Chapter 1196: Chapter 749: The Awe of the Second Generation

Liu Ping, Young Master of the Liu family, approached slowly.

Chu Mo remembered that the last time he saw him was half a year ago, when he went to Capital City to build the third branch of the Longevity Club.

Back then, Liu Ping was racing cars with a group of second-generation rich kids, exuding youthful vigor. At that time, Chu Mo had felt a sense of admiration for talent and had intended to recruit Liu Ping to his side. However, it was clear that Liu Ping had not yet reined in his focus and, ultimately, he chose to continue his reckless ways with his peers. When he finally came to meet Chu Mo, they were interrupted by a group of second-generation rich kids from the northwest, and in the end, Chu Mo did not get a chance to speak with him seriously. Since leaving Capital City then, Chu Mo had not seen him again.

In the blink of an eye, half a year had passed, and judging by the current situation, Young Master Liu still seemed to be mingling with the same crowd of rich second-generation kids, showing no signs of having grown up.

However, this had nothing to do with Chu Mo. Their acquaintance was but a brief intersection; Chu Mo simply had a favorable impression of this straightforward young man. He had already made a move to recruit him, and since the other party did not wish to change, Chu Mo naturally would not insist. At most, he would treat him as a casual friend, nodding and exchanging greetings when they met.

“Young Master Liu, it’s been quite a while since we last met, hasn’t it? How about sitting down for a drink?”

The Liu Ping standing before him was extremely respectful. He approached Chu Mo and then said earnestly:

“Young Master Chu, it’s been a long time.”

Liu Ping’s gaze swept over Heavenly Immortal behind Chu Mo. Clearly, he sensed that this young-looking man was extraordinary, but without dwelling on it, he sat down next to Chu Mo with slight restraint.

“I remember after our last meeting, did those young masters from the northwest continue to bother you, Young Master Liu?”

Chu Mo passed a glass of wine to Liu Ping, who immediately took it with both hands. After clinking glasses, Liu Ping tilted his head back and downed the contents of the glass, then let out a sigh before speaking:

“I’ve not yet had the chance to thank Young Master Chu for intervening. Last time, there was a small misunderstanding between our group of second-generation rich kids from Capital City and a group led by the third young master of the Wu family from the northwest. In the end, we decided to determine the outcome with a car race. We were lucky to win, but the third young master of the Wu family was not convinced and came looking for trouble. At that time, I was outnumbered and very thankful for Young Master Chu’s righteous help. This drink is to you.”

In the car race half a year ago, Liu Ping and his group of Capital City second-generation rich kids beat the group from the northwest led by the third young master. Afterwards, when they were confronted, it was then that Liu Ping truly witnessed what the real upper-class elite was like. At that time, Family Head Luo of Capital City’s second family, with assets of five hundred billion, and Chu Mo cordially detained the entire group of second-generation rich kids from the northwest, not even allowing them to leave the room.

Subsequently, the group of young heirs was detained for over a week, and it was only after a joint plea from the various powers in the northwest that they were released.

After this incident, the third young master of the Wu family lost his eligibility to inherit the family assets. He had been the most legitimate contender for the position of the family heir, but with just a single move from Chu Mo, he was stripped of his entitlement to the inheritance. Moreover, not only the third young master of the Wu family, but all the second-generation heirs who had followed him faced severe punishment.

It was since then that Liu Ping truly realized how naive their previous shenanigans had been. No matter how arrogant or spirited they were, when they truly faced those top-tier influential figures, they amounted to nothing.

So, after that day, Liu Ping had made up his mind to quit fooling around and to do something substantial and dignified.

Chu Mo looked at Liu Ping, who was now sitting with a reserved expression, and slightly curved his lips into a smile. After clinking glasses with him and taking a sip, Chu Mo said indifferently:

“It was just a helping hand.”

Liu Ping, who had just finished his drink again, looked over the crowd before him. Although only a regular second-generation heir without the slightest bit of martial arts, he had seen various scenes and people from a young age and still had some discernment. A quick scan over the individuals present gave him a chilling feeling.

The young women before him all looked to be in their twenties, each more beautiful than the last, even comparable to Yang Duoer, Capital City’s number one beauty. Yet, these women all carried an aura that intimidated him far more than that of his own bodyguards.

For the sake of protecting his safety as the only heir of the Liu family, Liu Ping was always accompanied by a Grandmaster-level bodyguard. He had always considered his bodyguard to be very strong, but in front of these goddess-like women, his own seemed quite ordinary.

When Liu Ping’s gaze happened upon Miss Xue Yuluo of the Xue family, just a single glance from her was enough to make him lower his head and not dare to look carelessly anymore.

Startled by Xue Yuluo’s glance, Liu Ping swallowed hard before he turned to Chu Mo with a cautious look and said:

“Young Master Chu, I’m currently handling affairs for Miss Yang Duoer of the Yang family in Capital City. According to Duoer, she wants to gather a group of second-generation heirs to form a circle. Miss Duoer intends to bring me to the forefront, and she has also said that you, Young Master Chu, are one of our own, so there’s no need for secrecy. If possible, I wonder if Young Master Chu would be willing to honor us with your presence for a drink upstairs!”
