After Chen Hansheng's lip-syncing was discovered, Lao Xiao took a few steps to the stage, took the microphone and talked about his feelings about his daughter's 20th birthday.
First, to ease Chen Hansheng's embarrassment, and second, to worry that he would do something weird again and delay his speech.
"Twenty years ago, when you were born, Dad watched you waving your little arms, and at that time I thought this is my daughter, a daughter I will protect and love for my whole life..."
Lao Xiao's speech was very emotional, because these were all his true feelings, just like writing essays in high school, the Chinese teacher often asked us to write about what really happened, so that the examiner could feel involved.
So when Lao Xiao spoke, many relatives and friends who were parents in the banquet hall were all immersed in it.
Liang Meijuan was also very touched, and said to her husband: "Han Sheng was also very cute when he was a child. When I got off work, he stood at the door, holding the door frame and shouted loudly, 'Mom is back'. I was busy all day, and as long as I heard this voice, my heart was instantly filled with strength."
Chen Zhaojun rolled his eyes at his wife: "When he called like this, it was basically because he got into trouble and pretended to be good because he was afraid of being beaten. Think about it carefully, right?"
Liang Meijuan tilted her head and thought about it, and suddenly hit Lao Chen: "Can you not remind me so bluntly, so that I can keep a good impression."
Lao Chen shook his head helplessly, and Xiao Hongwei on the stage spoke more and more deeply, causing Xiao Yuer to burst into tears.
She didn't know how a real princess lived, but in the first twenty years of her life, her parents did love her like they held her in their hands.
"I hope you can be better to me in the years to come."
Xiao Yuer turned her eyes to someone, he was the emcee of this banquet, even if his lip-syncing and fake playing were exposed, he could not leave the stage, and he handed over tissues from time to time because Lao Xiao was a little choked up.
"Uncle Xiao, it's almost done."
Chen Hansheng turned off the microphone and quietly reminded: "Don't act like Xiaoyuer is getting married. Keep some thoughts and wait until she gets married. It's already 12:30, and everyone has to eat."
Xiao Hongwei had a lot of emotions that he hadn't expressed yet. The one who wasted the most time seemed to be the MC pretending to be innocent. Old Xiao didn't care about the younger generation. He just glanced at him and said meaningfully: "Some things, in fact, I also told you."
After Xiao Hongwei went down, Chen Hansheng silently spread his hands: "Why tell me, I'm just a child."
Fortunately, all the procedures were finally completed and the waiter could serve the dishes.
As for the effect, you can see the deep affection in Xiao Rongyu's eyes.
During the meal, Chen Hansheng sat next to Liang Meijuan and greeted her with a flattering face: "Mom~"
"Oh, isn't this Master Chen?"
Liang Meijuan sneered: "Why are you at our table?"
Chen Hansheng smiled and called to Old Chen: "Dad~"
"Well, let's eat first."
Chen Zhaojun had a dull expression as before, but he handed his clean bowl and chopsticks to Chen Hansheng first.
Watching his son wolfing down the food, his wife habitually scolded him beside him, and Old Chen also had a trace of calm satisfaction in his eyes.
"Mom."
Chen Hansheng was eating and suddenly remembered something: "You asked me to watch the Sharp LCD TV in Jianye, I forgot about it."
"Not surprising, you are either taking the first female guest to visit relatives or celebrating the birthday of the second female guest. Parents are not as important as a beautiful girl."
Liang Meijuan ridiculed her son mercilessly.
Chen Zhaojun was a little surprised: "Why watch LCD TV? Don't we have a color TV at home?"
"My mother cares about your eyes."
Chen Hansheng said with a smile: "She said this at the time. After work, she only knew to hold the TV. I have to take care of her eyes even if she is blind. Let your father watch LCD TV. Sister Mao in the unit said that the material is less harmful to the eye membrane, but it is not available in Gangcheng. You can help Jianye to take a look."
"I have been feeling that I have forgotten an important thing in my life recently, but fortunately, I have asked my secretary to buy it."
Chen Hansheng revealed an important information that he has a secretary.
