Hi Fei-ge, so that’s what it was all about. Isn’t it just that nobody else likes hanging out with Luo Chen? If you’re unhappy, I’ll switch him out right away.
Xu Wenbing did not dare to go against Wang Fei’s face. At this moment, he would do whatever Wang Fei said.
After all, he was still counting on Wang Fei to introduce him to the boss of Panlong Bay.
But Wang Fei did not buy it. He gave a cold laugh.
“Hmph, and everyone here is a classmate. What kind of thing is it for you to deliberately step on Luo Chen’s face in front of everybody like that?” Wang Fei stood up directly and questioned him.
“Oh come on, Bing-ge, Bing-ge was just joking. Don’t take it seriously. Besides, isn’t it normal for everyone to tease Luo Chen a bit?”
Little Fatty stood up to smooth things over, but inside he was very puzzled. Why would Xu Wenbing stand up for Luo Chen?
Not only Little Fatty, but the others were also confused. Why would Wang Fei stand up for Luo Chen?
After all, Luo Chen did not seem to be doing very well.
“Fei-ge, that was my fault just now. I’ll apologise to Luo Chen. Is that okay?” Xu Wenbing held up his glass and smiled. He cared about Wang Fei, so he softened. As for Luo Chen?
In Xu Wenbing’s heart, he was nothing. Forget teasing Luo Chen or stepping on his face in public. Even cursing him outright would be fine.
“Yeah, Fei-ge. Although Luo Chen is our classmate, he really doesn’t count for much. Don’t let him ruin the harmony among everyone!”
“Shut your fucking mouth!” Wang Fei completely lost his temper and swore directly.
“Who the hell do you think you are to talk about Luo Chen?”
“I finally see it clearly. All of you look down on Luo Chen, right?” Wang Fei smashed the glass in his hand hard onto the floor.
This left everyone completely stunned. Why did Wang Fei care so much about Luo Chen?
“You think Luo Chen has no money? No power? So you look down on him and don’t want to associate with him?”
“Do you lot even deserve to judge him? Let me tell all of you here. Right now, you are not even fit to carry Luo Chen’s shoes, yet you still dare to look down on him?”
“Xu Wenbing, you called me here just to win the Panlong Bay project, right? Just so I could introduce you to the boss of Panlong Bay?”
“Now I’m telling you. The boss of Panlong Bay has been sitting right here all along. It’s the Luo Chen you’ve all been mocking and sneering at!”
“What? He’s the boss of Panlong Bay?” Xu Wenbing’s vision went dark and he nearly fell over.
The other classmates were also dumbfounded.
The Panlong Bay project was worth several hundred million. So Luo Chen’s net worth was already in the hundreds of millions?
Especially for Zhang Xiaoman at this moment, it felt like something had stabbed her hard in the chest again.
She had thought Luo Chen was at most the boss of her own company.
But she never expected that Luo Chen was also the boss of Panlong Bay.
Indeed, if Luo Chen was only the boss of her company, then he really could not compare to Chen Chao.
But if Luo Chen was also the boss of that huge Panlong Bay project, then what the hell was Chen Chao?
Could Chen Chao even compare to Luo Chen?
He was not even fit to carry Luo Chen’s shoes!
Suddenly, an extremely intense wave of regret surged into Zhang Xiaoman’s heart.
Why did she break up with Luo Chen?
Wasn’t it because she felt he was not good enough for her and could never give her the luxurious life she wanted?
She thought Luo Chen was just an ordinary worker with no future. But now?
Luo Chen was the real wealthy elite she could never reach.
Tears filled Zhang Xiaoman’s eyes. Just a few days ago, this man was firmly in her grasp. He was her boyfriend. He was her man.
Now, all that remained was regret.
Little Fatty also regretted it. Actually, he and Luo Chen had a pretty good relationship. But in order to curry favour with Xu Wenbing, he had stood on Xu Wenbing’s side and mocked Luo Chen.
But now?
He finally realised who the real big shot was, who the person he should be pleasing was. Unfortunately, he had messed up.
And Xu Wenbing regretted it even more.
“Luo Chen, it was all a misunderstanding. I apologise to you right here.” Xu Wenbing quickly stood up.
Although he, Xu Wenbing, had some assets in Tongzhou, compared to Luo Chen with hundreds of millions, he was nothing!
“No need.” Luo Chen flicked away the cigarette butt in his hand and stood up.
“Everyone enjoy yourselves slowly. I won’t disturb you any longer.” Luo Chen said nothing more and headed straight for the door.
This farce should end now.
At that moment, the door suddenly opened.
It was the boss of Haiyue Xiaozhu coming in.
“Master Luo, I was rude just now and only sent up two bottles of wine. Now let me send a few more bottles.”
More than a dozen bottles of Maotai were carried in by the waiters.
This generosity was truly impressive. Their meal was not even worth that much money, right?
But everyone turned their eyes to Luo Chen, because the key part was what the boss had said.
Master Luo?
Wine given to Master Luo?
“Boss, what’s this?” Xu Wenbing was stunned. Little Fatty was also stunned.
Earlier they had thought it was because of Xu Wenbing’s great status that the boss personally delivered Maotai. Now they understood it was all because of Luo Chen.
“Hehe, since you are all friends of Master Luo, don’t be polite. If you need anything, just say it. Everything is on the house! Enjoy your meal. I’ll step out first. Master Luo, see you later!” The boss was very polite and bowed to Luo Chen.
The room fell completely silent. Given to Luo Chen?
Seeing everyone’s puzzled expressions, the boss of Haiyue Xiaozhu gave a light laugh and glanced over the group.
“You didn’t really think this wine was for you, did you?”
The boss of Haiyue Xiaozhu then gave another cold laugh.
“Everyone, if not for Master Luo, all of you here would be trash in my eyes!”
“Master Luo, I speak bluntly. I hope you don’t mind.”
But Luo Chen spoke up.
“Take the wine back. The gathering is over.”
“Yes, Master Luo.” The boss of Haiyue Xiaozhu replied very respectfully, then decisively had the wine taken away again.
Throughout the whole process, his respect for Luo Chen was absolute.
As for Xu Wenbing and the others, he did not even glance at them. If not for Luo Chen, with the boss’s status, he probably would not even bother speaking to them.
“Luo-ge, I was wrong. Can you give me another chance?” Xu Wenbing’s heart was filled with regret. The boss of Panlong Bay was clearly right here, yet from the moment Luo Chen walked in, he had kept offending him.
Why had he even organised this gathering?
Wasn’t it for exactly this?
And now?
Luo Chen gave a cold laugh and said.
“Everyone, since you all look down on me, Luo, then there is nothing more for me to say. This classmate friendship ends here.”
After saying that, Luo Chen left first.
“Xu Wenbing, are you fucking brain-damaged?” Wang Fei looked at Luo Chen walking away and directly cursed.
