Chapter 43
Hearing Henry''s concern, Sylvia nodded subconsciously.
"D*mn, show off your love and you will die quickly!" Peter Cheng sat down next to Henry and
stretched out his hand to hold Henry''s shoulder. "Dude, let''s have a drink? Can you tell me how you
got Sylvia in your arms? What do you usually teach her? Let me tell you, although your wife is a
cold female president, a man should have a status at home. You should fight her!"
Henry looked at Sylvia weirdly. Sylvia also looked at Henry when she heard this. When Henry saw
the coldness in her eyes, he smiled tteringly.
Sylvia red at Henry as if to say, "Try one!"
"Hey!" Peter sighed and patted Henry on the shoulder. "Brother, it seems that your family status is
not good."
After saying that, Peter poured himself a ss of wine and drank it. Before he put down the cup, he
heard a strange voice next to him.
"Ah, it''s our Peter. Why don''t you visit your elders first when you get home?"
Henry sat next to Peter and nced at the woman from the corner of his eye. It was a middle-aged
woman in luxurious jewelry. She had heavy makeup on her face and an eye-catching pearl ne
around her neck.
Peter turned his head and squinted at the middle-aged woman. "Auntie, how do you know that I
didn''t visit the elders when I came back?"
"Peter, what do you mean?" The middle-aged woman''s face suddenly became angry. She heard
something in Peter''s words, which meant that she was not his elder?
"Nothing." Peter shook his head. "Let''s eat, let''s eat."
The middle-aged woman snorted and turned away.
During the meal, the people who were seated in the main room frequently walked to Old Master
Cheng and toasted him. Everyone prepared unique words of congrattions.
At Henry''s table, the Lin family did not go with others to toast, but alone. Only Nelson, on behalf of
Robert, walked toward Old Master Cheng with a ss of wine in his hand.
As soon as Nelson got up and left, Richard, who had been silent, said, "Some people don''t know
how to be cautious when they make friends. Don''t implicate our Lin family."
When he spoke, his eyes had been ncing at Henry, Sylvia, and Peter. His meaning was obvious.
"That''s not true. Everyone has different personalities, and the circle of friends is different. Some
people don''t have to be sarcastic here. Am I right, brother-inw?" Chaning smiled at Henry, and
there was a hint of kindness in his smile.
Hearing Chaning''s words, everyone on the table looked at him with puzzlement. They didn''t
understand why he suddenly changed his attitude towards Henry.
"Haha." Chaning sat there with a smile and said nothing.
Sitting on the table, Richard was a little unhappy, but his face was full of pride. Because he knew
that from today on, everyone on this table would follow his lead, including Sylvia. After today, the
first thing he had to do was to take her out of the Lin family. Regarding Chaning, If he dared to
oppose Richard, he would be in trouble!
"Richard, how''s the arrangement going?" his mother whispered to him.
Richard made an OK gesture and whispered, "It''s all arranged. Paul and I found a forty-year-old
wild ginseng."
"Good!" Richard''s mother nodded vigorously. She knew very well what forty-year-old wild ginseng
represented. It was not only expensive but also extremely hard to find. Generally speaking, this kind
of nutrition was especially praised.
The banquet was going on, and everybody sat back in their seat. They knew that the highlight of the
birthday party was about to begin.
Old Master Cheng''s 70th birthday, his hair was already grizzled, and no one knew how many years
he had left. The person selected today was likely to be the future of the Cheng family, the master of
the family!
There were three main descendants in the Cheng family.
Peter, Paul, and Simon Cheng.
Among the three, Paul and Simon were the most favored ones. No one cared about Peter.
Everyone knew that Cheng''s parents and grandchildren were not concerned about this at all.
After everyone finished toasting, Paul Cheng stood up first under the encouragement of his mother.

"Grandpa, may you be vigorous and refreshed! I wish you a happy 70th birthday. I''ve found ginseng
especially for you." Paul held a delicate sandalwood box in his hand, which exuded a faint
fragrance.
When he spoke, everyone in the main house focused their eyes on him.
Richard sat there, put down his chopsticks, and looked over.
Harry, who was wearing a Tang suit, did not speak immediately. He first nced at Peter, who was
sitting at the table with the Lins family, and then looked at Paul Cheng.
Seeing this scene, Paul was secretly delighted. As the oldest grandson, Peter, you didn''t have the
first birthday wish. Now it was my turn. Let''s see what you will do!
Paul put the wooden box in front of Harry. Harry''s expression was calm. He reached out his
wrinkled hand and opened the box.
At the moment when the wooden box was opened, there was a sound of gasping in the room.
"A 35-year-old ginseng! At least 35 years old!" A knowledgeable merchant couldn''t help shouting.
"Mr. Wong, you''re specialized in this field. What''s your opinion?" One of them didn''t understand the
ginseng, so he asked doubtfully.
Mr. Wong nodded and exined to the crowd, "The ginseng is divided into many kinds, among
which the most precious kind is the wild ginseng, which is different from the mountain ginseng and
garden ginseng which are artificial. The survival rate of wild ginseng is extremely low and it is on the
verge of extinction. And this kind of ginseng can only be found in the primeval forest. Generally, it is
very rare if it is more than 15 years old. This one is 35 years old, that is just remarkable,
unbelievable. I don''t believe that money can buy it!"
When Mr. Wong looked at the ginseng, there was an obsession in his eyes.
After listening to Mr. Wong''s words, everyone immediately understood the value of this ginseng. If
so, the 35 years old wild ginseng could not be bought with money. There were so many people
keeping an eye on it! There were so many rich people in China, and all of them were afraid of
death. Who didn''t want to get more of this kind of treasure?
"Okay." Harry Cheng nodded and said only one word.
This word made Paul ecstatic. His mother also showed a happy look in her eyes. After that, she
red at Peter fiercely. She was the one who just taunted Peter.
At this time, Richard couldn''t help but grin. He had heard that Harry Cheng was a person who didn''t
talk andugh. If he could say a good word, it meant that he was very satisfied.
