78: Comfortable, this person is useful

Unexpectedly, Kang Dejun turned around and went upstairs again.

Everyone was puzzled as to why he suddenly changed his attitude towards Ye Lin, but it wasn't his original intention; it was the look in the bedridden Old Master's eyes.

Although the Old Master didn’t speak, he kept giving him glances, and Kang Dejun, who had followed his old father his entire life, instantly understood.

Though he didn’t quite understand, he still did as he was told.

Upon reaching the second floor, Kang Dejun walked directly to the Old Master, “Dad, do you think thatKid named Ye is useful?”

The corner of the Old Master’s mouth was still twitching, and his cloudy eyes looked at his son as he said with difficulty, “He… is… not… simple.”

Kang Dejun wiped the drool from his father’s mouth; those few words had cost the old man a great deal of effort.

“Dad, I’ll listen to you. I’ve already had Shaojie get in touch with him first to build a good connection. You should rest early. I promise you, even if he doesn’t cure you tomorrow, I won’t deal with him.”

With that, Kang Dejun patted the Old Master’s hand, intending to get up and leave, but the Old Master grabbed him, struggling to say, “Comf… comfortable, much.”

“Dad, do you mean you feel much more comfortable now?” Kang Dejun looked at his father’s hand. Before, the Old Master’s hand had no strength at all, but now he could actually grab him.

The Old Master nodded repeatedly.

Kang Dejun’s eyes welled up slightly, “Alright, Dad, don’t worry, I’ll definitely bring him over tomorrow and have him continue your treatment.”

Walking downstairs, Kang Dejun recalled the previous events: Ye Lin had pressed the back of the Old Master’s head for a while, and then his father had given him a look. And just now, his father had even spoken several sentences. Could the effect be that good?

...Young Master Kang was now filled with frustration, as Ye Lin had his arm around his shoulder, walking into the club.

Many people came over to greet them along the way.

“Young Master Kang, you’re here.”

“Young Master Kang.”

“Young Master Kang, you haven’t been here in so long, I’ve missed you.” This was a provocatively dressed beauty who, after speaking, winked at Ye Lin.

As everyone greeted him, they secretly glanced at Ye Lin next to him, wondering who this important figure was, daring to put his arm around Young Master Kang as if he were a subordinate.

Ye Lin said “Hi” to the beauty, causing her to giggle continuously.

“Young Master Kang, you have quite a few old flames, don’t you?” Ye Lin teased.

Young Master Kang looked like he wanted to die, leaning into Ye Lin’s ear and muttering bitterly, “I don’t even know her. Don’t try to link me with her. If you’re interested, I can arrange it for you later.”

Ye Lin froze for a moment, then jumped away as if he had seen a ghost, “Young Master Kang, you’re not into men, are you?”

“Get lost.”

Young Master Kang ignored Ye Lin and walked directly into a large private room at the back.

As soon as they entered, the noisy sounds from outside were cut off, as if they had entered another world.

There were already seven or eight people in the private room. As soon as Young Master Kang entered, everyone immediately came to greet him.

“Young Master Kang, you’re finally here!”

“Young Master Kang!”

“Young Master Kang!”

Young Master Kang greeted everyone skillfully, a proud smile on his face.

At this moment, someone noticed Ye Lin standing at the door and his expression darkened, “Do you, a security guard, not understand the rules? Who told you to come in, and you’re not even wearing a uniform?”

Ye Lin looked at Young Master Kang and called out, “Young Master Kang.”

Unexpectedly, Young Master Kang pretended not to hear him and walked straight inside, surrounded by a group of people.

Seeing that Young Master Kang completely ignored Ye Lin, that person pointed a finger and said very impolitely, “Come, come, hurry up and get out. Don’t bother us.”

Ye Lin shook his head. Young Master Kang was trying to get revenge.

He grabbed that person’s finger and gently twisted it.

“Ah!”

“Ah! Let go, let go!”

The person cried out in pain, involuntarily squatting down to relieve the pain from his finger.

These screams finally caught everyone’s attention.

“A Bo, what’s wrong?”

“Who are you? Let A Bo go immediately.”

Everyone started to scold him.

A young man, casually dressed but exuding an air of nobility, walked out from the crowd. He was probably the host of this gathering, and his expression was as unpleasant as could be.

“How dare you lay hands on someone here? Do you know what kind of place this is? This is Jinhai Club, the top club in the provincial city. Everyone who comes here is either rich or noble. Crushing a security guard like you is like crushing an ant.”

“Also, since when did Jinhai Club hire security guards who look like this, like a hooligan? I’ll have a good talk with the manager later.”

Ye Lin saw that everyone’s gazes were on him, so he casually released A Bo’s hand.

He looked at Young Master Kang and said unhappily, “Young Master Kang, want to try again?”

Upon hearing this, Young Master Kang subconsciously hid his right hand behind his back.

Everyone looked at him strangely. Young Master Kang coughed, covering up his embarrassment, “Ah, this is Ye Lin. He came with me.”

Those present who could come out to play might not be academic geniuses, but they were definitely skilled at reading people.

Seeing Young Master Kang’s demeanor, they understood that Young Master Kang wasn’t particularly fond of him, and there might be other reasons why he had to bring him along.

The young host perfunctorily greeted Ye Lin, then led everyone to gather around Young Master Kang.

A Bo glared fiercely at Ye Lin and also joined the group.

Under Young Master Kang’s intentional cold shoulder, everyone tacitly ignored Ye Lin. Everyone ate and drank as they pleased. Before Young Master Kang made a move, no one would proactively speak to Ye Lin.

To be honest, Ye Lin was initially somewhat interested in the lives of these government scions, so he had followed along to see.

After observing, he felt it wasn’t much different from Wang Chao and his friends. Coupled with Young Master Kang’s obvious dislike of him, he also didn’t feel like staying.

He had originally intended to say goodbye before leaving, but seeing Young Master Kang happily drinking and playing over there, Ye Lin shook his head and walked straight out.

Young Master Kang had actually been secretly observing Ye Lin the whole time. As soon as Ye Lin left, Young Master Kang immediately stood up.

With a glance, A Bo immediately understood. He stealthily walked over, pushed open the door a crack, and looked out.

Then, he turned back with a joyful expression, “Young Master Kang, he’s gone.”

Young Master Kang let out a huge sigh of relief. That plague god was finally gone.

“Young Master Kang, who was that?” the host asked curiously.

“My dad made me bring him. It’s probably just for appearances. Don’t mind him; let’s continue.”

Young Master Kang suddenly stood up and shouted, “Music on! Keep the music playing and the dancing going!”

...Ye Lin walked out of the private room, and along the way, he couldn’t help but fall back into his professional habit, looking around everywhere.

Jinhai Club truly lived up to its name as a high-end club. The people coming and going were all either rich or noble. There were no drunk troublemakers like in ordinary bars, which made Ye Lin sigh, “Damn, expensive really is better.”
