Chapter 705: Fun Places
Seeing that his girlfriend wasn’t angry, Shen Dong felt even happier. Indeed, all his guesses had been correct. Taking his girlfriend to a place she liked to relax was a very good decision. And so, in high spirits, he drove to the largest underground boxing venue, a place where he had also made some investments.
The purpose was to scout for some promising new blood to serve as temporary hired fighters. This meant the payment was not fixed; each fight posed different challenges, and if the person was a noble, they might even have to step in to offer protection. After all, the system was particularly well-developed, and over time, he had become a high-level VIP in this underground boxing scene.
When the manager heard that a high-level VIP was coming, how could he sit still? He immediately sent people to welcome him. This was a major financial backer; how could they miss this opportunity? One by one, they came out, smiles brighter than chrysanthemums, and Shen Dong was very pleased upon arriving. The setup was excellent and gave him a lot of face.
Upon arriving, Kang Yue saw the staff of this place greeting her warmly for the first time; it hadn’t been like this during her previous visit when she had simply been allowed to enter and watch. Although the manager was smiling then, it was merely a very polite smile, nothing like the broad grins now that made her think they had found money.
Wondering if it was because the money she gave was not enough, she quietly asked Shen Dong how much he had paid. After hearing the amount from Shen Dong, Kang Yue promptly shut her mouth, knowing she would never invest as much money in this place in her lifetime as Shen Dong had, because he needed to hire people to guard places or attack others.
Thus, he used a lot more money, and the large expenditures were a reason for the manager to be happy; it was normal. Whenever Shen Dong came, it meant big business, and missing out on earning money was folly. With the arrival of such a financial backer, how could the manager not smile joyfully? If it were her, she would certainly be just as happy.
Realizing this, she understood why the manager hadn’t smiled so broadly when he had seen her before.
Shen Dong had come today partly to make his girlfriend happy and partly to scout for talent here. Who could say no to that? He decided to extend this impressive treatment to his girlfriend so that the next time she was bored and wanted to come watch the fights, she could also receive such a reception.
He then addressed the manager, "By the way, this is my girlfriend and fiancée. In the future, when she comes, consider it as if I have come. Sometimes she may come to take care of some things for me, remember that for me. Her name is Kang Yue," said Shen Dong as he moved Kang Yue to face the manager.
Although Kang Yue was still using a crutch, which looked quite comical, her overall aura was too commanding to be ignored. After one glance, the manager knew she was a VIP and the girlfriend of an important financial backer and shouldn’t be overlooked.
He immediately became polite, greeted her warmly, and, knowing Kang Yue’s name, made sure to remember her; he couldn’t afford to offend her.
