Old Master Zhuang came out of the lounge and looked at Zhuang Che coldly. He was still doubting whether the rumors were true, but as soon as he stepped out of the lounge, he heard Zhuang Che talking to someone about changing the head of the family. Zhuang Che could not hide his smile, as if the position of the head of the family had already fallen to him.

Old Master Zhuang was disgusted that someone had made a decision for him. He had decided to let Zhuang Che be the head of the family. Besides, he knew better than anyone else about the character and ability of Zhuang Che and his son. Once the Zhuang family was handed over to them, it would be destroyed sooner or later.

“Grandpa, you’re here!” Zhuang Che was overjoyed. “Look, there are so many people here today. They’re all here to celebrate your birthday.”

“Humph. Are these people here to celebrate my Both birthday? Aren’t they here to build a good relationship with you, the future head of the Zhuang family?” Old Master Zhuang sneered. “Do you want me to abdicate to you now?”

Although Zhuang Che was stupid, he could not understand what he was saying. When he heard Old Master Zhuang say this, he was the only one who had been played.

“Grandpa, I never thought of it that way.” Zhuang Che tried to salvage the situation. “1 didn’t spread these rumors. If Grandpa wants to know, I’ll arrange for someone to investigate it now.”

Grandpa Tao was still very angry. “Why should we be investigating this now? Instead of finding out who said it, why don’t you check if there’s enough wine today?”

“Dad, what’s wrong?” Shen Jing came in with her bag. “It’s such a good day today. How are you in such a bad mood?”

“Ask him yourself what he was talking about!” Old Master Zhuang said angrily.

Shen Jing walked over and asked gently, “Xiaoche, what did you say just now? Why did you make Grandpa angry?”

Zhuang Che was very frustrated. He did not want to talk to Shen Jing. Shen Jing was not that important to him. He only talked to people who could bring him benefits.

Seeing that Zhuang Che was ignoring her, Shen Jing did not continue to look for trouble. She took her bag and went to chat with the other noble ladies.

“Why isn’t Xiao Liu here yet?” After calming down, Old Master Zhuang asked Shen Jing.

Shen Jing replied, “Xiao Liu went to prepare a gift for you. He’ll be back in a while.”

“I don’t need him to give me a gift. As long as he can come over, I’m very happy.” Old Master Zhuang said with a straight face.

“Dad, you’ll definitely like this gift from Xiao Liu.” Shen Jing maintained her mysteriousness. “I’ll call him immediately and tell him to come over quickly.”

Zhuang Che heard that Zhuang Liu was going to give him a gift. He was worried that his gift would lose its advantage, so he immediately brought out the gift he had prepared for the old man.

It was a jade screen that was two meters tall and three and a half meters wide. There were carvings of mountains, rivers, cranes, houses, and some pictures related to birthday celebrations on it.

“Grandpa, this is the gift I prepared for you. Do you like it?” Zhuang Che asked carefully.

Old Master Zhuang naturally liked this gift very much, but his expression was very calm. “Little Che, you’re so thoughtful. 1 like this gift very much. Please have them place it in a good place.” Then, he ordered people to carry the screen down.

Zhuang Che heaved a sigh of relief. As long as the old man liked it, it was fine. He had not spent fifty million on this screen in vain. In his opinion, this screen was not worth that much money at all, but in order to make the old man happy, he had to spend this much money.

After Zhuang Che, the number of people who gave gifts increased. The gifts that each of them took out were very precious. They could not bring out anything worth hundreds of thousands of yuan at all.

Old Master Zhuang did not care about their gifts at all. If someone gave him a gift that he liked, he would take a few more glances. If it did not match his feelings, he would ask the butler to put it away.

Zhuang Liu still did not show up even though he had given almost all the gifts. Third Uncle Zhuang could not sit still anymore. He asked Shen Jing, “Sister-in-law, why isn’t Xiao Liu here yet? Could it be that he didn’t prepare anything nice and don’t have the courage to join us today?”

“How could Xiao Liu not come to the old master’s birthday banquet?” Shen Jing smiled slightly. “He was just preparing a gift for the old man. When the gift was ready, he came over.”

“Xiao Liu’s legs are inconvenient, so it’s normal for him to come late.” Old Master Zhuang looked at Third Brother Zhuang unhappily. “I’ve told you many times that a gift doesn’t have to be something expensive. As long as the person who gave the gift is sincere, even if it’s just a pot of flowers, I’ll be happy to accept it..”
