Ye Qiu had vanished for a month, during which Wei Ziqing flourished in the Capital City, feeling right at home. From politics to commerce, everywhere he went involved the elite and old estates, subtly poised to become a leading figure among the young gentry of the Capital City.
Thanks to Wei Ziqing's enough strength and smooth handling of affairs, coupled with support from the Liu family, his reputation in the complex waters of the Capital City had been on a continuous rise.
He had even gained considerable control over the Dragon Group, a fact that even old veterans and Mei Huiling found astonishing.
With this momentum, even if Ye Qiu were to return, the power of the Dragon Group would already be firmly in Wei Ziqing's hands; it would be too late.
