After Su Chen and Lin Ruoxue parked their car in the parking lot at the hotel entrance, they found that almost all the surrounding vehicles were limited edition luxury cars. It's probably impossible to see so many, such luxurious line-ups even at a luxury car expo.
The individuals stepping out of the cars were all dressed to the nines in suits and shiny leather shoes, impeccably grood—a clear sign that they belonged to the upper echelons of society, carrying a certain air of authority.
Many recognized the renowned Lin Ruoxue and greeted her as they saw her, to which Lin Ruoxue also nodded and acknowledged in return.
Upon seeing Su Chen by her side, these people gave him a slightly curious glance but didn't pay too much attention.
Though Su Chen made quite the stir at the previous Belle Group and Yun Corporation's celebration banquet and the charity dinner hosted by the Yun family, only a small portion of the businessn were present at those two events.

To most people, Su Chen was still a stranger, at most soone whose deeds they had heard of, but they knew nothing at all about the man himself.
Su Chen paid these people's interest no mind. Since Lin Ruoxue had repeatedly asked him to behave himself, he intended to just eat and drink today.
After exchanging greetings with the businessn, Lin Ruoxue tucked her arm into Su Chen's and walked towards the brilliantly lit Tianding Grand Hotel ahead.
Su Chen couldn't help but chuckle at the na of the hotel. "Tianding," does it an to use heaven as a cauldron? Quite an imposing na!
Of course, the hotel itself imparted a similarly opulent impression. Although not a star-rated hotel, everyone in Jiangnan knew it was the most special hotel in the region.
Because the hotel was jointly owned by the Four Great Families, its primary function was to serve as a venue for Jiangnan business association events, and its regular operation was more of a hobby.
The Four Great Families didn't take the hotel's revenue seriously either; almost all of it was used for the daily expenses of the Jiangnan business association.
And this hotel might be the only joint venture that the Four Great Families were involved in.
Although people often spoke of the "Four Great Families" as though they were a unified entity, the truth was that the intersections among the families were quite limited.
Perhaps this was also a kind of tacit understanding among them!
The so-called Jiangnan business association naturally had the Four Great Families at its head. The chairman was a Family Head from one of the Four Great Families serving in rotation. The current chairman was Wu Jinjun, the Family Head of the Wu Family, and the father of Wu Yuanpin.
After glancing at the dazzling sign of the Tianding Grand Hotel and smacking his lips, Su Chen headed inside with Lin Ruoxue.
Upon entering, they found that quite a few people had already arrived, chatting and laughing in groups.
As soon as they saw Lin Ruoxue co in, they all ca over to greet her. After all, she held the title of Jiangnan's number one beauty!
Of course, for these businessn, that was not the main reason for their attention. The primary reason was that Belle Group was developing at an incredibly rapid pace!
In several industries with vast potential for future growth, they had made arrangents and even achieved so breakthroughs. The prospects for future developnt were limitless!
Lin Ruoxue maintained her professional smile in dealing with these people, being well-versed in handling such occasions.
Like those outside, these people were also rely curious about Su Chen, the young man by Lin Ruoxue's side, and likewise paid him no heed.
And a few who had seen Su Chen at the previous two events didn't engage in conversation with him either.
A joke, this guy was the fierce one who dared to lay hands on young masters like Liu and Lu. For their own safety, it was best to stay away from this fellow.
In case he went berserk and thrashed them, where would they go to cry...
After so perfunctory greetings, a few people imdiately invited Lin Ruoxue to discuss potential collaborations or other matters, and she nodded in agreent.
"Wife, I'll go grab sothing to eat first," Su Chen said.
Su Chen whispered, knowing that in such an occasion, Lin Ruoxue certainly couldn't be as leisurely as he was.
"Okay."
Lin Ruoxue nodded, but before leaving, she didn't forget to warn Su Chen,
"Don't you dare cause any trouble."
"Relax, you have nothing to worry about."
Su Chen imdiately promised, thinking to himself, do I really make you that uneasy?
As with other networking banquets, the hotel's hall was completely set up as a self-service area to facilitate interaction among guests.
If one felt hungry, they could casually eat sothing, but the rchants attending the banquet didn't have the ti to enjoy the delicacies.
Their primary purpose for coming was to negotiate cooperation or to seek business opportunities, so after every banquet, a large amount of food was wasted.
However, in Jiangnan, the most comrcially developed region in the country, no one cared about this waste.
Su Chen wandered around and stopped in front of a stand filled with seafood, took a plate, and filled it to the brim, leisurely beginning to eat.
At a nearby stand, he also grabbed a glass of red wine, alternating between a few bites of seafood and a sip of wine, thoroughly enjoying himself.
He glanced casually and saw Lin Ruoxue had already started chatting with a few businessn not far away, sotis even revealing a smile. He had no idea what they were talking about and frankly, Su Chen had no interest in such matters.
Although the networking dinner was said to begin at half-past seven, it actually started as soon as people arrived; seven-thirty was just a nominal ti.
If you arrived too late, others would think you lacked a sense of ti. This could make them reconsider when deciding to collaborate with you.
But none of this mattered to Su Chen; he had only one goal in mind, and that was to eat and drink as he pleased.
As he was enjoying his al, a sound of high heels clacking on the floor "dong dong dong" rang out next to him, accompanied by a wafting faint fragrance.
"Yo, Su Chen, you sure do look relaxed!"
A teasing, charming voice spoke out at that mont.
Su Chen turned his head and saw it was Ye i, with a glass of red wine, gracefully walking toward him.
"It's you, huh? What brings you here?"
Seeing it was her, Su Chen also showed a smile and said.
"That's a strange thing to ask. You still see as the red rose from before, huh? I'm a bona fide businesswoman now,"
Ye i said with no small asure of pride, tilting her chin upward.
Speaking of this, Ye i couldn't help but marvel at the unpredictability of life; in the past, she desperately sought cooperation with these businessn, but they couldn't distance themselves fast enough from her.
But ever since they found out about her successful collaboration with Ali Corporation, especially under such favorable conditions, those sa businesses were now desperate to work with her.
Ye i knew that the biggest contributor to this turnaround was the man before her, whom she had never quite been able to figure out...
