"You still have a card? Haha, what nonsense are you talking about?"

Wang Dongyang was already irritated when he saw Jiang Chen step forward, and he immediately confronted him.

Jiang Chen didn't argue, but simply pulled out the newly obtained Black Gold Card from Wanguo Bank.

Gasp!

The room fell silent.

Everyone was staring at the card, dumbfounded.

The legendary Black Gold Card from Wanguo Bank—a symbol of billionaires.

Could it be this impressive? Surely it's fake, right?

Yes, it must be fake.

A moment later, Wang Dongyang burst into laughter, "I'm saying, Jiang Chen, you're still trying to pretend at a time like this? Where did you get this fake card from? Do you know that's illegal?"

"Right, bringing out a fake card to show off, you're planning to make us, the Dongyang, the laughingstock, aren't you?"

The Wang Family was also annoyed, shouting loudly.

Zhou Ru and Ye Jianxiong both directly scolded, "Jiang Chen, you're still messing around, get out of here immediately!"

Ye Jingyi was also infuriated. How could Jiang Chen's habit of pretending be so hard to change? How could he dare to bring out a fake card at a time like this? Doesn't he realize it could be exposed at any minute?

"Put it away quickly." Ye Jingyi directly yanked Jiang Chen harshly.

Jiang Chen gave a bitter smile, this card was real, okay? Who feels like showing off? He was just trying to help them solve their problem, wasn't he?

Just when he was about to explain, suddenly, a group of people burst into the door, led by about a dozen strong men, dressed in black suits, looking fierce, with various tattoos visible under their half-unbuttoned shirts.

Hiss-

The people inside the room instantly inhaled a cold breath of air, becoming as silent as cicadas in winter. Only then did they remember that the owner of this marine heaven they were visiting had been a big-time thug in the past, not someone the common folk could afford to provoke.

Following these strong men, another man walked in. He was tall, dressed in luxurious casual clothes, playing with two large iron marbles, clicking them together in his hand.

His face was grim, and as soon as he entered the door, he asked in a cold voice, "Who is it that dares to question the strength and reputation of my hotel? I'm Duan Yong, and in all the years I've run this establishment, no one has ever dared to speak like this!"

Duan Yong! The very boss of the marine paradise, a renowned big shot in Jinhai.

Upon hearing Duan Yong announce himself, nearly everyone in the room began to sweat profusely. Wang Dongyang was so terrified that he began to tremble, completely losing the arrogant demeanor he had held earlier.

Even Ye Jianxiong turned pale and dared not to delay, seeing the Wang Family members losing their composure, he walked forward with a wry smile and apologized, "I'm sorry, Boss Duan, I am Ye Jianxiong from the Ye Family. My son-in-law doesn't know any better. He ordered these things himself without clarifying."

While talking, beads of sweat began to form and trickle down Ye Jianxiong's face. Although he was of the Ye Family, he was merely a fringe member there. Plus, with Duan Yong's high status, a single word from him could spell disaster for him in the Ye Household.

"Ye Family? Humph!"

Duan Yong snorted coldly, glancing sideways at Ye Jianxiong, "Even Ye Jianchang from your Ye Family has to treat me politely when he sees me, and here you are, daring to question the food and reputation of my establishment? Has your Ye Family become wealthy recently, thinking that even I, Duan Yong, can be easily bullied?"

"No, not at all." Ye Jianxiong quickly waved his hands, scared, and turned his head to yell at Wang Dongyang, "Wang Dongyang, what are you staring at? Hurry up and pay the money!"

"I will, I will…"

Wang Dongyang mumbled, completely dumbfounded. He had no choice but to pay, but how could he do so? Even if he were killed, he wouldn't be able to come up with ten million in cash.

Seeing her husband in a daze, Ye Yanni next to him became anxious, tugging at Wang Dongyang, "Dongyang, didn't Jiang Chen just say he has money? Let him pay!"

Wang Dongyang was already upset when he immediately cursed, "He doesn't have a damn cent!"

"Right, he's just a live-in son-in-law, what money could he have?"

"Hmph, if he hadn't provoked our Dongyang, why would Dongyang have spent money recklessly?"

"That's right, all his fault. Now we've all been screwed by him, useless!"

In an instant, the Wang Family and Zhou Ru's accusations were once again directed at Jiang Chen, as if all these calamities had been caused by him, and Wang Dongyang had nothing to do with it.

Ye Jingyi's cheeks were burning, too. As soon as Jiang Chen had whipped out the Black Gold Card, she had felt he was showing off. Now, with everyone else talking, she felt even more humiliated and wished she could just push him away as quickly as possible.

But when Duan Yong heard the name Jiang Chen, he suddenly paused, turned his head in shock, and instantly gasped.

President Jiang?!

The incredulous Duan Yong quickly walked toward Jiang Chen, but just before he reached him, he accidentally tripped over the leg of a stool.

"Thump!" Duan Yong found himself kneeling right in front of Jiang Chen.

However, Duan Yong was quite a character; he wasn't angry, but instead, he looked up while on his knees, "Mr. Jiang... greetings to you."

At that moment, the whole private room was stunned, everyone's mouth agape in shock.

They were all thunderstruck!

Numbed to the core!

Unbelievable!

The esteemed owner of the heavenly seas, a billionaire boss, was now kneeling in front of Jiang Chen, offering greetings?

Yet Jiang Chen sat calmly in his chair, stable as a mountain.

How could this be possible?!

In his heart, Jiang Chen, however, breathed a sigh of relief. This Duan Yong was one of the big bosses of Sihai Investment, whom he'd met once at a dinner. And Duan Yong remembered his advice to keep a low profile, thus only addressing him as Mr. Jiang.

But no matter how low-key, this kneeling couldn't be kept low-key now.

Well, he'd explain it later.

Thinking this, Jiang Chen reached out his hand to lift Duan Yong up, smiling faintly, "Mr. Duan, you were tripped, weren't you?"

Duan Yong laughed, "Ha ha, yes, I'm getting old, and my steps are not as steady. But even if it were true that I came to kneel to Mr. Jiang, there would be nothing wrong with that."

Hearing the conversation between the two, everyone else finally let out a long breath of relief.

Christ, so he was tripped.

But Duan Yong was still very respectful, what was going on here?

"Mr. Duan." At this time, the more astute Wang Dongyang quickly approached, "Mr. Duan, could there be some misunderstanding? This guy is the Ye Family's son-in-law, a loser, a fraudster. Could it be he has deceived…"

"Deceive your mother's head!"

Duan Yong turned around and slapped Wang Dongyang across the face, pointing at his nose, he cursed, "Do you think I'm as blind as you? Get lost!"

Wang Dongyang, holding his face, slunk away without daring to say another word.

"Mr. Duan, no need to scold him. After all, he is my brother-in-law." Jiang Chen chuckled inwardly, but he said aloud, "Oh, right, about the bill for this table of food and drinks…"

But before he could finish, Duan Yong immediately waved a hand, "Forget it, of course it's waived, all waived!"

Instantly, the people in the room were dumbfounded again.

This table of food and drinks cost ten million, waived just like that?

Was Jiang Chen's face that influential?

Everyone in the room was watching Jiang Chen with utter shock, absolutely incredible!
