Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 979: Chapter 978 Living Off a Woman

The man in the suit was actually rather calm and smiled lightly, ”Everyone, shall we enter the venue first? In a little while, I have to go out again to welcome others!”

People looked at each other, at this point, they didn’t even know what to say anymore, and could only follow the man in the suit into the venue.

”How... how could this happen?” Lin Qian’s voice trembled, everyone else’s face was full of shock; they really couldn’t understand what was going on.

At that moment, Li Chuan’s face was distorted with rage, and he gritted his teeth, ”I never expected, really never expected, that this Su Yang would be so shameless!”

”What?” Everyone was astonished as they looked at Li Chuan. They were all shocked, so how could Li Chuan say something like that?

Li Chuan glanced at the crowd and said, ”Haven’t you figured it out yet? These people, could Su Yang really have invited them? So many celebrities from different agencies, do you know how many agencies he would have had to contact to get them all here? Even if Su Yang comes from a good family, does he have that kind of capability?”

Everyone was suddenly amazed, and a girl whispered, ”Then what are you implying?”

”Still don’t get it?” Li Chuan sneered, ”No doubt, these people were definitely invited by Huo Qianfang. Who is Huo Qianfang? She’s a big shot in the entertainment industry with extensive connections. Only she could have managed to bring in so many celebrities!”

The crowd suddenly realized and nodded their heads, all agreeing that Li Chuan’s explanation was the real reason. As Li Chuan said, these stars belonged to different agencies and couldn’t possibly have been invited by Su Yang alone. Thus, it must have been Huo Qianfang using her influence to get these people!

”Huo Qianfang is really good to this Su Yang. Inviting so many people, think of all the favors she’s used up! These favors, they all have to be repaid!”

”What do you mean good, that’s called Su Yang relying on a woman to survive, eating soft rice well!” a young man angrily said, ”Damn, a man should not let a woman step forward and do these things, isn’t it shameful?”

”I guess, the cost of this event tonight is also covered by Huo Qianfang. This Su Yang, he’s not the wealthy type back at school, how good could he possibly be!”

”Eating soft rice to this extent, truly is unprecedented and unlikely to be seen again!”

The crowd kept cursing nonstop, utterly detesting Su Yang. Eating soft rice, and from such a top-tier beauty at that, and what’s more, this beauty is so good to Su Yang, making many people feel aggrieved.

The man in the suit did not pay attention to the crowd’s secretive whispers. He didn’t bother to argue with these people and directly led them into the venue.

The moment they entered the venue, everyone was confused, or rather, they were stunned.

The venue, compared to Young Master Lin’s venue, wasn’t much different. However, looking at this venue and then recalling Young Master Lin’s, everyone felt there was an immense gap.

That feeling, it was as if Young Master Lin’s venue was nouveau riche style, a display of vulgar ostentation, stacked up with money.

While Su Yang’s venue belonged to a class of cultivated, meticulously crafted elegance and nobility, feeling even higher-end.

The former could be achieved with money alone, but the latter wasn’t just about spending money; it demanded meticulous design, cultural literacy, and cultural richness.

Seeing this venue, everyone was so shocked that they were speechless.

Even Li Chuan, who was usually harsh and critical, was now speechless, not knowing what to say anymore.

They had all intended to come and ridicule, ready to start scolding as soon as they entered. But seeing this venue, they didn’t even know how to begin their criticisms.

This venue was arranged too well. Compared to it, Young Master Lin’s seemed hardly worth looking at.

”Everyone, shall we enter the venue now?” the man in the suit smiled lightly.

Only then did the crowd snap back to reality, following the man in the suit. They looked at each other, their faces turning red with repressed emotions, but they really couldn’t find a fault, they didn’t even know what to criticize.

Li Chuan, who was a leader among them, had been holding back for a long time and finally asked, ”Um, this... how much did this venue setup cost?”

”Three billion,” the man in the suit answered without turning his head.

Plop plop plop, a number of people collapsed to the ground, many unable to even stand anymore.

Li Chuan’s eyes nearly bulged out of their sockets, and he grabbed the man in the suit’s arm, almost yelling, ”Three... three billion?”

Behind him, people looked at each other, everyone was frightened by the figure.

”Yes, three billion, what about it?” the man in the suit asked curiously.

Li Chuan, as if he had seized something incriminating, was overjoyed and hurriedly said, ”Hey, you’re bluffing, you really should prepare a draft first, right? This place, three billion? Three billion? Three billion?”

The crowd burst into laughter, thinking carefully after the shock, it seemed an impossible thing. This place, costing three billion to build? Is the venue made of pure gold, or is the stage pure gold?

Therefore, at this moment, everyone felt that the man in the suit was bluffing. Even the things he said outside must have been bluffs too.

The man in the suit remained calm, he smiled and pushed away Li Chuan’s hand, saying, ”There’s nothing to it, three billion, I actually quoted a low number, considering many items belong personally to Mr. Su and didn’t cost money. If it weren’t for Mr. Su’s personal belongings, it wouldn’t have been possible to set this up for just three billion!”

”Are you trying to deceive the dead by burning paper money at graves?” Li Chuan glared and said, ”Still three billion? Come on, explain to me, where in this venue did you spend three billion? Come on, tell us, explain it to us!”

Everyone stared at the man in the suit, feeling that it was impossible. So, at this moment, they all felt like they had caught Su Yang out, eager to immediately go ridicule him.

The man in the suit was still very calm, he looked around at everyone and spoke softly, ”Have you all noticed the spherical lights above our heads?”

People looked up, nodding their heads, one young man said, ”These light spheres are pretty, the light is soft and not harsh. But don’t tell me, these light spheres cost a billion!”

The man in the suit smiled, ”These light spheres are the Luminous Pearls that Mr. Su arranged to be delivered here in advance, all part of his private collection, usually not even displayed in exhibitions. Just one Luminous Pearl is worth upwards of ten million, maybe even more expensive. There are a total of one hundred and thirty Luminous Pearls used here, if we assume ten million each, just the Luminous Pearls alone are worth thirteen billion!”
