467 The Four Young Masters of Dragon City (1/2)
All well's that ends well.
After helping Madam Diana to a full recovery, Chen Xiaobei graciously invited Elder Luo to his house for dinner with his family. The old man insisted on buying a few gifts before heading over.
When they finally arrived at the Wolong mansion, he was once again surprised and impressed by how much the young man had achieved especially given his meager age. Naturally, his first meeting with Chen Xiaobei's parents were cordial and jovial.
On the other hand, Luo Puti was not all happy that Chen Xiaobei was taking full advantage of the situation, but was reluctant to upset the elders too. Therefore, she forced herself to play along and maintain her cover as his girlfriend.
Thus did the night end on a peaceful and joyous note.
Next morning.
Old Wang had streamed Mobile Legends for the entire night to rake in more fans. Now, he had fifty thousand fans – half of whom were his disciples, although he still had a long way to go to catch up with Chen Xiaobei's fan base.
Careful not to wake him, Chen Xiaobei left the house after making two calls.
His first call was to Song Qincheng to ask after her and Wenyuan. It appears that the two of them were getting along pretty well. She took over the company officially, while Wenyuan signed some documents to work under her company. Both were quite preoccupied with their work too; they did not ask him to head to the city to keep them 'company'.
Next, Chen Xiaobei received a call from Yap Liangchen, who wanted to discuss the task he had assign him. He drove to the Yap Mansion immediately, which was located around the Xuanwu Lake as well. The Yap Family had only slight influence in Dragon City after all – even the Luo Family was more influential than they were.
When he arrived, the entire family had already line up by the front entrance to welcome him. It appears that the head of the family, Yap Lanshou had resolved to cling onto him since he could not get into the good graces of the Cao Family. He also wanted the rest of the family to have a good look at Chen Xiaobei, to make sure that they would respect and obey the young man in the future.
After some brief introductions, Chen Xiaobei went with Yap Liangchen to the study to discuss business. But before Yap Lianchen could say a thing, Chen Xiaobei asked: ”I heard about someone named Yap Tianlin recently. Does he have anything to do with your family?”
Yap Liangchen stared blankly at him for a moment. ”Our family has nothing to do with him at all,” he said. ”His family is one of the four most powerful and richest family in Dragon City. We were a single clan five hundred years ago, but now our family cannot be compared to his at all!”
Chen Xiaobei nodded. He had expected that answer.
”How much do you know about him?” Chen Xiaobei asked.
”He is known as a genius when it comes to business, and he started since he was twenty-one years old. Five years down the line and his company was listed in the top hundred most successful organizations in China, and commonly acknowledged as the most influential amongst them too.”
”The wealth that they have accumulated is unimaginable, which was why Yap Tianlin is now considered the sole inheritor of his Family. Some economists even predicted that in twenty years, he would become the richest man in this world after he takes over his family business!”
Yap Liangchen talked as if he was quite eager for it to happen too.
The information most certainly shock Chen Xiaobei, but he managed to keep a lid on it. There were a lot of thing in his treasure chest that he would never exchange for the world, and that alone kept him from being disturbed by the fact that Yap Tianlin would become the richest man in the world.
”How about Liu Chunyi? Know anything about him?” Chen Xiaobei asked nonchalantly.
