103: A net worth of hundreds of billions
In the study, Su Xi stared at the two words "Wang Chen" on the screen, took a deep breath, and pressed the enter key.
She waited for the page to redirect.
The next second, her mouth slowly widened.
"This? How is this possible?"
The information popping up on the screen was dense, but every single line was enough to shock her.
[Wang Chen, Male, 33 years old, actual controller of Chenxi Group]
Below was a long list of assets.
100% shares of the Ferrari Group!
100% shares of the Chanel Group!
Chairman of Chenxi Grand Hotel!
Founder of Chenxi Media!
Largest shareholder of Hongguo Short Drama, holding 51% of shares!
Second largest shareholder of TikTok, holding 31% of shares!
Behind-the-scenes boss of Dragon Shield International Security Company!
Known luxury cars under his name include a rolls-royce phantom, a Rolls-Royce Wraith, ten Cullinans, a bugatti black night sound, etc.
Additionally, he owns a Boeing 787BBJ private jet, costing over 300 million USD!
An office building, the Chenxi Building, in Yi City International Plaza, with a market value of approximately 1.5 billion!
Su Xi's fingers were trembling.
She continued scrolling down and found that these were only the "assets that could be found on the surface."
Some analyzed that Wang Chen might have even more assets overseas because Dragon Shield International's business spans over fifty countries worldwide.
Total assets were estimated to be in the hundreds of billions!
"Hundreds of billions..." Su Xi murmured to herself, feeling as if it were difficult to breathe.
She had guessed before that this Wang Chen was not simple, but she hadn't expected him to be this extraordinary.
33 years old, a net worth of hundreds of billions?
This could no longer be described as just "wealthy"; this was a true capital tycoon.
Moreover... she noticed a detail: personal information about Wang Chen on the internet was pitifully scarce.
Aside from these asset lists, photos secretly taken by netizens, and short drama stills, his family background, upbringing, and so on were all untraceable.
It was as if an invisible hand had blocked all this information.
Su Xi searched for "Dragon Shield International" again.
The information that came up this time was even more shocking.
[Dragon Shield International: A top global private security company. Business scope includes but is not limited to: security protection, asset guarding, crisis management, intelligence gathering... Headquartered in the Dragon Country Building in Hangzhou City, it has branches in seventeen countries, with over eight thousand professional security personnel and as many as 1,500 core members!]
[Dragon Shield International's most core team is code-named the "Twelve Zodiac Signs." Specific information is unknown, but it is rumored they have successfully executed high-risk missions in Africa many times with a 100% success rate.]
Su Xi leaned back in her chair and took a deep breath, her mind still digesting the information she had just looked up.
She suddenly realized that the villa she was living in now, with its pure Chinese-style decoration, was clearly worth a fortune. Combined with its location in Green City Peach Blossom Spring, it was worth at least several hundred million.
And this might just be one unremarkable property among Wang Chen's many real estate holdings.
"Su Xi, time to eat."
Wang Chen's voice came from outside the door.
Su Xi snapped back to her senses, hurriedly closed the web page, and cleared her throat: "Coming."
She stood up, straightened her clothes, adjusted her breathing, and opened the door.
Lunch was already set in the dining room downstairs.
Besides Wang Chen, there were three other people.
A young man in a suit with a steady temperament.
A burly man with a buzz cut and sharp eyes.
And a little girl holding a tablet who looked quirky and clever.
"Su Xi, come sit," Wang Chen smiled and waved. "Let me introduce you."
He pointed to the man in the suit. "This is Chen Yi, my right-hand man. He basically handles all the major and minor affairs of the group."
Chen Yi stood up and bowed slightly: "Hello, Miss Su."
"This is Chenlong, the Chief Instructor of Dragon Shield International. You've met him before." Wang Chen then pointed to the man with the buzz cut.
Chenlong nodded with a serious expression: "Miss Su."
Finally, there was the little girl.
"This is Yi Yao," Wang Chen laughed. "The Chief Technical Consultant of Chenxi Group. Her hacking skills are top-notch. She was the one who tracked your location last night."
Yi Yao immediately put down her tablet, her eyes sparkling as she looked at Su Xi: "Hello, Sister Su Xi! You're even prettier than in the photos! Brother Chen really has good taste!"
Su Xi's face turned red: "He-hello..."
"Sit down." Wang Chen pulled out the chair next to him.
Yi Yao had originally been sitting on Wang Chen's right side, but she suddenly jumped up and ran to sit on Su Xi's other side: "I want to sit with Sister Su Xi!"
Wang Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "What are you doing?"
"Getting close to a beauty!" Yi Yao said righteously. "Sister Su Xi is so good-looking, just looking at her makes me want to eat an extra bowl of rice!"
Su Xi was amused: "You really have a sweet tongue."
"Of course!" Yi Yao raised her little face proudly. "I'm Brother Chen's little bundle of joy!"
Cough! Wang Chen almost choked on his water.
Chen Yi and Chenlong both lowered their heads to eat, pretending they hadn't heard anything.
Su Xi was stunned for a moment, then reacted and chuckled softly.
This meal was much more relaxed than the one in the morning.
Yi Yao chattered incessantly, talking about everything from hacking techniques to short drama filming, and from entertainment industry gossip to which milk tea shop was the best.
Su Xi chimed in occasionally, and her mood improved significantly.
After finishing the meal, Wang Chen looked at Su Xi and asked, "Do you want to take a walk in the yard? It'll help with digestion after eating."
Su Xi nodded: "Okay."
Yi Yao originally wanted to follow, but Chen Yi grabbed her arm and dragged her away. "The boss and Miss Su have things to talk about, don't cause trouble."
"Hey, I can take a walk too... Chen Yi, let go of me! My tablet is going to fall!"
The two of them entered the study, bickering all the way.
Chenlong, meanwhile, silently went to stand guard at the door.
The villa's yard was very large, designed in a Chinese garden style with small bridges, flowing water, rockeries, and pavilions, all very exquisitely maintained.
Wang Chen and Su Xi walked side by side, neither of them speaking.
The afternoon sun was lovely, making people feel warm all over.
Su Xi stole a glance at Wang Chen's profile.
This man had saved her, given her a sense of security, and even said he would take responsibility for her.
More importantly, he had the ability to protect her and was not afraid of a colossus like the Xiao Family.
Maybe... trying to fall in love with him wouldn't be a bad thing.
She took a deep breath and made a silent decision in her heart.
[Ding! Detected S-Class Goddess Su Xi's intimacy +11, current intimacy 81]
Wang Chen's footsteps paused.
81 already?
It broke through 80 just like that?
He only then remembered that after being with Su Xi for so long, he hadn't checked her attribute panel yet.
"Youyou, open Su Xi's attributes."
