The protagonist chased the villain, and Tiandao screamed in anger

In fact, Chi Zhen prepared much more than just a cake. He bought a limited edition sports car to give to You Mu on the same day, and booked a coastal vacation project, wanting to take the young man to go surfing at the beach.

The weather in Rongcheng is getting colder, but the temperature in coastal areas is very comfortable.

Knowing that You Mu likes exciting sports, and that he lives in Jiangcheng and seldom goes to the beach, this kind of new thing can best attract the young man's attention.

Chi Zhen had booked the yacht and plane tickets in advance, so he repeatedly reminded the other party to go home early. In fact, he wanted to take the other party to catch the flight as a surprise.

However, he was so angry in the bar that he didn't care about those things anymore.

Even though I missed the birthday surprise, there is no limit on this kind of thing, so I can make it up later.

The important thing is that Chi Zhen now has the person in his hand, unable to break free or run away.

Although the process was somewhat different from the plan, he was satisfied with the result, which was enough for him.

In addition to the original birthday plan, the planned coming-of-age ceremony was also postponed for a few days. After all, the new and old marks on You Mu's body had to be removed before he could see others.

The banquet was held in the old house. The Chi family chose the venue with great care. Even if there were deviations in time, which might cause some people to change their schedules, the Chi family was always unreasonable.

Although the date was postponed, everyone who was supposed to come still arrived on time, with smiles on their faces, hoping to gain more from this banquet called the Coming of Age Ceremony.

You Mu followed Chi Zhen, holding a wine glass and thanking those who came to congratulate him.

Chi Zhen and Song Feng reached a partial agreement, and after careful consideration of etiquette, they also sent invitations to the Song family for this banquet. Originally, it was thought that the Song family would not come, but Song Shuang brought Song Qingyang and Song Moyang to the banquet.

After meeting You Mu and handing over the gift, several people stood together and talked.

Chi Xuanming followed Chi Hua and hid in the corner after the social event. He watched Chi Yu walking around with one hand supporting You Mu's waist and back, drinking silently, and did not dare to go over.

Both the guests and the hosts had a great time at the banquet. The only one who looked unhappy was probably Mr. Chi in the backyard.

Presiding over the coming-of-age ceremony for a man from another family in the ancestral home was already a huge joke. Moreover, Chi Yu made his own decisions at the banquet and did not ask about his father, the elder of the Chi family.

Old Master Chi was so angry that he banged the ground with his walking stick.

"Grandpa, calm down. Your uncle must have his reasons for doing this. Since he didn't inform you, I think there are follow-up arrangements. We just wait." Chi Qiu pressed down Grandpa Chi's hand that was slapping the table and tried his best to dissuade him.

However, these words of dissuasion were like pouring fuel on the raging fire, making Mr. Chi even more angry.

"Humph! It's not his turn to bring an outsider to ruin this family. Xiaoqiu, help me over!"

The old man was hot-tempered and unwilling to admit his age, and even more unwilling to be ignored. He stood up with the help of his crutches, and pulled Chi Qiu to go to the banquet in the front hall.

"Grandpa, would you like to wait a little longer?"

Chi Qiu followed the old man and tried to dissuade him, but he held up the old man's arm and encouraged him to walk more steadily.

He came back secretly this time.

Chi Hua asked the old man for permission to bring him into the family business, saying that he needed to gain some experience first.

Chi Qiu was very excited at first, thinking that he finally had a way out, but he didn't expect that the other party's behavior was actually a promotion in name only, sending him to the edge of the area, which was of no value for his training.

When he was transferred to the grassroots construction site, Chi Qiu suddenly realized that his previous little tricks were discovered by Chi Hua, and the other party was removing obstacles for his son.

Unfortunately, the other party was using the old man's title, and any dissatisfaction he had was just a complaint against the arrangements made by his grandfather who loved him.

Mr. Chi, who has a strong temper, hates others disobeying him the most. Chi Qiu has always maintained a considerate and gentle temperament in front of the old man. If he makes the old man unhappy because of this, then all his efforts in the past few years to win the old man's favor will be in vain.

Having suffered a loss in silence, Chi Qiu was extremely angry and vowed not to let these people get away with it this time.

"What are you waiting for? Waiting for him to include that outsider in the family tree?"

In fact, Mr. Chi was angry not only because Chi Zhen did not ask for his opinion this time, but because he heard some rumors.

Last time at the bar and nightclub, Chi Yu never concealed his identity and carried people upstairs so blatantly. The crowd watching at the time was only focused on the excitement, but later, when they came to their senses, they realized that the two people were not of the right identity.

Gossip spreads faster and wider than anything else. It only takes a few group chats for it to spread throughout Rongcheng overnight.

When Mr. Chi heard about this, regardless of whether it was true or not, his first reaction was to pay someone to suppress it.

Chi Yuan's adopted son, the bloodline of the Song family, with such an identity and such a disgraceful thing, how could the head of the Chi family appear?

The last incident with Chi Yuan was already a lesson. This time, we cannot ignore anything Grandpa Chi says.

The old man walked into the banquet with a stern face. Chi Hua, who was welcoming guests on one side, saw him and put down his wine glass to greet him. When he saw Chi Qiu, his expression paused for a moment, and then he supported the old man from the other side and asked in a low voice:

"Dad, why are you here? There's an incense burner here, and the smell is strong. If you smell it too much, your rhinitis will come back." Seeing that the old man didn't look well, Chi Hua intended to pull him to a room away from the guests.

"Hmph! It's amazing that you still remember the illness of an old man like me!" The old man knocked his subordinate's crutch hard.

But even if he was angry, Mr. Chi knew that he couldn't bring this anger to the banquet. He still had to save face, and the Chi family also had to save face.

Leaning on a cane, he followed Chi Hua into the side room, sat on a chair, and immediately ordered Chi Hua to ask the other party to find Chi Zhen.

"Third brother is still at the banquet. Please wait a moment. I will go to look for him. But... why is Xiaoqiu back? I don't think I received your leave application. Besides, the project in the West District is at a critical moment. If you are not here... what will happen if something goes wrong?"

Chi Hua coaxed the old man, turned around and directed the conversation to Chi Qiu.

"...Um, second uncle, I haven't seen grandpa for a long time, and I heard that there's a banquet at home this time..." These words stumped Bai Qiu. He didn't expect Chi Hua to say it directly in front of the old man. After all, it was the other party who pretended to obey his orders and transferred him from his original position first.

"What project? Isn't Xiaoqiu an intern in your company?" As soon as these words came out, the old man became suspicious and asked with narrowed eyes.

Chi Hua had expected this question, and he came up with the answer he had prepared in advance: "Dad, it's like this. With Xiaoqiu's status, it's really unfair for him to be a department manager in my company. But he lacks experience. If he is transferred to another department as the head, it will be difficult to convince others. That's why I want him to go to the base to accumulate experience and qualifications, so that he can take over more in the future."

"This West District project is a collaboration with President Qin. It's very important. I gave it to Xiaoqiu only after I saw the plan... But I didn't expect this kid to be so confused and just abandon the project and come back!"

"I understand your filial piety, but work is not a joke...Okay, I'll go back and arrange this matter and find someone to help you. You can rest at home for a few days and accompany your grandfather."

Chi Hua's series of words left Chi Qiu no time to explain himself. After saying this, he took out his cell phone and arranged for other people to replace Chi Qiu as the project leader, and followed the old man's instructions to call Chi Zhen.

"Grandpa, I..." The person just left like that. Chi Qiu was anxious and angry, but he also knew that he had preconceived ideas and any further explanation he made would only make things worse.
