Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Zhou Pingjiang was in disbelief.
âThe big shot is actually Su Chen? How is this possible? Didnât he just come from a village?â
Zhou Pingjiang was very confused.
Meanwhile, Zhou Rongchang was all smiles. âSu Chen is truly extraordinary. He actually got to know the Qin family as soon as he arrived in Bin Cheng!â
Zhou Wanqiu also couldnât believe what she was seeing. âImpossible. It must be a mistake.â
Zhou Rongchang looked at their reactions and smiled proudly.
At this moment, on the stageâ¦
Su Chen smiled stiffly as he stood beside Qin Yaoyao. Everyoneâs attention was on him.
He was confused as well, and he felt awkward to be standing here.
Was this the surprise Qin Wentian mentioned earlier?
Well, it was a shock!
Su Chen did not like being in the limelight, but now he had become the focus of everyoneâs attention.
Everyone was asking about Su Chenâs background.
There were all sorts of speculations.
Qin Yaoyao smiled and was about to continue introducing Su Chen.
âThereâs no need to introduce me,â Su Chen said in a low voice. âI donât like these things! â
Qin Yaoyao was taken aback and thought to herself, âIt seems I might have upset him with this surprise.â
Qin Yaoyao reacted quickly and said, âNow, letâs let Mr. Su rest!â
Su Chen strode down.
The guests were stunned.
What was going on?
âDidnât you say to introduce this big shot? Why did you let him go?â
âWho knows! Qin Yaoyao is known as Demoness Qin. Perhaps sheâs deliberately teasing that young man!â
âHaha! Thatâs possible! I think that kid looks like a country bumpkin. He seemed quite awkward up there. He probably didnât expect Ms. Qin Yaoyao to play such a joke on him!â
The guests below the stage felt that this was a prank, and they immediately laughed along.
In the crowd, the Zhou family members looked at each other.
Zhou Wanqiu pursed her lips and said, âI told you! How could Su Chen become the Qin familyâs important guest? Qin Yaoyao mustâve been teasing him!â
Zhou Rongchang was a little angry. âQin Yaoyao is too much!â
âDad!â Zhou Pingjiang quickly tried to comfort him. âWeâre at the Qin familyâs cocktail party now. If people hear you say that, they might misunderstand.â
âPerhaps Qin Yaoyao was just joking!â
Zhou Rongchangâs anger quelled.
At this momentâ¦
On the stage, Qin Yaoyao was still smiling, but she felt a little rueful.
She had invited Su Chen to the stage without asking him first.
Qin Yaoyao said a few more words, then left the stage as well.
She wanted to apologize to Su Chen.
After Su Chen left the stage, he went back to Chen Zhongyi and Sun Zhongjing.
âMr. Su, did you treat Ms. Qin Yaoyaoâs illness?â Chen Zhongyi asked curiously.
Su Chen nodded.
Immediately, Chen Zhongyiâs impression of Su Chen improved even more.
He was Qin Wentianâs good friend, so he knew what Qin Wentian went through to cure his daughterâs illness. Even Sun Zhongjing, a famous doctor in Bin Cheng, couldnât cure her.
In the end, Su Chen solved it.
No wonder the Qin family valued Su Chen so much.
âMr. Su, you donât seem to like being in the limelight,â Chen Zhongyi said.
Su Chen shook his head. âIt means nothing!â
Chen Zhongyi was even more surprised. Young people like Su Chen were rarely like this.
However, on second thought, he remembered that Su Chen had not claimed the credit for destroying the Black Dragon Gang. Fame really meant nothing to him.
âElder Sun, can I trouble you with something?â Su Chen asked Sun Zhongjing.
âAnything!â Sun Zhongjing smiled.
âIf anyone asks about Ms. Qinâs illness in the future, please tell Mr. Qin to say that you cured her!â Su Chen said.
âYouâre giving me the credit for nothing. Of course, I have no objections!â Sun Zhongjing was a little surprised.
Su Chen nodded gratefully.
Although his medical skills were amazing, it wasnât all he cared about.
In addition, Su Chen was afraid of attracting trouble.
He had encountered an illness that was difficult to treat, so he provided his services.
However, if others found out, many would seek his treatment. Heâd be treating all kinds of major and minor illnesses. That would be extremely annoying.
It might even delay his cultivation.
Soon afterâ¦
Qin Yaoyao found Su Chen.
