The wealthy man was standing next to a young woman with a striking appearance, and they looked like father and daughter by age, but their posture was ambiguous. The woman wore a mink coat and was covered in jewelry, exuding an air of opulence.
Lin Mo's starry eyes slightly furrowed.
Just as the security guard was about to ask Lin Mo to leave, a clear and clean voice like a silver bell sounded from inside, "Mo."
Everyone looked over and saw a young girl in a white short down jacket and jeans stepping out.
Her black hair cascaded like a waterfall, her long eyelashes, her fair skin with a hint of redness giving her a gentle beauty, her large spirited eyes, her pale chin, and her exquisite makeup made her look like a snow lotus blooming on an iceberg— so clear and pure, yet imposing a sense of sacred inviolability.
"Why did you co out?" Lin Mo smiled.
"This club requires a mbership card to avoid any trouble, so I rushed out to pick you up," Xia ngdie gently smiled, hooking her arm through his, leaning on Lin Mo's shoulder like a little bird relying on soone, acting like a spoiled young girl.
The wealthy man with shiny hair widened his eyes. Seeing Xia ngdie, he then compared her to the companion by his side, noticing the difference between a tractor and a Ferrari, truly feeling an envy that could kill.
Lin Mo and Xia ngdie walked into the club, where he lightly smiled and said, "The n outside were looking at like they wanted to devour , haha."
"Why?" Xia ngdie asked curiously.
"They're envious that I have a beautiful, peerless wife."
"You also have that childish vanity?" Xia ngdie covered her lips and giggled.
In Xia ngdie's heart, Lin Mo was a hero unmatched in the world, and such vanity was sothing only naive children would have.
"I'm not devoid of feelings, and having a beautiful wife is indeed sothing to be proud of," Lin Mo said seriously and affectionately, looking at Xia ngdie.
Xia ngdie's pretty face seed to be brushed with charming rouge, showing a hint of shyness.
With that, the two had already walked into a large hall of the vineyard, where several female staff mbers in maid outfits stood at the entrance; inside, there were several well-dressed n and won in suits and long dresses—clearly young ladies and gentlen.
Though the weather in Ha City was cold, these people had luxury cars with air conditioning and entered high-end clubs with heating, so naturally, they didn't need to wear too bulky clothes.
"ngdie, this must be your boyfriend, Xiao Mo," said a woman who seed to be just over thirty years old, coming over and looking Lin Mo up and down with a friendly smile.
The young woman had fair skin and was dressed in a simple yet sexy mature long dress, beautiful in appearance.
"Mo, this is Cousin Su Yingqin," Xia ngdie introduced quietly.
"Hello, Cousin," Lin Mo nodded slightly, greeting her politely.
Lin had never t these relatives of the Su Family at Xia ngdie's grandfather's birthday party in Imperial City, so he had never seen them before.
"I haven't t you before either. You must have a great ti while you're here in the Northeast," Su Yingqin said with a smile.
Lin Mo nodded slightly, just as a sudden voice rang out, "Yo, this is Sister ngdie's boyfriend, huh? He looks so ordinary."
The speaker was a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl with several braids, blinking as she spoke.
"How dare you speak to ngdie's boyfriend like that?" Su Yingqin glared at her.
This young girl was a third-generation descendant of the Su Family, nad Su Minmin. She had been clever and adorable since childhood, and was now in a gifted youth class in Shu Province, about to take the college entrance exam, and was the cherished gem of the Su Family.
Su Minmin pursed her lips, showing disdain.
"Kids have no manners; Xiao Mo, don't mind her," Su Yingqin said awkwardly.
"No worries," Lin Mo shook his head. With his current state of mind, there was no reason for him to bother too much with a little girl.
Then Xia ngdie introduced two other n; one of them, nad Niu Tao, wore glasses and seed scholarly. He was Su Yingqin's husband and worked in a governnt office, holding an important position as a director.
The other looked to be in his early twenties, quite handso, and was the son of the Family Head of the Su Family's third generation, nad Su Ze. He hadn't glanced at Lin Mo once and carried himself with an air of superiority.
Xia ngdie leaned in and whispered into Lin Mo's ear, "Big cousin is already thirty this year and still has no children. I heard it might be a health issue. Aren't you skilled in dicine? Could you check on her later? She's been really good to ."
"No problem," Lin Mo smiled in response.
Given his current status, there were few people he would personally treat, but Su Yingqin had a good nature and was ngdie's relative, so helping out was no big deal.
At that mont, Su Ze, sitting on the sofa, frowned and called out, "Manager Cheng, where is the wine I asked for?"
Right then, a middle-aged man in a suit and looking uneasy entered through the door, approached Su Ze, and hesitated, "Young Master Su, I'm really sorry, but our cellar's Donald brandy is out. Would you like to choose another bottle?"
"Was there not so just now? How could it suddenly be gone?" Su Ze frowned. What he drank was not the issue; the real problem was the affront to his dignity, especially in front of so many relatives of his clan.
Manager Cheng bowed and said, "Young Master Su, soone else bought it, and that person I cannot afford to offend either."
"So you're saying you can afford to offend ?" Su Ze stood up, his face growing fierce.
"I... I didn't an that," Manager Cheng, wiping the sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief, explained, "It was bought by soone from the Jiang Family."
The Jiang Family controlled Jiyao Hall, one of the leading pharmaceutical and costic companies in Northeast and even nationwide. Rumor had it they had partnered with a group from Shu Province, overtaking several competitors, and had now beco the region's largest company in costics and health products, at the height of their influence.
Though the Su Family was one of the Four Great Families of Northeast, they were only a branch, not the main family, and dared not oppose the Jiang Family.
"Cousin, let's just let it go. We're just here to have fun; we don't have to drink anything specific," Xia ngdie gently advised.
Su Ze was soone who cared deeply about face. Hearing Xia ngdie's words, he thought she was mocking him and scoffed, "Ha City is the Su Family's turf, who do the Jiang Family think they are?"
"Really? Young Master Su seems quite confident," a cold voice sounded from outside.
Imdiately afterward, two won and a man entered the hallway; the speaker was a young man in light purple suit, exuding arrogance.
Su Ze, Su Yingqin, and Su Minmin's expressions changed slightly, recognizing the man's status.
"If the Su Family invited us to be guests and discuss business, but now looks down on us, the Jiang Family, then we might as well forget about the partnership," the young man sneered.
