Chapter 809: 0809 Clearing Up Misunderstandings! (5th Update)

Ye Qiu had actually arrived early at the Roland Prestige Club’s evening event.

Ye Shuang left Ye Qiu by himself because a few people not far away were waving at her.

"Stay here and don’t wander around. I don’t want you causing me trouble," Ye Shuang instructed, not wanting to take Ye Qiu over; although he was somewhat handsome, his appearance was still styled by her. If she took him over to her friends and he embarrassed her, it would reflect poorly on her.

Moreover, in Ye Shuang’s mind, Ye Qiu was simply trying to use their shared surname to establish a connection with her and the Ye family.

Ye Qiu shook his head indifferently; naturally he would not listen to the young girl Ye Shuang, and strolled around on his own within the event hall.

The entire hall was extremely spacious, easily a thousand square meters, fitting hundreds of people without any issue.

Ye Qiu glanced around and realized this event was not much different from the usual ones he attended; it was just a gathering of like-minded people chatting about trivial matters.

As for the so-called VIPs, Ye Qiu did not notice many, perhaps because it was still early before the event started, with only young people huddled in small groups discussing their topics.

"Song Jie, haven’t seen you at these kind of events recently. What, ever since your arm broke, you’ve withdrawn from our Capital City’s young masters circle?" a young man bumped into Song Jie and his group, mockingly said.

"Chen Dong, spare people where you can, we haven’t provoked you, so please don’t provoke us," Jiang Hao spoke up.

Each young man present, being a part of Capital City’s young masters circle, had substantial backgrounds; Chen Dong was no different, his father’s power was no less than that of Song Jie’s father. Consequently, as equals among these young masters, Chen Dong did not hesitate to openly mock Song Jie.

"Jiang Hao, this isn’t your place to interrupt, I’m talking to Song Sha. You better keep quiet and remember your current standing with the Jiang family," Chen Dong disdainfully admonished, scolding Jiang Hao.

Luo Ming also wanted to stand up, but Chen Dong gave him a look and said: "What? You want to defend Song Jie too? It seems your trio’s relationship is quite solid."

"Jiang Hao, Luo Ming, don’t mind him, he’s just a strutting dog," Song Jie stopped the two and coldly retorted.

Although often encountering each other in the same circle, these young masters of Capital City were not always harmonious, each having their own cliques. They all represented different family interests, with those in good relationship often sharing deep cooperation and even mutual assistance in power.

Hearing this, Chen Dong immediately showed anger: "Song Jie, wait till your father steps down, I’ll see how you dare arrogance in front of me, then don’t expect any mercy from me."

Song Jie smiled and ignored Chen Dong, pulling Jiang Hao and Luo Ming aside.

"Hmph, one day I’ll show you the consequences of provoking me," Chen Dong bitterly said.

The trio moved to a corner, Jiang Hao continuously cursed Chen Dong, "What kind of person is this? In the past, he would respectfully call us Brother Song, Brother Jiang. Now that his father has gained power and climbed into the Liu family’s good graces, he thinks he’s ascended to heaven. If it wasn’t for his father’s backing, I would beat him so bad his own mother wouldn’t recognize him."

"He’s a scoundrel, someone will deal with him sooner or later," Luo Ming said.

"Let him be arrogant for now. Our three families’ power can’t compare to the Liu family. Chen Dong clinging to Liu Wen’s coattails is nothing but Liu Wen’s dog, and even his father is no different," Song Jie said with a flickering gaze, feeling a humiliation today he had never experienced before. Only the Four Young Masters of Capital City could make him restrain himself. Moreover, he could not afford to bring more trouble to the Song household, as his mother had instructed him before coming to not cause more trouble for the family, which was not having an easy time.

"Yeah, let the villain be complacent for now, sooner or later he’ll provoke someone significant and taste bitterness," Jiang Hao cursed.

The party certainly did not lack delicacies, and Ye Qiu’s attention wasn’t on the surrounding scions but on sampling pastries while appreciating the beauties continuously entering through the door.

After watching for a while, Ye Qiu found it insipid as there were too few that caught his eye, with most being young girls hardly worth a second glance.

Ye Qiu could only focus all his attention on the food in front of him.

Although having reached his level, he had no particular demands regarding food, the taste here was still quite good, even better than what he had previously eaten.

Just as Ye Qiu was pondering which dessert tasted best and hesitated, a surprised figure exclaimed before him.

"Ah, it really is you."

Ye Qiu looked up and saw a somewhat familiar face.

This girl is...

"You don’t recognize me anymore?" The girl in front of him seemed a bit angry; she didn’t expect Ye Qiu to fail in recognizing her immediately.

"Sorry, I really can’t quite remember you, but you do look familiar, like I’ve seen you somewhere before." Ye Qiu said awkwardly.

"I’m Ma Lingling, Mu Wanqing’s best friend. We’ve met on the cruise." The girl revealed her name.

Only then did Ye Qiu remember, hastily saying, "I’m sorry, I really didn’t recognize you."

Ma Lingling huffed, "I see you only remember our Mu Wanqing. Everyone else is just passing clouds to you."

Ye Qiu smiled wryly, "Not at all, it’s just that you are dressed so beautifully today, I didn’t recognize you right away."

As soon as Ma Lingling heard Ye Qiu complimenting her beauty, the anger on her face somewhat dissipated, but in a blink, she caught the insinuation and said angrily, "So you mean I wasn’t pretty before?"

"Blame me, blame me, I misspoke; Miss Ma has always been beautiful." Ye Qiu quickly corrected himself.

"Hmph, that’s more like it. Don’t call me Miss Ma, just Ma Lingling will do." Ma Lingling kind of forgave Ye Qiu and then asked, "What brings you here anyway? This place isn’t accessible to just anyone."

Ye Qiu gestured with his hand, and Ma Lingling leaned in to listen as Ye Qiu mysteriously said, "I was invited here."

Ma Lingling looked skeptical. This place wasn’t one that just anyone could invite you to. Without a certain status in the Capital City, you simply couldn’t even get in; even she was only here due to her father’s connections.

Ma Lingling didn’t believe Ye Qiu had any significant background in the Capital City, otherwise, he wouldn’t be working as a bodyguard in Zhongshan City.

Thinking this, Ma Lingling figured it out; perhaps Ye Qiu was invited as security personnel to help maintain safety at tonight’s party. The more she thought, the more she felt her guess made sense, as this reasoning seemed more plausible.

"By the way, that day at the amusement park, what exactly is your relationship with that woman and child?" Ma Lingling asked.

Uh...

Ye Qiu recalled that day when he, along with Fang Sijie, took Yinyin to the amusement park and happened to run into Mu Wanqing, Ma Lingling, Sun Yijia, and others.

It was quite awkward, and Mu Wanqing just greeted them and left.

Seeing Ma Lingling looking like she was digging for an answer, Ye Qiu helplessly smiled and said, "A friend."

"Not your wife and daughter?"

"Of course not."

"Oh, yeah." Ma Lingling got a bit overly excited.

Ye Qiu, watching Ma Lingling, couldn’t help but say, "Why so happy, you aren’t planning to chase me, are you?"

Ma Lingling rolled her eyes at Ye Qiu and said, "Don’t flatter yourself, I’m just clarifying things for our Wan Qing. She’s been rather down since that day."

"You are the root cause of the trouble."

Ye Qiu scratched his head awkwardly, not knowing what to say.
