87 Chapter 85: Generous Gift

The banquet had begun, and Shen Chengguang wished to join the table at which Lai Zhewei sat. However, that table was already occupied by nine people: Doctor Luo, Manager Yao, Manager Tong, Manager Chen, Uncle Fu, the village chief, Shen Zixuan, Ming Zhijie, and Lai Zhewei. The remaining seat was evidently reserved for the host, Shen Chengyao.

Shen Chengguang wasn't oblivious to this protocol, but he yearned to build a rapport with Lai Zhewei. Considering that Lai Zhewei's grandfather was the Minister of Works, having a relationship with Lai Zhewei, and even better if Bao'er could be married into the Lai family, would not be bad for Wen'er's potential promotion in the future. This was a significant matter for their family's prosperity, which was always prioritized by everyone in the family. With this thought, Shen Chengguang decided to seat himself anyway.
