Chapter 1122: Chapter 961: Trouble After Trouble

Now, when facing Wang Ye, his dad had completely stopped treating him as a "little child."

The first few times Wang Ye came back, although his dad knew that Wang Ye was doing quite well in business and had made a fair amount of money, he still spoke with an air of "having been there" and "having crossed more bridges than you have roads" or "having had more salt than you have had rice," offering Wang Ye some "guidance" on the "road of life!"

That’s something every parent does, isn’t it?

After all, in his parents’ eyes, Wang Ye was still just a college student, albeit one with a bit of luck and some money made.

Because of this, he needed even more guidance and reminders to prevent him from straying off the path...

But now, his dad didn’t think that way at all.

Because he had soberly realized that his own "pitiful" life experience was completely inapplicable to Wang Ye!

Even in blunt terms, aside from having lived a few more decades than Wang Ye, he was far inferior to him in every other respect...

Although it was a bit sad, he couldn’t help but admit it!

Let’s not even talk about educational achievement, he was a junior college student from the eighties, while Wang Ye was a modern-day student studying abroad, and a graduate of a renowned world university, so that’s a draw.

Both were now in business, and Dad’s factory was even bought with money from his son, although he managed it quite well.

But when compared to Wang Ye’s large conglomerates, Dad’s efforts were instantly blown to dust...

As for being in politics, that was even more of a joke; a whole lifetime had earned him just a deputy section-level position.

His son, however, had only been at it for a few years, and had already reached the substantial vice national level!

Though both had the prefix "deputy," the actual gap between them was as wide as from the Earth to the Sun...

So, after thinking it over for most of the night, as of today, his dad began treating Wang Ye with "equality" and even a bit of "respect."

There was no helping it, even though he was his own son, he simply couldn’t ignore his son’s dazzling brilliance.

He could only sigh and exclaim that his son had truly grown up and made something of himself!

......

Seeing that Wang Ye had no objections, his dad excitedly started calling relatives, inviting each one to come for a meal.

The relatives on Wang Ye’s mom’s side were mostly in the county town, mainly his uncles and aunties.

They weren’t his mother’s own brothers and sisters, but cousins of various degrees, and there were quite a few of them...

Some relationships were closer than others, the closest being the uncle who worked at a school and another auntie who was a teacher at the County Experimental Elementary School.

Others, with more common relationships, would just visit during New Year and gather occasionally.

But Dad had notified them all, inviting everyone to Dragon Lake Restaurant, the best restaurant in the county, to celebrate Wang Ye’s university graduation!

As for relatives from his dad’s hometown, they weren’t invited this time.

Because his dad had left home at a young age for school and work and only returned once a year during the holidays, and as for Wang Ye, he visited the hometown even less frequently and didn’t know many of the relatives there.

Plus, with his dad being an only child with no siblings, there weren’t many closely related relatives to speak of in the hometown...

......

"I’ve made all the calls, and I’ve set the time for today at noon.

Dragon Lake Restaurant is now the best hotel in the county, not far from our home. We can just drive over there at noon.

Your uncles and aunties will be there, and quite a few people are coming. It’s summer vacation now, so it happens that the kids from each family are all back home, it will be quite lively.

I’ve booked the largest private room at Dragon Lake Restaurant, the one with two big round tables that can seat more than thirty people, it’s plenty..."

After making the calls, Dad explained to Mom and Wang Ye with a smile.

Wang Ye knew Dragon Lake Restaurant; it was located on the busiest Dragon Lake Road in the county, with the vast Dragon Lake behind it, making for a nice environment.

As for the standard of the restaurant, it might be nothing special in a big city, but in a small county town, it stood out like a crane amongst chickens!

It had a considerable reputation!

For any slightly respectable family in the county with an event to hold, this was the go-to place.

"Order more dishes, it’s not easy for everyone to get together, we should let everyone eat and drink well," Mom quickly said.

That was needless for her to remind, Dad knew it too.

Given the family’s current situation, especially considering Wang Ye’s status, frankly, inviting everyone to Dragon Lake Restaurant to eat was somewhat "modest," but there was no helping it, as there weren’t better restaurants in the county!

......

The streets in July were already quite hot.

Around eleven, Wang Ye drove his parents to Dragon Lake Restaurant.

He was driving his dad’s Audi A6, not the Mercedes, because he wanted to keep it low-key.

Dad’s car was already quite eye-catching in the county, and taking out the Mercedes would truly draw a crowd, no exaggeration.

Through the rearview mirror, Wang Ye saw Liu’s inconspicuous Jetta Car following not far behind him, keeping a careful distance.

It seemed Liu had learned his lesson and no longer dared to be too far from Wang Ye.

If something were to happen to Wang Ye again, they’d probably face unpleasant consequences upon returning...

Upon arriving at the restaurant, Wang Ye asked his parents to go ahead and confirm the menu, while he stood leisurely under a big tree at the restaurant entrance, lit a cigarette, and started smoking, enjoying the beautiful lake view.
