After Bai Pojun left, people gradually dispersed. Some wanted to make connections with Tang Ye because they knew if Bai Jiacheng's promise to give Tang Ye the property rights to Swan Lake was true, it would be in their best interests to be polite to Tang Ye; otherwise, they might even be kicked out by him. More importantly, given Tang Ye's impressive identity, it wouldn't just be about making a friend—getting on his good side to become one of his subordinates would be great too!
However, they didn't quite dare to approach. The ruthless manner in which Tang Ye had hit Bai Pojun was nothing like his current amiable and smiling demeanor. Unsure of Tang Ye's temper and fearing to provoke his anger, they hesitated, worried about who would they turn to if their heads were smashed in. Therefore, everyone decided to wait and see, and would try to build a relationship with Tang Ye once it was confirmed that he indeed had taken over Swan Lake.
