Who would still be a social slave when they are so rich?
Chapter 528 This Rumor
"boom!"
"Come on... bottoms up! No one... no one is allowed to keep fish!"
Xiao Chen, his face flushed and eyes glazed, raised his wine glass, clinked glasses with Su Chen and the others, and then downed his drink in one gulp.
Before he could even put down his wine glass, he slumped back in his chair and fell asleep.
Seeing that Xiao Chen had finally blacked out, Su Chen glanced at Chen He and Wu Jing, and saw a hint of relief in their eyes.
Chen He and Wu Jing weren't in much better shape either; both were currently in a daze, teetering on the edge of losing their memories.
Those two were the main force accompanying Xiao Chen for drinks today!
There was nothing he could do about it. Su Chen's alcohol tolerance was only so-so. If he really joined in, he would probably be passed out on the table before the others even got into a good drink.
As for Deng Chao, he can only be considered half a main player at most. Although he has a good alcohol tolerance, he is a patient who has just recovered from illness, so he cannot be allowed to drink too much alcohol.
Naturally, this important task fell to Chen He and Wu Jing.
They didn't disappoint Su Chen either; the two of them took turns drinking Xiao Chen until he was completely drunk.
Looking at Xiao Chen, who was leaning back in his chair and snoring, Su Chen rubbed his throbbing temples and waved to Chen Fei, saying, "Afei, you and Wang Hai take two people and carry Brother Chen to his room to rest. Remember to arrange for someone to keep an eye on him in case anything unexpected happens."
Su Chen had seen many news reports about people dying unexpectedly after drinking too much, such as vomit blocking their airways or suffocating themselves by wrapping themselves in blankets.
Whether it's true or not, Su Chen has to take these unexpected factors into account.
“Okay, sir!” Chen Fei immediately greeted Wang Hai and the other two park staff members.
No one knows where they found something that looked like a stretcher. After several people lifted Xiao Chen onto it, they carried him by one corner and headed towards a house not far away.
Watching the group disappear through the door, Su Chen turned his gaze to Chen He and Wu Jing, who were propping their heads up with one hand. "You two should go and rest too. I'll have someone bring you some hangover soup to your room later."
Su Chen had originally thought there might be another "battle" that night, but after thinking about it, he decided against it. After all, he didn't know when Xiao Chen would wake up or whether he would seek revenge on the two of them for their drunken grudge!
Chen He and Wu Jing didn't stand on ceremony. They knew they had drunk quite a bit, and if they stayed here any longer and were blown around by the breeze, who knew if they might put on a "live performance"?
If that were the case, wouldn't I lose face big time? It might even leave a bad impression on Su Chen.
Chen He and Wu Jing exchanged a glance and said in unison, "Okay, then we'll trouble you!"
Two park staff members immediately came over and helped Chen He and Wu Jing into the building.
As for the hangover soup, Su Chen didn't need to explain again; the staff had already made arrangements.
The area in front of the barbecue grill suddenly fell silent, leaving only Su Chen and Deng Chao, whose face was slightly flushed.
Su Chen took out a pack of white cigarettes from his pocket, gave one to Deng Chao, and then lit one for himself, taking a deep drag.
After exhaling a cloud of smoke, Su Chen looked at Deng Chao beside him and said, "You should be alright, right? If you're not feeling well, go and rest for a while."
Deng Chao held a cigarette between his right index and middle fingers and pressed his thumb to his brow to make himself look more alert. "It's okay, I didn't drink much, just about ten bottles of beer and half a jin of baijiu. I took a break in the middle and also went to empty my bladder. I'm sober now."
As soon as he finished speaking, Deng Chao felt a huge shadow loom over him from behind, and he could clearly feel a fuzzy sensation on his head.
Immediately, Deng Chao froze, not daring to move an inch. He had already guessed that the owner of the shadow was the big white tiger that Su Chen had raised.
Although he had seen it several times, he couldn't help but feel a little scared. After all, who wouldn't be terrified if they saw such a huge beast?
So... he could only look to Su Chen beside him for help, open his mouth, and silently say, "Brother~ Big brother, hurry up and get Fatty Tiger away!"
Seeing this, Su Chen couldn't help but laugh. Fat Tiger was doing this on purpose, its big head was right on top of Deng Chao's head, and the soft fur on its chin was occasionally making intimate contact with Deng Chao's hair.
