"Fengting Club? It looks really high-end!"
After getting off the bus, Chen Xihua looked at the building in front of her, which was not tall, only about ten stories high, with a somewhat ancient style, and estimated to occupy about five or six hundred square meters.
In the heart of Beijing, where land is incredibly valuable, operating such a high-end club is not something just anyone can do.
"Good eye. It's owned by the young master of the Bai family, but it's probably not just his business. It's very difficult to get a reservation here."
Huo Kai parked the car, walked over to Chen Xihua, and said something mysteriously.
When the two arrived at the private room that Huo Kai had booked in advance, there were already several rich young men inside.
There were also two young women, who were also part of their circle of rich young men and women.
These people are mostly around twenty-one or twenty-two years old, young men and women, some are still in university, and some have just graduated.
When they saw Huo Kai bring Chen Xihua in, they all looked over, and some even stood up, their eyes filled with curiosity.
"Go away, just take a look. Staring at that young girl, how can you be so shameless?" Huo Kai strode forward and kicked the man in front of him in the shin.
"Oh dear, we definitely have to take a good look at the 'brothers' that Young Master Huo brought," the man said with a smile, stepping aside.
"Chen Xiaowu, this is Guan Yunjie. His family is in the building materials business." Huo Kai began to introduce the people inside to Chen Xihua one by one.
"Li Han, Zhang Sen, Zhao Anna, Tang Yanhong..."
"Come on, let's get to know each other. This is Chen Xihua, Chen Xiaowu, a student from Peking University, and the top scorer in the college entrance examination. She helped me out, so she's like a brother to me now. You guys decide what to do."
Chen Xihua smiled slightly and said generously, "Hello, my name is Chen Xihua. Thank you, Young Master Huo, for bringing me here to broaden my horizons."
She was actually sweating profusely; Huo Kai had really introduced her to his friends as a brother.
"Chen, sit down quickly. You really are a pretty girl." Zhao Anna seemed to have noticed Chen Xihua's slight embarrassment as well.
After everyone got to know each other, Chen Xihua had a basic understanding of these people. They were all businessmen in Beijing, and second-generation rich kids.
My family is involved in construction, real estate, shopping malls, luxury goods, hotels, entertainment, and catering.
The people in the private room started eating, drinking, and chatting.
Chen Xihua sat next to Huo Kai, and she would occasionally ask him about the relationships among the upper-class figures in Beijing.
The three major families are the Lu family, the Jiang family, and the Liu family.
The Lu family mainly served in the military, the Jiang family mainly served in politics, and the Liu family also served in the military, but there seemed to be a trend of having no successors.
The Liu family and the Jiang family are related by marriage; the Liu family is the same family as Jiang Sisi's family mentioned earlier.
Other prominent families, such as the Xie family, Bai family, Shen family, Wang family, Zhou family, ...
"Anna, come closer, I'll tell you a joke, I just heard it myself."
I heard that young master Shen from the Shen family is in love with a girl from a small county, but little did I know that the girl's whole family are scumbags. There are six siblings in the family, all vain and greedy, and the five daughters all want to marry into wealth…”
Chen Xihua sat on the other side of the two rich young ladies. Her senses were more acute than the average person's, and she could vaguely hear what the two people next to her were saying.
Although no names were mentioned, why did she feel so familiar with it?
The Shen family? Dating?
Chen Xihua immediately recalled what her older sister had said during the summer vacation: that she had lost contact with Shen Changxing. At that time, her older sister said that the Shen family had high standards and lived in a military compound.
I just learned that the Shen family and the Lu family are related by marriage, so the threshold for marriage is indeed quite high.
She was certain that Zhao Anna and Tang Yanhong were talking about her family, saying that her eldest sister was trying to marry into a wealthier family.
For some reason, Chen Xihua was very angry and felt a tightness in her chest. What was all this about?
Lu family, Shen family, you bastards.
Shen Changxing, thankfully the eldest sister rejected him, she has no sense of responsibility.
She doesn't object to investigating her family's information; since they're related by marriage, it's necessary to investigate thoroughly. And whatever they find out is their business.
She had originally planned that if her eldest sister really wanted to date Shen Changxing, she would also investigate the Shen family after she came to Beijing.
But if they were investigating her family's information, shouldn't they have done it privately? Why make a scene so that everyone knows? That's their fault.
Whether it was intentional or unintentional.
She's furious! That Seventh Master Lu, isn't he?
No, she had to find a way to expose his secrets. She didn't care if he was the Seventh Prince or the 'Crown Prince'.
Anyway, as Huo Kai just said, the Lu family is a reasonable family and wouldn't bully the weak.
"Chen Xiaowu, what's wrong? You don't look well."
Huo Kai was chatting with other friends when he turned around and noticed that Chen Xihua's expression was strange and somewhat suppressed, so he immediately asked her what was wrong.
"Young Master Huo, I'm fine. I'm just a little tired from doing experiments this afternoon." Chen Xihua noticed that everyone was staring at her, so she quickly explained.
"Have you eaten yet? Let me take you back to school first." Huo Kai didn't think much of it.
After all, Chen Xiaowu is still a young girl, not yet an adult, unlike the rest of the group who will be playing until late at night.
It's already past 8 pm, so it's really not a good time to stay here too long.
