My stepmother forced me to donate bone marrow, so I retaliated by slapping my scumbag father in the

The moment the waiter finished speaking, the private room seemed to freeze in shock.

Shen Jianjun stood at the door, his hand still on the doorknob, the color draining from his face.

Sun Mei also froze.

She specially changed into a formal dress, wore jewelry, and had exquisite makeup today, all to show the Shen family's respectability in front of Tao Peng.

But now, a waiter stood at the door, in front of Tao Peng and the Shenghe Fund group, and said that Caesars Hotel refused to accommodate them.

This is hardly a treat.

This is like slamming their faces onto the table and beating them.

Tao Peng's secretary frowned and looked at Shen Jianjun: "Mr. Shen, what does this mean?"

Shen Jianjun's back instantly broke out in a sweat, and he suppressed his anger, saying, "It's a misunderstanding, it must be a misunderstanding."

He turned to stare at the waiter, his voice turning cold: "Do you know what you're saying? I booked this private room in advance, paid the deposit, and signed the contract."

"Your Caesars Hotel is now letting us leave with just a chairman's order?"

"Call your manager here!"

The waiter didn't leave and remained standing at the door: "Mr. Shen, this is the hotel chairman's intention."

"Chairman?"

Sun Mei could no longer contain herself and shrieked, "Who is your chairman? Let him come out!"

"The Shen family isn't someone to be trifled with in Shanghai!"

"Today we have invited Mr. Tao, a distinguished guest of Shenghe Fund. How dare your Caesar Hotel humiliate us like this? Aren't you afraid you won't be able to survive in Shanghai in the future?"

Tao Peng sat in the chair and tapped the table lightly with his fingers.

The voice wasn't loud, but it made Sun Mei's second half of the sentence get stuck in her throat.

He didn't look at the waiter, but at Shen Jianjun: "Mr. Shen, I need an explanation."

Shen Jianjun's face was extremely grim.

He had been preparing for this banquet for months.

The information, venue, connections, endorsements, and funding calculations were all carefully considered and refined.

If Tao Peng agrees tonight, Qiming Capital, related companies, and resources from the Chengxi New Area will all proceed smoothly.

This is the most crucial step for Jianjun Group, and also the step that will turn his life around.

But at this very moment, the Caesars Hotel had an accident.

Shen Jianjun forced a smile: "President Tao, don't worry, I will definitely resolve this matter immediately."

He took out his phone, ready to contact the general manager of Caesars Hotel.

Before the number could be dialed, footsteps could be heard outside the private room.

The door was pushed open completely.

General Manager Chen walked in with Zhao Jie and two senior hotel executives.

Shen Jianjun, as if grasping at a straw, immediately stepped forward: "President Chen, you've come at the perfect time!"

"What's wrong with the people at your hotel?"

"I've booked private rooms at Caesars more than once or twice. You should know what kind of occasion this is tonight."

"President Tao came in person, and you didn't serve any food, tea, or arrange any service. Now you want us to leave?"

"Is this how Caesars Hotel treats its guests?"

Mr. Chen glanced at him, his attitude very formal: "Mr. Shen, I'm sorry, but Caesar Hotel is canceling its services for you and your companions from this moment on."

Shen Jianjun's expression completely changed: "President Chen, have you gone mad?"

Sun Mei also became agitated: "We've already signed the contract, what right do you have to cancel it?"

Zhao Jie stood behind, head down, not daring to speak.

In the past, for a client of Shen Jianjun's caliber, he would have had to personally smile and flatter him.

But now the hotel belongs to the Shen family, specifically the Shen family of Shen Ze.

Mr. Chen stated calmly, "Regarding the breach of contract, the hotel will compensate as agreed."

"Compensation?"

Shen Jianjun laughed angrily, "You think I need your little bit of compensation?"

"I'm here today to discuss a project worth hundreds of billions, not to have a meal at your hotel!"

Upon hearing this, Tao Peng frowned even more deeply.

The fact that Shen Jianjun publicly proclaimed the words "100 billion yuan project" already made him uncomfortable.

In truly significant collaborations, the biggest taboo is losing control.

From the moment he entered the room until now, Shen Jianjun has completely lost control.

Shen Jianjun, however, had no time to worry about any of that.

He glared at President Chen, his voice hardening: "Who gave you the guts? Where's your chairman? Make him come out!"

Mr. Chen did not answer, but simply stepped aside.

A young man walked into the private room, wearing a black coat and with a calm expression.

He didn't bring many people with him, nor did he put on any airs.

But the moment he walked in, General Manager Chen, Zhao Jie, and the hotel's senior management all lowered their heads.

"Chairman Shen."

With a thud, it was like a heavy hammer slamming into the private room.

Shen Jianjun's pupils contracted sharply, and Sun Mei's anger froze.

She looked at Shen Ze as he walked in, and her mind went blank.

It's him again. He's the owner of Fengsheng Group, the owner of the Huateng Center's penthouse, and the owner of Shuren Hospital.

Now, even Caesars Hotel belongs to him?

"impossible……"

Sun Mei instinctively took a half step back, her voice changing, "How could this hotel possibly be yours?"

Shen Jianjun's throat tightened, and he felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over his head.

In just a few days, his opinion of Shen Ze had changed drastically.

From initial disdain to later shock, and then to apprehension after that phone call from Shu Ren Hospital.

But he never expected that tonight's banquet, which would determine the future of Jianjun Group, would also be in Shen Ze's hands.

Caesars Hotel, a top-tier business banquet venue in Shanghai.

He used his connections, paid a deposit, and arranged all the procedures in advance, all to show Tao Peng the sincerity and strength of Jianjun Group.

Now, Shen Ze stands at the door, casually tearing away all his dignity.

Shen Ze didn't even glance at Sun Mei, only looking at Shen Jianjun: "Didn't you want to see the chairman?"

"I am coming."

The private room was quiet.

Tao Peng's secretary and several accompanying executives exchanged glances, their expressions changing.

They're not fools; President Chen's address of "Chairman Shen" just now said it all.

The young man in front of you is the true owner of Caesars Hotel.

The relationship between Shen Jianjun and him is clearly not a typical business conflict.

Tao Peng also looked up at Shen Ze. He had seen too many young rich kids and many so-called nouveau riche who relied on their families for support.

But Shen Ze is different.

From the moment he entered until now, Shen Ze has not uttered a single superfluous word, yet he has firmly held the entire room in his place.

That calmness was a stark contrast to Shen Jianjun's earlier agitation.

Shen Jianjun's lips moved, and he forced a low voice: "Shen Ze, tonight is not the time to throw a tantrum."

Shen Ze looked at him: "Do I look like I'm throwing a tantrum?"

Shen Jianjun's face stiffened, and Sun Mei shrieked, "What are you doing?!"

"We paid a deposit and signed a contract, what right do you have to kick us out?"

Even if you're the chairman of a hotel, you can't be completely dishonest!

"Shen Ze, you really have no manners; you don't even understand basic rules!"

Upon hearing this, President Chen's expression changed, and Zhao Jie felt a chill run down his spine.

Sun Mei actually dared to berate the hotel chairman for being ill-mannered in front of the hotel's senior management.

For someone else, it might be a case of ignorance breeds fearlessness.

Sun Mei knew perfectly well that Shen Ze now controlled Feng Sheng, Shu Ren, Hua Teng, and Caesar, yet she still dared to curse like that, simply because the hatred in her heart overwhelmed her reason.
