Master's Untamed Wife

Chapter 631 Moral Support

Minister Chen had chosen to hold the banquet at his own home which was a courtyard-style place. It was grand and gave a historical vibe adding majesty to the owner of the home.

The main hall was filled with people from different walks of life. And each and every single person in the hall was standing at the top of his or her field. With polite smiles, everyone was greeting the people they were familiar with or trying to talk to people they wanted to make connections with.

Mrs. Chen indeed loved the lively scenes a lot and she was really happy to have so many people gathered around for her birthday. She didn't even know her husband had planned so much. But she was touched and very happy.

Raelle and Cloe's entrance seemed to have garnered some attention from the participants of this banquet. After all, among all these middle-aged and old people, these two were really young and stood out too much with their appearance. Raelle walked straight to Minister Chen and greeted him.

Minister Chen smiled at her, "I'm very happy to see you here, President Raelle."

Raelle wore her most beautiful smile as she said, "Since Minister Chen invited me, I had to come. Also, please call me Raelle. You're an elder and it doesn't seem right for you to keep calling me so formally when we aren't even discussing business."

Minister Chen's smile became even more sincere as he said, "This is why I like you, child." He held the hand of his wife and introduced, "Meet my wife."

"Hello, Mrs. Chen," said Raelle. She took a gift box from Cloe and offered it to her, "This is a small gift for you. I wish you health and prosperity."

Mrs. Chen took the gift and couldn't help smiling gently at the woman before her. In her view, this woman dressed in white was just too beautiful and she felt so comfortable just looking at her smile. Who wouldn't feel good about such a good-natured child? At least, she was floored.

"Aiyah, child, you didn't have to," said Mrs. Chen.

Cloe also stepped up and greeted her, "This is a gift from me. I wish you happiness and beauty. May you keep blooming like a beautiful flower with each passing year and your love deepens like the depth of the east sea."

Raelle paused and turned her head to look at Cloe, "I didn't know you have a knack for flattery."

Cloe's smile stiffened, "Chief, this isn't flattery. I'm sincerely complimenting Mrs. Chen."

"Oh, how come I never heard you complimenting me?"

Cloe gave her a stinky eye, "You have anything I can compliment about?"

Minister Chen and his wife laughed at these two who didn't even care about where they were. It really made their old hearts feel happy seeing such lively youngsters. Especially since they were always surrounded by people's fake flattery or their cautious acts around them. So, this was refreshing and quite enjoyable for both of them.

"Chief, let's stop here," said Cloe when she heard the laughter. "We shouldn't embarrass ourselves anymore."

"What is an embarrassment?" questioned Raelle. "Can you eat it? Isn't it good enough that our silly act made Mr. and Mrs. Chen laugh so heartily?"

Cloe wanted to shout at her boss right now, 'Who was using flattery now?!' But deep down she knew that Raelle wasn't flattering anyone. She never did and she never will. She must be genuinely finding that laughter likable and that's why she said. And she couldn't complain about that. Even though Raelle didn't smile herself, that didn't mean she didn't like it when people gave her a sincere smile.

"We made you see a joke," said Cloe sheepishly.

Mrs. Chen waved off her hand, "Not at all. You both are really cute. I have never seen a boss and employee like you two. It's certainly a sight to remember."

Cloe still smiled sheepishly while Raelle had no reaction to it all.

"We should go over there," said Cloe to Raelle. "Mrs. Chen has to greet other guests as well."

"Yes, yes, both of you make yourself comfortable," said Mrs. Chen. "I'll find you, ladies, later."

Minister Chen looked at the bright smile on his wife's face and looked at Raelle, "I think it was the right decision to invite you today."

Raelle didn't know why he said it but she didn't care enough to find out either. She walked away from them with Cloe who kept looking around and kept introducing her to people while saying, "Didn't I tell you, this is a grand event? Look, it's like all the important people of the country have gathered here. Only a minority is from the business circle like us. So, it's really an honor for us to be invited here."

"Okay," was Raelle's response. It was such a dry response that Cloe felt like banging her head against the wall.

"Come on, let's talk to others," said Cloe. "No, you don't have to talk. I'll do the talking but you have to stand beside me."

"For what?" was Raelle's question.

Cloe thought about it before saying, "For moral support."

Raelle stopped in her track and looked at Cloe, "You really need my moral support. Can you afford it?"

"Chief, be serious!"

"I always am."

"No, I meant to be serious about making some connections. I can tell you, not just any Tom, Dick, and Harry can enter this banquet. We are lucky and we should take advantage of this."

Raelle's eyes swept over the crowd and locked on a few faces. She stared at these faces in concentration before turning Cloe's face and pointing at those faces saying, "Let me show you how Tom, Dick, and Harry also joined the party."

Cloe was taken aback by Raelle's words but she didn't think he was joking so she followed the direction she was pointing and looked carefully. When she noticed the three people she just called Tom, Dick, and Harry, Cloe didn't know what to say.
