Chapter 498 - Exchanged of Glances (1/2)

Lu Yin Ze who was standing by Xiong Zhi's side froze.

Linfeng?

The Zhou Linfeng he knew?

His silver-blue eyes were dumbfounded as he stared at the person being introduced by the most successful young men.

As a person who had attended the banquet today, he knew the inside stories and how important this day was for the five kings.

He was one of the people who had also guessed that perhaps, today, the sixth king would be introduced to the society.

But he never expected that it was Zhou Linfeng, that butler.

Those dark pools that looked at him earlier clearly gave him a warning.

'Get away from Xiong Zhi.'

Lu Yin Ze's eyes then blankly swept to the woman beside him.

Xiong Zhi's eyes were glistening under the dim lights.

Her eyes only stayed at Linfeng.

Lu Yin Ze fell silent.

”Zhi'er,” he called out after a while.

”Lu Yin Ze, this is not a good time to argue.” She did not even glance at him.

Lu Yin Zhe shut his mouth.

If he spoke more, Xiong Zhi might dislike him again.

A sense of bitterness and loss rose from his heart.

He inwardly wondered, what was he even striving about?

He was inside the hall filled with people and the person he loved, but his presence was fading. As if the noise and the people slowly disappeared, and he was standing alone.

In front, Linfeng had already been introduced.

Erich had also pinned a uniquely designed 'K' brooch on his left b.r.e.a.s.t pocket.

Clearly, it was a sign that now, he officially belonged to this brotherhood.

It was only a short introduction.

Erich, the speaker, spoke highly of SC Company which Linfeng owned, and went on to explain that the progenitor of ZD Comprehensive Project was Linfeng.

Linfeng finally stepped forward to talk briefly about his company and his future projects.

Many businessmen were very interested in SC Company after the success of ZD World. Now, seeing the promising young man spoke with persuasive confidence, many of the business moguls took a liking for Linfeng.

As soon the young man stepped down and mingled with the crowd, the curious personages stepped forward to get to know the sixth king of the young generation of the international business world.

Linfeng was instantly surrounded.

He took a brief glance at Xiong Zhi's direction while he eloquently conversed through different languages. He actually wanted to stay by her side the whole evening, especially after he had seen the huge pest lingering around his girlfriend.

But this party was painstakingly prepared by his 'brothers', and he had also promised to himself and to Xiong Zhi that he would make use of this dinner party to expand his network and resources.

”Mr. Zhou, congratulations on the success of ZD World and becoming an official member of the group... ”

”Mr. Zhou, I've been wanting to meet the person behind SC Company. I'm very interested with your ZD World…”

”ZD World is very successful. The project you mentioned earlier seems to have a great potential as well. The VIKINGS Group would like express our interest in boarding the ship...”

Linfeng paused when he heard that.

VIKINGS?

It was a group of companies comparable to Grand Agency in the West and could rival many business empires in Country C. It was a huge consortium mainly doing business in the areas of Germany, Switzerland, and Austria. It had also spread its business scope in Russia.

When Linfeng saw the person who just came, he was surprised.

”Mr. Finch, it's a pleasure to be your acquaintance.”

Linfeng shook hands with the man nearing his later years, but still exuded the mature charm of an accomplished man.

Who did not know Mr. Finch?
