Chapter 737: The Young Owner of the Immortal Sea Building

"He’s my brother’s friend. He just arrived in Dayu City today." Qin Fuwei had felt the same way when she first saw him, unable to believe someone so perfect could exist in this world.

What’s more, her brother was one of his first-rate guards, and she was determined to have her brother take her along this time.

Huo Liran’s entire heart hammered in her chest. She felt as if she’d been wasting her life all these years. Compared to this man, the men from Qingzhou weren’t fit to touch a single strand of his hair.

’If I’m going to marry someone, it has to be a man like him. Only then would my life be worthwhile.’

"Come on, Sister, let’s go get something to eat. We can talk as we eat." Huo Liran affectionately took Qin Fuwei’s hand. ’As long as I can get on her good side, a lot of problems will solve themselves.’

Qin Fuwei didn’t refuse.

The two went down to the third floor. The third floor was also a dining area, but it was much more luxurious than the first.

Those who could dine on the third floor were either rich or powerful.

"Liran." Huo Feng happened to run into Huo Liran as he was coming out of a private room.

"Second Brother."

Huo Feng’s gaze swept over Qin Fuwei. "And who is this?"

"Second Brother, this is the young mistress of the Immortal Sea Building. She can make the final decision on anything," Huo Liran immediately introduced.

"The young mistress of the Immortal Sea Building?" Huo Feng was skeptical.

"Yes, I am the young mistress of the Immortal Sea Building," Qin Fuwei confirmed with a nod.

"In that case..."

CLICK.

The tightly shut door to the room opened.

Huo Tu came out from inside. "Who just said they’re the young mistress of the Immortal Sea Building?"

Qin Fuwei was startled when she saw the person who came out.

"Second Uncle, it’s her. She can make the decision on anything." Huo Liran held onto Qin Fuwei’s arm, nudging her forward slightly.

"Little girl, can you really make the decisions here?" Huo Tu boomed.

Qin Fuwei was still a little afraid of Huo Tu’s scarred face. "What do you want? If you dare cause trouble in the Immortal Sea Building, I’ll call for my men."

"Don’t be afraid, Sister. This is my second uncle."

"Can you or can’t you make the decisions for the Immortal Sea Building?" Huo Tu asked, growing impatient.

"What is it you want to do?"

"To book out the whole restaurant, of course! What else would I want?"

Hearing this, Qin Fuwei was greatly relieved. "Of course I can make that decision. Booking out the restaurant is a small matter."

Huo Tu was delighted. "Good. Come in with me."

Qin Fuwei hesitated.

"Let’s go, Sister." Before Qin Fuwei could say anything, Huo Liran led her into the room.

Inside the private room.

Old Prince Feng was seated on a soft couch, apparently quite furious. The floor was littered with the shards of broken cups.

"Why isn’t the City Lord here yet?"

"He’s on his way, Your Highness. Please be patient."

"Greetings, Prince Feng."

Huo Tu led the group in and bowed to Old Prince Feng.

Old Prince Feng barely lifted his eyelids. "Didn’t I tell you to bring the Shopkeeper? So where is he?"

"Your Highness, instead of looking for the Shopkeeper, you should speak with this young lady," Huo Tu said, pointing to Qin Fuwei.

The moment Qin Fuwei heard the word "Prince," she was thoroughly frightened. When she saw Huo Tu pointing at her, she instantly regretted coming in.

"And this young lady is?"

"Your Highness, this is the young mistress of the Immortal Sea Building," Huo Tu said.

"Young mistress? The Immortal Sea Building has a young mistress?" Old Prince Feng sat up straight, scrutinizing the girl before him.

Qin Fuwei forced herself to stand tall, letting him size her up. ’So what if he’s an old prince?’ she thought. ’The Immortal Sea Building has never been afraid of troublemakers.’

The steward seemed to recall something. "Your Highness, the rumors do mention such a person."

"Oh?"

"Back then, the Emperor of Beili cited Boss Gu’s Beili citizenship as a reason to designate his businesses as imperial suppliers. In response, Boss Gu publicly stated that he was not the true owner of the Immortal Sea Building, but merely managing it for someone else. Some rumors claimed Gu Shuo only said this because he was unwilling to become an imperial supplier, while others insisted that the Immortal Sea Building truly did have another owner."
