664: 653 664: 653 Wang Kai really wanted to explode but, remembering that this was ultimately Song Yun’s territory, instantly suppressed his fury.
He then gave Song Yun a cold glance and turned to leave.
“Ah, the impetuosity of youth,” laughed Da Fei, trying to smooth things over.
“Boss Song, don’t take it to heart.
This kid’s just too proud.
Ever since he was young, Old Wang never let him suffer any setbacks.
Among his peers, he’s been one of the very best, so he probably feels a bit imbalanced when he meets a young talent like you, equally extraordinary.
That’s probably it.
Otherwise, I know Old Wang; he’s pretty easygoing.”
Song Yun casually shrugged and remarked, “No big deal.
We’re all young.
Who doesn’t act on impulse now and then, right?”
“Indeed, acting on impulse,” Brother White Tiger chuckled.
“Song Yun, come on, let’s drink.”
“Let’s!”
Glasses clinked among the men, while Lin Yu felt somewhat neglected.
But she had just listened to the exchange between Wang Kai and Song Yun and looked a bit stunned.
Illegal dealings?
Lin Yu was no fool; she clearly understood what that implied.
Could it be that Song Yun was involved with an organization?!
Initially, Lin Yu had genuinely thought Song Yun was just a rich second-generation heir—someone with a bit of money, power, and brains.
She had never anticipated that not only was Song Yun not just a privileged heir, but he was actually a boss of an organization!
What is a boss of an organization?
Lin Yu wasn’t too clear about that, nor did she have any interest in finding out.
After all, she had never encountered such people in her life.
Her own family just had a bit of spare cash, so Lin Yu didn’t understand what a real organization was like; however, Song Yun had just given her a lesson.
So-called organizations engaged in dealings shrouded in secrecy, and words that she only encountered in television and movies now suddenly buzzed around her ears!
“Mr.
Song…” Seeing Song Yun laughing and chatting with the others while she was just a backdrop, Lin Yu tugged at Song Yun’s sleeve under the table and whispered hesitantly.
“What is it?” Song Yun turned his head, his tone as gentle as before.
“I have something else to take care of, I need to leave for a bit,” Lin Yu said after a moment’s hesitation.
Song Yun paused, then quickly grasped Lin Yu’s intention and couldn’t help laughing, “Were you frightened?”
Initially constrained, Lin Yu couldn’t help but feel a little defiant upon seeing Song Yun’s smile, protesting lightly, “Who’s frightened?
I’m just not feeling well.”
“Haha, there’s no shame in being frightened!” teased Song Yun, the playful look in his eyes growing stronger.
“Come on, let me introduce you to my friends.”
With that, Song Yun stood up.
The others, who had been engaged in their own conversations, paused as Song Yun rose to his feet.
“Brothers, I haven’t had the chance to introduce my female companion tonight.
Now, let me introduce her,” Song Yun announced with a playful expression.
“This is the lead actress from the Sunan Province TV Station, Lin Yu.”
“Song Yun, you’ve got good taste,” Xuanwu laughed heartily.
“Of course,” Song Yun replied, not bothering to clarify.
After introducing Lin Yu, he then introduced the others, “This gentleman here is Brother Xuanwu.
If you run into trouble in Yunnan that you can’t handle, just find Brother Xuanwu.
No one in that area will refuse his help.”
Lin Yu stood up with a bit of restraint and nodded towards Xuanwu with a smile.
“This is Brother White Tiger and Sister Zhu Yeqing.
In Pudong, or even in the south, if you can’t handle something, just seek out Brother White Tiger,” Song Yun continued.
“Lin Yu, let me introduce another one to you.
This is Brother Fei.
If there’s someone you don’t like and you want them to disappear, finding Brother Fei would definitely not be a mistake,” Song Yun said with a smile.
“Brother Fei.” Lin Yu nodded to Da Fei, her mind reeling in shock.
Just as she suspected, these men were not upstanding people!
Lin Yu glanced at Song Yun, who usually joked around, surprised to find that he was part of this circle.
Remembering how he had cheerfully interacted with her, a chill ran down her spine; Song Yun was much too scheming.
The meal and drinks ended quickly, and on the dinner table, Song Yun managed to become acquainted with the other regional influencers.
This type of acquaintance was tenuous at best.
Song Yun knew that if it came down to a conflict of interest, not only he but everyone present would not hesitate to fight or to seize what they desired.
What did it matter if they had met or knew each other?
In this circle, everyone standing in your way was an enemy.
As people started to disperse, Brother White Tiger showed no haste to leave.
“Song Yun, let’s find a place to talk properly,” suggested Brother White Tiger.
Song Yun nodded; Sunan was not far from Pudong, and he had a considerable wariness of this southern power player.
Seeing that Brother White Tiger seemed to have matters to discuss with him, Song Yun was in no rush to head home.
“You pick the place; this is your turf,” stated Brother White Tiger.
“Then let’s go to my club,” suggested Song Yun.
“To Yellow Springs.”
It was late at night.
Yellow Springs was already packed.
Song Yun brought Lin Yu, and Brother White Tiger brought Zhu Yeqing.
Four people entered Yellow Springs together.
Wang Hu, who had been waiting there, took Song Yun straight to the second floor.
They found a quiet private room, and once the door was closed, the noise outside was nearly inaudible.
“Qing’er, take Lin Yu out for some fun,” Brother White Tiger said to Zhu Yeqing beside him.
Zhu Yeqing nodded, stood up, and said to Lin Yu, “Let’s go.”
Lin Yu didn’t want to leave, but it was clear that Song Yun and Brother White Tiger were about to discuss topics not meant for children, so she had no choice but to reluctantly follow Zhu Yeqing out of the room.
“Song Yun, that woman of yours is pretty, but she’s not as top-notch as the group in your villa,” Brother White Tiger said with a smile.
Song Yun smiled in response, “Even the top-notch ones can’t compare to your Zhu Yeqing, Brother White Tiger.”
“Haha, Qing’er is a real beauty, and it took me a lot of effort to win her over!” Brother White Tiger laughed.
But then his expression sobered, and he said to Song Yun, “I wanted to talk to you today mainly about a potential collaboration.”
“Oh?
What kind of collaboration?” Song Yun asked, intrigued.
“My collaboration proposal is quite simple.
The higher-ups in Pudong—those fellows we work under—are aware I’m not dead.
Although they can’t lay a finger on me, they’ve blocked my channels for importing goods from outside.”
“So, I plan to establish a second import route in Sunan.
Of course, I know you steer clear of overly contentious business, so this line will be kosher!
If you let me import through your territory, I can concede a part of the Pudong market to you.
What do you think?”
