by MarineTLChapter 101: Duan Guxiang’s Invitation!
Duan Guxiang?
That small business owner from the west suburban car show?
“Yeah, I remember. What’s up?” Shen Fei replied, confused.
“He wants to gather some people tonight at Junyue Pavilion, and asked me to bring you and Yuan Tai along to join the fun!” Jiang Tiancheng admitted.
Junyue Pavilion?
The name seemed familiar.
That place was a venue specifically for the second-generation rich.
In his previous life, Shen Fei had never been to Junyue Pavilion because it had closed down after a certain incident.
That incident involved a few government officials’ children getting into trouble.
After the incident, Junyue Pavilion became the target of public outcry and was forced to shut down.
“Fei Ge?” Jiang Tiancheng, seeing that Shen Fei hadn’t responded, asked with a puzzled tone.
“Huh?” Shen Fei snapped back to reality. “What’s the event about?”
“Not much, just a bunch of second-generation rich people eating and drinking! I think Old Duan wants to get to know you, otherwise, he wouldn’t have specifically asked me to bring you along!” Jiang Tiancheng chuckled lightly, then became serious.
“However, Fei Ge, it would be good for you to go and expand your network! These government officials’ kids may not seem capable on normal days, but when something happens, they can still be of help!”
Shen Fei paused when he heard this.
Honestly, he didn’t want to attend the gathering.
As for getting to know those government officials’ kids?
No need!
Wouldn’t it be more useful to directly meet their fathers?
But the one who invited him was Duan Guxiang.
Considering that Duan had given them a discount of several hundred thousand at the car show a few days ago, Shen Fei felt obligated to attend.
“I see. What time does it start?” Shen Fei asked.
“The event is pretty casual, no need to be strict. Just show up by 9:30, it’s not going to get lively until around 10!” Jiang Tiancheng replied.
“Alright, I’ll go then!” Shen Fei said.
“Great! See you tonight, Fei Ge!” Jiang Tiancheng grinned.
“Anything else?” Shen Fei asked.
“Fei Ge, thank you!” Jiang Tiancheng said earnestly.
“What’s wrong?” Shen Fei was puzzled. He hadn’t really done anything lately!
“It’s about Jiang Shengcai! If it weren’t for your reminder, that woman, Cao Qiuyan, would have succeeded!”
Jiang Tiancheng exhaled, saying in one breath, “Jiang Shengcai checked the past projects, and wow, 25 of the engineering projects didn’t meet the minimum standards, and 10 of them were government projects!”
“If we hadn’t discovered it early, once it was exposed, the Jiang family would have been doomed!”
After hearing Jiang Tiancheng’s words, Shen Fei wasn’t surprised.
“So what’s your dad going to do about it?”
“What else can he do? The old man already said that whatever needs to be compensated will be, and any apologies that need to be made, he’ll make. Everything that’s wrong will be acknowledged and dealt with. As for Cao Qiuyan, she’s already been arrested! Jiang Shengcai is going to suffer a huge loss this time. It’s like 20 years of effort down the drain in one night!”
Jiang Tiancheng sighed deeply.
“Just consider it as paying the price to avoid worse consequences! Otherwise, the result would have been even worse!” Shen Fei remarked.
In his previous life, after the Jiang family went through a series of events, their end was truly tragic.
Some died, others ended up homeless.
“Yes, the old man thinks that way too. That’s why we’re selling everything to compensate for the breaches of contract! Speaking of Jiang Shengcai, it really makes me angry! The man has no ability and just relies on his grandfather’s reputation! No wonder Cao Qiuyan took advantage of him! He’s completely clueless. If it were me, I’d have taken him down!”
Jiang Tiancheng was visibly upset.
“Alright, who’s out there trying to ruin their own family? By the way, how’s your grandpa doing?” Shen Fei asked with concern.
“Grandpa’s obviously upset! He took some heart-saving pills, but it’s nothing serious!” Jiang Tiancheng explained, his tone serious.
“Fei Ge, I can’t even count how many times you’ve saved the Jiang family! This is a huge favor, one that the Jiang family can’t repay in decades! Grandpa says the same thing!”
“It’s nothing! The Jiang family is fortunate!” Shen Fei replied, feeling a bit embarrassed.
He only helped the Jiang family because of his friendship with Jiang Tiancheng, it was nothing major.
If it weren’t for that, he wouldn’t have been involved in the Jiang family’s business.
“Yes! The Jiang family is fortunate to have a benefactor like you, Fei Ge! In this lifetime, I don’t respect anyone except you, Fei Ge! From now on, whatever you ask me to do, I’ll do it without question!”
Jiang Tiancheng said seriously and firmly.
“Alright, stop getting all sentimental. Just relax! Anyway, I’m hanging up now!” Shen Fei teased.
Without waiting for Jiang Tiancheng to reply, he hung up the phone.
Seeing Shen Fei hang up, Han Xinyan looked puzzled.
“Why did President Jiang contact you?”
“Remember Duan Guxiang? The guy who gave us a discount of several hundred thousand at the car show?”
Shen Fei said casually.
“Hmm? That young guy? I remember!” Han Xinyan replied.
“Yeah! He asked Tiancheng to bring me to Junyue Pavilion to join the fun, and Tiancheng also suggested I go, using it as an opportunity to meet more people!” Shen Fei explained the conversation to her truthfully.
Han Xinyan was stunned when she heard this.
Junyue Pavilion.
She had grown up in Shenzhen, so she obviously knew what kind of place that was.
But she still smiled and said, “You should go. After all, Duan’s family gave us such a big discount, we should show some respect! Besides, this is a good opportunity for you to expand your network! You should make the most of it!”
“Are you not worried about what might happen there? Not afraid I’ll be caught up in something messy?” Shen Fei joked.
“We’ll just leave if it gets too chaotic. No need to add any trouble for the other side!” Han Xinyan replied after a brief silence.
“Mom, what does ‘wind flowers and moonlight’ mean? It sounds delicious!” the little girl asked, looking at Han Xinyan confusedly.
“…You little foodie!” Han Xinyan didn’t know how to explain, so she changed the topic.
“Sweetheart, ‘wind flowers and moonlight’ refers to things that happen when Daddy does something inappropriate towards Mommy. But you should trust Daddy, because in this life, Daddy only cares about you and Mommy, nothing else!”
Shen Fei quickly reassured.
“Tease!” Han Xinyan playfully glared at Shen Fei, but couldn’t help but smile.
…
As night deepened.
At Junyue Pavilion.
Luxurious cars were lined up neatly in the parking lot.
Hu Yuantai and Jiang Tiancheng were already waiting at the entrance of Junyue Pavilion.
After Shen Fei parked his car, he joined them.
Such places weren’t accessible without someone familiar with it.
“Fei Ge!”
The two greeted Shen Fei with gratitude and affection.
After all, without Shen Fei, they would probably have ended up in jail or seriously injured.
“Fei Ge, Old Duan is being cornered by someone, he can’t get away!” Jiang Tiancheng explained.
“Don’t worry, I’m just here to join the fun,” Shen Fei smiled casually.
The three of them went to the fifth floor of Junyue Pavilion.
“Fei Ge, you finally came!” Duan Guxiang sighed with relief when he saw Shen Fei, quickly pushing away the person who had been holding him up and walking toward the door.
The man who was pushed aside looked slightly surprised, then hurriedly followed Duan Guxiang.
“This guy looks unfamiliar. But since Mr. Zhang himself came downstairs to greet him, and Duan Ge was this flustered, he must be a big shot!” The man slowly approached Shen Fei, staring at him with a playful expression.
