514 Don’t Bring Me Along When Bragging

Jinghu District was not far from the venue of the charity gala. After a ten-minute journey, Chu Ning saw a magnificent manor appearing before her.

This was a truly rich person, and she was still far from that level.

There was a special parking area at the entrance of the manor. Dozens of luxury cars of various styles were parked as far as the eye could see.

A large number of guests walked into the manor. They were talking and laughing, greeting those they knew. Those who were qualified to be invited had certain outstanding qualities. A more intuitive way of putting it was that they were all very wealthy.

“President Chu, I believe that you can be like this manor owner in the future. No, you should surpass him,” Zhang Bo said emotionally.

“I might not be very interested in these things,” Chu Ning replied with a smile.

“You have to experience it. It won’t be long before you become a powerful figure like this manor owner. After all, for a banquet of this level, its owner must be strong enough to convince everyone.” Zhang Bo seemed to be very experienced. He was even more optimistic about Chu Ning’s future than his own.

“Er…” After hearing Zhang Bo’s words, Chu Ning looked around guiltily. Fortunately, no one noticed the content of their conversation.

“Can you not bring me along the next time you brag?” Chu Ning thought helplessly.

Although Chu Ning didn’t know what this manor owner did, his residence was built like a manor castle. Perhaps he had more than one such place. Zhang Bo made it seem as though such a status and background could be easily achieved.

The pair chatted as they walked. Under the guidance of the servant, Chu Ning and Zhang Bo walked into the manor.

The manor was massive and divided into many areas. Chu Ning was now going to the banquet hall where guests were received. Chu Ning had seen many villas with swimming pools, but it was her first time hearing of a man-made lake.

Chu Ning looked at the map handed to her by the servant and studied it carefully.

“The artificial lake covers an area of more than ten acres. There’s also a small zoo and ecological forest next to it…” Chu Ning looked at the map and muttered to herself.

It was only then that she finally understood how terrifying the strength of the manor owner was.

Strong financial resources were not only reflected in gold, silver, and jewelry. Chu Ning knew how much manpower and material resources were needed to build these in private residences. Moreover, these things could not be done simply with money.

Zhang Bo looked at the map in his hand and said with a puzzled expression, “There shouldn’t be such a big shot in M City. Moreover, why don’t we know anything about him?”

“Maybe his business isn’t based in M City, but M City is his hometown. Of course, we don’t know about that.” Chu Ning was also very impressed by this mysterious manor owner.

It was only after walking for a few minutes that Chu Ning arrived at the banquet hall.

Chu Ning roughly estimated that the entire banquet hall was more than 1,000 square meters. The dome that was more than 20 meters high was against the backdrop of thick wooden pillars, making it look solemn and simple. There were also holographic projections engulfing the entire hall. The degree of realism was amazing.

When Chu Ning saw this, she was also secretly shocked.

The outside was wide open like a miniature scenic spot, but there were hidden mysteries inside. The old and new were perfectly combined. Although there were many items, in such a huge space, they became ornaments.

“This is a blatant display of his background to all the guests,” Zhang Bo lamented.

That day, he had truly seen what it meant to be rich. Not to mention him, it was also Chu Ning’s first time coming into contact with something of this level.

“No wonder there are so many guests. It’s not bad to experience it,” Chu Ning replied. She felt that the construction cost of more than a billion yuan was likely not exaggerated. It was even possible that it was understated.

When she was admiring the famous paintings on the wall, she saw an authentic Picasso painting… Although it was not one of the most famous paintings, Chu Ning felt that the market price of that painting would not be lower than 10 million yuan.

After finding an empty seat, Chu Ning and Zhang Bo sat down.

It was now 6:40 pm, twenty minutes before the gala started.
