The city's number one tycoon - Chapter 287
A crisp sound of breaking bones rang out as Ma Yunteng stomped on the gold-plated man's leg, breaking it. He lay on the ground, unable to stop howling in pain!
"You haven't even figured out how to play with your own woman, and you're already thinking about playing with someone else's! Idiot!"
"Brother Teng, watch out!" Xia Yuxin suddenly shouted in panic because she saw a man behind Ma Yunteng holding a dagger and stabbing him directly in the back.
With a light tap of his foot, Ma Yunteng vanished from his spot. When he reappeared, he had two fingers gripping a dagger that gleamed with a cold light. With a sudden burst of force, he snapped the dagger in two!
Clap clap clap!
A round of applause came from behind, and then a familiar face walked towards Ma Yunteng: "Not bad, not bad, you've practiced, huh?"
The newcomer was none other than the man who had impersonated Ma Yunteng. He looked at Ma Yunteng with a smile and said, "I'll offer you a million a month. Stay here! I happen to need a decent bodyguard!"
This man's voice was extremely confident. If this philanthropic auction went smoothly, he could rake in at least 50 billion. What would he need most then? Definitely a highly skilled bodyguard like this! After all, with so much money, what if he got robbed?
Forehead!
Upon hearing this, Ma Yunteng found it hilarious! A fake Ma Yunteng was actually asking the real Ma Yunteng to be his bodyguard!
Could it get any more ridiculous?!
The real Ma Yunteng possesses superb martial arts skills such as Lingbo Weibu and Yi Jin Jing, so why would he need bodyguards?
“No interest!” Ma Yunteng shook his head and refused outright.
"Huh? Haven't you heard of Calorie Group? Haven't you heard what kind of person Ma Yunteng is?" The man laughed loudly. How dare someone refuse Ma Yunteng's invitation! Countless people at today's Hainan Rendez-Vous are desperate to get close to him, but this guy in front of him seems to know nothing about Ma Yunteng!
"Never heard of it!" Ma Yunteng shook his head again!
"Kid! Are you blind?! Our boss is the behind-the-scenes bigwig of Calorie Group! His net worth is in the hundreds of millions! The earth can hardly contain us anymore! Asking you to come and be his bodyguard... that's your good fortune! How dare you refuse?" said a henchman in a suit.
"Mr. Zhao has a bit of a temper, young man, please don't take offense!"
The man maintained his calm smile and continued, "Money is no problem for me! I've never paid my bodyguards less than a million a month. Name your price if you don't believe me!"
The voice was full of pride and self-satisfaction.
"Let me drive as I please?" Ma Yunteng asked with a strange laugh.
"Go ahead and drive! What are you chickening out for in front of me!" The man smiled smugly. In his eyes, Ma Yunteng was just an ordinary person. Even if he let you drive, how much could you possibly drive? 100,000, or 200,000? Hmm?
"Since Mr. Ma is so sincere, then I'll open it! Actually, my requirements aren't high!" Ma Yunteng said with a chuckle.
"During the trial period, I'll give you a 20% discount. You only need to pay me 100 billion per month. I don't have high demands for other benefits. Two villas worth 1 billion each will be enough, and a few dozen sports cars like the Bugatti Veyron will suffice! Oh, and don't buy me too expensive helicopters. Around 10 billion each will be enough for me... After we've worked together for a while, Mr. Ma will realize that I'm actually quite frugal. Hmm."
(P.S.: Something came up, sorry for the late update! I can only do my best to update today, I'll make up for the missed updates tomorrow!)
Thank you to "Anonymous Junior" for the 1200 book coins reward, thank you to "Cute Foodie Is Not a Crime" for the 100 book coins reward, and thank you to "Just Right" for the 100 book coins reward. Thank you!

Chapter 198 My Name is Ma Yunteng [Second Update Following Yesterday!]
When Ma Yunteng said this, everyone was stunned.
"Kid, are you out of your mind for money?" one of the henchmen said as he stepped forward.
“That’s interesting,” said the man impersonating Ma Yunteng.
This man is actually a rich second-generation from H City named Chen Hao. He learned that Ma Yunteng was very popular in Jiangnan City, so he thought of using Ma Yunteng's name to swindle people. He came here today to make money. Once he gets the money, he will go directly to Dubai. He has already obtained his passport, and there is a helicopter on the yacht, which will make it very convenient for him to escape.
"You flatter me, I'm just stating the facts," Ma Yunteng said seriously.
"Good! Young man, you have ambition. I believe in you!" Chen Hao gestured to his underling behind him, and the underling immediately handed Ma Yunteng a business card. He handed over the card with an extremely arrogant expression, as if receiving their boss's business card was a great favor.
"What is this?" Ma Yunteng asked, knowing the answer already.
"This is my business card. I own the Calorie Group. If you ever change your mind, feel free to contact me. Although I can't give you the conditions you mentioned, I can guarantee you a life of wealth and luxury without any problem," Chen Hao said.
Ma Yunteng was laughing inwardly. Calorie Company was actually his own? He said it without batting an eye. Damn it, if Calorie was yours, how was I, the real Ma Yunteng, supposed to put myself in this situation?
"Oh, thank you, Mr. Ma!" To make it seem more convincing, Ma Yunteng accepted the business card. Chen Hao nodded in satisfaction and then led his men toward the auction house on the third floor.
"Brother Teng, why is he impersonating you?" Xia Yuxin, standing to the side, almost burst out laughing. She hadn't expected Ma Yunteng to have such a talent for acting; the impersonation was incredibly convincing.
"Who knows? Maybe he wants to imitate me because I'm too handsome. Sigh, what's that saying again? Always being imitated but never surpassed, that's me." Ma Yunteng laughed and pulled her into his arms, heading towards the third floor.
"Tch, all you do is be narcissistic," Xia Yuxin said disdainfully.
"Who's narcissistic? This is a fact, okay?" The two joked as they walked up to the third floor.
Upon arriving at the entrance, Ma Yunteng was stopped. Two rows of security guards stood there, their expressions very serious. Because he didn't have an invitation, he was immediately turned away. Although many wealthy people had come aboard the cruise ship, only the truly wealthy among them were allowed to enter the auction. Chen Hao had only sent invitations to some genuine second-generation rich kids or those with a net worth of over 100 million. People like the "nouveau riche" were out of luck.
"Sir, please show me your invitation," a security guard said.
“No,” Ma Yunteng said calmly.
"I'm sorry, but only invited guests are allowed in. Please step back so you don't block the way for the guests behind you," the security guard said disdainfully.
“But I have money.” Ma Yunteng chuckled.
"Rich? How much money could you possibly have? I think you'd better not go in. The people who came in here today are all real tycoons in Jiangnan City. Any one of them is worth over a hundred million. You just want to go in and get close to them, right? Hurry up and leave. I've seen plenty of people like you."
The security guard has already turned away many people today, including many nouveau riche, second- or third-tier celebrities, and well-known young models.
