In this society where monstrous figures run amok, you will be treated like an ant if you don't show a monstrous side of you.

　　If Su Tao hadn't slapped Ye Ling, he would only be considered as a physician and martial artist. He wouldn't receive the importance of someone like Tong Zuoqing, not to mention receiving the latter's name card.

　　Many people present won't feel that Su Tao was stupid. On the contrary, they would think Su Tao was being smart. He was initially an insignificant figure, but he had become the main lead here by trampling on the siblings of the Ye Family.

　　Starting from today, there will be a figure called Su Tao in Beijing's upper circle. Although the Ye Family might crush him, at least he had caused everyone to look at him in a new light.

　　Naturally, Su Tao's actual situation wouldn't be terrible.

　　If Su Tao was beaten up by Ye Sheng, the Ni Family would at most compensate him. But now that he had beaten up Ye Sheng, the Ni Family would have to protect him since he has saved the Ni Family from a potentially humiliating situation. If the Ni Family remained indifferent under this situation, then they would be looked down upon by the other families.

　　At this moment, Ni Buwei felt great. Even if the two siblings of the Ye Family came to cause trouble, someone has resolved the problem without him making a move and saved him from being embarra.s.sed. This way, he would be in a higher position when negotiating with Ye Yilong.

　　Standing on the stage, Ni Buwei took the mic and smiled. "A small incident occurred earlier, but I'm sure everyone doesn't know that it's an event that I've staged."

　　Hearing his words, the guests burst into laughter. Although they looked down on how indifferent Ni Buwei had acted, he also won their admiration for being able to joke at this timing. He's certainly worthy of his t.i.tle, the Tortoise of Beijing.

　　Seeing that the atmosphere has eased up, Ni Buwei continued, "Today's banquet has just begun, so please stay. We've prepared a sumptuous meal and wine for everyone to enjoy. Furthermore, as long as everyone is united in our periodical gathering, we can strive to improve together by pus.h.i.+ng each other."

　　After a brief pause, his tone became gentle, seemingly holding a little sorrow as he carried on, "Lastly, I'm sure everyone knows about the marriage incident of my daughter, Jingqiu. I can only say that she has encountered the wrong man and ended a relations.h.i.+p. There's an ancient phrase in China, to part without any hard feelings. Since they've already broken up, then there's no reason to dwindle on it anymore and look forward to a brighter future. This is the philosophy of life. At the same time, I am also announcing that my Ni Family is looking for a son-in-law. If any of you has a talented young man, you can introduce him to my wife and I. We don't seek much, we only ask for a decent background, someone righteous, and will treat my daughter sincerely."

　　As he spoke, Ni Buwei's eyes turned red with a tear rolling down his cheek. His acting skills were actually comparable to a veteran actor in dramas.

　　Standing amongst the crowd, Tong Zuoqing smiled. "Are you not tempted to be Ni Family's son-in-law?"

　　With a grin, Qin Jingyu replied in disdain, "Indeed, there's no pushover amongst the patriarchs of the prominent families. There's a reason for Ni Buwei to be nicknamed the Black Tortoise. He's an old tortoise with a thick face and good at enduring. This is also the reason why he has been doing so well in the business industry."

　　"Oh, I nearly forgot that your target is to be the son-in-law of the Shui Family!" Only Tong Zuoqing dared to joke around with Qin Jingyu and smiled. "Vermillion, Black Tortoise, Azure Dragon, and White Tiger. None of the prominent families are pushovers. The Azure Dragon, Ye Yilong, has a ferocious character, and he's the exact opposite of the Black Tortoise, Ni Buwei. If they clash, I wonder if the Azure Dragon's claws will be sharper or the Black Tortoise's sh.e.l.l will be tougher."

　　The four prominent families of Beijing, namely the Azure Dragon Ye Family, the White Tiger Gu Family, the Vermillion w.a.n.g Family, and the Black Tortoise Ni Family. When a clash occurred between the Black Tortoise Ni Family and Azure Dragon Ye Family, it naturally attracted Tong Zuoqing's gossipy interest.
