Shen Haihua was stunned when the hunchbacked man appeared.
He had joined the ranks of River City’s richest figures ten years ago, so he naturally knew who this person was.
Over the past few years, he had wanted to become a member of River City Royal Club countless times, but he had only received one answer!
However, this person was now personally delivering a flower basket to the Heavenly Justice Group!
How was this even possible?
He briefly glanced at Ye Chen. Was it his doing?
Could his connections have reached this level?
The hunchbacked man gave the flower basket to one of the receptionists and walked over to Ye Chen. He cupped his hands and said cheerfully,
“Hall… Mr. Ye, congratulations! In the future, the Heavenly Justice Group will definitely become rich and prosperous!”
“Thank you,” Ye Chen nodded and said lightly.
“The pleasure is all mine,” the hunchbacked man said as he waved his hand.
After saying that, he stood silently behind Ye Chen.
Such a powerful and influential person had actually chosen to stand behind Ye Chen?
Xia Ruoxue’s beautiful eyes were filled with surprise and shock.
Most of the important figures in River City would have to bow and thank him. However, Ye Chen did not exhibit such behavior. Instead, it was the hunchbacked man who showed respect, and almost reverence, toward Ye Chen.
It seemed that there was more to Ye Chen than met the eye. What was Ye Chen hiding?
In the crowd, Zhao Youcheng’s mind went blank.
How could this be happening?
No one was supposed to be supporting the Heavenly Justice Group!
“Miss Chu, could it be that the Heavenly Justice Group is backed by the owner of the Royal Club?”
Zhao Youcheng looked at Chu Shuran, his voice trembling.
If that was the case, his fate was sealed. The hunchbacked man could destroy everything he had!
Chu Shuran finally recovered from her shock. Then she remembered that Ye Chen was a waiter at the Royal Club.
Although he did not understand why the hunchbacked man would do this, it was the only possibility that made sense.
“Ye Chen used to be his employee. It’s normal for the boss to come and support former employees…”
Chu Shuran forced herself to say that. In fact, she did not believe it herself.
Zhao Youcheng nodded.
There was no way the Heavenly Justice Group was linked with the Royal Club, right?
Then, two more cars drove over. These ones were Audi A6s, which did not seem particularly eye-catching compared to the Maybach, but the license plates changed that.
These two cars belonged to two big shots in River City!
“Impossible… This is absolutely impossible…”
Zhao Youcheng rubbed his eyes in disbelief. The cars stopped, and two middle-aged men in suits got out of the car.
When he saw the faces of the two men, Zhao Youcheng felt his heart sink. It was really those two big shots!
These two were councilors of River City’s Municipal Council, and made decisions that determined the development and future of the entirety of River City!
’F*ck! Could someone please explain what is going on?’
The two men walked over to Ye Chen and handed their flower baskets to the receptionists.
“Miss Chu, why are those two here?”
Zhao Youcheng’s voice trembled.
Chu Shuran clenched her fists tightly and said coldly, “How am I supposed to know?”
The appearance of these two people made the reporters go crazy!
The media outlets that had already published vulgar headlines quickly called their managing editors to retract the articles.
This whole situation had escalated to an unbelievable level!
Before everyone could recover from their shock, two more cars arrived.
Shockingly, these license plates were even more shocking.
Those in the know were shocked and awed.
It was a government license plate!
The first letter indicated the jurisdiction, and the second letter indicated the department. It was one of Huaxia’s mysterious organizations!
The cars stopped, and a man in combat uniform got out of the rear car, walking straight over to Ye Cheng to greet him.
Why was someone from the government here?
The crowd felt their feet grow cold.
Zhao Youcheng’s shirt was completely soaked, and even his suit jacket was wet. His legs were trembling in fear.
He was a businessman, and he knew very well what it took for a company to succeed in Huaxia.
The most important thing was backing!
Now, those who had shown support for the Heavenly Justice Group included the person in charge of the Royal Club, two of River City’s councilors, and now even Huaxia’s mysterious organization!
Who would dare to touch the Heavenly Justice Group now?
The four great families of River City were indeed powerful, but their power and influence were limited to River City. Beyond this jurisdiction, they held no authority.
“Miss Chu, what should we do about the Heavenly Justice Group now?”
Chu Shuran roared like a lunatic.
She stared at Ye Chen’s indifferent face in the distance, her nails digging into her flesh as a trail of blood leaked out.
She had come here to watch him make a fool of himself, but it was now clear that she was the fool. How did this piece of trash pull this off?
Why had things taken a complete turn from five years ago?
Who could tell her why?
“Miss Chu…” Zhao Youcheng stared in a certain direction and muttered in fear.
“Didn’t I tell you to shut up?!”
Chu Shuran was furious. She vented all her anger on Zhao Youcheng like a crazy woman.
However, Zhao Youcheng did not react at all. He stretched out his hand and pointed.. He said in horror, “There’s another car…”
