Not Going

But it's not completely absolute. There are also a few people who have a good relationship with Chen Mo, such as the little girl Chen Ke'er.

Chen Mo walked over with a calm expression, knelt beside Chen Jingye, and kowtowed to his grandfather Chen Guoliang: "Chen Mo, kowtow to grandpa!"

Chen Guoliang was greatly relieved and laughed heartily: "Okay, okay, I haven't seen you in a few years, and Xiao Mo has grown so tall!"

"Everyone get up!"

"Sufang, come and sit too. We are all part of the same family, so don't be polite!"

Li Sufang bowed and saluted: "Thank you very much, father!"

Chen Jingye asked Chen Mo to salute Chen Guozhong and Chen Guodong again. Although Chen Mo was reluctant, he still did so.

Chen Guozhong is a little better, but Chen Guodong's attitude towards Chen Mo is obviously a bit cold. If it weren't for Chen Guoliang's face, he would not bother to talk to Chen Mo.

After everyone exchanged pleasantries, Chen Donghua, who belongs to Chen Guodong's lineage, smiled and asked: "Brother Jingye, you have been working hard outside alone and haven't been home for several years. Have you forgotten your roots because you have risen to great heights?"

"I wonder what position brother Jingye is now? Have you entered the city?" Chen Donghua seems to be unintentional, but in fact he is intentional. With the ability of the Chen family, it is impossible not to know what position Chen Jingye is now.

The originally lively hall suddenly fell silent. Everyone looked at Chen Jingye with a hint of ridicule in their eyes.

Chen Mo glanced at Chen Donghua, who was smiling, with a cold look in his eyes. Chen Ke'er, who was standing behind Chen Donghua anxiously, kept winking at Chen Mo, as if begging Chen Mo for forgiveness.

Chen Jingye looked a little embarrassed. He also knew that Chen Donghua most likely did it on purpose, but this kind of question was normal and he couldn't say anything.

If he didn't answer, he would look a little guilty.

Fortunately, Chen Guoliang spoke up in time: "Okay, we won't talk about business today. If Donghua is curious, I can ask Jingye to go to your place tonight and have a good chat with you."

Seeing Chen Guoliang personally standing up to speak for Chen Jingye, Chen Donghua was a little jealous, but he didn't dare to have any dissatisfaction: "I just asked casually, and the head of the family was joking."

Seeing that the head of the family was so protective of Chen Jingye, no one dared to suppress Chen Jingye anymore. However, the atmosphere in the hall became a little strange. When everyone was chatting, they seemed to actively avoid Chen Mo's family and pretended that they did not exist.

Fortunately, Chen Jingye had already gotten used to it, and Li Sufang had experienced it several times. Although she was angry, there was nothing she could do about it.

As for Chen Mo, he has been cultivating immortality for six hundred years and has already established his Taoist heart. As long as his parents don't care, he naturally doesn't care.

From time to time, Chen Guoliang would chat with Chen Jingye's family of three to ease Chen Jingye's embarrassment, which can be said to be a well-intentioned move.

After dinner, Chen Jingye and his family were accommodated.

As soon as they settled in, little girl Chen Ker ran to find Chen Mo.

Seeing Chen Ke'er, Chen Jingye frowned slightly. He didn't know much about Chen Ke'er, but he knew that Chen Ke'er was Chen Donghua's daughter.

"Uncle Chen, I apologize to you for my father's rashness. Please forgive me!" Chen Ke'er was very polite.

Chen Jingye was a little confused. He thought that Chen Ke'er came to find Chen Mo because Chen Donghua had some other crooked ideas. He never expected that Chen Ke'er would take the initiative to apologize to him!

Involuntarily, Chen Jingye looked at Chen Mo next to him, with an inquiring look in his eyes.

Chen Mo smiled and said: "Don't worry, Ke'er is a good boy and not so mean-spirited!"

"Okay then, just go out for a walk with Ke'er." Chen Jingye said.

Chen Keer suddenly said happily: "Thank you, Uncle Chen!"

