Chief Gary Chen's simple words instantly made everyone tense up.
Previously, Charles Chen had started a company in Capitalview, supposedly a branch of Wansheng Real Estate, but its presence was still fairly low-key. Now, with Wayne Wang personally backing it, the impact is completely different.
Daniel Ruan was stunned by this, still kneeling on the ground, unable to get up.
With Wayne Wang personally backing the event, Daniel Ruan's building materials company should, in theory, have a much easier time doing business. But Wayne Wang came in swinging with a killer move, making the whole situation much more complicated.
Young man, the environment here isn't great. Would you mind moving somewhere else for a meal?
Wayne Wang invited Evan Lin to get in the car, and Evan didn't refuse.
What shocked everyone even more was that Wayne Wang actually had the driver get out and drove himself, just to make room for Evan.
Just how much respect does that show?
Charles Chen drove his own car, with Lucy Lu and Lynn Chen following behind.
Chief Gary Chen, smiling, made no move to arrest Evan and instead explained to the surrounding bosses, "This time, I'm here on orders from above, specifically to ensure the safety of Chairman Wang of Wansheng Real Estate, our VIP for the Strategic Investment Project."

Inside the Bentley, Keaton Wang and Megan Liu sat in the back, Wayne Wang drove, and Evan Lin took the front passenger seat.
Inside Triumph Manor, the stunned bosses and tycoons quickly began frantically asking about the boy's identity.
But no matter how much they asked around, not a single person could figure it out. Everyone was left completely in the dark.
Derek Ren and Madam Han, standing in the crowd, suddenly felt a chill run through them. They exchanged a glance, drank half a glass of red wine, and quietly slipped away with Ryan Ren.
From now on, the Capitalview business circle had a new Lin-surname youth, rumored to have a fearsomely strong background. Just how powerful, nobody knew—the mystery remained.
In the car, Keaton Wang kept bombarding Evan Lin with questions. Wayne Wang, driving, seemed amused and let Keaton chatter away. Meanwhile, Megan Liu, sitting next to Keaton, kept shooting Evan hostile looks, her cheeks puffing up angrily every so often.
In the car behind, Charles Chen drove after the Bentley, full of emotion. He kept marveling at how Evan Lin was outclassing all his peers, mocking Brightsea soccer prodigy Ethan Yi as nothing but a weed. Charles also couldn't help patting the steering wheel, proud of his decision to stand by Evan at Triumph Manor.
Come on, what are you so happy about? Didn't you see how everyone was acting just now? If Chairman Wang hadn't come, we'd have been utterly disgraced today.' Lucy Lu frowned. 'And what was supposed to be a simple reception turned into this mess. Evan nearly got into real trouble.'
Alright, alright, it's all fine now. Besides, Daniel Ruan doesn't have the guts to use his son as leverage anymore. Evan's strike just now was ruthless, but man, was it satisfying to watch.' Charles Chen shook his head, then glanced in the rearview mirror at Lynn Chen in the back seat.
Lynn Chen sat with her head down, lost in thought.
Lynn, when we get out of the car, find a chance to talk to Evan. If there's something you need to say, say it. Don't keep things bottled up inside.
Charles Chen offered advice. After seeing Wayne Wang's attitude toward Evan Lin, even if Charles didn't fully understand, he knew Evan's future was limitless.
Wayne Wang parked at a private club. After getting out, he led Evan and the others into a private room.
Wayne Wang, Charles Chen, Lucy Lu, and Chief Gary Chen went to another private room, leaving Evan Lin, Lynn Chen, Keaton Wang, and Megan Liu together.
Evan sat there drinking tea while Keaton Wang peppered him with questions. Megan Liu puffed her cheeks and glared at Evan, glancing over at Lynn Chen, her eyes darting back and forth.
Lin, Summer's gotten more and more impressive lately. He's so busy, he hasn't hung out with me in ages. Seriously, he's no fun at all.' Keaton Wang complained.
Lynn Chen was lost in her own thoughts and didn't notice Keaton talking about Summer.
Megan Liu seized the moment, frowning at Keaton: "He's working hard. Not like you, always slacking off and never studying properly!"
Alright, alright, I was wrong.' Keaton Wang chuckled and nodded.
At that moment, Lynn Chen seemed to make up her mind. She looked at Evan, who was sitting beside her, and gathered her courage: "Evan, can you come outside for a moment...?"
Before she could finish, Megan Liu suddenly stood up, walked over, and sat between Evan and Lynn. She frowned, stared at Evan with suspicion, and asked, "When are you going to take responsibility for my sister?"
Take responsibility?
Lynn Chen's eyes widened in shock.
Take responsibility for what?' Evan was also stunned, confused.
Keaton Wang, startled by the question, lost his balance and fell to the floor. He quickly scrambled up and rushed to Megan Liu, saying, "Hey, hey, grandma! Are you exposing Lin for flirting? If he's going to take responsibility, don't say it now!"
Keaton Wang slapped his thigh in frustration, worried he'd ruined Evan's moment. He quickly told Lynn Chen, "Don't mind her, Lynn. Megan's got a few screws loose. Just ignore what she said!"
