Chapter 783: Only he dares to say this Part Two (1/2)
“What do you mean by drinking and playing too much.” Old Master Ye glared at him.
Xu Cheng looked at him and said in a serious manner, “Especially you, Grandpa Ye, you have the biggest temper and are a bad drinker. You should restrain yourself a bit, I’m still waiting for you to live a long life again and continue to protect me.”
Old Master Ye felt speechless.
Old Master Zhou laughed loudly. “Brother Ye, only this kid dares to speak the truth. With your temper and strength, if we weren’t present, then nobody could hold you down after you drink. So you really do have to pay attention in the future to not affect the reputation you’ve built over a lifetime.”
He hadn’t finished laughing when Xu Cheng walked over and said, “Grandpa Zhou, don’t laugh at a hundred steps when you’re fifty steps away. Less tricks and more sincerity goes a long way. Look at your hair, you’re balding from all these tricks. No matter how good the medicine is, it won’t cure baldness. You’re all at an old age, and I know what you’re worried about. But please have faith in this generation, I believe that the other uncles can take care of the country.”
Old Master Zhou almost bit on his tongue.
The five Old Masters all fell silent after listening to Xu Cheng’s words.
The secretary who was responsible for pouring tea had cold sweat running down his back listening to what Xu Cheng had said.
Old Master Ye glared at Xu Cheng. “How dare you say such things?”
“Since you guys brought me in here, and also said that no more than ten people are qualified to enter, me being the tenth one. The other four must be the uncles then, right? They are your descendants so they dare not say this, and they wouldn’t dare to talk back under your authoritative position either. If I don’t say it, then who else dares to say it? If you really can’t take it in, then treat it as me talking nonsense after drinking this much tea. I’m not speaking for any of the uncles, but I just sincerely hope that you don’t have to work so hard at such an age and enjoy what you’ve brought to this era.”
After saying that, Xu Cheng stood up and got ready to leave.
The five Old Masters fell into silence.
After Xu Cheng walked out of the pavilion, Old Master Ye couldn’t help but ask, “Kid, I’ve always wanted to ask you a question. If one day, when you stand against the country, would you have confidence to make your way in here?”
Xu Cheng turned his head to look at the five Old Masters and grinned. “Yes! But there will never be a day like that because I treat the five of you as family. What I said just now was from a younger generation point of view, something from the bottom of my heart to the elderly who have worked all their lives.”
After saying that, he walked away.
