Chapter 1003: The 80th Birthday Banquet (Part 24)
"Bai Chenyao’s marriage was decided by himself over twenty years ago!"
Everyone: "..."
What the heck does this mean?
Over twenty years ago?
If they remembered correctly, Bai Chenyao was Bai Xijing’s late-born child, and judging by age alone, Bai Xijing seemed more like a grandparent than a father.
Bai Chenyao is only twenty-eight this year, and over twenty years ago, even twenty years ago, Bai Chenyao was only eight. Can an eight-year-old decide on marriage?
No one pulls wool over people’s eyes like this!
But seeing Old Sir Bai clearly not wanting to say another word, no one wanted to make things difficult for themselves, so the matter was dropped.
Even if they wanted to ask and find out the truth, it seems they could only get the real answer from Bai Chenyao himself.
But asking Bai Chenyao?
Ha, they’d rather probe Old Sir Bai in all sorts of indirect ways.
It’s known that over ten years ago, when Bai Chenyao was just seventeen, after returning from abroad, he took over Bai Group, which was originally in the hands of Old Sir Bai and his three brothers, and began a massive shake-up, clearing out all those loyal to Old Sir Bai and his brothers from the Bai Group. Due to this shake-up, Bai Group was once teetering on the brink, even more alarming than Mu Family’s decline back then.
But surprisingly, in less than half a year, Bai Group not only didn’t disappear from Shengjing, it advanced impressively in various industries, bewildering those who’d initially come to watch the drama.
Bai Group’s domains were extensive, with real estate and film taking the lead, yet other industries were not to be underestimated. It seemed that in any product industry, with determination, one could see the Bai Group’s trace.
Moreover, it ventured into military supplies that others dared not touch.
Of course, its involvement in military supplies was entirely under Bai Chenyao’s personal name, with no connection to Bai Group.
This made everyone more amazed when they looked at Bai Chenyao.
Just how strong, extraordinary, and valued must a person be to personally handle the import and export of military supplies?
And this became even clearer; Bai Chenyao was wholly prepared, even if issues arose in military supplies, it would have no relation to Bai Group.
Even though clearly the same person owned them, yet they were two independent entities.
Many people attended Mr. Mu’s 80th birthday celebration not just for him but also for Bai Chenyao.
Or perhaps it was because they knew Bai Chenyao’s relationship with Mu Family’s Second Miss was quite special, so they were willing to come and show face for Bai Chenyao.
Whether Bai Chenyao remembers them or cares, it doesn’t matter.
Showing up is still better than not showing up, what if by luck they’re remembered?
Mu Tiantian didn’t think much about it, yet noticed the incredible disbelief and varied envy, jealousy, and resentment in the eyes of the female guests looking at her. Still, she maintained her sweet and charming smile, following Old Madam Mu, Shen Xin, and Mu Haiyun as she greeted everyone with a nod and smile.
After doing a round, Mu Tiantian found her cheek muscles almost stiff from smiling, but evidently, it wasn’t over.
Just after taking a breath, Mu Tiantian saw Mu Haiyun smiling at everyone but speaking to her.
"Dinner parties and receptions are like this, Tian Tian just hang in there, you’ll get used to it!"
