“……” Faced with the wine presented by Degleil, Cheng Xiaofan was truly speechless.
If Meilena knew about this, how could he face her?
He immediately refused, saying, "Degleil, I don't like this kind of thing. Take back the wine you're holding!"
Yami Di immediately chimed in, "Mr. Degleil, since my master has said so, you should listen to him!"
Master?
Degleil's eyes widened again!
Was Yami Di merely a female slave to Cheng Xiaofan?
Mr. Cheng was truly incredible, daring to take the daughter of a seasoned congressman as his female slave. This courage alone was worthy of worship!
Hearing Yami Di's words, Degleil had to put away the wine.
Cheng Xiaofan said, "I invited everyone out for lunch today to discuss the reopening of the casino, but I didn't expect it to be officially operational already."
"It seems I was right about Degleil; his ability to handle matters is quite impressive!"
Receiving praise from Cheng Xiaofan, Degleil's spirits instantly soared, and he said, "Mr. Cheng, this is what I should do. Serving the Eastern immortal is my lifelong pursuit!"
"Alright, stop being so syrupy with me!"
Cheng Xiaofan waved his hand and said, "Everyone, drink and eat to your heart's content!"
Thus, everyone began to drink and eat.
After they had eaten and drunk their fill, Degleil, being quite thoughtful, didn't just pay the bill. He also booked a room for Cheng Xiaofan so that he and Yami Di could rest in the afternoon.
No one dared to disturb Cheng Xiaofan's rest, and they all dispersed.
Cheng Xiaofan led Yami Di to the resting room and said, "Yami Di, do you want to take a bath before resting?"
Yami Di said, "Let's take a bath first. We can bathe together, and I'll scrub your back!"
Cheng Xiaofan chuckled, thinking that as a master, he didn't really need to be polite with Yami Di.
So, he nodded and said, "Okay!"
More than an hour later.
The two emerged from the bathroom and returned to bed to take a nap.
After sleeping for over two hours, Cheng Xiaofan and Yami Di finally woke up.
Ding ding ding...
Just then, Cheng Xiaofan's mobile phone, placed on the bedside table, suddenly rang.
He picked up the phone and saw that it was Degleil calling.
As soon as he pressed the answer button, he heard Degleil say, "Mr. Cheng, Jebbs has transferred his three groups to your name."
Cheng Xiaofan smiled and said, "Degleil, you've done very well. Thank you for your hard work!"
Degleil immediately replied, "Mr. Cheng, this is what I should do. Where are you? Do you want me to bring you the documents immediately?"
Cheng Xiaofan said, "I'm at a hotel in Chinatown. I'll send you the location right away. I'd like to invite your family and Miller's family to a simple gathering tonight."
"Oh, and by the way, don't bring Hailey when you come. I can't stand that guy and always feel an urge to hit him!"
Degleil said with a fawning smile, "I understand. I won't bring him."
Cheng Xiaofan hung up Degleil's call, then sent him a location. He also sent a text message to Meilena.
There was still some time before the evening.
As a son of a farmer, Cheng Xiaofan had been diligent since childhood. When he was idle, he felt restless if he didn't find something to do.
He immediately pulled Yami Di along, and they played "Ode to Joy" once more.
After playing "Ode to Joy," the sun was already setting in the west.
Cheng Xiaofan looked out the window and saw Degleil's and Meilena's cars parked at the hotel entrance, one after the other.
He quickly led Yami Di, whose steps were a bit unsteady, out of the room.
Upon entering the reserved private room, Cheng Xiaofan immediately ordered the food and drinks.
"Xiaofan, Sister Yami Di, hello. My father and I are here!" At this moment, Meilena pushed open the door to the private room and walked in with Miller.
Cheng Xiaofan smiled and said, "Meilena, Mr. Miller, please have a seat!"
Yami Di also quickly greeted Meilena and Miller.
Degleil followed them into the private room.
Seeing him, Cheng Xiaofan smiled and said, "Mr. Degleil, how did the matter go?"
Degleil, rarely being addressed as "Mr." by Cheng Xiaofan, was flattered and replied, "Mr. Cheng, the matter went very smoothly. Jebbs has transferred all three of his groups to your name."
"Here are the documents!"
He then handed a stack of documents he had tucked under his arm to Cheng Xiaofan.
Cheng Xiaofan knew that Degleil wouldn't dare to play any tricks in front of him. Without even looking at the documents, he pushed them towards Meilena and said, "Meilena, please keep the information of these three groups for me."
"Okay, I'll keep them for you!" Meilena looked very happy as she accepted the stack of documents.
This was enough to show how much Cheng Xiaofan trusted her.
Cheng Xiaofan's gaze swept over the two families and he said, "I've invited your two families here tonight to help you get along better in the future and to stop fighting in court, so that I won't have any worries when I return to China!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Degleil quickly said, "Mr. Cheng, it was all my fault in the past. I shouldn't have treated Mr. Miller that way."
"I will definitely repent and mend my ways in the future. No matter what Mr. Miller does, I will do my utmost to cooperate and support him!"
Cheng Xiaofan listened and smiled slightly, "Degleil, hearing you say that puts my mind at ease. Knowing your mistakes and correcting them, you are teachable!"
Uh!
Why was he speaking to him like an elder addressing a child?
After all, Degleil was Yami Di's father!
Pfft!
Meilena, being familiar with Chinese culture, knew many Chinese idioms. She knew that Cheng Xiaofan was intentionally teasing Degleil and couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Degleil looked at Meilena, bewildered, "Miss Meilena, did I say something wrong? What are you laughing at?"
Meilena said, "Mr. Degleil, you misunderstood. I'm not laughing at you, but at Xiaofan. I find what he said quite humorous!"
Just then, the waiter began to serve the dishes.
Seeing that the table was filled with classic Chinese dishes, Miller said, "Xiaofan, these dishes are very expensive. You've really spent a lot!"
Cheng Xiaofan chuckled and said, "Mr. Miller, this is nothing, just a small gesture!"
However, everyone present thought about Cheng Xiaofan's gains in the United States this time, and indeed, this was nothing. He had plenty of money.
"Yami Di, Mr. Degleil, come, let me toast you and your daughter!"
Cheng Xiaofan raised his glass and said with a beaming smile, "The three groups of Jebbs, as well as the four groups from your family that have been transferred to my name, will depend on you to manage them well."
"After drinking this glass of wine, you are my people!"
