Chapter 1565
Nightfall.
The Four Seals Clubhouse.
The lights are off and the decorations are on.
At the main entrance, bodyguards stand in a forest of sternness.
A spectacular scene of luxury cars followed one another.
This banquet was a celebration for Chen Dong and Rothschild, and it was also the first time that Chen Dong had hosted the world’s giants and various powers that had gathered in the Southwest region after he had settled the Southwest.
More importantly, he needed this banquet to gauge the attitudes of the world’s powerful families and forces after the dramatic changes that had befallen him.
So much had happened that night a few days ago.
On the eve of dawn, he even divorced Gu Qingying straight away.
The series of changes, after initially creating waves and shocks among the world’s gentry and all the powers, then returned to calm.
Just as Chen Dong and Chen Daojun had speculated, the calm before them was perhaps just a sign of the approaching storm.
“Rothschild, arrive!”
At the main entrance, with a proclamation from the Master of Ceremonies, the scene fell abruptly silent.
The main man had arrived!
The heads of the magnificent families and the giants of power, all focused their attention in the direction of the road.
The Southwest was set, Chen Dong’s plan to swallow the world, and all the magnate family heads and powerful giants present this evening had entered the trap and spat out a mouthful of blood.
But Rothschild was the biggest beneficiary after all the forces under Chen Dong’s command!
However, all the world is bustling with profit.
The heads of powerful families and giants of power were not yet so concerned that they chose not to come to this banquet because the Southwest Region was being plotted against.
For them, Chen Dong and Rothschild were working together to promote the “Eastern Wall Street”, so they might be able to get a piece of the action.
At the other end of the spectrum.
The Rolls-Royce drove slowly down the road.
Chen Dong sat in the back, looking out of the window at the rapidly receding night scene, silent.
Long Lao drove on, glancing at the back row through the rear-view mirror every now and then.
Rather than looking at Chen Dong, he looked at Ye Linglong who was sitting beside Chen Dong.
How could Young Master …… think of bringing Ye Linglong to tonight’s banquet?
Long Lao’s heart was puzzled, he did not believe that Chen Dong would not know the meaning of tonight’s banquet, but Chen Dong still brought Ye Linglong with him.
He had just gotten divorced and then brought another woman to such a sensitive banquet tonight, wasn’t this pushing himself into the limelight?
“I want to know the reason why you brought me along!”
Ye Linglong suddenly spoke up, breaking the silence in the car.
Long Lao glanced at Ye Linglong in surprise, but pricked up his ears.
Chen Dong returned to his senses and rubbed his nose, “To use you.”
Three simple words, without the slightest emotion, could be called cold.
Elder Long was stunned.
Ye Linglong’s pretty face, however, surfaced a few moments of loss: “You said you were using me last time, and you are using me again this time?”
“You’re not leaving on your own.”
Chen Dong turned his head and locked eyes with Ye Linglong, “Since Xiao Ying and I have divorced, there must be a crowning reason to tell the world why she and I divorced? It will be easier to draw all the attention to me as much as possible, so that you Hong will protect Xiaoying and her mother and son.”
There is no fear of a thief stealing, but there is a fear of a thief thinking about it.
This saying, from ancient times to the present day, is not just a saying.
Focusing the attention of the world’s group of thieves, all on themselves, was the only way to make Gu Qingying’s life more peaceful.
“If you do this, aren’t you taking the blame of abandoning your wife and children?”
Ye Linglong said in a complicated manner.
Chen Dong laughed and shook his head dismissively, “There was once a man who carried the scolding of abandoning his wife and children for more than twenty years, if he could do it, so can I!”
“Young master ……”
Long Lao, who was driving the car, murmured with a sullen expression.
Inside the car, silence returned once again.
Ye Linglong looked uncomfortably complicated, her beautiful eyes rippled with sympathy and resignation …… In the end, it came back to calm.
She shrugged her shoulders and smiled: “Also, let it be, you want to take advantage of it, then let it be.”
The voice was soft, but it was heartbreaking to hear.
Even Elder Long could not help but give Ye Linglong an extra glance, full of sympathy.
Chen Dong, however, remained indifferent and unperturbed.
As the Rolls Royce drove up to the gates of the Four Seals Clubhouse.
Rothschild and most of the magnificent family heads and giants of power had already entered the clubhouse banquet hall.
However, at the entrance, there was still no shortage of scattered magnate family heads and power giants present.
After Chen Dong got out of the car with Elder Long and Ye Linglong, the eyes of the crowd came into focus.
Chen Dong calmly exchanged a few pleasantries with the crowd before leading Elder Long and Ye Linglong towards the clubhouse.
The few magnificent family heads and power giants who lingered behind them, however, whispered and discussed.
“Oh …… I was surprised when Chen Dong suddenly divorced a few days ago, but it turns out that he has another new love!”
