The Great Showbiz Commando

Chapter 28 Mr. Zhou's Birthday Party

After thinking for a while, Muriel turned back, agilely dodged the surveillance monitor and sneaked into

the room of Joseph. She saw the coat on the hanger and quietly put a tiny audio monitor in the coat.

After that, she left the military compound and hailed a taxi to leave.

Sitting in the living room, Joseph looked at his watch and frowned slightly. 'She had been in the army

for so long, but she had no idea of time. It was really disappointing!'

Joseph called the nanny over, "Ask Muriel to come down."

The nanny nodded and went upstairs quickly. She knocked on the door of Muriels room, but no one

opened it. She called several times outside, but there was no response from inside.

The nanny thought for a while and immediately opened the door, only to find that there was no one in

the room, and Muriel's suitcase was open on the ground.

Seeing the nanny trotting downstairs alone, Joseph's heart sank, "What's wrong?"

"Sir, bad news! Miss Muriel is missing. She is not in the room. " The nanny said to Joseph in a hurry.

"What? be missing? How could it be possible? " Joseph called the security guard and asked, "Hello, did

Muriel leave the neighborhood just now?"

The security guard checked the in and out registration and replied, "No."

After hanging up the phone angrily, Joseph strode to Muriel's room. Looking at the dress on the bed

and the open suitcase on the ground, he went straight to the window. Looking at the clear footprints on

the wall, he angrily threw his walking stick to the ground. "Bastard!"

Joseph estimated the time and immediately dialed a number.

The captain was surprised to receive the call from Joseph. "Hello?"

"Has Muriel gone back to the barracks?"

"Come back to the barracks? Didn't she just go back to B City this morning? I have given her two

weeks off. Why did she come back so soon? There is no emergency. " The captain asked in confusion.

Joseph scolded angrily, "Damn it! I'm going to take her to the birthday party tonight, but I didn't expect

her to run away."

"Run away? It can't be true. Why did she run away from a birthday party? By the way, whose birthday Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

party is it? " The captain asked curiously.

After hesitating for a while, Joseph said, "Old Zhou."

The captain immediately understood, "You took her on a blind date, didn't you? Don't tell me that I

guess wrong. Last time when the joint training was held, the boy of the Zhou family had been staring at

her. Muriel is just a little girl. Why is she in such a hurry to get married? "

"It's none of your business. Inform me immediately if she returns to the army." Then he hung up the

phone without waiting for the other party's answer.

"Hello?" Hearing the empty sound from the other end of the phone, the captain could not help but sigh.

The driver stepped forward and asked carefully, "Sir, are we leaving? It's already six fifteen. "

Joseph glanced at the nanny. The nanny picked up the crutch on the ground and handed it to him.

Then she went to the room and took out his coat.

After getting dressed, Joseph said to the driver with a livid face, "Let's go!"

At the birthday party, the guests arrived one after another. They greeted each other with champagne in

their hands. Leonard clinked glasses with the guests and looked at the entrance.

As soon as the familiar car came in, he walked quickly to the old man who got out of the car and said

respectfully, "Hello, Grandpa Mu."

"Hello. Where is your grandpa? I'll go and congratulate him." Joseph said kindly to Leonard.

"Grandpa is here. I'll take you there." Leonard looked at the other door in confusion. Why didn't Muriel

get off the car? He looked into the car and found no one except the driver.

Leonard asked anxiously, "Muriel... Didn't Miss Mu come with you? Didn't she promise to come with

you? "

A look of regret appeared on Joseph's face. He patted Leonard on the shoulder and said, "I'm sorry.

There's an emergency in the army and they called her back. She also wanted to come here, but you

know, soldiers have to obey orders, and she has no choice. "

Hearing Joseph's explanation, Leonard didn't know what to say. He could only feel sorry for himself,

"Grandpa Mu, I'll take you to see my grandfather."

"Okay." Joseph looked at Leonard up and down and thought that he was a smart young man.

"Old Mu, long time no see." When Mr. Zhou saw Joseph, he immediately asked someone to bring him

a cup of hot tea.

"Long time no see." Joseph winked at the driver behind him and the security guard handed the gift to

him.

Mr. Zhou patted the back of his hand and said, "I'm satisfied that you are here. What a gift for? "

Joseph said, "It's not a big deal."

Leonard took the gift. When Mr. Zhou saw that Joseph only came with the driver, he asked curiously,

"Where is your granddaughter? Doesn't she come? "

Joseph laughed and said, "There is an emergency mission in the army, so they called her back. It's a

pity that she didn't come to celebrate your birthday. "

"Ha ha, I heard from Leonard that your granddaughter is very handsome. I only have one grandson,

and you are very happy. People say that daughters and granddaughters are sweet cotton padded

jacket. You really make others envy you." Mr. Zhou said after taking a sip of tea.

Joseph clenched his crutch and sneered in his heart, 'Envy me? Do you envy my family for being

destroyed?

Joseph was furious, but his expression didn't change. "Well, well, when she finishes her work, I'll bring

her here to make amends."

Then they chatted casually. Leonard looked at them anxiously and kept winking at his grandfather. Mr.

Zhou glared at him with dissatisfaction and then looked at Joseph. "What do you think of the marriage

between Leonard and Muriel?"

"No problem. Muriel likes Leonard, too." Joseph's eyes lit up and answered immediately.

"Oh? She doesn't object? " Mr. Zhou was a little surprised.

"How could she object?" said Joseph with a laugh.

Leonard, who was standing aside, felt warm in his heart when he heard what Joseph said.

"Well, let's pick a date and get married some other day." Looking at his grandson's silly smile, Mr. Zhou

smirked in his heart.

"Okay." Joseph was so happy that he picked up the tea cup and was about to drink it, only to find that

he had finished the tea.

Leonard immediately picked up the teapot and walked up to him, "Grandpa Mu, let me make you a cup

of tea."

"You silly child. Why are you still call him Grandpa Mu?" Mr. Zhou teased with a smile.

Leonard looked at him excitedly and shouted, "Grandpa, have some tea."

"Okay." Joseph looked at Mr. Zhou with a smile.

Muriel heard the conversation with earphones and got angry. She punched the table angrily.

Bang! Muriel broke a leg of the table with a punch.

After the birthday party, all the guests left. After Leonard's mother knew that her son's marriage was

settled, she couldn't help but ask anxiously, "Dad, isn't it too hasty? We haven't seen the child yet. How

could he be engaged so soon? What if that kid hurts Leonard because of her bad character?

"
