Chapter 247 - A Gathering
However, the premise was that Min Nan really had no chance of winning.
After all, she had spent a lot of effort on Min Nan all these years before she was able to make a selfish young master like Min Nan dote on her so much.
Since she had spent so much effort, she really couldn"t bear to desert him if she didn"t have to.
Min Sisi was smart and likable. Min Nan was a little tempted when she said that she would help him woo Yu Chen.
He clenched his fists and gritted his teeth. "Alright, I"ll go!"
"So, Big Brother, who else did you meet at Mei Feng that day?"
Just as Min Nan was about to speak, Min Sisi saw his slovenly face and frowned. "Forget it. Brother, tell me after we meet her. I"ll go back to my room to change. Brother, you clean up too. After you"re done, we"ll meet in the living room of the main building."

"Cousin, didn"t you say that you have to work today?"
In a certain car, the girl sitting in the front pa.s.senger seat asked the woman who was driving.
There was a boy in the back seat.
"A colleague had something on and couldn"t go to work tomorrow, so she changed s.h.i.+fts with me at the last minute."
"Cousin, it"s rare for you to take a break. You should rest well. You don"t have to specially accompany us. Cousin and I can walk around the capital ourselves."
These three people were Yu Chen, Luo Qiu, and Luo Yikun.
Yu Chen was already in a bad mood after being humiliated in public. When she heard that Min Rufeng was still on leave and had gone to Meifeng, her mood became even worse.
However, Luo Qiu kept talking, so she was a little annoyed.
If she hadn"t needed an excuse when she b.u.mped into Min Rufeng and the others, and Min Sisi had asked her out and she decided to matchmake Min Sisi and Luo Yikun, why would she have brought these two poor relatives along?
Cousin? What kind of relations.h.i.+p could cousins who had just met for the first time have?
She glanced in the rearview mirror.
And Luo Yikun. She thought that he would be different from the rumors since he had helped Luo Qiu seize the power of the Luo Family.
In reality, what difference was there?
He was just a playboy. The way he looked at her was disgusting.
At that moment, Luo Yikun, who was playing with his phone in the backseat, suddenly looked up and met Yu Chen"s gaze in the rearview mirror.
Yu Chen was shocked and quickly looked away.
It was as if Luo Yikun had sensed her sizing him up and warned her on purpose.
Yu Chen cursed inwardly.
Why was she afraid of a 19-year-old boy?
She looked at the rearview mirror again and Luo Yikun continued to play with his phone.
Yu Chen heaved a sigh of relief. It was indeed her imagination.
"It"s fine. I don"t like to stay at home anyway. Just treat it as going out to relax. Qiu, don"t feel pressured. Speaking of which, I still have to thank you for accompanying me."
She did not see that Luo Yikun, who was still playing with his phone with his head lowered, had a cynical smile on his lips.
He had interacted with countless women and seen all kinds of people. He could see through the hypocrisy of the eldest daughter of the Yu Family at a glance.
He didn"t intend to follow them out today, but he did because he was worried about Luo Qiu.
With Luo Qiu"s blockhead, she would probably still help the other party after being schemed on.
As for the eldest daughter of the Min Family that Yu Chen had mentioned previously… No, it should be said that the eldest daughter of the Min Family was interested in him. In the past, he might have been interested too, but now…
He looked at the chat records on his phone.
Note: Little Guizi.
There were more than 10 messages in a row and they were all from Little Guizi.
They were things like "I heard that you went to the capital", "You"ve harmed enough women in North City. It"s best if you restrain yourself when you go to the capital. Anyone you b.u.mp into on the streets in the capital might be influential. Don"t get beaten to death on the streets", "It"s best if you don"t die in the capital. We haven"t settled our debts", and so on.
He replied with a few words: "Do you care about me?"
Then, the other party exploded: "Who the h.e.l.l cares about you! Jerk!"
Luo Yikun smiled and didn"t reply.
Instead, he just stared at his phone with a frown.
The eldest daughter of the Min Family…
Tsk, he had heard of this person.
He had heard about her a long time ago. Moreover, Old Master Yu had specially mentioned her last night when he spoke to him.
However, to be honest, he wasn"t looking forward to meeting this eldest daughter of the Min Family very much.
"Kun, is this your first time in the capital?" Yu Chen suddenly asked.
Luo Yikun held the black screen of his phone in his hand and looked up. He smiled and replied, "No, I"ve been to the capital a few times with my friends."
"So, you"re considered familiar with the capital?"
"Not familiar, but not unfamiliar either."
"I see. Have you heard of Mei Feng Bar in the capital?"
"Of course. Everyone who knows me knows that I like women. The more beautiful a woman is, the more I like her. The boss of Mei Feng Bar is a beauty and is quite famous in the capital. How can I not have heard of Mei Feng?" Be it his expression or tone, they were all a little frivolous.
