Chapter 352 Has He Found a Backer?
"Doris!"
As soon as the call was connected, before Doris could speak, a deep voice with a hint of majesty came from the other end of the phone.
But the voice was obviously a little urgent, as if it was blaming Doris for taking so long to answer the phone.
When Doris heard this extremely familiar voice, she was shocked. She never expected that the person who called her was the head of the Habsburg family - Ackerman Habsburg!
"Ah…Uncle Ackerman!"
Doris felt her voice begin to tremble, and she felt a sense of panic in her heart about the ruler of the Habsburg family.
Even through the phone, Doris felt an inexplicable pressure falling on her, making her speak without the slightest confidence.
My mind felt blank and I didn't know what to say.
"Where are you now? Didn't you call home earlier and say that the Asian-looking guy wanted to meet and talk with us? I'm already in Manchester!"
Ackerman's tone remained the same as before, with an overbearing look, and he showed no awareness of his family's decline.
Hearing this, Doris quickly looked at Su Chen for help.
Su Chen pointed towards the building not far away. It was the Ritz-Carlton Hotel where they were staying.
Doris reacted immediately and told the address of the hotel. Ackerman on the other end of the phone replied "I know" and hung up.
Looking at the hung up call, Doris's face showed a bit more sadness.
"Why do you look so sad? Are you worried that your Uncle Ackerman will cause some trouble?" Su Chen smiled and stretched out his hand, pinched Doris's little face, and asked with a smile.
Doris shook her head slightly when she heard this. Based on what she knew about Su Chen's background, as a shareholder of the world's three largest luxury goods companies, he was enough to crush the Habsburg family.
What's more, this is just the tip of the iceberg that Su Chen showed.
Besides, she had seen the previous conflict on the court. The bodyguards around Su Chen all carried weapons with them and were even brave enough to shoot.
She had seen such bodyguards before, but that was only in movies. This was the first time she had seen such a person in real life.
"It's just..." The sadness on Doris's face did not dissipate much. She had heard about that cheap uncle. What he looked down upon the most were people with yellow skin.
Doris learned from other family members that in her uncle Ackerman's heart, only white people are the greatest, and other people of color are not in his eyes.
"I'm afraid Uncle Ackerman's words may be too harsh and make you unhappy. Please bear with me when the time comes!"
After all, they are a family, and Doris subconsciously still cares about her family members, even if their relationship is not very good.
"Oh~" Su Chen looked at Doris meaningfully, rubbed her little head, and responded nonchalantly: "As long as your uncle doesn't say too much, I will definitely not be angry."
Although he said this, a cold light flashed in Su Chen's eyes. He remembered how the Habsburg family described him when they called Doris before.
Just to teach the Habsburg family a lesson, Su Chen specially asked Raymond to arrange a team of elites to come back. If he didn't teach the Habsburg family a lesson, all his arrangements would be in vain.
Of course, we also need to see the attitude of Ackerman, the head of the Habsburg family. If his attitude is good, that would be another matter.
However, the people of Su Chen Habsburg family did not hold out much hope. After all, he had heard the conversation between Doris and Ackerman just now.
The convoy soon arrived at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel!
As soon as I got out of the car, Sheikh called me, "Su, can I go with you to take a look?"
Sheikh didn't want to miss this good show. He knew the Habsburg family very well. From the decline of the top family in Europe to the current neglect, the only thing that remained unchanged was their arrogant gaze.
He also wanted to see whether this arrogant look today would yield in front of Su Chen.
"You want to go with me?" Su Chen looked at Xie He in surprise.
Doesn't this guy know how famous he is? If the Sheikh is present and the Habsburgs don't dare to act presumptuously, then what's the fun in that?
Just as he was about to express his thoughts, Su Chen thought of what happened between him and Sheikh at the Guangming Club. As one of the families at that time, the Habsburg family should also know the inside story.
After thinking about it, Su Chen nodded and agreed, "Okay, but just take a look, don't add drama to yourself!"
"Additional drama?"
Xie He was completely confused. Just when he was about to ask what this added drama meant, he saw Su Chen had already walked into the hotel.
"Hey, wait for me, what's the point of adding drama?" Sheikh hurriedly chased after him.
……
The Ritz-Carlton Hotel, top floor!
