Chapter 234: Kneel Down and Polish My Shoes!

Dong Zhenyu smiled calmly.

“Come, I’ll show you around,” said Zhu Chao.

Then, Zhu Chao led Dong Zhenyu into the club.

At this moment, Xiao Chang’an immediately came forward.

“Young Master Dong, Young Master Zhu, hello.”

Seeing Xiao Chang’an, Zhu Chao frowned slightly and asked, “You are…?”

“I’m Xiao Chang’an. We met once at the Jiangnan Business Association gathering. My father was having an animated conversation with your father at the time,” Xiao Chang’an said with a fawning smile.

“Xiao Chang’an… Oh, I remember somewhat,” Zhu Chao nodded.

After that, several other rich second-generation heirs came forward to greet Zhu Chao and Dong Zhenyu.

As soon as these two appeared, they immediately became the center of attention. The other rich heirs present all wanted to get close to them and become familiar faces.

Although these rich heirs all had strong family backgrounds, they couldn’t compare to these two.

After all, one was the son of Jiangnan’s richest man, and the other was the son of an underground boss.

Surrounded by the crowd of rich heirs, Dong Zhenyu and Zhu Chao entered the club.

“The first floor is a buffet restaurant, and from the second floor up are leisure and entertainment facilities,” Zhu Chao said as he directly led Dong Zhenyu upstairs.

…

In the buffet restaurant, Fat Liu and Li Bingyan heard the commotion from behind, turned around, and saw Dong Zhenyu and Zhu Chao.

“Who are those two? Why are they surrounded by so many people? Like celebrities,” Fat Liu asked puzzledly.

Li Bingyan, however, recognized Dong Zhenyu’s face and exclaimed in surprise, “Damn! Even Dong Zhenyu is here.”

“Dong Zhenyu? Seems like I’ve heard this name somewhere,” Fat Liu said with furrowed brows.

“He’s the son of Jiangnan’s newly crowned richest man!” Li Bingyan said.

“Jiangnan’s richest man? Doesn’t that mean… they’re even richer than Tang Xiaorou’s family?” Fat Liu glanced at Fang Yu and said.

“You can’t compare like that. The rich list mainly looks at individual corporate assets, linked to recent stock prices and business development momentum.”

“Families like Tang Xiaorou’s are old money with strong foundations and many family enterprises. Their assets are solid, and their actual financial strength is definitely far stronger than Dong Zhiwei’s,” Li Bingyan explained.

“That impressive?” Fat Liu said with wide eyes.

“Hehe, Tang Xiaorou is the boss’s woman, if she weren’t impressive, would the boss be interested…” Li Bingyan hadn’t finished speaking when he was cut off by Fang Yu’s cold glance.

“Just kidding, I was just joking,” Li Bingyan said with an awkward smile.

Just as Fang Yu was about to say something, his phone rang in his pocket.

Fang Yu took out his phone and saw it was an unknown number.

However, since his old phone broke and he got a new one, many numbers hadn’t been saved in his contacts.

“I’ll take this call.”

Fang Yu stood up, walked out of the buffet restaurant, and went outside the club.

“Fang Yu, this is Xia Xiaoying,” the caller said after connecting.

“What’s the matter?” Fang Yu asked.

“Regarding the gene laboratory, I’ve collected relevant intelligence,” Xia Xiaoying said.

“Have you found its exact location?” Fang Yu asked.

“…Not quite there yet, but I’ve investigated the movements of several genetically modified humans. These people departed from different locations but all passed through one particular point.”

“That point is located in a small country in Central Europe. When I sent intelligence officers to reconnoiter that location, they confirmed it was indeed a base at one time.”

“However, it’s completely empty now,” Xia Xiaoying said.

“After saying all that, there’s still no exact location,” Fang Yu said.

“But this at least proves one point: the location of the gene laboratory keeps changing. This is how they’ve managed to evade international pursuit for so many years,” Xia Xiaoying said.

“Oh, is there anything else?” Fang Yu asked.

Xia Xiaoying was silent for a moment, clearly angered by Fang Yu’s attitude.

“There is one more thing, about what you mentioned regarding someone who can master purple flame sorcery… After gathering intelligence, we did indeed find such a person.”

Hearing this, Fang Yu’s expression changed, and his aura immediately became sharp.

“Who is it, and where are they?”

