Rebirth: City Sovereign

Ordinary people did not know that the military region had seen the Sea Scale Clan of Sea Ancestor and their subordinates, but just the incantations and ocean techniques that caused people to feel fear in their Sea Scale Clan were already very troublesome to deal with. Even Ye Kai had to sacrifice his own life in order to obtain victory.    

But now, this Ye Ning had actually learned all the secrets of the three great families, how powerful would he be?    

Pang Baozong and the other officers could not even imagine such a thing.    

Ye Kai thanked Pang Baozong and prepared to leave the Hidden Dragon Base. Seeing that Ye Kai was about to leave, Pang Baozong asked him worriedly.    

"Instructor Ye, are you going to solve all of this?"    

Ye Kai stopped and replied.    

"It's not time yet. Wait until Annual Meeting of Ye Family, I will take care of everything. But right now, I have other things to do."    

"What?"    

Pang Baozong asked subconsciously.    

"It's nothing, just some old events."    

Pang Baozong was slightly taken aback, but his figure had already disappeared from the Hidden Dragon Base.    

China Capital was still the same as before: The Hyatt Restaurant.    

As for the white clothed youth sitting in the room, the waiter was already used to it and would no longer be surprised. However, the waiter was still curious about the identity of this youth with the black gold card.    

Ye Qingying used her cherry lips to lightly bite off a piece of Moose Cake. In front of Ye Kai, she did not care about her image as a beauty, and asked while holding onto something.    

"Brother, you said last time that you want to go back and settle your personal grudge. Is it over in a few days?"    

Ye Kai looked at Ye Qingying and laughed.    

"Jianghai is only the beginning."    

"It's going to be the main show starting from the capital."    

Ye Qingying nodded as if she understood something. Although she did not know what mysterious matter her big brother was doing, to Ye Qingying, no matter what, being able to return to the capital and sit together with her made her extremely happy.    

Ye Qingying's eyes darted around twice as he prepared the wording of the letter. Then he looked at Ye Kai with an enigmatic smile, and said.    

"Brother."    

"Yes."    

"Do you still know Qin Xueru?"    

Being suddenly asked by Ye Qingying, Ye Kai could not help but raise her eyebrows.    

An image of a pretty girl holding a paintbrush appeared in his mind.    

"I remember."    

"You know, she's engaged!"    

"Is that so?"    

Ye Kai was not the least bit surprised, he picked up the high grade porcelain cup that was filled with black tea and drank it while speaking.    

Although Qin Xueru was only around twenty years of age, but for some big families, they could still form an alliance with other families and become engaged, which was not anything strange. Rather, with the way their Qin Family had been declining recently, Ye Kai felt that it was a bit abnormal not to make an alliance.    

Ye Qingying saw that Ye Kai did not seem to mind at all, and frowned his pretty eyebrows immediately, as he said in a pouting manner.    

"Really, brother, no matter what, we were alumni in the past, don't you care about the engagement partner? Furthermore, not only Qin Xueru, but even Qin Yurou had the news of an engagement. "    

"They're not engaged to be engaged to you, what do I care?" Ye Kai had a look of being able to take it for granted.    

Back then, Ye Kai and Qin Xueru had an intimate relationship, but Qin Family was so anxious to send out their two Huang Hua daughters.    

Or else, his Qin Family had really fallen to the point where he needed to form an alliance to save himself.    

Or, Qin Family had found a backer that they believed to be strong enough, so they wanted to strengthen their relationship before anyone else.    

However, no matter what kind, or whether it was the two of them, Ye Kai did not put them to heart.    

To him, Qin Yurou was completely a girl who liked to stir up trouble and cause trouble. And for the more mature Qin Xueru, she chose to enter a compromise family herself and chose a better home for herself.    

If one were to say what kind of relationship he had with Qin Family, at the very most, he would have won a bit of face for Qin Tianyi at Old Master Qin's banquet.    

Forget about the current Ye Kai, even the Ye Kai of a year ago thought that these were all trivial matters.    

Ye Qingying snorted, rolled her eyes in annoyance, and said while minding her own business.    

"Qin Xueru's marriage partner is called Xiao Yan. His surname is Xiao, so that means you understand, right?"    

"Oh, the capital's Xiao Family."    

