"I can't believe it. I never thought that my beloved and capable general is actually afraid of his wife. Do you think those defeated generals under your command would be so angry that they can't even eat if they know about this?" Zhou Chen said with a smile.
"Have you laughed enough? If so, please shut your mouth. Thank you." Xu Shike said expressionlessly.
Zhou Chen smiled for a while before he put the smile back on his face.
"I want to tell you something." He pointed to the empty seat next to him, "Sit down and talk."
Zhou Chen glanced at the empty chair behind him, nodded, and sat down without saying a word.
Xu Shike waited until he sat down before he began, "I asked Steven to do me a favor. If I'm not mistaken, your sworn enemy will probably show off in front of you in the next couple of days. You should make him happy. After all, this is the only thing he can do. Let's make him happy first."
After hearing what he said, Zhou Chen raised his eyebrows. "What do you mean? Why do I feel like there's something else behind your words? Have you been up to something without me knowing?"
Xu Shike smiled calmly and said, "What's the point of playing tricks? Am I that kind of person? I'm just giving him a taste of his own medicine. Duan Haoran doesn't usually do things in an upright manner, so why should I fight him openly? I'm not a fool, I'm not sick."
After listening to this, Zhou Chen stroked his chin and stared at his face for a long moment. "Xu Shike, you know, I'm actually a little glad we're not rivals. Otherwise, I really wouldn't be your match. You're not that old, how come you're more meticulous and capable than me? People who don't know you would think you're an old man in his sixties."
Xu Shike smiled and thought to himself, isn't he an old man in his sixties? If you add up his two lives, he has lived more than twenty years longer.
"My age is written on my resume, so I don't need to explain it again," he said with a smile.
The other side.
On the Duan family's side.
Tonight, the entire Duan family was invited to a dinner at the home of the old man of the Duan family.
Of course, the illegitimate son Duan Haoran also joined the dinner.
Originally, he had no part in this kind of activity a few years ago. Later, with his unremitting efforts, he achieved his current status. The people from the Duan family saw that he was useful, so they called him back to the Duan family and asked him to sit at the table with them for dinner.
In the hall filled with Chinese flavor, Mr. Duan looked at his grandchildren and great-grandchildren with satisfaction.
"Haoran, you are old now. Don't spend all your time on your career. You also have to take care of your family. A successful man must not only build a career but also start a family." Old Master Duan was eating, and his serious and sharp eyes looked at Duan Haoran who was sitting and eating not far away from him from time to time.
"Yes, grandpa, I understand." Duan Haoran responded indifferently.
At this moment, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Duan family glared at Duan Haoran with an indignant look on her face, "If Haoran doesn't have time to arrange a blind date, as your aunt, I can help you find a wife for you."
Duan Haoran put down the dishes in his hands, gently raised his eyes and looked at the aunt with a malicious face, "Thank you, auntie, but no need, I want to handle my lifelong affairs myself, thank you."