“What bullSh*t young master, when the proposal of a marriage in this city are made a shock, now up, is also a wife and children abandoned B*****d thing, but not at all evasive.”
“Hahahaha …… everyone less to say two, people are not sage who can not fault, you and I have how much behind the small, not also do not dare to say ah, but the young master Chen recklessly spontaneous, just a pity that the Gu family, the end is a bit miserable.”
……
As a family head opened his mouth, several people looked at each other and all revealed awkward smiles.
And all of this, Chen Dong heard in his ears.
Even Elder Long and Ye Linglong had heard it all.
Several family heads and giants, although they had deliberately lowered their voices, with Chen Dong’s, Elder Long’s and Ye Linglong’s ears, there was enough to hear them too.
“Is this the result you want?”
Ye Linglong followed Chen Dong and raised her eyes to look at Chen Dong.
“Quite good.”
Chen Dong smiled, not annoyed.
As they approached the banquet hall, the sound of people poured out.
Chen Dong rubbed his nose, “I’ll be aggravated by you later.”
“I can be aggravated by you, but I, Ye Linglong, am not so aggravated by others yet.”
Ye Linglong said calmly.
Chen Dong and Elder Long vaguely felt that something was not right, but did not say much.
The moment the three stepped into the banquet hall.
The noise of the people suddenly quietened down.
All eyes were focused on Chen Dong and the three of them.
When they swept onto Ye Linglong, even Chen Dong and Elder Long clearly sensed the strangeness of those gazes.
“Let’s go.”
Ye Linglong suddenly took Chen Dong’s arm, a confident smile spreading across her pretty face, as if she did not even notice the countless strange gazes.
Chen Dong glanced at Ye Linglong in surprise before he took a step towards where Rothschild was.
There was silence.
Countless strange gazes watched.
This invisible sense of oppression made even Chen Dong uncomfortable.
On the contrary, Ye Linglong was always smiling and did not show the slightest disgust from the beginning to the end.
“Mr. Chen!”
Rothschild took the lead and stood up, giving Ye Linglong a complicated glance before smiling and shaking hands with Chen Dong.
In full view of all eyes.
As Chen Dong and Rothschild’s hands parted.
Ye Linglong, however, had a warm, wind-like smile on her face and took the initiative to reach out and gesture to shake hands with Rothschild.
At the same time.
She said with a smile, “Mr. Rothschild, I am Mr. Chen’s new love!”
Chapter 1566
There was silence in the large ballroom.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
Rothschild’s smile even froze, and his right hand, which had just detached itself from Chen Dong’s, froze in mid-air.
Even Chen Dong and Elder Long stared at Ye Linglong in amazement.
Ye Linglong kept a warm, breezy smile on her pretty face, oblivious to the countless strange gazes around her.
She gently shook Rothschild’s hand, parting it with a touch.
“Old love gone, new love here, I hope Mr Rothschild is not offended.”
There was no hint of winding, straightforward words that took everyone by surprise.
“Hahahaha ……”
Rothschild laughed.
The sound of laughter echoed through the banquet hall, easing some of the tense and frozen atmosphere.
“Sir has come a long way, please take your seat.”
Chen Dong changed the subject.
As several people took their seats, the atmosphere finally eased and warmed up.
Only the heads of powerful families and giants of power from all sides continued to cast surprised and odd glances at Chen Dong and Ye Linglong from time to time.
Can a junior still be so rampant when he is on top?
This was the thought on everyone’s mind.
After all, what Ye Linglong had shown just now was not at all a half-hearted gesture of a junior taking the throne.
The main table.
Rothschild smiled and joked, “As expected of the granddaughter of Hong Society’s Ye Zu Lao, a woman of greatness.”
“Sir, you’ve laughed.”
Ye Linglong hid her face and laughed lightly, raising her hands and feet without the slightest hint of formality.
Following Rothschild, she leaned towards Chen Dong: “Mr. Chen is young and talented, and he is surrounded by his best friends.”
Chen Dong’s eyes dimmed for a moment and he was about to explain with a smile.
Rothschild suddenly waved his hand, “It’s a waste of time to be young, we’ve all been there, we understand.”
Did he really understand?
Chen Dong did not continue to explain.
The banquet began.
The banquet hall was filled with laughter and people.
They were pushing and exchanging gla*ses with each other, talking about heaven and earth.
Chen Dong was at the main table and was chatting with Rothschild, but as for the “Eastern Wall Street” matter, both of them did not mention a word about it.
The mere fact that they were sitting here was enough to send a signal to the magnates and giants present!
As for the rest, that was a matter for these family heads and giants to weigh up!
During this time, Chen Dong and Rothschild also wandered around the tables, exchanging gla*ses with the masters and giants.
As the head of the family, they did not want to lose the reputation of the head of the family and be a laughing stock.
After three rounds of wine, the dishes pa*sed five tastes.
The banquet was gradually coming to an end.
