Although Qin Chen said so, the Great Compassion Elder still felt a bit uneasy in his heart, unable to sit still.
The Eastern Continent and Northern Sky Region are different; he had no backing at all. Even the master of the Xuan Cheng Pavilion had warned everyone not to cause trouble here, otherwise, he couldn't protect them.
Now that Qin Chen had come straight to this so-called Wan Bao Building, was Young Master Chen really not joking?
While the Great Compassion Elder was feeling anxious, the beauty numbered thirty-seven hurriedly arrived outside the office of the building master. However, she had not yet entered when she was stopped by the master’s attendant, who looked at her coldly and said, “What are you doing here? Disturbing the master’s rest carries a punishment!”
“Esteemed Sir, I have urgent matters to see the master!” The beauty numbered thirty-seven gasped, immediately bowing in greeting.
“Urgent matters? What urgent matters could you have?” The attendant sneered, looking down on her. After all, she was just a maid of Wan Bao Building; what kind of urgent matters could she have? If she disturbed the master and was blamed, who would bear the responsibility?
“It’s a young master, accompanied by an old man. That young master claims to be a black card VIP of our Wan Bao Building, and wants to discuss a business deal worth over a hundred million top-grade true stones with the master.”
“A black card VIP?” The attendant scoffed, “I’ve been with the master for so many years and have never heard of any black card VIP. You’re not being deceived, are you?”
“Ah?” The beauty numbered thirty-seven looked stunned.
She had not heard of any black card VIP either, thinking it was her own ignorance. She didn’t expect that even the master’s attendant had never heard of it. Could it be that the other party was really deceiving her?
But the confident and proud look in Qin Chen's eyes did not seem like mere boasting at all.
“If it’s a scam, we’ll find out once we have Manager Hu take a look,” the attendant coldly laughed and gave a command. Soon, a middle-aged man dressed in a manager's robe walked over.
“Lord Fan, what is your command?” The newcomer was the manager of Wan Bao Building, and in terms of position, he was much nobler than the attendant named Fan. However, Fan was the master’s attendant, so their statuses were somewhat different, which is why he did not dare to be negligent.
“This person says someone wants to see the master and claims to be a black card VIP of our Wan Bao Building, wanting to discuss a business deal worth over a hundred million top-grade true stones with the master. Go take a look,” the attendant Fan said coldly, “Who on earth has such a big tone?”
“Oh?” The middle-aged manager turned to look at the beauty numbered thirty-seven, “Xiao Qian, is that what they said? Why didn’t you report to me first?”
“Manager Hu, they specifically requested to see the master; I was just a bit anxious…” The girl hurriedly explained.
“Hmph, anxious? No matter how anxious you are, you should have reported to me first. If you disturb the master, who will take responsibility? Moreover, did they make an appointment to see the master?”
“No,” Xiao Qian said nervously, feeling terrified. Manager Hu was known for his strict demeanor, and now she felt doomed.
Sure enough, Manager Hu’s expression suddenly darkened: “Without an appointment, why waste time on them? Our master isn’t someone you can just see whenever you want. You dared to come to see the master without permission; how bold of you.”
Xiao Qian was terrified, dropping to her knees, “Manager Hu, it was my recklessness; please forgive me this time.”
“Take me to meet those two fellows. I want to see who they are, so bold as to demand to see the master.” Manager Hu snorted coldly, his eyes flickering.
Of course, although he was displeased, he didn’t act recklessly. Wan Bao Building prided itself on being hospitable, and before clarifying the situation, how could he randomly offend people?
