"Mr. Zhang, this one's for you first!" Xu Feng downed the drink in his glass, "Have a great time, I'll leave you be." Xu Feng bowed slightly to Zhang Menglong and then left the VIP area on that level. If Lu Xuchao was merely shocked upon learning that the hotel belonged to Zhang Menglong, now he was practically soul-shaken to the core. Zhang Menglong was actually the chairman of Unicorn Technology! Initially, standing before Zhang Menglong, he had felt a sense of superiority, but now, just a word from Zhang Menglong could potentially get him fired the next day for entering the company with his left foot before the right. He believed that if Zhang Menglong wanted, he had a thousand ways to make him unable to stay in the company! "Mr. Zhang, I hadn't thought..." At this moment, Lu Xuchao's heart was overwhelmed by fear and regret. All these years in university and he'd missed a huge ship! No, not a ship, a friggin' Galactic Battleship! However, Zhang Menglong wasn't so petty as to use his connections to get back at Lu Xuchao over such a minor squabble, because he never really took Lu Xuchao seriously to begin with. Lu Xuchao had always been silently competing with Zhang Menglong, but it was completely one-sided. "Tsk tsk, which Mr. Zhang could it be, indeed it's you, the tycoon!" Amidst a hearty laughter, a group of people walked into the VIP area. "Principal Wang!" Everyone present recognized the young man who had just walked in; he was also at this hotel, and from his tone, he seemed to know Zhang Menglong. "Ah!! Ling Ge!" A group of fangirls screamed. Though not as popular as the current traffic stars, Ling Ge was undeniably a top-tier star among the younger generation of actors, still highly popular among girls. Wang Ling didn't really care about anyone else; in his eyes, only those whose wealth and background were equal to his own were worthy of being his true friends. As for Ling Ge, he was just quietly following behind Wang Ling. "Principal, what brings you here?" Zhang Menglong and Wang Ling bumped fists. "Just came to see which big shot was so generous as to book the entire Lofitte Hotel tonight, and seeing it's you, I'm not surprised at all." Wang Ling seemed still to be holding a grudge from the day Zhang Menglong had smashed his car worth tens of millions on him. "Just hanging out with some college friends today, took the rare chance to have some fun!" "Yeah, you've got 'happy' written all over your face!" Wang Ling was extremely shrewd; he could tell that Zhang Menglong's mood wasn't actually that great. "Oh, he has gone back to Mingzhu City!" "Then why aren't you going back?" "Hehe, I'm not planning to go back!" Wang Ling said with a smile, "I plan to move my business to Jiangnan City. As you know, the development here is getting better and better, especially in the e-commerce and internet sectors. I want to make some achievements based on my own skills, so I won't just be labeled as a spoiled second-generation rich kid." "Hahaha, playing less with a couple of internet celebrities is better than anything!" "No way!" Wang Ling laughed, "These are the only hobbies I have in life. By the way, I know quite a few socialites. Would you like me to introduce you to some?" "Forget it, socialites? Just a bunch of women brainwashed by budget shopping, how could they catch my eye?" "Hahaha, you are amazing, Mr. Zhang!" Wang Ling also heard about the latest hot gossip, "Alright, I'm heading back now. If you're free, why not come over to my place tomorrow?" "Sure!" Now that Zhang Menglong was in his senior year, he barely had any classes left, and since he didn't need to look for a job, why not? "OK, it's settled then. I'll send you the location tomorrow, and show you some cool stuff that will definitely blow your mind!" "Eh, I hope it's not some messy stuff? I am a respectable person!" "Get lost!" Wang Ling laughed and cursed as he left the venue. After Wang Ling left, several more groups of people arrived. They were either some company's CEO or some internet-famous stars—the place was almost turning into a major high society mingle spot. With all the abundant food, no one had the appetite to continue eating. After sending off the last group of guests, Zhang Menglong was somewhat exhausted. Had he known it would be so troublesome, why bother paying? The money just circulated and ended right back in his own pocket; not a cent was spent, and yet here he was, busy being a socialite, really not worth it. "Zhang Menglong, you keep things so under wraps!" "We underestimated you!" his roommates cast threatening glances at him. Zhang Menglong spread his hands, "I originally wanted to keep a low profile, but my strength doesn't allow it!" "Are you even speaking human language? Keep a low profile? When you, Mr. Zhang, paid for everyone at the event, where was your hint of low profile?" "Ah!" Sun Yulei sighed, "Perhaps in the eyes of the wealthy, the ultimate low profile is just to this degree..."
