Therefore, the first stop for Qin Fang and his group today was naturally the Quanjude Roast Duck Restaurant located in Wangfujing.

Wangfujing is the most famous commercial district in Capital City, and in recent years, its development has accelerated. Starting from the south entrance at Beijing Hotel and heading north, you can see high-hanging signs, dense shops, and swarms of people moving like a flowing stream. From morning till night, every day the street is visited by up to a million customers, both domestic and foreign.

This street now boasts the largest commercial building in Asia, with the highest density and concentration of large shopping malls, hotels, and specialty stores.

Wangfujing is also the nearest major shopping area connected to domestic commercial travel agencies and is rife with state-owned brands and time-honored establishments.

This street, full of modern flavors, high quality, and standards, has become an international central commercial street linked as a friendly sister street to the Champs-Élysées in France, elevating its international status continuously.

Department stores, the Foreign Language Bookstore, Danyao Building, Gongmei Building, Wangfu Women's Department Store, Muslim Building, New Dong'an Market, along with Shengxifu, Tongshenghe, Donglaishun, Quanjude, Silian Hair Salon, and Hundred Herbs Pharmacy make up this 810-meter-long street brimming with commercial vitality and modern shopping experience.

Before coming to Capital City, Tang Feifei was clamoring to have Qin Fang accompany her to stroll through Wangfujing. Unfortunately, that was not possible before the old man's grand birthday celebration.

However, Qin Fang was not without female company. For instance, Miao Yue beside him was pondering and hoping that Qin Fang would accompany her shopping after their meal.

She had also deliberately kept her makeup simple, just enough to slightly alter her appearance and prevent herself from being easily recognized.

The celebrities in the entertainment industry all work extremely hard, even stepping out can result in encounters with awaiting paparazzi, and one careless moment could lead to unsuitable photos being snapped. Combined with some reporters' knack for taking things out of context, scandalous headlines can quickly emerge...

Obviously, a bit of hype can help boost fame, but these paparazzi often sneak photos that are negative, which is something many celebrities deeply loathe.

Now that Miao Yue's fame had grown considerably, she had to wear makeup whenever she went out. Otherwise, tomorrow's newspapers' entertainment sections or online entertainment portals might feature reports of Miao Yue shopping with a mysterious man, and Qin Fang's identity could be exposed quickly...

But Miao Yue never demanded much from Qin Fang, and considering the mishap that occurred yesterday—even though it was resolved—Qin Fang still felt a bit guilty, and thus he complied with her small request.

Concurrently, it was rare for him to visit Capital City, and given the many women in Ninghai, he couldn't possibly show unequal attention; he definitely had to bring back gifts for them as well. After all, he wasn't short on money and didn't need to care too much about such expenses...

Tang Feifei was originally supposed to accompany him to buy gifts for Xiao Muxue, Wen Yan, and even Qin Fang's mother, Qin Qing, but Qin Fang's women were not limited to just these few. There were some that Tang Feifei didn't know about, so it was more appropriate for Qin Fang to bring Miao Yue along to pick out gifts.

They set aside shopping for the moment, as it was now time for lunch, and everyone was famished, especially Qin Fang, whose martial arts training gave him an appetite larger than most. He was not one to waste Superior Soup Dumplings, and so he was naturally very hungry now.

Ling Feng was just as famished as Qin Fang. With his sturdy body and high level of physical activity, he also had a large appetite. His usual meal was the combined amount needed by Qiao Zhenfei and Lu Jun, multiplied by two to just make do. Now, his stomach was growling with hunger...

After all, he hadn't outdrunk Qin Fang last night and ended up crawling away, vomiting messily in the middle of the night, left with an empty stomach...

Chang'an Club wasn't too far from Wangfujing, but the traffic in Capital City could indeed be a major issue. After wasting more than ten minutes, they finally arrived at Quanjude Roast Duck Restaurant in Wangfujing.

"One is not a hero until he has reached the Great Wall, and it's a pity not to eat Quanjude roast duck..."

This is a common saying among travelers visiting Capital City, highlighting two very famous spots—the Great Wall and Quanjude.

The Great Wall doesn't need much introduction; it is the sixth wonder of the world, and its presence can even be faintly seen from space. It's the crystallization of the wisdom and blood of the Dragon Country's people over thousands of years. Although it spans half the country, the most common route to visit starts from Capital City...

The Great Wall was naturally one of the places Qin Fang wanted to visit, but with today's limited time, it had to be postponed, and what remained, Quanjude Roast Duck, was now within sight.

"Let's go, let's go inside..."

Leading the way was Qiao Zhenfei, with Quanjude's manager already waiting at the door.

Of course, it wasn't out of respect for Qin Fang or Miao Yue, but mainly because of the status held by people like Qiao Zhenfei and Lu Jun; after all, Qin Fang was still a nobody in Capital City.

In fact, he couldn't be considered a nobody anymore, as the incident from last night had already made his name known to many people within the Capital City circle, or perhaps 'notoriety' was a more fitting term.

Notorious or not, Qin Fang didn't care much, as his show of strength last night had already flexed his muscles to certain individuals, and he believed those lesser characters would know to back off now.

Having dealt so severely with Chen Shijie from the Tang Family, he would be even less polite to outsiders, especially with someone secretly taking photos of the door on the wall inside the private room at Chang'an Club, which had scared quite a few people...

These matters were still of little concern to Qin Fang now, as he came merely to eat. The group made their way into Quanjude and directly into the VIP private dining room, which was reserved especially for these young masters; an opportunity ordinary people rarely had.

But before they reached their reserved room, they saw a group of people seemingly just finished dining, coming towards them, and the two groups met head-on.

"Hmm?"

Seeing the approaching group, Qiao Zhenfei was also slightly startled, especially by the young man at the center, who was clearly the star amongst them—causing a particularly strange expression to form on Qiao Zhenfei's face.

He reacted this way, and so did Lu Jun and Ling Feng; they wore odd expressions, then looked at Qin Fang, leaving him completely puzzled as to why the three of them reacted that way.

"Youngest, that guy is Xu Ling..."

Seeing Qin Fang's confusion, Ling Feng indicated the young man surrounded by the crowd and revealed his identity.

Hearing that name, Qin Fang also had a strange look on his face. It truly was a small world, as Xu Ling was a stubborn stumbling block on his path to union with Tang Feifei.

Although Xu Ling himself had never openly shown hostility towards Qin Fang, everyone knew he wouldn't just let things go, or rather, almost all the remarks and actions of people like Chen Shijie and Miao San'er had his shadow behind them...

"Third Young Master, long time no see..."

Xu Ling was clearly the leader of the group, and the Xu Family was one of the top political families, stronger than the Tang Family, though not quite at the level of the Qiao Family. As one of the most outstanding descendants of the Xu Family's third generation, Xu Ling was also a top figure in the Capital City circle, so when he met Qiao Zhenfei, his behavior wasn't at all restrained and was quite relaxed—a completely equal attitude in conversation.

"Indeed, it's been a long time..."

Qiao Zhenfei's expression was odd, recognizing some people behind Xu Ling, like the younger members of the Xu Family, and even Er Lengzi, Miao San'er, was in the group. The only one likely missing was Chen Shijie, who Qin Fang had sent to the hospital...

"You must be Qin Fang... delighted to meet you!"

As one of the most outstanding descendants of the Xu Family's third generation, Xu Ling had a great eye for detail. His gaze passed Qiao Zhenfei and landed directly on Qin Fang. With a radiant smile, he extended his hand toward Qin Fang in a surprisingly friendly gesture...(To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for it at qidian.com.
