Chapter 690: Two Old Masters! (2)

“That’s impossible!” Zhou Chao shook his head hastily.

As soon as the words fell, the voices of the two men came to mind again.

“Xiao Lao, you have nothing to say this time, right? General, you lost!” A slightly smug voice rang out.

“I’m done playing, it’s no fun at all!” Old Master Xiao directly pushed the table away and stopped playing.

Several people who were eavesdropping behind couldn’t help but smirk.

Zhou Chao also knew it was time for him and his friends to show up. If Old Master Xiao found out they were eavesdropping on him, it would be troublesome.

He gestured to Jiang Li, who quickly shouted, “Grandpa, we’ve come to see you!”

Immediately, Zhou Chao led Jiang Li out from behind.

Old Master Xiao, who was sulking with his old friend, turned around eagerly when he heard Jiang Li’s voice and happily stood up when he saw Zhou Chao and the others.

“Oh, my good granddaughter, why are you here, Grandpa? You’re pregnant so you should sit down quickly!”

Old Master Xiao quickly offered his chair to her.

“Grandpa, it’s okay, I’ve just been staying at home for too long, so I came out for a walk to relax!”

Upon hearing this, Old Master Xiao became displeased and fixed his gaze on Zhou Chao. “Young man, you don’t spend enough time at home with your wife. You’re always running around outside. People who don’t know might think you’re busy every day!”

Now Zhou Chao was puzzled, he wanted to explain, but he didn’t know where to start. It seemed like there was some truth to what was said. Although he had been traveling around a lot recently, it was mostly for leisure.

“Lao Xiao shouldn’t vent his frustrations on the younger generation. Besides, this young man looks so handsome and sensible. He’s obviously a responsible kid.” At this moment, the old man sitting on the chair spoke up.

“Who’s venting frustrations on the younger generation?” Old Master Xiao, who was caught off guard, looked somewhat annoyed as he stared at him.

The old man on the chair didn’t even glance at him, but instead looked at Zhou Chao and the others.

“I’m Lao Xiao’s comrade-in-arms. We’ve carried guns and endured shells together in the past. You can call me Grandpa Chen. You must be Zhou Chao, the one Lao Xiao often mentions. Come, have a seat!”

“Who often mentions him? Not me!” Old Master Xiao quickly denied.

But Zhou Chao and the others understood what was going on!

“Grandpa Chen!” Zhou Chao quickly greeted. If he could carry guns with Old Master Xiao, then this old man’s background wasn’t simple either.

“Lao Xiao, you’re really lucky to have such a good son-in-law. If he’s as capable as you say, I think your Xiao family would be unstoppable, if not having smoke rising from their main tomb... No, at least they’d have been struck by lightning to be this powerful!”

As good friends and comrades for so many years, they had heard about Zhou Chao’s deeds.

Seeing is believing. No matter how much they heard, it wasn’t as reliable as seeing it themselves. Today was a wish come true.

“Hehe, are you jealous of me?” Old Master Xiao said somewhat proudly.

Grandpa Chen glanced at him, indicating he didn’t want to engage.

Two hours passed in the blink of an eye, and Zhou Chao had prepared a table full of dishes.

“Grandpa, Grandpa Chen, lunch is served!” Jiang Li, with her big belly, leaned over and shouted.

“Here we are!” The two had already smelled the fragrance wafting from the kitchen. If not for maintaining their dignity, they would have rushed into the kitchen long ago.

As they entered the living room, they saw a table full of dishes. Smelling the fragrance in the air, Grandpa Chen couldn’t help smacking his lips!

“Smells good. I’ll let you have some luck today!” Old Master Xiao said somewhat proudly.

“Hmph, it’s as if you made them yourself!”

Then everyone sat down, ready to start eating. Just as they were about to pick up their chopsticks, Old Master Xiao said, “Hey, Xiao Wu, go to the wine cabinet at the back and bring out a few bottles of good wine!”

Lin Wu was stunned for a moment. He hadn’t expected Old Master Xiao to call him. It was only after Zhou Chao coughed lightly that he snapped out of it and hurried towards the wine cabinet.

In no time, he came back with three bottles of well-packaged Maotai. But when Old Master Xiao saw these bottles of wine, his expression changed instantly.

And Zhou Chao also recognized that these wines were the precious Maotai collection that Xiao Yang had taken from his wine cellar before. He hadn’t expected them to end up in Old Master Xiao’s hands!

“Grandpa, your wine!” Lin Wu carefully placed the bottles on the table.

“You kid really knows how to choose. You brought out my best wine!” Old Master Xiao said through gritted teeth. Although he wanted Lin Wu to take them back, he didn’t want to lose face in front of his old comrade.

Lin Wu didn’t think much about it and directly said, “I’ve seen many of these wines at the boss’s place before. I’m not familiar with the others, so I brought them out!”

Upon hearing this, Zhou Chao burst into laughter in his heart. “Lin Wu, this guy, knows how to act dumb just to get a sip of good wine!”

“You, Lao Xiao, hiding such good wine and not bringing it out to drink. If this little brother hadn’t brought out the wrong wine, I would have missed out!”

Grandpa Chen wasn’t one to hold back. While he was speaking, his hand wasn’t honest, as it reached for the Maotai and uncapped it, pouring himself a full glass and even taking a sniff.

Seeing that the matter was settled, Old Master Xiao didn’t have any resentment either and also took a bottle.

“We won’t go home until we’re drunk at noon today!” Old Master Xiao said generously.

Thus began a tumultuous banquet at the wine table!
