Return of the King, Dominating the City
Chapter 69 - 69 68 Master Actor

69: Chapter 68: Master Actor 69: Chapter 68: Master Actor “Hello, Mr.

Song, I’m very happy to see you,” Su Qin restrained his anger and squeezed out a smile.

Su Qin didn’t know who the eldest son of the Song Family was, but he was very clear that in Huaxia, no Song Family was easy to provoke, let alone the pillar of the home, the legitimate eldest son.

Being out and about, not on his own turf, Su Qin thought it best not to offend anyone, as having one more friend was better than one more enemy.

Who knew if someone would stab him in the back?

Thus, he took the initiative to express his goodwill towards Song Yun.

Song Yun, acting like he was the boss, didn’t even deign to glance directly at Su Qin.

Although he didn’t know how true young masters were supposed to interact with people, he felt sure that a certain degree of arrogance was necessary.

As he didn’t have the status, adding a bit of arrogance might lend credibility to his persona.

Sometimes, human nature is cheap; if you are too polite, they might start to think there’s something wrong with you.

Song Yun turned his face away and coldly asked Li Shishi, “Who is this kid?”

Li Shishi thought to herself, how would I know who this kid is?

This kid came over without revealing his background or status, simply confessing his feelings for Xiaoqing, which was quite annoying to her.

Although Xiaoqing seemed naive, she wasn’t dumb and clearly understood the intentions of both, so she cooperated well and said, “Senior Brother Song, let me introduce him.

This is Su Qin from the Jiangnan Su Family.”

Seeing Xiaoqing intimately lean on Song Yun’s back and whisper to him, Su Qin felt extremely uncomfortable.

He had been here for most of the day and hadn’t even gotten through the door, let alone been offered water.

He had been standing outside for so long that even his legs had gone numb, yet this Mr.

Song had just arrived and was already welcomed in by Xiaoqing and Li Shishi.

It was surely a case of comparing goods making one throw away one’s stock, and comparing people, one would feel despair.

“The Su Family?

Or the Jiangnan Su Family?” Song Yun frowned and pondered for a while.

“Yes, yes, the Jiangnan Su Family.

Our family has contracted most of the silk and ceramics industries there, so we have quite a reputation there.

If Mr.

Song ever visits Jiangnan, be sure to give me a call,” Su Qin said with a smile plastered on his face.

“Oh, though I don’t know your Jiangnan Su Family, it does sound impressive from what you say.

I’ll keep your business card,” Song Yun casually took Su Qin’s business card and placed it on the side table.

Hearing Song Yun’s words, Li Shishi nearly died of laughter.

The rascal played his part quite convincingly—had she not known him, she might really have thought that he was an arrogant and spoiled young master.

Song Yun accepted the tea that Li Shishi handed him and said, “Our grandpa loves wearing Zhongshan suits.

He used to order his clothes from the silk king Wang Xin’s family in Shuzhong.

I wonder, when compared to the Xin family’s, whose clothes are more impressive?”

“Hehe, the Xin family takes the international high-end route, and our Su Family takes the domestic mid-to-high-end route.

These aren’t really on the same level.

If you really want to order from us, we will absolutely use the best materials and designers to custom-make it for you,” Su Qin said with a laugh.

This time it didn’t seem fake.

Ordinary people can’t afford silk clothing, especially since the highest grade of silk clothes sold by the Xin family in Shuzhong could only be custom-made with an expenditure of tens of millions.

This Song Yun was definitely a young master from a major family.

“Hehe, it’s not for me—our grandpa likes to wear silk-made Zhongshan suits,” Song Yun shrugged.

Hearing this, Su Qin’s face paled a bit.

The man in front of him was truly no simple character, able not only to have clothes tailor-made by the Xin family but also displaying immense pride.

What was most important was his statement that it wasn’t for him, but for their grandpa.

Perhaps ordinary people didn’t grasp the concept of ‘grandpa’—to outsiders, a grandpa was just an elderly man.

But in high society, ‘grandpa’ was a signal; every elder was treasured within their families, especially in large ones.

It could be said, as long as the family elder was alive, no one would dare cause trouble.

But if the elder passed away someday without anyone strong to uphold the family’s face, leading to discontinuity, the family might not die but would be severely weakened.

“Ha-ha-ha, so it’s Mr.

Song who loves wearing silk clothes.

If you ever need anything in the future, just give Little Su a call.

I wonder if Mr.

Song could leave an address so that when each new model of Zhongshan suits is made, I can have them sent to you promptly.

Consider it a token of respect from someone younger,” Su Qin quickly adjusted his facial expression and tone before having a complete understanding of his opponent, not daring to make a premature move.

He had to swallow his frustration for now.

“It’s getting late.

How about I host a lunch to thank everyone, especially since I had such a delightful conversation with Mr.

Song today?

You must grace us with your presence,” Su Qin said with a smile.

Song Yun glanced at Li Shishi, who appeared to be letting him decide, and said, “Maybe next time.

I’ll host you on my next visit.

I have some errands to run today with Xiaoqing, sorry about that.”

Su Qin’s face stiffened when he heard Song Yun mention his relationship with Xiaoqing openly.

Even the most scheming man feels uncomfortable seeing the woman he intends to woo with another man.

“If that’s the case, then I’ll take my leave for now.

I hope to have a drink with you sometime soon, Mr.

Song.

Don’t refuse me again then,” Su Qin quickly adjusted his facial expression and tone.

Before he fully understood his opponent’s situation, he couldn’t afford to act rashly.

He would just have to hold in his resentment for the time being.

“I’ll be heading home in a few days.

I’ll be waiting for you in Jiangnan,” Su Qin said half-jokingly.

By stating this, he subtly provoked Song Yun a bit by ambiguously revealing his relationship with Xiaoqing, taking the initiative.

Song Yun might even think that he was a third party interfering, or perhaps even consider him as a mistress.

Looking dashing and debonair, Su Qin drove away.

Once Su Qin’s car was out of sight, the two women suddenly focused their eyes on Song Yun’s face.

“Eh, why are you two looking at me like that?

Did I do something wrong?” Song Yun said with some trepidation.

In his former career as an assassin, he had played a hero, a bandit, a thief, a police officer, and even a nurse, but never a wealthy young master.

This was his first time giving such a performance for Xiaoqing, and it made Song Yun quite embarrassed.

Indeed, the persona of a young master that Song Yun portrayed was extremely challenging.

They all come from good families with very strict upbringing, so they try to appear approachable in their interactions, yet an inherent arrogance always makes them seem superior.

Song Yun’s portrayal perfectly captured the essence of both traits, making him appear approachable while also creating a sense of distance that seemed unfathomable.

No wonder even the worldly-wise Su Qin was fooled.

Their kind has a very sharp eye for people.

Anyone not from that class is easily exposed through their words and expressions.
