Chapter 916: Extra Story 361-6: Not an Ordinary Person, Boss Mao, Mao Xiaoqi_3 Chapter 916: Extra Story 361-6: Not an Ordinary Person, Boss Mao, Mao Xiaoqi_3 The focus of the Ji Family and the Weaving Factory had already shifted towards Ji’s third grandfather.

Even Ji Lang had been scolded mercilessly by him.

“Grandfather,” Ji Lang pursed his lips, waiting for his grandfather’s rage to subside before he spoke, “Tonight, the Xicheng Chamber of Commerce is hosting a dinner for the people from the Xuankang Chamber of Commerce headquarters. Will you be attending?”

The Xicheng Chamber of Commerce used to be led by the Weaving Factory.

Now, the president had changed to the wealthiest man in Xicheng.

Upon hearing this, Ji’s third grandfather slightly subdued his anger and had Ji Lang prepare to accompany him in the evening.

The evening banquet of the Xicheng Chamber of Commerce was held in the grand auditorium, with many celebrities gathered and several municipal leaders also present.

The banquet started at seven, but Ji’s third grandfather arrived early, not even six o’clock yet.

He networked with various significant business owners at the venue, exchanging business cards.

Ji Lang and his fiancee both followed behind Ji’s third grandfather.

As it neared seven o’clock, a stir went through the main entrance, marking the president of the Xicheng Chamber of Commerce’s arrival.

The crowd surged towards the entrance.

Ji’s third grandfather and Ji Lang exchanged glances, picking up their wine glasses and following the crowd toward the entrance.

The two finally squeezed in and saw the Chamber’s president, who was accompanied by a young man in a suit. Judging by his somewhat tender face, he seemed to be no older than twenty.

“President.” Ji’s third grandfather finally found an opportunity and, holding up his wine glass, toasted the president and the young man, “I am from the Weaving Factory, and this is my grandson Ji Lang.”

The president of the Xicheng Chamber of Commerce nodded; he seemed to have met Ji Lang before, “Young Ji is promising. And this is Director Mao from the Xuankang Headquarters, managing director, just like Young Ji, both with great prospects.”

Ji’s third grandfather had been waiting for just that moment and hurriedly raised his wine glass, “Director Mao, hello.”

Mao Xiaoqi held his wine glass and slightly raised it toward Ji’s third grandfather.

Ji’s third grandfather only managed to exchange a few words with Mao Xiaoqi and didn’t even have the chance to introduce himself before being pushed aside by other corporate bosses.

The Ji Family honestly didn’t count for much in this circle.

But fortunately, Ji’s third grandfather managed to get Director Mao’s business card.

Standing in a corner, he spoke to Ji Lang nearby, “Once the crowd thins, go and introduce yourselves,” then he asked, “Did my second brother not come?”

“Second Grandfather is at the Weaving Factory, he’s coming late,” Ji Lang replied.

Ji’s third grandfather nodded and said no more, instead introducing Ji Lang to other people at the Chamber again.

Second Grandfather of Ji arrived hurriedly at half past seven.

Ji’s third grandfather spotted him from afar but did not greet him.

Nearby, Ji Lang’s fiancee recognized Ji’s third grandfather and asked in a low voice, “Shall we invite them over?”

Second Grandfather Ji had always been immersed in studying embroidery techniques and knew few people. His presence today was due to his rising position in the Weaving Factory, which brought him along.

Not as well-connected as Ji’s third grandfather.

With a champagne glass in hand, Ji’s third grandfather remained silent, but upon seeing the president and Director Mao, he quickly approached with a smile, “I’ve long heard of the great reputation of Xuankang. Meeting Director Mao today, truly, a hero is younger than he seems.”

He raised his glass, exchanging pleasantries with the president and Director Mao.

Mao Xiaoqi politely smiled, having heard too many similar remarks tonight.

He politely raised his glass to Ji’s third grandfather, then looking up, his eyes met with those of Second Grandfather Ji.

Second Grandfather Ji, along with the director of the Weaving Factory, was discussing matters about the Xuankang Headquarters and was caught off-guard by Mao Xiaoqi’s gaze. He then approached with his wine glass.

Somewhat puzzled, “Mao Xiaoqi?”

Everyone at the venue who had received Mao Xiaoqi’s business card knew his name, Mao Xiaoqi.

Hearing Second Grandfather Ji directly call Director Mao by his name, Ji’s third grandfather’s expression subtly changed, thinking it bold to address Director Mao by his name, considering his societal status was higher than that of the Ji Family despite his younger age.

When Second Grandfather Ji approached, Ji’s third grandfather pulled him by the sleeve and quietly warned, “That’s Director Mao…”

As he spoke, he looked up and, with a smile, explained to Mao Xiaoqi and the president, “Director Mao, my second brother was calling for my grandson Xiaoming, who is conveniently the seventh in our family…”

Yet, just as he finished speaking, Mao Xiaoqi looked at Second Grandfather Ji and politely called out, “Second Grandfather.”
