Chapter 1113: Chapter 1113: I Like It a Little Rougher (Part 3)
Noticing this small gesture, the senators and General Yuri were secretly surprised, while the brothers of the Huangfu Family and Gan Yuan simply smiled slightly.
The Prince of a country voluntarily giving up the upper seat to a girl, the significance of this is self-evident.
Huangfu Jue raised his hand to signal Helen to instruct the servants to serve the dishes, and Gan Yuan picked up the wine glass in front of him, “I invited everyone tonight to welcome His Highness Andre and General Yuri. First, I want to thank General Yuri for all he has done for the country and the people. The first glass, to General Yuri!”
Everyone raised their glasses. General Yuri wore a rather calm smile, but he was secretly feeling guilty inside.
Even just when he sat in the chair, he still doubted what Huangfu Qi had said, thinking that Gan Yuan didn’t have the strength to bring three countries together against him.
Now, however, he was thoroughly convinced.
Andre’s appearance was enough to prove that Huangfu Qi had not lied, and at this moment, General Yuri’s anger towards Huangfu Qi had even turned into gratitude.
He deeply understood that if Huangfu Qi hadn’t forcibly brought him here, then what awaited him afterward would be either a watery grave or a life spent behind bars.
Holding the wine glass and standing up, his tone was extremely low-key and humble.
“As a soldier, protecting the interests of the country and the people is our duty, our responsibility. I am not worthy of such solemn respect from Her Highness the Princess, so why don’t we toast to His Highness Andre and the two Princes and Princesses from afar instead?!”
As he spoke, he had already turned his glass and extended it towards Huangfu Qi.
“Your Highness the Prince, please!”
Huangfu Qi, being a smart person, knew that the other party had recognized the situation, so he smiled and clinked glasses with him immediately.
“General Yuri, please!”
The two raised their glasses simultaneously and drank the wine in one go.
On the other side, several senators took the initiative to toast to Andre and Chongchong.
“No, this toast should still be for Brother Xiaoqi and Sister-in-law.” Andre smiled while looking at Huangfu Jue and Gan Yuan, raising his wine glass, “Wishing prosperity and strength to F Country!”
“Yes!” Chongchong also extended her glass with him, “Wishing prosperity and strength to F Country!”
Andre deliberately lowered his stature to show respect for Gan Yuan and Huangfu Jue, not only because Huangfu Jue was a big brother he deeply respected, but also to demonstrate an attitude to everyone that if F Country needed assistance, Z Country would be duty-bound.
Someone had already filled the glasses for Huangfu Qi and General Yuri, and everyone extended their glasses to Huangfu Jue and Gan Yuan together.
“Alright, then let’s toast to our country’s continued prosperity and strength!”
“Long live F Country!”
Dolly loudly echoed.
“Long live F Country!”
Everyone raised their glasses together and drank heartily.
As everyone withdrew their glasses and drank, the sumptuous dinner dishes were already served on the table, and Dolly’s gaze, falling on the handsome men and beautiful women seated together at the end of the long table, was one of excitement.
This time, he had indeed chosen the right side.
With such a powerful family as a backing, his Princess Highness was certain to become the master of this country’s destiny.
Not only Dolly, but several other senators also felt a sigh of relief in their hearts, thankful that they chose to stand on Gan Yuan’s side, which was indeed a wise decision.
As everyone continued eating, Andre proactively inquired about the war in the Northwest, “Our navy is in the northwestern seas, and they haven’t had real combat experience for a long time. I very much hope to give them some experience, so can we allow them to participate in your joint military exercises?”
