"Chen, are you joking? Do you think soone like can attract a woman?" Zhao Zhengxiong laughed self-deprecatingly. "Yes, that’s right, we do have our monts of glory, always having a group following us wherever we go, with others nodding and bowing to us for fear of offending us. But, while we enjoy things others can’t have, we also can’t enjoy what ordinary people have. To us, family is both a longing and a vulnerability."
"At your level, do you still fear soone would use your family against you?" Ling Chen shook his head with a smile, "I believe no one in East Sea City would dare to do that."
"Not now, but what about the future?" Zhao Zhengxiong said helplessly, "Chen, we’ve done a lot of bad things, and made many enemies, there’s karma for this, it just hasn’t caught up with us yet. I don’t want my family to bear unnecessary risks because of . Moreover, the world changes every day, and we can’t guarantee we’ll be here laughing and chatting ten years from now."
Hearing this, Ling Chen imdiately understood Zhao Zhengxiong’s concern. No one knows what will happen tomorrow; Zhao Zhengxiong can’t guarantee, and neither can he. While the future holds endless beauty, it also harbors countless dangers.
"What I need to do now is enjoy and cherish every day." Zhao Zhengxiong suddenly laughed, "I heard that Jiang Hao kid seems to have found a girlfriend. Last ti, when we dined together, he brought her to et , said they were just friends, but I could tell their relationship was not ordinary."
"Is that so?" Ling Chen beca interested, "That kid never ntioned it to . Hey! What does that woman do?"
"Seems she’s a teacher, a recent college graduate. She looks decent, and is quite gentle. Jiang Hao is quite lucky; I hope the two of them make it."
"Okay, next ti there’s a chance, I’ll definitely want to et her."
Just as they spoke, there was a ’knock knock knock’ on the door outside.
"Co in."
The door opened, and a young man in a suit walked in to report, "Xiong, there’s trouble outside."
"Trouble?" Zhao Zhengxiong chuckled lightly, "This is truly rare. No one ever dares to make trouble in my place. Who are these people?"
"I don’t recognize them, all unfamiliar faces, plus a few foreigners."
"No wonder, no one from East Sea City should dare make trouble here. Chen, interested in checking it out with ?"
"I’m just as idle, let’s go and have a look."
With that, Ling Chen followed Zhao Zhengxiong out of the office and straight to the nightclub’s first-floor hall’s private room.
Before they even entered the room, they could hear ’bang bang’ sounds from inside, clearly things were being smashed. At the door, several n in suits stood guard, with no one going in.
"Chen, Xiong."
Seeing Ling Chen and Zhao Zhengxiong approaching, the n in suits quickly stepped aside.
Ling Chen glanced into the room, only to see three foreign friends and several Huaxia people fighting, the ground littered with debris from smashed bottles, and even a few chairs were broken.
However, what surprised Ling Chen was that besides the fighting n, there were two won in the room, one of them also a foreigner, blonde and blue-eyed, and very beautiful.
But it was the other woman who caught Ling Chen’s attention.
Leng Feifei!
What is she doing here? Ling Chen was taken aback and turned to say sothing to Zhao Zhengxiong. The latter imdiately made a gesture, and the n in suits pounced into the room like wolves and tigers, quickly separating the fighting individuals.
At this ti, Leng Feifei also noticed Ling Chen’s presence, got up quickly and walked over, "Ling Chen, you’re here too?"
"This nightclub belongs to a friend of mine, so I ca over to take a look. I didn’t expect to run into this." Ling Chen said, pointing at the foreign friends, "Are those people your friends?"
Leng Feifei nodded, "Just a misunderstanding, we’ll handle it ourselves. Please tell your friend we’re very sorry, and we’ll compensate for the damages at cost."
"That’s not a problem, as long as no one was hurt."
"Feifei, is this your friend?" The blonde-haired, blue-eyed foreign beauty stepped beside Leng Feifei, looked Ling Chen up and down, and asked in not-so-fluent Chinese.
"Sofia, let introduce you. This is Ling Chen, a very good friend of mine. I owe a lot of my success to his help."
"So this is Mr. Ling, nice to et you." Sofia was very polite.
"Hello."
"Feifei, let’s go, don’t stay with these white dogs, or you’ll catch their stench." As he spoke, a handso, tall young man strode over with an angry face. Due to the earlier fight, his casual suit was soaked in alcohol, and even his tie had been pulled off.
White dogs? Ling Chen was slightly startled, his gaze swept over the faces of the foreign friends, and he understood the young man’s aning. These were all Caucasians, no wonder the young man called them white dogs.
Leng Feifei frowned slightly, dissatisfied, "Shao An, watch your language, they’re all my friends, don’t insult them."
"Feifei, look what I’ve beco? If it weren’t for these bastards, would I be like this?" The young man nad Shao An said with anger, "I’ve never suffered such a loss in my life. Just wait, I’ll deal with them sooner or later."
"Chen." Taking advantage of the situation, Zhao Zhengxiong quietly ca to Ling Chen’s side and whispered, "I know this Shao An, he’s the eldest son of the Shao Group, very wealthy, a regular here."
"Shao Group?" Ling Chen thought for a mont and shook his head, "Never heard of it."
Zhao Zhengxiong subtly flattered, "Chen, a person like you, it’s no wonder you haven’t heard of a small company like that. The Shao Group’s headquarters are in Beijing, among the top 100 enterprises in the country. Hongyu Group is currently ranked first dostically, and the Shao Group is at ninety-eighth."
With this comparison, Ling Chen imdiately recognized the weight of the Shao Group.
A small company, not worth ntioning!
"Mr. Zhao." At this mont, Shao An noticed Zhao Zhengxiong outside the private room and his face lit up with joy. He imdiately beckoned Zhao Zhengxiong over with a wave.
Zhao Zhengxiong hesitated for a mont, his eyes falling on Ling Chen. Since Ling Chen was here, he naturally had to follow his lead. Seeing the latter nod slightly, he walked over to Shao An with a full-faced smile and asked, "President Shao, what can I do for you?"
