Chapter 67 Encounter at the Bar
The cryptic private message from Chi Yu gave Chen Jiazhi a tremendous sense of crisis.

The system had previously told her that as long as she could gain 50 million favor points, she could completely replace Chi Yu's identity and fortune.

Originally, Chen Jiazhi planned to rest for a few days and wait for netizens to forget about her and Chi Yu before going live. But now, stimulated by this private message, Chen Jiazhi didn't want to wait a moment longer and wanted to go live immediately, hoping to gain 50 million goodwill points in one go.

She gathered her team members together to discuss her future persona and career path.

Chen Jiazhi stated her request directly: "What methods can I use to quickly improve netizens' positive impression of me?"

When Tian Kai and the others heard Chen Jiazhi's blunt words, they were all somewhat shocked.

The online trends and public opinion have been attracting everyone's attention these past two days. Everyone thought Chen Jiazhi was going to give up her path as an internet celebrity and go back to being a rich heiress. Unexpectedly, she still wants to persist.

Through their work interactions over this period, the people in the studio had long realized that Chen Jiazhi's personality in private was completely different from her personality during live streams.

However, this kind of persona creation is not only common in the influencer circle, but also in the entertainment industry, so people don't find it strange.

On the contrary, only when Chen Jiazhi's business develops better and better can everyone's livelihood become more and more secure.

Tian Kai hesitated for a moment before speaking, "I saw in the comments section that many netizens are demanding a refund..."

Upon hearing this, Chen Jiazhi's expression froze.

In the past two days, she has received many refund requests from minors, which has been extremely annoying for Chen Jiazhi.

"So many people have given tips, it's impossible to return them all!" Chen Jiazhi frowned. "What will we do in the future if they develop this habit?"

She will definitely continue live streaming in the future. Those people are clearly adults, yet they still apply for refunds for minors.

Even though Chen Jiazhi is now rich, she doesn't want to give up!

“No refunds. I suggest you donate the money to charity.” Tian Kai said, “If you don’t mind, you can donate a portion of your future livestream earnings to charity. This is the fastest way to gain followers.”

Chen Jiazhi's eyes lit up: "This is a good one!"

After Tian Kai spoke first, the other members of the studio also shared their thoughts and opinions from surfing the internet over the past two days.

Chen Jiazhi was determined to clear her name this time, and she wrote down all the useful remarks.

……

On the other side, Chi Yu silently accompanied Shen Yanzhi to meet with investors.

The Shen Group has many businesses under its umbrella. Some smaller clients can be contacted by subordinates, but some important investors require Shen Yanzhi's personal involvement.

These long-term investors are his strategic business partners. Shen Yanzhi has a cold personality, but he is not rigid or inflexible. He handles basic interpersonal relationships with ease.

Today, Shen Yan had arranged to meet with two investors. They met in the morning, first playing bowling and then having lunch.

We arranged to go horseback riding at the farm in the afternoon and enjoy afternoon tea as well.

Shen Yanzhi's arrangement was not just a random choice of time; rather, one of his clients liked playing golf, and the other enjoyed horseback riding. His arrangement catered to their interests and was exactly what they wanted.

The two investors were not invited alone; they were accompanied by a few friends.

The investor who was running the horse race in the afternoon had originally only invited two friends, but after chatting so happily with Shen Yanzhi, he immediately called another friend over.

During the brief conversation, the last man to appear was drawn to Shen Yanzhi's demeanor. Upon learning that Shen Yanzhi had an undeveloped project, he immediately expressed his desire to invest as well.

Chi Yu originally thought that Shen Yanzhi was simply maintaining his interpersonal relationships. It wasn't until she saw Shen Yanzhi exchange contact information with that man who looked very wealthy and agree on a time to formally discuss the project that Chi Yu belatedly realized what was going on.

On the surface, Shen Yanzhi's actions appeared to be about building relationships with investors, but in reality, he was secretly seeking new potential connections and opportunities.

Indeed, none of the time and energy that capitalists expend is purely altruistic.

Shen Yanzhi spent the whole day with investors, and had other social engagements in the evening.

Although the news of Shen Yanzhi and the Jiang family being attacked that day was not made public, it had already spread throughout the industry.

When the Sun family found out, they felt very bad and called the Shen and Jiang families the day after the incident to express their apologies.

Shen Yanzhi and his son Jiang Siyuan both knew that this matter had nothing to do with the Sun family, so they made it very clear on the phone that they did not blame the Sun family.

Upon hearing this, the Sun family was immediately relieved, but they couldn't shake their desire to invite the Shen and Jiang families to dinner.

The Sun family made several phone calls to express their gratitude.

The Jiang family already had a close relationship with the Sun family, so naturally they wouldn't refuse them even this small favor.

After receiving a call from his uncle Jiang Huaiqing, Shen Yanzhi agreed.

After discussion, the Sun and Jiang families decided to hold the meeting that night.

After leaving the horse farm and saying goodbye to the investors, Shen Yanzhi straightened his clothes and drove to the location that Jiang Siyuan had sent him earlier.

The Sun family hosted this dinner, and they booked a private room at a well-known high-end restaurant in Beijing.

As Shen Yanzhi walked over, he happened to see a familiar figure two or three meters ahead.

