“Manager Chen, Manager Yang, please come in!” Zhou Naifu said hospitably, intending to seat several high-level executives from Modu Yida at the main table.

Feeling the envy from the onlookers, Zhou Naifu’s smile never wavered. He believed it was all thanks to his son’s efforts that these executives came to attend his father’s birthday banquet, completely oblivious to the changing expressions of Chen and his companions.

At that moment, Manager Chen felt anxious. After all, Zhou Chao hadn’t even taken his seat at the main table yet; how could they dare to sit down? But Zhou Tao gestured for him not to reveal his identity.

Manager Chen found himself in a dilemma, his gaze drifting towards Zhou Chao.

Seeing that Chen and his companions didn’t make a move, Zhou Naifu assumed they didn’t fancy the dishes on the table.

“Oh, Manager Chen, my apologies! I didn’t realize you were here in person. I’ve underestimated you. These home-cooked dishes might not suit your taste. Let me arrange something else right away. How about we move to another place for dinner? What do you think?”

The words startled Manager Chen, making his hands tremble slightly. If Zhou Chao took note of this, his days would be even more uncomfortable. He might even lose his position!

Glancing at Zhou Chao again and noticing no significant change in his expression, Manager Chen gritted his teeth and said, “No need. I love these dishes!”

Zhou Naifu’s smile deepened at Manager Chen’s response. “Well then, Manager Chen, please come in!”

Manager Chen, Manager Yang, and the others followed Zhou Naifu to the main table, sitting beside Zhou Lao Ye.

A thought flashed through Zhou Hao’s mind: “If it weren’t for my brother’s sake, would Manager Chen and the others come to grandfather’s birthday in person? There’s no need to think about it; Zhou Hao knew exactly what kind of dish he was.”

Zhou Chao smiled and glanced at Zhou Hao. “You’re talking about your dad like that. It’s okay; as long as he’s happy!”

Zhou Hao nodded in response. With things having come to this point, there was nothing more they could do!

With the help of the villagers who came to assist, the pots and pans were soon cleaned up, and by this time, the drinking at the main table was coming to an end.

Just as Zhou Chao was about to go upstairs to find Jiang Li, his uncle called out to him, “Xiao Chao, come here for a moment!”

Zhou Hao and Zhou Qi, who were nearby, prepared to watch the show.

With a hint of surprise in his eyes, Zhou Chao quickly walked over to the main table and glanced at Manager Chen and the others before finally fixing his gaze on his uncle. “Uncle, what’s the matter?”

Before Zhou Naifu could speak, Manager Chen stood up abruptly, drawing everyone’s attention. He was just about to speak when a stern look from Zhou Chao made him swallow his words.

“What’s wrong, Manager Chen?” Zhou Naifu quickly asked.

“It’s nothing. Perhaps I’ve been sitting for too long, and my legs are a bit sore. I just need to stretch my legs,” Manager Chen responded quickly, coming up with a lame excuse.

Everyone thought that Manager Chen was uncomfortable from sitting too long. After all, given his status, his words were quite convincing.

Zhou Naifu pulled Zhou Chao to his side and smiled at Manager Chen. “Manager Chen, this is my eldest nephew. His parents passed away early, and he has worked hard to get to where he is now. If you need him to help you with anything, please don’t hesitate to let us know..”
