Chapter 50: Chapter 50 Qingyun Clubhouse
After school in the afternoon, Lin Qingru returned home and tearfully recounted to her mother Fang Cui everything Su Yang had done at school.
Upon hearing that the wooden board thrown by Su Yang almost hit Lin Qingru, Fang Cui flew into a rage and immediately went to Lin Ze Ping, screaming that he must call off the engagement.
Lin Ze Ping certainly wouldn’t allow it, and the two of them had a huge argument before parting on bad terms. Listening to her father defend Su Yang, Lin Qingru trembled with anger, refusing to eat, and directly ran out of the house.
Liao Yuxuan happened to be nearby the Lin residence and saw Lin Qingru come out. He immediately picked her up and got her into his car.
"Qingru, what’s wrong?" Liao Yuxuan asked with a concerned look, "Did you argue with your dad again?"
"I really can’t understand, am I even my dad’s biological daughter!" Lin Qingru sobbed, "Why does he always stand up for that Su Yang, completely disregarding my feelings? He clearly doesn’t love me!"
A hint of hate flashed across Liao Yuxuan’s eyes. He had originally thought that today’s incident would change Lin Ze Ping’s opinion of Su Yang, but the outcome remained the same.
"It seems, Uncle has been deeply deceived by this Su Yang. We must come up with a way to completely change Uncle’s mind," Liao Yuxuan sighed, "Forget it, let’s not talk about this today. Come on, I’ll take you to a nice place!"
"Where?" asked Lin Qingru curiously.
Liao Yuxuan smiled and said softly, "Qingyun Clubhouse!"
"What?" Lin Qingru’s eyes lit up, and she said excitedly, "The Qingyun Clubhouse? You mean... the most prestigious private club in Nanluo City?"
"Of course!" Liao Yuxuan chuckled, "My dad is a senior member of Qingyun Clubhouse, and today there’s a small banquet. My dad got a few extra invitation cards. I’ve already called Zhao Yuanyuan, Tan Yan, and the others; we’ll go to Qingyun Clubhouse to unwind."
"You don’t have to be too upset. People like Su Yang, they’re simply not in the same social stratum as us. Not to mention anything else, just this Qingyun Clubhouse, he couldn’t step foot in it in his whole life!"
Lin Qingru’s anger turned into delight. She snorted coldly, "Let’s forget about such a person affecting my mood. Come on, let’s go there today to have a good time. Qingyun Clubhouse, I’ve heard Gu Yunfei mention it many times, but I’ve never been inside. Today, I finally get to go, this is great!"
...
After school, Su Yang planned to go to Six Degrees Bar to help out with Qiupeng. However, just as they reached the school gate, they were stopped by Zhou Xue’er, Fang Yun, and a few other girls.
"Su Yang, there’s a gathering tonight, come with us!" said Fang Yun, stating her intention directly.
"Me?" Su Yang was surprised, "Why should I go?"
Fang Yun immediately said with a pout, "What, don’t you want to go?"
Su Yang was at a loss for words; he had no experience dealing with girls.
At this moment, Zhou Xue’er came over, smiling, "The main reason is that our good friend is coming back from out of town tonight. We told her about the Bitter Sea and the celestial sounds, and she really wants to try them. So, I’ve come to find you."
Su Yang frowned slightly and said, "If she wants to try it, she can just go to Liudu Bar."
"She can’t make it there tonight..." Zhou Xue’er paused for a moment, then leaned in close to Su Yang’s ear and whispered, "Besides, you also need to give your friend and the girl he likes a chance to get closer."
Su Yang looked at Qiupeng, who was staring intently at a girl next to Zhou Xue’er. He remembered this girl, named Xie Wei. Qiupeng had a great chat with her the previous night, and they even exchanged contact information. It seemed Qiupeng was interested in Xie Wei.
"Heh heh..." Su Yang chuckled, "Well then, let’s go to this gathering!"
"That’s great!" Qiupeng immediately agreed excitedly.
Su Yang gave him a knowing smile. The best way to get him over a breakup was to start a new romance. If things worked out between him and Xie Wei, that would indeed be a good thing.
Zhou Xue’er smiled. She had some understanding of Su Yang’s character and knew that he definitely wouldn’t attend the gathering if they asked him directly. But using Qiupeng as an excuse made it much easier.
Fang Yun had already arranged for cars, and they split into two groups to get in. Su Yang and Qiupeng separated to give Qiupeng a chance, with Su Yang riding with Zhou Xue’er and Fang Yun. Along the way, the two girls sat on either side of Su Yang, causing him to sit upright and tense the whole journey.
The gathering was held at a secluded manor. After entering the manor’s gate, they drove around the premises for quite a while before arriving at an elegant seven-story building. At the entrance, a large sign read "Qingyun Clubhouse!"
"Qingyun Clubhouse?" Su Yang recalled the place mentioned by Ling Zi the previous night. Although he hadn’t come here last night, he ended up here this evening.
"This is the biggest private club in Nanluo City, famous even at the provincial level," Zhou Xue’er said with a light laugh, "The founder is Ling Zi, but the Qingyun Clubhouse is backed by the Hou Family. Otherwise, just Ling Zi alone wouldn’t be able to support such a large club!"
Su Yang nodded slowly and followed Zhou Xue’er and Fang Yun into Qingyun Clubhouse.
It was clear that Zhou Xue’er and Fang Yun had been to the place many times, as they didn’t even need to show their invitation cards to get in. However, Qiupeng, Su Yang, and Xie Wei had to use theirs.
