Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen) -
Chapter 1483
Fade was also surprised when he saw her. He smiled and greeted, "Clara, it's you! Why are you here?"
She quickly answered, "Brother Chen, I'm here to welcome the Moo family's guest. Why are you here? Could it bethat..."
Clara looked at him with expectant eyes.
However, he didn't seem to notice this. He explained, "Master Chen and I have some things to deal with, so we came here."
"Oh, it turns out that you are also dealing with your own affairs!" She was slightly disappointed, but then she immediately smiled and asked, "Brother Chen, can you stay here for a few more days, and join me at the Lantern Festival?"
"Lantern Festival?" He was a little confused.
She hurriedly explained, "The Lantern Festival is a traditional festival in Zobery District. At this time of every year, there will be a celebration at the Wavey River in Long City. There will be tons of lanterns, and it's very beautiful."
Upon hearing this, he seemed to have recalled something. It seemed that he recalled a piece of news in Zobery District that reported on the
Lantern Festival. It seemed to be quite popular.
However, he did not immediately agree. Instead, he said, "How about this, I'll discuss it with Master Chen and see what he thinks."
"Well, then I'll look forward to your reply, Brother Chen. Later, I'll ask my dad to send you some invitation cards," Clara answered with a smile.
"You still need invitation cards for the Lantern Festival?"
Clara wrinkled her lovely nose and glanced at Fade and replied, "Brother Chen, the invitation card I mentioned are the tickets for the VIP seats. If you don't have an invitation card, you can only observe it from the outside."
Thinking of this, Fade recalled that the Lantern Festival in Zobery District had a long history, and it was a huge celebration. The number of people who would take part in this celebration was in the thousands. Both sides of the Wavey River would be crowded with people. Without an invitation, Fade really wasn't interested in taking part in this celebration.
"Then I'll have to thank you in advance," he said with a smile. "Clara, you must be waiting for your guest, right? To let you personally welcome him, he should be someone with quite a high status." "Brother Chen, you're teasing me." She stared at him with a frown, then she puffed up her mouth and explained, "Brother Chen, in fact, I don't know him at all. It's just that my father told me that they are very important people, thus he wanted me to personally welcome them. It seems that he is a secretary of some business, or the son of the president of some chambers of commerce. My father values him very much, but I'm not familiar with him!"
"Secretary, president of the Chamber of Commerce!" Hearing this, Fade started to ponder upon her words. It seemed that the Lantern Festival was not just a simple celebration!
Just as he was about to speak again, a pair of leather shoes stomped on the marble floor, and the crisp sound of footsteps could be heard. "Clara!"
Hearing the commotion, she turned around. She saw a man in a suit and tie. He was in his late twenties, and his hair was combed into a slick back. He approached her with a smile. "Keith, you're here," she greeted with a polite smile.
The man named Keith Zheng saw Clara's face, and was taken aback. He smiled and remarked, "Clara, I haven't seen you for nearly five years. I didn't expect you to have grown up so much." "Back then, you were still a little girl with a lollipop sticking out of your mouth. Now, you have grown into a gorgeous lady." Keith smiled and remarked in an intimate tone.
Clara was not used to this kind of intimacy. She frowned slightly and asked, "Keith, has Mr. Zheng arrived yet?"
"My father is taking a private jet here, and your father has gone to pick him up. I just came back from abroad, and that is why I arrived here alone," he explained, revealing how wealthy his family was. Then, he stepped forward and reached out to pat Clara's head. "That small little girl has grown up. When I first saw you, I couldn't believe my eyes."
Seeing his intimate action, she almost instinctively took a step back to avoid his hand. His hand hovered mid-air, and it was extremely awkward.
For a moment, Keith's eyes squinted slightly and his pupils dilated. His expression fell slightly.
However, after accompanying his father to so many business meetings, he had learned some things. Although he was embarrassed, he couldn't let his emotions get out of control. Instead, he looked at Clara and commented, "I haven't met you for just a few years, and now, you don't even allow me to stroke your head."
When she heard this, she had mixed feelings, and didn't know what to reply. She stammered, "Keith, I-I didn't mean that. But, l-l now..."
Before she could finish her words, Keith waved his hand and replied with a smile, "It's fine, Clara, you don't have to explain yourself. I was just joking with you. You are my little sister. How could I blame you?" "Thank you, Keith!" She nodded.
"Clara, you're even calling me by my name. Are we really so distant? You really don't want to recognize me as your brother?"
There was a flash of struggle in her eyes. She glanced at Fade, who was standing next to her. Finally, she reluctantly lowered her head and shouted at him, "Keith, I-I-I am not... I didn't..."
Keith noticed her action, especially when she looked at Fade with a worried expression. His gaze immediately turned cold as he stared at him.
He quickly took a glance at Fade, and after so many business meetings, he was quick to judge someone by their cover.
"This man is in his mid-twenties. He didn't pay much attention to his appearance, so he must be a casual person. His clothes are all bought in the supermarket and at most, cost him a few hundred. He doesn't even have any jewelry or watches to highlight his wealth."
What's more, the aura that Fade was giving off made Keith even more certain about his assumptions.
Therefore, he immediately categorized Fade as the lowest tier, who was the type of person who was not worthy of being his friend.
However, Clara's attitude towards him made Keith curious about him. He covered up the disdain and dissatisfaction in his eyes, then smiled and asked Clara, "Clara, this is..."
She was wondering how to explain it. Concurrently, Keith changed the subject. To some extent, he had saved her from the awkwardness.
Therefore, she introduced with an excited face, "Keith, oh, Keith. This is Fade Chen, Brother Chen. He is my friend, and also the savior of the Moo family."
