At nine in the evening, while most people might be resting, a group of rich young masters were just starting their nightlife.
Heaven on Earth, located in the heart of the city's CBD, gathered all the forces and financial groups of the Four Great Families and Ten Minor Families. More than a bar, it was a social hub for conglomerate powers, assembling all the upper elites of Imperial Capital.
"Welcome, Young Master Ling." At the bar entrance, the female hosts bowed respectfully as soon as they saw Ling Weifeng.
"Follow me, brother. Tonight I'll show you the dazzling world." Ling Weifeng was excited; he had been to Heaven on Earth many times, but this was Lin Tai's first visit.
Before, he had invited Lin Tai, but Lin Tai's heart and eyes were only for Xia Shihan.
Where Xia Shihan was absent, Lin Tai would not appear either.
Bringing Lin Tai here was the first successful step to help him forget Xia Shihan. Ling Weifeng believed that once Lin Tai saw enough of this world, he'd leave Xia Shihan behind.
Heaven on Earth had two sections: the noisy outside with pounding bass and professional bands rivaling concerts, where business elites transformed into wild horses sweating on the dance floor; and the quiet inside with luxurious private rooms, silent and serene.
"Let's find a seat first." Ling Weifeng was familiar with the place, pulling Lin Tai to a booth and skillfully operating the drink ordering machine.
"What do you want to drink?"
"Just order a cocktail." Lin Tai scanned around for Zhao Gang but didn't forget his purpose.
"Come on, let's go dance." Ling Weifeng invited him up.
"No, you go. I'm fine here." Lin Tai shook his head; whether past or present, he didn't like noisy bars and preferred quietly resting with Hecate's beautiful legs.
"Alright." Ling Weifeng nodded, knowing Lin Tai wouldn't like this chaos quickly but would adjust with more visits.
"Hey, isn't that Elder Brother?" Lin Tai had given up looking for Zhao Gang, sure he'd come find him later.
Instead, he was found first.
"Who are you?" Several young men in floral shirts approached excitedly.
Lin Tai didn't recognize them.
"Elder Brother, didn't you forget? We were in detention together yesterday." The leader sat beside Lin Tai.
"Detention?" Lin Tai looked at them, sure he had no memory.
Could Ye Bai have planted someone close to him?
What was so great about being in detention together?
Seeing their excitement...
"Elder Brother, I'm Lei Ming." The leader introduced himself as a Little Young Master of the Lei Family.
"I'm Hu Qian."
Lin Tai vaguely recalled the names but not well.
"We're all from the Ten Minor Families." Lei Ming reminded, frustrated that Lin Tai didn't remember, as they were fellow Young Masters.
"I remember now, Lei Ming and Hu Qian." Lin Tai recalled they were Side Character s in the original novel.
But unlike Lin Tai the villain, they were henchmen loyal to Ye Bai.
Originally unrelated to inheritance, they followed Ye Bai, inheriting their family businesses and committing to Ye Bai's path.
Typical male-oriented plot: follow the male lead to succeed, oppose to fail.
They were clearly on Ye Bai's side, destined for smooth futures.
"What do you want from me?" Lin Tai, a villainous male side character, saw these henchmen as completely opposed forces.
Them calling him Elder Brother from behind was another disruption to the plot.
"Elder Brother, we saw your impressive flirting skills in detention yesterday. Teach us a few moves." Lei Ming and Hu Qian admired Lin Tai's charm.
As pampered rich kids, their main interest was flirting.
"Flirting?" Lin Tai rolled his eyes. As a dedicated villain, he had no time for such things.
"Elder Brother, stop pretending. We saw the four heroines rescue you from detention simultaneously." Their eyes were full of admiration.
For men like them, Lin Tai's prowess was enviable.
Lin Tai silently rolled his eyes; the four women only wanted to drag him out to take revenge.
He didn't bother explaining. Their IQ was too low.
"Lei Ming, Hu Qian, is this the Eldest Young Master Lin you bragged about?" A youth who came with them asked.
