The crowd came to a sudden realization.
No wonder Chen Jie was so rich; he'd found himself a sugar daddy!
That made sense. Chen Jie's demeanor was extraordinary. Setting aside his family background, if women were to vote for the most handsome man, he would undoubtedly be the top contender.
It was perfectly normal for him to be a kept man.
The crowd then sneered. Once the rich person got tired of him and dumped him, he'd be nothing, no longer rich!
He Yufi stared blankly at Chen Jie, thinking that despite Chen Jie's glamorous facade, his life wasn't actually that great.
Since Chen Jie was about to be dumped, perhaps she could seize the opportunity...
With this thought, she cast a cold glance at Yin Manman, grabbed Chen Jie's hand, and said, "I'm sorry, Chen Jie isn't someone nobody wants! If Chen Jie can't find a girlfriend, then I'm willing to be Chen Jie's girlfriend!"
"You?"
Yin Manman let out a scoff and laughed, disdainfully saying, "What use is a broke loser like you as his girlfriend? Can you even compare to me? Just a little from my fingertips would be enough for your lifetime expenses. What are you going to compare me with? Who gave you the courage to snatch a man from me?"
He Yufi was instantly filled with shame, with nowhere to hide. Yes, aside from being pretty, she really couldn't compare to Yin Manman.
Any man would probably choose Yin Manman. After all, Yin Manman wasn't a tank; a woman with the allure of money had immense attraction for men.
Outside the door, Tang Ruotong adjusted her collar.
She had arrived at the Ding Sheng Grand Hotel and, through information from the security guards, learned that Chen Jie was in this private room.
Just as she was about to enter, she heard Yin Manman's words.
Her heart stirred, and she immediately pushed open the door and walked in.
At the same time, she said coldly, "Is that so? She can't compare to you, but can my Tang family compare to you?"
With Tang Ruotong's appearance, the crowd couldn't help but let out a collective gasp.
Tang Ruotong was dressed provocatively, her pure white attire and stunning figure creating a powerful visual impact.
She exuded an aura of pure, restrained elegance.
Compared to He Yufi, she possessed a different kind of charm. One was like a fallen fairy, the other a celestial beauty, proud and resplendent.
This contrast made the men's hearts yearn to possess them both, to deeply humiliate them to quench their desires.
What shocked them even more was that she actually claimed to be from the Tang family.
The Tang family, weren't they the biggest jewel merchants in Pingcheng?
People like them were billionaires!
The next second, Tang Ruotong turned to face Chen Jie and said, "Chen Jie, let me be your girlfriend! I've never had a boyfriend in my life, so I'm much cleaner than those swarm of butterflies!"
The crowd was dumbfounded. He Yufi, a mere female nobody, being Chen Jie's girlfriend was one thing, but Tang Ruotong, a high-and-mighty young lady, was actually begging to be Chen Jie's girlfriend?
Chen Jie was taken aback. He hadn't expected Tang Ruotong to stand up for him at this moment.
Seeing Tang Ruotong, He Yufi felt a pang of inferiority.
But she clenched her fists and stubbornly said, "I've never had a boyfriend either."
Tang Ruotong's gaze towards He Yufi immediately became a little hostile. "I can give you a steady supply of jade!"
"I... I'll stick with my husband, whether he's a chicken or a dog. Everything will be up to you from now on!" He Yufi said indignantly.
"My dad said that if you become my boyfriend, all the family fortune will be transferred to me!" Tang Ruotong declared.
The crowd was speechless.
Their gazes towards Chen Jie were as if they had seen a ghost.
This scene was beyond their comprehension.
"Ahem, let's step outside to talk," Chen Jie said.
"Okay!"
With that, the two women were about to leave with Chen Jie.
But Yin Manman immediately shouted, "Chen Jie, if you walk out that door, I promise you'll regret it!"
Chen Jie glanced at her indifferently and said, "The person who can make me regret has not yet been born!"
"You, you..."
Yin Manman burst into laughter, "Good, very good, you brought this upon yourself!"
Saying that, she took out her phone and sent a text message.
"I'd like to see how a man with such crippling inferiority complex like you survives today!"
After Yin Manman finished, she said with a cold smile.
Chen Jie's eyes turned cold, and he said faintly, "You'd better pray you haven't done anything detrimental to me, or you will die!"
"Hmph, of course I haven't! I was just confirming some information," Yin Manman said with a hesitant, cold smile.
After Tang Ruotong came to find Chen Jie, Xiao Ding followed closely behind.
He had been standing at the door for quite some time. Seeing Chen Jie come out, he immediately smiled and said, "Master Chen, I haven't bothered you, have I?"
"No, let's go," Chen Jie said faintly.
"No hurry, no hurry," Xiao Ding said with a chuckle as he pushed open the door to the private room. He then cast an extremely grim look at the people inside.
He then said indifferently, "You have offended a VIP guest of our hotel. From now on, all of you are permanently blacklisted by my hotel. Now, please get out!"
The crowd immediately erupted in protest, "Who are you? Why are you blacklisting us?"
"Exactly, we paid to come here! You're not trying to say Chen Jie hired actors, are you?"
Xiao Ding sneered, "Who am I? I am the owner of the Ding Sheng Hotel, Xiao Ding! I am someone none of you can afford to offend! And Master Chen is someone I cannot afford to offend! You offended Master Chen, and kicking you out is already lenient. If you dare to talk back, I'll make sure you can't handle the consequences!"
Hiss!
The crowd gasped.
For a moment, everyone looked at Chen Jie in shock.
Some of the women felt immense regret.
They regretted not having tried to get acquainted with Chen Jie from the start.
They also resented He Yufi, the slut, for being so lucky that the man she was fawning over was so powerful.
He Yufi was also filled with shock.
Chen Jie's status was far beyond her imagination.
Chen Jie frowned and said, "Xiao Ding, there's no need for this. Make Yin Manman and those men pay and leave. As for the women, let them finish their meal before they go."
Xiao Ding's expression shifted, and he quickly said, "Yin Manman and the men will all leave. The others can stay and finish their meal before leaving!"
Yin Manman angrily retorted, "Trash, do you know who I am?"
Xiao Ding sneered, "I don't care who you are. Master Chen's words are absolute commands! You get out now!"
"Fine, fine, don't you regret this!"
"I'm leaving!"
Yin Manman walked out with a dark expression.
"Pay the bill!" Xiao Ding said.
"Heh heh, alright, I'll pay! Don't you regret this, you bastard!" Yin Manman said with a cold laugh.
Xiao Ding and Chen Jie didn't take her threat seriously and headed straight to the top floor.
Upon reaching the top floor, Tang Ruotong blushed and said to Chen Jie, "Chen Jie, just now I..."
Chen Jie smiled and said, "It's fine. I know you said that to help me."
Tang Ruotong opened her mouth, wanting to explain, but felt too embarrassed to say it.
