Chapter 97 - Every Dog Has Its Day (2/2)
Wei Zipin’s smile turned into a guffaw.
A smile also hang on Wan Jun’s face; however, a nagging troubling thought had made his eyes lose focus.
He wagered that Master Chen had already mustered enough influence to challenge his uncle, Sheng Ronghua’s position.
“Uncle will need to prepare and be ready sooner than later.”
So thinking, he watched as The Third Lord Wei walked to the stage where the VIP section was.
Everyone in the audience section became quiet.
The Third Lord Wei had never felt more prestige being bestowed on him before. There were at least a few dozen guests whose influence, and power surpa.s.sed him, yet he was the center of attention tonight.
“This was all thanks to Master Chen!”
With that thought in mind, he doubled down the decision to introduce his son to Master Chen.
“I know that no came this far to listen to me, and you might be asking yourself, where the heck is Master Chen. I a.s.sure you that he is already here. ”
“So without further redo, let’s welcome Master Chen!”
A wave of cheers and applause rose from the audiences.
“Master Chen is here? Where is he?”
“Old Din, haven’t you been to the tournament? Did you see him?”
“Oh? Let me see… I … I… I don’t see him.”
The audiences looked around them as they clapped their hands; they were eager to see what Master Chen looked like.
Only the top dogs sitting at the first and second row were able to keep their calm and waited patiently.
“It’s so exciting! We are going to see Master Chen soon!” Zhang Yumeng shouted. “They said he is in his twenties, and I bet that he is a stud!”
“Maybe.” Xu Rongfei blushed.
Jiang Churan was able to keep calm as she was still angry with Chen Fan for his foolish act.
Suddenly, she saw Chen Fan stand up and was about to walk to the stage.
“What’s wrong with you? Do you really believe in your own lies? They asked for Master Chen, not Chen Fan.”
“I have already told you many times. I AM Master Chen.”
Chen Fan pushed his seat back and cracked a smile at the girls before he sauntered toward the stage.
“Hey, Chen Fan, what are you doing? Come back!”
Everyone was dumbfounded by the development. Yang Chao whisper shouted at Chen Fan.
This was not at school. All the rich and powerful men and women are here, and it was perhaps one of the most important events for Yang Chao’s father, owner of the venue. He would not let Yang Chao get away with bringing in such a troublemaker.
Chen Fan pretended that he didn’t hear anyone as he walked toward the stage.
“Chen Fan!” Xu Rongfei gasped.
“Chen Fan!”
Jiang Churan shouted out at Chen Fan, trying to stop him.
She thought that her sarcastic remark had triggered Chen Fan to prove her wrong.
Chen Fan kept on walking. As he got closer to the stage, some people thought that he was a waiter.
However, most people didn’t notice him at all until he finally arrived at the stage under countless pairs of expectant eyes.
“Young Lord Wei, look!”
A teenager shouted out.
Wei Zipin tuned his head over his shoulder and was shocked by what he saw.
“What is he doing up there? He is courting death.”
Li Yichen shook his head and lamented, “What an idiot. This is not a place to crack a joke. The tyc.o.o.ns on the stage are not in the mood of joking around, if they want you dead, you won’t live till tomorrow.”
By then, the security was ready to pull Chen Fan off the stage.
Suddenly, a magnate sitting at the VIP section stood up and walked up to Chen Fan.
“Master Chen!”
Everyone was taken aback by the turn of events.
Another tyc.o.o.n stood up and greeted Chen Fan the same way.”Master Chen!”
By then, everyone in the VIP section had stood up.
“Master Chen!”
“Master Chen!”
“Master Chen!”
Wei Zipin was at a loss for words by the development.
He looked to his father, and saw his father bowed to Chen Fan respectfully and said: “Master Chen!”
Under the watch of countless audiences in disbelief, Chen Fan linked his hands behind his back and walked to his seat.
Jiang Churan was frozen in place. Despite the clamor around her, she heard nothing of it as she turned her thoughts inward.
She saw a young boy, walking pa.s.s the stage, and up, up until he reached the sky.
“Master Chen… Master Chen Fan”
Never in her life had she felt being the fool more than this time.