"Brother Chen Mo, let's go!" Chen Ke'er looked at Chen Mo and smiled happily.

"Yes." Chen Mo nodded and followed Chen Ke'er out. He probably knew what Chen Ke'er wanted to do with him.

The Chen Family Manor is very large and was passed down from ancestors. Most of the architectural styles still continue the charm of the Qing Dynasty. It was later rebuilt and many modern buildings were added.

Chen Ke'er took Chen Mo to the garden in the backyard. The little girl was young after all and couldn't hide anything on her mind. When she saw no one around, she opened her mouth and asked: "Brother Chen Mo, you are Mr. Chen, right?"

Chen Mo pretended not to understand: "What Mr. Chen? What are you talking about, Ke'er?"

Chen Keer's small nose twitched slightly and hummed: "Stop pretending to be confused here. Who else will celebrate my birthday besides you?"

Chen Mo joked and said, "Perhaps some big shot sees our little sister Ke'er as cute and well-behaved, so he wants to please you, Ke'er?"

"Brother Chen Mo, just admit it! Except for you, I have never told anyone about my birthday!" Chen Kerr rolled her eyes and said.

Chen Mo couldn't defend himself, but he didn't take the initiative to admit it either: "Since you said yes, then so be it!"

"That's pretty much it." Although Chen Mo admitted with some reluctance, little girl Chen Ker was easily satisfied.

"By the way, brother Chen Mo, our younger generation of the Chen family will hold a small party at the Jinge Hotel tomorrow. Do you want to join us? I heard that Chen Tong will also go!" Chen Kerr looked at Chen Mo with a pair of crystal eyes.

With eyes full of expectation, Chen Tong has the highest prestige among the younger generation of the Chen family and is a role model for the younger generation of the Chen family.

"Sorry, I'm not interested." Chen Mo refused simply.

In fact, Chen Mo knew very well what was going on about tomorrow's party. Among the younger generation of the Chen family, it was called a small annual party.

To put it bluntly, it is the annual meeting of the younger generation of the Chen family. After all, in the real annual meeting, no matter how outstanding these juniors are, they can only play supporting roles.

Therefore, these young people who were unwilling to be lonely organized a small party just before the real Chen family annual meeting, and let themselves be the protagonists.

In his previous life, Chen Mo rushed to such occasions, but in this life, Chen Mo really had no interest.

Chen Keer, who was waiting happily to attend the annual party with Chen Mo, was stunned for a moment when she heard that Chen Mo refused.

"Why? Brother Chen Mo, they all misunderstood you and said that you... said some ugly words. You can tell everyone at the small annual party tomorrow that you are the mysterious Mr. Chen. Let's see who else dares to say something about you in the future.

"Chen Ke'er said anxiously.

Chen Mo looked indifferent: "Is this necessary? What others think of me is their business. I am who I am. I don't have to prove anything because of other people's opinions!"

"But..." Chen Ke'er still wanted to persuade, but was interrupted by Chen Mo: "Okay Ke'er, you don't have to persuade me, I won't go."

Chen Ke'er was helpless and nodded with a disappointed look on her face: "Okay then."

"We were still counting on letting Brother Chen Mo scare those bad guys at this small annual meeting? Since Brother Chen Mo doesn't want to go, then forget it."

"Yes." Chen Mo nodded.

Chen Ke'er was poured cold water on her head by Chen Mo, and she was not in the mood to continue wandering around. She said, "Then I'll go back first. I won't bother Brother Chen Mo anymore. You can rest early!"

"Okay, you should go to bed early!" Chen Mo said.

There was nothing to say all night. Early the next morning, everyone in the Chen family went to the hall to pay their respects to Chen Guoliang, Chen Guozhong and Chen Guodong.

Chen Mo is no exception.

After everything was done, Mr. Chen Guoliang looked at all the younger members of the Chen family and suddenly said with a smile: "Okay, you brats don't have to stand here with a sullen face. Just go and do whatever you need to do!"

"You guys are here, your hearts have already flown to the annual meeting!" Chen Guoliang scolded with a smile.
