This banquet was organized by their Longhua Commercial Youth Economic Promotion Association to strengthen communication among young people.
The banquet was held once a year, with a different young person hosting each year.
This year, the host was Ouyang Fuhua.
Many elites and rising stars of the Longhua generation had already gathered in the banquet hall.
When they saw Mo Xiaojing walking into the banquet hall with a man's arm linked, the scene erupted in an uproar. All eyes fell on the ice queen Mo Xiaojing and Chen Mo.
At this moment, Ouyang Fuhua also entered the banquet hall: "Everyone, welcome to Longhua's annual youth banquet."
He then looked at Chen Mo beside Mo Xiaojing: "Today, we have a new friend joining us. Let me introduce him."
Saying this, Ouyang Fuhua stepped forward and came to Chen Mo's side: "This gentleman is named Chen Mo, a doctor at Longhua First Hospital."
"What? A doctor?!"
The crowd was astonished.
They had never expected that the young man before them was just an ordinary doctor!
"President Ouyang, isn't this banquet only open to those with assets in the tens of millions? Since when did hospital doctors become so lucrative?"
Everyone looked at Chen Mo mockingly.
"Perhaps his father is the hospital director."
"If that director earns ten million a year, how dark must his heart be?"
Some young people who were close to Ouyang Fuhua also chimed in with sarcasm.
They all knew that Ouyang Fuhua liked Mo Xiaojing, so they understood Ouyang Fuhua's intention in introducing Chen Mo separately.
"Ouyang Fuhua, that's enough!" Mo Xiaojing looked at Ouyang Fuhua displeasedly.
Ouyang Fuhua replied: "Miss Mo, I was just making an introduction. I haven't said anything."
Then, as if remembering something, he added: "Oh, right, this Chen Mo is also Miss Mo's boyfriend. Let's all give him a round of applause to welcome him!"
Clap clap clap clap!
With that, Ouyang Fuhua started clapping.
Only scattered applause was heard, clearly no one took Chen Mo seriously.
Chen Mo was accustomed to such situations and paid no attention.
Especially since he was not Mo Xiaojing's boyfriend and had no dealings with these people, he couldn't be bothered.
"Since everyone has met, let's start with dinner. Later, I'll open a bottle of Romanee-Conti that I've treasured for many years." Ouyang Fuhua said to the crowd.
"President Ouyang truly lives up to his name. Romanee-Conti is quite the offering."
"Anyone who marries President Ouyang, handsome, rich, and talented, would be incredibly lucky."
"President Ouyang, my sister is still single. Why don't I introduce her to you?"
Hearing the flattery, Ouyang Fuhua smiled modestly: "I'm sorry, my heart is already taken, and I won't be interested in anyone else."
At the same time, his gaze fell on Mo Xiaojing not far away.
"Oh my god, President Ouyang is so devoted. A man like this is impossible to find even with a lantern!" a girl said deliberately.
At this moment, two singers appeared on the stage and began to sing.
Seeing them, one young man exclaimed in surprise: "Aren't those Dong Zihui and Xiao Xiaoqi? President Ouyang can even invite them!"
"It seems this year's banquet will be the most sensational one ever."
Another young man flattered: "Seeing the banquet President Ouyang has prepared, I feel that the banquets I've hosted before were just garbage. They really can't be compared to President Ouyang's."
Another young man asked: "President Ouyang, didn't Meng Chang just arrive in Longhua? Why didn't you invite her? I heard Miss Mo is a big fan of Meng Chang."
Ouyang Fuhua smiled calmly: "I invited her, but she's been too busy lately. After all, she's preparing for her concert, so she's not accepting any invitations for now."
"After the concert, I'll arrange a private meeting with her, and we can gather again then."
Everyone was excited.
Ouyang Fuhua took a sip of red wine and exchanged a look with a young man.
The young man immediately understood and looked at Chen Mo: "Dr. Chen, may I ask how much you earn per month?"
Chen Mo simply held up five fingers.
"Fifty million?" one person asked in surprise.
The young man who had asked Chen Mo immediately laughed: "If he can earn fifty million a month, I'll switch to being a doctor right away."
"In my opinion, Dr. Chen means five thousand, right?"
Chen Mo did not deny it and nodded: "That's right, five thousand."
"Pfft!"
Immediately, everyone around burst into laughter.
"Five thousand? That's not even enough for me to buy a pair of shoes."
"Let alone buy shoes, even one shoelace for my shoes costs ten thousand yuan. He'd have to work for two months just to buy a shoelace."
"Five thousand yuan, how can one live like that? It's worse than a beggar on the street."
The entire venue was in an uproar.
Upon hearing this, Mo Jialong was displeased and immediately stood up, saying: "Who are you looking down on? Do you know the horse farm in Beishan? That belongs to my brother-in-law!"
"What? Young Master Mo, are you joking? That horse farm belongs to your brother-in-law?"
"Exactly, who doesn't know that the owner of that horse farm is a mysterious tycoon? Him? He probably doesn't even qualify to carry the tycoon's shoes!"
The youths sitting on either side of Ouyang Fuhua said disdainfully.
Mo Jialong said: "You judge a book by its cover. Don't you know there's a new sign at the entrance of the horse farm that says 'Ouyang Fuhua and dogs are not allowed'? That was my brother-in-law's masterpiece! You can ask President Ouyang if you don't believe me; he was there that day."
"What? That was his doing?" This time, some were shocked.
He had just been there yesterday and was stunned for a few seconds when he saw the sign.
Out of respect for Ouyang Fuhua, he had never dared to mention it.
But what he didn't expect was that the sign was actually put up by Chen Mo.
Upon hearing this, Ouyang Fuhua's expression turned extremely unpleasant.
Everyone's gaze also turned to Ouyang Fuhua.
But what surprised them was that Ouyang Fuhua did not deny it, and his expression was very grim. This meant that what Mo Jialong said was not wrong at all, and Chen Mo was indeed the owner of that horse farm.
"I didn't expect Brother Chen to be so young, and also the owner of the Beishan Horse Farm. My apologies, my apologies!" a man said, cupping his fists towards Chen Mo.
Chen Mo merely nodded politely.
The few people who had looked down on Chen Mo earlier now had very unpleasant expressions.
They were also somewhat dissatisfied with Ouyang Fuhua. He hadn't mentioned that the other man was the owner of the Beishan Horse Farm, causing them to humiliate him like this. Wasn't he just causing trouble for himself?
However, at this moment, a waiter hurried over.
He approached Ouyang Fuhua respectfully and said: "Mr. Ouyang, Miss Meng Chang has arrived. May I let her in?"
