Chapter 49: The Bund 18

Bund 18, located at the intersection of the Bund Nanjing Road, was originally the headquarters of Standard Chartered Bank in China. Formerly known as Macquarie Bank, 18 on the Bund was built in 1923. After two years of renovation, Bund 18 has become a top-notch comprehensive consumer building integrating flagship stores of world-class fashion brands, internationally renowned restaurants, bars and art exhibition halls.

The building, originally known as the Macquarie Bank Building, was created in 1853. Headquartered in London, England, Macquarie Bank is a bank licensed by the British Crown to conduct colonial business. When the bank set up a branch in Hong Kong, it was translated as "Standard Chartered Bank". In November 1857, a branch was established in Shanghai, and it was called "Macquarie Bank" because the name of the first general manager was "Macquarie".

Today, it has become a gathering place for the upper class, a modern vanity fair. It is not rich or expensive to be able to come here, especially the terrace on the seventh floor, which has become a must-visit place to enjoy Shanghai's nightlife.

When Chen Yufeng arrived, there were already a lot of famous cars parked here, and it seemed that something would happen tonight.

"Don't guess, tonight is the eighth master's birthday banquet, his old man's banquet invited almost all the celebrities in Shanghai, this pomp, who in the whole of Shanghai can compare with it?"

"Birthday feast? Chen Yufeng muttered, and then said to Huang Anyou: "Let's go in quickly, otherwise it won't be good to let the eighth master and his old man wait in a hurry." ”

After speaking, ignoring Huang Anyou's slightly surprised eyes, he walked straight to the Bund 18.

……

Building 18 has restored Greek-style marble columns and an elegant and noble hall. The first and second floors bring together world-class luxury clothing, accessories and jewelry stores, representing the consumption concept of the elite, and also allowing every guest who lingers here to overlook the elegant atrium and look at the bright chandeliers, instantly wandering around the vanity fair full of clothing and jewelry. The 4th to 7th floors are home to some of the world's top 50 restaurants, and the 7th floor is the world's top 50 restaurants.

Looking at this, almost all the women are dressed up in fancy clothes, talking to those who are successful in business, and seem to be teasing as if they are still doing nothing! This seems to be the epitome of society, oh no, it is the epitome of high society! Poor people may never be here for the rest of their lives unless they dream!

Chen Yufeng casually picked up a glass of red wine in the waiter's hand and lingered in the golden splendor here. Men and women, who passed by him, almost all of them were shoulder to shoulder, and on the surface they looked like their closest friends! This could not help but remind Chen Yufeng of a sentence in Thackeray's "Vanity Fair": "When I think of those who draw on fame and fortune, how long-lasting and perfect the friendship between them is, I have to admire them!"

The eighth master has not yet appeared, Huang Anyou is quite enthusiastic to entertain this group of celebrities, it seems that he is quite good in this circle, and many people have begun to talk to him, which is called a lot of fun!

Chen Yufeng was bored and found a place to sit down, drinking red wine alone, he was alone, and in this lively environment, he seemed extra out of place.

At this time, a beautiful woman is being harassed. A successful businessman in Shanghai was tirelessly "harassing" the woman at this time. His name is Wang Fu, and he is an entrepreneur who has only risen in recent years. The Wang Group in his hand has almost nearly 500 million assets!

"Yuying, wait a minute, come with me to dinner on the fifth floor, I think if there is a candlelight dinner, it will definitely be very long!" Wang Fu said to the woman with a smile, but that lewd face was really heart-wrenching!

The woman's name is Liu Yuying, the daughter of Liu Shuangshi, the president of Liu's Group, because Liu Shuangshi has a very important business tonight, so Liu Yuying came here on her behalf. It is worth mentioning that Liu's Group is not smaller than Wang Fu's company, and it is a larger company in the south.

Liu Yuying glanced at him in disgust, since she entered the Bund No. 18, this lewd man has been stalking her, and he can't get rid of her, he is simply an annoying fly!

