The Wealthy Tycoon's Game of Life

Chapter 966: Chapter 361: Round Table Knight

”Such things can’t be kept hidden. Maybe right now, Xue Mingyuan has already caught wind of it. Only by catching the other side completely off guard can we preserve the evidence to the greatest extent.”

”Won’t he run away?”

”Mr. Zhou, for people like us, leaving the country isn’t that easy... let alone under such rushed circumstances.”

Yan Lingchuan just smiled.

Zhou Wang was puzzled, ”Then how were there so many that ran away in the past...”

”That was either due to careful planning against incautious actions, or a few smart people who prepared before any signs appeared, maybe some other reasons too. But we shouldn’t speculate wildly; in any case, believing in justice is enough.”

”That’s true.”

Zhou Wang nodded and smiled.

The two exchanged contact information and sat down to chat for a while.

Indeed, by setting aside their adversarial positions, Zhou Wang immediately felt a different kind of charisma in this legendary ”Head of the Four Young Masters of Beidou.”

He didn’t have Qiu Zeyu’s amiability, nor Jiang Minghao’s coldness. He was more like a gentle breeze and light rain, always able to find suitable topics to respond with during conversations, truly a person with high emotional intelligence.

The only thing that puzzled Zhou Wang was that he would occasionally frown, perhaps due to not feeling well.

”Mr. Zhou, you are indeed interesting. Let’s leave it at that today. I have some matters to attend to, so I won’t stay longer.”

As Zhou Wang lit another cigarette, Yan Lingchuan, unable to sit still with a twitch of his eyelid, smiled and got up to bid farewell.

In the midst of a very engaging conversation, Zhou Wang couldn’t force the other to stay. He could only regretfully nod and see Yan Lingchuan off with Qiu Zeyu and others accompanying them.

With Yan Lingchuan’s departure, the other guests realized the time was about up. Although Zhou Wang still didn’t mention anything about joining the Wangyuan Association, they had already achieved their initial goal of leaving a good first impression on Zhou Wang by taking the opportunity to join the Jingwang Club.

Compared to those who would swarm after the news spread, they undoubtedly had the upper hand.

As the guests bid their farewells one by one, only Qiu Zeyu, Young Master Zhang, and other familiar brothers remained. Oh, no, there was still Miss Gu, who was using the excuse of being dizzy from drinking to linger around.

But under the watchful eyes of Xu Lingyue, Lin Ran, and others, Zhou Wang couldn’t possibly keep her tonight. He had to call Miss Li, who pretended to leave, to take Miss Gu away.

Miss Gu’s eyes were quite wistful. It must be said, with her stunning looks, seeing her with a wronged expression at that moment, Zhou Wang indeed felt a bit soft-hearted, but in front of so many people, he could only feign indifference.

Finally, after all the outsiders were sent away, the banquet hall became a lot quieter.

”Mr. Zhou, would you like to take a look at the gifts?”

Jiang Qingkui, returning from the bathroom without anyone noticing, had her usual aloof expression back. She gave a slight smile pointing at the corner filled with exquisite gifts.

According to Huaxia customs, most guests primarily give red envelopes when attending, typically not too much, usually one or two thousand.

Their true sincerity is shown in applying for membership cards afterward.

But there are exceptions.

Like Kelly from Hermes, these foreigners prefer to give various gifts.

Glancing at the gift boxes adorned with luxury brand logos, Zhou Wang was uninterested in moving. Even knowing that the contents were likely valuable, often themed around limited editions and customizations, Zhou Wang still had no interest.

”I won’t look; you guys can open them for me. If there’s anything useful, just take it as a little reward for your hard work lately...”

Before Zhou Wang could finish speaking, he felt a ”whoosh” sound beside him. Turning his head again, Jiang Qingkui, Lin Ran, and Xu Lingyue were all gone. When Zhou Wang looked back in confusion, he saw them squatting in front of the pile of gifts, laughing and starting to unbox them.

?

Zhou Wang couldn’t quite understand what happened, perhaps a brief time warp had occurred. Just a moment ago, the women were standing beside him.

Qiu Zeyu and others were equally baffled, clearly unsure if their eyes had deceived them.

Unable to figure it out, Zhou Wang attributed it to women’s peculiar hobby of ”unboxing deliveries,” causing a timeline chaos.

As he was about to rally his brothers to experience the SPA technique of the recently started young ladies at the club, with each receiving a ”four-hands massage,” his waist intercom suddenly went off.

”Mr. Zhou, there’s an unexpected situation to report...”

Zhou Wang recognized Huang Duming’s voice and asked, confused, ”What unexpected situation?”

”Uh... Xue Mingyuan is here.”

Huang Duming was also caught off guard and cautiously added, ”But he’s alone. Do you want me to send him away?”

”He’s alone?”

Zhou Wang was equally surprised, but after thinking it over, he instructed Huang Duming to wait at the door while he went out to have a look himself.

Qiu Zeyu and others were equally puzzled by Xue Mingyuan’s arrival at this time. They were unaware that Zhou Wang had reached an agreement with Yan Lingchuan and even more so that Yan Lingchuan had already taken action. Out of concern, they all followed Zhou Wang out.