…

While Fang Yu was on the phone with Xia Xiaoying, inside the club, Zhu Chao and Dong Zhenyu had finished touring the upper floors and came down to the first floor.

At this time, Li Bingyan and Fat Liu from the buffet restaurant had finished eating and were walking out.

“Want to eat something, Young Master Dong?” Zhu Chao led Dong Zhenyu toward the buffet restaurant.

Li Bingyan and Fat Liu came face to face with Zhu Chao and Dong Zhenyu.

Both parties made eye contact.

Thinking about how this person was Jiangnan’s richest man, Fat Liu became nervous, lowered his head, and tried to quickly walk out.

Zhu Chao and Dong Zhenyu were walking toward the buffet restaurant.

As they passed each other, due to his dizziness and walking too fast, Fat Liu accidentally stepped on Dong Zhenyu’s leather shoe.

A footprint appeared on the glossy black leather shoe.

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry…” Fat Liu’s face changed dramatically as he repeatedly apologized.

Dong Zhenyu looked down at the footprint on his shoe, his face turning grim.

He was a germaphobe.

What he hated most was people dirtying his things!

Beside them, Li Bingyan’s heart skipped a beat when he saw Fat Liu step on Dong Zhenyu’s shoe.

This was big trouble!

“I’m sorry, Young Master Dong! He didn’t mean to,” Li Bingyan quickly bowed and apologized.

Fat Liu also bowed and apologized.

But Dong Zhenyu’s face remained grim.

“Are you blind? The path is so wide, couldn’t you move aside when you saw us coming? How dare you step on Young Master Dong’s foot!?” Zhu Chao beside him said angrily with wide eyes.

Li Bingyan and Fat Liu kept apologizing.

“You think a simple apology is enough after dirtying my shoe?” Dong Zhenyu said coldly.

At this moment, Xiao Chang’an from behind noticed what was happening with Dong Zhenyu and quickly walked over.

Seeing Li Bingyan bowing and apologizing, Xiao Chang’an’s face was full of mockery.

Li Bingyan, oh Li Bingyan, of all people to offend, you had to offend the richest man’s son. Let’s see how you handle this!

“Young Master Dong, it was just an accident, please forgive…” Li Bingyan said with a pale face.

By now, everyone in the club had noticed what was happening with Dong Zhenyu and all turned to watch.

“What are your names?” Dong Zhenyu asked sternly with a cold expression.

The master-level bodyguard standing behind him emanated a faint pressure.

Li Bingyan and Fat Liu had never experienced such a situation and were now too scared to speak.

“Young Master Dong, I know this person. He’s Li Bingyan, the son of Li Jiang from Hongtu Industries!” Xiao Chang’an, who was watching from the side, called out loudly.

“What Hongtu Industries? Never heard of it,” Dong Zhenyu glanced at Xiao Chang’an.

“It’s just a small company, it’s normal that Young Master Dong hasn’t heard of it,” Xiao Chang’an said with a smile.

“Wasn’t this place supposed to have high standards? How did people like this get in?” Dong Zhenyu frowned and looked at Zhu Chao.

Zhu Chao was about to speak.

“This kid’s old man is obsessed with keeping up appearances and showing off. He forces himself to pay fifty thousand per month in membership fees to maintain club membership. But I guess they’ll stop paying soon because they can barely afford it anymore,” Xiao Chang’an said mockingly.

Seeing Xiao Chang’an’s ridicule from the side, Li Bingyan felt extremely frustrated, his eyes turning red.

If he could, he wanted to beat Xiao Chang’an badly!

But now, he couldn’t spare any attention for Xiao Chang’an.

Dong Zhenyu was notorious for his bad temper. If he insisted on pursuing this matter with Fat Liu, the consequences would be unthinkable.

At this moment, Fat Liu was pale and lowered his head, not daring to say another word.

“Young Master Dong, we really didn’t mean it. Please be magnanimous and forgive us this once,” Li Bingyan continued bowing and speaking humbly.

“You think apologizing is enough? Quickly kneel down and clean Young Master Dong’s shoes. Maybe then Young Master Dong might feel merciful and let you off,” Xiao Chang’an said from the side, adding fuel to the fire.

“You…” Li Bingyan couldn’t take it anymore and raised his head to glare at Xiao Chang’an.

“What? Is it so hard to kneel down and clean Young Master Dong’s shoes?” At this moment, Zhu Chao, standing next to Dong Zhenyu, said in a cold tone.
