C225 A Face-saving 800 Million? (1/2)
At this point, the atmosphere in the hall had already become oppressive.
As the saying goes, a wall falling is pushed by everyone. Although the matter had yet to reach such a stage, it had already reached such a state …
This was clearly Su Bai's Heavenly Palace's Inspector General's dinner. If Jinling City and the other big shots were to join hands and reject him, then his identity as an Inspector would be nothing but a name.
After all, even the Heavenly Palace still needed the support of these big shots in the political and commercial circles.
Chen Xiuqi's face was now expressionless, but those who knew him well knew that he was truly angry.
Although Su Bai's words from before were inappropriate, in the end, he was still here, and these people did not give him any face at all.
Especially this Shen Daoru. Although the status of the old man from the Jin'ling Merchant Guild and the mysterious arcane master from the provincial hall wasn't low, his power and influence was still lower than Shen Daoru's by more than a level.
The grudge between Zheng Yucheng and himself was deep, so naturally, he wouldn't miss this opportunity to target Su Bai. But this Shen Daoru didn't hear that he had a huge grudge with Su Bai, yet he chose to add fuel to the fire at this kind of occasion.
The reality proved that Shen Daoru's influence was really great. Everyone present, including Duan Tianlu, Xiang Dong and the others, could be ranked in the top five in Jinling City, or even in Jiangnan Province.
Without a doubt, he started from scratch and in just ten short years, he managed to produce Rudao Group with a market value of nearly a hundred billion. His fame is simply too great, and is not one bit inferior to those of the established aristocratic families.
When he spoke, the faces of everyone below the arena changed. While they were discussing in low voices, they had already made their decision — — This Jiangzhou kid had been too arrogant recently. He really should be suppressed!
But, before they could move, Su Bai, who was always looking at them coldly, suddenly said this to Shen Daoru.
Stay?
Could it be that Su Bai had given in?
Everyone's gaze fell on Su Bai and Shen Daoru, their faces filled with shock and suspicion.
Chen Xiuqi's brows twitched, and did not say a word. He understood that Su Bai was a person who would not take advantage of the situation, and would only rely on these people to beat him down.
Shen Daoru's expression did not change at all. He raised his head, looked at Su Bai, and said: ”What's wrong, Inspector Su, is there anything else you need?”
Su Bai smiled faintly and said: ”If there's nothing else, can't you just talk to President Shen?”
”Mr. Su just said that he has things to do later, is there a need to go?”
”We can push forward the rest of the matters for now...” Su Bai laughed as he walked in front of Shen Daoru, and said indifferently: ”On the other hand, Mister Shen and I's private matters have already been delayed for a long time, so today we should have an end to it!”
Although there were no changes on Shen Daoru's face, his heart suddenly sank.
He frowned, took a deep breath and looked straight at Su Bai, ”What does Mr. Su mean by this? I don't remember there was any private matter between us. ”
”Hehe, President Shen is really forgetful to me.” Su Bai laughed blandly, and said: ”President Shen still owes me 500 million! Adding that to the three hundred and thirty-five million that noble young master lost to me in the underground boxing competition, that would make a total of eighty-three million and five hundred thousand! ”
”I had already told Young Master Shen that I would pay within three days, but more than a dozen days had passed, and I still did not see a single cent. I presume that Young Master Shen and President Shen think that I, Su Bai, was young and young, and did not take my words to heart?”
Ignoring Shen Daoru's increasingly ugly expression, Su Bai continued: ”Today we have to make use of this opportunity to thoroughly settle this matter in front of Elder Chen and all these seniors. What does President Shen think?”
When he said these words, Shen Daoru's breathing became even more hurried, and his face ashened.
Everyone in the hall who were ready to move, looked at the two of them in shock. Shen Daoru, he actually owed Su Bai money?
And he still owes 800 million?
