Chapter 213: Chapter 213 The Real High Society Party

"What? This is the Old God of Wealth?!"

The surrounding people heard Chang Yong’s words and were all shocked.

Although few among them had ever seen the real face of the Old God of Wealth, his reputation was renowned to all of them.

In the past, Madam Xu, the Old God of Wealth, was the leader of the entire Huai City banking industry!

The fathers of these so-called young entrepreneurs had all dealt with the Old God of Wealth during their rise to success, so they deeply understood just how much influence this Old God of Wealth had in Huai City.

There was even less need to speak of Chang Yong, whose mother, although currently the branch manager of a Huai City Bank, was but a minor follower under the Old God of Wealth back in the day.

Chang Yong had heard of the Old God of Wealth’s fame since childhood and had once even had the fortune to meet her.

But he had never expected that she would suddenly appear at a common Huai City entrepreneurs’ banquet like this one!

Without another word, Chang Yong hurriedly strode forward to greet her.

"Old God of Wealth, how could your revered self suddenly grace our banquet with your presence? We are so very honored and delighted!"

Hao Deqiang, the host, also came up with a fawning face.

"With the Old God of Wealth’s distinguished arrival, our banquet truly shines!"

Both were more excited than the other, their faces beaming as if flowers had bloomed on them.

Unfortunately, before they could get close, they were directly stopped by the bodyguards.

Madam Xu’s face was livid. "A low-class lawn party like this is also worthy of this old lady’s attendance!"

"Ah? This..."

Chang Yong and Hao Deqiang looked at each other, their faces showing embarrassment.

The crowd present at the banquet felt disgraced by Madam Xu’s humiliating words.

But they all clearly understood in their hearts that they were indeed not on the same level as the Old God of Wealth.

However, they were curious as to why the Old God of Wealth, who held Huai City’s financial lifeline, had come to their banquet.

The answer to this question came quickly.

They saw the Old God of Wealth walk past Chang Yong and Hao Deqiang, heading straight for Chen Xuan.

"Doctor Chen, I was just thinking of personally visiting you tomorrow to express my gratitude. It’s such a coincidence to encounter you here!"

Madam Xu’s face was beaming with a smile, a stark contrast to her earlier attitude toward Chang Yong and Hao Deqiang.

Everyone was stunned; the Old God of Wealth’s visit to the banquet turned out to be for the Han Family’s son-in-law!

Chen Xuan was also surprised to see Madam Xu, and said with a smile, "It seems that Madam Xu has recovered very well."

Madam Xu was overjoyed. "It’s all thanks to Doctor Chen’s help! If it hadn’t been for Doctor Chen’s intervention, this old woman would have had to spend the rest of her life in a wheelchair! Doctor Chen, please accept my bow!"

As she spoke, Madam Xu actually bowed deeply to Chen Xuan.

This scene completely dumbfounded everyone present.

This was the Old God of Wealth who controlled the financial pulse of Huai City, an entity that all the entrepreneurs of Huai City sought to please.

And now, she was actually bowing and showing respect to the Han Family’s son-in-law; it was incredible!

Madam Xu glanced at everyone and then said to Chen Xuan, "Doctor Chen, such a low-grade banquet really doesn’t suit your status. By coincidence, I am hosting a rooftop banquet. If you don’t mind, please come with me."

The scene instantly erupted into an uproar.

A rooftop banquet!

That was the real high society event in Huai City! Those who were eligible to attend the rooftop banquet were all business magnates; any one of them could overshadow everyone at this event!

Compared to the rooftop wine party, their so-called "Entrepreneur’s Lawn Wine Party" was practically child’s play!

Chang Yong stood frozen on the spot, realizing that with his capabilities, he still wasn’t qualified to attend the rooftop party. Yet this despised son-in-law of the Han Family, Chen Xuan, could easily participate, completely outshining him!

Chen Xuan did not decline Madam Xu’s invitation, "Madam Xu is right, such low-grade parties are not worth attending!"

With that, Chen Xuan left with Madam Xu.

However, just after taking a few steps, Chen Xuan paused as if something had occurred to him and turned to look at Lin Cheng.

"Lin Cheng, would you like to join us?"

By then, Lin Cheng was already overcome with shock and had yet to recover. Hearing Chen Xuan’s words only added to his anxiety.

Without a second thought, Lin Cheng hastily shook his head.

"No... no need, I won’t go."

Over the years, Lin Cheng had become accustomed to life at the bottom rungs of society. Suddenly faced with the prospect of mingling with bigwigs from the elite business circles, he felt out of his depth.

Chen Xuan naturally understood Lin Cheng’s feelings and did not insist, leaving with Madam Xu.

After Chen Xuan had left, the lawn wine party erupted into chaos, everyone stunned by Chen Xuan’s influence.

Shock was written all over Han Yaru’s face too.

Was this the same Chen Xuan she knew?

When on earth had he amassed such incredible power?!

The Lakeside Hotel building had ten floors, and as the elevator doors opened, Chen Xuan went up to the rooftop with Madam Xu.

At that moment, the entire rooftop was brilliantly lit.

A glance was all that was needed to see that every aspect of this party was several notches above the lawn party.

Ingredients flown in from overseas filled the tables, and red wines worth over a hundred thousand were freely available for drinking.

Above all, the venue was crowded with wealthy figures from the business world, each one worth billions!

This was what a true high-society wine party looked like!

"Doctor Chen, that’s my eldest son, He Zhengxin, currently a major figure in Huai City’s Investment Promotion Office. Let me introduce you to each other!"

Madam Xu led Chen Xuan to the heart of the party.

At the center was a huge long table that was still empty as if waiting for some esteemed guests.

Only at the very front of the long table sat a middle-aged man in a black jacket and white shirt—it was He Zhengxin.

"Mom, you’re here," said He Zhengxin as he rose to greet Madam Xu.

"Zhengxin, let me introduce you. This is Doctor Chen, the one I’ve been telling you about!"

Madam Xu’s face beamed with enthusiasm, yet He Zhengxin’s expression was relatively indifferent.

"So you’re that Chen Xuan? Thanks for treating my mother. Here’s what we’ll do: Take a seat over there for now. Once I’m done here, I’ll get your compensation to you."

After saying this, He Zhengxin didn’t even spare Chen Xuan another glance, continuing to instruct a few subordinates beside him.

Clearly, He Zhengxin didn’t take Chen Xuan seriously at all, considering him nothing more than a small-time opportunist who had cured his mother and came looking for a reward.

Since He Zhengxin didn’t welcome him, Chen Xuan certainly didn’t lower himself to fawn.

"I never mentioned needing any compensation. Since Director He is so busy, I will take my leave now!"

Having said this, Chen Xuan turned and left.
