Chapter 783: Only he dares to say this (Part Two)

“What do you mean by drinking and playing too much.” Old Master Ye glared at him.

Xu Cheng looked at him and said in a serious manner, “Especially you, Grandpa Ye, you have the biggest temper and are a bad drinker. You should restrain yourself a bit, I’m still waiting for you to live a long life again and continue to protect me.”

Old Master Ye felt speechless.

Old Master Zhou laughed loudly. “Brother Ye, only this kid dares to speak the truth. With your temper and strength, if we weren’t present, then nobody could hold you down after you drink. So you really do have to pay attention in the future to not affect the reputation you’ve built over a lifetime.”

He hadn’t finished laughing when Xu Cheng walked over and said, “Grandpa Zhou, don’t laugh at a hundred steps when you’re fifty steps away. Less tricks and more sincerity goes a long way. Look at your hair, you’re balding from all these tricks. No matter how good the medicine is, it won’t cure baldness. You’re all at an old age, and I know what you’re worried about. But please have faith in this generation, I believe that the other uncles can take care of the country.”

Old Master Zhou almost bit on his tongue.

The five Old Masters all fell silent after listening to Xu Cheng’s words.

The secretary who was responsible for pouring tea had cold sweat running down his back listening to what Xu Cheng had said.

Old Master Ye glared at Xu Cheng. “How dare you say such things?”

“Since you guys brought me in here, and also said that no more than ten people are qualified to enter, me being the tenth one. The other four must be the uncles then, right? They are your descendants so they dare not say this, and they wouldn’t dare to talk back under your authoritative position either. If I don’t say it, then who else dares to say it? If you really can’t take it in, then treat it as me talking nonsense after drinking this much tea. I’m not speaking for any of the uncles, but I just sincerely hope that you don’t have to work so hard at such an age and enjoy what you’ve brought to this era.”

After saying that, Xu Cheng stood up and got ready to leave.

The five Old Masters fell into silence.

After Xu Cheng walked out of the pavilion, Old Master Ye couldn’t help but ask, “Kid, I’ve always wanted to ask you a question. If one day, when you stand against the country, would you have confidence to make your way in here?”

Xu Cheng turned his head to look at the five Old Masters and grinned. “Yes! But there will never be a day like that because I treat the five of you as family. What I said just now was from a younger generation point of view, something from the bottom of my heart to the elderly who have worked all their lives.”

After saying that, he walked away.

Old Master Ye’s secretary did not know whether to escort him out or now, and Old Master Ye glared at him as he said, “Go give him a ride.”

The secretary followed Xu Cheng as he thought in his heart that Young Master Xu really dared to say anything, and the fact that he was able to get away with it just showed how important he was inside the five Old Masters’ hearts.

Old Master Ye looked at Xu Cheng’s figure as he walked away and sighed. “This kid’s becoming more and more mature.”

Old Master Zhou: “Mature? If he’s mature then would he have dared to talk like that just now?”

Old Master Nie: “I think he’s right that we do need to retire, a real retirement. He gave us twenty years more to live with our lives, and it’s not so that he wants us to work further. I think we need to let go of what’s in our hands and give the younger generation more opportunities.”

Old Master Guo: “If our sons had a tenth of this kid’s ability, then I would’ve retired way earlier for sure.”

Old Master Ye: “Don’t talk like Xu Cheng isn’t your grandson. Was it a lie when we took him in? Haven’t you heard what he said after? He’s treating us like family, and you’re all just being pretentious.”

The four of them laughed out loud.

“Brother Ye, you’re not even drunk yet, and you’re going to start playing drunk?”

Old Master Ye slapped the table. “I’m serious on this matter and to whoever’s being pretentious about it. I don’t need alcohol to help me say this! I am on this all the time and at any time!”

Xu Cheng got into the car with the secretary and left. He then subconsciously asked the secretary, “Do you know who Mu Wan is?”

The secretary smiled. “I do not know such a person. Young Master Xu, do you have any orders?”

Xu Cheng: “Nothing. I actually thought about what she said, and she was right that I am really ugly right now.”

The secretary narrowed his eyes and secretly noted the name in his mind.

He knew what to do.