"I'm sorry Mr. Wang, I'm already full, if you're hungry, go eat by yourself." Besides, a candlelight dinner is not something that a toad can touch!" Liu Yuying's words can be said to have torn her face, which made Wang Fu's face pale, but he did not give up.

Looking at Wang Fu's face, Liu Yuying knew that he still had a trace of luck, so she simply ignored him and went directly to find a secluded place to rest.

Wang Fu gritted his teeth, he was unwilling to lose face like this, and the dignity that was trampled on still had to be picked up, so he followed.

Liu Yuying had no choice but to look around for a suitable place. Suddenly, she saw a handsome man alone drinking red wine in a secluded corner, with a decadent smell flowing through his body. I don't know if it's a ghost, anyway, Liu Yuying walked towards the handsome man.

……

To be honest, Chen Yufeng himself doesn't like this kind of occasion of interest, although he has seen too many such occasions abroad, but for some reason, in a place where no one knows, Chen Yufeng will remain silent!

Suddenly, he saw a beautiful woman hurrying in his direction, followed by a lewd man. Chen Yufeng was surprised, and roughly thought of a possibility, that is, this woman was harassed by this lewd man, and she might even use herself as a shield!

Chen Yufeng didn't want to make trouble, so he stood up and was about to leave, but Liu Yuying suddenly ran quickly and hugged his arm, and said coquettishly: "Honey, where are you going!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone present looked at this place with their mouths wide open, and almost all of them knew this beautiful woman, not only because of her family background, but also because of her rudeness! There always seemed to be such a rule, that is, the daughters of rich families were very rude and willful! In fact, this is only a very small number, but there is no doubt that it is good to encounter such a "thorn in the head"!

Chen Yufeng was also shocked by Liu Yuying's move, and just as he wanted to push her away, Wang Fu walked up angrily and said, "Yuying, who is he?"

"Hmph, he's my boyfriend, you just have to die! Also, don't call me by my name, call me Miss Liu!" Liu Yuying said with a smug expression.

Wang Fuqiang held back his anger, looked at Chen Yufeng coldly, and said in a deep voice: "I'll give you 500,000, and you will leave Miss Liu for me immediately." ”

First of all, this is a great violation of human dignity, and secondly, it is an insult to love and women! Although Chen Yufeng and Liu Yuying have never known each other, this does not mean that Chen Yufeng allows others to insult women, after all, Chen Yufeng is currently enjoying the beauty brought by love. It seems that love is too cheap in his opinion!

Before Liu Yuying could get angry, Chen Yufeng took her hand away first, and then said to Wang Fu with a cold snort: "Although I don't like to get into trouble, your approach is too domineering!"

"Hmph, in today's society, if you have milk, you are a mother, and if you have money, you are king! If you have money, you can't do anything? Don't be so naïve, you really think that love is not measured by money! At first glance, you are a little ghost who has not been deeply involved in the world. Wang Fu sneered.

"You know a fart! As long as you have this virtue, I'm afraid you can only go to prostitution! What kind of love do you know!" Liu Yuying couldn't hold back anymore and scolded.

This scolding simply thundered everyone present, although they heard about Liu Yuying's rudeness, but they didn't expect it to burst into foul language! And it was so vicious! Even Chen Yufeng was shocked.

Wang Fu's face was simply crooked, and his already ugly face became even more ugly! But he didn't dare to get angry with Liu Yuying, after all, where was her family background, so Wang Fu pointed the finger at Chen Yufeng, and said with a gloomy face: "Just one sentence, do you agree or not?"

Anyway, Chen Yufeng didn't look like a person with a very good background, so Wang Fu was much more ruthless when he spoke.

Liu Yuying didn't know if the man next to her would admit it like this, so just as she was about to speak, Chen Yufeng was already standing in front of her.

Chen Yufeng glanced at the angry Wang Fu coldly, and said: "Although it is not good to have one more enemy in this form now, it is still easy to destroy a scumbag, are you ready to be a beggar?"
