“I just returned from out of town.”

Xiao Chen’s words induced a silent ‘oh’ from the group.

To them, his reluctance to speak meant he didn’t dare speak.

After all, no one will give up this opportunity to introduce themselves to potential business partners!

There was only one explanation. Xiao Chen and everyone present wasn’t on the same level!

This made everyone look down on Xiao Chen.

Su Ruoxue was afraid of just this and immediately opened her mouth:

“Xiao Chen is very talented. Although he has just arrived in Jiangbei, he is just as capable as any of you!”

Her explanation seemed like she was defending Xiao Chen. Nobody believed this!

Zhang Tianming smiled coldly and waved his hands.

“Don’t worry, Ruoxue, you don’t have to explain anything. We’re all friends here, we understand.”

Sun Yue also spoke.

“Xiao Chen, rest assured. Since you are Ruoxue’s friend, you are ours as well. Although we aren’t the best of the best in Jiangbei, don’t underestimate us either. In the future, if you want to do business or if you run into trouble, you can contact us! We’re sure to help!”

Zhao Wu also nodded.

“That’s right. We’ve been residing in Jiangbei for a while and have a lot of connections. Just a casual word from us is enough to save you a lot of energy!”

On the surface, everyone seemed to have good intentions, but the arrogance and condescending attitude in their eyes couldn’t escape Xiao Chen’s gaze.

Xiao Chen ignored their remarks and tended to his daughter.

These guys don’t even deserve to touch his shoes. If he acknowledged them, wouldn’t that lower him to their level?

As Xiao Chen continued to ignore them, the group began to banter on their own, becoming tired of his antics.

“Ruoxue, I hear your company is struggling with some issues, do you need our help? If you need funding, we can put some together for you.”

Su Ruoxue shook her head.

“Thank you, but I’m okay. It should be okay in a couple of days.”

“That’s great! Don’t be courteous with us, we’re all friends here. If you need anything, let us know.”

“Thanks.”

Su Ruoxue thanked them again. Qi Nuanyu suddenly tapped on Zhao Wu’s arm and smiled slyly.

“What? Prince Zhao, you want to be her white knight? I heard that the project you invested in recently has made a lot of money—almost 200 million dollars!”

Zhao Wu’s lips perked into a smile as his emotions soared. However, he managed to suppress his pride and smiled lightly.

“This pocket change isn’t worth Ms. Qi’s consideration! You and Tianming co-founded a tech company on your own and in just six months since going public last year, you’ve already tripled the share prices! It seems like you guys are the real breadwinners. Each one of you must have at least 500 million dollars in your pockets!”

“We just play with stocks. We can’t compete with you guys who deal with real estate! We got lucky and harvested a lot this year, but we’re clueless about next year.”

As the group talked, every sentence that came out of their mouths was related to business in the hundreds of millions range. Everyone present was under the age of thirty.

To achieve such success at such a young age… No wonder they were a superior species!

After all, at this age, we don’t talk about success or failure as heroic; only money is recognized as the king!

Qi Nuanyu looked at Zhao Wu and the others as they talked eloquently before looking away. She couldn’t help but reveal a gaze of ridicule at Xiao Chen, who was feeding his daughter cakes and other desserts.

She tapped Su Ruoxue’s shoulder and pursed her lips at Xiao Chen.

“Ruoxue, look at that guy. We’re all at this kind of charity banquet to network with people and make more connections, but he only knows to take his daughter to eat these cheap foods. He’s really a no-good guy! I don’t understand, what do you see in him? You’re being pursued by tens of thousands of people, and you’re the top beauty of Jiangbei! No matter what, you shouldn’t end up with a guy like this, right?”

Su Ruoxue frowned slightly.

“Nuanyu, don’t talk of nonsense. Xiao Chen is very capable. He’s just very modest and hides his talents.”

Qi Nuanyu pouted.

“Stop tricking me! Yours truly’s judgement of people’s abilities is never wrong. Ruoxue, this guy is an immature, unambitious idiot! As your good friend, I must warn you. You cannot be seduced by him!”

Su Ruoxue didn’t know if she should laugh or cry. She shook her head.

“Nevermind. You wouldn’t understand even if I told you. Overall, Xiao Chen and I are just good friends. I will keep it that way!”

Su Ruoxue then headed toward Xiao Chen.

“Hey!”

Qi Nuanyu wanted to continue, but Su Ruoxue was long gone.

Seeing Su Ruoxue and Xiao Chen together,the expressions of Zhao Wu and the others once again went sour.

“Where the hell did this Xiao Chen come from?”

“Yeah, and he’s got a ball and chain with him too. Yet, he’s able to seduce Su Ruoxue to this degree?”

“As Su Ruoxue’s friends, we can’t watch Su Ruoxue be tricked by him!”

“That’s right, we have to find a way to make him retreat!”

Coincidentally, just as Su Ruoxue approached Xiao Chen and barely spoke a few words, Xiao Chen’s phone rang.

He took a glance at the caller ID. it was grandfather Chen!

“Ms. Su, please take care of my daughter for a while. I got to take a call.”

Su Ruoxue nodded.

“Don’t worry, I’ll take care of Ziyi.”

“Thanks, sorry for the trouble.”

Xiao Chen answered his phone and turned to leave.

Zhao Wu and the others looked at each other. Qi Nuanyu turned on her high heels, crossed her arms, and left with an arrogant expression on her face.

“Leave it to me. I’ll make him back off!”

Xiao Chen arrived outside. From the other end of the phone, Mr. Chen’s voice sounded extremely humble.

“Mr. Xiao, you never called me to discuss the Ma family’s affairs today at lunch. I just wanted to call and make sure that you are satisfied.”

Xiao Chen responded curtly.

“Not bad. You did okay.”

As his words came out, Xiao Chen could hear Grandfather Chen’s sigh of relief. He could even imagine the sweat that had accumulated on Grandfather Chen’s forehead.

“As long as you are happy Mr. Xiao! Oh, I also bought some good tea for you. If it’s not too much trouble, I would like to meet you and give it to you in person.”

“Sure. I’m at the Junling Hotel in Jiangbei. If you want to come, then come.”

“Yes, yes, yes! I’ll come right now! Please hang on!”

“No worries. I’ll be here for a while.”

“Even if Mr. XIao is not in a rush to go, I will not dare to make you wait. I’ll be quick and arrive at the Junling Hotel soon.”

“Then I’ll wait for you.”

“Okay!”
