Kang Cheng imdiately nodded, smiling, "Of course, I know him. Before you ca over, I already greeted him. Brother Tao is a shareholder and director of Hengsen Fund, and we have business dealings with his company."
Chen Feng nodded and said, "Hmm, I suppose we're friends."
The smile on Kang Cheng's face beca even brighter, and he said with a grin, "It's really impressive that you can be friends with Brother Tao. I'm delighted to et you; let's add each other on WeChat."
Chen Feng, however, had no intention of adding him as a friend and replied coldly, "I'm not familiar with you, don't randomly call brother. There's no need to add friends."
Kang Cheng didn't seem embarrassed at all and kept his cheerful smile, saying, "Xinyan calls you brother, and I am friends with Xinyan, so calling you brother isn't unusual. Besides, I really admire you, such an awe-inspiring person; I would like to formally get to know you.
I currently work at MDS Company. Our company is an international financial institution, mainly dealing with insurance business and financial services, as well as asset managent, enabling you to legally avoid tax, or open anonymous and confidential accounts at foreign banks and financial institutions. You never know when you might need , and I guarantee to be there whenever you call."
It must be said, this person's thick skin and verbal prowess were remarkable; Chen Feng didn't say much to him but simply picked up his phone, opened his WeChat contact, and let him scan it.
Kang Cheng, delighted, quickly added Chen Feng as a friend, and Chen Feng approved the request, but of course, he blocked him from viewing his Monts, even though there wasn't much to see.
After adding Chen Feng on WeChat, Kang Cheng didn't bother him further but simply said, "Brother, you can contact anyti."
Then, he returned to his original seat.
Witnessing the scene, Huang Xiaolu felt deeply embarrassed, even though she knew Chen Feng was likely a hidden big shot. Tonight, she had boasted about her cousin Kang Cheng before eting Jin Xinyan, praising him to no end—exemplary family background, graduate of a prestigious world-renowned university, excellent in both appearance and character, limitless future, and more.
She also incidentally disparaged Chen Feng several tis, calling him a flirt, saying he's "old," and ntioning he's not a local to Xiu Zhou, among other things.
Yet now, Kang Cheng was actively seeking favor with Chen Feng, bowing and scraping before him, which certainly embarrassed her, as the one who made the introductions.
In the future, she surely wouldn't be able to hold her head high in front of Jin Xinyan.
Similarly, Jin Xinyan felt quite speechless at the mont. Though she hadn't felt much affection for Kang Cheng, she did feel he was quite exceptional—after all, an Oxford graduate, working at a high-end international multinational company, plus good family background, tall and handso, silver-tongued, a little flirtatious, but how many n with such qualities aren't?
In total, soone like Kang Cheng would undoubtedly achieve success in the future.
Moreover, according to Huang Xiaolu's introduction, Kang Cheng's family runs a printing and packaging business, owns a large factory in the suburban industrial park with annual production of several hundred million, and he's the only child in the family with three properties in Xiu Zhou, one being a mansion worth over twenty million.
Therefore, he's assured to inherit a fortune in the billions, even if he does nothing in the future.
However, compared to Chen Feng, he obviously fell short.
Chen Feng, amidst Tao Yaoyang, Tang Xinyi, and others, chatted and laughed effortlessly, while the trio showed covert respect for him.
Kang Cheng previously went over to greet them, yet was barely acknowledged. Tao Yaoyang didn't even glance at him before leaving.
The disparity was undeniably too vast.
"Xinyan, how did you get to know Brother Feng?"
Kang Cheng was now deeply curious about Chen Feng, soone who stood equal with Tao Yaoyang and commanded such high regard from Huo Jindong, and wished to learn more, hoping to forge a connection.
Even though Chen Feng was still sitting nearby, he couldn't help but ask Jin Xinyan in the local dialect of Xiu Zhou.
"How I got to know him is my private matter, so I'm not going to tell you."
Out of respect for her friend Huang Xiaolu, Jin Xinyan, though disappointed in him, couldn't outright snub him. But her words were certainly not pleasant.
Kang Cheng chuckled, "I always feel there's a story between you and Brother Feng. He is a very charming guy, with a remarkable background, and you're a beautiful woman; surely sothing happened between you two?"
He had long seen the signs between Jin Xinyan and Chen Feng even at the mall earlier, just that having only recently t, he couldn't delve deeper.
Now, however, he urgently wanted to learn more about Chen Feng through her, hence the direct questioning.
Jin Xinyan's face turned unsightly upon hearing his words.
Huang Xiaolu snapped at him, "Kang Cheng, enough. Why are you poking your nose into other people's business?"
Kang Cheng shrugged helplessly, "Alright. I won't ask anymore. But I think, Xinyan, if you put in so effort, you could win over Brother Feng; you do have so unique qualities."
Huang Xiaolu glared, "What nonsense are you spouting?"
Jin Xinyan, however, asked curiously, "What unique qualities do I have?"
Her question was sowhat a confession without admitting. Although Kang Cheng appeared not visibly surprised, he couldn't help but sigh internally; Jin Xinyan indeed had a close relationship with Chen Feng.
If it were soone else, even Jin Xinyan's husband, he would persist in trying to steal her away, as she was very much to his taste.
But facing soone like Chen Feng, who could stand on equal footing with Huo Jindong, he... dared not.
"Your qualities are actually quite obvious: you are understanding, gentle and generous, and you're a local from Xiu Zhou. None of the four won sitting next door are locals."
Jin Xinyan, upon hearing these words, was naturally dissatisfied and sneered, "Being a local from Xiu Zhou is hardly a unique quality. And what about being understanding, gentle, and generous?"
Kang Cheng laughed, "You don't understand. If Brother Feng wants to settle in Xiu Zhou, it would be best for him to pick a local woman as a partner. Isn't that a quality too? And being understanding, gentle, and generous might seem common, but how many won truly possess these two qualities? Very few! And you happen to have them. These are your innate advantages. As long as you leverage these two advantages well, you certainly have a better chance compared to the few won he has around him now."
