“He’s my friend, Zane, show some respect!”Anna's face was covered in frost as she stood beside Jasper without hesitation and chided Zane.Zane brushed the tip of his nose, paying no heed to Anna’s words.When he swept his gaze at Jasper's luggage with an air freight label, his expression changed slightly.“You’re from the Mainland?" Zane sneered."It turns out you’re from the Mainland. No wonder I’ve never seen you around here. What’s wrong? Trying to come here and make a fortune? If you want to make money, we can give you some, but you need to know your place. Harbor City is nothing like your poor Mainland, you hear me?”“I thought that most of the young people in Harbor City are knowledgeable, have class, and are talented like Anna. Turns out it isn’t the case,” Jasper said faintly.Even in 2020, there were still many self-opinionated people who thought they were superior and thus looked down on Mainlanders just because they were from Harbor City.Zane's complexion changed a

When Henry heard that, he stopped clamoring at once.He knew that there must be a limit to his mischief. As an aristocratic family, the Laws had the strictest parenting style among other top-notch aristocratic families in Harbor City. The seniors in the family had all been displeased with his behavior from a long time ago.Nevertheless, asking Henry to listen to the Mainlander was worse than killing him.Henry was about to make a trip to Mandarin Oriental Hotel to warn Jasper against assuming unwanted authority when he bumped into Zane downstairs.“You met him?" Henry did not answer, but instead, asked a question.Zane nodded and scowled. “He seems to be very close to Anna."Henry smiled when he saw how envious and furious Zane was.Many of these rich and noble trust fund babies in Harbor City were interested in his sister.Zane was merely one of them, one that was more cowardly too.Zane’s father, Bob Lancaster, had only four listed companies under his name. He could not even

“Pfft… Hahahaha.”Anna could not help falling on the couch laughing.Henry's smile froze on his face. He turned his head and stared at Jasper, seemingly trying to confirm whether Jasper was serious about it.“There’s no need to stare at me. I can tell you for sure that I’m being serious.”Jasper shrugged and said, "I know you’re very unwilling. After all, you’re an adult who’s accustomed to being free, and to suddenly have your peer, someone who’s even a few years younger than you, guide you, you will feel more or less humiliated.“Similarly, I’m in a tough position myself. It’s really awkward for me to have a student who’s older than me.“So if you can persuade your dad and your grandfather, I will gladly skip this errand.”As Henry listened to Jasper, he knew what he meant.“What if you use my dad and the rest to pressure me?" Henry said with a scowl.“We’re not trying to pressure you. We just want you to know that right now, you can’t resist, nor do you have a choice. You c

Jasper looked at Henry and said in a mild tone, “That’s the difference between you and me."Henry was sullen, feeling very upset and itching to punch Jasper in the face, but he had to admit… Jasper had touched a sore spot.He would be nothing if he left the Laws. It was true that as soon as his credit card was canceled, he would have no way to pay for gas. It just so happened that his car was running out of gas now… When he saw Henry’s conflicted expression, Jasper tossed him a bait in a timely manner. “If you follow me and learn from me before I leave Harbor City, then I will not only turn you into your father’s right-hand man but when it comes to trading, no youngsters in Harbor City will be your match either.”"Really?" Sure enough, Henry was hooked.Trust fund babies were humans too. Henry was not naturally bad, nor did he want to be a little bug. If given the chance, he was eager to improve more than anyone.Judging from his past life, the future Henry would come to his sen

The next day, Jasper did not leave the hotel at all.He had been watching Harbor City’s entertainment news channel.Since he had decided to enter the entertainment industry starting in Harbor City, it was necessary for him to learn about this era’s entertainment news.Although he still had memories from his past life, Jasper was not God, hence it was impossible for him to recall what every celebrity did at this point in time.After a long day, Jasper was considered to have gained something because he finally had a preliminary understanding of the entertainment industry! At least his plan to enter the entertainment industry was much clearer now.In the afternoon, Henry came to pick Jasper up for lunch.It was already two o'clock. Others would be having afternoon tea by now.However, it was not strange at all for a trust fund baby like Henry to have lunch at two o'clock.When he arrived at the hotel’s entrance, Jasper immediately saw Henry's frivolous bearing as he stood next to

Although it was meant to be a private room for dining, this was actually a massive suite.There was a dining table in the center of the living room, a couch area behind it, and washrooms and lounges on both sides. This was way better than a five-star hotel’s presidential suite.Sitting on the couch inside were two young men talking and laughing with each other.Jasper was not surprised to see Zane here.Back at Mandarin Oriental Hotel yesterday, Henry had appeared immediately after Zane left. They were from the same circle and both of them disliked him, hence it was not surprising to know that they were plotting something together.However, sitting next to Zane was someone he was familiar with—Zayden Hanks!Jasper was astounded to see him here!When Zayden saw Jasper, his expression was as excited as if he was watching the national football team making it to the World Cup.Zayden had come to Harbor City with the last bit of hope and resources from Sylva, and his greatest backer

“Hey kid, don’t get so arrogant just because you’ve made a tiny achievement. This is Harbor City, not your remote and desolate Mainland. You have to pay a price for being arrogant here.”Zane narrowed his eyes at Jasper, sneering and saying unhurriedly.“You look down on rich kids, huh? You’d better listen up then. I’m a rich kid! My family has assets worth tens of billions of Harbor Dollars and four listed companies, what about you? You really think you can throw your weight around after toying with the Hanks, huh?"Standing next to him, Zayden was thrilled. He was itching to scream at the top of his lungs to express his happy feelings.It felt great to see Jasper being humiliated!“You hear that, Jasper? This is Harbor City! Young Master Zane can squash you with just one finger!" Zayden let out a burst of smug laughter.Next to them, Henry crossed his arms in front of his chest while sitting at the table and eating the fruit on the platter. He had one leg over the other as he w

“What is the b*stard doing?” Zane frowned as he asked Zayden.Zayden let out a sneer and said, “God knows. He’s just trying to seek trouble by struggling with all his means. In a while, let’s see what tricks he has up his sleeve.”After a moment, John’s slightly nervous voice was heard. “All done. Say, which stock?”“Megan Company. Set the current market price as the target price. Purchase all stocks with full positions,” Jasper ordered calmly.His voice was not just heard through the phone to John but even echoed throughout the entire room.“Megan Company? Young Master Lancaster, isn’t that your family’s property?” Zayden turned around, feeling suspicious. However, he found out that Zane was smiling as if he was about to go crazy.“Hahaha, what a joke. How dare this brat from Mainland, who has never even seen the world, think of making a move on my Megan Company? Sure, show me five billion, or else, stop humiliating yourself.”Zayden came back to his senses and said through man
