Chapter 307 - 307 For Real



He was unafraid.

He Jiong ignored the odd looks of those around him and raised the bottle of wine in his hand.

Everyone had different reactions after learning who the speaker was.

Du Keke’s friend smiled and asked, “That friend of yours seems to be drunk.”

Du Keke could feel the heat on her face.

She wanted to step forward and stop He Jiong from getting drunk, but when she noticed everyone’s attention was on him, she was too embarrassed to approach him. She had no choice but to bite her lip and pretend to be a stranger. ‘We are just regular friends. I was not expecting him to be such a bad drinker.’

She did not want to acknowledge him, but Ning Li moved.

Together with Huang Baobao and the rest, they surrounded He Jiong.

Du Keke could only move forward grudgingly.

Huang Baobao said, “This... um, how should I address you, Big Brother?”

In desperation, he had forgotten to turn off the microphone and held it in his hand, allowing the entire audience to hear the conversation in the small circle.

“What did you say?” He Jiong asked, looking for the owner of the voice.

Ning Li did not dare to answer. He felt he had humiliated the man. He said, “Young Master Huang, this is He Jiong, the tower climber from the 13th Consortium. He is a well-known senior who has reached the 300th floor.”

“Pfft!”

Someone snorted.

Huang Baobao was dazed. He turned to look at Ning Li when he heard the words 300th floor. Hope reignited in his eyes. ‘From the 13the Consortium? Even Captain Ning addressed him as a senior, so it can’t be wrong!’

Ning Li shook his head and pointed to Du Keke behind him. “We just got to know each other tonight. He’s a friend of Miss Du.”

Du Keke’s face was flushed. She was only looking for a place to hide.

She paused for a moment before denying it. “Actually, I don’t know much about him. We are only here to attend the dinner party as a group.”

Ning Li smiled.

Huang Baobao raised an eyebrow. He really did not know how to continue. He thought, ‘Is this person’s relationship with others that bad? Why was everyone trying their best to draw a clear line between them and him?’

He turned to look at He Jiong and asked, “Mr. He? You just said that Wang Wen, Teacher Wang, is your friend?”

“Wang Wen?” He Jiong had a reaction when he heard these two words. He took another sip of wine and shouted, “My big brother! What’s wrong?”

Huang Baobao asked tentatively, “Then, can I trouble you to help me pass a message to Teacher Wang? Tell him Huang Baobao from the 16th Consortium is here to see him. Is that okay? As long as you pass the message, I’ll reward you!”

“No problem!” He Jiong patted his chest and shouted.

Huang Baobao was shocked and said, “When will there be news about this? My father is old, and I’m afraid that his body won’t be able to take it for long. I hope you can understand that and give me an exact timeframe.”

“Anytime!” He Jiong patted his chest and shouted.

Huang Baobao was so shocked that he took half a step back.

“He doesn’t look like a scammer; he looks like a fool!” Someone beside him sneered.

Du Keke could not hold it in anymore.

She turned around and walked out of the crowd.

Her friend pulled her back with a strange look and asked, “Your friend is drunk. Aren’t you going to take care of him?”

Du Keke shook off her hand and growled, “He’s not my friend! I don’t know him!”

After saying that, she quickly walked out of the banquet hall and disappeared.

Her friend pursed her lips and smiled.

Ning Li’s eyebrows twitched as he watched the delicious beauty in his hands leave.

He wanted to chase after her, but he could not due to so many gazes, especially when his female companion was looking at him.

He did not want to say much.

However, it would seem too deliberate to go after her then.

It was not wise to give up a delicacy already in his hands for a treat that he might not be able to taste.

He thought about it.

He shook his head in regret.

As the farce ended, the crowd dispersed.

Some people patted Huang Baobao’s shoulder and consoled him before leaving.

Huang Baobao forced a smile and nodded to send the guests off.

The banquet had been a waste of effort.

It not only cost them money, but it also exposed the 16th Consortium’s predicament of not having a leader.

They would almost certainly be surrounded and annihilated by all of their competitors the next day.

He would probably be eaten alive.

It might not even be the next day.

He forced a smile, but his heart was heavy with sadness, and his eyes wandered aimlessly.

Suddenly, he noticed the person in front of him, who appeared to be a liar and a fool at the same time, rummaging for his phone for an extended period. He finally found a phone number and dialed it.

There was no need to act anymore since everyone was gone.

Huang Baobao leaned closer to listen suspiciously.

He saw that even though the other party was drunk, he still maintained a fawning posture.

While nodding and bowing, he said into the phone, “Boss, I’m Xiao He. Are you busy?”

“Who?” a puzzled voice came from the receiver.

“He Jiong, the one who invited you to dinner and then helped you pass on the message? Noble people tend to forget things,” He Jiong said with a smile. “You must be exhausted from all the work recently, right?”

Wang Wen, who was sitting in the corner of the meeting room and listening to the group of people in front of him, looked at the caller ID and raised his phone again. “It’s you! It’s been a long time since I heard anything from you, and I thought the two companies destroyed you. Is this your number?”

“Yes, yes, yes,” He Jiong said.

The suspicion on Huang Baobao’s face grew even more as he eavesdropped.

He could hear someone’s voice on the phone.

However, he was not sure who the other party was.

With reservations, he moved closer, almost pressing his ear to the back of the phone.

He Jiong said, “I didn’t dare to disturb you since you were so busy!”

The other side replied, “Disturb? If you didn’t appear, I would not have anyone to be my bullet... I’m just running errands.”

“What’s the matter?” He Jiong stood at attention and realized that there was an additional ear beside him. He looked at Huang Baobao in confusion and realized the purpose of his call. He reached out and gestured for him to calm down.

Huang Baobao was shocked!

He felt a weird sense of electricity running up his back to the top of his head.

An unbelievable and bold guess slowly formed in his mind!

No way?

Could it be that person?

For real?

Huang Baobao was shocked. The expression on his face was more complicated than when he ate a rotten cake.

“There’s no hurry. I’ll save your number first. Don’t enter the tower and wait for my news for the next few weeks, okay? If you’re short on money, come to the academy, and we’ll provide you with food and accommodation!”

“I promise I’ll be at your beck and call!” He Jiong stood at attention again, then looked at Huang Baobao and said into the phone, “Um, Boss, can I ask you something? Just one minute!”
