The Revenge of the Reborn Supreme Sovereign-Chapter 375 - 365: Agent of East China! (7)

At the gate of Jinling University, under the bustling night sky, a vintage brown Bentley Mulsanne glided towards the entrance, exuding an aura of overwhelming luxury. The supercar’s appearance instantly captured the attention of everyone outside the campus.

Under countless gazes, the Bentley came to a smooth stop. Ma Yunbin quickly pushed the door open, got out, and scanned the campus entrance before his gaze settled on Qin Fan. Just as he was about to call out "Master Qin," the slowly approaching Qin Fan raised an index finger to his lips.

Seeing this, Young Master Ma had no choice but to swallow his words, his fawning smile twisting into a dopey grin.

"Holy shit! Isn’t that Qin Fan?"

"Don’t tell me the academic prodigy also has some incredible background?"

"Damn it, how is anyone else supposed to compete? How does all the cool stuff happen to him!"

"So my idol has powerful backing! He’s so, so handsome!"

The chatter suddenly grew loud. Listening to these voices, Qin Fan gave a helpless, wry smile.

"Master Qin, after you!" Ma Yunbin said respectfully in a low, obsequious voice as they reached the open car door.

Without a word, Qin Fan simply smiled faintly and got inside.

CLICK.

The solid car door shut as Ma Yunbin followed him in. The Bentley started, made an elegant U-turn, and drove off.

In the backseat, Qin Fan spoke up. "Talk. Why did you come to Jinling?"

"Master Qin, would you believe me if I said I’m here on business?" Ma Yunbin chuckled.

"Business?" Qin Fan frowned.

"Yeah. To be honest, I didn’t have to come. After all, the line of people wanting the distribution rights for Spirit Water No. 1 could stretch from the South Sea to the Pacific Ocean! But it’s been a while since I’ve seen you, Master Qin, and I kind of missed you, so I figured I’d make the trip," Ma Yunbin said breezily. He continued, "By the way, Master Qin, we’re meeting the prospective distributor for East China later. He’s arranged for dinner. Why don’t you come and size him up? If you’re not satisfied, we can just find someone else!"

"I’ll pass on the party. For now, help me investigate someone," Qin Fan said, shaking his head lightly.

"Investigate who?" Ma Yunbin blurted out.

"Chang Yuanyi. His grandfather is a retired high-ranking member of the provincial standing committee, and his father is the current head of the Jinling City Government," Qin Fan stated plainly.

However, upon hearing this name, Ma Yunbin was stunned.

"Master Qin, who—who did you say to investigate?" Ma Yunbin exclaimed in shock.

"Chang Yuanyi," Qin Fan repeated.

"H-h-holy shit! Master Qin, Chang Yuanyi is the very person applying to be the distributor for Spirit Water No. 1 in the East China region!" Ma Yunbin’s eyes widened in anger. "God damn it! Did that moron mess with you?"

At these words, the driver’s expression changed, and he began to tremble. For no other reason than the fact that Chang Yuanyi was his boss!

"Oh? So he’s the one applying for the East China distributorship? Interesting. Alright, in that case, I’ll go with you," Qin Fan said, a corner of his mouth curving into a sly smile as his expression turned playful.

"Master Qin, all that aside, did that idiot provoke you? Want me to take care of him?" Ma Yunbin persisted, circling back to the topic. He desperately wanted to make a bigger impression in Master Qin’s world; he truly wanted to serve him well.

"And you think you’re so tough?" Qin Fan tilted his head, teasing him.

Taken aback by the question, Ma Yunbin’s mind went blank. After a three-second pause, he finally said sheepishly, "Master Qin, in front of you, I wouldn’t dare call myself tough. But dealing with people like him is child’s play! I’m not bragging, but aside from those little bastards in Four-nine City, if you look at all of Huaxia, the number of so-called prodigal young masters that I need to be wary of is definitely not over twenty!"

At this, Qin Fan just shot him a look. Too lazy to deal with the showboating, he shook his head with a faint chuckle, leaned back against the seat, and closed his eyes.

「Twenty-odd minutes later.」

The Bentley pulled to a smooth stop in front of an upscale club.

Outside, a young man in lavish clothes saw the Bentley approach and immediately broke into an extremely fawning smile, rushing forward to greet them. He personally pulled the car door open, calling out obsequiously, "Young Master Ma!"

Whether or not Ma Yunbin was one of the people in charge of Spirit Water No. 1 was irrelevant; his status as a young master from Four-nine City was enough to make Chang Yuanyi lower himself.

With an indifferent "Mm," Ma Yunbin stepped out of the car. He then protectively held his hand over the top of the doorframe and said respectfully, "Master Qin, please!"

"Cut out these pointless formalities in the future," Qin Fan said with a glance at Ma Yunbin as he stepped out of the car, shaking his head wearily.

"Yes, yes, Master Qin!" Ma Yunbin replied with a sheepish chuckle, completely unfazed by Chang Yuanyi’s presence.

Nearby, Chang Yuanyi stood as if struck by lightning. Someone who could make the great Young Master Ma act this way, whom Young Master Ma would respectfully call ’Master Qin’... Could this be the big boss of No.1 Group? The outcast Qin Fan, who single-handedly destroyed the Qin family of Jiangzhou? As his thoughts raced, Chang Yuanyi became almost certain of the man’s identity, and his heart began to pound in his chest. It was a dizzying mix of shock and excitement! If he could forge a closer relationship with someone even Ma Yunbin had to treat like a submissive grandson, what would that imply for his future?

For the moment, however, he asked tactfully, "Young Master Ma, and this gentleman is...?"

"Qin Fan."

Without so much as a glance at him, Qin Fan uttered his name and walked straight inside.

Hearing the name, a wave of excitement washed over Chang Yuanyi. He quickly scurried to the front and, mimicking Ma Yunbin’s form of address, said with a fawning smile, "Master Qin, this way, please! Allow me to lead the way!" As he spoke, his steps became a clumsy, sycophantic shuffle.

The sight left everyone inside the club dumbfounded. Is—is that Jinling’s top young master, Chang Yuanyi? And who are those other two? No one had an answer for them.

Chang Yuanyi pushed open the door to a private room decorated in a simple, traditional style. Standing outside, he announced with a smile, "Master Qin, Young Master Ma, please!"

"Heh," Ma Yunbin chuckled, giving Chang Yuanyi a meaningful look before following Qin Fan inside.

After the three of them had entered, a waitress with elegant features and an excellent figure gracefully approached. Dressed in a modest cheongsam, she offered them a radiant smile. "Young Master Chang, shall I have the kitchen start sending out the dishes?"

"Yes! Also, bring out all the vintage red wine I have stored here!" Chang Yuanyi said with a gentlemanly smile.

"Of course, Young Master Chang!" the woman replied with practiced grace before politely excusing herself.

Inside the private room, once the door was closed, Ma Yunbin spoke up. "Young Master Chang, let’s settle our business first. We can eat slowly after."

"Yes, yes, whatever Young Master Ma says!" Chang Yuanyi agreed with a series of quick, fawning nods.

Before Ma Yunbin could continue, Qin Fan looked at Chang Yuanyi with a playful, mocking smile. "A father who’s the head of the City Government and a grandfather who’s a retired high-ranking political official... Is that background really enough to make the entire East China region respect you? Or let me put it this way: Do you really think you’re qualified to be the distributor for East China?"
