Nestled in Chen Mo's arms, Lu Xingyao heard the words "Major General" and curiously looked up, blinking her eyes as she asked.

"What kind of 'major general' rank is that, you scumbag?"

As she spoke, she turned to look at Ye Yunshu beside her, looking for an answer.

Ye Yunshu sat quietly without saying a word, only glancing at Chen Mo.

Chen Mo remained expressionless, reached out and pulled Ye Yunshu to his side, patting her shoulder.

"The last time I went to the capital, the Ye family took a liking to me and wanted to marry her to me."

"Think about it, the Ye family is a prestigious family in the capital, while I come from an ordinary family. We are not a good match, and it wouldn't sound good if word got out."

As Chen Mo spoke, he kissed Ye Yunshu.

"So, in order to save face, the Ye family has to give me a title first? The rank of Major General sounds impressive enough, perfect."

"what?"

Lu Xingyao's eyes widened as she looked at Chen Mo's serious face and then at Ye Yunshu's calm expression, feeling somewhat bewildered.

"Sister Yunshu, is what he said true?"

She nudged Ye Yunshu's arm.

Ye Yunshu leaned against Chen Mo and said gently.

"Whatever Brother Mo says goes."

This ambiguous attitude only made Lu Xingyao believe it more.

She wrinkled her nose and muttered to herself, counting on her fingers.

"Wait a minute, didn't you say you wouldn't get married? If you become the Ye family's son-in-law in the future, then what am I...?"

Before they could finish speaking, Chen Mo's shoulders twitched, and then Ye Yunshu turned her face away, unable to suppress her laughter. The two of them burst out laughing at the same time.

Lu Xingyao immediately realized that she had been tricked again.

"Fine! You all ganged up on me!"

She raised her hand and gently patted Chen Mo's chest twice, the force soft and gentle, like tickling.

"I'm so angry! Why do you lie to me every single day?!"

Chen Mo laughed so hard he grabbed her hand and held it tightly. After he had finished laughing, he deliberately put on a serious face and cleared his throat.

"Seriously, I'm a lieutenant general now, so don't call me a scumbag in front of outsiders. Give me some face, understand?"

Lu Xingyao, who was still fuming, immediately shrank back and nodded obediently upon hearing this.

"Understood, Major General Chen."

Her obedient appearance made Chen Mo chuckle, and he reached out to pinch her soft cheeks.

"Just kidding. Do what you have to do. When have I ever cared about those superficial things?"

"I knew you were kidding me."

Lu Xingyao pouted, buried her face in his chest again, and sullenly complained.

"I'll remember this debt and settle it with you later."

She said that, but she wasn't stupid; she wouldn't let her man lose face in public.

After resting for a while, Chen Mo thought of Shen Yi and the others, and turned to ask Ye Yunshu.

"Where are Shen Yi and the others now?"

"A bar in the city center."

Ye Yunshu put down her teacup.

"They said they'd go relax for a bit first."

"bar?"

Chen Mo's eyes lit up, and he instantly became interested.

He stayed in Tianxuan Continent for a month. There wasn't much entertainment there, so at night he basically just stayed in bed making babies.

Therefore, in many families on the Tianxuan Continent, children live in large groups...

Now that we're back on Earth, it's a good time to go out for a couple of drinks to cheer ourselves up.

"Let's go join the fun."

He patted Lu Xingyao's waist.

"You two go upstairs and change your clothes. We're going out tonight."

"Yay!"

Lu Xingyao immediately jumped up from his arms, her earlier temper vanished, and she pulled Ye Yunshu towards the bedroom.

"Sister Yunshu, let's hurry up, let's dress nicely!"

Before long, the two of them came out of their respective bedrooms.

Lu Xingyao wore a fitted halter-neck mini dress, high-heeled sandals, and thin stockings that covered her legs, which were white and straight.

She deliberately ran up to Chen Mo, twirled around, her skirt fluttering slightly, and asked with a smile.

"How is it? Does it look good?"

Ye Yunshu wore a black fitted dress, also with stockings and high heels, which accentuated her slim waist and long legs, giving her a cool and alluring look.

Unlike Lu Xingyao, she didn't show off; she simply stood at the top of the stairs and glanced at Chen Mo indifferently.

Chen Mo walked up to Lu Xingyao and reached out to grab her wrist.

"It's so beautiful. I'm almost mesmerized. Let's go!"

Lu Xingyao pouted, clearly dissatisfied.

Ye Yunshu took the car keys and drove the two of them to the city center.

There was a lot of traffic in Hangzhou at night, with streetlights stretching out in a row. The car windows were half open, and the wind blowing in made people feel very comfortable.

The car had just stopped in front of the bar when the door was pulled open from the outside.

Shen Yi bent over, a smile plastered on his face.

"Brother Mo! We've been waiting for you!"

Han Ziang and Zhou Zitao followed behind him, and the two greeted him with smiles.

"Brother Mo, it's been a long time."

Standing further back was Ye Jingge, wearing an ordinary black T-shirt, but his back was ramrod straight.

He stepped forward and nodded to Chen Mo.

"Mr. Chen, the rank certificate is all ready. I'll bring it to you tomorrow."

Chen Mo nodded.

"Let's go in first and talk!"

Shen Yi led the way, grinning from ear to ear.

"I specially booked the best booth, 888, and all the drinks are ready. Brother Mo, you'd better drink a lot tonight, we won't leave until we're drunk!"

"OK."

Chen Mo smiled.

"I've been feeling really stifled lately, so tonight's the perfect time to catch up."

The group walked inside, talking as they went.

The music in the bar was so loud it made people tremble, and colorful lights swept across the crowded heads. Men and women were packed together on the dance floor, creating a lively atmosphere.

After weaving through the crowd, we arrived at booth 888, which was located right in the middle of the lobby and had the best view.

The table was already laden with foreign liquor, champagne, and fruit platters, and steam was rising from the ice bucket.

Everyone sat down in turn, and Shen Yi immediately opened a bottle of wine and poured it for everyone.

"Here's the first drink, to welcome Brother Mo!"

Shen Yi raised his glass, his voice quite loud.

After a few drinks, the atmosphere gradually warmed up.

Han Ziang and Zhou Zitao surrounded Chen Mo, asking when they would make another move in the US stock market, as they had already prepared the funds.

Chen Mo gave a casual reply, leaned back on the sofa with his wine glass in hand, and listened to the deafening music without feeling any discomfort.

This was the first time Chen Mo had ever been to a bar to drink in his entire life.

Back in the day, when I got together with my brothers back in my hometown, we'd either sit at the dinner table at home or go to a roadside barbecue stall to drink.

A strong wind was blowing, fireworks were floating, a few bottles of beer were downed, and people were chatting and boasting, relaxed and carefree.

Compared to the chaotic and noisy atmosphere, the bright lights and deafening music of a bar offer a completely different experience.

Fresh, relaxing, and without having to be on edge, it's definitely a different experience.

Just then, the DJ on stage suddenly changed the song, and the energetic music came to an abrupt end.

Immediately afterwards, the DJ grabbed the microphone and shouted in a high-pitched voice.

"All the handsome men and beautiful women here, let's all focus our attention on the 888 Supreme Booth!"

Many thanks to our young master Huang for his generous support, who specially arranged for our distinguished guest from Beijing to purchase the complete set of the Ace of Spades Dragon!

Wishing our VIP members Shen, Han, Zhou, and Huang in the 888 VIP booth a wonderful night, with fine wine in their glasses and good fortune in their hands! Let's give them a round of applause and cheers!

P.S.: I have a feeling Portugal is going to lose tonight.
