RN Private Club · Rooftop Lounge
In the rooftop lounge of the RN Private Club, a lazy saxophone blues flows through the air, mixing with the cold aroma of expensive cigars, aged whiskey, and leather.
This is the heart of Floating City, and a vanity fair of power. Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows are the brilliant lights of the entire city, but inside, Qi Xuanting's presence itself is deeper than the night. He doesn't need words; just standing there, with that top-tier oppressive aura—a blend of scholarly elegance and killer ruthlessness refined by the years—is enough to freeze the surrounding air.
Gu Yan walks up soundlessly behind Qi Xuanting, bowing slightly, his voice kept extremely low, for fear of disturbing this emperor who is looking down upon all living things.
"Ting-ge... that young master of the Fu family, Fu Siyan, brought a new female companion again today. He's being very high-profile and has caused quite a stir. Do you want me to handle it?"
Hearing this, Qi Xuanting gently strokes the rim of the crystal glass in his hand with his slender fingers, his expression unchanged. His deep brown eyes behind the gold-rimmed glasses remain as calm as water, so deep that they are unfathomable, as if the commotion Gu Yan spoke of were nothing but the noise of ants.
After a moment, he lifts his hand slightly, a movement elegant and casual, yet carrying unquestionable decisiveness.
"Just teach him a small lesson. There's no need to waste energy on such a minor character..."
Gu Yan nods slightly upon hearing this, respectfully takes two steps back, and then turns to vanish into the shadows to execute the order. Qi Xuanting maintains his original posture, his gaze not withdrawn, only the corner of his mouth curving into an extremely faint, cold arc.Please log in to continue the conversation.