She went forward and hugged Su Chenâs arm to apologize. âSavior, Iâm sorry! I had no idea you didnât like the limelight!â
As he watched Qin Yaoyao acting coquettishly, Su Chen said calmly, âIâm fine!â
âAre you angry with me? Why donât you punish me by kissing me?â Qin Yaoyao pouted.
Su Chen almost spat out his tea.
Beside him, Chen Zhongyi and Sun Zhongjing quickly spoke up.
âUm, I have to use the toilet. Iâm off!â
âNow that you mention it, my bladder is about to explode! Letâs go, letâs go!â
The two of them slipped away.
Su Chen looked helpless.
Qin Yaoyao was too powerful. She made those two men run away with their tails between their legs.
However, Qin Yaoyao acted as if she did not see it and puffed out her chest. âIf that doesnât work, you can touch me again. Touch me twice!â
Su Chen was terrified. He quickly said, âIâm not angry. I just donât like to be in the limelight!â
Qin Yaoyao smiled happily.
âIâm glad youâre not angry! Hehe!â
At this momentâ¦
Qin Wentian walked over and asked, âMr. Su, whatâs your relationship with the Zhou family?â
âOld Master Zhou Rongchang is my grandfatherâs old friend,â Su Chen replied. âNow, I live in the Zhou familyâs villa and work at their company!â
Qin Wentianâs eyes lit up. âI saw that Zhou Catering Group is applying for the bid for Tianhao Groupâs new cafeteria. Iâll give it to them. What do you think about that?â
âWould you?â Su Chen asked.
Qin Yaoyao smiled. âOf course. This factory is under my familyâs company. My fatherâs influence is highly effective!â
âOf course, my words are even more powerful than my dadâs!â
âJust say so, and itâs done! So, you have the final say. Hehe!â
The meaning was very clear.
This was especially so when Qin Wentian was standing at the side. Su Chen felt somewhat awkward.
âWhatever Yaoyao wants is also what I want.â Qin Wentian smiled.
Su Chen was stunned.
How unexpected! The Zhou family and He family were both competing for the Tianhao Group cafeteria bid, but the decision was now in his hands.
âThen, Iâll thank you on behalf of Old Master Zhou, Mr. Qin!â Su Chen said, âHowever, please donât say that itâs because of me.â
Qin Wentian nodded.
He thought that Su Chen might say that.
He didnât like to be in the limelight. He was not the typical young man.
Qin Wentian knew that he had done the right thing.
He would do Su Chen a favor.
At the party, Zhou Wanqiu was still anxious. She wanted to chat with the Qin family.
She still did not know that the Tianhao Group project she had been longing for already belonged to the Zhou family thanks to Su Chen.
At this moment, Zhou Pingjiang happened to see Wu Yiqi.
He quickly brought Zhou Wanqiu and Zhou Rongchang to thank Wu Yiqi.
âWu Yiqi, thank you so much! Thanks to the invitations you procured, we were able to make it to this cocktail party today!â Zhou Pingjiang picked up a glass of wine and raised it respectfully.
Although Wu Yiqi felt guilty, he still bragged.
âYouâre too polite! I do have connections within the Qin family, of course.â
âThree invitations? Such a small matter!â
Zhou Pingjiang thanked him even more.
Beside Wu Yiqi, Wu Renxing also held his head high.
He stared fixedly at Zhou Wanqiu. He looked her up and down.
Zhou Wanqiu was so frustrated that she wanted to poke his eyes out.
However, right now, she could only suppress her anger and smile at Wu Renxing.
âZhou Pingjiang,â Wu Yiqi said. âYouâve seen the strength of my relationship with the Qin Family!â
âTo be honest, if you can get Wanqiu to marry my son, I might be able to get you Tianhao Groupâs new project!â
Hearing this, Wu Renxingâs eyes lit up and he almost drooled.
Zhou Wanqiuâs expression changed drastically.
Zhou Rongchang glared at him.
Zhou Pingjiang frowned slightly. âWu Yiqi, itâs better to see what the children want!â
âHmph!â Wu Yiqi snorted coldly.
âZhou Pingjiang, your attitude is a waste of time. I got you three invitations!â
âIf you donât agree to my proposal, Iâll help the He Corporation!â
âIf I do, the Qin familyâs Tianhao Group project will end up in the He familyâs hands!â
Wu Yiqi threatened him.
Instantly, the Zhou familyâs expressions turned sour!
At this moment, a cold voice rang out.
âWho do you think you are? Is the Qin familyâs Tianhao Group project something you have any authority over?â
