I confess, I am the Mr. Richest-Chapter 445: Want to Show Off in Front of Chu Chen? (Third Update)
Chapter 445: Chapter 445: Want to Show Off in Front of Chu Chen? (Third Update)
Especially now that she’s hearing the blind date guy—Ding Jiaguang—talk about his two-million Porsche as if it were just a regular car,
and that he plans to get an even better one, Zhong Shuyao felt more stressed.
At this moment, all Zhong Shuyao could do was pray silently in her heart.
She hoped that Ah Yuan and his friend could one-up Ding Jiaguang.
Zhong Shuyao and her mother sat in the back seat, as Ding Jiaguang drove straight to Wangjiang Pavilion.
"First time going to Wangjiang Pavilion, I wonder what it’s like inside?"
In the car, Zhong’s mother said expectantly.
"Auntie, be it the ambiance or the food, Wangjiang Pavilion is top-notch in Shanghai."
"It will surely make you happy."
Driving his Porsche, Ding Jiaguang said confidently.
Half an hour later, they arrived in front of Wangjiang Pavilion.
After parking the car, Ding Jiaguang promptly got out and opened the car door, displaying gentlemanly manners.
Seeing this, Zhong’s mother was more satisfied with Ding Jiaguang, thinking he was a considerate young man.
Zhong’s mother and Zhong Shuyao got out of the car.
At this moment, a striking Ferrari slowly pulled up.
Han Yuan parked the Ferrari right beside Zhong Shuyao’s group, getting out with Chu Chen.
Seeing Han Yuan step out of the Ferrari, Zhong’s mother and Zhong Shuyao were both dumbfounded.
What is going on here?
Since Chu Chen had told his buddy to keep it a secret, Zhong Shuyao had no idea about the specifics either.
"Ferrari?"
Looking at the Ferrari logo, Zhong’s mother appeared incredulous.
This kid drives a Ferrari?
Zhong’s mother rubbed her eyes hard, finding it difficult to believe the scene she was witnessing.
Even though she didn’t know exactly how much this Ferrari cost, judging by the looks, it must be more expensive than Ding Jiaguang’s Porsche!
"Xiaoyao, Auntie, hello, didn’t expect to see you here?"
Han Yuan greeted proactively.
"Mm-hmm."
Zhong Shuyao nodded towards Han Yuan, her eyes full of admiration, equally excited.
She didn’t expect Ah Yuan really outdid Ding Jiaguang, Ah Yuan’s friend was truly capable.
"Hello..."
Zhong’s mother answered instinctively.
Noticing the unusual expressions and movements from Zhong’s mother and Zhong Shuyao, Ding Jiaguang largely guessed Han Yuan’s identity.
"Auntie, shall we go inside?"
"This time, I specifically reserved a table by the window so we can enjoy the view of the Bund."
Ding Jiaguang said, flaunting.
The positions at Wangjiang Pavilion also came in tiers.
The most expensive were private rooms, and not just anybody could enter them.
Among others, tables by the windows were the best and also very pricey, out of reach for ordinary folks.
Ding Jiaguang deliberately mentioned the reserved spot just to flaunt and show off his wealth!
"What?"
"A window seat?"
Once again, Zhong’s mother was intrigued by Ding Jiaguang.
Under her mother’s urging, Zhong Shuyao reluctantly followed them inside.
"Reservation, yeah, you need to make one for such upscale restaurants."
Upon hearing Ding Jiaguang’s words, his buddy had a sudden epiphany that a reservation was necessary to dine at such high-end eateries.
Things were moving too fast, and he forgot about this matter all of a sudden?
What to do, what to do?
"No worries, follow me."
Chu Chen patted his buddy’s shoulder and walked ahead.
Curiously, his buddy followed closely.
Nearby, seeing Chu Chen and his buddy enter, Zhong Shuyao’s group also turned to look.
Zhong’s mother had an expression of watching a show on her face, wanting to see where this person, whom she had previously dismissed, would be dining.
Meanwhile, Ding Jiaguang wore a smug look, glaring haughtily at Chu Chen and Han Yuan.
To secure this excellent spot for dining, he spent a good half month exerting effort.
He didn’t believe Chu Chen and his buddy could get a better spot than him.
Seeing Chu Chen appear, a restaurant staff member hurried over.
"Chu..."
The staff was just about to address him as "President Chu," but was halted by a look from Chu Chen.
He didn’t want Zhong’s mother, Ding Jiaguang, and others to know his identity.
"Mr. Chu, hello."
Understanding Chu Chen’s intention, the staff immediately changed their words, respectfully asking,
"Is there anything I can assist Mr. Chu with?"
"We’ll be in Private Room No. 3."
Chu Chen said, choosing the room nearest to Zhong’s mother and Ding Jiaguang.
