Ultimate Supreme Soldier King

Chapter 1388 1383: The Former Ugly Duckling

Zheng Xue was much calmer than Shelley; she knew this matter couldn't be solved with just money.After Shelley finished speaking, she stood up and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, I believe you all understand the impact of this incident. On behalf of my company, Huaihuang Entertainment, I promise you that as long as you keep today's events confidential, our company is willing to give each person present an additional 100,000 yuan. However, you will need to sign an agreement to ensure non-disclosure of today's happenings, or else our company reserves the right to pursue you for any damages caused by leaks..."

Employing both soft and hard tactics, Zheng Xue, as the deputy general manager of Huaihuang Entertainment, had truly mastered these approaches to perfection.

However, not everyone was concerned about Zheng Xue's threats, like Zhang Feng, who valued Su Chen's perspective.

Dai Yifei's affection for Su Chen was obvious to anyone who wasn't blind, and Zhang Feng didn't want to risk provoking that.

After all, he had previously suffered losses because of Su Chen at Li Lin's place.

If he had known that Su Chen was acquainted with the people in this private room, he would never have dared to show off.

However, the Englishman named Charlie seemed unclear about the immense influence Su Chen actually wielded.

After Zhang Feng backed down, Charlie remained extremely resolute.

Being a citizen of England and an employee of the Royal Bank of England, what could they possibly do to him?

"Huaxia people, your abilities are disappointing. I'll reconsider the cooperation with your company!" Charlie said with a grim face.

Wei Yicheng's expression turned extremely unpleasant all of a sudden. He had made every effort to facilitate this partnership, and its abrupt end would weaken both his authority and his say within the company.

This was absolutely not something he wanted to see.

So without hesitation, he planned to step forward to retain Charlie.

But before he could speak, Zhang Feng, standing beside him, held him back: "Don't meddle."

His voice was calm yet indisputable, leaving Wei Yicheng somewhat unwilling: "Young Master, this deal is very important for our company."

"But..." Wei Yicheng tried to argue.

However, Zhang Feng's sharp gaze stopped him in his tracks.

He wanted to see how Su Chen intended to handle this matter; from Li Lin's dread, it was evident that Su Chen had a background that made Li Lin fearful.

Still, Zhang Feng had doubts if Su Chen was genuinely powerful or just seemingly so.

Merely making Li Lin back off wasn't enough to convince Zhang Feng fully.

However, being prudent as always, he wouldn't let himself be in a vulnerable position.

So in Li Lin's private room, Zhang Feng had retreated.

But now, Zhang Feng was curiously choosing to observe; how would Su Chen resolve this matter?

According to his understanding, this guy named Charlie came from the Royal Bank Group of England.

It was an overwhelmingly large company, incomparable to the current scale of Xianfeng Group.

This is why Xianfeng Group attached such importance, sending a senior vice president to personally assist in resolving Charlie's dilemma.

If it weren't for Zhang Feng's appearance and intervention, tonight, in order to win Charlie's favor and in hopes of solidifying a partnership, Wei Yicheng might really have engaged in a confrontation with Su Chen.

"What's up with this guy?"

Hearing Charlie speak English aggressively towards Wei Yicheng and Zhang Feng and their group, Su Chen was a bit curious.

In fact, up to this point, Su Chen had yet to understand the exact cause of the whole event.

His focus was on Dai Yifei, not anyone else.

Zhang Feng and others were not even on his radar.

"This person just insulted Dai Ling," a quick-mouthed girl nearby said.

"Dai Ling?" Su Chen was momentarily stunned, but he quickly realized that the Dai Ling mentioned should be Dai Yifei.

"How did he insult her just now?" Su Chen asked calmly.

Although Su Chen wasn't particularly moved by Dai Yifei's fiery enthusiasm, this didn't mean others could bully her in front of him.

The girl quietly recounted the events to Su Chen, revealing that the cause was jealousy from one of Dai Yifei's classmates.

The jealousy among women could arguably be the most venomous existence in the world.

No matter Dai Yifei's past, she had now achieved success and become a dazzling star.

This was something no one could erase.

Moreover, Qiao Jiaojiao's claims that Dai Yifei underwent cosmetic surgery and relied on unspoken rules to rise to the top were rumors bordering on personal defamation.

Just as Shelley mentioned, he fully had grounds to sue Qiao Jiaojiao for defamation against Dai Yifei, demanding compensation for personal damage and more.

When Su Chen's gaze swept over Qiao Jiaojiao, she couldn't help but shiver; from his eyes, she saw something like a prehistoric beast.

It felt like being targeted by a wild animal, making her whole body tense up, almost unable to breathe under Su Chen's imposing aura.

But Su Chen quickly withdrew his forcefulness.

This Qiao Jiaojiao was merely an ordinary woman, and Su Chen's aura could completely intimidate her to lose control.

But what use would that be?

Qiao Jiaojiao's arrogance stemmed from having an extraordinary boyfriend.

Thus, she could occupy a high ground, looking down upon all of Dai Yifei's achievements, thinking she only climbed up due to her altered looks.

During their school days, she and Qin Keren were considered the two flowers of the class.

Although she wasn't quite willing to admit it, back then, Qin Keren could genuinely be described as goddess-like.

Unlike her, Qin Keren was scrupulous, never allowing any boy to win her over, which only accentuated her noble presence.

Such a woman might make Qiao Jiaojiao jealous, but she seldom expressed it openly.

Even so, during their school days, she and Qin Keren were constantly at odds.

The two flowers were often compared, which possibly contributed to Qiao Jiaojiao's dislike for Qin Keren.

But, back then, Dai Yifei was known as Dai Ling.

At that time, Dai Ling was merely an ugly duckling, although she was close to Qin Keren, Qiao Jiaojiao never paid any attention to her, but several years passed in a blink.

The once ugly duckling had become a Heavenly Queen goddess, how could Qiao Jiaojiao not feel sour about it?

Although seeing Qin Keren date a common guy made her happy, things don't appear that way now, do they?

From the beginning, no one in the private room gave Su Chen a second thought, but now it seemed, Su Chen truly kept a low profile; even the foreign helper invited by that foreigner had gone dormant, was that something just anyone could accomplish?

Charlie felt his woman's grip tighten on his arm, and the gentlemanly pride within him compelled him to stand up without hesitation.

"Is intimidating a woman like this something a gentleman would do?"
