Rebirth at the Start: This Fate is Too Explosive!

Chapter 192 Damn it, Qin Kun, something's not right with you!

After introducing Qin Fei, Qin Kun turned to another young man with a slightly aloof demeanor and understated yet impeccably tailored clothes: "This is Fang Yu, from the Fang family of Jinling. The only son of Jinling's richest man. Don't let his refined appearance fool you, he's got a wild streak at heart."

Fang Yu was tall and slender, wearing a well-tailored light gray suit, with a faint smile on his face, looking like a typical elite young master.

There are many different opinions about his background on the internet.

He's said to be the only son of a steel tycoon, and rumors circulate that his father controls a vast underground cash flow...

In short, there are all sorts of versions, but in his previous life, before Ye Fan was reborn, he happened to learn about the other party's family background.

My parents made their fortune as junket operators.

Back then, relying on connections and courage, I grew my small business into a multi-million dollar fortune.

However, in this results-oriented era, having immense wealth is the true measure of power.

Heroes are indeed not judged by their origins.

Ye Fan extended his hand, smiling politely: "Ye Fan."

Fang Yu gave Ye Fan a sharp look, then extended his hand to shake Ye Fan's: "Fang Yu."

Their palms touched briefly before separating, thus establishing their acquaintance.

Qin Kun then pointed to the remaining two: "This Lin Feng's family is in the real estate business; they acquired several plots of land in Jiangbei. And that Wang Zhui over there comes from a family that runs a jewelry business; he's a pro at jade and diamonds, and he has so many treasures he could open a museum."

After the introduction.

Qin Kun said to Ye Fan, "It's about time. Let's get on the ship first and talk about the rest!"

Ye Fan looked up and saw a snow-white yacht, about thirty meters long, moored on the riverbank ahead. Soft LED lights flickered on the deck, and the hull had smooth lines, like a lurking silver shark.

He had expected some exciting new activities for today's event, but it turned out to be a yacht party.

This thing is extremely common in the circles of rich kids.

On the banks of the Yangtze River, exposed to the wind and sun, I had little interest.

Qin Kun caught a glimpse of disappointment in his eyes, quickly blinked, and whispered, "Don't worry, Ye Fan. You'll see once you're on the boat. This isn't just about drinking and boating. Aren't you obsessed with supercars? There's a surprise coming up that will make your eyes pop."

Seeing Qin Kun still keeping things mysterious, Fang Yu chuckled and revealed the answer directly: "Old Qin loves to be cryptic. Let me be frank, there's another group on board besides us. Today is actually a semi-public small-scale exchange of rare items. Some things, like rare supercars, especially limited editions, are impossible to find on the market, but you might have a chance to come across them here."

He looked at Ye Fan, his eyes filled with the tacit understanding of those who share the same path, "Those who know will naturally understand."

Ye Fan's eyes lit up slightly: "Oh? That's interesting. I ordered a LaFerrari a while ago, and the waiting time is a full six months. It's driving me crazy."

"You like LaFerrari too?" Fang Yu's eyes instantly lit up with enthusiasm, as if he had found a kindred spirit.

Ye Fan's lips curled into a masculine smile: "Mechanical beasts, speed aesthetics, who can resist? It's just a man's romance."

"A kindred spirit!" The aloofness on Fang Yu's face melted instantly, and his tone became noticeably warmer. "We must have a good chat later!"

He went on to explain in detail, "Our circle regularly holds these underground auction-like gatherings. Today is one of them. People will bring out their most treasured possessions to bid, and the highest bidder wins. So it's not just supercars; rare items that you can't usually see on the market or even circulate in the market can be found here. Information asymmetry and connections are the hard currency here."

Ye Fan suddenly understood, secretly praising: This is brilliant! The rich second generation doesn't lack money, but rather unique and scarce goods; while some collectors who urgently need cash also need a safe and efficient channel to convert their assets into cash. This yacht becomes an excellent, private trading platform.

Both parties were happy with the transaction.

His smile became more genuine: "I see! That's quite an achievement! I really thought it was just a regular yacht party. Looks like I was quite ignorant."

Fang Yu waved his hand dismissively: "You're still young, just started university, and it's normal that you haven't encountered these things yet. I was the same way back then, I was dragged in without really knowing what was going on, and when I opened my eyes, I saw that it was full of treasures. Take your time, as you get to know the circle, you'll naturally become familiar with it."

Qin Kun, feigning displeasure, punched Fang Yu lightly: "Hey! Old Fang! You're so unfair! I was planning to keep it from Ye Fan until he got on the ship and saw all the treasures in the cabin. His jaw dropping in shock would be hilarious! I could even take a picture of his shocked face and use it as a meme! That expression would be so funny, a source of endless laughs for him. But you just opened your mouth, and you ruined it all!"

"What hasn't Ye Fan seen? He just doesn't know the details of today's event." Fang Yu retorted, "If you treat him like this, be careful when you get on the ship. He'll probably pin you down and beat you up. With his build, he could probably grab you with one hand."

Qin Kun looked at Fang Yu and laughed, "Isn't there you? Anyway, this is our territory, we can do whatever we want to Ye Fan."

Fang Yu said calmly, "I don't think even if the two of us go at it together, we'll still be at his mercy!"

"That makes sense..." Qin Kun chuckled awkwardly.

I guess I won't have the chance to take an unflattering photo of Ye Fan anymore.

Upon hearing this, Ye Fan deliberately cracked his wrist, making a slight clicking sound, and said with a playful smile, "Now that you mention it, I'm actually quite interested. Otherwise, just drinking and looking at the river view with you guys isn't very exciting."

Qin Kun immediately feigned a heartbroken expression, exaggeratingly accusing, "Ye Fan! What you said hurt the brothers' feelings! What are women? They're just embellishments! It's the interaction between men that's real fun and true camaraderie!"

"Damn it, Qin Kun, something's off with you!" Fang Yu looked at Qin Kun warily, then turned to Ye Fan and said, "You better watch out for this kid. I'm fine, but you're so handsome and young. If Qin Kun sets his sights on you, things could get really bad!"

Ye Fan immediately adopted a defensive posture and said seriously, "Tsk, I always felt that his tone was a bit too... enthusiastic when he called me yesterday to ask me out. So that's the crux of the matter!"

Qin Kun was so enraged by their back-and-forth banter that he jumped up and down, his face flushed red: "Damn it! In broad daylight! Under the clear sky! You two actually teamed up to smear my pure brotherhood! When I said men play around, I meant drinking, bragging, and seeing who can pee the farthest, okay?! Can't you think a little more healthily?"

His indignant defense made Fang Yu and Ye Fan burst into laughter again, and even Lin Feng and Wang Zhui, who hadn't said much, couldn't help but chuckle.