Shen Yanzhi quickly walked up the steps and called out to him, "Cousin." "Huh?" Jiang Siyuan subconsciously turned around, saw Shen Yanzhi, smiled, and raised his hand to wave his phone: "I was just about to send you a message to ask if you've arrived yet."

"It took some time to get here from the horse farm," Shen Yanzhi said.

Jiang Siyuan understood: "You went to see a client again today?"

Shen Yanzhi nodded: "Mm."

The two brothers walked side by side, chatting as they went inside.

Jiang Siyuan quietly revealed a piece of information: "Auntie's promotion is a sure thing. The official document has already been issued, and we're just waiting for her to return from her business trip."

Shen Yanzhi's expression remained unchanged: "That's good."

Led by the waiter, the two brothers entered the private room together.

The private room was already quite full of people, filled with laughter and creating a lively atmosphere.

When Shen Yanzhi went in, he quickly glanced around and found that not only was Grandpa Sun there, but Grandpa Jiang was also there.

Besides them, there were two elders from the Sun family and other young grandchildren, as well as elders and grandchildren from the Jiang family.

Jiang Siyuan and Shen Yanzhi called out to someone in unison.

When Grandpa Sun and Grandpa Jiang saw the two of them in the private room, they quickly invited them to come in and sit down.

Jiang Xu had been there for quite a while. He had been talking to several younger members of the Sun family, but upon seeing his cousin and Shen Yanzhi, he immediately abandoned his friends and sat down next to Shen Yanzhi, groaning, "Brothers, you've finally arrived! We've been drinking tea here for ages!"

As soon as he said this, Sun Chentao's voice immediately came from behind him, ready to expose him: "Oh, oh, oh? Who was the one who spent the whole afternoon eating sunflower seeds and talking about entertainment gossip like crazy? Wasn't it you?"

Now everyone knows that after three years in the industry, he returned as an ordinary person, knowing nothing but a ton of gossip.

Many people even gave him advice, suggesting that he switch careers and become a paparazzi who would definitely become famous.

Besides Jiang Xu, Jiang Siyuan's younger brother Jiang Chi was also present.

He walked over and pushed Jiang Xu, the conspicuous bag, aside.

Jiang Chi is five years younger than Jiang Siyuan and three years younger than Shen Yanzhi. Jiang Chi already admired Shen Yanzhi a lot, but after Shen Yanzhi's car saved her father and brother that night, Shen Yanzhi's image in Jiang Chi's heart was elevated to godlike status.

He already knew from his own brother that after discovering the tire was punctured that night, Jiang Huaiqing and Jiang Siyuan had planned to have him drive to pick them up, but Shen Yanzhi saw them and that's how he got into Shen Yanzhi's car.

Although I didn't see the video of that night, I was able to escape unharmed from being sandwiched between a large truck and a private car.

Jiang Chi didn't believe he had that ability.

Not to mention, the truck driver and the two people in the private car all died on the spot. They were undoubtedly carrying out the mission with the determination to die together, so you can imagine how dangerous the situation was at the time.

“Cousin, if anything comes up in the future, just let me know,” Jiang Chi said solemnly.

Shen Yanzhi smiled faintly and patted his shoulder: "Let's eat, don't be so serious."

As it turned out, Shen Yanzhi was right.

Although the Sun family's intention in inviting Shen Yanzhi and the Jiang family to dinner was quite obvious, everyone tacitly avoided mentioning what happened that night.

After everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, Grandpa Sun and Grandpa Jiang left first, accompanied by Jiang Huaiqing and the two uncles from the Sun family.

When the two old men left, the younger generation still had reluctant expressions on their faces. However, once they were really gone, everyone felt relieved, and the atmosphere became much more relaxed and lively.

As soon as the elders left, the younger generation immediately decided to find another place to continue their fun.

Shen Yanzhi had already guessed that everyone wouldn't just finish their meal and go home obediently. Just as he was about to say goodbye, Jiang Chi and Jiang Xu grabbed him from both sides.

"Cousin, don't tell me you're leaving first!"

"Cousin, don't you ever relax after working all day? Life needs a balance. Work when you need to work, and enjoy life when you need to enjoy life. Even a primary school student understands this!"

The others echoed this sentiment:
"Exactly! Brother Shen, if we don't have fun and enjoy ourselves now, we'll be truly powerless to continue in twenty years!"

"Brother Shen is just too restrained. Don't worry, we definitely won't do anything reckless. We're just relaxing, and we're very innocent too!"

"Pah, you still have the nerve to say you're naive in front of Brother Shen? I wouldn't even dare to listen to you say that."

"Jiang Xu, you bastard! You dare to undermine me right in front of me?!"

"..."

In short, because everyone stirred things up, Shen Yanzhi, who originally wanted to leave first, ultimately failed to slip away.

Everyone was instantly transported to a luxurious bar.

As soon as they entered, Jiang Xu and his group ran into acquaintances.

If Chi Yu, who was inside Shen Yanzhi's pocket, could peek out, she would realize, "Oh, I've run into someone I know."

Oh my god! Little Bear was stunned. There was another round of competition! Aaaaaah, please vote for me!!!
