Chapter 185: Chapter 185 Welcoming in Person_1
Seeing their attitude, Liu Chao felt extremely awkward.
At the same time, he was also very puzzled.
He couldn’t recall offending either of them, so why did they look at him as if he were an enemy?
Could it be that Zhou Chengyu really took a fancy to Chen Yuting and, knowing I’m pursuing her, regarded me as his rival?
Wan Pengfei and Zhou Chengyu were friends; they shared the same animosity.
Damn it, if I had known this would happen, I wouldn’t have brought Chen Yuting here.
Seeing the atmosphere was off, Liang Tianhua quickly took Liu Chao away.
Once they reached a corner, Liang Tianhua asked, "Old Liu, did you offend Mr. Zhou and Mr. Wan somewhere?"
It was obvious that Zhou Chengyu and Wan Pengfei held hostility towards Liu Chao.
He needed to clarify this, in order to redefine his relationship with Liu Chao.
If Liu Chao really did offend Zhou Chengyu and Wan Pengfei, then he would have to distance himself from Liu Chao.
"I haven’t offended them," Liu Chao said gloomily. "I’ve never even met them, how could I have offended them? Could it be that Mr. Zhou took a liking to Chen Yuting and, knowing that I’m pursuing her, has started to see me as a love rival? When Mr. Zhou first arrived, his gaze lingered on Chen Yuting for a while."
He could only think of this possibility; it never crossed his mind that the two of them were hostile to him because of Shen Dong.
"Listening to you, that’s very likely," Wan Pengfei didn’t notice it before, and then he asked, "So, what do you plan to do?"
"I don’t know," Liu Chao said bitterly.
He had pursued Chen Yuting for so long, and they hadn’t even held hands yet.
To just hand her over to Zhou Chengyu was something he couldn’t accept.
"Old Liu, I just want to say one thing; there are plenty of women out there. If Mr. Zhou and Mr. Wan see you as the enemy, the outcome will definitely be miserable. You should think it over," Liang Tianhua patted Liu Chao on the shoulder and turned to leave.
...
On Chen Yuting’s side.
Chen Yuting’s mood became even more dejected.
Among the women present, they were divided into two circles.
The wealthy and beautiful women of Hai City formed one circle.
She and the internet celebrities Liu Chao had brought formed another.
As the vice-president of Huya Guild, the internet celebrities were all flocking around her.
She wanted to fit into the circle of wealthy beauties, but they hardly gave her any attention. Whenever she went to speak to them, the atmosphere was often not right.
She could only mingle with these internet celebrities.
Today’s plan to socialize with the wealthy beauties was a total failure.
A woman beside Xu Lingling said, "Lingling, Mr. Zhou looks at that Chen Yuting differently. You need to be on your guard."
Another woman chimed in, "That’s right, Lingling, Chen Yuting is so pretty, you have to be attentive, don’t let someone steal your Zhou Chengyu."
Xu Lingling glancing at Chen Yuting, who was surrounded by the internet celebrities, sneered, "Even if she’s pretty, what does it matter? Even if Zhou Chengyu takes a fancy to her, it’s only for her looks. At most, he’d just play with her. What could a woman with no background have to compete with me?"
...
On Wang Xiaocong’s side.
Wang Xiaocong hung up the phone and said to Zhou Chengyu and Wan Pengfei, "Shen Dong will soon arrive; I’ll go out to welcome him. You two have a seat for a bit."
"We’ll come with you," Zhou Chengyu and Wan Pengfei immediately got up.
"Alright," Wang Xiaocong smiled and nodded.
The three of them walked out, and after a few steps, Wang Xiaocong clapped his hands and said to everyone, "You guys carry on playing. I’ll go out to welcome a guest and will be back shortly."
Hearing this, everyone was shocked.
Who was so impressive that Liu Chao would personally go out to welcome them?
And with Zhou Chengyu and Wan Pengfei accompanying him no less.
Almost everyone attending Wang Xiaocong’s birthday party was the same age.
Was there someone of the same age in Hai City even more impressive than these three?
While surprised, people were also very curious.
"Mr. Wang, are you going to welcome our Qingyu?" Tang Yuchan inquired.
It seems only Su Qingyu, Hai City’s top beauty and rich girl, is worthy of Liu Chao’s personal welcome, right?
Could it be that Liu Chao has changed his taste and no longer likes female internet celebrities, preparing to pursue Su Qingyu?
But that doesn’t seem right either.
If Liu Chao was going to pursue Su Qingyu, he shouldn’t have brought a female internet celebrity with him today.
Now, Tang Yuchan was also a bit puzzled.
"No, it’s another friend,"
Wang Xiaocong shook his head, striding out.
With these words, everyone was shocked once again.
Many people, just like Tang Yuchan, had thought that Wang Xiaocong might be going out to greet Su Qingyu.
After all, Su Qingyu is Hai City’s top beauty and rich girl.
It would make sense for Wang Xiaocong to go out and greet her.
But Wang Xiaocong clearly answered no, as he was going to welcome another friend.
"Do you know who Mr. Wang is going to welcome?"
"This person must be really important to have Mr. Wang personally greet them."
"I’ve been to several of Mr. Wang’s birthday parties, and I’ve never seen Mr. Wang personally welcoming someone at the entrance."
"It seems Hai City isn’t as simple as we see, there are some hidden influential figures."
People were discussing and followed, going outside.
They all wanted to see firsthand who Wang Xiaocong was welcoming.
As they reached the entrance, they soon saw a Bentley King arriving.
Isn’t that Shen Dong’s car?
Liu Chao’s eyes bulged when he saw the Bentley King.
Could it be that the person Wang Xiaocong was going to greet is Shen Dong?
Impossible!
Even if Shen Dong has the Dongyan Guild and Shuidilao, it’s not possible that he would be personally welcomed by Wang Xiaocong.
It must be a coincidence that Shen Dong is here, and the person Wang Xiaocong is waiting to greet hasn’t arrived yet.
Chen Yuting naturally recognized that the car belonged to Shen Dong.
Her thoughts were the same as Liu Chao’s, feeling that Shen Dong was here by chance.
Wang Xiaocong couldn’t possibly be out to welcome Shen Dong.
Inside the Bentley, Su Qingyu saw the entrance of the club packed with people, Wang Xiaocong, Zhou Chengyu, and Wan Pengfei standing at the forefront, which made her wonder, "What are Wang Xiaocong and the others doing?"
Then, she suddenly thought of something and exclaimed, "Oh my god, Shen Dong, they are welcoming you at the entrance!"
Just now, she had overheard Shen Dong on the phone, calling Wang Xiaocong, saying he was almost there.
Now that they had arrived, they saw Wang Xiaocong and others standing at the entrance.
It was clearly a welcome for Shen Dong.
This scene completely shocked Su Qingyu.
She knew Shen Dong and Zhou Chengyu were friends, and Zhou Chengyu had even invested in Shen Dong’s Shuidilao.
She thought Shen Dong and Chen Yuyan were attending Wang Xiaocong’s birthday party because of Zhou Chengyu’s connection, and that Wang Xiaocong had invited them through it.
Now it appeared that was not the case at all.
If it was, Wang Xiaocong definitely wouldn’t have come out to welcome them.
Even if Zhou Chengyu himself came, Wang Xiaocong wouldn’t likely come out to welcome him.
It had to be that Wang Xiaocong wanted to make connections with Shen Dong, which is why he personally greeted him at the entrance.
It looked like there was more to Shen Dong that she didn’t know about.
The more she thought about it, the more mysterious Shen Dong seemed to Su Qingyu.
