217: Chapter 217 Blue Moon Bar

At this moment, mentioning Ling Rui was, of course, also an attempt to boost his own status by using Xiao Shuai's name, so he smiled slightly and replied: "She is indeed the only daughter of that President Ling."

Compared to the long-established powerhouse Lingshi Group, Hengtian could only be described as a nouveau riche that had caught a wave of opportunity.

To be able to make that eldest daughter of the Ling Family, known for her foul temper, personally make an overseas trip just to help him buy a car, it seemed that the relationship between them was truly extraordinary.

Xing Jiaxing suddenly felt a bit impatient.

At the banquet, he had seen that Ling Rui as well; she didn't seem any worse than his own daughter, and she was quite a bit younger.

Xing Tianjie was also somewhat surprised by this unexpectedly unearthed background, and he continued to share information that his father hadn't yet managed to receive.

"Brother Zhao, your connections are truly extensive. No wonder you were even able to acquire a Hongqi state gift car. The number of people in the country who own this car can be counted on one hand."

"I pulled a few small strings and bought it from a big-shot collector. I believe if Uncle Xing wanted one, he would certainly be qualified; it's just that the official process takes too long."

Although they had exchanged a few compliments, the father and son of the Xing Family were both well aware that even though the rules on the surface made it seem like many wealthy people could meet the requirements...

...in reality, this car held great symbolic significance; it was basically gifted to state guests, and the number of domestic owners was extremely small. They couldn't help but feel a few more degrees of wariness toward Zhao Xiaoshuai's background.

This meal left Zhao Xiaoshuai feeling a bit tired. Xing Jiaxing was constantly finding ways to probe him from various angles, trying to figure out his true background.

If it weren't for coveting his daughter, he would have really wanted to just refuse to answer and not give him any face.

However, no matter how much one drags out a meal, there is a limit. As this family banquet came to an end, Xing Jiaxing no longer had a reason to continue detaining Zhao Xiaoshuai.

Yet, he still hadn't given up on Zhao Xiaoshuai as a potential source of capital, so he handed this important task over to his son.

"Tianjie, you young people should interact more. You don't need to go to the company today; I'm giving you the day off."

Xing Tianjie understood perfectly and said to Zhao Xiaoshuai with a smile: "It just so happens that ever since the last gathering, I haven't had the time to go drinking with Brother Zhao. Today, I'm 'officially' slacking off. Brother Zhao, you wouldn't refuse to give me this face, would you?"

"How could I? I will definitely give Young Master Jie face." However, he kept the thought 'after all, he's my brother-in-law' to himself.

Watching the two of them leave while chatting and laughing, Xing Jiaxing finally let out a sigh after closing the door.

Regarding this mysterious wealthy man, other than his confidence in his own financial strength and his current single status, Xing Jiaxing hadn't managed to probe anything else out of him this time.

What his background was, which industries he was involved in, and exactly how much cash flow he had—he knew none of it.

"But this is enough. At least I know he is truly very capable, and he has a good impression of my daughter. This is something that can be worked with."

...

...

Originally, Xing Tianjie had intended to take Zhao Xiaoshuai to a private club specifically built by Hengtian to have some fun, but during the banquet, he sensed that his father intended to play matchmaker between this man and his own sister.

Furthermore, since this man seemed very familiar with his sister—perhaps they really were involved—out of respect for his sister, he changed his plans.

"Brother Zhao, a few brothers happen to be drinking at Blue Moon today and have been pestering me to go. Would you like to go join in the fun with me? Lin Yongbo is there, too."

Lin Yongbo had previously had a very unpleasant falling out with Zhao Xiaoshuai and, along with Chen Guozhong, had left iSport forever.

Later, they accidentally met at an offline gathering for game members, where they buried the hatchet over a drink, became familiar with each other again, and he became a regular at iSport once more, often bringing his brothers along to show support and sign up for memberships.

"Sure, I haven't seen Lin Yongbo for a while either."

Zhao Xiaoshuai didn't know what kind of place Blue Moon was. He searched for it on his phone on the way and only then realized it was the largest bar in Chuncheng.

He had never been to a place like a bar before; his impression of it was still limited to a few labels posted on the internet.

Such as "don't touch girls who frequent bars," "corpse picking," and "hunting for beauties."

Although his personality didn't like such noisy places, his mindset and wallet were now vastly different from before, so there was no harm in trying it out.

Furthermore, he possessed the system's Insightful Eye skill; as long as he activated the index, he could know the information of female characters, giving him the capital to "sift for gold in the dung."

He also learned from the introduction online that this Blue Moon bar had three floors in total.

The first floor was the largest and was a nightclub, which fit his impression of bars and nightclubs perfectly: everywhere was filled with deafening music and explicit dancing. The venue had professional DJs, cool lighting effects, and a spacious dance floor. The decor was trendy and modern, and the atmosphere was very lively.

Most of the targets for "hunting for beauties" on this floor were young and energetic girls; they were more open and easier to approach.

The second floor was a quiet bar with a calm and comfortable atmosphere, featuring light music, soft lighting, and simple decorations, making it more suitable for chatting, resting, or relaxing alone.

The women on this floor were more mature, often being cool older sisters or even mature women. Hunting them would be more difficult, requiring you to have high cultivation or appearance. This place was often where young people who didn't want to work hard gathered to try their luck.

The third floor was not open to the public; it consisted of relatively private rooms that only super VIP clients and the friends invited by those clients could access.

Xing Tianjie led Zhao Xiaoshuai directly to the third floor and walked into private room number 301.

Inside, two young men were sitting together drinking gloomily.

"Yongbo, what's wrong lately? Getting you to come out and have some fun is harder than ascending to heaven."

"Don't mention it. I've been feeling troubled lately. I'm pursuing a woman, and I thought there was some progress, but she's been ignoring me again recently."

"Yongbo, you didn't go and become a simp, did you?"

"Get lost. Am I that kind of person? Even if I die, I won't become a simp!"

Just then, hearing the sound of the door opening, the two turned their heads to look, and sure enough, it was Xing Tianjie who had arrived.

"Brothers, I've brought a new friend today. You guys won't mind, right?"

"Young Master Jie's friends are our friends! Nice to meet you, my name is Cao Dewang. This little bar is my family's business."

"Hello, my name is Zhao Xiaoshuai."

[Ding! Stranger Index Lit: Cao Dewang (7.46)]

[Congratulations to the host for luckily obtaining a multiplier silver card (Permanent)]

This Cao Dewang had somewhat of a family background, but his ability was very mediocre compared to Xing Tianjie, similar to Lin Yongbo. His character didn't have any outstanding traits, but it wasn't at a level that was too bad either.

"Where are you making your fortune, President Zhao?"

"Heh, just an unemployed drifter, wandering around the streets all day."

Seeing Zhao Xiaoshuai arrive, Lin Yongbo stopped drinking gloomily and went over to greet him.

"Brother Zhao is being dishonest again. Don't believe him. Not long ago, Brother Zhao spent 7 million just for fun to buy that iSport in the city center."

"I was almost fooled by President Zhao, haha."

Xing Tianjie also chimed in: "If Brother Zhao says he wanders around all day, that might not be a lie. He's probably out on the streets in his newly purchased porsche 918."

"porsche 918? Damn, that's my dream car. President Zhao, you have to let me drive it for a couple of laps later!"
