Chapter 63 – Chapter 63 The Top Club In River City!
Chapter 63 The Top Club in River City!
10pm, at the River City Royal Club.
Chu Shuran had not slept well over the past few days. The moment she closed her eyes, she was reminded of Yao Jingu.
She had mustered all the power she had to investigate Yao Jingu’s case but, whenever she came close to finding something, it seemed like a pair of invisible hands would sweep away all the clues.
She could not even find a trace!
She was somewhat puzzled. Who had the ability to block all of the information like this? It was to the point that she, as a member of the Chu family, the number one family in River City, was rendered helpless.
“Please display your membership card!” The security guards at the door uttered coldly.
As the staff members of the River City Royal Club, they were not beholden to anyone!
Chu Shuran and her father displayed their membership cards and successfully entered the club.
This time, they had made an appointment with an expert at the club to seek out some clues through the other party’s network.
After all, it was impossible for the invisible hands behind the scenes to cover up every single clue.
Once inside, Chu Shuran was surprised to find a large number of experts in the Royal Club today. She could sense several strong auras around.
Those experts seemed to be staring at them from the darkness.
“Dad, is there something going on in the club today?” Chu Shuran asked in a low voice.
Mr. Chu nodded and briefly glanced at a man who was pacing back and forth not far away. “Shuran, do you see that hunchbacked man?”
Chu Shuran nodded and then asked, “Dad, is something the matter? Do you know him?”
Mr. Chu looked around. Seeing that no one was around, he said in a low voice, “I know of him, but he probably doesn’t know me. That man is the one behind the Royal Club!”
Chu Shuran’s body trembled and her beautiful eyes were filled with shock!
She had heard of the various terrifying things about the Royal Club since she was a child, but she had never actually laid eyes on the person behind the Royal Club!
Yet now, that very person was actually standing not too far away from her!
Mr. Chu looked at Chu Shuran with a deep gaze and continued, “Shuran, don’t be fooled by his hunchbacked look. He’s actually a martial arts grandmaster! He’s very strong! This is also one of the reasons why no one dares to mess with the Royal Club. Of course, this is not the main reason…”
Chu Shuran’s heart was in turmoil as she subconsciously asked, “What’s the main reason then…”
“Ye Lingtian,” Mr. Chu only uttered a single name.
Chu Shuran finally understood when she heard that name.
There were too many terrifying things a.s.sociated with that name! It was even scarier than this club!
After a long while, Chu Shuran finally regained her senses. She thought of something and said softly, “Dad, I think that man is waiting for someone. Could he be waiting for Ye Lingtian?” Mr. Chu shook his head and swiped his card to open a special door. He walked in and took a seat before saying, “It doesn’t matter who he is waiting for. It’s very difficult for us to come into contact with a person of that level. The most important thing for us now is to pay attention to Yao Jingu’s case…”
Chu Shuran glanced at the entrance to the Royal Club with antic.i.p.ation. However, she had no choice but to enter the room after hearing her father’s words.
After the two of them entered, a casually-dressed young man appeared at the entrance.
Ye Chen arrived at the Royal Club using the directions Ye Lingtian had given him.
This club did have some style; the fountain, the lights, and the green bamboo gave it somewhat of an artistic atmosphere.
Most importantly, Ye Chen could clearly feel that there were several experts around who were staring at him. If he caused any trouble, those people would be the first to attack.
Ye Chen did not take it seriously though, and walked directly over to the main door. However, he was quickly stopped by four security guards.
“Please display your membership card!”
Ye Chen did not have a membership card. Just as he was about to take out his phone to call Ye Lingtian, a figure quickly walked out from inside.
When the security guards saw the figure, their eyes shrank and they quickly bowed respectfully. “Chief!”
However, the man did not even look at them.
Instead, he walked over to Ye chen and said with a smile on his face, “Mr. Ye… Is that you?”
Ye Chen nodded.
The man was a little surprised to hear Ye Chen’s words of affirmation.
The man had been asked to wait for a man surnamed Ye and to serve him attentively. He had thought that it would be a middle-aged man who showed up instead of someone so young!
The person in front of him was probably only around 20 years old.
He really could not figure out why he would be asked to personally attend to such an trivial-looking person. He even had to wait for the other party at the door!
However, since ‘that person’ had already given him instructions, he naturally could not say anything more. He just had to serve Ye Chen attentively.
Perhaps this kid was the illegitimate son of ‘that person’?
He looked at the four security guards and pretended to scold them, “Do you guys not have eyes? This is Mr. Ye! In the future, Mr. Ye doesn’t need a membership card to enter and exit! Do you hear me?”
The four people’s expressions changed greatly, and they hurriedly nodded, “Yes, yes, yes…”
“Hurry up and apologize to Mr. Ye!” The man snorted.
“Mr. Ye, we’re truly sorry…” The four of them said in unison.
Ye Chen naturally would not bother with these underlings. He nodded and walked inside.
“Lead the way. By the way, is Ye Lingtian here yet?” The corner of the man’s mouth twitched when he heard Ye Chen call ‘that person’ by his name!
This was also because he also heard a trace of indifference from the other party’s tone! It was as if he was calling for a servant!
“Mr. Ye, the lord will be here soon. Please wait inside…” The man said with a bow.
Ye Chen did not say anything further and walked straight into the private room arranged by the man.
The environment inside was pretty decent. It was at least a hundred square meters in size, and there were even expensive pieces of calligraphy and paintings hanging on the walls.
The man then excused. Had it not been for Ye Lingtian’s instruction, he would not have lowered himself to serve this kid! With his status, why would he be bothered to properly serve a kid who had not even grown hair down there?
What a joke!
Ye Chen sipped on a cup of tea. Seeing that Ye Lingtian had not appeared, he felt a little unhappy. He wanted to call for the man earlier, but the latter had already disappeared. Helplessly, Ye Chen decided to go to the washroom.
If Ye Lingtian still did not show up soon, he did not plan to wait any longer. He, Ye Chen, would not wait around for anyone!
