Chapter 295: Reversal (Third Update)
At this moment, Mr. Mai eagerly left Second Uncle Jiang aside and walked up to Elder Mai and Old Sir Zhong, bending over and smiling:
"Good day, Elder, do you remember me? I have always remembered you. The notebook you gave me twenty years ago, I still keep it."
Old Sir Zhong looked up at Mr. Mai with squinted eyes and smiled faintly: "It’s just a notebook, but I heard you’re doing pretty well now."
Upon hearing this, Mr. Mai was even more excited, reaching out and grabbing Old Sir Zhong’s hand, "More than twenty years ago, I... I wanted to shake hands with you, but I never had the chance. Now that I am finally qualified to shake your hand, you retired. Please don’t mind my abruptness, I just wanted to shake your hand."
Old Sir Zhong couldn’t help but laugh and turned to Elder Mai: "This young man is interesting."
Elder Mai scolded his son with a laugh: "You rascal, don’t embarrass yourself here, go and do what you should be doing." He then turned to Old Sir Zhong: "He’s so happy to see you, and I am happy too. If it wasn’t for my granddaughter, I wouldn’t know when I could see you again."
Old Sir Zhong waved his hand slightly.
Only then did the Mai father and son turned to greet Father Jiang, whose military position is high, and who had met the Mai father and son once or twice before.
The others in the room held their breath and watched carefully as the Mai father and son circled around Wan Chu’er’s grandfather; their hearts thumping.
Third Uncle Jiang rolled his eyes and stealthily made a gesture to his wife, Third Aunt Jiang nudged her daughter Jiang Lingling towards the direction of Wan Chu’er.
Reluctantly, Jiang Lingling walked over to Wan Chu’er.
At this time, Mai Qiqi, holding Wan Chu’er, was laughing and chatting with Jiang Xiaoxiao, clearly not taking anyone else around them seriously. Jiang Lingling reached them, but no one paid her any attention.
