"Long time no see, Mrs. Wu."
"Long time no see, Mrs Ma."
Mother Wu and the other wives exchanged pleasantries.
"Oh right, Mrs. Wu, where did you find this young man? He's so handsome and delicate, isn't your husband jealous?"
"Aiyo, before this, Mrs. Wu said she wouldn't look for me, but we knew that this search was already so cool."
Mother Wu was embarrassed by their comments. She looked at the jeering wives and didn't know what to do.
"Greetings beautiful ladies, I am Wu Chen, and this is my mother."
Wu Chen stepped forward, protected his mother behind him, and gracefully bowed as he stated his identity.
Wu Chen knew that his own family was one of the top families. It was normal for people to make malicious guesses and mock him, but he just could not stand for his mother to be told by others.
When the ladies heard Wu Chen's identity, and looked back at his etiquette, they all knew that it was a misunderstanding. After all, it wasn't something that could be learned in a short period of time.
At this point, the gentlemen noticed that something was wrong and came over.
Even though the ladies did not know who Wu Chen was, it did not mean that the gentlemen did not. Ever since Wu Chen had taken over the business, the ones who were discussing the business were all Wu Chen.
"CEO Wu, hello."
"Nice to meet you again."
One of them greeted them first as Wu Chen stepped forward to shake hands.
At this moment, after his father and the master of the Lin Clan had finished their conversation, he rushed over.
"Aiya, CEO Wu, it's been a long time."
"Long time no see, long time no see."
Everyone hurriedly went forward to greet Wu Zongming as soon as they saw him. Although Wu Chen was in charge of managing the company, Wu Zongming's dad was still the boss of the company.
"Boss Wu, you really have a promising young son. The last time you sent him to discuss business, I didn't really trust him at first, but this young man's thinking is really broad."
Wu Haoyuan's father laughed as he accepted their praises. His son was really trying his best.
"Oh right, gentlemen, can I trouble you to remember to teach your wife well when you're not working in the future?"
Wu Chen did not give any face at all. Bullsh * t, did their family even need to give face to others? In the past, it was all because of Father Wu and Mother Wu that they were bullied by others.
"What did CEO Wu say?"
"Just now, my wives mistook me for someone my mother had taken care of. Although it's not wrong, as my mother and father pulled me up, please don't make jokes like this again. My parents are gentle and won't hold it against me, but as my son, I won't tolerate being slandered on my parents."
Upon hearing Wu Chen's words, the few old masters looked at their wives, causing the wives to lower their heads in panic. They all knew that Wu Chen was telling the truth.
These women were truly shameful, causing trouble for themselves all day long. This was what all the gentlemen present were thinking in their hearts.
"Look, Mrs. Wu, CEO Wu, I'm really sorry. I was the one who failed to discipline you."
"Yeah, yeah."
"Mrs. Wu, don't be angry. I'll teach them a good lesson when we get back."
Wu Mu shook her head to indicate that it was alright, and the gentlemen turned to look at Wu Chen. They realised now that the young master of the Wu family was very fond of him, and could be considered to be in charge of the Wu family.
"Since mother said it doesn't matter, I don't have any objections to this matter. I just hope that you ladies will pay attention to what you say in the future. After all, I represent a company, a matter of reputation."
After Wu Chen said this, he led his father and mother away. Behind them, the other men were all berating their wives.
Father Wu held Mother Wu's hand. It seemed that over all these years, she had suffered because of this. Father Wu knew that he was not the type to be nosy about things, and sometimes his wife would ask him if he was alright.
He didn't expect that for so long, his mother was bullied by these ladies.
Wu's mother squeezed Wu's father's hand, and her eyes told him that she was fine, and that their son could back them up.
Father Wu looked at Wu Chen gratifyingly. Yes, it was pretty good.
With just a small incident, the banquet was held as scheduled.
"Welcome to my daughter's birthday party. I am extremely grateful. Next, I announce the start of the birthday party!"
A burst of gunfire, flowers flying all over the roof, a yellow-haired girl in gorgeous pants came down the stairs.
"Darling, why are you dressed like this?"
"Dad, it's so comfortable, those dresses are too complicated."
The girl gave her father a lively wink.
"Everyone, I'm sorry. My daughter is very lively, so there's nothing she can do about it."
Uncle Lin's voice was filled with affection towards his daughter.
But there were always some people who liked to look for trouble.
"Boss Lin, don't banquets usually need to be dressed in formal attire? Does your esteemed miss look down on us?"
"Mrs. Zhou, look at what you're saying."
"That's true. Miss Lin's mother passed away a long time ago, so no one that taught Miss Lin anything is right."
Madame Zhou's words lowered the temperature of the party to a freezing point. Wasn't this clearly a way to ruin the party by bringing up the matter of someone else's deceased mother at a birthday party?
Wu Chen frowned, this Madame Zhou was the one who owed him the most, the one who raised her head and jeered at his mother just now was her.
"Isn't it nice to be dressed like this? Also, isn't my birthday the biggest birthday? I don't seem to need the guidance of an outsider to wear it, do I?"
Wu Chen picked up the wine cup in the waiter's hand, poured two cups of wine and handed one to Miss Lin.
"Happy Birthday to Miss Lin."
Miss Lin generously received the wine cup and downed it in one gulp. Wu Chen laughed, and also raised his head to drink.
"What's more, when other people mention other people's mothers at their birthday party, are they doing this on purpose or without a home tutor? I really admire Mrs. Zhou's husband for bringing her out."
"You! What do you mean! "
Madame Zhou was angered to the point that her face turned purple. She dared to speak out against Wu Chen because she knew that no one would criticize her openly, but she never expected that Wu Chen would not give her face.
"Also, Mrs. Wu, do you know anything about this? Miss Lin is wearing Rusty's latest pantsuit, which is worth a villa. Miss Lin is wearing this villa, don't you think we should give you some face?"
Wu Chen's words made Mrs. Zhou speechless. Mr. Zhou looked at his wife in disdain.
"CEO Wu, don't be angry, I won't bring her out in the future."
"Mrs. Zhou didn't piss me off. Why are you apologizing to me?"
"Oh, oh, oh, yes, yes. Miss Lin, I'm really sorry. Your clothes are very pretty. I was the one who taught my wife that I didn't have enough strength. I will definitely teach her well in the future."