When Deng Chao and the others arrived, they considered that if this guy stayed here, it would inevitably make Deng Chao, Chen He and the other two feel uneasy, so they asked Fatty Tiger to stay somewhere else.
Unexpectedly, after they left, this guy immediately ran over and playfully played a little game with Deng Chao called "Are you scared?"
"Fat Tiger~ come here!" Su Chen called out to Fat Tiger, patted the empty space to his right, and gestured for it to come here.
Deng Chao felt the shadow above his head disappear instantly, and then a figure two heads taller than him, even while sitting, slowly walked out from beside him. In just a few steps, it walked to Su Chen's side and lay down, as quiet as a clingy big cat.
Looking at Fat Tiger's docile appearance, Deng Chao couldn't help but sigh, "If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, who would believe that this big guy is so obedient?"
Su Chen smiled and rubbed Fatty Tiger's chin, and Fatty Tiger immediately let out a comfortable purr, which made the cups on the table tremble slightly.
"Actually, animals are much simpler than humans." Su Chen exhaled a smoke ring. "As long as you treat them well, they'll be affectionate towards you! With plenty to eat and drink every day, what worries could they possibly have? They'll naturally become docile!"
Deng Chao nodded in agreement, but something quickly came to his mind. He took a puff of his cigarette before tentatively asking, "Mr. Su, there's something I'm not sure if I should ask?"
Upon hearing this, Su Chen raised an eyebrow, a playful smile appearing on his face. He jokingly continued, "Should I still ask? Do you think I should reply to you... Since you already know you shouldn't ask, why did you still ask?"
Deng Chao immediately smiled sheepishly, thinking of picking up a cigarette to cover his embarrassment, but found that the cigarette had burned down to the last bit, so he quickly stubbed it out in the ashtray.
Su Chen naturally took in this scene and smiled, saying, "Alright~ If you have something to ask, just ask. If I can tell you, I definitely won't hide anything from you."
Upon hearing this, Deng Chao's expression immediately became much more serious. He glanced at the house behind him before cautiously asking, "I feel that Mr. Xiao seems to be suppressing something. He came here to drink today purely to get drunk, and during the conversation, he kept expressing his emotions!" "Hmm?" Su Chen gave Deng Chao a deep look. He hadn't expected this guy to be so shrewd while drinking. Thinking about it, it made sense. In the entertainment industry, if you can't read between the lines, you might be sold out without even realizing it.
Su Chen tossed the burnt-out cigarette butt into the ashtray and slowly nodded. "It's true, just as you said. But don't ask for details. It won't do you any good to know."
"I called you all here today so you could have a drink with Brother Chen and let your emotions out."
After a pause, Su Chen continued, "Do you have any free time these next few days? If you are, come and stay for a couple of days. It'll be more lively with more people."
"By the way, the old man Wang I found for you last time was through Brother Chen's family connections." After saying that, Su Chen picked up a bottle of mineral water from the table next to him and moistened his dry throat.
"Yes, of course I have time!" Deng Chao's eyes lit up, and he immediately understood what Su Chen meant. If he refused all of them, wouldn't he, Deng Chao, be ungrateful?
Not to mention that Su Chen pointed him to a path to heaven, just the fact that the old man Wang, whom Su Chen arranged, healed his arm was enough for him to be grateful for. Of course, he would never forget Su Chen's kindness.
As expected, Deng Chao's reaction was exactly what Su Chen had anticipated. "Okay, remember to call home or the studio to let them know, so as not to delay your work."
Without the slightest delay, Deng Chao immediately picked up his phone, got up, and went to the side to make a call.
Just then, Chen Fei jogged out of the house, holding his phone, apparently having received a call.
"What happened?" Su Chen asked calmly as Chen Fei approached.
"Sir, Mr. Ji Wenbo just called and said that Li Mingrui of the Li Group has flown to Pengcheng, seemingly to prepare for the World Semiconductor Expo next month. The moment Li Mingrui arrived in Pengcheng, he met with many well-known semiconductor companies!"
Chen Fei paused slightly, then said with a hint of hesitation, "In addition... President Ji said he received a tip-off that young master Arthur from the Morgan family has also quietly arrived in the country!"