Private Room No. 3?
Upon hearing this, Zhong’s mother was stunned.
There are private rooms here?
It was her first time at Wangjiang Pavilion, so naturally, she didn’t know about the private rooms.
As for Ding Jiaguang, he widened his eyes in disbelief.
"Rooms, you’re saying rooms now?"
Ding Jiaguang scoffed inwardly; could those two possibly get into a private room?
He absolutely did not believe Chu Chen and Han Yuan could enter a room.
The next moment, unexpectedly to him, the staff member, having heard Chu Chen’s words, directly made a welcoming gesture,
"Alright, please follow me."
And soon, under the staff’s lead,
Chu Chen and Han Yuan walked past Ding Jiaguang, Zhong’s mother, and the others, entering Private Room No. 3.
They went in?
They really went into a room?
Ding Jiaguang looked as if he’d seen a ghost.
Getting into a private room at Wangjiang Pavilion for dining, was it so easy?
Just a word and it’s done?!
Ding Jiaguang’s chest heaved up and down, infuriated.
He had gone through so much trouble to secure a window table, and those two ended up in a private room instead.
Wasn’t this obviously overshadowing him?
Unconvinced, absolutely unconvinced!
Ding Jiaguang felt unsatisfied in his heart, yet he had to admit, at present, he’d lost and lost miserably at that.
Beside him, watching Ding Jiaguang’s demeanor, Zhong’s mother understood.
The room was definitely better than where they were seated.
How could a poor kid with no background, no money possibly go to a room?
Zhong’s mother could not quite wrap her head around it.
Could that guy have lied to her?
Doubts brewed in Zhong’s mother’s mind.
Whatever, it’s just a meal, not a big deal, she thought. frёeweɓηovel.coɱ
Even though Han Yuan won this round, in other aspects, Han Yuan surely wouldn’t be a match for Ding Jiaguang, estimated Zhong’s mother.
Meanwhile, Zhong Shuyao enjoyed her meal joyfully, Ah Yuan won!
Zhong Shuyao was very grateful to Chu Chen.
In the private room, as various gourmet dishes were served one after another, his buddy was dumbfounded.
It was his first time in such a high-end restaurant, seeing delicacies of this caliber.
"By the way, we didn’t have a reservation, how did we get a room?"
Reflecting on what had just happened, Han Yuan couldn’t help but ask.
"Why make a reservation at your own restaurant?"
Chu Chen replied casually while eating.
Your own restaurant?
Wasn’t this renowned upscale restaurant in Shanghai owned by Chu Chen?
"Extravagant, so extravagant."
His buddy exclaimed in awe.
How long had it been since he arrived in Shanghai, yet Chu Chen had already acquired a high-end restaurant in the city.
How much money did this cost?
His buddy couldn’t believe it and could only say Chu Chen was "extravagant beyond words."
Outside, as he ate, Ding Jiaguang pondered about what to do next.
This time in the restaurant, he tried to flaunt and failed.
Where to go next?
"Auntie, do you like playing golf?"
"In the afternoon, how about we go to Guanlan International Golf Club for a game?"
Ding Jiaguang proposed.
He was quite familiar with that place; going there to show off, there should be no problem.
"Guanlan International Golf Club?"
"Sure."
Shanghai’s Guanlan International Golf Club was one of the most prestigious golf clubs in the city, she had only heard of it, but never been.
They said it was a place frequented by the upper echelons of Shanghai society, with frighteningly high expenses!
"Isn’t it a bit extravagant?"
Zhong’s mother asked.
"Extravagant, not at all, it’s quite affordable there, I often go there to play."
Ding Jiaguang replied nonchalantly, showing off again.
Zhong Shuyao wanted to dissuade her mother, but Zhong’s mother insisted on going; helplessly, Zhong Shuyao could only text his buddy.
In the private room, after hearing from his buddy,
"Guanlan International Golf Club, sure, why not."
"I haven’t played golf in a while myself, this is a great chance to have some fun."
Chu Chen spoke.
Half an hour later, Ding Jiaguang’s group finished their meal.
With Ding Jiaguang leading, the three headed straight to Guanlan International Golf Club.
Following closely, Chu Chen and his buddy went as well.
Arriving at Guanlan Golf Club, Ding Jiaguang didn’t start off by showing off but waited.
Ding Jiaguang waited for a bit before seeing Chu Chen and Han Yuan approach, his face breaking into a slight smug smile.
They finally arrived, now was his time to shine!!!
This time, he intended to flaunt right in front of Chu Chen and his buddy, crushing Chu Chen and his friend soundly!
As Chu Chen and his buddy walked closer, Ding Jiaguang stepped forward a few paces, ready for his performance.
