All along the way, Zhang Jun and Lin Xian were having pleasant chat with each other. Time went by unknowingly and it was afternoon when the train arrived at Donghai Railway Station. When they walked out of the station, there was a black Mercedes- Benz already awaiting outside.

The car was obviously a limousine, at a price of two million yuan at least.

A thirty-something young man in suit got off the car. He was tall, sharp-eyed and vigorous. He bowed to Lin Xian and greeted her respectfully, “Miss, welcome back!”

Lin Xian smiled at the dazed Zhang Jun and invited him, “Get in, Junior!”

Getting into the car, Zhang Jun muttered to himself, “Is Lin Xian a member of 'Affluent Second Generation'? But she said that she works in a jewelry company.”

Lin Xian could tell Zhang Jun's surprise, she said with a laughter, “Let's go to the hotel first, Junior. After was.h.i.+ng, I'll take you to visit our jewelry store.”

Zhang Jun nodded and said, “Senior, you seem to be really rich. Are you a member of 'Affluent Second Generation' as it is said in the legend?”

Lin Xian gave him a look and said, “I didn't tell you before that my family is running jewelry business, and I'm in charge of several jewelry stores in Donghai.”

Zhang Jun said with a forced smile, “I thought you are just working in a jewelry store, but it turns out that you are the boss!”

Lin Xian seemed to notice Zhang Jun's restraint, so she said, “Maybe I will work for you some day, Junior.”

Zhang Jun was heartened by this joke-like inspiration. He said to himself, “Zhang Jun, how can you feel inferior just because other people are wealthy? No matter whom you are facing with, it'll be wise for you to keep a peaceful mind.”

Thinking in this way, he gradually calmed down and began to laugh and talk again.

On the way to the hotel, the driver said, “Miss, you shouldn't go to the mountain area on your own this time. The folkways in such areas are fierce and the transportation is very poor. If by any chance you're endangered, how can we account for it to the boss, your father?”

Lin Xian laughed and said, “I have been back safely now, haven't I? And I gained a lot this time. I have reached preliminary intentions of cooperation with several jade mines over there. If successful, it will save a lot of purchasing costs for my family business.”

Li Hu，the driver, was a veteran of special forces. He was extremely good at martial art, so he was mainly in charge of Lin Xian's security. Zhang Jun could feel the vigilance towards him from Li Hu since his appearance. He guessed that it was a kind of instinctive reaction.

When the car pulled up at a five-star hotel, Lin Xian and Zhang Jun entered directly, while Li Hu went to the parking area.

Lin Xian had reserved a suite. To Zhang Jun's surprise, she didn't reserve another room for him, which meant they would stay in the same suite. However, Zhang Jun soon got to know that the bodyguard Li Hu would also live together with them. This made Zhang Jun regret so much, who had fantasized a vague flirtatious relations.h.i.+p.

Entering the room, Zhang Jun had a bath and changed his clothes into a suit. The suit was specially prepared for his cla.s.s reunion. It cost him more than 2,000 yuan, which pained him a lot for the large sum for several days.

But now he thought the suit was worth buying because he had met Lin Xian who dressed elegantly and decently, and looked so charming. To accompany such a beauty, it would be too incongruous if he dressed too casually.

Having put on a tie, Zhang Jun grinned in the mirror and said, “What a handsome young man you are!”

At this time, Lin Xian was talking on the phone in the living room. When she saw Zhang Jun dressed up in a formal manner, she can't help smiling and gives him a thumb-up.

Zhang Jun chuckled and sat on the opposite sofa.

After the phone call, Lin Xian looked Zhang Jun up and down, then said with a smile, “Junior, you look very handsome in this outfit. Since you are so attractive, what about I introduce a beauty to you?”

Zhang Jun chuckled, “Aren't you a beauty, Senior?”

Lin Xian rolled her eyes and said, “b.u.m-boy, how dare you have designs on me! I guess you're not going to mess around in Donghai?”

Zhang Jun chuckled again. Getting along with Lin Xian for a long time, he felt really comfortable both in body and mind.

They cracked several jokes with each other, then Lin Xian said, “Since you have changed clothes, I'll show you around the top floor first instead of visiting my stores.”

Zhang Jun was staggered and asked, “What's on the top floor?”

“There is a club on the top floor of this building and I happen to be a member here,” Lin Xian said with a smile.

Donghai is one of the largest cities in the country, and this five-star hotel has a deep background, so a private club was established here as early as ten years ago. Zhang Jun did not belong to this circle, naturally he did not know anything about the club.

This time Li Hu didn't follow, and only Lin Xian and Zhang Jun went there.

They entered the elevator and stood very close to each other. On this occasion, Lin Xian got dressed in a light blue evening dress and wore a diamond necklace on her white neck, which was s.h.i.+ning brilliantly.

On her left wrist, she wore a white jade bracelet. The combination of suet-jade and snow-white skin reflected her n.o.ble and elegant temperament.

Zhang Jun couldn't help praising, “You are so beautiful, Senior!”

Lin Xian smiles at him with jade-like teeth. Under the soft light in the elevator, she adopted a charming posture. Zhang Jun smelled her delicate body fragrance, and almost had a strong impulse to use his X-ray vision power again in order to see through this beautiful woman in front of him.

They took the elevator to the top floor. Once the elevator door opened, they saw a huge golden screen with the reception desk aside.

On the left and right side of the elevator gate stood two young men in suit. Both were tall and st.u.r.dy and sharp-eyed. They bowed to them with courtesy and said politely, “Our honored guests, please show your ident.i.ties!”

Lin Xian gave them a smile and took out a magnetic card from her bag and handed it over. One man took the card and swiped it on the left counter, and immediately all the data in the card were displayed. Then another waiter came out from behind the reception desk and bowed to them and said, “Welcome, Miss Lin and gentleman!” and led the way ahead.

The hand-woven carpet they walked on was very precious. Zhang Jun darted a glance at the carpet and X-rayed it, he found the carpet was made of a tight weave and exquisite workmans.h.i.+p which was by no means affordable to ordinary people.

The waiter led them into a huge living room, which was over 1,000 square meters in size and was divided into several small areas. At this moment, dozens of people were sitting separately in the room chatting in twos and threes.

Lin Xian's appearance attracted the attention of these people. Immediately, many of them stood up and greeted her with smile.

“Miss Lin, long time, no see. How should you be free to come here?”

“You're getting more and more beautiful since these days I haven't seen you, and even the old uncle like me has been attracted!”

Lin Xian greeted these people with smile one by one, calling this Mr. Zhou and that Uncle Zhao. Apparently, they were all acquaintances.

Among them was a young man aged about twenty-five-or-six, who was handsome and strong. He came over with a smile and said, “Xiao Xian, it's really for a long time you haven't been here.”

“Big Wen, aren't I here now?” Lin Xian laughed and said. Then she introduced Zhang Jun to him, “This is Zhang Jun, my friend. And this is Zhuang Wen. You can call him 'Big Wen', 'course he is the first childe in Donghai and it is he who set up this club.”

“Ho-ho!” Zhuang Wen laughed and reached out to shake hands with Zhang Jun, “h.e.l.lo, bro!”

Zhang Jun felt that this man's hands were stable and dry, and he was mild to him. Zhang Jun had a good impression of him, so he nodded and spoke to him with a smile, “h.e.l.lo! Nice to meet you, Big Wen!”

At the first sight, Zhuang Wen sensed a unique temperament in Zhang Jun and he thought Zhang Jun must come from an extraordinary background. However, during the following conversation, he found that Zhang Jun was just from an ordinary family, which made him very curious about him. How could such an ordinary young man have this kind of ethereal temperament?
