This time, the ones seeing him off were all relatively well-known scions of prestigious families in the capital, among them some with governmental backgrounds. However, when facing "Young Master Gong," they were unbelievably humble and respectful, clearly trying to curry favor.

The reason lies in Young Master Gong’s real identity.

Young Master Gong’s name is Gong Xingteng, and his true identity is as follows— the second young master of the Gong Family, one of Huaxia’s century-old elite families!

Huaxia’s century-old elite families!

On the surface, these century-old families remain calm and composed, yet they own countless companies, genuinely controlling various industries. Even picking a few people at random from among them would reveal net worth not below those on the wealthiest lists. They’re like a lurking tiger: provoke them slightly, and you end up crushed!

No matter your billions in assets, once you touch something untouchable, overnight you could lose everything, and no one in Huaxia would dare negotiate with you.

These families have existed for centuries, with incredibly deep backgrounds and financial resources.

Though the Gong Family ranks lower among Huaxia’s century-old families, countless people still seek their favor because a single word from such an entity can alter your life.

"Young Master Gong. How long will you be in Shanghai this time? We all will miss you!" One of the scions in the crowd swarming after him stepped forward and said.

Gong Xingteng replied arrogantly, "No rush. This time I’m just going to Shanghai to toy with the position of deputy director. The old man said I should casually gain some merits there, so it’ll be easier to place me in higher positions later...."

"Hahaha." Another scion next to him flattered, "Once Young Master Gong returns after polishing his credentials, your future will naturally be immeasurable! At that time, we brothers will also rely on Young Master Gong to take care of us...."

"Hehe." Young Master Gong chuckled lightly, without concealing the pride on his face. With a big wave of his hand, he picked up a cigar, and someone immediately leaned over to light it for him.

"By the way." As they walked through the VIP corridor in the airport lounge, Guo Dahua, the vice president of a real estate company in the capital, suddenly remembered something and pondered out loud, "I wonder, Young Master Gong, have you heard? Recently there’s someone in the capital who’s been gaining quite a reputation...."

Gong Xingteng thought for a moment, then said, "I know, it’s that eldest young master from the Zhong Family, right?"

Regarding all the various rumors in the capital these days, Gong Xingteng was well aware, especially about this Zhong Family’s eldest young master. He has caused a great sensation in the upper echelons of capital society, with countless prominent families actively trying to befriend and visit him. Gong Xingteng was curious if this Zhong Family’s eldest young master had really done something astronomical to cause such a stir throughout the capital.

And as soon as the Zhong Family’s eldest young master was mentioned, everyone immediately became interested, voicing their opinions one after another.

"This Zhong Family’s eldest young master is extraordinary. In just a few days, the entire capital’s high society is talking about the Zhong Family and their eldest young master. Those few senior military figures our family knows all visited him personally with clear intentions of currying favor. The Zhong Family has really produced an extraordinary figure this time!"

"It’s said that this Zhong Family eldest young master is very mysterious; many have investigated but found nothing. All that is known is that recently he survived against a military force in Japan without dying. He destroyed a Shinto Shrine and shot down a helicopter!" one of the scions said.

Although both Huaxia and Japan are trying hard to block news of this incident, the actions of Xiao Tian in Japan have still spread back home. Once the information returned, coupled with some moves by the military, the deeds of this Zhong Family’s eldest young master were confirmed, instantly shocking the entire capital.

"Damn, this sounds exaggerated?" Having heard of the various feats of this Zhong Family eldest young master, many were stunned and exclaimed, "No wonder some of my friends in various circles have been restless these days; it turns out a Young Master Zhong has emerged from our capital. It’s said the Dark List is about to open in a few days; what rank do you think Young Master Zhong will achieve?"

"If it’s really as the rumors say, getting into the top ten shouldn’t be a problem...."

"Hmph, it’s just a rumor after all."

At that moment, Gong Xingteng, who hadn’t spoken much, suddenly broke the silence. His displeasure immediately quieted the scene.

Gong Xingteng, from a young age, loved vanity, and he was somewhat envious of the attention this Zhong Family eldest young master garnered.

Yet, despite his words, Gong Xingteng furrowed his brows. He was filled with curiosity about this Zhong Family eldest young master.

As far as he knew, the Zhong Family used to be just a red family in the capital, though it carried weight there. But not quite at the summit of the capital. However, once the deeds of this Zhong Family’s eldest young master spread, it sparked a new wave of speculation. Even his family’s usually high-status elder broke convention to personally call and send gifts of congratulation, making Gong Xingteng even more curious about this mysterious Zhong Family’s eldest young master.

Seeing that Gong Xingteng didn’t seem to like discussing news about the Zhong Family’s eldest young master, everyone sensibly fell silent. Just as they entered the lounge, Gong Xingteng made a new discovery.

He initially intended to rest on a sofa for a while, but before lying down, a stunning woman appeared within his sight.

The woman had a slender and voluptuous figure, her face exquisitely carved and alluring. What caught his attention and set him afire were her pair of smooth, white thighs.

Those thighs adhered to the golden ratio, long and elegantly rounded. Even the numerous young models he had been with couldn’t compare to one ten-thousandth.

Besides his vanity, Gong Xingteng also had a strong desire for conquest. Born into a century-old aristocratic family, nothing he wanted was unattainable—he had forcibly taken numerous actresses before. This fostered a subtle air of dominance and desire in him, so when he saw that girl, an explosion went off in his mind. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

She is mine!

That girl was surprisingly Lin Bingxuan, who was traveling with Xiao Tian to catch the flight this time.

"Hehe." With his status, there probably weren’t many women in the capital he couldn’t obtain. So, Gong Xingteng wore a confident expression and walked directly towards Lin Bingxuan.

"Miss, my name is Gong Xingteng. I am the second young master of the Gong Family in Huaxia. I wonder if you’d be so kind as to be friends?"
