My Son-in-law Is A War God
Chapter 1329 - 1330: The Boast Has Been Exposed

Chapter 1329: Chapter 1330: The Boast Has Been Exposed

President Hai suddenly felt embarrassed.

He didn’t recognize that word at all.

"Oh my, Uncle Hai doesn’t recognize it? I thought Uncle Hai’s French level was really high."

Xiao Chen sighed and said, "I’m just starting to learn French, barely entry-level. I had thought about asking Uncle Hai for guidance, sigh."

"Foie gras! It means foie gras!"

While speaking, President Hai managed to pronounce the French for foie gras, not quite standard but at least he got it out.

It seems like a last-minute sharpening of skills.

"But Uncle Hai, I remember that word seems to mean ’menu’."

As he spoke, Xiao Chen read out the French for ’menu’.

In an instant, President Hai’s face turned red and his neck bulged; he realized that he had been played by Xiao Chen, who must understand French, hence the teasing. Damn it! The clever brat was too cunning.

"Xiao Chen, Uncle Hai already said he only knows a smattering; please don’t make it difficult for Uncle Hai!"

Shang Qingcheng said sternly.

But inside, she was very pleased.

Having such an outstanding son really brought honor to her.

"Mom, you can’t blame me. I thought Uncle Hai was just being modest; I had no idea he really didn’t understand French. Sorry, sorry.

Uncle Hai, I truly apologize.

I didn’t know you learned a few French words just to show off, so I’m really sorry! After all, the waitstaff at this restaurant all speak French, aiming to highlight the restaurant’s exclusivity. It’s really tough for those who don’t speak French to come here.

Of course, it’s fine to bring a translator with you."

Xiao Chen hastily said.

Damn it!

President Hai was furious, ready to explode.

This Xiao Chen, slyly making fun of him, and the worst part was he couldn’t even lash out.

"President Hai, don’t be angry. I don’t see anything wrong with that, doesn’t it just show your deep affection for Qingcheng?"

Shang Luoying was good with words.

That somewhat calmed President Hai down.

But even so, he still felt suffocated and wanted to vent his anger.

Just then, a waiter came over with cutlery.

Just as she was about to place it on the table, President Hai suddenly stretched out his leg.

The waiter lost control and sprawled out, cutlery flying everywhere.

She also crashed into Xiao Chen.

"I’m sorry, so sorry!"

The waiter was terrified.

The guests here were all extraordinary; offending any of them was not a light matter.

But she couldn’t speak Mandarin; she expressed her fear in French, afraid she couldn’t explain herself clearly, just continuously bowing.

"Beautiful miss, no need to panic, it’s just a little mishap, just be more careful next time!"

Xiao Chen spoke fluently in French, although the tone was somewhat strange, not what people usually hear on TV.

"You! You can actually speak my hometown language!"

The waiter was overjoyed.

Not only did Xiao Chen understand French, but he could also speak her local dialect.

It was like a person from Guangfu Prefecture hearing a foreigner speak their local lingo abroad.

You see, her hometown language was equivalent to a small county town language, much smaller in scope than Cantonese.

But Xiao Chen could speak it, and so fluently, which thrilled her tremendously.

"That’s normal, I’ve lived there for a while, it was a wonderful journey. The girls in your town are fantastic! And so hospitable!"

Xiao Chen continued, smiling.

"Wow, I know now, you are the man who bought our town’s treasure!"

The girl became even more excited.

She had heard about that man from the East who spent a fortune on a sculpture from their town.

That money also made their town much more affluent.

It was because she admired that man that she came to Dragon Country.

She never thought she’d get so lucky.

At this moment, Shang Qingguo, President Hai, Shang Luoying, and others all wore dumbfounded expressions.

What language is Xiao Chen speaking?

How is he chatting so happily with a Gaul waiter?

What are they talking about?

Even Shang Qingcheng was stunned.

She could speak French, true, but definitely not this dialect-like French.

So she could barely understand what Xiao Chen was saying.

Her own son was truly amazing.

It seems that she hardly knows enough about her son.

Xiao Chen is definitely not as simple as an entry-level son-in-law who has achieved nothing.

"Mr. Xiao, could you give me an autograph, please, in Dragon Country’s script, and sign it on my clothes?"

The waiter said excitedly.

"Of course!"

Xiao Chen took the marker pen and signed his name on the silk scarf the waiter brought out.

"Thank you so much, sir. I’ll go and hurry along your meal right now."

When the Gaul girl left, she even pressed a red seal on Xiao Chen’s face.

"It’s over, I’m going to get beaten by my wife when I go home!"

Xiao Chen didn’t expect the other person to be so enthusiastic.

"Xiao Chen, your French is so good, why don’t you make use of it and do something with the law?"

Shang Luoying asked.

"Indeed, loafing around all day, good for nothing, what’s the use of speaking French so well, hmph, you’re not nearly as capable as President Hai!"

Shang Qingguo was a woman who held grudges.

Because Xiao Chen had previously retorted her, she took every chance to critize him.

"Heh, Uncle Hai is indeed capable, so capable that he’s coming after another man’s wife."

Xiao Chen said with a cold laugh: "What do you think I am unaware of, Elder Madam Shang, Shang Qingguo? What are you really thinking?

My mother isn’t divorced yet, and you’re arranging for her to meet this sickly President Hai.

Are you trying to have people poke my mother’s spine?

Or do you want to be scolded and called shameless by everyone in Guangfu Prefecture?"

With things having come to this point, Xiao Chen didn’t bother to keep up the facade anymore.

He laid all his cards on the table.

"Since you’ve put it that way, I’ll be straightforward as well, I like Qingcheng, and I am pursuing her, Xiao Enze doesn’t deserve her!"

President Hai frankly spoke his truth as well.

"President Hai, please have some dignity! The reason I agreed to dine with you today was only to thank you for your help, but there is no personal affection involved."

Shang Qingcheng frowned and said.

She wouldn’t allow anyone to taint her feelings for Xiao Enze.

"If that’s the case, then how about you give up that contract?"

President Hai said with a sneer.

Shang Qingcheng was taken aback.

She then firmed up her resolve.

She would rather not return to the Shang Family than leave Xiao Enze, it was the Shang Family that was too much, not her being too heartless.

"Qingcheng, shut up!"

Shang Luoying panicked: "Do you know how hard it was to negotiate that business deal? You dare to give up; do you want to anger me to death?"

Shang Qingcheng was in agony.

How could any mother in the world push their daughter so hard?

"So, President Hai, may I ask how many contracts you’ve offered? What was the initial profit-sharing arrangement like?"

Xiao Chen asked with a smile beaming on his face.

Everyone found this question a bit strange.

President Hai would surely know this, after all, he’s the one who found Zhang Tianmao.

"Initially, it was only 30% of the profits; it was me who found Zhang Tianmao to change it to a 50% share. As for the contract, of course, there’s only one. What else did you think, that there would be a Yin Yang contract?"

President Hai said without even thinking.
