The expressions on Lin Tianxiang and the other two immediately changed.
The three of them stopped pretending!
They immediately tore off their masks.
"Su Chen, I really didn't expect you to be such a good liar. I really underestimated you!" Lin Tianxiang was furious. He absolutely did not believe Su Chen could get into the Chaofan Group!
He believed even less that the Chaofan Group belonged to Su Chen's family!
Why not just say the universe belonged to his family too...!!!
The classmates were doubtful as well. Qin Xixi wanted to believe Su Chen, but the Chaofan Group... even she felt Su Chen's boast was too outrageous.
She could not help saying, "Su Chen, it's not embarrassing if you haven't found a job. We just graduated, so take it slow."
Wan Pin could not keep up the act either. He openly mocked him again. "Su Chen, have you been under so much pressure from not finding a job these past few months that you've developed delusions? The Chaofan Group is run by your family? You work at the Chaofan Group? That car of yours was obviously rented!!"
"Classmates, we all studied together for four years. We know exactly what kind of family Su Chen comes from. Even Young Master Lin could only afford a five-million Maserati. Do you really believe Su Chen could afford a luxury car worth 170 million?"
"A low-profile young master from some mysterious family? Someone praises him a little, and he starts thinking he's really rich!"
Su Chen looked at Wan Pin as if he were an idiot. "Wan Pin, if you just want to welch on the deal and don't want to kowtow and call me Grandpa, I never said I wouldn't let you off. I'm not interested in having a grandson as dumb as a pig anyway!"
"You say my car is rented? There are only three of these cars in the entire world. One is with the president of Country T, one is in some big shot's garage in Dragon Country, and the last one is downstairs. Who do you think could put a car like that up for rent?"
"If you'd bothered to look the car up, you wouldn't be humiliating yourself like this. That brain on your shoulders is for thinking, not for making up for your pathetic five-foot height!"
Chen Zhiqiang, Zhang Yubin, and Ge Yu arrived late. As soon as they entered, they heard what their Brother Su had said. The three exchanged looks and instantly understood what was going on.
Zhang Yubin gave the other two a look and suddenly raised his voice. "Brother Su, you came so early. We thought you'd arrive later since you had work."
Ge Yu knocked him on the head and laughed. "Zhang Yubin, are you stupid? The Chaofan Group never makes people work overtime~"
Chen Zhiqiang walked in after them and sat beside Su Chen. "Brother Su, I just heard outside that Wan Pin was going to kowtow and call you Grandpa? I didn't expect such a big show at our graduation dinner today."
"Wan Pin, I heard you got into Hongxuan? Hongxuan can't compare with Chaofan at all. How about you kowtow to Brother Su a few more times and let him see if he can find you a clerical job at the Chaofan Group?"
"Exactly. Our Brother Su has a lot of authority at the Chaofan Group~" Ge Yu gave a mysterious smile.
Su Chen knew he was hinting at his relationship with Yan Bingxue, and the corners of his lips rose into a smile.
Wan Pin's face turned green with rage. Gritting his teeth, he said, "Su Chen has a lot of authority at the Chaofan Group? Ge Yu, how can you be such a liar? If Su Chen got into the Chaofan Group, he's probably just a cleaner or logistics worker!"
Lin Tianxiang was already calling his uncle.
His uncle had a friend who happened to work at the Chaofan Group.
"Hello, Uncle, it's Tianxiang. I wanted to ask you something. One of my classmates got an offer from the Chaofan Group, but isn't the Chaofan Group really hard to get into? So I wanted to ask around and see if he was really hired by them."
"Yes, he's my college classmate. His name is Su Chen, Su as in Suzhou, Chen as in dust. Mm, could you ask for me?"
"Alright, I'll wait for your call!"
After hanging up, he comfortably leaned back in his chair and casually wrapped an arm around Qin Xixi.
Qin Xixi glanced at Su Chen and seemed somewhat uncomfortable as she tried to struggle free. But then Lin Tianxiang said, "Classmates, my uncle's friend works at the Chaofan Group. My uncle is asking about Su Chen now. But he said the Chaofan Group has very strict hiring standards. Employees hired without passing the exams generally have to be top talents in their fields."
"Su Chen, didn't expect I had this kind of pull, did you? Haha, your lie is about to be exposed. You really are pathetic."
Su Chen was not flustered in the least. Instead, he thought highly of Lin Tianxiang. Wan Pin had just said he was lying and had rented the car, and Lin Tianxiang immediately called in a favor to verify it. Talk about getting a pillow just when you were sleepy. Perfect!
The phone rang, and all the classmates looked over. Everyone was waiting for this call.
Just as Lin Tianxiang was about to answer, the female classmates who still wanted to believe Su Chen said, "Young Master Lin, put it on speaker~"
"Let us hear for ourselves whether it's true or not. Otherwise, who knows if you'll falsely accuse Su Chen afterward~"
Lin Tianxiang had originally planned to claim Su Chen was lying no matter what answer he heard. Now that several female classmates had cornered him, he unhappily turned on the speaker.
"Hello, Tianxiang. I just asked my friend at Chaofan. They said there isn't any new employee named Su Chen at the company. Could your classmate have been scammed?"
"Oh, I see. Got it, thanks, Uncle." Lin Tianxiang hung up with a smile on his face.
"Su Chen, what else do you have to say? The Chaofan Group says there's no one named Su Chen!"
"I really didn't expect this, Su Chen. You were the campus heartthrob, yet you're telling your classmates this kind of lie. We're all classmates. Is it fun to make fools of us?" Wan Pin sneered.
The female classmates looked at one another. A few bolder ones quietly went over and said to Su Chen, "Su, why don't you leave first today? I don't think this meal is worth having. They're clearly targeting you!"
"Hey! Classmate Liu, what do you mean by that? Young Master Lin and I aren't the ones lying. Who's targeting Su Chen? He's the one who shamelessly loves to brag."
"Bullshit!" Ge Yu cursed. "My Brother Su works at the Chaofan Group!"
Su Chen looked at Lin Tianxiang and said calmly, "Classmate Lin, why don't you ask more clearly? We're all classmates, and if there's been a misunderstanding, I'm afraid you'll lose face later. If they can't find anything at the Chaofan Group, have him ask about the Mecha Design Department."
"Su Chen, you really won't give up until you're staring at your coffin, will you? The Mecha Design Department? The Chaofan Group's Mecha Design Department is a place that can rival the Dragon Science Institute, a national-level mecha research institution. You?"
"Do you even know what a mecha is?"
"That kind of high technology is probably beyond anything your brain could even imagine!"
Lin Tianxiang's nose was practically in the air, while the whole room stared at Su Chen with skeptical eyes.
Just then.
"Hello, may I ask if you are Mr. Su Chen?" A pleasant female voice interrupted the hostility in the room.
Everyone turned around and saw a beautiful woman in a professional suit standing at the door. An elderly man stood beside her.
The old man wore a traditional Chinese suit and carried himself with extraordinary grace. A pair of gold-rimmed glasses rested on his nose, making him look like a scholarly academic at first glance.
"That's me," Su Chen said calmly.
"Hello, Mr. Su. I'm the assistant to the president of the Dragon Science Institute, and this is the president of our institute. Our president would like to speak with you. May we take a few minutes of your time?" the beautiful assistant asked with a smile.
In an instant, everyone was stunned!!