Yu Chen frowned slightly.
He was indeed a playboy!
He even said that Xi Fengling was a beauty!
"I see. I"ve never seen the boss of Meifeng up close, but since even you, a native of North City, know that she is beautiful, I think she should indeed be quite good-looking."
"Actually, I"m planning to introduce the eldest daughter of the Min Family to you and Qiu. She"s also a big beauty. She"s the eldest daughter of the Min Family in the capital. She"s a real young lady from an influential family. She"s much better than those indecent women outside."
Indecent women…
Who was she referring to?
Luo Qiu frowned slightly.
Was she referring to the boss of Mei Feng that they had mentioned just now?
Also, when she first interacted with her cousin, she gave her quite a good impression. Why was she giving her such a strange feeling now?
What indecent woman?
After all, she had built her business from scratch without any background. She heard that this female boss was only in her twenties.
She already had made a name for herself in the capital in her twenties, a place where every inch of land was gold. Even many descendants of influential families kept a respectful distance from her.
If it were any other woman, she might not be as strong as this boss of Mei Feng Bar.
Anyway, she couldn"t have done it.
Taking a step back, even if she relied on improper methods to get to where she was today, what did it have to do with them?
It was really not the manners of a wealthy family"s daughter to talk about others behind their backs like this.
Luo Qiu calmed down and asked with a smile, "Cousin, do you want to introduce the eldest daughter of the Min Family to my cousin?"
Before Yu Chen could reply, Luo Yikun spoke first, "Qiu, don"t talk nonsense."
He looked at Yu Chen and smiled lightly. "Why don"t you take a look at our family? What kind of family is the Min Family? We"re not from the same world at all. Why would they fancy me? Besides, I still have a huge flock of admirers to tend to. I don"t want to be trapped so early."
"I wouldn"t dare to reach for the daughter of a top-notch family like the Min Family."
Luo Qiu pouted.
What did he mean by "having a huge flock of admirers to tend to"? Did he really think that she didn"t know anything?
Feng Yuan didn"t invite him that day, but he followed her shamelessly. Why did he think that she could not tell?
"Second Brother, I"ve said it before. If you continue to be so playful, there will be retribution sooner or later. I"d advise you to stop doing that. Although you can"t match up to the status of the eldest daughter of the Min Family, there will always be someone you can match up to."
"I can"t." Luo Yikun spun his phone and leaned back lazily.
"You have to even if you can"t."
Luo Qiu glared at him and then smiled awkwardly at Yu Chen, who was sizing them up. "Cousin, you saw it too. My cousin is like this. He"s a jerk."
"If Cousin really has the intention of introducing the eldest daughter of the Min Family to him, let"s forget it. With him like this, he shouldn"t harm a good daughter from a respectable family."
"Jerk? Qiu, is it appropriate for you to say that about your brother?"
As Luo Yikun spoke, he turned to Yu Chen, "Cousin of the Yu Family, don"t listen to her. Although I"m indeed very playful, I"m not to the extent of being a jerk. Although I know that I"m not worthy of the eldest daughter of the Min Family and I don"t want to stop playing, I don"t really mind if the eldest daughter of the Min Family is a beauty and someone I can play with."
Yu Chen held the steering wheel tightly and suppressed her anger.
She hadn"t even said anything, but the two of them were already echoing each other!
Furthermore, what did Luo Yikun mean?
He didn"t mind that she was a beauty, but what did he think Min Sisi was?
She still wanted to matchmake Min Sisi and him, but now it seemed…
Would a good girl like Min Sisi like a playboy like Luo Yikun?
His background was already low enough, but he was actually a sc.u.mbag. He did not even think of climbing up the social ladder in the capital!
Useless!
Did he know what it meant to have connections with the daughter of the Min Family?
"What are you two talking about? I"m just introducing Eldest Miss Min to you two. I didn"t say that I"m introducing her to Kun as a potential girlfriend."
"Don"t spout nonsense when you see them later. The Min Family"s status in the capital is much higher than the Yu Family"s. Even the Yu Family can"t afford to provoke them, let alone your North City"s Luo Family."
"Also, the eldest daughter of the Min Family is actually a very obedient girl. She"s outstanding and hardworking. She"s very liked by the elders."
"This should be her first time coming to a place like a bar. Don"t scare her with your words."
Luo Qiu smiled playfully. "Got it, Cousin. We were just joking with you."
"We know very well what kind of family the Luo Family is. We won"t be able to climb up the social ladder with these influential families."
She was not familiar with the situation of the various families in the capital, but on the way to the capital, Luo Yikun explained a lot to her because he was afraid that she would get into trouble when she arrived.
The Min Family was in a mess now. They didn"t want to get involved, even if they were just small characters from an insignificant small family to these people.
Yu Chen frowned.
