Afterwards, Su Jingmo pulled out his phone and opened the childhood friend group he hadn't checked in a while. This group consisted of his close friends in the Beijing community. The group name was quite distinctive: "Gathering Place for Rich Youngsters in the Beijing Circle." It was obvious that it was named by a middle school student.
Su Jingmo opened the group chat and found that everyone in the group was frantically calling Shang Lu, asking him about Qu Qingdai, but Shang Lu did not respond at all and became invisible in the group.
Looking at these group messages, Su Jingmo smiled helplessly. What a bunch of people who just want to watch the fun and stir up trouble! Then, Su Jingmo, who hadn't been in the group for a long time, finally spoke up.
[M: Since everyone already knows about this, we should keep it a secret. If I find out who leaked the news before I get back, don't blame me for treating them well!]
[The Little Prince of Beijing Circle: Wow! I actually saw Fourth Brother appear!]
Lu Shangshang: Fourth Brother, I didn't say anything! I have the chat logs as proof!
Fu: Xiao Si, you've kept it a secret for so long! We didn't know about your marriage until over half a year ago! When you come back, you must apologize to us wholeheartedly!
[Q: @M, Second Brother, when will you bring your younger siblings back for us to see? Mom can't help but run to find you!]
[Jiuri: When will you return to Beijing? Bring it back so we can see it. If I hadn't been tied up, Shang Lu wouldn't have gone to Haishi. I would have gone instead.]
[Yiduoyun: I second the motion!]
【The Little Prince of Beijing Circle:+】
[Lu Shangshang: This is fate, lulululu~]
The system prompts "Lu Shangshang withdraws a message"
[9th day: @Lu Shangshang is really brave, I took a screenshot, I'll show you what I can do when I get back!]
[Lu Shangshang: Third brother, I was wrong. Please forgive me! Kneeling JPG.]
[The Little Prince of Beijing Circle: Serves you right! ]
[A Cloud: Serves you right! +]
[M: Once everything in Hai City is settled, I'll go back and help calm my mom down. Oh, and I've given my old bar in Jing City to my eldest brother-in-law. Guys, please take care of it!]
【Fu: OK】
Q: Yes.
[The Little Prince of Beijing Circle: Don't worry, Fourth Brother's brother-in-law is my brother-in-law, I'll take care of it!]
Su Jingmo looked at the chat messages in the group, shook his head helplessly, but a smile appeared on his face.

After Su Jingmo left, Shang Lu quickly called his assistant and instructed, "Go and call Bai Ren to come to me on the second floor. By the way, I'll have you preside over the affairs of the banquet hall. I won't be going down to entertain those wealthy families in Hai City."
"Yes, Mr. Shang!"
"Well, go ahead. Thank you for your hard work."
Shang Lu instructed his assistant. He thought to himself that since he couldn't see his sister-in-law, he should first complete the task assigned by Fourth Brother Su, and then go back to Jing City and wait.
In the banquet hall, Shang Lu's assistant quickly found Bai Ren, walked up to him and said, "Master Bai Ren, my young master invites you to the private room on the second floor."
This sudden scene stunned everyone around, and the banquet hall instantly became silent as if the mute button was pressed.
"Your young master is..." Bai Ren asked hesitantly.
"I can't elaborate on the young master's identity. You'll find out when you go up," the assistant responded.
"Okay, then I'll go take a look." Bai Ren said after thinking for a moment.
"Okay, please come this way!" The assistant made a gesture of invitation.
"Hey, wait, you only invited Bai Ren and not us?" Zhao Chenxiang asked hurriedly when she saw this.
"Sorry, there's only Young Master Bai Ren here. Please feel free to do as you please." After the assistant said this, he and Bai Ren left the banquet hall and went upstairs.
"Brother, look, why did you only invite him? What's going on with that big shot from Beijing?" Zhao Chenxiang said to Zhao Guangbai dissatisfiedly.
"I'm not sure. Let's wait and see. I don't know why the other party likes Bai Ren..." Zhao Guangbai said with a frown.
"Hmph, looking for Bai Ren, you have no vision!" Zhao Chenxiang said disdainfully.

"Knock knock knock, knock knock knock... Young Master Shang, Young Master Bai Ren is here." The servant outside the door said respectfully.
"Come in." Shang Lu's voice came from the box.
Bai Ren walked into the box full of doubts. His heart was filled with confusion and curiosity. He didn't know why Shang Lu was looking for him.
"Hello, who are you..." Bai Ren looked at the man sitting in the box and asked in confusion.
"Hello, I'm Shang Lu. Don't stand there, sit down first." Shang Lu said with a smile.
"Hello, Mr. Shang, what's the matter that you called me up here?" Bai Ren asked in confusion after sitting down.
"I won't beat around the bush with you. I heard that your Bai family and the Zhao family are fighting for a piece of land. Is that true?" Shang Lu asked directly.
"This... is indeed the case, but the Bai family is simply no match for the Zhao family. We're almost giving up. Are you going to..."
"That's fine. I can make this piece of land belong to your Bai family. Just tell me whether you want it or not!"
"Yes, yes, yes, of course! But I wonder what the Bai family will have to pay?"
"You don't need to pay anything. I simply can't stand the Zhao family, so I want to help you. How about it?"
"This... I'm so grateful. That being said, we shouldn't accept gifts without merit. The Bai family owes Master Shang a favor. If you need us in the future, we will definitely go through fire and water!"
"Okay, I don't need any of this. If you really want to help me, then the Zhao family should not cooperate with them in the future. This is also for your own good. Do you understand?"
