With Ding Hao's soft shout, the music and dancing stopped instantly, and the group of dancers consciously retreated.

Not far away, a room's door opened, and two men and one woman walked out. The lady who walked out was none other than Liu Xiaoqian.

Liu Xiaoqian wore a light yellow embroidered cheongsam, the collar opened up to form a small circle, which was tied with a string to make it seem that the current Liu Xiaoqian was not exaggerating at all.

The cheongsam girl beside Ding Hao also left with the middle-aged man in front of his. There were only four people left on the second floor.

Liu Xiaoqian walked over with a smile, extended a slender finger and pulled Ding Hao's right hand towards the private room.

The middle-aged man and the old man sized up Ding Hao in front of them, their eyes filled with praise.

"He is neither arrogant nor impetuous, he is not swayed by beauty, he is rich and powerful, he is a genius, he truly belongs to the upper class!" This was their evaluation of the previous scene.

Inside the private room, Ding Hao was happily chatting with the three of them, as if they were old friends who had known each other for a long time.

The middle-aged man was Liu Yang, the chairman of Liu Yang's department store, and the elder was Liu Xiaoqian's grandfather, Liu Ear.

"Little friend, may I ask if you have a girlfriend?" Liu Ear asked curiously.

Ding Hao's eyes slightly contracted as he faintly smiled and said, "There's a girlfriend in name."

"Oh? I wonder which clan's girl it is that can become the girlfriend of the Young Master Ding? " Liu Ergao continued to ask.

"The daughter of the Canglan Third Master of Liu's, Liu Yun." Ding Hao slowly said.

Hearing this, Liu Erdao and Liu Yang's faces changed slightly, the Third Master of Liu's s' reputation was extremely resounding in the Cang Lan City, and could not be compared to their own Liu Family.

"So you're the daughter of the Third Master of Liu's, but with your status, having only one girl beside you is a bit too shabby. If you don't mind, my Xiaoqian can accompany you by your side, it doesn't matter if you have a rank." Liu De stared at Ding Hao with interest and spoke slowly.

"Cough, cough …" The teacup that Ding Hao had just picked up swayed slightly, and a few drops of tea spilled out. He forcefully suppressed the churned blood in his heart, and after calming down, drank the entire cup of tea.

This old man actually didn't mind if his daughter followed him to become famous. With Liu Xiaoqian's beauty and intelligence, he did not lack the pursuit of males.

Was this really Liu Xiaoqian's biological grandfather?

"You can rest assured, we are not greedy for your assets, but because you have saved my life and Xiaoqian also has a good impression of you, so we will tell you this. If you are worried, you can sign an undivided property contract." Liu Ergao hurriedly said.

Liu Xiaoqian's beautiful face slightly blushed, and the eyes she looked at Ding Hao with revealed the hope of a little girl.

"I am not worried about the money. Rather, if I do this, Xiaoqian will definitely suffer. After all, a woman's reputation is the most important. Ding Hao explained.

"I... I don't mind. " Liu Xiaoqian muttered to herself.

"Ca?" "So straightforward, so direct, is this the straightforward nature of the young women of the new generation?" Ding Hao was slightly taken aback, and did not quite recover from his shock.

Just as Ding Hao was thinking about how to reject, the door opened with a clank.

"Xiaoqian, why didn't you notify me when you arrived at Hidden Dragon Villa?" A surprised sound rang out.

A young man dressed in casual clothes anxiously ran in, his gaze sweeping across the room, staring straight at Liu Xiaoqian, his eyes revealing a fiery gaze.

"Sir, we are talking about something right now. Please don't make a fuss." Seeing the man who ran in, Liu Xiaoqian said in a deep voice.

"Talking?" The young man's gaze swept across Ding Hao who was seated at the side. In his mind, he was pondering about whether he had an impression of this person, and in the end, a look of disdain appeared in his eyes.