"Interesting!" Su Chen's lips curled up slightly, and a strange smile flashed in his eyes. "Where there's smoke, there's fire. Since this rumor has spread, Arthur must have already arrived in the country."
Su Chen had good reason to suspect that this so-called inside information was deliberately released by Arthur or Li Ming to attract the attention of their domestic or foreign branches.
After all, both Arthur and Li Mingze are heirs of wealthy families, and both the Morgan family and the Li Group are highly sought-after by countless companies.
Who wouldn't want to hug those super thick legs?
Especially for those medium-sized semiconductor companies in China, if they catch the eye of those two individuals, a small investment could very well be the key to changing their fate.
Su Chen tapped his fingers lightly on the armrest of the chair, wondering if he should take some countermeasures, but he quickly dismissed the idea. He had a feeling that Arthur was coming for him.
But if he didn't make any move, it wouldn't be in line with Su Chen's style. Arthur and Li Mingze might even be gossiping about him behind his back.
Fat Tiger, lying at Su Chen's feet, seemed to sense the change in Su Chen's thoughts. It raised its head and rubbed its nose against Su Chen's hand that was tapping the armrest.
"Hahaha~ You rascal..." Feeling the strangeness in his hand, Su Chen laughed and rubbed Fatty Tiger's big head.
"Sir, should we call President Ji and ask him to make things difficult for those two?" Chen Fei asked in a low voice.
Su Chen calmly waved his hand, a meaningful smile playing on his lips: "No need for tripping them up. To destroy someone, you must first make them go mad. Let them be arrogant for a while. However... there are still some things we need to be careful about!"
He raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Chen Fei, instructing him: "Give Ji Wenbo a call and tell him to keep an eye on which companies Arthur and Li Mingze have contacted. Make a note of any companies that have reached cooperation agreements or formed alliances."
"By the way... were the security guards at Xiaxin International's headquarters transferred from the Zhengdao Industrial Park, or from the security company under the Yunmengze Group?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Fei quickly reported, "Sir, they were transferred from the Zhengdao Industrial Park. There are two groups of fifty people in total, one experienced and one new, and all of them have passed the assessment!"
"Hmm!" Su Chen nodded slightly, pondered for a moment, and then said, "Also, tell Ji Wenbo to keep an eye on the employees inside Xiaxin International, so that the same thing that happened on Zhengdao can not happen again."
Speaking of this matter, a fierce glint flashed in Su Chen's eyes. Although this matter did not cause any losses, on the contrary, it brought up a lot of hidden "scoundrels" who had been hiding for many years.
Su Chen kept this matter in mind, but he just didn't have a good opportunity. Otherwise, he would have definitely taught the Japanese a lesson.
Chen Fei immediately understood. This was because they were worried that the staff inside Xiaxin International might be bribed by Arthur and Li Mingze. "Understood. I will call President Ji right away and ask him to strengthen the internal review of Xiaxin International, especially the departments and personnel that have been in frequent contact with the outside world recently."
Human nature is the most vulnerable to temptation!
Especially when faced with huge financial interests, even close relationships like brothers or fathers and sons can turn into enemies because of money, let alone ordinary employer-employee relationships.
Su Chen nodded in satisfaction. "Go ahead, tell him to be careful and not to alert the enemy. We just need to observe the situation. Also... if anything unexpected happens, report it immediately!"
"Yes!" Chen Fei accepted the order and immediately went to the side to make a phone call.
Su Chen then noticed Deng Chao, who had already finished his phone call. Seemingly afraid of overhearing something confidential, Deng Chao took a few steps toward the lake and was kicking pebbles on the ground.
Hearing that Su Chen had fallen silent, Deng Chao turned around and saw Su Chen looking at him. He immediately walked over with a relaxed smile on his face: "Mr. Su, everything is arranged here. I'll shamelessly bother you for the next few days!"
"Look at what you're saying! I'm the one asking you for help, how am I bothering you?" Su Chen said with a smile, inviting Deng Chao to sit down.
The two chatted by the lake for a while, and before they knew it, it was past one o'clock in the afternoon. They had both drunk quite a bit of wine and were feeling a little tired.
Su Chen immediately told Deng Chao to go back to their rooms for an afternoon nap to recharge! (End of Chapter)