There was no shortage of magnificent family heads and giants of power, drunk and full of alcohol.
“Mr. Chen, it seems that the fallout from the Southwest Settlement is far more minor than you and I had imagined.”
Rothschild shook the gla*s of red wine in his hand and twirled a cigar in the other.
“Perhaps. ……”
Chen Dong smiled gently, but swept the room with a doubtful glance.
Would the storm coming …… really be so serene?
Pop!
As soon as he thought this, there was a sudden sound of a wine bottle cracking.
A table not far away was instantly messy and noisy.
The bustling hall was also quieted for a few moments.
All eyes looked at the sound.
When Chen Dong looked up, he saw a middle-aged man with a large belly leaning back in his chair with a drunken face at a table not far away, the wine gla*s on the table in front of him had fallen over, spilling wine, and at his feet lay the broken wine bottle.
The people at the same table, all of them looking strange, were persuasive and noisy.
The staff of the Four Seals Club also hurried up to dispose of the situation.
The middle-aged man with a big belly waved his right hand and smiled nervously, saying, “What old love and new love? What a nice thing to say, isn’t he just a contemporary Chen Shimei? I heard that his wife is still carrying his seed in her belly, isn’t that just abandoning his wife and son? You’re afraid of him, but I’m not afraid of him!”
“Master Wang, you’ve had too much to drink, so be quiet!”
Someone who knew him well turned pale and hurriedly advised him.
The people around him also looked surprised and had different expressions.
The middle-aged man’s voice was not very loud, and his speech was even a bit slurred due to his drunkenness, but his words were clear enough to fall on the ears of the crowd.
It was clear that …… was pointing directly at Chen Dong!
“Master Wang Clan?”
Chen Dong looked as normal and murmured softly.
Long Lao, who was at the same table, understood and hurriedly said, “It should be the Guanlong Wang Family, a great predator in food, worth tens of billions.”
“Drunk as hell!”
Rothschild laughed, but the way he looked at the Wang family head was incomparably strange.
Chen Dong rubbed his nose and was about to agree.
Suddenly, a cold, frosty voice rang out beside him.
“Drunk? This is an occasion where people are drunk and their hearts are clear, would a ten billion dollar family be so stupid as to get drunk without distinguishing the occasion?”
Chen Dong’s expression was astonished, and when he turned his head, he saw that Ye Linglong had already gotten up and walked towards the Wang family head with a frosty face.
The speed was so fast that it was too late for Chen Dong to stop her.
Looking at Ye Linglong’s back, even if it was just a back, Chen Dong could feel a biting and piercing coldness.
He smiled helplessly and glanced at Elder Long beside him, “I kind of understand why she said before she entered just now that she could suffer from my aggression and would not suffer from others.”
“At least she’s the jewel of the Hong Society, the one that the three thousand six hundred doors have held up to the sky since she was a child!”
Long Lao shrugged, said meaningfully: “Phoenix perched on the wutong, that is like, other weeds and shrubs, the phoenix spreads its feathers, can snicker!”
As he spoke.
Ye Linglong had already walked up to the Wang Family Master.
In full view of all eyes.
Everyone looked stunned when they saw Ye Linglong.
What was she up to?
The Wang family head sat back in his chair, unaware of Ye Linglong who was close at hand, and waved his hand: “Isn’t she just a vixen from the Hong Society? I’m sure she’s capable of making Young Master Chen change his mind overnight, so maybe they’ll hook up sometime.
“Old Wang, you should cut the crap!”
The person who knew him well beside him, sweating profusely, advised, his eyes staring at Ye Linglong in fear.
The words had just fallen.
Ye Linglong suddenly opened his voice: “Since you know that I am from the Hong Society, then you should know the style of action of our Hong Society, right?”
It was as cold as ice and frost, as if a cold wind was sweeping across the room.
The Wang Family Master’s expression was astonished, and the drunkenness in his eyes was reduced by a few points as he slowly turned his head.
Just as his face was facing Ye Linglong.
Snap!
Without any warning.
Ye Linglong suddenly slapped the Wang Family Master’s face with great force.
The sound was so loud that the horizontal flesh on the Wang Family Master’s face trembled, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and his body even fell straight towards the ground.
“Hiss~”
A sound of sucking in cold air suddenly resounded throughout the room.
However.
The moment the Wang Family Master broke away from the chair, Ye Linglong’s left hand brazenly grabbed his neck, and with a “thud”, he forcefully dragged the Wang Family Master back to the table, and fiercely pressed his head onto the table.
“How dare you bark like a dog or a cat? My Ye Linglong’s man needs you to say anything? Gan Liniang!”
Bang!
A flash of lightning.
Ye Linglong’s face was as cold as frost as she grabbed a wine bottle on the table with her right hand and smashed it blatantly onto the Wang Family Master’s head, splitting it in four.
The sound was like thunder and the whole room was silenced!
