Chapter 223: Chapter 223 Please Leave

"Mr. Shi, do you have any other questions? If not, please leave."

Zhou Zheng looked at Shi Lezhi, whose face was filled with shock, and spoke in a cold tone.

"Leave? Mr. Zhou, are you telling me to go?"

Shi Lezhi paused, unbelievingly asking.

"If you must interpret it that way, I can clearly tell you, yes!" Zhou Zheng said in a cold voice.

"Mr. Zhou, are you serious? I was invited by your invitation, and you want to drive me away before the opening ceremony even starts? Don’t you think this is too disrespectful?" Shi Lezhi said with an ugly expression.

"Why should you leave, don’t you have any idea? If you are to blame, blame yourself for provoking someone you shouldn’t have. Now, please leave immediately; I never repeat myself a third time!" Zhou Zheng glanced coldly at Shi Lezhi and said.

Hearing this, Shi Lezhi’s face suddenly changed.

He turned his head to look at Chen Feng standing next to Zhou Zheng, and immediately regretted it deeply.

You see, the guests attending the opening ceremony of Tianfeng Security Company were all executives from various industries.

It would usually be very difficult to meet them all at once.

Therefore, this opening ceremony was an extremely rare opportunity for business people looking to build partnerships.

Many people came with that exact intention, including Shi Lezhi.

When he received Zhou Zheng’s invitation, he was almost overjoyed.

If he could make good use of this ceremony and meet two or three business associates during the banquet, it would greatly benefit his company’s future development.

This isn’t something a few mere deals could compare to.

Thus, Shi Lezhi valued this opening ceremony extremely, even if he was swamped at his company, he made sure to come.

But now, he was about to be driven away even before the banquet had started.

Not only would his purpose be unfulfilled, but once this spread, his reputation would be severely damaged, definitely turning him into the laughingstock of the entire Coastal business community.

Imagine attending an opening ceremony and being kicked out before it even began.

Just thinking about it was humiliating.

At this moment, Shi Lezhi was filled with regret, wishing he hadn’t shown off in front of Chen Feng earlier.

Now, not only had his bluff backfired, but he also lost such a valuable networking opportunity and was about to become a joke to others.

It was like losing both his wife and his soldiers!

Shi Lezhi hastily looked at Zhou Zheng, squeezing out a forced smile, and said apologetically:

"Mr. Zhou, here’s the thing, I honestly didn’t know that Mr. Chen was the CEO of Tianfeng Security. It was all a misunderstanding; I definitely wouldn’t have made those comments if I knew."

"Please, Mr. Zhou, give me some face, let’s just turn the page on this matter. After the opening ceremony, I will personally visit Mr. Chen to apologize."

After speaking, Shi Lezhi eagerly looked at Zhou Zheng, hoping he would retract his expulsion.

However, Zhou Zheng simply snorted coldly and said indifferently, "Mr. Shi, I’ve already shown you much respect. If I didn’t respect you at all, I would have had the security guards throw you out already, and you would have lost even more face! I hope you can be sensible and leave on your own, please don’t force me to actually do that!"

"Mr. Zhou, does it really have to be so final? Isn’t there any room for discussion?" Shi Lezhi, seeing himself stooping so low while Zhou Zheng remained relentless, spoke somewhat angrily.

"If it were something else, we could discuss it, but not this matter! Anyone who crosses Mr. Chen is my enemy!" Zhou Zheng stated resolutely.

After speaking, he coldly ordered, "Someone, see the guest out!"

The two hotel security guards stationed at the entrance of the banquet hall heard this and immediately moved to enter.

Seeing this, Shi Lezhi’s expression changed, and he quickly waved his hand, saying, "No need, I can leave on my own!"

Then, he hurriedly turned around and headed for the banquet hall entrance, not daring to stay for a moment.

Because, just as Zhou Zheng had said, if the security guards were to throw him out, it would be even more humiliating.

After Shi Lezhi’s figure had disappeared from inside the banquet hall, Zhou Zheng then turned to face Chen Feng, asking respectfully, "Mr. Chen, I wonder if you are satisfied with how I handled this?"

"Yes, it’s acceptable," Chen Feng nodded slightly, speaking indifferently.

To tell the truth, Zhou Zheng’s handling was exactly what he had wanted.

He, too, had wanted to drive Shi Lezhi away.

It wasn’t that Chen Feng was petty, but he deeply despised individuals like Shi Lezhi who looked down on the poor simply because they had some money.

Especially since Shi Lezhi had once been poor himself, he really shouldn’t look down on the poor.

If a person even forgets their roots, what else could they possibly remember?

For such people, Chen Feng would rather turn a blind eye; he did not want someone like that at his company’s opening ceremony...

The rest of the event proceeded smoothly, as Zhou Zheng had already arranged everything.

Guests entered one by one, and after everyone had found their seats and settled down, the host began to speak.

Then Zhou Zheng took the stage and briefly introduced the main business of Tianfeng Security Company and its future direction.

Actually, all the guests there already knew these details; this was merely a procedural formality.

Zhou Zheng, experienced as he was, had also invited a group of journalists to the event for live coverage.

This way, even before Tianfeng Security Company officially began operations, advertising had already been handled.

As for whether the advertisements were effective, that was secondary.

In fact, most of Tianfeng Security Company’s future clients were currently sitting among the guests.

Each of these guests was worth millions, wasn’t they?

They naturally needed bodyguards, so each one of them was a potential client for Tianfeng Security Company.

This was also why Zhou Zheng invited them all.

The opening ceremony went particularly smoothly, swiftly moving to the final step, the climax of the ceremony.

That was the ribbon-cutting ceremony!

Chen Feng had to personally take part in this, after all, he was the actual boss of Tianfeng Security Company.

As Chen Feng appeared on stage, faces of the guests below instantly filled with surprise.

Just like Shi Lezhi, they had not expected the owner of Tianfeng Security Company to be so young and unassuming.

How they perceived Chen Feng’s modesty greatly owed to the cheap clothes he wore.

A company worth hundreds of millions, led by a CEO dressed in an outfit worth merely a few hundred, wasn’t this modesty?

If Chen Feng were to know the thoughts of the guests, he would definitely be both amused and dismayed.

Not long after Chen Feng ascended the stage, a lady dressed in a red cheongsam came up beside him with a tray.

On that tray, delicately lay a pair of scissors.

Chen Feng reached for the scissors and was about to cut the red ribbon,

"Wait for me!"

However, just then, a gruff voice echoed throughout the banquet hall, disrupting the smooth proceedings...
