Chapter 175: Opening of the Chen Yu Grand Hotel

Yunzhou, Zhou Family.

Zhou Yun’s room.

“Bang!”

Zhou Yun, in a fit of rage, smashed a teacup onto the floor. It shattered into pieces.

As the third Young Master of the Zhou Family, he naturally had his own sources.

Naturally, he knew that Xu Shaochen wasn’t harmed at all in the shooting. The only consequence was a tiny piece of gauze on his forehead to stop the bleeding.

“Xu Shaochen! What a lucky Xu Shaochen! You narrowly escaped death this time; I want to see if your luck will hold up next time.”

Zhou Yun gritted his teeth as he spoke. As long as Xu Shaochen was alive, Zhou Yun wouldn’t let him off.

Of course, he wouldn’t make a move anytime soon. After all, he wasn’t foolish enough to act recklessly.

However, what Zhou Yun didn’t realize was that when the time came for him to act, he would already be marked for death in Xu Shaochen’s eyes.

That’s why he’ll never have another opportunity to make a move.

………………

At Xu Shaochen’s request.

Not a single website or newspaper in Jiangzhou reported on the shooting.

Several new media websites tried to use the news to attract traffic, but by the next day, they were all shut down.

As a result, Xu Shaochen managed to cover up the shooting without causing any ripples.

Of course, the news still circulated within certain circles.

After all, with an incident that big, it’s impossible for no information to leak out.

Because of this, Xu Shaochen’s Phone was nearly ringing off the hook lately.

The calls were all from people concerned about his injury. Of course, whether their concern was genuine or fake is a matter of perspective.

The shooting happened on Thursday. Xu Shaochen didn’t go to school on Friday.

However, during that time, there was a small incident where Xie Wei called to tell him that Zhang Qingsong, that pesky fly, had dropped out.

As for where he went, Xu Shaochen didn’t care. After all, he was just a minor character.

Today is Saturday, the opening day of Chen Yu Grand Hotel.

Due to the publicity, which included inviting Zhou Xue to perform, the opening event was crowded with people. Many of Zhou Xue’s fans had come.

Even those who weren’t Zhou Xue’s fans came to join the excitement upon seeing the large crowd.

From 8 a.m. onwards, luxury cars started arriving one after another.

Unlike the previous opening of the Chen Yu Company, many people had been keeping an eye on Xu Shaochen’s movements this time.

So, regardless of whether Xu Shaochen extended an invitation, many came to offer their congratulations on the opening of the Chen Yu Grand Hotel.

The entire street was lined with all sorts of luxury cars, to the point where traffic police were called to maintain order.

One by one, prominent figures from Jiangzhou entered the hotel.

This scene dazzled everyone’s eyes.

“Damn! Is this a hotel opening, or a luxury car exhibition?!”

“These cars are nothing. What’s important are the owners of these cars. I just saw Ye Huaiyuan.”

“I saw Sun Hai too. So many big shots are here! What kind of place is this Chen Yu Grand Hotel?”

“There’s a Chen Yu Company too. I heard Sun Hai attended their last opening as well. Could there be a connection? Both are named Chen Yu.”

“It’s possible…”

Everyone was speculating about Xu Shaochen’s identity.

At this moment, Xu Shaochen was inside the hotel entertaining the guests who came to offer their congratulations.

“Mr. Xu, congratulations! You simply must get me the highest-level membership card!”

“Indeed! We want it too. From now on, we’ll be spending at your place.”

“Mr. Xu, wishing you great fortune on your opening day…”

One by one, they lined up to offer their congratulations and shake hands with Xu Shaochen. Each one was tactful enough not to ask about the still-visible scars on Xu Shaochen’s hands.

After all, everyone here had a certain level of understanding.

“Hahaha. Thank you! It’s an honor for you all to come. Today we’re offering a grand opening discount. Eat and drink to your heart’s content!”

Xu Shaochen returned their congratulations warmly. Although he hadn’t invited some of them, since they were here, it wouldn’t be polite to chase them away.

“Shaochen-gege.”

Du Feng also arrived, bringing his daughter Du Ruyan along.

Du Ruyan was simply dressed in a white short-sleeved shirt and capri pants, giving her a pure and innocent look.

But, of course, the extraordinary assets on her chest made one worry that her clothes might burst.

“Ruyan, did you come especially to congratulate me on the opening?”

Xu Shaochen first nodded at Du Feng in greeting before starting a conversation with Du Ruyan.

“Not really! I’m here because I’m a fan of Zhou Xue. You have to get me a few autographs later.” Du Ruyan pouted her lips in a rather proud manner.

Xu Shaochen couldn’t help but laugh. He hadn’t expected that he was being overly sentimental. This girl was actually a fangirl.

Zhou Xue and her manager Liu Li were standing in an inconspicuous corner, observing this scene.

“Half of Jiangzhou has shown up.”

Liu Li remarked with some emotion.

The previous price-raising incident had already made her and Zhou Xue realize that Xu Shaochen was not a simple person.

But today, they realized that he was not just “not simple”… he was truly extraordinary.

Thinking back on what they had done before, it now seemed utterly laughable.

Soon after, Zhou Xue took the stage to sing. She finished after performing a few songs since this wasn’t a concert.

After Zhou Xue’s performance, Xu Shaochen was dragged backstage by Du Ruyan to get some autographs.

“Xiaoxue, I’ve come all the way from the Capital. How about you join me for dinner tonight?”

When Xu Shaochen and Du Ruyan arrived backstage, they saw a suave-looking young man holding a bouquet of flowers, trying to charm Zhou Xue.

Liu Li stood off to the side, helplessly watching the situation.

The young man was Ye Haoming, a wildly popular youth idol and the son of a Shengshi Entertainment Company director.

Recently, he had been pursuing Zhou Xue relentlessly. To Liu Li, this was a fantastic opportunity, but Zhou Xue just didn’t agree.

“Mr. Xu.”

When Liu Li noticed Xu Shaochen’s entrance, her spirits lifted, and she quickly greeted him.

“Mr. Xu.”

Zhou Xue also hurriedly stood up to greet him, showing him great respect.

Ye Haoming glanced at Xu Shaochen and frowned. Then, his eyes fell on Du Ruyan standing beside Xu Shaochen, and they instantly lit up.

To hell with Zhou Xue, an ungrateful woman!

This young girl in front of him was the real catch, with both looks and class—especially her extraordinary assets, which were rarely seen.

“Hello, beautiful. My name is Ye Haoming. May I be your friend?”

Ye Haoming gave what he thought was a charming smile and approached Du Ruyan, speaking to her with a confident tone.

He was confident in himself. He was famous throughout the country, and with his looks and fame, no woman could resist him.

Especially a young girl like this, who was easy to deceive. Most of his fans were just like her—he could easily take them to bed.
