Chapter 1419: No face at all?
It was Xiao Peng who stopped the angry Billy: "Alright, you're a shareholder of Shangmei. It would be even more disadvantageous for you if it caused a bad impact. We can just go in by ourselves!"
Although he was very unhappy about being stopped, there were a few people here who looked like they were from Da Xia, so Xiao Peng thought it would be better to avoid a conflict, so he persuaded Billy.
Fabian also said, "Exactly, Billy, why are you so angry? This is a good thing. Don't you understand Xiao? He's hoping the media won't take pictures of him so we can avoid some trouble. Qiqi, go hold Xiao's arm and be more confident. You'll be the center of attention standing next to Xiao today!"
Kiki, wearing a white lace-trimmed evening gown, looked hesitantly at Jelena. She smiled at Kiki and said, "Kiki, be more confident! Take Uncle Xiao's arm and follow him inside!" Then, she generously took Billy's arm and said, "Let's go!"
After hearing what Yelena said, Qiqi took Xiao Peng's arm and stood beside him.
Seeing that they wanted to enter and those people wanted to stop them, Billy snorted coldly: "Are you sure you want to stop us?"
Bruch and Kasim didn't waste any time and pushed them aside to make a path for Xiao Peng and the others to pass.
The few people who stopped Xiao Peng and the others looked at each other. To be honest, they really didn't dare to stop them!
Of course, those who could come here were either wealthy or noble. Who knew what their backgrounds were? They couldn't afford to offend them. Even if their bosses had powerful backgrounds, they wouldn't turn against these nobles over something like this. Who would be the unlucky ones then? They would still be the ones!
The order they had originally received was to try their best to stop the people behind them. It said: Everyone who comes here is very gentlemanly, as long as they are thick-skinned enough and speak politely, the other party will generally understand.
I didn't expect them to be so shameless. They weren't that gentlemanly! If they dared to stop me like that, I wouldn't be surprised if they got beaten up!
Who are those people? Is there a Daxia person among them? Is there such a person in the fashion world?
At this moment, a man rushed over angrily: "What's wrong with you? Why did you let them in? Didn't I tell you to stop the people behind and give Miss Zhang more opportunities to take photos alone?"
A man in a suit who had been pushed aside by Kasim was rubbing his shoulders. Hearing this, he said with a bitter face, "Manager Liu, we tried to stop them, but they didn't listen at all. They even pushed me and made me stagger! They didn't even give me any respect!"
Just as Manager Liu was about to speak, he heard the emcee introduce, "Next in line are Prince Beaugency, Mr. Billy d'Orléans, and his companion, Miss Jelena Chen."
The man in the suit was shocked after hearing this and said, "Thank goodness they didn't use force. It turns out that the person who just walked in was a prince! No wonder he was so arrogant!"
"Bullshit prince!" Manager Liu scoffed after hearing this. "France is a republic now! What's the point of this empty-headed prince? He brought two bodyguards with him, like it was real, and he was so rude just now! I should have hit them! What bullshit prince? Now someone tells you he's a descendant of the Eight Banners, what do you care about him?"
"What's wrong with being a descendant of the Eight Banners?" Another person next to them said after hearing this: "My ancestors were also emperors!"
"Huh? Why haven't I heard of this?" the man in the suit asked in confusion.
"I'm a descendant of Yan and Huang. My ancestors are Yandi and Huangdi! What's a member of the Eight Banners? If I see those two bodyguards again, I'll really beat them up! They pushed me just now, and they were quite strong!"
At this moment, the emcee's voice came again: "Entering the venue at the same time as Mr. Billy de Orleans are the three founders of 'La Ciotat Ocean Exploration'. You may not know this, but two of the three founders of the now famous 'La Ciotat Ocean Exploration' in Europe are French. Their company is named after the seaside town of La Ciotat in Marseille, France. They are the pride of France. Let us welcome Mr. Fabien Cousteau and Mr. Pascal Cousteau!"
The people who were working on how to weaken Bruch and Kasin started discussing again after hearing this: "La Ciotat Ocean Exploration Company? What kind of company is this? Why is it so famous in Europe?"
"You don't understand, do you? This is all because of Xiao Peng from our country. He's started a shipwreck recovery craze in Europe now, and there are so many so-called 'ocean exploration companies' out there!"
"Xiao Peng? The one nicknamed 'Salvage King'? What's the name of his company?"
"Uh, I really don't know about that."
"Tsk, what kind of ocean exploration company is this? They're just following behind us Daxia people!"
"That emcee is also an idiot. He only introduced two of the three founders!"
He had just finished speaking when the host's voice rang out again, "Let us solemnly introduce the next gentleman. This is Prince Beaugency's personal friend! He's the founder of 'La Ciotat Ocean Exploration Company,' and his story is much-told. He amassed wealth through miraculous means, becoming a billionaire in a short period of time. He's the 'Salvage King,' Xiao Peng! This is his first time attending a dinner like this. His presence truly brightens our gathering!"
"Hiss!" Several people took a breath of cold air together.
"The Oriental man who spoke for us just now was Xiao Peng?"
"He speaks French! Why not Chinese?"
"You're so stupid! Who doesn't know that Xiao Peng speaks several languages?"
"Why didn't I recognize him just now? I should have asked for his autograph!"
"At least take a picture with him! I'll have something to brag about when I get back!"
"Fortunately, I didn't stop them just now..."
"Yeah, if a conflict really happened, s ...
"I was wondering why those two bodyguards were so powerful. Turns out they were Xiao Peng's bodyguards. How could his bodyguards be any worse?"
"Look at how they're doing. Sigh, it's so frustrating to compare yourself to others!"
A few people were discussing this, and Manager Liu finally came to his senses: "You said it was Xiao Peng who just went in?"
The man in the suit pointed in the direction of the red carpet: "Didn't the emcee say that?"
Manager Liu quickly asked, "You didn't have any conflict with him, did you?"
"Of course not!" the man in the suit said, "We just tried to stop them, but we couldn't stop them, right? Or maybe he spoke well for us."
Manager Liu let out a long sigh. "Fortunately, fortunately, that guy is a bit tricky! Last time, that young handsome guy tried to ride on his popularity and ended up getting banned! This guy has a strong background. The boss said at the time that anyone who touches him will die!"
"Ms. Zhang is still on the red carpet. Nothing will happen to her, right?" the man in the suit suddenly said.
Manager Liu waved his hand: "Don't worry, she's not a fool. Once she knows Xiao Peng's identity, she will definitely know what to do."
