Chase smiled and stated, “It’s one of five of them.”
Carla laughed out and was calculating which of the top five richest men in the country was more likely to be.
Next, the leaders came to the stage to give a speech and express their grievance to the disaster-stricken areas as well as handed over the donation to the representatives of Huangping county.
After all of this, the celerity performances were resumed. Waiters in the hotel took away the tea and desserts and served dishes and drinks instead.
At this point, the entire thanks meeting was complete, and it was time for eating, drinking, and making friends.
Carla greeted the people sitting with her at the same table enthusiastically, which didn’t match her quiet appearance at all.
Jayne and Reba were also excited.
People on other tables were having drinks and touting each other.
Many young people came to the table on which Chase sit, but they didn’t come to toast to Chase but Reba and Carla.
Some young people even looked at Chase with hostility.
“You are the person that made Dan make a compensate of 50 million and made his bath sealed?”
A young man came to Chase and sit beside him.
Chase turned to the young man and asked, “Who are you?”
The young man smiled and introduced, “I’m Dane. Don’t worry. I’m not your enemy. We could be friends.”
Chase gave him a smiled and questioned, “Are you sure about this?”
Dane smiled proudly and replied, “It depends on what would you do.”
Chase didn’t say anything.
Dane turned to Carla and made a toast to her, “Miss Carla, it’s been a long time I haven’t seen you.”
Carla cheered with Dane and said, “Hey, it’s been a long time.”
Dane then turned to Reba and made a toast, “Miss Reba, let’s have a drink.”
Dane and Dan were half-parents and both the successors of the Zhang family. They shared the same personalities.
But Dane had no interest in women but only power. He believed that as long as a man had power, he could get everything he wanted.
So, he just ignored other beautiful assistants.
Dane noticed that Chase didn’t make a toast to him and was unhappy.
Dane narrowed his eyes and asked, “Chase, do you think you can win Dan?”
Chase smiled and replied, “I think there is some misunderstanding. We are not enemies.”
Dane continued, “Do you think I’m stupid? Don’t think you are invincible after you donated 100 million and ranked in the top six of the donation lists! You beat Tam last time, and Tam asked his brother to do him a favor. What do you think of Tam?”
Chase nodded, “I think he is not bad.” He was telling the truth. Though he beat Tam with a punch, he used some tricks.
Dane added, “Let me tell you the truth. Tam’s brother is much stronger than Tam. Even you won his brother, do you think you can beat Tam’s master? His master is really strong. My grandpa said his master had been more than 130 years old, but he looked like in his 50s and 60s. He has mastered the skills of longevity. You won’t match.”
Chase was a little excited. He heard of Tam’s master.
He asked, “So what?”
Tam’s master was indeed extraordinary with a weird personality and was very arrogant. Chase believed if he beat Tam’s brother, Tam’s master was more likely to come to him.
Dane scorned, “Once you lose, Dan will make you suffer.”
Chase smiled and knew what Dane said made sense. Once he lost, Dan would make him suffer.
Dane added, “But I can help.”
Chase simpered, “How?”
Dane patted Chase’s shoulder, “Toast to me first and call me brother, then we will have a conversation.”
Chase was speechless and didn’t expect that Dane just wanted him to toast to him and call him brother.
At the same time, Chase was curious about the relationship between Dane and Dan.
But Chase didn’t want to cooperate with Dane.
Carla and Reba looked at Chase and were expected what Chase would do.
Carla just met Chase who left a good impression on her. She gave her business card to Chase.
Chase stated, “If you want me to make a toast to you, forget it.”
Dane looked deep and questioned, “What? You looked down on me?”
Chase replied, “It’s up to you to understand my words.”
Dane continued, “What do you mean?”
He was the successor of the Zhang family, while Chase was just an owner of a supermarket. How could Chase look down on him！
Chase stated, “I mean I don’t make a toast to a nobody.”
Dane grimed, “So, you still look down on me. Then tell me what kind of people are qualified to have a drink with you?”
Chase was about to say something while Mayor Xie came with his hand holding a glass of wine.
People around them were envious and looked at them.
All of the people on the table on which Chase sit all stood up except Chase.
Dane, Jayne, and Carla all showed respect to Mayor Xie.
“Sit down. Sit down. I just come to have a drink with Chase. It won’t take long.”
Mayor Xie smiled to them and sit on Dane’s spot.
