Female Novel
Chapter 556
"Hmph, why do you, the guy with terrible luck, have to be so arrogant?"
At that moment, Yu Hui glanced disdainfully and enviously at everything before her. She exaggeratedlynarrated the situation to Zhou Yang and others.
"Don't misunderstand, Chu Feng, the adopted son of Zhou Lie, only managed to meet Mr. Li Hongtuand Mr. Li due to some unfortunate circumstances. Mr. Li has always upheld principles of kindness andjustice. He probably couldn't resist the pleas of their family, so he reluctantly came here. It's just a briefappearance, merely a favor."
"You surely don't believe that the third brother's family possesses the influence to invite Li Hongtu tosupport you, do you? Hehehe…"
As Yu Hui's words worked their magic, everyone understood her.
Even Mr. Zhou's initial surprise gradually transformed into disappointment
Later, their attitude turned even more scornful. Such displays of favoritism were a one-time occurrenceand could not demonstrate their true connections and influence.
In their eyes, Zhou Lie's family was a laughingstock.
One by one, people began to realize this, yet they chose to overlook it. It was simply a gesture ofrepayment. How could Li Hongtu present a fortune worth 400 million dollars? Why would he spend somuch money and effort?
Perhaps, they pondered over it, but they simply did not want to acknowledge the excellence of othersor did not dare to do so!
"Hmph, the third brother still maintains that unpleasant temperament and wants to save face whilesuffering. He managed to invite Li Hongtu through favors, but who else can he invite next?" novelbin
Zhou Yang, who was embarrassed, felt quite displeased. He held an air of disdain and confidentlydeclared, "If their family can invite another person, I will eat this table!"
As soon as he spoke…
"Mr. Ma Sanyuan, Chairman of Jiangling Universal Chamber of Commerce, Senior Vice President ofFeng Yun Group, sends a collaboration offer—worth one billion!"
Ma Sanyuan beamed with a hearty smile as he stepped into the scene, his robust figure exudingconfidence. "Happy birthday, Mr. Zhou."
"Wow!"
The scene erupted once again as if tossing a bowl of cold water into a sizzling pan of hot oil.
Even Mr. Zhou in the grand hall shook his hands in excitement, accidentally shattering a teacup. Heexclaimed eagerly, "Please, please have a seat."
One billion? That was the annual net profit of the Zhou family. How could they not be thrilled?
"Oh my God, one billion dollars? Unbelievable!"
"Exactly! Do you even realize who this is? Ma Sanyuan, the leader of the Jiangling region and the vicepresident of Feng Yun Group. Do you know Fengyun Group? It's one of the biggest groups in Jiangbeiwith a market value of 50 billion dollars!"
"Hey, who holds such power? Please, Mr. Ma, have a seat!"
"It must be Zhou Wen. He was the leader of the Jiangbei region. Maybe he was Ma Sanyuan's patronin the past. Shh, let's keep it a secret."
In the front of the hall, Zhou Wen, held a teacup with a smile, exuding an air of a steadfast andunmovable leader, his face filled with joy.
What the crowd speculated turned out to be true. He had indeed been a prominent figure in Jianglingfor several years, and he had taken care of Ma Sanyuan. Unexpectedly, Ma Sanyuan had achievedremarkable success and prosperity, yet he had not forgotten his "benefactor."
"Zhou Yao, help me welcome Chairman Ma."
Zhou Wen sat composedly, radiating elegance.
"Yes."
Zhou Yao, too, brimming with pride, straightened his military uniform and approached Ma Sanyuan withan air of superiority. "President Ma, welcome…"
Before he could finish his sentence, Ma Sanyuan furrowed his brow, pushed him aside, and cursed,"Get out of my way, you brat!"
Afterward, he hurriedly made his way to Zhou Lie's side, donning a sycophantic and respectfulexpression. "I'm here, Mr. Zhou."
Zhou Lie nodded and uttered nonchalantly, "Please have a seat."
As if Ma Sanyuan had received a great favor, he found a chair and sat down on his own,enthusiastically shaking hands with Li Hongtu and engaging in cheerful conversation.
