Chapter 322: Chapter 322: Young Man, You Don’t Want to Try Hard Anymore, Do You? (One More)

"Why would you come to such a lowbrow gathering?"

Upon hearing Du Wende’s words, the entire banquet hall fell into a dead silence.

Everyone felt incredibly awkward, especially Lin, the organizer of the gathering, and billionaire Qu Yuntian, whose faces turned unsightly.

Despite their anger, they dared not retort.

If anyone else had said that, they would certainly have been outraged and collectively responded.

Anyone here easily had a net worth of billions, with most having tens of billions. In Shanghai, they were all high-status individuals.

But now, the one speaking was the head of the 300-billion-worth Du Real Estate Group. How could they argue with him?

"Oh, it’s Mr. Du."

Hearing someone call him, Chu Chen looked over in surprise and saw it was Du Wende.

"I’m the owner of Shengtang Auction House. I got invited, and since I was free, I came."

Chu Chen explained.

"Oh, so Mr. Chu is also the owner of Shengtang Auction House. You truly are an accomplished young man."

Du Wende spoke with a hint of ingratiation.

Huh?!

Hearing Du Wende’s words, everyone in the banquet hall was dumbfounded.

They couldn’t believe their ears. Was this really Du Wende, the super-rich talking?

The dignified chairman of Du Real Estate Group, a tycoon in Shanghai’s real estate industry, was actually trying to flatter a young man.

And he was just the owner of Shengtang Auction House.

Although they weren’t sure of its exact value, it certainly wasn’t worth over a billion.

Yet now, since Du Wende was currying favor with the owner of Shengtang Auction House, it could only mean one thing.

That is, this young man’s identity was definitely not simple. He must be a low-profile major figure, perhaps from a prominent family in Beijing.

"This..."

Lin, the organizer of the banquet, stood there awkwardly.

Indeed, he had invited the owner of Shengtang Auction House, having previously collaborated with them.

With so many guests, Lin had pushed Chu Chen, the owner of Shengtang Auction House, aside, not giving him any special attention.

He considered Chu Chen’s status to be the lowest among the guests, unworthy of such attention.

But now, even Du Wende wanted to curry favor with Chu Chen.

This...

For a moment, Lin deeply regretted his decision.

On the other side, Song Jiashi stared at Chu Chen, slack-jawed.

If Du Wende went out of his way to please him, Chu Chen’s identity was certainly much more than just the owner of Shengtang Auction House.

He even dared to provoke him, showing off about knowing important people in front of him.

Wasn’t this akin to wielding a machete in front of Guan Yu?

As he thought about it, cold sweat rolled down Song Jiashi’s face, making his vision go black.

Moreover, Qu Yuntian, the arrogant billionaire, was trembling hard, and his legs were shaking. If he weren’t holding onto his chair, he might have collapsed to the ground out of fear.

Earlier, he had sarcastically compared Chu Chen to a "nobody."

But now, he was amazed to discover that the very person he underestimated was actually a significant figure he couldn’t help but admire.

Qu Yuntian was stunned by fear.

As for those customers who were flattering Song Jiashi near Chu Chen earlier, they were equally dumbfounded.

So, Chu Chen was the truly low-profile important person.

"Mr. Chu, I’m sorry. I really didn’t recognize you earlier."

At this point, disregarding his pride, Qu Yuntian quickly approached, bowed, and apologized to Chu Chen.

Slap!

Slap!

Slap!

After bowing, Qu Yuntian fiercely slapped himself, asking Chu Chen for forgiveness.

Seeing Qu Yuntian like this, Song Jiashi didn’t dare to stand aside either. He stepped forward to apologize to Chu Chen, slapping himself.

Having eaten enough, Chu Chen got up and left with Du Wende.

The others were left behind, looking respectful.

...

Returning to his luxurious residence, Chu Chen, feeling full, headed out for a walk along the Bund.

The Bund at night was beautifully lit, providing a stunning view with many tourists around and some locals, like Chu Chen, taking a walk.

After walking for a while, Chu Chen found a nice spot with a good view to take a little break.

"Oh?"

Nearby, a lavishly dressed woman in her forties noticed Chu Chen’s side profile and immediately stopped.

So handsome!

Just by his side profile, the woman was instantly captivated.

His looks, his aura, incomparable.

Much more handsome than the boy toy beside her.

"Get lost, and don’t let me see you again."

Having a new target, the woman ruthlessly abandoned the boy toy beside her.

"Huh?"

"Sister Li, please don’t."

The boy toy, with deep dark circles, weak legs, and a sore back, began to act coyly.

"Scram."

Tired of him, the woman sharply rebuked.

Startled by the woman, the boy toy, looking innocent, turned and left.

Knowing the terrifying status of this woman, he understood that if she wanted to deal with him, he could disappear without a trace by tomorrow.

Nonetheless, he was unwilling to just let it go, wanting to see why Sister Li abandoned him, so he quietly watched from a distance.

After discarding the boy toy, Sister Li walked over to Chu Chen.

"Hey, are you alone?"

Sister Li smiled, as if Chu Chen was already hers.

Though used to being hit on by women due to his remarkable looks and aura, it was the first time Chu Chen had been called "little brother."

Chu Chen turned to look and coincidentally saw Sister Li, who resembled a tank.

Chu Chen didn’t say anything, and Sister Li spoke again:

"Little brother, don’t you want to stop striving?"

"I need a lifestyle assistant."

Boasting of her enormous wealth as she caressed her jewelry worth millions, the rich woman flirted with Chu Chen.

"No, thank you."

Chu Chen quickly refused, thinking he couldn’t afford the trouble of someone so formidable.

"I rely on my own hands and hard work. I don’t need that."

Chu Chen replied earnestly.

(Depending on his effort? The system rolled its eyes at Chu Chen)

(Ha, men)

With that, Chu Chen was ready to leave. Seeing this, the rich woman hurriedly spoke:

"I can give you fifty thousand a month, and after a full year, a million-dollar Porsche. How about that?"

Chu Chen still shook his head.

At this moment, the woman suddenly remembered something, so she pulled out a business card from her purse and forcibly handed it to Chu Chen.

Then, the rich woman proudly watched Chu Chen.

It seemed to say, now that you know my identity, you surely won’t refuse.
