Mai Huade has been the Governor of Hong Kong for two years and has never seen anyone dare to contradict him. His blue eyes were full of confusion as he looked at Zhou Zhi, "Who is this lady?"

  Zhou Zhi recognized the jewelry Chu Yuening was wearing at a glance. It was the same set he gave to his savior.

  react to.

  He smiled and said, "He is my honored guest."

  Xu Dan couldn't help but cover her mouth in shock, "Ning Ning?"

  Chu Yuening also recognized Sister Dan. She never expected that the sister with whom she once went shopping and drank coffee together was actually Officer Zhou's mother.

  She winked at Xu Dan playfully, "Sister Dan, the world is really small."

  MacHuad's face was slightly gloomy. The British side asked him to win over the powerful people in Hong Kong, and even if he really returned, he had to bring the prosperous economy of the local area back to Britain.

  Since he is a distinguished guest of the Zhou family, he naturally does not want to offend him.

  But the lost face must be recovered, otherwise how can he be the governor of a port?

  "Ms. Chu, you may have misunderstood. I was just introducing my daughter to the Zhou family. My daughter was born into an aristocratic family and is a true lady of high rank. I believe that compared to Eric's unknown sweetheart, my daughter is more perfect."

  "As old friends, it would be best if we could become closer." At the end of his speech, Mai Huade smiled and made a sarcastic remark.

  "Hong Kong is a society of celebrities. You can tell from your accent that you are from the mainland, right? You value freedom and equality, and you may not understand the integrity passed down by our ancient families."

  "I'm sorry, I really can't understand your family tradition." Chu Yuening smiled faintly, "If the daughter knew that she was being used as a bargaining chip or a commodity to show off, I wonder what she would think of her integrity."

  Mai Huade was silent, secretly thinking about how to deal with the situation.

  But then I heard what the girl said.

  "Mr. Mak, there have been many governors since Hong Kong was founded, but you are the only one who treats women as commodities. I have seen the gentlemanly behavior of British nobles."

  "There are only two years left until the return of sovereignty. Before you leave completely, please learn to respect women."

  Someone at the scene couldn't help but secretly say "good".

  Many ladies heard what McHugh said.

  Due to MacHugh's status as Governor of Hong Kong, they dared not speak out.

  Now that Chu Yuening was able to speak up for them, the ladies felt much better.

  That's right, outstanding women never need to compete with each other. It is really disgusting that Mai Huade is willing to belittle all the women in Hong Kong just to marry into the Zhou family.

  Mai Huade's face darkened, and Mrs. Mai's lace-gloved hands nervously stroked the rose next to her hat.

  "Mr. Mai." Zhou Zhi smiled. "My family is all born and raised in China. We are used to eating Manchu and Han banquets. Western food is really hard for us to swallow."

  In one sentence, the position is made clear.

  Mai Huade's face was full of anger, but he couldn't break off relations with the Zhou family. After all, he still had to serve for two years at least. Offending the Zhou family would affect his ability to win over other people.
