219 Let’s Go Now!

Chen broke the ninja’s neck by stepping on it. Then, Chen took out the body dissolving poison to destroy all the evidence. After that, he traced his way back to the kitchen.

"Where is the man? Did you manage to capture him?"

Xiaoyao frowned and asked, "I heard his scream just now. How did you let him escape from you?"

"Idiot!"

Chen pouted and said, "Police will be involved if I bring the guy back here! Tonnes of investigations will start to get carried out here! In the end, the charity dinner will get called off!"

"Alright…It makes sense…"

Xiaoyao pursed his lips and put on a sweet smile, "I heard the person screaming in agony just now! I believe that you really beat him up for us! I’m happy now!"

"Happy now? You should be thanking me now!" Chen grinned.

"Thank you?"

Xiaoyao pointed at the chaotic scene and said, "I will be thanking you if you manage to solve the food problem as well!"

"Easy job! Jing Fei! Come here please!" Chen waved a hand at Jing Fei and whispered something in his ears. Jing Fei was shocked but he did not say a word about it. He just did what Chen asked him to do.

"What did you tell him?" Xiaoyao asked curiously.

"Secret…"

Chen smiled mysteriously and said, "Don’t you worry now. I’m the chairman of this charity foundation! I will definitely not let it fall!"

"Okay…I believe that you will not fool around with it as well! But, I have to remind you that our guests are from the upper society. They all have an acquired taste towards food. They will not donate money to us if we fail to satisfy their appetites!" Xiaoyao said seriously.

"Pssst…I don’t need their money!"

Chen pursed his lips and said, "I’m going to tell you something first. I don’t care where this charity money goes to! I want you to promise me that you will donate my money to those who are in need before anyone else!"

"Errrr…You are a weirdo! Most of the people are not willing to spend their money, but you are worried that your money is not spent! Don’t worry! I have contacted three organizations beforehand! You will be the one that announces it later!"

Then, Xiaoyao continued to say seriously, "Come with me. I will hand you the speech that I prepared earlier. Memorize it, and we will start the rehearsal! I don’t want anything to go wrong during the charity dinner later!"

Then, Chen started to follow Xiaoyao around to finish the things that needed to be done for the charity dinner. Time passed by before anyone can notice it.

.....

It was six in the evening. There was only one hour left before the charity dinner begins. But, there were some guests arriving at the hotel earlier than expected. Only a hundred invitations were sent out, because people were expected to donate during dinner. People who were invited were extremely reputable in the society. There were businessmen, entertainers, and politicians.

Xiaoyao assigned a team of ladies to welcome the guests at the front entrance. Their job was to bring the guests to sign on an attendance board. On the other hand, Chen and Xiaoyao stayed inside the ballroom to welcome their guests. Xiaoyao’s gown was a perfect match with her outlook today. The suit that Chen wore made him look really handsome and dashing. Both of them were a perfect match when they stood together. Ten out of nine guests were talking about them.

"It’s six forty in the evening. Our main guests should be arriving anytime soon!" Xiaoyao took a look at her watch and her face turned serious. The arrival time actually determines the social status of a person. Those who have lower social statuses will arrive early. Those who have a higher social status will arrive later than anyone.

"What the f*ck! This shitty *ss walkway is too crowded! I wish I can use my money to broaden the walkway now!" A man with huge tummy came in from the entrance. His voice was loud. And, he lifted up his chin when he speaks. This made him looked really arrogant.

He was wearing all kind of branded stuff, and a golden necklace that as thick as humans thumbs could be seen on his neck. Five out of ten fingers had a ring on it. It was almost like he had written; I’m a rich bitch, on his forehead.

"Boss Hou!"

"Master Hou!"

The guests around him started to greet him politely. It was pretty obvious that this guy had a higher social status than most of the people here!

Xiaoyao quickly went to Chen and whispered in his ears, "This guy is Hou Weikang. All the harbors in East City are under him. Things like import, export, and warehouse are controlled by him. His business is really big!"

"Judging from his attitude and physical appearance, I guess he used to be involved in gang activity!" Chen raised his eyebrows and said.

"Right…He used to work for my dad! Now, he has his own business." Xiaoyao nodded.

"Xiaoyao! Congratulation on the success of your charity foundation! I’m really happy for you! I brought my cheques with me today! Let me donate three million to support you first!" Hou walked to Xiaoyao with a smile on his face. His arrogant aura had been toned down a lot. The smart one will know he’s doing this for her dad; Murong Tian.

He has his own business now but he still needed to pay his respect to the underground king of Green Vine City; Murong Tian. On the other hand, Chen was completely ignored by him.

"Uncle Hou, thank you so much! Actually, Mr. Chen here owns this charity foundation. Not me." Xiaoyao nodded politely and explained to Hou.

"Mr. Chen? Who is he?"

Hou looked at Chen condescendingly and said loudly on purpose, "Only a small man in this society! Does this guy really think that he can push himself to the upper society by donating thirty million to the charity? Naïve! If it wasn’t for Master Tian, none of the guests will come!" All of the guests started to pay attention to Chen after he finished talking.

"Boss Hou is right! That kid is the internet sensation! He won’t be able to stand here if it wasn’t for Murong Tian!"

"Make sense! Even this charity foundation is named after Xiaoyao! That kid had nothing to with it!"

"You are talking too much! Respect the man behind that kid! After all, he is chosen by Master Tian!"

...

Those terrible comments started to creep in Chen’s ears. Chen was widely recognized and liked by the ordinary people. People from the upper society does not even give a shit about him!

"Kid! Heard that?"

Hou stared at Chen said arrogantly, "Come back to reality! If it wasn’t for Master Tian, I wouldn’t even look you in the eyes and talk to you!"

"Monkey! You can leave now!"

A strict and fire voice came from the entrance. Everyone’s heart skipped a beat.

"Those who do not respect Mr. Chen, please leave now!"
