Chapter 294: Chapter 0294: What Games Are Being Played?
Fengwu Villa!
Just hearing the name might make you think it’s a vacation resort, and indeed, it is!
But it’s not just any ordinary resort, nor is it a place where just anyone can step foot.
Anyone who walks in here, each one of them has a fortune that starts with at least eight digits!
You can say, those who enter here are either rich or noble, and of course, not everyone can afford the expenses here!
To enter, the starting price for expenses is 8,800, and that’s just the beginning; if you do some extra activities, spending tens of thousands of dollars isn’t difficult at all, right?
Would ordinary people dare to come here and play? Can they afford it?
It is said that there are some ***** and even some film and television stars can be encountered here!
If Xu Mingzhe hadn’t told Ye Xunhuan, Ye Xunhuan wouldn’t have known about such a place in the river.
Around nine o’clock in the evening, Ye Xunhuan slowly drove into Fengwu Villa.
Although Fengwu Villa is high class, one must admit, the staff and even the security don’t look down on people at all.
Clearly, they have been professionally trained to completely adhere to the notion that the customer is god.
After Ye Xunhuan entered Fengwu Villa, a staff member immediately came over to ask if Ye Xunhuan needed any help.
When Ye Xunhuan reported he was invited by Xu Mingzhe to attend some sort of gathering, the staff member was slightly surprised.
Although they don’t judge by appearances, the clothes that Ye Xunhuan was wearing were indeed very ordinary.
At the very least, not on the same level as other people Xu Mingzhe interacts with.
But on second thought, rich people nowadays have many quirks, and maybe this gentleman was playing dumb?
The staff then asked Ye Xunhuan for his name, used the communicator to confirm with someone else, and after confirming Ye Xunhuan was a guest, he led Ye Xunhuan toward the gathering.
It must be said that the security here is very well managed, everything is in perfect order!
Ye Xunhuan followed the staff directly through the front hall, then onto a winding water corridor, and after several twists and turns, they finally arrived at the gathering.
"Sir, please come in!"
"Thank you!"
As soon as these words concluded, Ye Xunhuan stepped in with a swagger. The banquet hall was spacious, with many handsome men and beautiful women grouped together, talking and laughing.
"Ye, little brother, you’ve finally arrived!"
No sooner had Ye Xunhuan walked over than Xu Mingzhe immediately appeared in front of him, his face full of joy, "I thought you weren’t coming, it’s been such a long time without you coming over!"
Ye Xunhuan gave a sheepish smile, "Sorry Xu big brother, I was delayed by some matters, I didn’t miss anything, did I?"
"Not at all!" Xu Mingzhe waved his hands continuously, "We haven’t started yet!"
"That’s good, that’s good, I was worried I was late!" said Ye Xunhuan with a bit of relief. "Xu big brother, are these people all your guests?"
"Yes!" Xu Mingzhe nodded. "Ye little brother, being here is like being at your own home, relax a bit, don’t be shy, do whatever you want!"
Ye Xunhuan scratched his head a bit embarrassedly, "That’s very kind of you!"
"Not at all!" Xu Mingzhe said with a smile. "Tongtong, take good care of Mr. Ye!"
Xu Mingzhe waved his hand toward a stylish, beautiful woman dressed fashionably, with a seductive look and an impressive figure.
The woman who Xu Mingzhe called Tongtong immediately came over, her face displaying a sycophantic smile, "Young Master Xu, what can I do for you?"
"Brother Ye, I need to attend to some other matters. For now, I’ll have Tongtong keep you company," Xu Mingzhe said somewhat awkwardly. "Later, I’ll definitely have a couple of drinks with you!"
"Big brother Xu, if you have things to do, go ahead, don’t worry about me!"
Xu Mingzhe glanced at Tongtong and said, "Tongtong, take good care of Mr. Ye, understand?"
"Rest assured, Young Master Xu!"
"Brother Ye, I’ll be heading over there now!"
"Go ahead, go ahead!"
As soon as Xu Mingzhe had left, Tongtong turned to Ye Xunhuan and said, "Young Master Ye, you seem a bit unfamiliar; I haven’t seen you around Young Master Xu before."
"I’ve only known Young Master Xu for a few days," Ye Xunhuan said indifferently. "It’s normal that you don’t recognize me. What, do you know everyone around Young Master Xu?"
"Not really!" Tongtong said with a grin. "It’s just that being in this circle, even if we don’t know someone, they would still look somewhat familiar!"
Ye Xunhuan smiled, picked up a glass of red wine from a service cart pushed by a waiter, swirled it gently, and took a sip!
"Tongtong, right? Do you know what kind of gathering this is?"
Upon hearing Ye Xunhuan’s question, Tongtong looked at him as if seeing an alien, her face filled with surprise!
"What’s wrong?"
"Young Master Ye, you really don’t know what today’s gathering is?"
"I don’t know!" Ye Xunhuan said indifferently. "Young Master Xu didn’t tell me, he just said it was a gathering today."
After hearing Ye Xunhuan’s words, Tongtong’s gaze towards Ye Xunhuan suddenly changed!
Xu Mingzhe hadn’t mentioned what kind of gathering it was?
That meant Ye Xunhuan might not be from this circle, at least not from the circle in this city—perhaps he was an important person from out of town.
And since Xu Mingzhe hadn’t told Ye Xunhuan, could it be because Ye Xunhuan’s status was too prestigious?
His presence was likely a significant gesture of respect?
Tongtong, having mingled in this circle for a few years, naturally knew that some people in this circle weren’t just anyone you could invite!
Recalling Xu Mingzhe’s respectful attitude towards Ye Xunhuan earlier, Tongtong increasingly felt this might be the case, and with a charming smile, she said, "Young Master Ye, today is Young Master Xu’s birthday party!"
"A birthday party?" Ye Xunhuan was taken aback!
"Yes, a birthday party!"
"Damn, such a big event, and Young Master Xu didn’t even tell me, I didn’t even prepare a gift."
"Perhaps for Young Master Xu, having you come is already a great honor—the biggest gift he could receive!" Tongtong said, gently nudging Ye Xunhuan with her arm!
The biggest gift?
Ye Xunhuan’s heart filled with disdain; Xu Mingzhe inviting him to his birthday party probably wasn’t that simple, was it?
After all, he and Xu Mingzhe weren’t very close; if it was purely to get through him to pursue Qiu Ruoxi, there was really no need!
But now he had been invited here; what was Xu Mingzhe playing at?
When something is off, there must be a reason; it seems this gathering isn’t as simple as I thought!