"Okay, sure." Chen Xihua stood up, a little embarrassed, and greeted the people in the private room, saying that she had to go back to school first.
Then, smiling, he said he was happy to meet everyone.
——
When the two of them went down to the lobby on the first floor of the club, three young men walked in.
The three of them walked with unsteady steps, as if they hadn't slept well or were physically weak.
The man at the very front, around twenty-two or twenty-three years old, had his eyes light up when he saw Chen Xihua.
Isn't this the prettiest girl among the three sisters he met at the bus stop a month ago?
My cousin was talking about her.
He immediately smiled and said to Chen Xihua, "You must be Chen Xiaowu. My name is Liu Wucheng. Let's get to know each other and become friends."
"Young Master Liu, I'm sorry, she's my friend." Huo Kai had a bad feeling as soon as he saw the person who came.
"Young Master Huo, let's get to know each other, Miss Chen. Do you have a boyfriend? I really like you!" Liu Wucheng was very direct. This kind of girl is the easiest to win over.
He didn't pay much attention to Huo Kai, and looked at Chen Xihua with a mocking smile.
Chen Xihua was already in a bad mood and was holding back her anger. She was very unhappy to be stopped by a scoundrel.
Judging from Huo Kai's expression, she guessed that this person was from one of the three major families, the Liu family, and that it must be Jiang Sisi's doing.
"Oh, Young Master Liu, what do you like about me?" Chen Xihua asked calmly, as if she were puzzled.
Huo Kai, whose face looked very bad, wanted to quickly lead Chen Xiaowu out, but the three people in front of him deliberately stood apart to block them.
He also heard Chen Xiaowu speak, so he decided to check the situation first.
"I like that you're pretty!" Liu Wucheng thought smugly, smiling. What an ignorant girl. "I can give you anything you want."
"Really? Then do you know what I like?" Chen Xihua continued to ask, holding back her curiosity.
"Whatever, you say it." Liu Wucheng looked around, winked at his two companions, and said with a smile, in a very generous tone.
"I like that big courtyard next to the Forbidden City, can you give it to me?" Chen Xihua said in a cool voice, word by word.
hiss…
"Haha... Little girl, are you kidding? Do you know what kind of courtyard that is? It used to be a prince's mansion, covering dozens of acres." A man next to Liu Wucheng laughed mockingly.
Liu Wucheng's expression instantly turned somewhat ugly. "Are you going to refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a penalty shot?"
"I think you're joking with me. Besides, I don't drink alcohol, and I'm not even sixteen, let alone underage."
"Young Master Liu, I really want to ask your family's old master, twenty or thirty years ago, wouldn't your behavior have been considered hooliganism? In more serious cases, it might have even been..." Chen Xihua deliberately left out the last part, saying he wanted to eat peanuts.
The three men, including Liu Wucheng, suddenly looked uneasy and unnatural, and were also somewhat guilty.
They certainly didn't dare to act openly, no matter how sordid they were in private, but because of their family circumstances, there were some things they couldn't let others find fault with.
I thought I could get her with just a snap of my fingers. Little did I know, she turned out to be just a young girl.
If his cousin makes it clear, he won't come over.
How boring. Besides, there are already quite a few people looking over at the entrance of the club. Who in Beijing doesn't know Liu Ershao?
Also, even though it was nighttime, the lights weren't bright enough.
But Liu Wucheng had a vague feeling that he saw a familiar person at the very back of the clubhouse lobby.
Meanwhile, Chen Xihua, sitting opposite, was also weighing things in her mind. She had analyzed the Liu family in the private room earlier, and Old Master Liu was quite a figure.
Without Old Master Liu, the Liu family would have been suppressed very quickly.
Moreover, according to Huo Kai, Old Master Liu is at least someone who cherishes his reputation.
If you were to ask Chen Xihua if she was worried about getting involved with the Liu family, she would say yes. But worrying was useless; she hadn't started the trouble herself. Since they were now at odds, she had no choice but to tough it out.
She couldn't let herself be harassed and bullied by a scoundrel.
It seems her experimental plan needs to proceed more quickly.
She always knew that just being able to make money wasn't enough; she needed a powerful backer.
As for Old Man Qin, he might be able to protect her, but she still wants to rely on herself.
She had planned long ago to research two medications to prevent colds, one for cancer, and another to stop bleeding.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have applied for such a complicated and difficult major.
She was ready to submit it after she finished it.
Now, time is running out.
At this point, Liu Wucheng and the other two lost interest in talking to Huo Kai and Chen Xihua. They muttered a few curses and went inside.
Chen Xihua and Huo Kai also left quickly.
In the lobby on the first floor of the club, at the entrance to the private elevator at the far end, stood three men.
"Seventh Master, isn't that the fifth daughter of the Chen family?"
The one who spoke was Bai Feng, who had been watching the show for quite a while.
Wu Liangsheng took photos at the time, and the fifth daughter of the Chen family was the most outstanding and easy to recognize, even though she was still young.
Unexpectedly, she had already arrived in Beijing and even gotten involved with the young master of the Huo family.
"Hmm." Lu Zhengjing's tone was flat, as if it were none of his business, and he responded casually.
However, that girl didn't look like an underage person; she was too calm.
Xie Jinzhou, standing beside him, smiled, his expression somewhat meaningful.
