Chapter 958: Chapter 339: The Korean Has-Been Celebrity

Wang Yuwei’s fake socialite life might be coming to an end. There are too many rich kids among the onlookers. Once they post her photo in their social circles, the whole Beijing rich kids’ circle will basically know her fake identity.

Of course, if she still wants to pose as a fake socialite to deceive people, she’ll have to go to a remote area.

However, her goal in posing as a fake socialite is to make money and reel in rich guys. If she’s lucky enough to marry into a wealthy family, even better.

And her ultimate goal in doing all this is to enjoy the bustling and luxurious life of big cities like Beijing and Hai City. Even if she marries a rich man in a remote area, she can’t frequent high-end places like she does now, and that’s not the ending she wants.

Yang Chen didn’t want too many photos and videos taken of him by diners, so he invited Wang Nianming to chat in a private room.

Before leaving, Yang Chen instructed Wang En Hui that fake socialites splitting bills shouldn’t be entertained at Tang Pavilion in the future, unless they eat quickly after ordering. We can’t have groups coming to take photos and the food getting cold.

Otherwise, people might misunderstand and think Tang Pavilion serves leftovers to guests.

Yang Chen went to the parking lot, and Li Yunxi was already waiting for him by his car.

"Have they all left?" Yang Chen asked.

Li Yunxi nodded and said, "They’ve all left. Sigh... I didn’t expect fake socialites to be like this. I thought it was just vanity, but there’s actually an element of fraud."

Yang Chen: "They don’t have money to begin with. Many people split the cost of luxury brands to make money. Otherwise, why make an already not-so-well-off life even worse?"

The two got in the car.

The weather is cold, so they warmed up the car for a while before leaving.

Li Yunxi suddenly realized something and quickly asked, "Bro, who are you really? How do you know Wang Nianming?"

Yang Chen: "My second cousin introduced us."

Li Yunxi: "Come on. Your second cousin is just a security team leader at SKP. How could he have such influence? I can accept him affecting the merchants inside SKP. But knowing Wang Nianming and getting the manager at Tang Pavilion to comp such a lavish lunch, you expect me to believe that?"

Yang Chen: "Well, if you don’t believe me, that’s beyond my control. I told you the truth before. I said I own a community, that I have shares in the Bulgari Hotel, and you didn’t believe me. I also said SKP is mine, and you still believe. Just now I said Tang Pavilion is mine, and you still don’t believe. So I had to make up a second cousin. Otherwise, how could a ride-hailing driver reasonably enjoy these privileges?"

Li Yunxi: "What? You’re telling the truth? You’re not just making it up? I thought you were just making things up! But how could a ride-hailing driver own these properties? Oh, or should I say, if you’re that amazing, why drive for a ride-hailing service?"

Yang Chen: "I also said, I have too many businesses to manage alone, so I just hire professional managers. Being in my twenties, I can’t just lie in bed counting money, can I? Working is not an option, won’t happen this lifetime. The only option is to drive for a ride-hailing service or deliver food, just like that."

Li Yunxi looked at Yang Chen, utterly at a loss for words.

The car had warmed up enough, and they could drive off.

"Shall I take you back to the hotel now?" Yang Chen asked.

Li Yunxi pondered for a few seconds and said, "I’ve never seen a presidential suite that costs hundreds of thousands a night. Can you take me to see yours?"

Yang Chen didn’t think much of it, smiled, and nodded.

Soon, they arrived at the Haiyalantis Hotel room.

Li Yunxi looked at the unbeatable night view through the three-sided glass walls and exclaimed, "Wow, Beijing’s night is truly beautiful. Being rich is so nice. Over there, that’s Shichahai, right?"

Yang Chen nodded and said, "Yes! That’s Shichahai."

As they were chatting, someone knocked on the door.

Yang Chen went to open the door, and manager Ge Zhengkang brought SKP staff to deliver items to the room.

Ge Zhengkang: "President Yang, do you need a night snack?"

Yang Chen: "No need! Aren’t you going home to spend Christmas Eve with your family?"

Ge Zhengkang: "It’s a foreign holiday, I don’t celebrate it."

Yang Chen: "Do you usually work late like this?"

Ge Zhengkang: "Of course not. Haha... Today President Yang is here, so I have to perform a bit. Normally, I get off work on time, and without special circumstances, I wouldn’t be working this late."

"Haha..." Yang Chen laughed heartily.

Ge Zhengkang seemed quite sincere. Yang Chen nodded and said, "Alright! I understand. You don’t need to mind me, go home and be with your family."

Ge Zhengkang: "Alright! Then I’ll head home first. If President Yang needs anything, just call the front desk. We’re on 24/7 standby."

Yang Chen nodded, watched Ge Zhengkang leave, then closed the door.

Li Yunxi asked with curiosity, "Why is he so polite to you? Don’t tell me Haiyalantis Hotel is also yours."

Yang Chen: "Not entirely. I’m just the controlling shareholder, along with a few other shareholders."

Li Yunxi gasped in surprise. Who would have thought an ordinary ride-hailing driver could have so many investments and industries?

Yang Chen stretched and said, "I’m a bit tired. Can you help me wash some jujubes?"

Li Yunxi was taken aback and then nervously asked, "What? You... you really want me to wash them?"

Yang Chen nodded and sat down.

Although Yang Chen had a strong recovery ability, he had been going non-stop all day, and now he felt a bit tired, so he sat down.

Li Yunxi shook nervously and said, "Why are you doing this all of a sudden? I’m... I’m not ready."

Yang Chen: "Huh? It’s just washing some jujubes. What’s there to prepare for? Here, if you help me wash the jujubes, I’ll write off the money you owe me."
