Chapter 32 - Teleportation? (1/2)
The Banquet, the most high-end star-rated clubhouse in Yun City.
The popularity there was obvious as its courtyard was as crowded as a marketplace. The Banquet was the most vibrant jewel inlaid on Yun City, the city that never sleeps.
Almost all social events, gatherings, company tenders, and press conferences for the high society were held there. One could find any entertainment activities imaginable there once walked in.
However, not anyone could just enter there. One must possess the Banquet’s exclusive gold membership card to enter and one must spend at least seven figures to have one.
The Banquet was not under the Kai Kun International Group but it was their CEO, Yi Liangze’s personal property.
There was a private party being held in the high-tier member-exclusive booth hosted by Wen Yongxiang, the young master of Rui Cheng Group and all the guests were young men from wealthy families in Yun City.
Dozens of pretty ladies in revealing clothing strolled near the young men in the booth with smiles. The men had women in their laps as they entertained themselves happily.
The host, Wen Yongxiang patted the delicate finger circling around his chest of the woman in his lap off before dialing a number. “Hello, Liang? I can’t believe that you refused to see me despite I was at your house! Are you not taking me seriously?… Yeah, I’m at the Banquet! Are you coming?… Huh, you don’t have time? Fine!”
The crowd made faces at each other as they gossiped.
“Young Master Yi has a son, he is different from us!”
“It’s a shame that he’s a bachelor like us. Having a son doesn’t solve his practical needs!”
“Young Master Yi, the busy bee, is flying everywhere the whole time. He can’t live freely like us!”
Wen Yongxiang exhaled some cigarette smoke and scoffed angrily, “You are always making excuses! Fine, I know that you’re not coming. My family’s leather factory raw materials tender will be held here two weeks later, I’ll see if you show up!… That’s more like it! I’ll see whether you’ll show up, I’ll stop talking to you if you don’t!”
Wen Yongxiang hung up the call as Li Xuhong teased jokingly at his side, “What is it? Is Young Master Yi finally fond of you?”
Wen Yongxiang was delighted instead of getting irritated. “He promised that he’ll cut the ribbon and give a congratulatory speech in my tender two weeks later!”
It was a huge honor because Yi Liangze never simply appeared in public. Any ordinary tender would become coated with gold and radiated with his appearance, it would be even grander than hiring the navy or marksmen.
The reason Yi Liangze was willing to entertain Wen Yongxiang was not just because they were friends since young, their families were also acquaintances.
There were many young men from wealthy families there but Wen Yongxiang was the only one who Yi Liangze could be modest with.
Then, some of them turned to Fang Yu who was enjoying himself with two beautiful women and teased, “Young Master Fang, Young Master Yi is your cousin but why don’t we ever see you two hanging out?”
Fang Yu swallowed a piece of pineapple fed by one of the women and gave her a flying kiss before he replied them with a smile, “He is in cultivation! He’s stopped drinking, playing with women, getting angry, and being simple-minded. He’s in a totally different realm now. An ordinary layman like me will never get his thinking so I abandoned him!”
The crowd burst into laughter and did not take his words seriously.
Although all of them were from rich families, not every one of them was a playboy. Most of them were commercial geniuses including Wen Yongxiang who was a well-known rising star in the commercial world. Despite so, those young adults were still in a playful phase so none of them could imagine spending their days like Yi Liangze, a workaholic who worked all the time. Therefore, they could never understand him.