"My grandfather's good friend has come over. They are currently sparring with their calligraphy. I heard that you came to the Hidden Dragon Villa and specifically invited you and the elders to come over and take a look." The young man continued.

"Your grandfather?" After Liu Xiaoqian heard this, she was secretly shocked in her heart.

By the side, the expressions of Liu Yang and Liu Erdao also changed. This youth's grandfather was the owner of Hidden Dragon Villa, Xiong Yinloong!

"Young Master Ding, can you come with us?" Liu Ergao thought for a moment in his mind. Not only could he not offend the Lord of Hidden Dragon Villa, but he also couldn't offend the young man in front of him. After weighing the pros and cons, he could only compromise.

Ding Hao's face revealed a calm smile, and said slowly: I am actually interested in calligraphy, and am willing to go with you.

Hearing Ding Hao's words, Liu Er secretly heaved a sigh of relief, and brought Ding Hao to follow the youth in front of them and left the place.

Although Xiong Kuan was unhappy, but seeing that the Liu Family brought a person to entertain them, he did not reject, hence he was able to chat with Xiaoqian and increase their relationship was not a big deal.

All along the way, Xiong Kuan had been by Liu Xiaoqian's side, talking non-stop, chattering non-stop like a chatterbox.

However, Liu Xiaoqian didn't seem to care at all. From time to time, she would look at Ding Hao, who was unconcerned about everything, with a trace of sadness in his eyes.

"Didn't you see that I was being pestered and didn't even know to come and help me? Could it be that you're afraid of the power backing him?" Liu Xiaoqian sighed inwardly.

Not long after, everyone arrived at Hidden Dragon Villa's Hidden Dragon Courtyard. This place was located on the peak of the mountain, near the dragon's mouth.

Walking into the Hidden Dragon Courtyard, he found himself surrounded by neatly cut potted trees. The sounds of birds chirping and the fragrance of flowers filled the air with a sense of tranquility.

"We're almost there, right ahead." Xiong Kuan said.

Ding Hao's gaze casually swept across the surroundings, and secretly sized up the layout. It was no wonder that the master of this place had such a noble status; one could tell that he was not an ordinary person just from the layout of the garden.

But to him, so what if his background was deep?

I have plenty of money!

With the System in hand, the world is mine!

I am Ding Hao, the cool and aloof Ding Hao!

Money can make the devil work, money can make the stone speak, I am the owner of money!

Very quickly, two simple long tables appeared in Ding Hao's line of sight. Beside the tables, two elders squatted with brushes in their hands, and began to dance on top of the xuan paper.

At this time, Ding Hao's eyes lit up, one of the elderly men was the one he met halfway down the mountain, could this be a coincidence from the legends?

After the time it took to burn an incense stick had passed, the two elders called out the last stroke of the incense stick at the same time and signed off.

"Eh? Kuang'er, you brought a friend over? " the white-haired old man in front of him asked.

"Grandfather, Xiaoqian and Uncle Liu are currently on vacation at Hidden Dragon Villa, so I invited them over to see your calligraphy skills." Xiong Kuan respectfully said when he saw the old man asking him.

"Greetings, Senior Hidden Dragon."

"Hello, brother Hidden Dragon."

The three Liu family members respectfully called out.

But Ding Hao was not moved, his eyes revealed a look of curiosity, he walked over and looked at the work that the two had just finished writing.

Xiong Yinloong was suspicious, this strange young man actually dared to be disrespectful to him, could it be that he was a young and reckless person?

"bad boy, if you don't greet my grandfather, do you know who this person is?!" Xiong Kuan shouted in anger.

"Young Master Kuan, this is the first time Young Master Ding has met Senior Hidden Dragon. Please forgive me for my presumptuousness." Liu Ergao hurriedly said.

Ding Hao's expression remained indifferent, his gaze sweeping across the two sculptures, and finally stopping in front of Xiong Yinloong's work. He shook his head helplessly: "Sigh, what a pity …."