However, Lao Chen and Liang Meijuan just discussed LCD TV by themselves.
"I heard that LCD TVs are more than 10,000 yuan now, which is too expensive."
Chen Zhaojun said with a frown.
Liang Meijuan curled her lips: "It's okay, your son is rich, he can spend 100,000 yuan to buy a car for a girl, what's wrong with giving his father a TV?"
Chen Zhaojun nodded: "It seems to make sense."
Liang Meijuan snorted: "Don't save money in the future, otherwise it will be a big loss."
······
Chen Hansheng just watched his parents chatting, thinking that they didn't hear clearly, and emphasized: "That secretary is not bad. It can be said that I trained her. She is smart, loyal, and dares to speak out..."
"Are you listening?"
Chen Hansheng couldn't help complaining because his parents didn't care about him at all.
Liang Meijuan looked at Chen Hansheng at this time: "I didn't hear it. What did you say just now?"
"Forget it, you did it on purpose."
Chen Hansheng threw away the bowl and chopsticks, left his seat depressed, and couldn't even show off in front of his parents.
"Did you hear that? Our son has a secretary now."
Only then did Liang Meijuan touch Lao Chen's arm.
"It will be like this in the future."
Chen Zhaojun was very satisfied with the result: "He doesn't follow the rules and has a bit of a rebellious personality. If he does well, we should suppress his temper at home and not let him be proud all the time; if his business fails one day, we should encourage him and give him the courage and strength to start over again."
Liang Meijuan looked up and saw her son, with a cigarette in his mouth, talking to the classmate who had just come on stage with a smile on his face. She nodded slightly: "I'll listen to you."
······
Wang Zibo and Bian Shishi sat at a table alone. Chen Hansheng came over and made a few jokes, and then came to the table of Xiao Hongwei's family.
Xiao Rongyu's eyes never left Chen Hansheng. Girls like her are easily angry but also very easy to coax. What Chen Hansheng did today, including lip-syncing, is enough for Xiao Yuer to remember for a lifetime.
"Hansheng, have you finished eating so quickly?"
Lu Yuqing asked.
"Yes."
Chen Hansheng blinked at Xiao Rongyu and said with a smile: "Let me discuss how to arrange these classmates?"
"How to arrange?"
Xiao Rongyu was stunned for a moment: "I will go back to school tomorrow, so shouldn't we go back together?"
"It's okay to go back together, but it's inevitable that you will owe favors."
Chen Hansheng explained: "For example, after you return to Dongda, when you face your roommates again, as long as you think that they have traveled hundreds of kilometers to Hongcheng to attend your birthday party, will your heart be filled with gratitude?"
Xiao Yuer thought about it and said honestly: "Yes."
Xiao Hongwei had just finished drinking, and he also leaned over with a red face to listen.
"That's it."
Chen Hansheng said, "Instead of owing this favor and having trouble doing things in the future, it's better to pay it back as soon as possible. I plan to invite them to Huaguo Mountain this afternoon. I'll pay for the tickets. In the evening, I'll invite them to have a skewers and sing songs. In short, let them spend the money and see it. In the end, everyone will be happy and will not owe each other anything."
"Hansheng makes sense."
Lao Xiao has been in the officialdom for so long that he immediately figured out the meaning. He knew that Chen Hansheng was planning for his daughter.
"We should pay this money."
Lu Yuqing said politely.
Chen Hansheng smiled and said nothing.
Xiao Hongwei glared at his wife: "Hansheng, thank you for your hard work."
"But I can't leave in the afternoon."
Xiao Yuer looked around: "There are relatives here."
"You don't have to go."
Chen Hansheng stood up: "Just stay at home with your relatives and leave it to me."
"Xiao Chen..."
Xiao Yuer reached out and grabbed the hem of Chen Hansheng's suit, looking up at him with dependence in her eyes.
Chen Hansheng smiled and patted her on the top of her head, then left.
"I raised a 20-year-old girl, and she has grown up since then!"
Lao Xiao sighed, and took two sips of wine. Only he knew what he felt in his heart.
