Chapter 723: Chapter 793: Now This Is Interesting

The young guard strode over first and saluted Jian Rong, "Marshal!"

Jian Rong waved his hand with a smile, "What Marshal, I’m not a Marshal anymore, just call me Elder Jian."

The young guard acknowledged, and Jian Rong turned to the girl nicknamed ’little chili pepper’ and beckoned, "Huimin, come here and let me have a good look at you. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen you, you’ve become prettier."

The girl called Huimin walked up to Jian Rong, pouted slightly, and said with a cute, coquettish demeanor, "Elder Jian."

Jian Rong laughed heartily. Zhao Xueying continued to speak softly to Fang Yi at his side, telling him the young guard’s name was Luo Feng, and the ’little chili pepper’ was General Zhu’s granddaughter, named Zhu Huimin.

Fang Yi nodded, taking note, and then Luo Feng led them into the building.

The building here was not like a residential apartment block but rather a standalone structure. They first entered the living room, where a middle-aged man came over quickly to greet Jian Rong and Zhao Xueying, and Fang Yi received a greeting as well.

This man was named Secretary Liu, assistant secretary to General Zhu.

After greeting them, Secretary Liu quickly went to make tea for the three guests, while Zhu Huimin went through the back door to the backyard to summon her grandfather.

Secretary Liu invited the three of them to sit down, focusing mainly on chatting with Jian Rong. Although Jian Rong had retired from his position as Marshal, his reputation preceded him, and being an acquaintance of the General, it was natural for Secretary Liu to be an attentive host.

"Elder Jian, please wait a moment. The General is taking a walk in the backyard and should come here shortly," Secretary Liu said with a smile.

"Sure, no rush," said Jian Rong.

Suddenly, something seemed to strike Secretary Liu as he slapped his thigh, "Oh dear, look at my memory. Elder Jian, if you’ll excuse me, I need to go out and buy a bottle of good wine for the General."

This caught Jian Rong’s curiosity, "Good wine?"

Logically, with the General’s status, he should have access to all sorts of fine wines. Why would he need to go out and buy some?
