, Second Young Master! May you be invincible and return victorious!"
Chen Jinheng's eyes narrowed slightly, his face expressionless, and he said coldly,
"Thank you for your blessing, Miss Yushan. I heard that you will be assisting my wife in the future. I hope you two will have a pleasant working relationship!"
But my wife doesn't drink much, so I'll toast you on her behalf as a way of thanking you in advance!
After saying that, Chen Jinheng picked up his wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.
Upon hearing this, Yu Shan's lips curved into a bright smile, and she said softly,
"Second Young Master is too kind. It is Yu Shan's honor to be able to assist the Second Madam."

Although Gu Qianluo wasn't good at drinking, she still had to be polite. She picked up the teacup in front of her, covered her face with her sleeve, smiled faintly, and said...
"Sister Yushan, I'd like to offer you a toast with tea instead of wine. I wish you find your Mr. Right soon and live a happy and fulfilling life together."
Upon hearing this, Yu Shan's newly blossoming smile vanished instantly, and she stammered,
"But...but in Yu Shan's heart..."
After Gu Qianluo's decisive words, Chen Jinheng's cold eyes gradually brightened, and a barely perceptible smile appeared on his lips. He spoke with rare generosity,
“Yu Shan is very clever. If you take a fancy to any young master, just tell your sister-in-law. She will surely help you find a match.”
Zhang's intention in inviting Gu Qianluo to the meeting today was not entirely to explain matters, but rather to bring Yu Shan and Chen Jinheng together.
Gu Qianluo had long seen through Zhang's intentions. However, she not only refused to take her bait, but also wanted to completely dismantle Zhang's hypocritical "stage".
Zhang had no idea that Chen Jinheng would actually add fuel to the fire for Gu Qianluo, burning her intentions to ashes.
