"Okay, I understand. I'll handle this."

After hanging up the phone, Cao Kun and his group had already arrived at the arrival gate.

"Boss, over here!"

Qian Haoran, who had been waiting for a long time by the arrival gate, immediately spotted Cao Kun and his group.

He was dressed impeccably today, and a Rolls-Royce Phantom with a Shanghai license plate followed behind him, making quite a grand entrance.

"Boss! I've been waiting for you like the stars and the moon!"

Qian Haoran scurried over and skillfully took the coat from Cao Kun's hand.

Everyone boarded the vehicles, and the convoy headed straight for the Peace Hotel on the Bund.

On the way, Qian Haoran complained, "Boss, you have no idea how big a commotion this auction has caused."

"Rich people from all over the country are flocking to Shanghai. Now, let alone suites in top-tier hotels, even slightly better five-star hotels are in high demand."

"Luckily, my cousin has some connections and managed to squeeze a Sassoon Presidential Suite out of the Peace Hotel's reservation list."

"Otherwise, we really will have to sleep under the bridge tonight."

Cao Kun chuckled: "Looks like your cousin is pretty awesome."

"Of course, I'll introduce you two another day," Qian Haoran said with a smile.

When the motorcade arrived at the Peace Hotel, Cao Kun, guided by the doorman, took the private elevator directly upstairs.

Pushing open the heavy mahogany door of the presidential suite, you are immediately enveloped in an atmosphere of luxury.

But he had no interest in appreciating the valuable antique furniture; his gaze fell directly on the beautiful figure in front of the French windows.

Qian Xining had been waiting here for quite some time.

Hearing the door open, she turned around.

Today, Qian Xining wore a dark blue backless evening gown.

The silk material clung to her body like flowing water, outlining the taut lines unique to her years of martial arts training.

Her long hair was casually draped over her shoulders, complementing her charming face.

Against the backdrop of the dazzling lights of the Bund outside the window, it was breathtakingly beautiful.

The two had not seen each other for more than a month.

Absence makes the heart grow fonder, and at this moment, it was as if an invisible spark had been ignited in the air.

Qian Xining's face instantly lit up with a smile when she saw Cao Kun.

Without any hesitation, she took long strides and rushed into Cao Kun's arms.

"My dear, you've come. I've missed you so much."

Qian Haoran, who was standing nearby, tactfully said, "Then I'll come and invite you all to dinner tonight."

After saying that, he left quickly.

Qian Xining was taken aback: "What about lunch?"

Cao Kun said, "Let's have lunch in our room. I'm hungry too."

After saying that, he pulled Qian Xining into the room.

……

3 PM.

Cao Kun watched Qian Xining listlessly arranging lunch and asked, "What's wrong? Doesn't it suit your taste?"

Qian Xining rolled her eyes at him: "My throat hurts, I don't want to eat."

Cao Kun: "..."

"You have a cold? You should take medicine right away."

Qian Xining: "..."

"Ugh, you're just asking the obvious."

"Hehehe...Here, have some plain porridge to nourish yourself."

……

The two ate and chatted casually, and the topic gradually turned to Qian Xining's cousin, Song Yuting.

Qian Xining has been spending the last few days with her cousin, and she feels particularly relaxed.

She smiled and said, "My cousin is amazing. She founded her own venture capital firm called Genting Capital."

Cao Kun paused, looked up at her, and his expression changed slightly.

He immediately recalled what Su Yue had reported earlier.

The company that holds a 20% stake in KK Live is Genting Investment.

Cao Kun laughed and said, "What a coincidence, I just happen to need to talk to Genting Investment about a business deal."

Qian Xining was stunned for a moment, then her eyes lit up: "That's perfect, I was going to see my cousin tomorrow anyway, I'll help you make the connection."

After she finished speaking, Qian Xining stretched out her slender, straight long legs from under the table.

"Let's not talk about your cousin for now. Wouldn't it be better if you spent more time with me?"

Cao Kun laughed and said, "I'm giving you time to rest, so don't beg for mercy later!"

Qian Xining: "..."

……

The next morning, when Cao Kun opened his eyes, Qian Xining was still snuggled in bed.

She was still sleepy, whimpering and grumbling, not wanting to get out of bed.

At this moment, Wang Meng knocked on the door and reported, "Boss, Young Master Qian Haoran is here. He says he has something to discuss with you."

When Cao Kun came downstairs, Qian Haoran was sitting in the living room drinking tea. As soon as he saw him, he stood up and said:

"Boss, I just got word that your Maybach G650 is all modified. Do you want to go check it out?"

Cao Kun immediately became interested: "Sure, I'd love to see what it's been changed to."

Upon hearing this, Qian Haoran immediately perked up: "Let's go then, the modification shop is nearby."

Without hesitation, the two drove together to the modification shop.

Before long, the convoy entered a huge industrial park.

Various luxury cars were parked inside and outside the factory, and many staff members were coming and going, appearing quite busy.

Qian Haoran pointed to the innermost construction area and laughed:

"This modification shop is also one of the businesses of the Qian family in Jiangnan, and it's also under my cousin's name, but he doesn't come here often."

As he spoke, he led Cao Kun further inside.

Within the designated area, the Maybach G650 sat quietly.

Its appearance has been completely renewed, like a sleeping beast about to be awakened.

Qian Haoran introduced Cao Kun as follows:

"Boss, because time is tight, and your requirements are mainly focused on safety features..."

"Therefore, the power system remains basically the same, except that two auxiliary fuel tanks have been added to improve the range."

"In addition, the engineers re-flashed a more aggressive ECU program to further increase horsepower output."

He patted the sturdy car door: "The most crucial modifications are in terms of safety."

"All the windows on the vehicle have been replaced with high-grade bulletproof glass."

"Lightweight hardened armor has also been added to the vehicle's body layers."

"It's no exaggeration to say that this is now a mobile fortress."

"At the same time, the interior space has also been upgraded for comfort."

"Especially between the driver's seat and the rear passenger seats, a soundproof partition has been installed."

"You only need to press a button in the back seat to raise the frosted glass."

"Completely isolate the view and sound from the front row to ensure absolute privacy."

Cao Kun sat inside and tried it out, then nodded in satisfaction.

Qian Haoran laughed upon seeing this:

"If you like it, boss, all the formalities have been completed, and you can drive it away today."

Just then, a slightly lazy voice came from behind.

"Hey, Xiao Hao? So this hastily modified car is yours?"

Qian Haoran was taken aback. Turning around and recognizing the person, his face lit up with joy, and he quickly called out, "Cousin! What brings you here?"

A young man in a white tailored suit walked over slowly with several of his men.

The young man was quite handsome.

However, his eyes and eyebrows were always raised high, and his gaze revealed an innate arrogance.

He was twirling two walnuts in his hand, looking down on everyone.