Ye Kai nodded, he finally understood why the Qin Family could not wait to send Qin Xueru out so generously.    

Even though he did not intentionally go to know the great clans in the capital, his Xiao Family was so well-known that no one would not know it.    

Xiao Family was the biggest painter in the capital, and they had connections with many of the other big clans there.    

Any painting in the Xiao Family, as long as he wrote his name or had the word "Xiao" written on it, would instantly be able to fetch a high price of a million. Although there were people blindly chasing after the effects of a famous person, paintings of the Xiao Family were indeed worthy of such a price.    

"The people from Xiao Family were born with golden pens."    

This was what the people of the capital usually said about the people of Xiao Family, because the talent of the people of Xiao Family in drawing could be said to be extremely high, especially the Xiao Yan who was known by the new generation of Xiao Family. Not to mention the people of the capital, even in terms of China, many people knew of his great name.    

Reportedly, when Xiao Yan was holding the brush at the time, he was playing around in the Xiao Family Courtyard, scribbling on a piece of paper with a brush, and had actually drawn the entirety of the Xiao Family Hall into Xuan paper. From then on, Xiao Family determined that Xiao Yan was the most important talent to the next generation of Xiao Family, and put in all his effort to nurture them.    

Compared to the Xiao Family, Qin Family which similarly used painting as the foundation of the clan, was naturally much inferior. It seemed like, this Old Master Qin or Qin Tianyi must have coincidentally gotten to know the capital's Xiao Family, which was why they thought of this idea.    

Although there was a huge gap between Qin Family and others, they should not have agreed to this marriage. However, considering Qin Xueru's looks, this was still understandable.    

Originally, Qin Family had had the intention to rope Ye Kai in, and Qin Xueru also had a faint favorable impression of Ye Kai. However, after the college entrance examination, Ye Kai disappeared from the face of the earth as if he had vanished into thin air.    

It just so happened that at this time, the business that Qin Family had been preparing for a few years was a huge loss, to the point of not returning at all. Even maintaining the family's expenses, half of it was out of helplessness, and the other half because of wanting to reach higher ups, Qin Family did everything possible to find a backer who thought that Xiao Family was more reliable, so he married the Qin Family sisters and went to the capital.    

"I have a general idea of the situation, but why are you bringing this up, could it be that your company has some sort of relationship with Xiao Family?"    

Ye Qingying stuck out her tongue playfully.    

"Brother, I can't hide anything from you."    

"As you know, our corporation has recently been engaged in real estate and landscape development and has recently set their sights on a mountain in Beijing."    

"Swallow Peak?"    

Hearing Ye Kai's words, Ye Qingying revealed a surprised expression.    

"Brother, you know that place?"    

Ye Kai nodded.    

"I've seen it before. Its geographical location is quite good. From the peak, you can see the scenery around the capital. With spiritual energy swirling around, the terrain is suitable for setting up all kinds of cultivation and defensive arrays."    

"Hehe, then do you know which family in the capital this Swallow Peak came from?"    

"Xiao Family." Ye Kai had nothing to do.    

"Not bad, we have reached an agreement with Xiao Family and bought this mountain peak at a satisfactory price for both sides. To celebrate, tomorrow our company and Xiao Family will have a joint banquet."    

"While chatting, Xiao Family mentioned that it would intentionally bring Xiao Yan's fiancee here. I was curious, so I asked for her name. Only then did they go and check what the Qin Family are all about. "    

"So, I wanted to say that you happen to know Qin Xueru as well. "Tomorrow at this banquet, why don't we …"    

"Not going." Ye Kai spat out two words without hesitation before Ye Qingying finished speaking.    

It was not that he loathed meeting people from the Qin Family, but rather that he felt that there was no need for it. Furthermore, his original parents had yet to take revenge for their grievances.    

"But I already told them that my brother would come tomorrow too, so I told Qin Xueru to meet her old classmate …"    

Ye Qingying pouted and said with an aggrieved look on her face.    

"Meet your old classmate? You want me to keep things under control, right?" Ye Kai said snappily.    

For this kind of banquet, according to the rules, Xiao Family would definitely invite people to draw for it to be used as a show.    

"..." "Isn't there nobody else who can draw better than you?"    

With her thoughts seen through, Ye Qingying blushed red as she muttered to herself.
