Caught you, Little Fish

"Hey, isn't that the heir of Han family? What the, he looks younger than me! How could he be the owner of Energence?"

A schoolgirl turned to her brother, who was munching on streetfood as if he had just been starved for a month. Crumbs were littered around his dumb face, and his clueless expression made her sob internally.

"The only thing you know how to do is eat! Aish, why can't my older brother be smart and handsome as well?"

They turned their gazes to the eye-catching figure standing outside one of the tallest company buildings in their city. The young man was talking into his phone leisurely, whilst the suit-clad man standing next to him seemed to be fussing over him worriedly. With one glare, the assistant stopped his erratic movements and stood behind Zhang Guanting with a docile expression.

"Haha sis, did you see that? He doesn't seem to have a good personality though. Would you rather your brother be a moral citizen or a rich young master?"

"A rich young master!" The schoolgirl answered without a second of hesitation.

"Pei, you really are a gold-digging witch! How can you say that to your brother?"

He took one more glance at the upright figure, who had entered through the revolving door and was striding confidently to the escalator. The glass exterior of the Energence building was so shiny it practically blinded him. The teenage boy sighed, the world of the filthy rich was practically impossible for them to enter. He needed to work hard in the future to be able to support his family, let alone become a rich young master!

Guanting, who had just settled into his seat with a cup of coffee, also sighed. This morning had really been too action-filled, he praised himself to the sky for deciding to choose martial arts as his skill. If not for that skill he would have been knocked out flat and taken to who knows where, missing this extremely important meeting, which meant losing out on his fifty million dollars. He slammed his cup of coffee on the table in anger.

Fuck, my fifty million!

748 was horrified. He watched his host's actions in fascination and felt that his host had really become a greedy millionaire with no morals.

The meeting was about to begin when Secretary Yuan - who was still fussing over him - suddenly received a phone call. Guanting watched him leave the room with a terrifying glint in his eyes.

"Boss," he bent down and whispered in his ear after he came back, "Da-ge found out who sent those men after you. It was the old madam."

Guanting clicked his tongue in annoyance and massaged his temples, sipping on his coffee slowly as he pondered over his next course of action.

"Cancel my meeting with Mister Peng and leave my schedule empty for the evening. Tell your da-ge to let go and keep an eye on her for me."

"Yes sir," Secretary Yuan quickly jotted down some notes in his phone.

Dear God up above, Guanting moaned in his heart, his face turning icy cold. Please accept Zhang An into your heavenly ranks soon. Thank you.

He turned his sharp eyes to the men who were sitting around the table, making a gesture for them to begin.

He would not want to wish the life of the filthy rich onto anyone. It was full of danger and misfortune, headaches and prayers. Look at him, it was only eight in the morning and he had already been nearly kidnapped by a group of thugs. What next, he gets hit by a car that goes out of control?
