The Fog City, a hilly city, gets its name because of the year-round thick fog.
Although it is a hilly city, it has a population of 30 million. It is a famous historical and cultural city with a long history of more than 3,000 years and a glorious revolutionary tradition.
As the mayor of this big city, Qiu Xiongyi's Qiu family has been operating here for five generations and has a strong economy and power.
Although he did not always hold the power of mayor, even when other people became mayors, they almost always obeyed the orders of the Qiu family.
It is said that there must be a mysterious force behind it that allows it to take root here, but there is no way to verify it.
However, today Qiu Xiongyi held a special family dinner, and almost all the members of the Qiu family came to the family manor.
Although it was a family dinner, many celebrities were also invited.
After stopping the motorcycle, Yu Sheng and the village chief Lin Youfu waited on the platform for the car to pick them up and take them to the Qiu family.
"This Qiu family is really troublesome! Can't they just tell us a place and let us go by ourselves? They have to send someone to pick us up, and it's been such a long time, and they haven't arrived yet." Yu Sheng waited for half an hour, yawned helplessly and said.
Lin Youfu, who was standing by, looked at Yu Sheng and explained, "Because he is the mayor after all. Although society is stable now, not everyone can see an important person like the mayor. We must confirm our identities before we can go in. After all, I have lived for decades, and this is my first time participating in an upper-class society event."
"Upper society!?" Yu Sheng thought about it carefully. All the upper societies he had seen seemed to be the same as ordinary people, nothing special.
The two were chatting when they saw a black Ferrari driving towards them.
In the car, a short-haired woman in her early twenties, wearing a black leather jacket, gently touched her temple with one hand. She held the phone and said impatiently, "Really, why do I have to do this? Isn't it the housekeeper's job to receive guests? I am a young lady after all, but I have fallen to the point of receiving guests. Hey, Second Uncle, please say something!"
"Ha, haha..." On the other side of the phone, her second uncle laughed, "Don't ask me about this. This is all your father's idea. Anyway, this guest is very important, so you should not do anything rash. Also, as a lady from a wealthy family, don't dress like a gangster all day. There are clothes in the car. If you don't like complicated women's clothing, just change into a princess dress or a small dress."
The corners of Qiu Ziling's mouth twitched, and she said angrily: "I won't wear a princess dress or a small dress, forget it. That's it, it's time, I'm going to die first!"
After turning off the phone, Qiu Ziling looked unhappy. She vaguely knew why her family asked her to come here to pick up Yu Sheng.
Inter-family marriages are not uncommon. Although free love has long been advocated, in her class, the premise of free love is class equality.
Just like a rich second generation, he may have a lover or play with celebrities outside, but the one he brings home must be of the same class, or simply a match made in the family, and only such a match can keep the family prosperous.
Her heart skipped a beat. Qiu Ziling had thought that this day would come a long time ago. After all, she was only twenty-one years old and hadn't even finished college.
However, she did not expect that reality would be so tragic, catching her off guard.
We stopped at the bus stop, and the housekeeper who was driving the car turned around and said, "Miss, we're here. The man wearing a shirt over there is Mr. Yu Sheng, and next to him is Lin Youfu, the head of Yilong Village."
After saying this, the butler stopped the car.
Qiu Ziling opened the bus door. There were only two people on the bus stop, and it was obvious who was who.
After all, this place is close to the countryside, and it is a countryside with almost no people living there. Except on special days, there are almost no people here.
Although she felt a little unhappy, Qiu Ziling still extended her hand: "Hello, are you Yu Sheng? I am Qiu Ziling, the daughter of Qiu Xiongyi. Please give me your guidance."
After looking up and down at this ruffian-like young lady, Yu Sheng put on a polite smile, stretched out his hand and said, "Hello, Yu Sheng!"
Qiu Ziling was slightly stunned. He looked at Yu Sheng, who was not handsome at all.
Although she was only wearing a leather jacket and had short hair, she was naturally beautiful. Many people would be amazed by her appearance. In addition, given her status, it was normal for others to look at her greedily or obscenely. However, Yu Sheng's eyes were strangely clean.
No, Qiu Ziling was born in a big family, and had been exposed to many flatterers and people of the same level since she was a child. The next second she knew she was wrong, Yu Sheng's eyes were a look she had never seen before, like the look of a superior looking at an inferior. Yu Sheng's eyes were not pure, but he didn't like her at all.
The girl couldn't help feeling a little unhappy, because you have to know who she is, Qiu Ziling, the daughter of Qiu Xiongyi.
Not to mention that her father was a high-ranking government official, her family was well-known in this foggy city. Yu Sheng, an unknown boy, someone she had never heard of in her circle, how could he look down on her.
You know, although she dresses like a female gangster and even a little non-mainstream, her suitors are all tall, rich and handsome men from aristocratic families.
He hesitated to let go, and Yu Sheng's mouth twitched, a little puzzled: "What's wrong with this little girl? She looks weird. She's been holding my hand for a minute, and she still won't let go? Should I say something? But what should I say? Is it because the back of my hand hurts? It's so embarrassing..."
At this time, the butler who was driving the car saw that the situation was not right and said repeatedly: "Miss, the master has ordered that you must rush home before 11 o'clock at noon. It's getting late now."
"Well! Let's get in the car." Qiu Ziling nodded silently and took the lead.
However, Yu Sheng did not feel anything wrong. As his strength grew stronger, Yu Sheng gradually adjusted to the position he deserved.
He does not need to curry favor with any powerful person. With the improvement of his strength and the support of the system, he himself is the most powerful person on the planet.
As for Qiu Ziling, apart from the fact that she was Qiu Xiongyi's daughter, she was not on the same level as him. In Yu Sheng's eyes, Qiu Xiongyi was the only one who was qualified to sit on the same platform and talk with him.
There was a weird atmosphere in the car.
Yu Sheng yawned as if nothing had happened, thinking in his heart how to make good use of this family dinner.
He had already checked the information about Qiu Xiongyi on the Internet, and he was almost a local lord. As the saying goes, a strong dragon cannot suppress a local snake. If he wanted to survive in Wudu, it didn't matter if he didn't have Qiu Xiongyi's support, but he absolutely couldn't make an enemy of Qiu Xiongyi.
And this time, Yu Sheng was just trying to make friends. If he could get something out of it, that would be great, but if not, then it would be best if we could just be friends for fun and drinks.
However, he was not from an aristocratic family after all, and it was already a great honor for Qiu Xiongyi, such a big figure, to send his daughter to pick him up. If this happened to other aristocratic family children, they would have definitely sensed that good luck had come.
But as for Yu Sheng… He naturally knew that the other party asked his daughter to pick him up because he valued him, but he would not think too much about it. After all, the two of them didn't know each other yet.
