The corner of her mouth twitched, and Tong Yao glared fiercely at Chen Fan.
"Are you a pig?"
Chen Fan, however, replied seriously: "I don't know him well, so I need to ask clearly first."
He then turned to Tong Yao: "You seem to be very familiar with this Young Master Yan. Why don't you tell me about him?"
"What's there to tell?" Tong Yao snorted impatiently.
"Just tell me what kind of temperament he has, what his interests are, and so on."
Tong Yao hesitated for a moment but still said: "Brother Qing has a pretty good temper, very cultured. At least I've never seen him truly get angry."
"As for his interests, he likes to play with cars. Or rather, race cars."
"Race cars?" Chen Fan nodded, not particularly surprised.
Generally, these rich or powerful second generation kids all liked luxury cars.
"He doesn't just play with cars, he races them."
"And Brother Qing is very skilled at driving, he often participates in some underground street races. He's won the championship several times."
"Hou-zi, Xiao Si, and the others admire Brother Qing's driving skills, that's why they always hang around him. They seem to have a racing club or something..."
Tong Yao glanced at Chen Fan: "Besides that, Brother Qing also likes rock climbing and hunting. He's very good with guns, as you saw last time."
Chen Fan nodded, just about to say something when Tong Yao suddenly thought of something else.
"Oh right, Brother Qing also likes to play music. He formed his own band, all members are rich second generation and official second generation kids, but it's never really taken off..."
Chen Fan smiled: "I didn't expect this guy to have so many interests."
Tong Yao glanced at Chen Fan: "Brother Qing has a lot of personal charisma, you don't think everyone respects him just because of his status, do you?"
"Isn't it?" Chen Fan asked with a smile.
Tong Yao was stumped, glaring fiercely at Chen Fan.
"Of course not! At least not entirely..."
Then she muttered: "At least I'm not."
"Oh, you're so annoying. Are you going or not? If you're scared, then don't go."
Chen Fan shrugged.
"I've already agreed, it wouldn't be good not to go. Let's just go."
"If anything happens, you have to help me."
Tong Yao sneered: "Why should I help you?"
"We're friends, aren't we? You can't just stand by and watch if I'm in trouble."
Tong Yao laughed coldly: "Aren't I closer to them?"
"Don't worry, I definitely won't stand by and watch. I'll just close my eyes and not look."
Chen Fan chuckled, surprised to see this side of the aloof mayor's daughter.
The gathering place for this meeting was at a club in Yunhai.
To be honest, in both his lives, Chen Fan had spent the most time in Yunhai, yet he didn't know about this club.
The entire club was on a hillside, surrounded by fiery red maple trees, looking like a burning cloud from a distance.
Because he was following Tong Yao's car, Chen Fan's car was also allowed to follow in.
Seeing Chen Fan constantly observing the place after getting out of the car, Tong Yao explained: "This is a private club set up by a big boss. It's not open to the public usually. Only open to internal members."
Passing through a flower garden, approaching a beautiful fountain pond, the two arrived at one of the European-style white villas.
Chen Fan's gaze swept to the side, seeing various luxury cars parked around, some of which weren't even on the market in China yet.
Every short distance nearby, there were two men in suits wearing earpieces, obviously the club's security.
This looks pretty cool. I should have the club outfit all the security like this back home.
With these random thoughts in his head, Chen Fan followed Tong Yao into the building.
As soon as they entered, it was a completely different world. Luxurious decorations met the eye, even the words "golden and magnificent" weren't enough to describe this place.
Chen Fan couldn't help but sigh.
Some people really are born in Rome.
He had struggled for so many years, only to gain the opportunity to have tea and meals with these people.
Led by staff dressed in red cheongsams, the two came to a banquet hall on the second floor.
As soon as the door opened, a noisy sound immediately came out.
Wow, there are quite a lot of people.
Chen Fan looked around and found that almost everyone who came was under 30 years old.
The dinner was in a buffet style, and there was a stage on the side where a girl dressed in a super short skirt and sexy outfit was standing on the stage DJing.
The pounding music echoed throughout the venue, with many men and women dancing to the music around.
Tong Yao led Chen Fan to find Yan Qing, who was sitting on a sofa chatting with someone.
"I've completed my task, don't forget what you promised me."
Yan Qing chuckled: "Alright, I'll definitely invite you next time there's a race."
Tong Yao immediately smiled.
"That's more like it."
She glanced at Chen Fan, then went off alone to chat with familiar friends.
"Sit."
Yan Qing smiled and waved at Chen Fan, then said to his companion beside him.
"Go call Xiao Si, Hou-zi, and the others over."
After the person left, Chen Fan spoke up.
"Actually, there's no need to specifically talk about this matter, I've already forgotten about it."
Yan Qing stared at Chen Fan and chuckled.
"Although you're considered a businessman now, it's obvious you're not from our circle."
"In our circle, rules are rules. If there's a conflict between friends, of course we need to clear things up."
"Once both parties have cleared things up, if anyone dares to cause trouble afterwards, it's equivalent to cutting themselves off from the circle, and won't be accepted by others."
Just as he was speaking, Hou-zi, Xiao Si, and the group that Chen Fan had met once before came over.
As soon as they saw Chen Fan, their expressions changed.
"Damn, why is he here?"
"Who brought him in?"
"It must be Yaoyao..."
Yan Qing suddenly spoke up at this moment: "I invited Chen Fan to come."
"Xiao Si, Hou-zi, you guys come sit down first."
Hearing Yan Qing say this, the young men came over and sat down on the sofa, but each had an arrogant expression, crossing their legs and looking at Chen Fan with disdainful eyes.
Yan Qing smiled and stood up to introduce.
"No need for me to introduce, you all know each other already."
"I'll tell you guys, Chen Fan is here as my guest. The reason is because of what happened last time..."
Seeing someone about to speak, Yan Qing raised his hand to interrupt.
"What happened last time was actually just a misunderstanding, I think it's necessary to explain it clearly to everyone."
"Taking this opportunity today, let's all clear things up, have a drink together, and after this, no one is allowed to mention it again."
"Xiao Si, Hou-zi, you're not allowed to cause trouble for Chen Fan anymore."
The expressions of the group changed several times, but in the end, it was the skinny young man called Hou-zi who stepped forward.
"Fine. Since Brother Qing, you've said so, I can't not give you face."
He then casually picked up a glass of high-proof baijiu from the table.
He looked up at Chen Fan.
"Brother, sorry about what happened last time. From today on, let's call it even."
He drained the glass in one go, turned the glass upside down, looked up at Chen Fan, with a hint of challenge in his eyes.
Chen Fan hesitated for a moment, but finally picked up a similar glass of alcohol and drank it all.
Seeing this, the others also picked up their glasses and emptied them.
Yan Qing smiled faintly.
"That's more like it. From now on, no one is allowed to mention this matter again."
Hou-zi chuckled: "Since Brother Qing has said so, of course we won't do anything."
"Brother Qing, if there's nothing else, I'm going to dance."
"Go ahead."
This group of people came over, had a drink, and then noisily left, without saying a word to Chen Fan from beginning to end.
Obviously, they had not fully accepted Chen Fan into this circle.
