Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen)
Chapter 39

However, Mindy did not speak. Howard did not dare to get up so he could only keep bowing.

Mindy did not look at Howard at all. Mindy held Fish in her arms and walked to Fade. Mindy bowed slightly and apologized, "Mr. Chen, I'm sorry that my daughter has caused you some trouble. Please forgive us."

Fade had just learned about Mindy's identity from Quin. Fade was a little confused and did not expect Mindy to do such a thing. Fade paused for a moment and replied with a smile, "Miss Wu, you're too polite. The fish was very cute. There is absolutely no trouble." The little girl, Fish also applauded pleasingly at this moment, "Mom, Superman just got me steak to eat!"

Fade glanced at Fish's hand and clothes that were covered with grease, her forehead was full of dirt too. Fade was discreetly worried that Mindy would blame him for being a bad influence on her daughter.

Fortunately, Mindy did not mind at all. Mindy glanced at Howard who was still bowing and said to Fade, "Mr. Chen, if you are satisfied with his apology, let him get up. If you are not satisfied, then Mr. Zhang should continue to apologize until you are satisfied."

Upon hearing this, many guests were stunned and puzzled.

They never expected that such a thing could happen. This woman forced Howard to bow and apologize to a man coming from a small village and even let him decide if he should forgive Howard or not. "How did this kid get to know Miss Wu?" Someone whispered.

"Who is he? Is he really Quin's husband?" The crowds were filled with suspense.

"Even if he is Quin's husband, it's impossible to receive such treatment from Miss Wu." Everyone was full of questions about Fade.

For a while, all kinds of guesses were exchanged. Even Quin herself looked at Fade with a puzzled look. Quin didn't know how her poor husband knew such a respected figure. Fade was a little confused. He patted his head and thought for a while, but he still didn't remember how he knew this young woman.

"Mr. Chen, I'm going to change my daughter's clothes. I'll leave first." Mindy held the little girl in her arms, bowed slightly to Fade, and then went back.

Fade was still in a daze, but Quin nudged him and pointed at Howard.

Fade walked up to Howard and said unsympathetically, "Raise your head!"

Howard's was slightly relieved. After bowing for so long, Howard's waist felt almost broken so he rapidly stood up.

However, just as Howard stood up and was about to see what's in front of him, he heard a whirring wind before he was slapped heavily on his mouth.

"This is a punishment to you for not thinking before you say anything!" Fade said.

Howard's mouth was swollen. Howard was furious and wanted to hit Fade. Howard said, "Fade, you..."

But then, Fade's cold voice sounded, "This is a lesson for you. Are you sure you want to fight with me?"

Howard's face was stiff, and his fist stopped mid-air. Howard squeezed out an ugly smile and forced a few words out of his mouth, "Thank you for your lesson!"

"If you like it, I will let you continue bowing!" Fade ordered Howard. Then Fade reached out to hold Quin's slender waist and said intimately, "Dear, the fruit over there is very delicious. Let's go over there." Behind Fade, Howard stood there and looked at Fade's back, and the anger in his eyes was overflowing profusely.

Half an hour later, there was a burst of music in the banquet and the lights went dark.

Knowing that the most important part of the night was about to begin, everyone stopped talking and looked at a stage in the middle of the hall.

Then, a spotlight lit up and hit the center of the stage. An old man in his sixties appeared under the spotlight. His hair was grey but his face was still youthful. There was a kind of uniqueness in his eyes. He was undoubtfully the protagonist of this banquet, the retired mayor John Wu, commonly known as Mr. Wu.

On the stage, Mr. Wu simply said a few words to thank everyone for holding this banquet for him, hoping that they could all have fun.

After speaking, it was time to celebrate Mr. Wu's birthday. Mindy took her daughter, Fish together and pushed out a huge cake with a smile. Mindy lit the candles, let Mr. Wu made a wish and blew out the candles, and then shared the cake out.

Next, Mindy and Fish gave Mr. Wu birthday presents they had prepared. These were not expensive items but were gifts they had personally made. When Mr. Wu saw his granddaughter had made a drawing or her own and gave it to him as a gift, Mr. Wu laughed delightedly.

After the family members passed him their birthday gifts, the guests start to give their presents to Mr. Wu one after another.

Of course, everyone knew Mr. Wu's personality and hence would not give expensive gifts. Therefore, they appealed to Mr. Wu's favorite... Wine, and sent a lot of wine in different ways. These wines were not expensive so Mr. Wu did not refuse and all of them were accepted. Mr. Wu even tasted some of it on the spot, causing a burst of cheers and the atmosphere became more lively.

Quin also prepared a bottle of wine as a gift to Mr. Wu. It was not expensive, but it took her a lot of effort to replace it. She specially sent people to get this original rice wine from an old wine shop in the countryside.

Mr. Wu liked it very much. After drinking a glass of wine on the spot, he patted his legs and said "Amazing!", which made many entrepreneurs envious. Howard is up next. He had changed his clothes and tidied up his hair. Although his face was still red and swollen, his dressing made him look neat. However, Howard had obviously been bending down for a long time, so he could not walk fast, he needed Jeremy Lin to hold and help him out.

Finally, he came to Mr. Wu. Howard took out a small bottle of red wine and introduced it with a smile, "Mr. Wu, this bottle of red wine is from Bordeaux, France. It shares the same cellar as the famous 1982 Lafite. However, due to its low production volume, it's only enough to provide for the French royal family, so it's not very popular."

"When I went to Europe for a business trip a few months ago, I happened to learn about the existence of such a great wine. I thought of your birthday which was coming soon, so I asked someone to buy it for you. Tonight, I will give it to you. I wish you long and prosperous life and may you taste all the great wines in this world."

"You are thoughtful." Mr. Wu nodded, and his attitude was not very enthusiastic. Obviously, Mr. Wu had already known the incident that had happened to his granddaughter, Fish. Sensing this, Howard's heart skipped a beat. He gently gritted his teeth and said, "Mr. Wu, today is the perfect day. With such good wine, I would like to propose a toast to you." With this, Howard opened the bottle, took two goblets and poured wine into both of them, and handed one to Mr. Wu.

Mr. Wu was not in the mood at first, but when the scarlet-red wine was sent to him, his eyes suddenly lit up. He could not help but gently sniff and began to smell the wine. Seeing this, Howard was delighted and knew that it was a good sign that Mr. Wu liked it. He raised his glass and said, "Cheers to you, Mr. Wu." Then Howard drank it up. Mr. Wu was really attracted by the unique aroma of this wine. He gently raised his glass and was ready to taste it.

But at this moment, a loud voice came from the side, "Mr. Wu, you can't drink this wine!"
