Chapter 2440: Chapter 2240: Minghe’s Guy
The group’s reaction was very indifferent, no one intended to reach out to shake hands with Song Xiaodong.
"Ah, from Minghe." Wang Shangjin gave Song Xiaodong a dismissive look up and down and said.
"Yes, yes, yes." Zhou Yuanzhi replied with a smile all over his face.
"Director Zhou, Master Futian’s ceremony is not something anyone can attend, you should know this, right?" Niu Yun’s lackey Wang Shangjin asked Zhou Yuanzhi with a tilted head and an unfriendly tone.
"I know, I know." Zhou Yuanzhi nodded repeatedly with his head bowed.
"Look up, those who come are all worth billions, people with status and identity. You introduced a local boss from God knows where, doesn’t that lower the dignity of the venue’s owners? Would Boss Niu be willing? Would Master Futian be willing? Would all the bosses present be willing?" Wang Shangjin asked Zhou Yuanzhi as he looked around.
"CEO Wang, this Mr. Song is also a giant in Minghe’s real economy. His assets may not match you big bosses, but he is still a top figure in Minghe. CEO Wang, show some respect, give us a chance to broaden our horizons, and get acquainted with the internet tycoons present today." Zhou Yuanzhi pleaded with Wang Shangjin.
"To network, one must have the attitude of networking. Look at your friend, nostrils flaring, silent, arrogant - is that how you make friends? Moreover, just now at the foot of the mountain, this Mr. Song did not respect Boss Niu. How can someone like that attend Master Futian’s retreat ceremony?" Ma Jiayi also said to Zhou Yuanzhi.
Zhang Lijiao, who came with Wang Shangjin, was just a minor celebrity, had no say, and stood aside quietly watching the drama.
Boss Niu just smiled and watched Song Xiaodong without saying a word; his lackeys spoke on his behalf.
Zhou Yuanzhi still wanted to plead for Song Xiaodong, but Song Xiaodong grabbed Zhou Yuanzhi and walked up to Master Futian himself.
Master Futian had not spoken, and when he saw Song Xiaodong suddenly approach, he was so startled that his body gently swayed.
"Master Futian, is this ceremony hosted by you?" Song Xiaodong asked Master Futian.
Master Futian seemed very intimidated by Song Xiaodong, avoiding eye contact, bowed gently to Song Xiaodong, and replied, "Yes."
"So, you decide who gets invited, who is allowed in?" Song Xiaodong asked again.
Upon hearing Song Xiaodong’s naive questions, the group erupted in dismissive snickers.
"Where did this young lad come from? Doesn’t even know whose territory this is, yet he comes to make a fool of himself?"
"Is this person not thinking right? It’s like going to pray at the mountain, but demolishing the temple at the foot of the mountain instead."
"Master Futian counts for squat; he has no say. Without Boss Niu’s money, Yunzhong Temple would have been bought and developed into a villa area, how could he hold a ceremony? It’s a joke!"
"Director Zhou is really clueless, even a random small internet company boss would be fine, but bringing a local tyrant, isn’t this just waiting for conflict?"
Having heard Song Xiaodong’s words, Master Futian turned around and gestured to Boss Niu with a look.
"Master Futian, this is your organized ceremony, who comes, who goes, of course it’s your decision." Boss Niu pretended to give Master Futian a fair statement.
The attendees understood clearly that Boss Niu did not want Song Xiaodong to enter, but it was merely superficial politeness.
"Mr. Song, it’s really not that I’m ignoring you; I still have business with CEO Wang and Boss Niu; you can’t enter, but I can. Ultimately, it’s your own fault!" Zhou Yuanzhi thought to himself after knowing Master Futian’s answer.
Boss Niu looked at Song Xiaodong’s relaxed expression and thought, "Get cocky all you want, this place was built by me; if I don’t let you in, even the temple’s host can’t let you in."
Song Xiaodong sensed Boss Niu’s disdainful look and also raised his head to meet Boss Niu’s gaze, waiting for Master Futian’s response.
"Mr. Song is a distinguished guest of Yunzhong Temple, on behalf of the entire Yunzhong Temple, I’m sincerely inviting Mr. Song to join our retreat ceremony; it’s an honor!" Master Futian bowed deeply to Song Xiaodong.
"Ah? Master Futian, this person is not on our list!" Wang Shangjin asked Master Futian skeptically.
"Yes, how can a local person qualify to attend our retreat ceremony?" Ma Jiayi echoed.
Song Xiaodong and Boss Niu were staring at each other. When they heard Master Futian’s words, Boss Niu felt as if he had been stabbed, forcibly holding his expression, turned around, his neck flushed red, and said to Master Futian, "Are you sure?"
These three words were spoken softly, but Master Futian’s face looked as if he had swallowed bitterness, and anyone who heard them could sense the threat.
Master Futian raised his head again, glanced at Boss Niu’s expression, then looked at Song Xiaodong, and said, "It’s truly the honor of our entire temple for Mr. Song to visit; Mr. Song, please come in!"
"This person is just a small local boss, ignorant and rude, here sit all the internet tycoons, we’ve come for serious business, I don’t understand why Master Futian would invite someone like him!" Boss Niu was obviously angry, inflated his stomach, and demanded from Master Futian.
