639: Chapter 359: The Host Struggles Against the Guests (5-in-1)_2 639: Chapter 359: The Host Struggles Against the Guests (5-in-1)_2 Su Feng and Su Yiyang exchanged puzzled looks, not knowing what to do.
Su Tianhao’s face turned as dark as coal, his facial muscles twitching involuntarily.
Fadessa and Beludo also looked at each other in confusion.
“Su Ming, you’re really a Quasi-General?”
Su Mulong took a deep breath, suppressing his astonishment, and asked.
“Yes.”
Su Ming nodded calmly.
“Su Ming, you must be joking.
How could you be a Quasi-General?
It’s impossible to get promoted so quickly!”
Su Zhen Tian felt like he was dreaming.
At this moment, Su Mulong angrily scolded Su Zhen Tian.
“Damn it, you don’t even know what’s going on with your own grandson.
What are you doing all day?”
Su Zhen Tian was stunned by Su Mulong’s scolding and didn’t know how to respond.
Su Ming heard Su Mulong scold Su Zhen Tian and his expression turned very interesting.
Wasn’t this the same thing he had been scolded with by his father?
Now he finally knew where his grandfather got it from.
Indeed, like father, like son.
Not only did they have identical tempers, but their scolding was exactly the same.
After scolding Su Zhen Tian, Su Mulong turned to Su Ming and asked seriously.
“When do you start your further studies?”
“Sometime soon, I’m waiting for the notification,” explained Su Ming.
“So you’ll be in the same period as Su Yuan.”
“Probably.”
“Good, that’s great!
You and Su Yuan must help each other.”
Su Mulong said to Su Ming happily.
“Sure.”
Su Ming nodded.
Then Su Mulong turned to Su Yuan and said,
“Su Yuan, you must learn a lot from your cousin.
He’s your example, you know what I mean.”
Su Feng, the Clan Leader, was about to say something for his son but got silenced by a glare from Su Mulong.
In fact, Su Mulong knew better than anyone that Su Yuan’s promotion had some favors involved.
Some of his military achievements were given to him by Su Yao.
They thought they had covered it up perfectly, but the old geezers in the Military Department and the Council had already seen through it.
They just turned a blind eye because of Su Mulong’s reputation.
But Su Ming was different.
He hadn’t received any support, and his achievements came from real military expeditions, earned through hard fighting.
This was why Su Mulong told Su Yuan to learn from Su Ming.
“Yes,” Su Yuan replied with a somewhat unnatural expression.
At this moment, Fadessa and Beludo finally came to their senses.
Fadessa quickly asked,
“Su Mulong, how old is your great-grandson this year?”
“How old are you?”
Su Mulong turned to Su Ming and asked.
“20,” Su Ming replied hesitantly.
“Wow, 20 years old and already a Quasi-General, the youngest in history!”
Beludo’s cloudy eyes suddenly brightened, and he looked at Su Ming differently.
Everyone at the main table was further shocked.
Su Yao became increasingly interested in her cousin.
How strong must he be to become a Quasi-General at the age of 20?
She had been serving in the most dangerous places on the front lines and only got to Quasi-General in her thirties.
“Damn it, haven’t you ever heard that young heroes emerge throughout history?”
Su Mulong laughed and replied.
“Well said.
By the way, young brother Su Ming, are you married?”
Beludo asked directly.
“Uh, no,” Su Ming replied, a bit taken aback.
“Hey, old buddy, why are you asking this?”
Su Mulong smiled and looked at Beludo.
“Oh, nothing.
I was just thinking Belice and Su Ming are about the same age; they could learn from each other,”
Beludo said with a smile to Su Mulong.
Su Yuan’s expression turned sour upon hearing Beludo’s words.
Miss Belice was Beludo’s beloved granddaughter and his sister’s best friend.
She was outstanding in beauty, talent, and family background.
Many young talents wanted to contact Miss Belice, and the queue could stretch outside the city.
Their family had often hinted at Beludo about whether he favored any young talents.
But Beludo had always avoided responding directly, using various excuses.
Today was the exception; he actively brought it up.
Clearly, he had set his sights on Su Ming.
Su Mulong laughed and said,
“Old man, finally you’re willing!”
“Look at you, I’ve always been willing.
And it’s good for young people to interact more,”
Beludo replied with a smile.
“Alright, Su Ming, you can spend some time with Miss Belice when you’re free.”
Su Mulong said to Su Ming in a good mood.
“Sure,”
Su Ming, though a bit troubled, still politely agreed.
“Great, today is truly joyous!”
After saying that, Su Mulong stood up.
Everyone looked at Su Mulong in shock as he walked up to the podium, clapped his hands, and shouted.
“Everyone, quiet down and listen to me for a moment!”
Swish!
In an instant, the noisy hall became quiet, and all eyes focused on Su Mulong.
“Damn it, today is really exciting.
The younger generation of the Su Family has produced two Quasi-Generals, one is my great-grandson Su Yuan, and the other is Su Ming!”
This statement caused the entire audience to erupt.
“Did I hear that right?
The Su Family produced two Quasi-Generals?”
“No way!”
“Who is this Su Ming?”
“Wait, this Su Ming sounds familiar, like the second-place winner of the Three Schools Competition.
Is he also from the Su Family?”
….
Su Yao and others were stunned, saying in disbelief.
“Su Ming is a Quasi-General?”
“Su Yuan, Zhao Ning, did you know?”
