Chapter 860: A punch in the face comes too soon
Jingliu Yue and the others, turning a deaf ear to Farabee's words, instead quickened their pace and walked right up to Hector. "Brother Chen, it's been a long time!"
"I've been thinking about you a lot, so I finally got to meet you."
"Brother Chen!"
The three mouths shouted out to Brother Chen which stunned both of Farabee Devona's families.
Brother Chen, it's not Edgar who is shouting.
"Who is Brother Chen?"
"I don't know, let's see."
...
The crowd of guests murmured and became even more curious about the three gentry's mouthpiece, Brother Chen.
How honourable a person must be to be able to make this third male brother call him brother?
The problem was that they didn't even know this person was coming to the birthday party.
Farabee's brave question was ignored by all three.
With Yun Jingheng at the head, he was the first to walk up to Hector.
Ji Dongtang and Jing Liuyue also came walking briskly.
"Brother Chen, we heard from Rupert the other day that you were back, and we didn't believe it."
"I heard you were here tonight and came to check it out, but I didn't expect it to be true!"
The three men couldn't have been more excited, with happiness written all over their handsome faces.
Hector had some very friendly relations with all three of them when he was still managing the company in the country.
And the three treated Hector just like his brother, having had drinks and conversations together.
There is also a great deal of respect for Hector's abilities, and even more so for his ability.
Hector's attitude was much better at the sight of the three, and he nodded slightly, his face softening a little.
"It's been a long time indeed."
With a twinkle in her eye, Jingliu Yue glanced at Eloise in front of Hector, after another warm greeting with her.
He bent his elbow into Hector's arm and lowered his voice to ask, "Brother Chen, are you going back to UK this time, are you staying straight away or what?" "Settlement."
Hector answered truthfully.
Yun Jingheng and Ji Dongtang also smiled and shouted a hello to Eloise as a sister-in-law.
"Hello there."
Eloise smiled back and pulled the two little ones along to call out to each other as well before quietly leading them through their little pastries.
It was better for her to listen quietly as they caught up with each other as brothers.
"Brother Chen, you have such a cute little girl at home, didn't you even bring her to show us?"
Ji Dongtang's attention was drawn by Sweety's soft voice, and seeing how white and tender she was, he immediately fell in love with her. After saying that, he knelt down and came up to Sweety with a smile, "What's your name, Sweety? What a pretty name, come home with me?" Sweety blinked her big eyes and turned her head to hide directly behind Eloise.
Ji Dongtang looked at Sweety's move with some confusion.
"Sweety, what are you hiding for?"
"Daddy said not to talk to the weird uncle."
Sweety's big eyes darted around and she spoke in a brittle voice.
"Todo, you've been called a weird uncle."
The two of them laughed without hesitation at the sound of Jingliu Yue's voice.
When he was ridiculed by his best friend, Ji Dongtang smiled broadly and waved his hand unconcernedly.
"What do you know, little girl it's called, having a personality! That's the kind of little kid I like."
Yun Jingheng simply ignored him and went on to chat with Hector instead.
"Brother Chen, let's have a drink together when you're free for a few of us." Jing Liuyue took the opportunity to speak up.
Hector nodded in response, and then greeted all three of their fathers.
"Are they still well, Uncle?"
Jingliuyue said with a helpless face, spreading her hands.
"My old man is twice as healthy, he just talks about you a lot."
"So did my father."
"When I found out that you were back in UK, my father even asked me to come and ask you when you were going to come and sit at the house." The other two shook their heads and laughed in reply.
This familiarity and conversation between Hector and the others made both Farabee and Devona's families look frozen.
They didn't feel right either.
Wasn't that man here to fight over the Khan family's property?
How did those three gents... get to talk to him in the blink of an eye?
The other guests reacted by speculating about Hector's identity.
The Rogers family's domestic estate was being run by Rupert for several years, so no one recognised Hector when he arrived.
Arlice finally couldn't help himself and stepped forward to inquire curiously, "Young Yun, you know each other?"
Being interrupted by Arlice so much, or such a question, Yun Jingheng's trio was suddenly surprised.
"You don't know my brother?"
Jing Liuyue looked at Arlice in surprise and asked a question in return.
The atmosphere became a little subtle as the three froze and then looked at Hector with great understanding.
Like trying to get an answer.
My brother has come to the birthday banquet, does this person still not know my brother?
Edgar gave a cold laugh to break the delicate atmosphere.
With this smile, he gave Farabee Devona and the others a slight sense of foreboding.
"They know each other, how can they not?"
Edgar raised his eyebrows and stared straight at Arlice as he continued word for word, "Just now, he even said that his cousin's husband, coveted the Khan family's family fortune."
As his words fell, the guests, who were still whispering and discussing, all seemed to be affected by the atmosphere and quieted down.
When these words came out, Yun Jingheng's three expressions were like they had heard a big joke.
"Brother Chen, greedy for the Khan family fortune?"
Ji Dongtang couldn't hold back a snort of laughter and asked a question back.
It was the funniest joke they had heard in years.
Farabee immediately felt that the atmosphere was not right, and hurriedly came and dragged Arlice behind her, denying with a smile, "No, it's not true. It was just a joke, haha." At the end, he gave a couple of dry laughs.
Devona chimed in, "Yeah, just kidding."
The three Yun Jingheng clasped their arms and looked at Farabee Devona with a smirk.
It's like saying, "Please continue your show."
Farabee wiped a cold sweat that had broken out sharply on her forehead and turned her head to look at Hector.
This time he didn't dare to be sloppy, but carefully scrutinised Hector.
I hadn't looked at it properly before, but I can see the difference now.
It's just someone who does a little business, which would have that glare in their eyes.
"Minister ..."
Farabee hesitated for a moment and asked Hector cautiously, "I haven't had a chance to ask your name yet, what's your name?" Edgar was amused at the immoral look on Farabee's face, who had always been so unbearable.
What is this called?
It's a facepalm that can't come soon enough!
There was no way Hector and the three of them, Yun Jingheng, could have answered his question. So Edgar replied with particular kindness.
