Chapter 2036: Call Him Master Ye

Gu Qiuyi didn't expect that Chen Zhaozhong would be interested in the charity gala. Without any hesitation, she smiled and said, "If Uncle Zhong is interested, let's go together tonight."

Chen Zhaozhong nodded and laughed, "Alright, won't it cause trouble for Miss Gu?"

Gu Qiuyi shook her head, "How could it? They invited me to be a guest; I have to give them some face anyway."

Chen Zhaozhong sighed, "That's good... To be honest, the last time I attended a charity gala was more than twenty or thirty years ago in Hong Kong. Since coming to the United States, I have never attended such an occasion. Today is a good chance to see the world."

Ye Chen didn't doubt Chen Zhaozhong's words.

Moreover, he hadn't asked Gu Qiuyi about the details of this auction carefully, so he didn't feel anything strange. In terms of sensitivity to details, he was quite inferior to Chen Zhaozhong.

After the meal, Ye Chen and Gu Qiuyi simply stayed at Chen Zhaozhong's small restaurant.

The three of them chatted a lot on the second floor, which also allowed Ye Chen to hear quite a few things related to his parents from Chen Zhaozhong's mouth.

However, Chen Zhaozhong didn't know the inside story of how Ye Chen's parents were harmed back then either.

Six o'clock in the afternoon.

A series of crisp footsteps came, and Chen Duoduo, wearing a professional suit, ran up to the second floor of the restaurant.

As soon as she came up, she said to Gu Qiuyi, "Qiuyi, Mr. Ye, it's about time for us to set off."

Gu Qiuyi nodded and said to Chen Zhaozhong, "Uncle Zhong, let's go."

Chen Zhaozhong laughed, "Wait for me a moment; I'll go downstairs to change my clothes."

Below the roast goose shop, there was also a semi-basement, which was also the home where Chen Zhaozhong had lived for more than twenty years.

Ye Chen and Gu Qiuyi waited on the first floor for a while. Not long after, Chen Zhaozhong, who had changed into a black suit, walked up from below.

Although Chen Zhaozhong was already over fifty years old, because he was thin and tall and had a scholarly air, he looked very capable after changing into the suit, and even had a bit of dashing spirit.

This also made Ye Chen couldn't help but sigh in his heart that if his father were still alive, he would probably be like Chen Zhaozhong.

Subsequently, Ye Chen, Gu Qiuyi, and Chen Zhaozhong traveled together in the security company's bulletproof Cadillac, heading with the motorcade to the venue of tonight's charity gala, the Wangfu Hotel in New York.

At the same time, inside the Wangfu Hotel, the eight Iga ninjas led by Hattori Kazuo had already changed into waiter uniforms and began to pretend to be busy behind the scenes of the banquet hall.

Due to the shortage of manpower today, the person in charge, Chen Fu, found twenty temporary workers in one go to help, transferring the experienced employees to the front to serve guests, while those without experience were left in the back to do odd jobs.

This was also a common routine for the hotel, so no one felt that anything was wrong.

At 6:30, Gu Qiuyi's motorcade drove into the Wangfu Hotel, and subsequently, the motorcade was guided by staff into the VIP passage of the banquet hall.

The VIP passage was at the back of the banquet hall and was not open to other guests, so it could better protect the privacy of VIPs.

After the motorcade stopped steadily, the American bodyguard driving said to Chen Duoduo in the passenger seat, "Miss Chen, please wait in the car for a moment; we need to get out first to conduct a security check."

Chen Duoduo nodded. Subsequently, more than twenty bodyguards wearing bulletproof vests got out of the cars in front and behind in one go.

This group of people was indeed very professional in their field. As soon as they got out of the car, they immediately blocked both ends of the motorcade and conducted a detailed security check on the left and right sides.

There were even several bodyguards who walked directly into the VIP passage to confirm and check the route Gu Qiuyi was going to take next.

After confirming that there was no danger, the teammate's voice came through the driver's walkie-talkie, "Everything is ready; Miss Gu can get out of the car."

The driver immediately said, "Miss Gu, you can get out of the car."

After speaking, he pushed open the car door and pulled open the back seat door for Gu Qiuyi.

Gu Qiuyi and Ye Chen walked out of the car together. At this time, Chen Zhaozhong, who was sitting in the car behind, also got out. ===== CHAPTER 2037 =====
