“Well…” Hearing Cui Yunrong’s question, Chen Zheng immediately shrank his hand but stretched it out immediately.
Originally, Chen Zheng thought that a junior did this to his hand, which is too shameful.
But after thinking about it, it seems that there will be no loss since he can use Cui Yunrong to teach lessons to that kid from the Lin family.
After all, it was Lin Yuan who was ‘really’ at fault.
Chen Zheng smiled bitterly and said: “Lieutenant General Cui, it's nothing, it’s just a little conflict with a junior at the banquet and my hand was smashed. I always remember your teaching that to serve as a soldier is to serve the people and to absolutely not have any conflict with the people. So, it’s okay to get hurt.”
Hearing Chen Zheng’s response, Cui Yunrong frowned.
Chen Zheng was secretly happy because he knew that even though Cui Yunrong didn’t say anything, he is very protective of the soldiers.
Chen Zheng’s words were like saying that he was bullied by a junior and that he didn’t dare to fight back because of his status as a soldier.
Cui Yunrong has always been very good to soldiers. How can he tolerate such disrespect? He will definitely help him.
“That junior is…?” Cui Yunrong just wanted to ask a question but was suddenly interrupted.
“Old Cui, come and taste the century-old wine from Mei family’s wine collection. It is absolutely delicious. It was specially opened for Old Cui to come here.” Mei Yuxian suddenly smiled at Cui Yunrong.
Mei Yuxian’s sudden interruption made Cui Yunrong and Chen Zheng frown.
They are not stupid.
It can be deduced that Mei Yuxian interrupted Cui Yunrong on purpose.
Why interrupt? Neither Chen Zheng nor Cui Yunrong knew the reason for Mei Yuxian’s interruption.
Mei Yuxian is very fond of Lin Yuan and disgusted with Chen Zheng.
Now Chen Zheng wanted to use Cui Yunrong to deal with Lin Yuan, and she had no choice but to interrupt.
Although she knew that this might offend Cui Yunrong, she still did it.
Lin Yuan also helped her once before, and when he called her Sister Yuxian, it made her very happy.
So, if Cui Yunrong is wicked, she will accept the same if she can protect Lin Yuan.

He perceives Mei Yuxian as a smart and realistic woman.
But now, she is not afraid of offending Cui Yunrong for him.
It seems that the increase in Mei Yuxian’s favorability is really useful.
Lin Yuan had planned to greet Cui Yunrong but he was too lazy to squeeze in at first because there were so many people.
Then Chen Zheng went up to him.
After seeing Chen Zheng come up to him, Lin Yuan is not anxious at all.
He poured himself a glass of red wine, ate a bite of cake, and crossed his legs.
Lin Yuan watched Chen Zheng’s actions quietly.
If Chen Zheng doesn’t do anything stupid, he can finish writing up Cui Yunrong’s chess guide and he shall be fine when he leaves.
But since Chen Zheng really wants to die, he will take off the epaulets from Chen Zheng’s shoulder today!
And Cui Yunrong who was suddenly interrupted by Mei Yuxian frowned at Mei Yuxian.
He understood that Mei Yuxian is interrupting him deliberately.
She obviously wants to protect the junior who did that to Chen Zheng’s hand.
He was annoyed slightly.
But he remembered that Lin Yuan bought the ‘Ink Plum Blossom’ painting to give to the head of the Mei family.
Thinking of Lin Yuan, Cui Yunrong didn’t say anything.
Cui Yunrong didn’t care much about it and put the issue aside, and first look for Lin Yuan.
But he couldn’t hide his annoyance and said lightly: “Patriarch Mei, I don’t need any wine. I’m here to meet someone.”
Mei Yuxian breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Cui Yunrong because it seemed that although Cui Yunrong was a little dissatisfied with and did not want any wine, he did not intend to be angry with her.
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "64cc9e79c7059f003e4ad4b0", id: "pf-5109-1"})Many guests looked at Mei Yuxian in surprise.
Why does Mei Yuxian have such a big face while talking to Cui Yunrong?
Could it be that the strength of the Mei family has grown quietly again?
Not only did Cui Yunrong come to celebrate her birthday, but he also didn’t care about Mei Yuxian’s offensive actions.
In addition, who is this person that Cui Yunrong wanted to meet?
It seems that he is here especially for that person.
The hall is too big.
Cui Yunrong looked around but did not find Lin Yuan.
Because the hall is too big, and Lin Yuan is seated, Cui Yunrong had a hard time finding him.
So, Cui Yunrong immediately asked Chen Zheng on the side: “Chen Zheng, did you see little friend Lin?”
“Have you all seen Little Friend Lin? Did he leave already?” Cui Yunrong also asked other people at the same time.
“Little Friend Lin?” Chen Zheng was a little dazed.
Everyone also looked confused.
It seemed to be surnamed Lin, but there was more than one Lin here.
“Lieutenant General Cui, who is this Little Friend Lin you are talking about? “Chen Zheng asked.
Cui Yunrong patted his forehead,” Oh I’m getting old. I almost forgot that you don’t know Little Friend Lin. I was talking about Lin Yuan. I came to see him specially.”
As soon as Cui Yunrong said this, the audience became silent in an instant. Nobody spoke and even a needle dropping could be heard.
Cui Yunrong didn’t pay attention to the sudden silence and continued: “I have two purposes for coming here. The first one is obviously to celebrate the birthday of this little girl from the Mei family.”
At Cui Yunrong’s age, it is okay to call Mei Yuxian a‘ little girl’.
He continued: “As for the second one, it is to find Little Friend Lin who came to me to buy a very special painting to give as a birthday gift to the little girl of the Mei family.”

They originally thought that Cui Yunrong came to Mei’s house to wish Mei Yuxian a happy birthday in which they thought further that Mei Yuxian’s circle has grown bigger.
It turned out that he was here to meet with Lin Yuan.
Wait?!
It is to meet with Lin Yuan?!
Compared to the Mei family, does Cui Yunrong favor, Lin Yuan, more?
Everyone was stunned again.
At this time, Chen Zheng realized something. He felt that something was not right and so he moved backward slowly and was ready to leave immediately.
He felt that the situation was not good.
Lin Yuan who was full and drunk, stood up and shouted: “Old man Cui!”
Then, with a smile on Cui Yunrong’s face, he walked towards him.
“Little friend Lin, I have finally found you!”
Seeing Lin Yuan, Cui Yunrong was even more excited than Lin Yuan.
He walked towards Lin Yuan excitedly.
Cui Yunrong was very happy to see Lin Yuan because he searched for a long time today to find a few chess guides similar to what Lin Yuan gave him.
He felt very disappointed not to find a similar one and afraid that he will be beaten by those old men back home.
But although excited, he didn’t forget about Chen Zheng.
So, while leaving, he called Chen Zheng.
“Come with me. Once I am done talking to Little Friend Lin, let us deal with the junior who dare to bully you.” Cui Yunrong said to Chen Zheng who was currently behind him.
Hearing Cui Yunrong’s words, Chen Zheng’s footsteps stiffened and he wore a smile that’s uglier than when crying.