Su Chen specifically went to the hotel to inquire. He originally wanted to find a quiet place to meet Ackerman, but he didn't expect to learn from the hotel staff that the top floor of the hotel had a unique scenery.
When Su Chen and his group arrived at the top floor of the hotel, they found that there was a sky garden. While enjoying afternoon tea, they could also soak in the infinity pool and appreciate the city scenery of Manchester.
However, the sky garden is not open to ordinary customers. Only those in the presidential suite like Su Chen and his friends can enjoy this treatment.
This also meant that there were not many people in the sky garden on the rooftop. Apart from a few staff members, only Su Chen and his group were left.
I found a seat with a good view and could take in most of Manchester city.
Less than ten minutes after they sat down and chatted, Doris received a call from Ackerman, asking about their exact location in the hotel.
Ackerman arrived quickly, and in a moment he was led by the hotel staff to the top floor of the hotel.
When he saw Su Chen, especially when he saw Xie He, a look of surprise appeared on his face, but disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"Wow, man, is this outfit too high-profile?" Su Chen asked without thinking.
Looking at Ackerman, who was wearing a morning suit that couldn't be more formal, with a top hat, a cane in his hand, and a gold pocket watch chain hanging outside his vest, he looked like a 19th century aristocrat.
"Hehe, no, that's right. This was once the face of European aristocrats. Ordinary aristocrats don't have the confidence to wear this out!" Sheikh explained with a smile.
But the fleeting sneer at the corner of his mouth was ridiculous for the pitiful pride of the Habsburg family.
They think they are still the proud white swan, but in fact, in the eyes of others, the Habsburg family is not much different from clowns.
"Mr. Sheikh, I didn't expect to meet you here!" After Ackerman approached, he took off his hat with a smile, put it on his chest and gave Sheikh a standard hat-taking salute.
Sheikh smiled and nodded in response, "Hahaha, it just happened. I just came back to the hotel with Su after watching the game, so I came over to take a look."
"Just chat about your own things, don't bother me!"
Sheikh nodded to Su Chen, then took his coffee cup and sat on the sofa not far away, leaving the seat for Ackerman. Ackerman did not expect Sheikh to do this, and after a brief moment of daze, he looked at Su Chen.
However, there was no respect in that look as he had shown before when looking at Sheikh. Instead, there was more of a sense of scrutiny.
After looking for about four or five seconds, Ackerman put his hat on the table and sat down in the Sheikh's original seat.
After sitting down, Ackerman's eyes were still fixed on Su Chen, as if he wanted to see through him.
There was a hint of disdain and arrogance in Ackerman's eyes. Even though he had learned about Su Chen's background from the Guangming Club, he still did not have any respect for Su Chen, this "Oriental face".
"Are you the Oriental man Doris mentioned?" Ackerman's tone was full of obvious doubt and coldness.
Su Chen raised his eyes slightly and glanced at Ackerman. There was no expression on his face and he concentrated on drinking the coffee in his hand.
He knew that Ackerman must have something else to say, otherwise he wouldn't have come up with such a contemptuous look.
This is typically a prelude to the subsequent denigration.
Sure enough, Ackerman had a smile on his face and his eyes were full of memories.
"I am quite familiar with your Eastern country. Our Habsburg family still has many antiques from your country!"
"Things like porcelain, bronze, jade, calligraphy and paintings were all brought back from the East by our ancestors more than a hundred years ago. They filled three large rooms of more than 50 square meters."
"Crack!"
Sheikh, who wanted to watch the show, dropped the coffee cup in his hand onto the table, and the unfinished coffee spilled all over the table.
Sheikh didn't care about these things. Instead, he looked at Ackerman in shock. He never thought that how Ackerman could say these words.
Doesn’t he know how Su Chen would feel after saying this?
You have to know that in a big Eastern country, five thousand years of history are just mentioned in one stroke, and a century of humiliation is divided into two volumes?
Who gave Ackerman the courage to say these words in front of Su Chen? Could it be his ancestor who had long since turned to ashes?
Even if his ancestors crawled out of the earth and understood the strength of the current Eastern power, they would not have the courage to say such words.
Apart from Sheikh, besides Su Chen, only Fade Chen could feel the insult in Ackerman's words.
If he hadn't seen that Su Chen didn't give any instructions, he would have kicked Ackerman's proud dog face.
