Chapter 1422: An Invitation? What The Heck?
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Old Master Xu only had one son, Xu Ming. He was the dean of the Medical Affairs University and was a lieutenant general.
Today was Old Master Xu’s family banquet, and the guests invited were all old friends and acquaintances from the military base.
Therefore, the people who came today were not necessarily from wealthy families. There were also some from the younger generations that Old Master Xu liked even though they did not have a good family background. This was equivalent to providing them a platform to get to know the generals.
Nuannuan was supposed to go with Old Master Chi, her grandfather, uncles, and brothers, but she was worried about Feng Shengxuan, so she rushed over to the hospital first. She only left when Nangong Ze came to pick her up at half-past ten.
Nangong Ze was also a graduate of the Military Medical University, so he was also invited today.
Initially, Nangong Ze had plans to go with his grandfather, Eldest Uncle, and Eldest Brother, but when he heard that Elder Xu was going to introduce Nuannuan to everyone today, he realized that Nuannuan was going as well. Thus, the youngest brother of the Nangong family insisted on going with his younger sister.
The Xu residence was located in a single villa in the courtyard of the military base. Although the Xu family had a butler and guards, most of the people that Old Master Xu invited today were from the military base. Regardless of their identities, none of them had to act pretentious and so, everyone parked their own cars.
Since Elder Xu was treating, most of the guests arrived very early. They were thinking that if Elder Xu’s invited Elder Chi and Elder Chi arrived earlier, they would be able to pay their respects to Elder Chi.
Therefore, when Nangong Ze brought Nangong Nuannuan to the Xu residence, they noticed many cars parked outside.
“Nuannuan, why don’t you get off first? I might have to park the car at the quad.”
The villa area was already filled to the brim with parked cars. Nangong Ze could not possibly park his car in front of someone else’s house, so he could only park his car in the parking lot in the residential compound and walk for several minutes.
Nuannuan scanned the area. She did not want to walk either, so she nodded and got off.
“Then, come in as soon as you’re done. I’ll go look for Grandpa first.”
“Okay.”
Nuannuan got out of the car and walked in, but was stopped by the guard at the door.
“Do you have an invitation?”
Nuannuan paused.
An invitation? What the heck? Why did she not have one?
Just as Nangong Ze was about to drive off, he heard the guard’s words and immediately said, “Yes, we do.”
Then, he waved the invitation and said to the guard, “We came together.”
The guard immediately saluted Nangong Ze and Nangong Nuannuan before letting her in.
Previously, in Jiang District’s military base, Chi Yang lived in a two-bedroom house. Nuannuan never knew that it was possible to live in such a luxurious environment in the military base’s residential compound.
The Xu residence was a three-story villa. Large courtyards surrounded the house, and the perimeter of the villa was covered by trees. From here, it looked like there was only one family living here.
It was obvious that both Old Master Xu and Nuannuan’s grandfather liked stones.
The courtyard was filled with all kinds of stones. The flowers and plants were planted according to the designs created with the stones as the main, while each cluster of plants became decoration that complemented the stones.
Elder Xu held this banquet especially for Nuannuan. On account of this, Nuannuan decided to bring Elder Xu and her two grandfathers to the stone-gambling market for a battle someday. That would make the three elders happy.
As she still had to wait for Nangong Ze, Nuannuan did not zoom into the place to look for her two grandfathers.
