Before FirstUncle could speak, the middle-aged man leading the group spoke up, “Excuse me, is this the venue for Old Mr. Zhou’s 80th birthday banquet?”

Zhou Naifu, Zhou Chao’s uncle, was momentarily taken aback, then quickly replied, “Yes, that’s correct. May I ask who you are?”

Zhou Hao, standing nearby, hurriedly added, “Dad, this is Manager Chen, the general manager of our Yida Modu Headquarters!”

Upon hearing this, Manager Chen looked at Zhou Hao with some surprise and smiled, “I didn’t expect you to be from our Yida. Which branch arc you currently working at?”

“Manager Chen, I’m Zhou Hao from the HR Department at Modu Headquarters!” Zhou Hao stood up a little straighter as he spoke, feeling a touch of nervousness in his tone. After all, Manager Chen was his boss’s boss’s boss.

Manager Chen smiled and patted Zhou Hao on the shoulder, “You’re a good lad. After the National Day holiday, you’ll have more responsibilities on your shoulders!”

Hearing this, Zhou Hao realized what was happening. They were promoting him! He quickly expressed his gratitude, “Thank you, Manager Chen, thank you. I’ll work even harder!”

At this moment, Zhou Naifu’s face was filled with excitement as he hurriedly ushered Manager Chen inside. Hearing the flattering words from the crowd nearby, Zhou Naifu felt a surge of pride.

Understanding the situation, Zhou Hao sighed as he watched his father’s proud demeanor. He couldn’t help but pat his own head in resignation, “I just hope it won’t be too embarrassing when we find out the truth later.”

Led by Zhou Naifu, Manager Chen, Manager Yang, and the executives of Yida walked through the crowd and approached the host sitting on the stage, as well as Zhou Chao standing not far away.

When Manager Chen saw Zhou Chao’s face clearly, he couldn’t help but feel a jolt in his heart. As an executive of Yida, he had seen photos of Zhou Chao before and knew what this young man represented. Just as he was about to greet him, he saw Zhou Chao shaking his head slightly, so he quickly stopped in his tracks.

“What’s wrong, Manager Chen?” Seeing Manager Chen stop, Zhou Naifu quickly asked. ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com

“It’s nothing, I just forgot that the congratulatory gift for Old Mr. Zhou’s birthday is still in the car. Mr. Yang, please arrange for someone to bring it over.”

“Understood, Manager Chen.” Despite his doubts, Manager Yang still arranged for someone to bring the gift over.

Manager Chen also walked up to the stage and stood beside Old Man Zhou, saying respectfully, “Old Mr. Zhou, on behalf of Yida, I’ve come to extend my best wishes to you on your birthday. May you be blessed with good health and prosperity.”

Old Man Zhou could tell that Manager Chen and his companions were not ordinary, so he quickly stood up, surprising Manager Chen enough to almost make his legs go weak.

“Old Mr. Zhou, please sit, please sit. You’re the birthday star; you should be seated.” Old Man Zhou said with a slight glance towards Zhou Chao.

Old Man Zhou was about to persuade him further, but seeing Manager Chen’s resolute attitude, he didn’t insist any further.

At that moment, the people arranged by Manager Yang came over with the gift. Dozens of bodyguards were carrying or holding various items, with one of them conspicuously holding a stack of cash, estimated to be dozens of stacks at least.

“Wow!” The scene erupted into a buzz of amazement, everyone stunned by such a grand gesture.

“Old Mr. Zhou, this is just a token of appreciation from our Yida Group. We hope you won’t mind!”

“Is… Is this too extravagant?” Old Man Zhou glanced around, his face equally shocked. Apart from the stacks of cash, there were also many pieces of gold jewelry.

“It’s only appropriate. Please accept it with peace of mind!”

Old Man Zhou nodded somewhat dazedly, still not fully recovered from the shock. freёweɓnovel.com

At this moment, the emcee on the side saw that the timing was right and quickly stepped forward to continue the unfinished proceedings.

As Old Man Zhou blew out the candles on the cake, the birthday banquet ceremony officially came to an end..
