1120: Chapter 1120: The Capitalâs Crown Prince Circle (3) 1120: Chapter 1120: The Capitalâs Crown Prince Circle (3) Qi Shilong watched Ye Fei get into Zhou Tingtingâs car with a mixture of frustration and helplessness.
His car only had two seats, which was a major oversight.
He should have driven a larger vehicle.
Not only could he have shown off to Zhou Tingting, but he could have also subtly probed Ye Feiâs background.
How did Ye Fei become Zhou Tingtingâs childhood sweetheart anyway?
Zhou Tingting had been his neighbor since she was five or six.
If anyone deserved the title of âchildhood sweetheart,â it should have been him.
But now, there was no chance for that.
Qi Shilong couldnât very well abandon his car and squeeze into Zhou Tingtingâs vehicle.
The two cars set off together, with Qi Shilong leading the way to the gathering.
Since it was a gathering of young people, it wasnât held in any formal location.
Instead, they had booked an entire nightclub.
When Ye Fei and the others arrived, the nightclubâs parking lot was already filled with luxury vehicles.
This sight made Ye Fei sigh inwardly.
The attendees were all young people with no real earning power.
Their parents were officials, and the cost of any single car here would be several yearsâ worth of their salaries.
It was clear to Ye Fei that the corruption in the countryâs political system was deeply rooted.
Qi Shilongâs car was highly recognizable.
As soon as it entered the parking lot, it was spotted by people waiting there.
The nightclubâs owner and several young men and women rushed over, calling out âQi Shaoâ and âBig Brother Qi.â Some who were closer to Qi Shilong asked, âQi Shao, why didnât Miss Zhou come with you?â âSheâs in the car behind,â Qi Shilong replied, his mood soured.
Zhou Tingtingâs status was no less than Qi Shilongâs.
Upon hearing his response, the crowd turned to look at the car behind.
Although Zhou Tingtingâs vehicle was the least valuable there, no one dared to show any contempt.
Instead, their eyes were filled with respect.
When they saw Ye Fei get out of the car with Zhou Tingting, they were all stunned into silence.
Some couldnât help but exclaim, âYe Fei!!!â Ye Fei wasnât surprised that they recognized him.
He just smiled at them, while Zhou Tingting looked extremely proud.
Ye Fei was her childhood friend, her brother.
His impressive presence made her feel very pleased.
Qi Shilongâs face felt hot.
He had tried to intimidate others with his âNorth Qi, South Yeâ status, but now he felt like a fool.
However, he wasnât really scared.
In his mind, no matter how powerful Ye Fei was, he wouldnât dare to challenge the Qi family.
At most, Ye Fei might provoke some second-tier families like the Yi family or befriend the declining Song family.
âMiss Zhou Tingting, Master Qi Shilong, and Boss Ye Fei have arrived!â the master of ceremonies announced loudly at the entrance, making Qi Shilong feel very pleased.
His name was mentioned before Ye Feiâs, but he didnât realize that he was called âMasterâ because of his grandfatherâs status, while Ye Fei was called âBoss.â This was the reality of their societyâa time when people compared their fathers and grandfathers.
Without a powerful grandfather, Qi Shilong, though not a complete fool, was just an ordinary person.
How could he be compared to Ye Fei?
Ye Fei didnât care about such trivial rankings.
Once inside the hall, he looked around and saw, just as he had guessed, that everyone there was young, the oldest being around Qi Shilongâs age, in their twenties, and the youngest being just thirteen or fourteen.
But unlike ordinary kids their age, these teenagers were far from innocent, fawning over Qi Shilong.
Soon, Ye Fei spotted two familiar figures in the cornerâa boy and a girl.
The boy was handsome, and the girl was beautiful.
They were none other than Song Renzong and Song Ci, brother and sister.
From where they were sitting, it was clear which families were more powerful.
If this had been a regular gathering, Song Ciâs beauty, second only to Zhou Tingtingâs, would have made her the center of attention.
But today, beauty didnât matter.
These young people, influenced by their upbringing, valued power and status above all else.
The Song family was currently in decline, so its members were not given much importance.
The siblings had heard Ye Feiâs name announced by the master of ceremonies.
When Ye Fei saw them, Song Ci was excitedly waving at him.
If it werenât for Song Renzong holding her back, she would have run over already.
âTingting, Iâm going to say hello to some friends over there,â Ye Fei told Zhou Tingting before heading towards the Song siblings.
Everyone in this circle knew each other, so Zhou Tingting recognized Song Ci and knew she was Ye Feiâs apprentice.
She wouldnât object, but she was surrounded by enthusiastic young men and women and couldnât break free.
Reluctantly, she stayed behind.
âMaster, you came!â Song Ci said happily as Ye Fei approached.
Her beautiful eyes were filled with tenderness.
Although she had secretly sworn to be Ye Feiâs apprentice for life for her motherâs sake, emotions were not something one could control.
Compared to Song Ciâs excitement, Song Renzong was extremely respectful towards Ye Fei.
He called him âMr.
Yeâ as soon as he arrived.
Although they were around the same age, and Song Renzong was slightly older, Ye Fei was his sisterâs master and seemed to have some sort of ambiguous relationship with his aunt.
This made it impossible for him, who had been traditionally educated since childhood, to act as casually as his sister.
âReally?â Ye Fei asked curiously.
âYou knew I would come?â âMy brother said that since youâre in the capital and have connections with the Zhou family, youâd likely visit them.
And since today is the gathering, you might come with Zhou Tingting,â Song Ci explained, adding, âIf it werenât for that, I would have left already!â Ye Fei nodded inwardly.
Song Renzong was indeed sharp.
This analysis seemed simple, but it required strong reasoning skills and a lot of attention to detail.
After praising Song Renzong in his mind, Ye Fei asked, âIsnât this gathering set by your elders?
Can you just leave?â CREATORSâ THOUGHTS ShawnBee Hey, the new book Urban Seduction Adventure is out now!