It was fine if Luo Yikun was a hedonistic son, but Luo Qiu was the head of the Luo Family after all. She was actually so unambitious too!
They had indeed come from small places!
"By the way, Cousin Yu, since you live in the capital, have you heard of Master Nine?" Luo Yikun simply changed the topic.
Master Nine?!
"Of course I"ve heard of him."
"Why? Has Kun heard of him too?"
"Cousin, that"s a strange question. Have you forgotten where Master Nine started his business? We"re from North City."
"Besides, Master Nine"s fiancée is also the eldest daughter of our Yan Family in North City. The Luo Family and the Yan Family are cooperating, and the two families have a very good relations.h.i.+p. Of course, I"ve heard of Master Nine."
Yu Chen"s smile froze. "I"ve forgotten about that."
She thought to herself, How could the daughter of the Yan Family in North City, who had been missing for many years and grew up in the countryside, be worthy of that Master Nine?
These poor relatives actually looked proud when they mentioned that the eldest daughter of the Yan Family was Master Nine"s fiancée.
Did they really think that a country girl could marry into the Yin Family!
"Cousin Yu should have met Master Nine, right?"
Yu Chen"s expression froze. "Of course."
Luo Yikun saw the subtle expression on her face. This time, Luo Yikun saw Yu Chen in an even clearer light.
A very vain person!
Luo Qiu could not befriend her.
As they spoke, they arrived at Mei Feng Bar.
The bar usually had more people at night, but thanks to the reputation of Mei Feng Bar, there were already many people there.
She parked the car in the underground parking lot and they got out of the car to take the elevator to the first floor.
As soon as they walked out of the elevator, they saw the two people standing there.
Yu Chen stopped in her tracks and her eyes were filled with anger.
It was this woman again!
Yu Chen was stunned when she saw who was standing next to her.
Huo Siyu of the Huo Family in South City!
This woman who had insulted her in Min Rufeng"s office knew Huo Siyu?!
"Second Brother, isn"t that…"
Luo Qiu and Luo Yikun saw Yan Jinyu at the same time.
Luo Qiu stopped before she could finish speaking because they saw an extremely seductive woman wearing a red dress and a white jacket walking towards the two of them.
Her heavy makeup did not make her look vulgar and her every action was very charming.
"Is he here yet?" She held a lit cigarette in her hand.
Then, they saw Yan Jinyu and Huo Siyu"s gazes land on the cigarette Xi Fengling was holding at the same time.
"Meimei," Yan Jinyu said with a faint smile.
Xi Fengling smiled awkwardly. "Aiya, I"m just holding this for someone else."
She quickly called out to a waiter, "Come here!"
"Boss, what can I do for you?"
"Take this cigarette. It"s Little w.a.n.g"s. Send it to him." Little w.a.n.g was a manager at Mei Feng Bar.
The waiter was a little stunned. He was about to say that Little w.a.n.g didn"t smoke when he received Xi Fengling"s warning gaze. He quickly said, "Alright, Lady Boss."
"Look, I told you so. It"s not mine."
Yan Jinyu and Huo Siyu were speechless.
Did she think they were stupid?
"Rainy, I"m not criticizing you, but Young Master Qin is a grown man. If he wants to come over, won"t he come upstairs himself? He even needs you to pick him up. Is he a child?"
"Also, why did you bring Beauty Yu along?"
"Beauty Yu is also too much. You"re always spoiling her. How difficult is it to come upstairs? It"s my territory too. How can I let anything happen to Rainy?"
"Aiya, Sister Fengling, other people even ask their best friends to go to the washroom with them. Why can"t I ask Beauty Yu to pick someone up with me?"
"Then why didn"t you call me along?"
"…I saw that you were busy." Huo Siyu replied.
Xi Fengling snorted coldly and looked at Yan Jinyu, "Beauty Yu, I think you"re a little too biased."
How lazy was she usually? She had already sat down in the private room, but she was actually still willing to get up and follow Rainy downstairs.
That was unbelievable.
It made her a little sore.
"You only love Rainy and not me."
"Cut it out," Yan Jinyu said helplessly.
"Let"s all go downstairs to take a good look together."
Xi Fengling"s eyes lit up.
She knew it. Beauty Yu was such a lazy person. How could she follow Rainy downstairs for no reason? So she was here to help Rainy check out Qin Hao.
Although she had seen Qin Hao many times, she had never seen how Qin Hao interacted with Rainy. She had to observe him carefully.
"Beauty Yu is so thoughtful!"
Huo Siyu looked at them from the side, feeling warm and helpless.
"You two are exaggerating. What"s there to judge about that simple and honest Qin Hao?"
The two of them looked at her at the same time, and Huo Siyu quickly shut up.
Alright, let"s not talk about it anymore. If she continued, she would be surrounded.
Then, Xi Fengling glanced at the door and saw someone walking in.. She quickly said, "He"s here."
