Chapter 349: Chapter 349: Without Me, The Foundation Laying Ceremony Will Not Start
Chu Chen nodded and drove in openly.
Behind him, the cold smile on Wei Angjie’s face froze completely; he was dumbfounded.
What just happened?
He got in without a pass card?!!
Wei Angjie’s mind went blank; he was utterly confused.
Especially remembering what he just said—Thomson’s luxury residence was one of Shanghai’s most top-notch, with incredibly strict security systems.
Without a pass card, nobody, not even a super big shot, could possibly get in.
Wei Angjie was in disbelief.
He got in, this driver without a pass card just brought him in?
Earlier, he had pleaded with the security guard, who refused him outright.
But when it came to this driver, he just showed his face, and the security guard’s attitude changed immediately, skipping over the pass card process, and they got in.
Why was that?
You would have to be a fool to think it was because the driver looked handsome that they got in.
And it couldn’t possibly be because the security guard knew Chu Chen and let him in because of that.
Letting an acquaintance in could cause problems; the security guard couldn’t take that responsibility.
The only plausible explanation was that Chu Chen was a big shot, whose status was terrifying enough to ignore the pass card and many of Thomson’s rules.
The more he thought about it, the more frightened Wei Angjie became.
He actually looked down on this big shot just now?!
Meanwhile, respectfully watching Chu Chen enter, the security guard also breathed a sigh of relief.
"What are you doing?"
"You let someone in without showing a pass card?"
At this moment, the security chief came out from the monitoring room to question the on-duty guard.
Due to limited surveillance, the security chief hadn’t clearly seen the car owner’s appearance.
"That’s Mr. Chu," the guard explained.
"Mr. Chu?"
The security chief was startled, then patted the guard’s shoulder, earnestly saying,
"You did the right thing."
This was Mr. Chu, the fierce person who had bought a whole building.
Previously, he had been warned by his superior never to obstruct Mr. Chu no matter what he did.
Not to mention getting in without a pass card, even if Mr. Chu dismantled the gates, they wouldn’t stop him; they might even help Mr. Chu.
"We’ve arrived."
Chu Chen handed the car key back to Wei Angjie.
Under Wei Angjie’s fearful gaze, Chu Chen left.
It was almost two in the afternoon; Chu Chen hesitated whether to continue taking orders.
At three in the afternoon, he needed to attend a "foundation ceremony."
Previously, Hilton Group planned to build a new hotel in Shanghai, and with Chu Chen’s help, the Du Property successfully secured the contract.
After numerous plans, today was the foundation ceremony for the new hotel.
Once the ceremony ended, construction would begin.
As Hilton Group’s vice president, Chu Chen was to attend the foundation ceremony on behalf of the group.
While pondering, a new order appeared, very close to his current location.
Seeing that it wasn’t too late, Chu Chen decided to check the location of this new order first.
When Chu Chen arrived, a Bentley Mulsanne, valued at over four million yuan, was parked there.
A person who looked like a driver saw Chu Chen and hurriedly approached.
"You finally arrived, buddy."
"My stomach’s not feeling great, could you please take my boss over?"
It turned out this Bentley’s driver was unwell, so they called for a driver substitute.
Led by the driver, the two met the Bentley owner waiting in the hall, a portly middle-aged boss.
"Boss Zhu, this is the driver I found for you."
The driver said to the boss.
"Can you drive a Bentley?"
The boss raised an eyebrow, disdainfully asking Chu Chen.
"Yes."
Chu Chen nodded.
"I’ve driven Bentleys, Rolls-Royces, Bugattis, and Koenigseggs."
Hearing this, the boss’s expression slightly changed, thinking this young man really loved to brag.
"Fine, you’ll do."
After glancing at the time, realizing it was not too early, the boss gave the location to Chu Chen.
Hearing the place, Chu Chen was a bit surprised. The boss was also attending that foundation ceremony?
"Alright."
Coincidentally, on the way, Chu Chen accepted the keys and agreed.
"Speed it up."
On the road, the boss urged Chu Chen.
"Okay."
Chu Chen accelerated but didn’t go too fast.
After all, this was just a Bentley, not some multi-million-dollar supercar; it couldn’t go that fast. Safety was the priority.
A few minutes later, Boss Zhu, growing impatient, urged,
"Can you go any faster? I need to attend the foundation ceremony!"
Because he’d started late due to some matters, he wanted to save time on the road.
"Don’t worry, without me, the foundation ceremony can’t begin."
Chu Chen, to ease the boss’s anxiety, spoke the truth.
As the most important figure in the foundation ceremony, without Chu Chen, it definitely couldn’t start.
Hmm?
Boss Zhu, in the back seat, was utterly confused.
What was this driver saying?
Without you, the foundation ceremony can’t begin?
Who do you think you are, the president of Du Property Group or Hilton’s president?
Previously, hearing what cars Chu Chen claimed to have driven, Zhu had a terrible impression of him.
Now he was boasting like he could touch the sky.
Without you, the ceremony can’t begin. Who do you even think you are?
"Young man, you need to be honest."
"Only boasting will result in a future where you accomplish nothing, becoming useless."
Zhu warned Chu Chen.
For a moment, Chu Chen felt helpless.
Why doesn’t anyone believe him when he tells the truth?
A dozen minutes later, Chu Chen arrived at the foundation ceremony site.
It was around 2:40 pm; the ceremony wouldn’t start for another twenty minutes.
"Don’t let me see you again."
Taking the car keys, Zhu gave Chu Chen a look of disdain.
With that, Zhu strutted inside.
"That might be difficult?"
Chu Chen shrugged and mumbled.
With that, Chu Chen also walked into the foundation ceremony, heading to the Hilton area.
"Mr. Chu."
"Mr. Chu, you’ve arrived."
Seeing Chu Chen arrive, several senior Hilton personnel stood and respectfully addressed him.
"Hello, everyone."
Chu Chen nodded. After sitting for a short while, he left to check out the foundation ceremony site.
Meanwhile, Zhu moved towards his small circle,
comprising individuals of similar status, owners of medium-sized enterprises in Shanghai, all invited.
Technically speaking, these enterprise owners were riding on Du Property Group’s coattails, barely qualifying as small subordinates to Du Property.
"Old Zhu, you’re late."
"What’s going on, have you gotten a young bride and now you’re weak?"
"At your age, health is everything."
Seeing Zhu, the other bosses teased.
Hearing this, Zhu’s face reddened as he offered the excuse,
"What are you talking about? I was late because I encountered a crazy driver."
