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

The noise in the banquet hall immediately subsided.

Everyone instinctively looked at him.

They were just talking about Youth Road, and about how Shen Ze acquired a prime piece of land worth 6.8 billion yuan for 230 million yuan.

Now the main character has arrived.

This kind of impact is even more direct than news push notifications.

Shen Jianjun's expression changed drastically. As if his tail had been stepped on, he immediately stepped forward and stood in front of Shen Ze.

What are you doing here?

Shen Ze looked at him, his voice calm: "Didn't you have someone send me the invitation?"

Shen Jianjun felt a lump in his throat; he had indeed spoken out.

At that time, he still wanted to use the prestige of the Shen family to outshine Shen Ze at his birthday banquet.

But now the situation is completely different.

If Shen Ze were to expose Zhao Wenxuan's embezzlement and absconding in public, the situation he had just managed to stabilize would immediately collapse.

Shen Jianjun lowered his voice: "It's not convenient today, you should go back first."

Shen Ze glanced at him: "Are you afraid I'll say something?"

Shen Jianjun's face darkened: "Shen Ze, today is my birthday party, don't cause trouble."

"A birthday party?"

Shen Ze's tone was flat, "You remember your own birthday, you remember Sun Mei's birthday, and you remember Shen Cong's birthday."

"Do you remember my birthday?"

Shen Jianjun's body stiffened.

Shen Ze continued looking at him: "Do you remember my mother's birthday?"

As soon as these two sentences were uttered, everyone around fell silent.

Shen Jianjun opened his mouth, but found that he couldn't answer; he really didn't remember.

Over the years, he has never seriously remembered Shen Ze's birthday, let alone the woman he abandoned.

Shen Ze's voice remained calm, yet everyone could hear it clearly.

"What? Have you forgotten things? When you abandoned us, mother and child, didn't you ever think this day would come?"

"When my mother was seriously ill, you held a banquet at the Shen family villa."

"After she died, you didn't even give her a decent burial plot."

"Now you're telling me it's your birthday party and I shouldn't cause trouble?"

Shen Jianjun's face gradually turned red and then pale.

He wanted to scold Shen Ze for being unfilial, and to say that these were all things of the past, but when the words reached his lips, he couldn't utter a single one.

Because everything Shen Ze said was true.

In the banquet hall, many guests looked at Shen Jianjun differently.

"So it really was him who abandoned his wife and children back then."

"No wonder Shen Ze's relationship with the Shen family is so strained."

"No one could get over this."

Sun Mei's face darkened, and she was about to speak when Shen Ze bypassed Shen Jianjun and walked straight to the center of the crowd.

Shen Jianjun panicked and reached out to stop him: "Shen Ze!"

Shen Ze didn't even pause. Standing before the guests, he glanced at those who were preparing to invest and asked coldly, "You want to invest in Jianjun Group?"

The boss, who had just been shouting that he wanted to invest 100 million, froze.

Shen Ze said directly, "Then I advise you to find out the truth first. Zhao Wenxuan has already absconded with 400 million and fled overseas overnight."

"Tiansheng Real Estate's new energy project is a scam from beginning to end."

"There is no real operation, no industrial park has been established, and no approval window."

"All the materials are just shells that Zhao Wenxuan used to swindle money."

boom!

The banquet hall was in complete chaos.

Those who were just preparing the contract all had a drastic change in expression.

"What?"

"Did they really run away?"

"Are these new energy projects real or fake?"

"Didn't Mr. Shen just say it was just a joke?"

Sun Mei instantly became hysterical, screaming, "Shen Ze! Shut up!"

She rushed up to Shen Ze, her gentle demeanor completely crumbling: "You're just here to cause trouble!"

"You hate the Shen family, you hate Jianjun, that's why you're spreading rumors here!"

"Zhao Wenxuan's case is still unresolved, so what makes you say he ran away?"

"You little beast, you just can't stand to see us doing well!"

Shen Ze didn't even look at her, but the guests were already in an uproar.

Someone immediately pulled out their phone: "I know someone at Tiansheng Real Estate, let me ask."

"I'll make a call too."

"You can't just listen to one side of the story in this kind of thing."

"If that really happens today, whoever votes will be doomed."

Sun Mei's expression changed, and she quickly tried to stop him: "Everyone, don't let him lead us astray!"

But nobody listened to her. It was her money, and if she really got scammed by Shen Jianjun, she'd have nowhere to turn for help.

A real estate tycoon immediately dialed the private number of the chairman of Tiansheng Real Estate.

After the call connected, he only asked one question: "Chairman Jia, what's the real story behind Zhao Wenxuan's new energy project?"

The next second, a furious voice came from the other side.

"Scam! Zhao Wenxuan has absconded with the money!"

"Whoever votes for this is doomed!"

"I've already called the police!"

The call was on speakerphone, and the entire banquet hall could hear it clearly.

The last glimmer of hope shattered completely.

The shop owner, who was about to put his money in, turned ashen-faced and suddenly looked at Shen Jianjun.

"Mr. Shen, were you joking just now?"

"You knew you were being scammed, yet you still wanted us to invest?"

"Are you trying to use our money to fill the hole in your group's cash flow?"

Another person sneered, "Shen Jianjun, you're really something."

"You sold the land on Qingnian Road worth 6.8 billion yuan for just over 200 million yuan, and then you were swindled out of another 400 million yuan by Zhao Wenxuan."

"Are you trying to trick us into buying into this mess?"

"Do you think we're fools?"

"The Jianjun Group is already so rotten, and you still dare to make money at your birthday party?"

"I almost believed you just now!"

As the sarcastic remarks rained down, the last trace of color drained from Shen Jianjun's face.

Those who had just been toasting him, flattering him, and calling him an old friend have all turned their backs on him.

Some people slammed their wine glasses down on the table.

"I can't afford this meal, goodbye."

"Mr. Shen, don't contact me about future collaborations."

"I'm afraid that one day you'll sell me out, and I'll still have to count the money for you."

"Let's go, staying in this situation is bad luck."

One by one, the guests left.

Sun Xia, her face grim, pulled Jiang Yan away without even saying goodbye.

The auction house manager also kept his head down and slipped away quickly, afraid that people would remember his earlier compliments.

Shen Ming stood still, glanced at Shen Jianjun, his eyes filled with an extremely complex expression.

Finally, he just sighed and turned to leave.

The huge banquet hall was soon more than half empty.

The food and wine on the table were still steaming, and the gifts were piled up on the long table.

But the excitement just now has vanished like a joke.

Shen Jianjun stood there, his body swaying slightly.

The 6.8 billion yuan fraud on Qingnian Road, Zhao Wenxuan's 400 million yuan scam, and the guests publicly turned hostile.

The triple blows hit him all at once, and he finally couldn't hold on any longer, collapsing to the ground once again.

This time, even the servants didn't dare to immediately step forward to help.

Shen Jianjun lowered his head, looking as if all his energy had been drained away.

He never felt so close to bankruptcy, nor did he ever think he was so ridiculous.

Shen Ze stood not far away, watching him coldly.

The man before me once lived in a villa, drank fine wines, wore expensive suits, and was surrounded by flatterers.
