Four Young Masters of the Capital

The City A business exchange seminar.

Today was the seminar held once every three months. On the surface, it was an opportunity for businesses to exchange views and suggestions on product development trends, market prospects, future plans, and other matters.

In reality, it was more like a massive networking platform.

Everyone here networked with a purpose: to expand their connections and seek potential business partners.

Every family in City A with any reputation or influence sent members of its younger generation to attend.

Most hoped to use this opportunity to showcase their talents and abilities. Not only could they make an impression, but they could also meet other outstanding young talents.

It would give them an advantage in competing for positions within their companies while bringing their families more business opportunities and room for growth.

Getting into this seminar, however, was no easy feat.

With its reputation and influence, countless people fought tooth and nail for an admission ticket.

Even simply showing their faces at the seminar could bring unexpected rewards to individuals or companies.

Everyone here was a potential partner or competitor. Getting a few important figures to recognize their faces could be a tremendous help in securing future cooperation.

In his previous life, this was where Li Hanwen had shone, which was why so many people had been willing to work with him afterward.

[If I don't ruin his little party today, I'll call Li Hanwen a rat turd!]

Beside Lin Xingye, Lin Xingmo's lips twitched. His brother's way of speaking in private was so... crude.

The two had dressed to the nines. The moment they entered, Li Hanwen spotted them and glared at Lin Xingye through gritted teeth, though he couldn't very well make a scene in public.

Lin Xingye had no such reservations. He pulled a face right at him.

Sure enough, everyone nearby turned to look. Li Hanwen hurriedly turned away and pretended nothing had happened. Who knew how thickly he'd caked on the foundation today to hide the bruises on his face? He absolutely couldn't get into another clash with this lunatic!

"Look, they're finally here!"

Everyone turned at the shout. A group of people had appeared at the entrance.

They were members of the Four Great Families.

The first man through the door was tall, at least six foot one, with excellent proportions: broad shoulders, a narrow waist, and long legs.

His head was slightly lowered, his long, thick lashes casting a shadow over his high nose bridge and lending greater depth to his profile.

His thin lips curved faintly, making him look both sexy and alluring.

He stood tall and straight, his fitted suit outlining his perfect musculature. Every movement carried strength and elegance, making him impossible to overlook.

He radiated a restrained, untouchable air, mysterious and utterly captivating. Lin Xingye couldn't take his eyes off him.

Bo Xi, the young heir of the Bo Family, was the successor personally appointed by the old patriarch. The family's illegitimate children didn't even dare defy him. He was one of the people at the very top of City A's hierarchy.

As a long-established family, the Bo Family had shown signs of decline in earlier years. After Bo Xi took over, however, it rapidly expanded its business empire, swallowing up numerous emerging companies. Even now, it was still pushing into more new industries.

It now stood on equal footing with the Qi, Cheng, and An Families, which had previously formed a three-way balance of power, and perhaps even surpassed them.

But hadn't he heard that Bo Xi had gone abroad? Why had he suddenly appeared here?

Behind him were the Qi siblings, Qi Sijing and Qi Sinian.

Qi Sijing's personality was nothing like that of the rest of his family. He was lively and unpredictable, but precisely because of that, he often made decisions that shocked everyone.

Especially when faced with situations where a single misstep could cost him everything, he always managed to pull off a spectacular victory, proving that appearances could be deceiving.

People often overlooked his exceptional looks because of his abilities. He was handsome in a bright, sunny way, with adorable puppy-dog eyes that made him easy to like. His naturally upturned lips always seemed to carry a smile, making people want to approach him.

If not for his crisp suit, he would have looked like an ordinary male college student, especially adorable when he smiled.

That image made him seem particularly approachable in a crowd, but it also made people prone to underestimating his abilities and talent.

Qi Sinian was the quintessential sweet girl. She loved pretty dresses and had grown up cherished by her entire family, leaving her rather spoiled.

As she walked, Qi Sinian greeted Cheng Yu behind her. Of course-everyone knew the Qi Family's youngest daughter liked Cheng Yu, the young master of the Cheng Family.

What a pity. Cheng Yu certainly had a handsome face, with distinct features and strong, sharp contours.

One look from those tender, alluring eyes could make someone want to fall hopelessly into them, but the arrogance and defiance within them would snap that person right back to their senses.

His hair fell casually over his forehead, adding a natural, carefree touch. He was tall and lean, perfectly proportioned, with clearly defined muscles that conveyed an indescribable sense of strength.

His well-tailored black suit fitted him perfectly, accentuating his height and strong build. His collar was slightly open, revealing the flashy dark blue shirt underneath.

He looked exactly like the sort of bad boy young girls adored, but he really was bad-a notorious playboy.

It was true that he treated women gently and courteously, but in business, he was a ruthless predator behind a smiling face. Countless people secretly feared him.

He might be a young master now, but once, he had been an illegitimate son no one would acknowledge in polite company. And now? However reluctant the old patriarch of the Cheng Family might be, he could only hand the company over to him.

The last to enter were An Ning and An Shi. The An Family was also unusual in that it had placed its daughter in the CEO's seat.

Their only son, An Shi, had no interest in running a company and was wholly devoted to medicine. He was usually cold and aloof, barely bothering to respond to anyone.

And yet he had been blessed with a coolly handsome face. His eyes and brows carried a hint of indifference and distance, while beneath his high nose bridge, his thin lips were pressed lightly together, giving off a faint chill.

His appearance inevitably brought to mind those ancient immortals, icy and proud, standing apart from the world.

No matter how irritatingly aloof he was, one look at his face would leave anyone unwittingly drawn to him.

It was impossible to stay angry at that face.

An Ning actually looked very much like An Shi. She was a striking, cool beauty with a straightforward personality, intelligent, courageous, and resourceful-an outstanding businesswoman.

Anyone who saw them had to admit that the An Family had excellent genes.

Still, rumor had it that the An Family had only chosen An Ning as its successor because An Shi didn't want the position, and that they were even considering having a third child.

Apparently, An Ning deeply resented this in private, and the siblings seemed to have a very poor relationship.

Previously, City A had happened to host a livestreamed speaking event featuring outstanding young people from various industries and had invited these four men onto the same stage. With their exceptional looks and their success at such a young age, they could be summed up as handsome, talented, and rich.

Netizens had jokingly dubbed them the "Four Young Masters of the Capital." They had even gained quite a few fans because of it, who checked in on their fan community every day.

But that wasn't important.

[Aren't they all little fish in Qin Ke's Fish Pond?]

The four men: ⊙_⊙?

Who was Qin Ke? Who were little fish?

Who was talking?!