Once inside Qingyun Clubhouse, Su Yang immediately noticed the sheer opulence of Nanluo City’s largest private club; a luxury that was unimaginable to the average person.
The group took the elevator straight to the third floor. The hall was brightly lit with many people already there. Oddly enough, almost all the attendees were young people of Su Yang’s age, whether high school or college students. Each one was dressed impeccably and was clearly not ordinary.
Compared to them, Su Yang, Qiupeng, and Xie Wei’s attire seemed plain, especially Su Yang in his casual tracksuit. Among this setting, he felt rather out of place, even less formally dressed than the service staff.
"Oh no..." Zhou Xue’er suddenly slapped her forehead and whispered, "I forgot to get you changed into another outfit first."
"Why change?" Su Yang was unfazed, "Is there something wrong with my clothes?"
"Your clothes..." Zhou Xue’er was at a loss for words. It’s not just bad, you look like you’re dressed to do manual labor.
Su Yang said, "You know, you care too much about these little details. Clothes are just meant to be comfortable to wear, why fuss over them so much!"
"Hey, now you’re lecturing me!" Zhou Xue’er didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
It was evident that Xie Wei was also overwhelmed by the scene. As the more introverted type of girl, witnessing the affluent and noble attendees made her clearly uneasy, and she clutched the hem of her clothes tightly with both hands.
Zhao Qiupeng stood beside Xie Wei, and seeing her like this, he quietly reached out and took hold of her arm, silently offering her some encouragement with his gesture.
Xie Wei’s cheeks flushed red, yet she did not pull her arm away. This action, however, thrilled Zhao Qiupeng to no end.
Su Yang watched all of this with a serene smile. He had come tonight to help Zhao Qiupeng find a match. By the looks of it, there was a real possibility of success. Su Yang didn’t continue to play the third wheel, allowing the two some privacy to enjoy their little world.
"Huh, Su Yang?" Su Yang was standing by the window, admiring the view outside, when suddenly, a surprised voice came from behind him.
Turning his head, he saw Fang Ziyu standing not far away, looking at him with astonishment.
Toward Fang Ziyu, Su Yang harbored some goodwill, and smiled faintly, "You’re here too."
"No, what... how did you get here?" Fang Ziyu was astonished, "Do you know Xiexie too?"
"Xiexie? Which Xiexie?" Su Yang was puzzled.
"The host of tonight’s banquet, Hu Xiexie!" Fang Ziyu was taken aback, "If you don’t know Xiexie, then how did you get here?"
"I invited him!" A voice came from behind, and then, Zhou Xue’er walked over from behind and took hold of Su Yang’s arm, smiling mildly at Fang Ziyu, "Sister Ziyu, so it turns out you know each other!"
Fang Ziyu’s expression changed a bit upon seeing Zhou Xue’er, then she forced a smile and said, "Oh, it was Sister Xue’er who invited him. Su Yang and I are classmates."
"I see." Zhou Xue’er exchanged pleasantries with Fang Ziyu with a light smile. It was evident that the two women knew each other, but their relationship was just average. In the matter of Su Yang, Zhou Xue’er seemed clearly hostile toward Fang Ziyu, which was rather strange.
Noticing Zhou Xue’er’s dissatisfaction, Fang Ziyu didn’t linger and after a brief exchange, she left. Her circle of friends was in another corner, and she returned there where Liao Yuxuan, Lin Qingru, Zhao Yuanyuan, Tan Yan, among others, were all gathered.
Among them was another group of young people who came from different high schools and were part of the same circle, generally belonging to the type of children from affluent families.
"Ziyu, who were you chatting with just now?" Zhao Yuanyuan asked with a smile, "It seemed like you were talking to a guy?"
As soon as these words were out, everyone around immediately began to tease Fang Ziyu with laughter, bombarding her with questions about this guy.
Fang Ziyu, looking embarrassed, said, "Stop messing around, it was Su Yang!"
"Su Yang!?" Lin Qingru, Liao Yuxuan, and Tan Yan exclaimed at once, with Tan Yan’s expression turning ghastly pale in an instant.
"Who is that?" a young man nearby couldn’t help but ask.
"Uh, he’s a new transfer student at our school," Liao Yuxuan casually replied, "Just a poor student, his family are farmers. Served in the army for three years, strong and bossy. He’s been throwing his weight around at school!"
"Psh, so the bar for throwing one’s weight around is that low now? Just serve a couple of years in the military, and you can strut around?" the young man spat out.
"Su Yang, how did he get in here?" Lin Qingru furrowed her brow as she asked. It was her first time at Qingyun Clubhouse; how could Su Yang possibly have been allowed in?
"Zhou Xue’er brought him in!" Fang Ziyu replied.
"Zhou Xue’er?" Everyone exclaimed again, "Which Zhou Xue’er?"
"Who else could it be?" Fang Ziyu responded with wide eyes.
"You don’t mean the Zhou Xue’er from the Zhou family? What’s her relation to this Su Yang?"
"To bring him to a gathering, there must be a special relationship for sure. Zhou Xue’er? When has she been so friendly with any guy?"
"The Elder Young Master Ding has been pursuing Zhou Xue’er for so long without a chance. And now a farmer’s kid gets her favor? Oh my god, what is the world coming to?"
"Third Young Master Ding is supposed to come tonight too; if he knows that his brother’s intended fiancée is mingling with a farmer’s son, tonight will really get lively!"
Hearing this, a sharp gleam flashed in Liao Yuxuan’s eyes.