Xie He and Chen Fei both focused their attention on Su Chen, expecting his counterattack.
Su Chen slowly put down the teacup in his hand. Although he was very angry about Ackerman's barking, he did not show it on his face.
After all, if a dog bites you, you can't bite it back.
When facing a mad dog like Ackerman who is so arrogant, the only way is to give it a good beating show when it is barking the loudest, so that it will remember the pain that goes deep into its bones.
"Everyone has their moments of glory, but don't take them for granted, like the Habsburgs are doing now. There is no room for you in Europe anymore."
"I'm just curious..." Su Chen looked at Ackerman, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and asked in a cold voice: "Where do you get the courage to talk to me like this!"
Ackerman's face changed when he heard this, and his brows immediately frowned. He looked at Su Chen with wide eyes. Ackerman felt that his face was trampled under the feet of Su Chen.
Before he could refute, Su Chen's voice rang out again, but there was no coldness in his voice as before, only a hint of amusement.
"I guess you learned about me from the Guangming Club before you came here, and know that I am a shareholder of the world's three largest luxury goods groups!"
"But you are still so arrogant, and even deliberately brought up the pain from a hundred years ago, just to provoke me and make me do something impulsive."
"The person who is in charge of the Habsburg family, who is about to leave the aristocratic stage, is so brainless. I think he must have found a solid backer, so you don't have to fear my power."
Su Chen's mouth corners slightly raised, his eyes fixed on Ackerman, and he said with a teasing tone: "I don't know if what I said is right, Patriarch Ackerman!"
As soon as these words were spoken, Xie He's expression froze. After thinking about what Su Chen said, a hint of shock flashed in Xie He's eyes.
His astonished eyes moved back and forth between Ackerman and Su Chen. He had never thought about it in this way before.
As for Ackerman, he opened his mouth wide and looked at Su Chen with an expression of disbelief.
What Su Chen said was not wrong at all. He did receive a call when he came here. After an in-depth communication between the two parties, Ackerman made this decision.
In Ackerman's opinion, the other party can provide him with much more assistance than Su Chen.
Looking at the change in Ackerman's expression, Su Chen knew that he had guessed right.
Su Chen felt something was wrong at the beginning, especially after Ackerman's performance.
Being able to become the head of a family means that he is at least not stupid enough to provoke the other party right away, and he is also a person who knows that the other party is not a simple person.
Unless... he is not afraid! He has the strength and confidence to stop Su Chen's revenge!
Knowing that he is a shareholder of the world's three largest luxury goods companies, he still rashly intervenes in the affairs of Su Chen and the Habsburg family. Unless others have a grudge against Su Chen, no one else would get involved in this muddy water.
"Let me guess who it is!" Su Chen touched his chin and muttered, "The Bright Club? It shouldn't be. After all, I don't have any grudges against them. It's not like they blame me because I rejected the membership invitation from their headquarters!"
"If it's not the Bright Club, then it can only be the recent trouble!"
"If I'm not mistaken, the person you call your backer must be Li Mingrui from the Li Group!"
"As the largest financial group in South Korea, they are indeed very powerful!"
As he spoke, Su Chen lit a cigarette for himself, took a deep puff, and blew the smoke toward Ackerman.
"But I'm just wondering, where do you get the confidence to think that the Li Group's connections in Europe are better than mine, Su Chen?"
Ackerman's expression changed drastically. He stood up from the chair in an instant, pointed at Su Chen with his right hand, and said with trembling body: "You you..."
Seeing Ackerman's expression, Sheikh also understood that what Su Chen had just said was all right. He looked at Su Chen's back with a little more respect in his eyes.
For a moment, the scene became quiet, except for Ackerman who was still gasping for breath.
At this time, Ackerman felt a little regretful, wondering if the decision he made was too hasty.
But the conditions offered by the other party were so tempting that he had no choice but to do so!
"Clap clap clap!"
"Excellent, really wonderful. I didn't expect Mr. Su to have such a sharp eye!"
At this moment, a voice came from a distance, breaking this brief silence.
Everyone looked up and saw a group of people walking towards them, at least seven or eight of them!
Su Chen saw a familiar figure among those people, and his eyes narrowed slightly. He also realized that these people had come with bad intentions.
