440: C440 Chen Guang Was a Relative of Xiaozui?

C440 Chen Guang Was a Relative of Xiaozui?

The old lady of Chen family did not look up at Chen Xiaozui. Instead, she was playing with a jade ring on her finger, as if she was thinking about something.

Chen Shuang quickly added, "Grandma, our Chen family has always paid attention to the rules. If there is one on the list, then there is one. If there is one, then there is one. If there is no one, then there is no one. We cannot break the rules."

The old lady of Chen family still did not speak. After a long while, she slowly opened her mouth and said, "What do you have to say?"

This sentence was clearly meant for Chen Xiaozui to hear.

Chen Xiaozui took a step forward and politely said, "Grandma, although I am not on the list, I am still a direct descendant of the Chen family. I think there is nothing wrong with me coming to congratulate my grandma."

"Bullshit!"

Chen Liping rolled her eyes and said, "Rules are rules. Don't try to get close to me. I have never seen someone as thick-skinned as you. Grandma, look at this person..."

"Shut up!"

The old lady of Chen family frowned and said, "Why are you making so much noise? What do you look like?!"

After she finished speaking, she gently exhaled and said indifferently, "Since you're here, sit down."

"Thank you, grandma."

Chen Xiaozui politely thanked him and then quickly pulled Ye Wuji to sit down.

The atmosphere of the banquet did not have laughter and laughter. Instead, it seemed a little depressing and depressing.

Ye Wuji could understand that this kind of large family had many broken rules. A table for a meal, ten people could have twelve thoughts.

But to Ye Wuji, all these were just floating clouds. Even when he participated in the banquet of a king, he did not care about anything and just started to eat.

After returning to the country, he did the same thing. However, he was worried about Chen Xiaozui today. Besides, he was not too hungry, so he did not do anything reckless. He just sat by the side and lost his mind out of boredom.

Chen Xiaozui did not speak either. The atmosphere in the room was as oppressive as it could be. It did not seem like she was celebrating her birthday at all. Instead, it seemed like she was holding a memorial service.

At this time, Chen Liping saw that there was no movement from the crowd. She suddenly cleared her throat and gently nudged Xu Chengzhi with her elbow. Then she smiled at the old lady and said, "Grandma, Zhi heard that you usually like to take a few sips."

"So this time, he specially brought you a few boxes of cigarettes from the Middle East for you to taste."

When the old lady heard this, her two eyes clearly flashed with a touch of spirit. "Oh? A cigarette from the Middle East? I've never tried it before. "

The old lady of Chen family was a workaholic. She spent most of her time working, and she was a very ambitious person.

She didn't have many hobbies, but she liked to smoke a few times. She relied very much on the taste of cigarettes.

Xu Chengzhi quickly took out a few boxes of cigarettes from his bag and stood up. He smiled at the old lady and said, "Grandma, this kind of cigarette is specially supplied by the royal family of the Middle East. Ordinary people can't buy it even if they have money."

"I only got a few boxes because of a lot of connections. Grandma, please try it."

As Xu Chengzhi spoke, he opened one box and took out a cigarette. He bent down and respectfully lit it for the old lady.

For a moment, the whole room was filled with a sweet fragrance.

The old lady took a deep breath and exhaled a long breath of smoke. With a drunken look, she said, "What a good cigarette. Zhi is really considerate."

"As long as Grandma likes it!"

Chen Liping saw that her boyfriend got Grandma's recognition and could not help but be happy.

Naturally, she could not hide her feelings. She rolled her eyes and said, "I am Grandma's granddaughter. The boyfriend I find will definitely not bring shame to our Chen family."

"It's not like some people. They can pick up any random person from the market. It's understandable that they have a strong taste, but they lose out to the people of our Chen family!"

The old lady frowned slightly. Although she didn't say anything, there was a flash of displeasure in her eyes.

From the beginning to the end, the old lady did not speak to Chen Xiaozui. She did not even take a look at Chen Xiaozui and treated her as air.

Not to mention Ye Wuji, it was as if he did not exist.

Of course, Ye Wuji could see that although the old lady had ignored him and Chen Xiaozui with her eyes, she had already examined him countless times in her heart.

The reason why she made such a gesture was that she was waiting for Chen Xiaozui and him to be the first to speak and fall into a passive position.

It seemed that this old lady was definitely not an ordinary person to be able to firmly control the Chen family, one of the three great clans of Tianhai.

Her position was not something that the previous Xia Zhicai of the Xia family could compare with.

Of course, Ye Wuji and Chen Xiaozui were not easy to deal with either. They knew very well what the old lady was thinking in her heart.

Therefore, they chose not to make any moves. They had a mental battle with the old lady in secret. It would depend on who was the first one to lose control.

"Grandma, slow down. I still have a few boxes here. You can take them all. If you finish, I will think of a way to get some from the Middle East."

Xu Chengzhi smiled and put the remaining boxes of cigarettes in front of the old lady.

"Mom, if you like them, I will ask Chen Guang to think of a way to get some special cigarettes from Tianhai Warzone."

"I heard that other than having strong combat strength, the Tianhai Warzone also has a special cigarettes. Ordinary people won't be able to smoke them easily. This is much more valuable than the cigarettes from outside."

The one who spoke was a middle-aged woman who was wearing expensive clothes and had a thick lipstick on her lips.

She was also the only one present. Apart from the old lady, she was the one with the highest seniority.

The reason why the old lady made an exception to invite her to this birthday banquet was because she had a very capable son. He had accidentally entered the Tianhai Warzone and joined the famous Sky Sea Iron Guard!

To the Chen family, this was definitely a matter that would bring honor to their ancestors!

When the name Chen Guang was mentioned, the old lady's eyes were filled with pride as she said with a smile, "Little Guang, this child has brought honor to our Chen family."

"But he is only a soldier now. He doesn't have the authority to get special cigarettes."

"But when he comes over later, if he can bring me one or two cigarettes to taste, I will be satisfied."

"Chen Guang?"

When Ye Wuji heard this name, a person suddenly popped up in his mind.

Chen Xiaozui, who was beside him, said in a low voice, "My aunt's son has advanced to the Tianhai Warzone for a few months."

Ye Wuji thought for a moment and asked, "Is he tall, strong, and his skin a little dark?"

"Well, how do you know?"

Chen Xiaozui was puzzled.

"What are you two muttering about? You have no manners at all. Seriously!"

At this moment, Chen Liping quickly took advantage of the opportunity and retorted. Then, she smiled flatteringly at the old lady and said, "Grandma, today is your birthday. Why don't you take apart a box of cigarettes that Zhi specially made for you and let everyone try it together?"

"I'm not as happy as everyone else. It can be considered a benefit that grandma gave everyone."

The old lady nodded in satisfaction. "Then open a box. Everyone can try it."2

There was a tradition in Chen family. Most people, regardless of whether they were male or female, would smoke. This had something to do with the old lady's hobby.

It was as if learning how to smoke could shorten the distance between them and the old lady. Therefore, when they heard that the old lady was willing to share the cigarettes, everyone looked forward to it.

After all, this was the specialised cigarettes provided by the royal family of the Middle East. It was not something that ordinary people could enjoy.

"Don't smoke later."

Ye Wuji suddenly suppressed his voice and said to Chen Xiaozui.

"Why?"

Chen Xiaozui asked curiously.

Ye Wuji closed his mouth with one hand and put his head next to Chen Xiaozui's ear. He gently spat out a few words, "This smoke is fake."
