“Yeah. But I made Chase disappointed today. It may be hard to invite him next time.” Reba nodded with worry.
“What is his identity, actually?” Lena asked with curiosity.
She knew much from newspaper and Reba about the Four Young Masters in Jol city, but she had never heard Chase Lu.
“I don’t clearly know his identity, as well. But my father called him bro, as well as Wade Xie.” Reba said.
Lena was shocked. “So his identity is so shocking! Is Chase Jay Sis Technology’s real boss?”
Reba was reminded. But she instantly refused to accept it.
It could be that!
Chase was too young to found such a huge business like Jay Sis.
And he said he was SS Supermarket’s boss.
Though Reba thought Lena’s guess reasonable, she still didn’t want to believe it.
But, how could a supermarket’s boss gain such respect from her father and Wade?
“I don’t know. He runs a supermarket named SS. Oh, he is the person who won Gage Zhou from your city before.” Reba said.
“What? What a pity! You should tell me this earlier.” Lena shouted with pity.
The primary purpose of Lena’s visit this time was to find the one who won the stones’ channel from Zhou’s family.
She wanted to buy the channel.
Lena Lan’s family was competing with Zhou’s family. Since the stones’ channel was crucial for Zhou, Zhou would be defeated as long as Lan could control the channel.
“Well, he might attend the Thanks Dinner Party held by officials two nights later.” Reba guessed.
“OK! Let’s attend, too!” Lena smiled.
As Chase went back home, he saw Jayne still sleep with Cassie in another room. He smiled bitterly and then went to bed after a bath.
The next day, Chase had to send Cassie to school by taxi.
Then he took another taxi to the supermarket. Now, Wall and Silver ran Jay Sis well, and many experienced employees were working there, making Chase unworried.
But he worried a lot about Larry and the supermarket.
He couldn’t make sure if Larry was really able to follow his plan to make the supermarket chain brand.
After one day’s cleaning up, the supermarket worked again today. Chase came here at noon.
“Mr. Lu! It’s you.” As Chase went by a drinking stand, he saw Bain Chen and another girl come over.
The girl was about twenty years old, not much beautiful, but fashion.
Chase glanced at the girl. He found her somehow familiar, but couldn’t remember who she was.
The girl was Ida Lei, Jayne’s classmate, who remembered Chase and knew Chase’s uselessness well.
“Oh. Hello.” Chase smiled.
“Mr. Lu. Where are you going?” Bain asked. Since Chase showed his skills in Longevity Garden before, her attitude towards Chase had changed a lot.
“I’m going to have lunch. Do you have it?” Chase answered casually.
“We too. How about treating us cups of drinks, and we buy you lunch?” Bain’s eyes blinked.
Chase felt thirsty, as well. He intended to agree, but Ida interrupted.
“Bain. We’d better have it ourselves.” Ida had no good impressions on Chase.
Not enough, she really hated Chase.
Ida couldn’t understand why Bain was willing to greet such a coward and intended to invite him for lunch! Wasn’t Bain afraid of being disdained by onlookers if she ate with Chase?
Ida was reluctant, but she couldn’t directly express her feelings to Bain. They were friends, indeed. But Lei’s family was somehow a subordinate of Chen, so she didn’t dare to bother Bain.
Chase found Ida’s disdain, so he declined. “You’d better have it yourselves.”
“So, you just have to treat me alone, and I buy you later.” Bain also felt Ida’s hate to Chase, making her unpleasant.
Chase was Chen’s honored guest, much more significant than ten times of Lei’s family.
Bain’s attitude made Ida anxious.
Ida made a relationship with Bain to gain benefits for the family, and the reason for her to get Bain’s trust was her endless care and compromise.
She had to compromise when Bain was unpleasant because their family’s business all relied on Chen’s help.
So, Ida had only to flatter and follow Bain.
“So, let’s have it together.” Ida hurriedly agreed.
Though she disdained Chase much, she had to care about Bain’s attitude.
Just she had invited a beloved man today, so it would be shameful to let the man see she walk with Chase.
Chase glanced at Ida with surprise. It was unexpected to see Ida’s attitude change so fast.
But he realized soon. Ida seemed to be Bain’s friend, but how could Bain, a spoiled young lady from Chen’s family, treat Ida well?
Ida must have compromised much to make this relationship with Bain.
And she must have felt Bain’s discontent before.
But why Ida had so much hate to him?
Did he offend her before?
Chase was confused.
