A faint smile outlined on the corner of Qin Shaoyang’s mouth. In order to realize the plan to set up the Universe Literature Media company, he stayed in Blue City for some time, aiming to unearth some excellent students in the Regal Classical Music Academy.

As a result, he accidentally bumped into Zhang Zitao there, and due to a small dispute, his friend suffered a bit of a loss and even got threatened despite acting low key. And now, he ran into Zhang Zitao again in Shanghai. Though he displayed a humble and scared expression on the surface, he secretly made up his mind to really pack up this fella by himself if this guy were to act rampant and unbridled.

But who would have thought that instead of provoking him again, this guy acted like he did not want to continue the dispute and neither did he want to bother him?

After seeing Zhang Zitao, Ni Jie followed the direction of his sight and her eyes then landed on Xue Yu, who was quietly reading a book. Despite being a woman, she was still amazed by her looks and was also subdued by her bearing. She finally realized why Zhang Zitao did not see her even though she stood in front of him.

“Is that young lady a friend of yours, Zhang Zitao? Why don’t you introduce us to her?” Ni Jie was originally pursued by Zhang Zitao. Even though she kept ignoring him, yet she too enjoyed the feeling of being pursued. But now she felt sour and upset upon seeing this that guy had a new target.

“Sshh… you’re bothering…”

Zhang Zitao angrily shifted his gaze to Ni Jie. But when he saw her, his voice came to a halt instantly and was seemingly afraid of being found out as he quickly glanced at Xue Yu, and then hurriedly got up and said with a smile, “Little Jie, how come you are here? I was just thinking about things, so I did not notice you, cough, cough…”

Ni Jie shot him a harsh glare and mocked, “Heh, I can tell that that beauty has captured your soul, isn’t that right? Speaking about her, her beauty is indeed outstanding and is definitely able to topple a kingdom. With an aura like an orchid in a secluded valley, her figure still looks evidently outstanding even though she’s only sitting there quietly. No wonder you’re completely bewitched.”

Zhang Zitao let out a hollow laugh, and then explained, “Little Jie, I don’t know her either. Also, you’re also very outstanding in my eyes.”

“Oh, shut it.” Ni Jie quickly waved her hand. “I’m not interested in you. I’d love to help you hook up with that beauty if you could stop pestering me. Alright, Shaoyang just came to Shanghai and we have something to discuss. Go appreciate your beauty yourself!”

“Young Master Zhang, we won’t accompany you,” said Qin Shaoyang with a smile.

Fickle as he was, it was simply Zhang Zitao’s natural instinct being fond of beauty. And in his eyes, Ni Jie was also his favorite woman. Now that she had a date with another man, it made him quite vexed. Just as Qin Shaoyang’s voice faded away, he immediately said, “Hold on.”

“Is there something, Young Master Zhang?” Asked Qin Shaoyang.

With knitted brows, Zhang Zitao said, “Who are you really? How can you know Little Jie?”

“Haven’t I already told you when we met in Blue City?” Said Qin Shaoyang with a smile. “I’m just a nobody who does a small business to make a bit of pocket money to take back home. I’m nothing but a dwarf compared to you, Young Master Zhang.”

Zhang Zitao’s brows furrowed deeper. The more modest Qin Shaoyang was, the more he felt that this fella was not as simple as he looked. Because he knew Ni Jie’s character – proud like a phoenix – and ordinary people would not be able to enter her eyes at all.

However, he was proud to the bone. This was Shanghai—his territory, and the woman who did not look at him in the eyes turned out to be taken by another man. Therefore, his complexion turned cold and he said in a heavy tone, “I don’t give a damn about your status or who you are. Stay away from Ni Jie, else I won’t mind to cash in what I told you in Blue City.”

Qin Shaoyang shot a deep look at him before he suddenly said with a smile, “I finally get it now why you kicked an iron plate a while ago. You know, there’s a line stated in the Art of War: Know thyself and know thy enemies, and only then will you be victorious in battle. You have yet to figure out the identity of who you are facing, yet you dare to act arrogant and provoke others. Could it be that you are not afraid that you will court a calamity upon your family?”

Zhang Zitao was shaken inwardly. He faintly felt that the last sentence spoken by Qin Shaoyang was somewhat familiar. After a while, he suddenly recalled it. It was at that time when he provoked Tang Xiu and he spoke these words to him.

Could it be…

With a change in expression, Zhang Zitao blurted, “Do you know Tang Xiu?”

“How can I not know him? Tang Xiu is the idol of all the scions and young ladies of the prominent families in Beijing. What’s wrong? Judging from what you said, you seem to know Tang Xiu too?”

Zhang Zitao’s heart tightened and he asked, “What is your relationship with Tang Xiu? Who exactly are you?”

At the side, Ni Jie looked at Zhang Zitao with some pity and said, “As far as I know, you went to Beijing last year, yet you boasted to those scoundrel buddies of yours that you got the qualification to enter Kangde Club, and then squandered a lot of money there for a couple of days. Don’t tell me you don’t know the owner of Kangde Club?”

“What?” Zhang Zitao was as though getting zapped by thunder, making him limp and numb.

Kangde Club? The highest-ranked club in Beijing that numerous scions of notable families in the country have been dreaming to be eligible to enter?
