From Wage Slave to Tycoon novel Chapter 350

Chapter 350: Chapter 196: "Farce" 3

Raymond had mentioned during their earlier chat that these gatherings were always on April 1st. Su Chen hadn’t thought much of it at the time, but he never expected a stunt like this.

From the sound of Raymond and John’s conversation, it seemed they’d pulled plenty of pranks before, just never one quite like this.

"Su Chen, are you all right!?" Arthur asked hurriedly.

Su Chen patted Raymond and Chen Fei, who were standing in front of him. The two quickly moved to stand behind him.

"I’m fine." Su Chen’s tone was a little cold. For a moment there, he’d genuinely thought he was about to get shot.

Fun and games are one thing, but you don’t joke about someone’s life. Su Chen didn’t appreciate that kind of humor.

Arthur could see Su Chen was displeased, which was understandable. Who could be happy after having a gun pointed at them the moment they arrived?

Arthur blamed himself, too. He should have given Su Chen a heads-up beforehand, but he had been too focused on chatting with him and building a rapport.

"Arthur, who’s this?" Just then, John and the others noticed Su Chen and gathered around.

"This is Su Chen, from Huaxia." Then, he turned to Su Chen to make introductions. "This blond man is John, from the United Kingdom. His father is the current heir to the Duke of Grosvenor."

"The handsome guy beside him is Abdullah, from the Middle East—or as they say, one of those oil-rich tycoons."

The other two also came from impressive backgrounds as top European nobles, though they were still a step below John and Abdullah.

After Arthur’s introductions, the chilly expression on Su Chen’s face softened slightly. After all, Arthur was being so welcoming; it wouldn’t be right not to be gracious in return.

"Hello," Su Chen said, briefly getting acquainted with everyone.

John and the others hadn’t expected Arthur to bring a friend today, which made the earlier stunt a bit awkward. As a result, they were all exceptionally warm when they shook Su Chen’s hand.

This caused the last trace of iciness on Su Chen’s face to melt away.

Once everyone was acquainted, they headed into the villa, talking and laughing as if the earlier incident had never happened.

Upon entering the villa, Su Chen saw that quite a few people were already inside, holding glasses and chatting in small groups.
