Chapter 212: The joke at the party



Lieutenant General Bai rubbed his head and pretended to be honest: "Hiss, are you all donating so much? Aren't donations usually one or two hundred? That's what the person who invited me said."

The two generals who were chatting next to him said helplessly, "You are a lieutenant general after all, so we will all donate one thousand."

"You can't say that. How would I have known that the Lu family had so many schemes? It turns out he wanted to embarrass me." Lieutenant General Bai turned the tables. That was what they had told him in the beginning.

Lieutenant General Bai's voice was quite loud and many people heard it. They felt that the Lu and Yi families seemed unreliable in doing things, which was not usually the case.

Even Lieutenant General Bai was deceived.

The Lu family's smiles fell: "..." When they said one or two hundred, they naturally meant one or two million. Lieutenant General Bai didn't understand, so couldn't he check the donation amounts in previous years?

It would have been fine if Su Xiaocai ignored the party, but Lieutenant General Bai didn't take it seriously either.

Last year, because of the insect-man disguise incident, everyone was worried and no action was taken.

This year, it has been directly lowered to a lower level.

The sudden and drastic drop in the amount of donations means that this gala has also entered the countdown and it is estimated that it will not be held for several years.

When Admiral Yi and Admiral Lu learned about this, they were a little angry.

He immediately sent a message to Mrs. Lu, accusing her of not doing her job properly.

Mrs. Lu, who had known for a long time that she would be blamed, threw out a divorce agreement and wanted to divorce Admiral Lu.

She didn't intend to do anything extreme, but she handed the matter of the party back to the Lu family and the Yi family according to their wishes.

They can't stand up on their own, and they blame her instead. So there's no need for her to talk about their friendship.

Mrs. Lu's strong demand for a divorce made the other four admirals sympathize with Admiral Lu. If the divorce was successful, Admiral Lu would have to leave his position as admiral.

The four of them and the one at the top would not allow a general to be followed by a large group of burdens.

Everyone knows that General Lu cannot control the Lu family.

Even if there are a few useless people in the Yi family, it does not prevent the majority of the others from working in various institutions.

The Lu family is different. They can’t start a business, only a few join the army, and none can pass the civil service exam. Their elders are unkind and their younger generations are incompetent.

The only one who is somewhat outstanding is General Lu’s son, but this son is not down-to-earth and has brought disaster to his father.

In a workplace where promotion is based on military achievements, relying on one's father is equivalent to giving up the path to the highest position.

Without General Lu, and if he doesn't climb high enough, he might just be stepped on by someone.
