Chapter 129: The Lowly Third-Ranked Ba Ye

  Jiang Yanxi looked up at Yu Han, seeing his serious expression, which didn't seem like he was being ridiculous. However, many living examples around her made her understand a truth: men are not good things, they all think with their lower body. Now, Yu Han is saying such touching words to himself, is it true or is he trying to deceive himself in order to get her body?

  "Be responsible..." Jiang Yanxi muttered to herself, her mind a jumbled mess, unsure of how to face the situation. She hadn't even had her first love yet, and now she'd let this man take responsibility for her, but what if he wasn't sincere? What if he was just infatuated and wouldn't truly be responsible? If that were the case, wouldn't she end up losing big time?

  Yu Han knew that in her heart, there was a tangled struggle, and she didn't rush to succeed or expect Jiang Yan Xie to agree immediately. If it were so, Yu Han would think she was frivolous. Smiling, he said: "Let's go, I'll treat you to dinner."

  "It's still better to cook at home and save money," said Jiang Yanyue.

  "There are times when one must be frugal, but there are also times when one must splurge," said Yu Han.

  A cool sports car is meant to pick up chicks, if it's just for personal enjoyment, then the value and soul of the sports car are lost. As a limited edition Lamborghini LP650-4, its extremely beautiful streamlined appearance can bring the effect of picking up chicks to an extreme.

  Sitting in the car, Yu Han said with a rather proud tone: "How's that? My car isn't bad, right?"

  "Awesome, impressive, isn't it expensive?" Jiang Yanyue praised.

  "It's not much, just over 80 million yuan." Yu Han said with a pretentious tone, and now he truly felt the wonderful taste of being a rich person pretending to be elegant. Originally, he was very low-key, but now it seems that occasionally pretending to be elegant is quite interesting and humorous.

  "What, over 80 million is still not enough." Jiang Yanxi was startled and sighed endlessly.

  "It was given by others, and I didn't spend any money. The more the better, I won't mind. Come on, today I'll take you out and have a good time." Yu Han laughed.

  "Where are you going?" asked Jiang Yanxi.

  "A five-star hotel." Yu Han said, starting the car and speeding away.

  In Shanghai, five-star hotels are everywhere, and Yu Han didn't bother to research them. Unlike Qin Haojiang and Ren Tianming, who were professional hedonists, Yu Han wasn't interested in indulging in food, drink, and pleasure. He couldn't be bothered to waste time searching for a hotel, so he simply headed to the Jinmao Junyue Hotel where he had dinner with Chen Ergou two days ago.

  Yu Han stopped the car in front of the hotel, just about to get out, and saw a pure black Rolls-Royce Phantom approaching from behind through the rearview mirror. If Yu Han's Lamborghini LP650-4 is cool and stylish, then the Rolls-Royce Phantom is noble and luxurious, especially for those big bosses, who are quite enthusiastic about this car.

  Yu Han couldn't help but laugh when he saw the person getting out of the car, then said to Jiang Yanxi: "Let's get off too."

  Ba Jian Dong also had a tough time, people like him who mix in the underworld usually start from being small-time henchmen and gradually climb up, selling drugs, collecting protection fees, these are all low-level tastes, once they have capital in hand, they start playing big, casinos, entertainment venues, bath centers, these are all high-profit industries, to achieve what he has today, it's all been exchanged with blood and tears.

  Nowadays, society is not like Shanghai in the 60s and 70s, where there were constant killings everywhere, fighting for territory. Now, social groups only play with intelligence and strategy, but they will still die a miserable death. As for Ba Jian Dong collecting protection fees, it's not about the money, because each of his assets is worth millions.

  Collecting protection fees is purely a way to cultivate one's moral character, being idle and annoying, just to make people fear him, obey him, this is the policy of a tyrant, emperors throughout history have used brutal rule to suppress the common people, making them afraid to resist, producing a psychology of intimidation. Because wanting to make a name for oneself on the road requires extraordinary courage, not taking the usual path.

  Last time was really too damn unlucky, didn't expect to run into Yu Han that pervert, almost scared him to death. After returning home, I didn't go out for two or three days, and then honestly kept a low profile for a while. Now, just after adjusting my mood, I came out to socialize with a few friends from the official circle.

  Yu Han walked past the car head, standing with Jiang Yan Xi, one is a high rich handsome guy, and the other is a white rich beauty (er, actually Jiang Yan Xi is white and beautiful enough, but can't be called rich, while Yu Han is tall and handsome enough, but currently according to his economic situation, also has nothing to do with being rich), standing together, their lethality is extremely strong.

  Yu Han puffed on his cigarette and smiled as he said to Jiang Yanxi, "The big spender has arrived, now we can save some money on this meal."

  "Who's the big shot?" Jiang Yanxi looked around, but didn't see anyone who seemed like a big shot. Instead, she saw five middle-aged men getting out of a Rolls-Royce Phantom, dressed elegantly and behaving with refinement, clearly either officials or wealthy businessmen.

  Yu Han didn't say anything else and instead looked at Ba Jian Dong who was about to walk over.

  He was enthusiastically chatting with the several pot-bellied guys next to him, when he inadvertently glanced towards the hotel's main entrance, oh my god, he was so scared that he jumped up, the four government officials next to him were completely unprepared, seeing Ba Jian's sudden abnormal behavior, they also looked gloomy and surprised.

  "Ba Zong, what's wrong with you?" one of the big-backed men asked.

  Ba Jian Dong seemed to have not heard his companion's question at all, and the shocked expression immediately turned into a smile as he walked towards Yu Han.

  "Wow, wow, what a coincidence! I didn't expect to run into you here, Brother. What have you been up to lately? Do you still remember me?" Ba Jiandong completely put aside his own identity and spoke with utmost respect to Yu Han, while the four government officials behind him were all exchanging bewildered glances, thinking "What's going on here? Which play is he acting out now?"

  It's worth noting that the four people invited by Ba Jiandong are not ordinary individuals. The Supervision Bureau, Judicial Bureau, Finance Bureau and Culture Bureau - these four departments are all closely related to his business dealings. Even when there's nothing going on, they still need to be wined and dined as a form of socializing. Of course, lavish gifts are a given, and it's necessary to send them over at least once every half month.

  However, at the moment, Ba Jian Dong directly treated them as air and fawned on a young man. Ba Ye was also famous in Jianghu, but he was so humble and flattering. I wonder who this young man is?

  Yu Han smiled and said: "I forgot who, but I also can't forget the great Ba Ye, right?"

  Ba Jian Dong hastily said: "Big brother is really good at teasing little brother, little brother in front of big brother, not even a fart. Now it's just meal time, what a coincidence, rather than choosing a day, I've been wanting to invite big brother out for a casual meal, chat about family matters, today is perfect, little brother will be the host, big brother must definitely give me some face."
