Chapter 542: A Person Who Has It All
Why am I even here? Shang Mingtao thought as he looked at how many people were at this party. They were dressed in different types of clothes. But Shang Mingtao knew it was to display their power and wealth.
And he was there too. He was forced to come to a party that he didn't want to attend.
"Make some friends at this party, son. Stop staying home and playing your games!" Shang Mingtao's father scolded.
You know I can't do something like this, old man! Shang Mingtao didn't want to come to this party at all. He wanted to stay home and play video games than come here to mingle with people he didn't know!
And he could tell the people here had no interest in him either! He wasn't the tallest or the most handsome at the party. He was average and had no redeeming features about him.
Shang Mingtao wanted to disappear from here now, but he noticed the look he got from his mother. She was by the side, talking with her friends. He knew he couldn't leave the party.
But as he wondered what he should do now,
"Isn't that the third young master of the Lu family?" Someone murmured, and everyone looked at the door.
Lu Chen was at the door, and Zhang Wenling was beside him. She had a smug expression on her face.
The Lu family's third son?
Tch! A guy who has everything! Shang Mingytao said with a dark expression.
Shang Mingtao heard everything about the third son of the Lu family. He was the direct opposite of who he was. He was all the talk. He beat up Bai Lei of the Bai family. Not only that, Lu Chen was famous for his looks in a magazine.
"Lu Chen, you looked so handsome in your magazine!"
"Can I have your autograph?!"
"I'm from the Xiao family."
Looking at him now being mauled by girls was enough to show he was a winner in life!
The two were widely different from each other. Shang Mingtao didn't look at Lu Chen anymore as he turned to his phone. He wanted to play games instead of talking with anyone.
While Shang Mingtao focused on his game, he didn't realize Lu Chen had glanced at him.
...
"Hah! I finally leveled up." Shang Mingtao said with proudness. He looked up to see the party dying down. But,
"Hello, may I sit here?" Shang Mingtao saw Lu Chen standing in front of him!
"Yeah...go ahead." Lu Chen nodded as he sat next to him with a plate of food, "Thank's a lot. There weren't many seats where I could sit down."
"...Yeah." Why is he sitting here?! What is with my luck?! He couldn't believe someone like that was sitting beside him!
"My name is Lu Chen, you?" Lu Chen greeted as he extended his hand.
"Shang Mingtao." Shang Mingtao said with a calm expression. He extended his hand back. Damn, he's so bright! It was as if the sun was right in front of his face. He was going to be blinded by the rays.
As he thought about how to leave,
"Isn't that the game people are raving about lately?" Lu Chen said with a curious look on his face.
"...Yes. There was a massive update." Shang Mingtao said cautiously. And Lu Chen smiled, "What a coincidence, I've been playing this game too."
"You do?!"
